Chapter 158: Recruiting New Acquaintances
"Entrance assessment?" Cheng Xue glanced at the light curtains in front of everyone, and caught a glimpse of a familiar figure flashing: "Sister Ning, they also want to participate?"
"Of course, we are a formal organization, there is no internal decision, there is no shady!" the head of the door glared and said solemnly, bluffing Cheng Xue for a moment.
Then, he smiled again and said with a pleasant face: "Do you want Xue'er to go and play, don't ask for rankings, focus on participation!"
Come on, the head of the sect began to fool again, Cheng Xue looked vigilant: "Don't go, I'm a Qi cultivation overhaul, how can I be as knowledgeable as these juniors who haven't yet introduced Qi into the body?"
Boss: "......"
The rest of the peak lord elders: "......"
Looking at each other, everyone burst into laughter, and the peak master elders present talked about their seniority, most of them were the same generation as Cheng Xue, they had already noticed this junior sister, and at this time, a smiling peak master spoke: "I wonder if this Qi cultivation overhaul can help us and others?"
This Sword Peak Peak Master, Cheng Xue has also seen it in the school, and the swordsmanship practice class is what he taught, and he loves to spur students to practice swords.
Cheng Xue was more familiar with him, she waved her hand and said weakly: "No matter what you are, I don't want to practice swords at this time!"
Lian Jian couldn't help but shake his head and laugh, this golden pimple on the Flying Cliff Peak, her father is known as the "Sword Fairy", but she is in the way of the sword, endowed with average, and a little lazy, the name of "Sword Fairy", I am afraid that it will be lost!
Cheng Xue didn't think it was a pity, the ruler was short and the inch was long, and the best choice was made, otherwise, the effort would be thankless, and he wouldn't want to succeed.
After laughing for a while, Cheng Xue brought the topic back to the entrance assessment: "What kind of charter is this entry assessment?"
The head stopped the smile on his face and explained to her: "Everyone goes to the Secret Realm of Trials to obtain mutated spirit berries, and after three days, they will be ranked according to the number of mutated spirit berries in their hands, and the top 1,000 disciples will be selected!"
The Spirit Berry Fruit is a low-level Spirit Fruit, but the Mutated Spirit Berry Fruit is a middle-level Spirit Fruit, and its core is one of the materials for refining Zhuji Dan.
"If someone brought a mutated spirit berry fruit on his body in advance, wouldn't it let him take advantage of the loophole?" Cheng Xue frowned.
Hearing this, an elder suddenly coughed lightly, Cheng Xue followed the prestige, felt a little familiar, and couldn't help but say: "This senior brother seems to have seen it somewhere!"
Seeing this, the elder began to blow his beard and glare, and as soon as this appearance came out, the girl slapped her head and hurriedly saluted obediently: "Hello sir!"
This is the teacher who specializes in teaching Lingzhi knowledge in the school, and he is often so angry that he blows his beard and glares at him, Cheng Xue has almost never seen his normal expression, no wonder she didn't recognize it before.
The elder was a little hated that iron could not be made of steel and said: "The breath that Lingzhi has just picked can be seen at a glance compared to the breath that has been stored for too long, you are in this class!"
He let out a long sigh and said no more.
Cheng Xue sighed with him, spread her hands by the way, and said helplessly: "No way, Mr.'s class is too hypnotic, I tried to listen carefully, but I fell asleep as soon as I was serious!"
The head coughed and signaled not to go too far, Cheng Xue retracted her words stupidly, looked at the light curtain in front of her and said uncertainly: "Is this a retrospective mirror?"
"It's just an introductory assessment, where can I use such a high-level magic weapon, reflection technique!" The head said speechlessly, this girl has been in school for two years, and she looked quite clever when she was in school, but now she has become such a person who doesn't learn and has no skills?!
Compared with the Reflection Mirror, it can indeed only be regarded as a spell, as long as the formation is placed in the place that needs to be observed, you can clearly see the picture of the formation coverage area on the shadow wall, which is very suitable for disciple trial assessment.
Cheng Xue felt a little embarrassed, she couldn't help but think of something to save the bottom, looking left and right, she pointed to the picture on the shadow wall and said, "Look, someone has found the mutated spirit berry!"
Everyone looked up, only to see a person holding an ordinary spirit berry in his hand, and left happily, it seemed that he was a child from the mortal world, and the breath of the mutated spirit berry fruit could not be distinguished.
But the guy in front of him, who grew up in Xianmen, why can't he see the difference between them?!
The elder who taught them the spiritual plant was heartbroken and said, "Why did I agree to be a teacher, I won't be able to guarantee the evening!"
"Laugh, laugh!" Cheng Xue looked at the eyes of the second ancestor of the elder peak, and couldn't help wiping the sweat on his forehead, and said.
It's embarrassing, and now she decided to kill without making a sound, but the head didn't seem to want to let her go: "Xue'er, you see that Zhao Ning and they have all gone to participate in the assessment, do you want to join them?"
"It's really boring!" Cheng Xue couldn't help nodding, and in an instant, the atmosphere on the field changed greatly, cold, she couldn't help but shiver, and hurriedly flattered: "I am, it's not interesting for me to participate in the assessment with them!"
She sniffed and continued, "Sitting with the elders, watching these people fight and kill, you fight for me, it's much more interesting!"
"After all, all the people here are talents, and the words are good, I like it here!"
Although this sounds a little strange, it sounds barely a good word, and the elders and peak masters present let her go, put away the cold air released outside, and in an instant, everyone laughed, and returned to the normal social atmosphere before.
Seeing that the spring flowers were finally blooming, Cheng Xue touched the ice slag on her eyebrows, and was glad that she survived the disaster.
didn't want the head to come up again, Cheng Xue looked at him vigilantly, the head couldn't help but smile, and said comfortingly: "What are you afraid of, can you still eat it?"
"What's the matter, senior brother in charge, please say it clearly!" Cheng Xue said with a straight face.
"Since you have called me Senior Brother, it should have been nothing worse than anything in the ceremony, but now you are not a disciple of our sect, or you will go to the Soul Hall to leave a soul lamp?"
"I even have a disciple token, and I'm not a disciple of our sect, senior brother, did you see my father and mother go and bully me?"
"Xue'er, you can't be like this, our Beiming faction is a formal organization, you don't have an apprenticeship, you don't have a soul, in the future, you will fly to the immortal realm, and the ancestor won't recognize it!" Seeing that everyone looked over, the head hurriedly explained.
He originally wanted Cheng Xue to accept the entrance assessment, and then naturally worship a master, with the title of master and apprentice, it is not too late for the soul lamp to stay when he goes out to practice in the future, but depending on what she means, she doesn't want to apprentice!
Regardless of whether there is a cat or not, Cheng Xue is the person on the selection list, and as soon as the selection list comes out, I don't know how many people are eyeing it, and the Beiming faction naturally has to firmly grasp the opportunity.
Coupled with the past feelings, the sect naturally has to spend a lot of effort to cultivate, but if you don't become a formal disciple, the name given by this resource is not right, and I am afraid that someone will secretly have evil intentions and make some kind of moth will not be beautiful.
Cheng Xue reluctantly accepted this explanation, she lowered her head and thought for a long time, so long that the head of the house was a little suspicious that this girl wanted to turn back, only to hear a voice tentatively sounded: "Soul card, it doesn't hurt, right?"
The elders who had been paying attention to them couldn't help but laugh out loud when they heard this, and Cheng Xue secretly said in her heart that she was disrespectful to the elders, so she didn't care about them.
The head also scolded with a smile, and then raised his forehead and said: "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt, you can go with peace of mind!"
"I'm going to wait for Sister Ning and them together!" Cheng Xue sat down again, no matter what the head of the house was, she didn't say anything.
In fact, it's not that she is afraid of pain, she has been trained by Sang Yun for a long time, her tolerance for pain has long been much higher than ordinary people, she is just the first time to make her own decision when her father and mother are not around, and it is inevitable that she will hesitate, especially when it comes to such a major event as the soul.
But she felt that it would never be wrong to follow Zhao Ning and them!
The head of the house couldn't help her, so he went with her.
Soon, three days passed, and Cheng Xue came to the outer gate square early and sat with the head of the house.
The result was not unexpected, almost all of the people in the forefront were the descendants of monks, and Zhao Ning almost swept the top ten.
The Beiming faction recruits disciples, although it does not look at the background, but the origin still determines a condition to a large extent, and then it is fully reflected in the trial ranking.
After that, it is to take 1,000 people to test the spiritual root qualifications, and finally if they are selected by the elders, they will enter the inner gate and become ordinary disciples, and if they are not selected, they will all enter the outer gate and become miscellaneous disciples.
The miscellaneous disciples of the outer sect strictly come, and they are not considered the official disciples of the sect, and the sect will not give too many resources, but only arrange monks to preach every once in a while, and the disciples can choose to go or not at will.
Relatively speaking, there are very few obligations that need to be fulfilled, but they can be almost none, as long as they don't do anything that endangers the sect, they can leave at any time, and the Beiming faction will not pursue it.
The outer sect of the Beiming faction is more inclined to form good relationships than to accept disciples, and many scattered cultivators have received a favor from the Beiming faction at the beginning of their cultivation.
And if you don't want to leave and make up your mind to join the Beiming faction, you can also participate in the annual outer gate competition, and if you come out on top or perform well, and you are selected by the elders, you can be promoted to the inner gate.
After entering the inner gate, the competition became more intense, and the ordinary disciples of the inner gate were divided into three categories: registered disciples, personal disciples, and true disciples.
In the Beiming faction, the elders are only qualified to accept disciples, and the registered disciples are just a name, if you are not a particularly prominent person, the elders may not be able to remember your name, and the grade of the monthly example is also the lowest among the disciples.
The personal disciples are very different, and the number of personal disciples of the general elder is only three, and not only can they be cultivated by the master, but they can also go to the sect to receive a lot of money.
True disciples are cultivated with the power of the sect, and after they grow up, they are protected by the sect, and they are generally selected from among the disciples of the personal lineage, and their power is comparable to that of ordinary elders, and the number is not much more expensive.
The last true disciple of the Beiming faction was Cheng Li's generation, and he just soared, and after a while, it was the personal transmission of Dabi, and he ran for the true inheritance!
Back to Cheng Xue, after the entrance assessment, he began to measure the spirit root.
Only then did Cheng Xue react, Sister Ning and the others were all ten years old, and time passed really fast, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
The head of the house asked dozens of Ouija discs to be put out, so that the selected people lined up in a long line, and the edge of the square was full of groups of people eating melons who watched the excitement.
"It turned out to be a spiritual root, this son will definitely be able to enter the inner door!" someone exclaimed.
"This is uncertain, the elders' eyes are unpredictable!" someone retorted.
Indeed, there used to be people with extremely outstanding spiritual root qualifications, but they were not favored by the elders, in fact, because of their bad intentions, they wantonly killed the candidates during the entrance assessment, and the Beiming faction even suspected that he was sent by other forces to smash the field, and the morale of the disciples in that class was gone.
Of course, this kind of person can't be included in the mountain gate, but for people with excellent qualifications, the Beiming faction will naturally hand over an olive branch.
The man measured the ice spirit root, and his expression was also faint, and the whole person was so cold and arrogant that it was very consistent with his own spirit root attributes.
The disciple in charge of measuring the spiritual root smiled at him kindly, but he didn't see any reaction, and the crowd was in an uproar.
"This son hasn't cultivated yet, what is arrogant!"
"That's it, believe it or not, grandpa, I can punch him all over the ground and find his teeth!"
"That's it, why!"
......
"Just rely on others to measure the spiritual root!"
As soon as these words came out, there was silence on the field, and everyone felt bitter in their hearts, most of the people who came here to join in the fun were outer disciples, and the spiritual roots were of inferior qualifications, they were the ones who could best understand how proud they were to have excellent spiritual roots!
The movement here was naturally seen by Cheng Xue, she looked up and looked at the central figure of the topic, hey, isn't this Li Gu?
This girl looked exactly like her when she was there, and she robbed her mother at her house, Cheng Xue grinded her teeth: "Cub, it's finally in my hands!"
"Do you know?" the head looked at him puzzled, but the next moment he reacted: "I almost forgot, you lived in the Li family in Mu Zicheng for a while, and it is normal to know each other!"
"Why is he here?"
"My Beiming faction is famous, and it can naturally attract countless outstanding people to come!" The voice of the head of the house, with a hint of temptation in pride.
"I'm already a member of the Beiming faction, and I won't run away!" Cheng Xue could hear it, he was worried about something, and said helplessly.
With these words, the head of the family is finally relieved.
After that, the spirit roots were all within Cheng Xue's expectations, Zhao Ning and their group, the worst was also the three spirit roots, although Li Yuning was puzzled, but in the end he accepted it with peace of mind.
With their birth, as long as they have a spiritual root, they can cultivate to the Jindan stage, and after the Jindan, the influence of the spiritual root on cultivation is not great.
Even after cultivating to a certain level, sometimes there are many spiritual roots, and there is still a certain advantage in the cultivation of secret methods!
It didn't take long for a thousand people to be tested, among them, the number of spiritual roots measured was not much, only a few dozen people, there were dozens of people with double spiritual roots, three spiritual roots accounted for the majority, four spiritual roots and five spiritual roots, and the number began to decrease again.
In the final analysis, in one thing, the probability of appearing very good and very bad is not high, and most people are ordinary people who are decent.
Next is the apprenticeship process, the elders and peak masters have been sitting here for three whole days, just to collect apprentices, after watching it for so long, they naturally know about it.
Zhao Ning doesn't need them, either they don't apprentice, or the master has already decided, and participating in the entry assessment is just a process.
At this time, those peak lord elders and even ancestors who didn't come at the beginning suddenly appeared, just to go through the motions.
Seeing that Sang Yun Ancestor, who had just been separated from each other, suddenly appeared beside him, Cheng Xue was so frightened that her heart jumped, and she quickly got up and saluted obediently.
Seeing her like that, the heads who had been with her for three years couldn't help but raise their eyebrows, and they really bullied the soft and feared the hard!
Sang Yun waved her hand, she was here to collect apprentices, just take it easy, Zhao Ning stepped forward, stood behind her after kneeling, just standing with Cheng Xue, the two of them frowned, so lively.
Hu Chan also worshipped the head of the family as a teacher, Du Dudu stood behind Heyun Ancestor, Zhao Sheng returned to his father's door, "one day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father" The sentence seems to be the opposite to him!
In this way, after the last disciple apprenticed, the Beiming faction recruited a total of 100 inner disciples this time, and the rest of the disciples could go to the outer gate if they wanted to stay, and they could leave on the spot if they didn't want to stay.
The head of the sect got up, and was about to announce the end of this disciple recruitment, when suddenly, a clear voice came from far and near: "Slow!"
