Chapter 108: The Disciple Gathering Conference
On this day, on the large square in the center of Ziyang City, there was a sea of people, but it was clear and not chaotic at all.
On the east side of the square, there are all True Martial Realm martial artists, all of whom are participating in the selection of the royal family.
On the west side of the square, most of them are beginner martial arts realm martial artists, and occasionally one or two true martial arts realm martial artists are to join the Dongyang Sect.
On the edge of the square, two major recruitment criteria have been announced.
The royal family recruits guest secretaries, and they must reach the true martial arts realm, and then choose innocent warriors. This so-called innocence, as long as it is not notorious, the royal family mainly values whether it is related to the rest of the power, especially those first-class power, which may threaten the power of the royal family.
If there is a power behind it, it must rely on the royal family and resolutely support the power of the royal family, and the royal family is usually these people. This time, it is really the royal warriors who have lost too much, so they will recruit people from all over the country, but this time it is mainly for lone warriors.
When Dongyang Sect recruits disciples, it first looks at the cultivation qualifications, and then finds out the identity. As long as it is a person from Dongchen Kingdom, it will be recruited if it is not a way to become notorious.
For the determination of qualifications, Dongyang Sect also gave several criteria:
Under the age of twenty, if you reach the True Martial Realm cultivation, you can become an elite disciple of the sect.
Under the age of eighteen, he cultivated to reach the peak of the early martial realm and could become a core disciple of the sect.
Under the age of twenty, if you cultivate to reach the peak of the first martial realm, you can become a disciple of the inner sect of the sect.
Under the age of twenty, if you cultivate to reach the fourth level of the first martial realm, participate in a martial arts competition and defeat an opponent, you can become a disciple of the outer sect of the sect.
The first three directly look at the qualifications of the warriors, and the last one is to select apprentices from the perspective of the warrior's combat power. Of course, it is inaccurate to judge a person's qualifications solely from the relationship between cultivation and age. Because there is a big difference in the resources enjoyed by lone martial artists and powerful martial artists when cultivating.
But the Dongyang Sect does not have a measuring ruler to test attributes, only a spiritual weapon to test bone age. This is also due to the lack of a formation for refining spiritual weapons, and the value of spiritual weapons that test bone age and attributes is not much different, but because of the relationship between refining formations. As a result, in the entire Northeast Region, there is no measuring ruler, and the spirit weapon that tests the bone age can be one for each city.
Because of various conditions, there are not too many warriors in the demarcated area on the square, and it is even more crowded outside the demarcated area.
Especially the children of those families, they are accompanied by the elders of the family, and these people are still waiting outside.
Elite, core, inner gate, and outer gate are the four major levels of Dongyang Sect disciples. The elite disciple is actually the True Martial Realm disciple among the core disciples, but because he is not very old, he has the potential to reach the sixth layer of the True Martial Realm, and even impact the Spirit Martial Realm.
Elite disciples have great potential, and their status in the sect is not lower than that of ordinary elders.
Since he participated in the Dongyang Sect's apprenticeship conference, Wu Feng was also observing the rest of the martial artists, and he found some familiar faces in the crowd.
Ye Yan, Jiang Li, and Wang Jiang from Mingyang City, and Ouyang Xu, Zhong Shan, and Tie Long from Mingyang City, were all martial artists that Wu Feng had ever seen. It's just that Mingyang City comes to Nanyang City, which is located in the easternmost part of Dongchen Kingdom, whether it is news transmission or warriors coming, it is much slower. Wu Feng now sees the coming warriors, all of them have the power behind them.
And this time, no one from the martial family came, Wu Feng only regarded the family as a martial artist from the Lingwu Realm, and the relationship between the Dongyang Sect and the royal family was not easy to handle, so it was not suitable for anyone to join the Dongyang Sect.
But he didn't know that the Dongyang Sect and the royal family, this time to deal with the white wolf beast tide, it can be said that it is a heavy loss, and now they want to suppress the martial family, and they have no strength at all, after all, there are martial artists in the martial arts realm, which is a complete deterrent.
Moreover, the martial family has the mystery of the ancestor to explore the Lingwu realm, and now the martial artists of the whole clan are dedicated to the family, hoping to get the guidance of the ancestor one day, and no one wants to come far to join the Dongyang Sect. Because there are powerful warriors behind them, in the Dongyang Sect and the royal family, they are not completely trusted, and it is impossible to take power and get the best development.
"Fortunately, I had the foresight to learn that the Dongyang Sect was facing the recruitment of apprentices from all over the country, so I made a disguise of my appearance. Ye Mad and the others are not familiar with me, so they shouldn't recognize me. Seeing those acquaintances, Wu Feng thought in his heart.
After the arrival of the martial artists of the Dongyang Sect, the person in charge of the apprentices was also very simple, and did not say much, and directly stood on the high platform and shouted: "The standards for the acceptance of disciples in this sect have been posted, and those who can directly enter the sect can wait in line according to the test position." Those who are ready to participate in the competition and test their combat strength to become an outer disciple should wait on the side first. ”
The martial artists who came here naturally knew their own situation and understood the criteria for accepting apprentices, and they were no exception to this, and soon lined up neatly. There were a total of three test positions, and three spiritual weapons to test bone age were used, and the martial artists who participated in the test were lined up in three columns.
But Wu Feng was entangled at this time, and thought: "According to my age and cultivation, to calculate the cultivation qualifications, I can become a core disciple, but the core disciple will inevitably receive the attention of the sect, but it is not conducive to the purpose of my trip!"
"But if I hide my cultivation and just become an outer disciple, there will be many restrictions in the sect, and I won't be able to walk freely at that time, and if the ice cave is in an area that is forbidden for outer disciples, it will be even more troublesome."
Wu Feng weighed the pros and cons in his heart, he could hide his cultivation, but he couldn't change his bone age, and he only had two options: becoming an outer disciple and a core disciple.
Under the trade-off, Wu Feng still chose to become a core disciple, after all, there are too many restrictions on outer disciples.
As for the core disciples, they will receive attention, and he has nothing to worry about. After all, although he entered the Dongyang Sect with his own purpose, he was not spying on its secrets, nor would he do anything unfavorable to the sect.
After successfully entering the ice cave, with the cold level in it, naturally no one would pay attention to him, and he was not worried about the secret of the Yanmai being exposed.
The warriors who participated in the test were very clear about their situation, and all of them passed smoothly, and the test process was also very fast. But because of his previous hesitation, Wu Feng was at the back of the team, but he participated in the test at the back.
It was not the first time that Wu Feng had tested his bone age, and he took the initiative to drop blood on the special spirit weapon tested.
"Age sixteen, void seventeen, cultivation is the peak of the first martial realm, and you can become a core disciple. ”
A Dongyang Sect martial artist on the side, the old man who presided over the test, quickly reported Wu Feng's test results.
Wu Feng also passed smoothly and entered the next link: identity verification.
"Where do you come from, can anyone recommend it?" asked a Dongyang Sect martial artist, about the recommendation, it is mainly for those martial artists who have great power behind them, if it is not a great force, there is no qualification to recommend.
"The junior Feng Wu, from Beishan City, is a lone martial artist, and no one recommends him. Wu Feng replied respectfully, but reported the fake identity that he had thought of a long time ago.
"How can I prove your identity if I don't have anyone to recommend you?" the man continued.
"Some time ago, in Beishan City, where I am located, there was a white wolf beast tide, and everyone who is familiar with me died in the beast tide, and no one can prove my identity, but the seniors of your sect can go to investigate. Wu Feng looked natural and said frankly.
"Okay, then someone from the sect will investigate, and if there is no problem with the identity, it will definitely get the attention of the sect. The old man looked at Wu Feng, then waved his hand and said, "You go to the core disciple's team and wait first." ”
In this way, Wu Feng passed this test, and as for the investigation of his identity, it was none of his business.
Next, the martial artists who participated in the selection of the outer sect were tested, and then a competition was arranged, and the winner got the opportunity to join the sect.
Although by all those who qualify, the two-on-two battle chooses half of the winners, and there are a lot of unfairness. For example, the weak meet the weaker, and the strong meet the stronger
But the world of the warrior is like this, the warrior attaches great importance to chance, luck is also a kind of chance, if good luck to the weak, it is the opportunity to enter the sect.
For example, Wang Hu, who met Wu Feng, was nineteen years old, the fifth layer of the Initial Martial Realm, and among the martial artists who participated in the competition, he was also considered of medium strength, but he encountered an opponent of the sixth layer of the Initial Martial Realm, so he failed and had no chance with the Dongyang Sect.
And there is a beginner martial artist who has opened up eight meridians, and when he encounters an opponent of the fourth layer of beginner martial arts, he has only opened seven meridians, so he can defeat the opponent and become a disciple of the outer sect of Dongyang Sect.
This kind of thing is also extremely normal, and Wu Feng didn't think it was strange, but when he saw Wang Hu defeated, he was ready to comfort and persuade him.
But Wang Hu said very freely: "Brother, you don't have to say anything! my brother's cultivation qualifications are not good, and he is not interested in this, he only likes to explore for fun, if he joins the sect, he will not have freedom." ”
Since Wang Hu said so, Wu Feng didn't say anything more.
There are many martial artists who participated in the selection of Dongyang Sect's disciples, not one thousand, but seven or eight hundred.
The first batch of well-qualified ones were tested directly, naturally and quickly, and it only took half a day to complete. But this part of the people is only a very small part, there are seven elite disciples, thirty-one core disciples, and one hundred and ninety-seven inner disciples, a total of more than 200 people.
However, there are many martial artists who meet the selection of the outer sect and reach the fourth level of the initial martial realm under the age of twenty, and there are nearly 600 applicants in total.
The competition lasted for three days, and Wang Hu happened to be the top few people, and after the test was completed that afternoon, he had already competed, but he was unlucky.
In this way, Wu Feng still had two days to stay in Ziyang City, and Wu Feng first had a big drink with Wang Hu. Although they haven't known each other for a long time, both of them have the feeling of seeing each other late, and now they are about to separate, and they are drunk.
Then the night before going to Dongyang Sect, Wu Feng quietly went out of the city and put the dragon qi into the two beast rings.
On the evening of the third day, Wu Feng and other warriors who had entered the Dongyang Sect gathered on the square.
At this time, the disciples who participated in the election of the outer sect were also determined, a total of 280 people. Because of the random distribution of martial arts competitions, the fourth, fifth, and sixth layers of the junior martial realm among these people all accounted for more than 90 people each, and the distribution was relatively balanced.
Wu Feng originally thought that everyone was rushing to the Dongyang Sect together, but those people from the Dongyang Sect took them to a side hall of the palace, where there was actually a careful teleportation array that could be directly teleported to the Dongyang Sect.
Regarding the introduction of the teleportation array, Wu Feng was not unfamiliar at all, but it was the first time he had seen it, and he was going to teleport, and when the rest of the martial artists were curious, he was learning the use of the teleportation array.
Unlike Wu Feng Zhiludao's use of spirit jade as energy transmission, more than a dozen True Martial Realm martial artists input their internal qi into a ball of light, and use that ball of light as an energy source for transmission. But there is not much difference between the principle and the use of spiritual jade.
