Chapter Seventy-Two
When the registration of the four Xianjia ferries and the four courtyard gates was completed, a full four hours had passed.
"There are a total of 94,382 students who have come to the Immortal Academy this time, and if you add many who are still on the way, at least 100,000."
The elders of the Affairs Hall reported to Wu Mingzi, the head of the Immortal Academy, who was flanked by the deacons and elders of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Pingtian Sword Sect.
Even if the three of them had been mentally prepared, they were still very shocked to hear this number at this moment.
A sect that has existed for more than 2,000 years, and the total number of sects has reached 10,000 people, which is a big step.
After that, if the number of people continues to grow endlessly, but the sect does not grow with it, then sooner or later it will be overwhelmed, and resources will not be allocated, and in the long run, even if there are no external enemies, it will collapse on its own.
The Pingtian Sword Sect has been handed down from 10,000 years ago to the present, and the background is terrifying, just sitting in the sect on weekdays, there are four sword immortals.
However, there are only more than 10,000 people in the Pingtian Sword Sect, and this is still counting the disciples that the Sword Sect sends out to various places every year to guard affiliated sects or small countries.
Of course, these small countries are not like the Great Zhou Dynasty, they are purely influenced by the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the sect is clothed in the clothes of the state.
One of the reasons why there are few people in the Pingtian Sword Sect is that it is difficult to get started with the sword, unlike ordinary qi practitioners, who only need to refine qi into the body, and the way of the sword has requirements for sword intent, sword heart, swordsmanship, swordsmanship, etc., resulting in a very small number of people.
The second is that there was a split rebellion in the Pingtian Sword Sect four thousand years ago, and the number of the Pingtian Sword Sect at that time reached 40,000, which was extremely prosperous, and the entire Southern Lu Yongzhou almost bowed down to the vassals.
However, prosperity is only on the surface, and it has rotted internally.
The three Sword Immortals united their subordinates and 20,000 disciples to try to split the Pingtian Sword Sect.
After a tragic battle between the two sides, the blood of the three sword immortals was spilled in the sky, and the situation was critical, and they were about to lose to the separatist forces.
In the end, a clone of the first sect master of the Pingtian Sword Sect came forward and killed the last remaining sword immortal with a sword.
The 40,000-strong Pingtian Sword Sect was reduced to only 10,000 people, so the original sect master's clone established a rule that the sect size could only be 10,000 people, and left a sword light that could be used to kill rebels and foreign enemies.
Therefore, to support the cultivation of 100,000 people, the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Pingtian Sword Sect must join forces.
Wu Mingzi, the head of the courtyard, was the first to recover from the shock, waved his hand, and his voice was loud.
"Ring the bell and call the students."
While!
While!
While!
Three more bells rang to inform all students to assemble.
The crowd of black and oppressive, noisy voices, divided into four areas, surrounded by a square in the middle.
In the center of the square, there is a jade platform made of white marble, on the high platform, Wu Mingzi stands in the center, on both sides are two deacon elders, and behind are several elders and various hall masters.
"Everyone!" Wu Mingzi, the head of the courtyard, spoke, his voice was loud, calm and powerful.
For a moment the noisy crowd fell silent.
"Old man Immortal Academy, head Wu Mingzi."
"Thinking that since you have entered the Immortal Courtyard, then you must have an incomparable yearning for the long immortal journey, and you must not be willing to be mortal, then the Immortal Courtyard will be your best choice."
"In the Immortal Academy, you will not cut off your cultivation path because of your qualifications, but you must also do what you can, so I will test your qualifications next, so that you can have a number in your hearts."
Wu Mingzi's immortal wind bone, with a wave of his big sleeves, a ball of light appeared on the white jade platform, and nearly 100,000 beams of light shot out, accurately falling on everyone's hands.
Each person has a token in their hand, all of them are of the same color, and the material is like wood but it is not.
"The tokens in your hands will be a necessity in the fairy courtyard in the future, everything needs tokens, remember to put them away. Well, the tests begin. ”
"Wow! You see, the token is shining! ”
Someone exclaimed at the people around him, obviously mortal, but no one laughed at them.
A soft glow erupts from the token, enveloping the holder's hand.
"How do I feel about this light...... So comfortable? “
A soft light enters their bodies and tests their cultivation qualifications.
After a while, some people have a light in the sky, some people form a vision, a sea of fire, and the water is all over the sky, and there are also people who have a faint light, just like fireflies......
Most people are just a curtain of light that shrouds themselves, in a variety of colors.
The grander the scene, the better the cultivation qualifications, and if there is a vision, it means that the qualifications are excellent in a certain aspect.
If the light is weak, the cultivation qualification is very poor, but this does not mean that you can't cultivate to the highest level, but the difficulty will be far beyond ordinary people.
Naturally, there are also poor children who can't cultivate, and they don't have the slightest light, and even when the soft light in the token enters their bodies, they don't even feel it.
For a while, some people broke down and cried, some laughed uncontrollably, some hung their heads, some were high-spirited, some were unwavering, and some were gritting their teeth with hatred......
The world is full of all kinds of things, and it is all revealed at this moment.
Everyone's demeanor was fully seen by Wu Mingzi, the head of the courtyard, who put his hands behind his back and didn't say a word.
He has seen too many geniuses, and waste wood is everywhere, even if some qualifications are really amazing, he does not have the slightest emotional fluctuation in his heart.
Just wait until everyone is over, wave their hands lightly, and all the sights disappear, whether it is light or vision, and suddenly only the restless crowd remains.
"I've seen my qualifications, and the old man knows that you have different moods, but you must know that cultivation qualifications don't determine everything."
"As long as the Dao heart is firm and the cultivation continues, even if the qualifications are extremely poor, you can still go to a high place."
Under Bai Yugao's stage, the restless crowd quieted down, and they all looked up at Wu Mingzi with hopeful eyes.
"There was once someone who cultivated to Tianhe for three years, during which he never had a defeat, and then he lost a game, which caused the Dao heart to collapse, and since then he has been in a slump and has been lost to everyone."
"Some people are still in the early stage of cultivating spirits for ten years, and his friends and even juniors surpass him one by one, and he loses more than he wins in half his life, but he never cares, his Taoist heart is firm, and he does not stop cultivating, and then he becomes a blockbuster, far surpassing the geniuses of his peers."
"Some people are born with a wasted body, unable to cultivate, have adventures when they are desperate, become immortals against the ordinary, and then practice for a long time."
Wu Mingzi paused slightly and glanced around the audience.
"Therefore, on the road to the avenue, qualification is only a shortcut to provide an ethereal shortcut, and it is difficult to say whether it can go to the end.
On this road, there are many factors such as Dao heart, heart, and luck, so don't trap yourself in qualifications. ”
Wu Mingzi's words were encouraging, and many students with middle and lower qualifications were very useful, and secretly vowed to practice diligently in their hearts.
"Next, the two deacons and elders will take you to the hospital."
The immortal courtyard is divided into two domains, east and west, and there are four courtyards in the two domains, namely the Qi Refining Courtyard, the Soul Cultivation Courtyard, the Xuantai Courtyard and the Tianhe Courtyard, and the area of the four courtyards is reduced in turn, and the four courtyards have a total of 16 districts.
Nearly 100,000 students are assigned to these 16 districts.
