Chapter 2 The Ceremony of Accepting Apprentices
The acceptance ceremony for new disciples of the Zixiao Sect is held at Taichu Peak. Although passing the path of inquiry is equivalent to entering the Zixiao Sect, if you are not favored by any peak, you can only become an outer disciple.
On the high platform of Taichu Peak, the head of Zixiao Sect, Yuan Ji, sat in the middle. While looking around at the new disciples below, he said to his junior brother Xuan Wei, who was sitting on his right: "Junior Brother Xuanwei, you Lingyan Peak
I haven’t had any disciples for more than 20 years, so it’s time to pick a few this time.”
The five peaks of Zixiao Sect belong to law cultivation, medical cultivation, weapon cultivation, music cultivation, and sword cultivation.
Lingyan Peak is the master swordsman, and the peak master Xuanwei has never cared about the trivial matters in the sect. Since he took over as the master of Lingyan Peak two hundred years ago, Lingyan Peak has only accepted three disciples.
All trivial matters are also taken care of by his eldest disciple Lin Qingyue.
Even so, no one dares to question Master Xuanwei's position as the peak master. He is a true swordsman. Swordsmen always become colder and colder as their level increases. Master Xuanwei's cultivation is indeed increasing day by day.
His cold personality has become more and more profound. A hundred years ago, he defeated ten thousand demons with one sword, and his reputation shocked the world of demons. He became the number one sword cultivator today.
"Senior brother should also know that sword cultivators are rare. It depends on fate." Xuan Wei held his chin with one hand, half-closed his eyes, and spoke listlessly.
Seeing Xuan Wei's lack of interest, Yuan Zhu knew that Xuan Wei definitely didn't want to accept a disciple.
"Xuanwei, what do you think of the little girl standing at the front? She was the first person to pass the Heart-Questioning Test this time. It only took two hours. She is the fastest new disciple in the past hundred years. She must be able to
Both the root and the mind are rare to see in a hundred years." Yuan Zhu pointed at Xin'er, who was standing in front of the new disciples, and said to Xuan Wei.
Xuanwei raised his eyes and glanced in the direction Yuan Ji was pointing, and saw that Xin'er was neatly dressed and had a brisk expression. Judging from this appearance, he did not encounter any difficulties when he asked about his thoughts, but his eyes did not linger for long.
The little girl didn't seem to arouse his interest.
He said: "Women are too delicate and not suitable to be swordsmen."
The female peak master of Suwen Peak and a large group of female disciples from Miaoyin Peak immediately glanced over at them coldly.
Yuan Zhu wiped away the non-existent cold sweat under the gazes of the female cultivators and smoothed things over: "This little girl seems to be quite spiritual. She should be more suitable to be a music cultivator than a sword cultivator. But with so many disciples,
There is always someone suitable to be a sword cultivator, why don't you, Xuanwei, go down and take a closer look."
Xuanwei nodded, got up, wielded his sword and flew from the high platform to the front of the disciples.
The disciples couldn't help but let out low exclamations when they saw Xuan Wei flying with his sword.
Xuan Wei has a beautiful face, her forehead hair is tied behind her head with a dark green hairband, and she wears a sky-blue Taoist robe that flutters in the breeze. Except for her half-closed eyes that seem not to pay attention to anyone,
There is really nothing that is not amazing.
Originally, when he sat on the high platform with the peak masters and couldn't see his true appearance, his temperament was already very outstanding. Now that the disciples looked at him up close, they realized that this real person was really too handsome.
Xin'er was standing closest to Xuanwei. She was still young and had not yet reached the stage of first love, but Xuanwei looked very powerful. She couldn't help but think to herself, if she could be accepted as a disciple by this real person, she would
alright.
Unfortunately, Xuan Wei had already walked away from her, walked past a group of disciples, walked from the front to the back, and roughly scanned all the disciples.
After reading it, he returned to the high platform and said to Yuan Zhu: "No one is suitable to join our Lingyan Peak."
How could Yuan Zhu not know that Xuan Wei went down to see this circle just to deal with him, and didn't really want to accept a disciple at all. He just gave up and stopped forcing Xuan Wei.
After Xuan Wei's incident was over, the disciples below began to test their spiritual roots one by one, and then the top disciples of each peak assigned their destinations. Single spiritual roots and a few lucky double spiritual roots became inner disciples, and most of them had double spiritual roots.
He and Sanlinggen both went to the outer gate.
Xin'er, the first female protagonist to pass the Qinluo Examination, detected the mutated wood spirit root, and was lucky enough to be directly accepted as a direct disciple by the Master of Miaoyin Peak.
Master Guiyang, the eldest disciple of Miaoyin Peak, personally came down and took Xin'er to the disciples of Miaoyin Peak.
Even so, Xin'er glanced in the direction of Master Xuanwei on the high platform and still felt a little disappointed.
The previous disciples had their destinations one by one, and finally it was Poria cocos' turn.
Facing the crystal stone for measuring spiritual roots, Fuling was a little uneasy.
The system had already told her that she had an inferior fourth spiritual root. However, the tests of so many new disciples before her showed that they all had three or higher spiritual roots, and no fourth spiritual root had appeared.
People with three spiritual roots will be discriminated against here, but what about her four spiritual roots?
Fu Ling put her hand on the spar, and four dim colors appeared on the spar. Just as the system said, it was undoubtedly the Four Spiritual Roots with extremely poor qualifications.
"How do the four spiritual roots pass through the mind?"
"Most of the three spiritual roots cannot withstand the pressure of the last section of Wen Xin Lu."
"You see her hands are all bruised. She must have crawled over with all her strength."
"The Four Spiritual Roots are not even willing to accept the small sects outside, so how can they enter the Zixiao Sect?"
Fu Ling heard the disciples next to her start talking after seeing her test results.
Standing among the disciples of Dharma cultivation, Master Lingxu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Poria cocos' test results. Most people in the mortal world have no spiritual roots. Since Poria cocos has four spiritual roots, even though it is a bit inferior, the sect can still retain it.
She is an outside disciple.
"Yi Fuling, enter the outer gate." Seeing that no one in the Five Peaks signaled, the elder in charge of arranging the disciples reported the result.
When Fu Ling turned around and was about to walk towards the outer disciples, her back was suddenly lightly hit by a small fruit.
Poria turned her head and looked in the direction where the fruit was thrown, and saw Master Xuanwei looking at her on the high platform.
"Are you willing to join me as a sword cultivator at Lingyan Peak?" Master Xuanwei asked.
Fuling was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Master, with my qualifications of the Four Spiritual Roots, no matter how hard I work, I will probably stop at practicing Qi. Is it useful for Ling Yanfeng to accept me?"
The system even advised her to give up. What did this real person see in her?
"Weeding, planting flowers, cleaning swords, it has many uses." Master Xuanwei said.
Yuan Zhu and other peak masters:...Xuan Wei really has no conscience.
"I just said that women are too delicate and refuse to accept it..." Yuan Zhu muttered.
Xuan Wei glanced at Yuan Zhu and said: "The four spiritual roots can pass through the heart path. With this kind of mind, besides her, can you find another woman to come out?"
"She is the only one with four spiritual roots who can interrogate the mind within a hundred years. Let alone whether she is a boy or a girl, where can I find the second one?" Yuan Ju said.
"But Xuanwei, the lack of spiritual roots cannot be made up by the ability of the mind. Even if the sword cultivation focuses on the nature of the mind, the four spiritual roots cannot surpass the single spiritual root. You have to think clearly."
"How can you, a Dharma cultivator, understand our sword cultivation?"
