"Silly girl!"

"Don't say things like that again. Even if I leave, it's just to return to Clearwater Town."

"Once your cultivation is successful, come back and see me. Maybe when you're strong enough, you can find some heavenly treasures to improve my aptitude, so I can also walk this path of immortality, right?"

Lin Xuan looked at Yu Bing with a smile.

Hearing his words, Yu Bing's eyes lit up. "That's right, there must be heavenly treasures that can improve aptitude. I know what to do. Lin Xuan-gege, don't worry, Xiao Yu'er will definitely help you."

Never before had Yu Bing so yearned to become strong.

Liu Ruyan couldn't help but glance sideways, feeling a slight fondness for Lin Xuan.

However, in this Azure Cloud Realm, changing one's aptitude was as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Of course, she didn't point it out at the moment, wanting to leave the girl with a hope, so that she wouldn't waste her peerless talent.

The two talked for more than ten minutes, saying many things, and Liu Ruyan waited quietly.

This showed how much she doted on her newly accepted disciple.

"Let's go!"

Finally, Liu Ruyan took Yu Bing and left as a stream of light.

With Yu Bing's peerless talent, she naturally couldn't stay in this outer sect. As a personal disciple of the peak master, she would start as an inner sect disciple.

In this Divine Firmament Holy Land, there were divisions of servants, outer sect, inner sect, and core disciples.

The higher one's status, the more resources one could obtain.

Of course, one also needed enough contribution and strength to reach the equivalent position.

"Soul Suppressing Pagoda, I hope you won't disappoint me. Adding Zhang Tao's protection, I've now accumulated a full thirty years."

"If I can't step onto the path of immortality even after spending these thirty years, then there's no need to cultivate."

Lin Xuan stared in the direction Yu Bing and Liu Ruyan left for a long time before he came back to his senses.

An hour passed quietly, and Lin Xuan heard movement behind him. He turned his head and saw the outer sect elder leading a large group of people.

Lin Xuan's pupils shrank. The Floating Training Grounds had at least ten thousand people, but now there were less than a thousand left, showing how high the elimination rate was.

He was truly lucky.

The Divine Firmament Holy Land was one of the top sects in the Southern Domain. Even the servants were required to have third or fourth-grade aptitude, and first or second-grade were not accepted.

This showed how huge an opportunity it was for Lin Xuan, a Useless Body, to enter this supreme immortal sect.

"Follow me!"

While Lin Xuan was thinking, the group had already arrived in front of him, and the outer sect elder casually gave an order.

"Yes!"

Lin Xuan responded and followed the group.

"Lin Xuan, your luck won't last forever. Once you enter the Holy Land, I have a hundred ways to play you to death."

"This is the difference in status, and also the difference between you and me."

Three more people suddenly appeared beside Lin Xuan, namely Zhang Tao and two teenagers from Clearwater Town.

Of the dozen or so people from Clearwater Town, three-quarters had been eliminated.

"One word from my wife could destroy you, but don't worry, I won't let my wife take action. I want to personally send you on your way."

Lin Xuan glanced at Zhang Tao.

The moment he said those words, Zhang Tao's expression changed, but after hearing the rest, he became disdainful.

"You garbage who lives off his wife, remember your words. Let's see who plays who to death first."

"Waste! You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth."

"Young Master Zhang, there's no need for you to act. We can take his dog life."

The other two teenagers from Clearwater Town also echoed, Zhang Tao was an outer sect disciple, and they had the relationship of being from the same town, so they naturally had to curry favor with him.

"Oh, I forgot to say, and you two as well. Don't worry, the three of you will have company on the road to the Yellow Springs."

Lin Xuan looked at the two of them.

The three of them scoffed at his words.

But they didn't say much, because at this moment, they had arrived at the place to receive their uniforms.

Under the guidance of the outer sect elder and a group of disciples, the disciples whose aptitude reached the standard to directly enter the outer sect received Black Martial Uniforms, while the servants all received Azure Martial Uniforms.

The world of Xuanhuan was hierarchical, and this was even more so within the immortal sect.

After receiving their uniforms, each person also received a disciple token, the same color as their clothes.

After that, the group went to the pill distribution point and received the pills that everyone could obtain after entering the sect.

For outer sect disciples, it was the Body Forging Pill, one of which could allow a mortal to cross into the first realm of the four realms of the mortal realm, the Body Forging Realm.

Of course, this had strict requirements for aptitude. At least fifth-grade aptitude was needed to fully absorb the medicinal power of the Body Forging Pill.

Those with aptitude below grade five were deemed unworthy of the Body Forging Pill, as it would be a waste. Moreover, this pill could only be taken once in a lifetime.

The servants with aptitude below grade five all received the weaker Body Strengthening Pill. This was the lowest grade pill in the Divine Firmament Holy Land, but it could still greatly improve one's physique, and it too could only be taken once in a lifetime.

A servant in Azure Martial Uniform was in charge of distributing the pills. When it was Zhang Tao's turn to receive his, a fawning smile immediately appeared on the servant's face.

"Greetings, Senior Brother! Senior Brother's talent is unmatched, I admire you greatly. This junior is Niu Fang, late Body Forging Realm, a servant in charge. I hope Senior Brother will take care of me in the future."

"You're calling me Senior Brother?"

Zhang Tao was slightly taken aback. This Niu Fang looked at least twenty years old, wasn't he mistaken?

"Haha... Senior Brother is being modest. Senior Brother entered the outer sect directly, your talent is unmatched."

"In the path of cultivation, those who are more accomplished are teachers. It won't be long before Senior Brother surpasses me."

Niu Fang said with a smile.

Zhang Tao understood, and his vanity was greatly satisfied at this moment.

He couldn't help but glance at Lin Xuan, a smirk on his lips, "Niu Fang, could I trouble you with something?"

"Senior Brother, please speak! Niu Fang will do anything, even die for you!" Niu Fang's expression immediately became serious.

Lin Xuan's expression changed slightly, his gaze becoming colder.

Zhang Tao's smile deepened as he pointed at Lin Xuan, "That servant has a Useless Body. I don't think there's any need to give him a pill, right?"

"A Useless Body? How did he get in?" Niu Fang was stunned for a moment, but the next moment, he didn't have time to think too much, and he quickly said, "Senior Brother, I can't make the decision on this matter. The Holy Land has regulations that every disciple must receive their share, otherwise the elders will cripple my cultivation and expel me from the Holy Land tomorrow."

Hearing this, Zhang Tao secretly thought it was a pity.

Lin Xuan breathed a slight sigh of relief.

But in his heart, the killing intent could not be concealed no matter what.

Zhang Tao, you have chosen your own death.

"Does Senior Brother have a grudge against him?" At this time, Niu Fang asked again.

"He killed my guard." Zhang Tao nodded.

"That's simple. I'll be in charge of the servant affairs later, and I'll definitely give Senior Brother a satisfactory explanation."

Niu Fang completely ignored Lin Xuan.

Zhang Tao's eyes lit up, "Good, then I'll thank you in advance. I'm Zhang Tao, feel free to find me if you need anything in the future."

"Yes, thank you, Senior Brother Zhang."

Niu Fang was overjoyed, and then continued to distribute the pills.

When it was Lin Xuan's turn, he looked at Lin Xuan with pity.

Lin Xuan lowered his head, the killing intent in his eyes terribly strong.
