The Azure Cloud Sword Sect was founded by Ye Qiubai, the number one sword cultivator today.
Its appeal to sword cultivators from all regions is immense.
It's not just the younger generation of sword cultivators.
Furthermore, members of the secret clans and sword cultivators from some Aristocratic Clan also came to participate.
And some reclusive experts, and elders from other sects.
They wish to apply to become retainers at the Azure Cloud Sword Sect.
Ye Qiubai stood on the high platform, looking down.
Behind him, Liang Feng stroked his chin and chuckled, "It looks like there are quite a few promising talents this time."
Jian Chaomian nodded and said, "Even more than when the sect first opened."
"Isn't this all thanks to a certain hands-off manager?"
Liang Feng glanced at Ye Qiubai beside him and said meaningfully, "If someone comes back a few more times, it probably won't be long before all the genius sword cultivators in the Wilderness Realm come running."
Ye Qiubai said with a wry smile, "Alright, alright, you two stop teasing me. I was wrong, I admit my mistake."
"How about I give you some compensation later?"
Upon hearing this...
Jian Chaomian and the other man exchanged a smile.
He revealed a smile of triumph, of a conspiracy succeeding and a consensus being reached.
"Alright, it's noon, we should head over now."
The matter of the Azure Cloud Sword Sect's enrollment.
It is divided into three stages.
The first hurdle is to assess talent.
A person's level of skill is not important; talent is the most important thing.
With enough talent and sufficient resources, one's cultivation level will eventually rise.
And testing talent is the simplest thing to do.
Lu Changsheng set up a sword stone here that could test talent.
There are nine layers on the sword stone.
The tester was able to carve a mark on each layer of the sword stone with a sword.
The more layers of carving, the stronger the Sword Dao talent.
Liang Feng and Jian Chaomian had tried it before.
Both of them left their own marks on the fifth floor.
These two were once hailed as monstrous sword cultivators of the Wilderness Realm.
However, only four layers could be carved.
This shows just how difficult it is to inscribe one's Sword Qi on the ninth level.
The second hurdle is perseverance.
The path of cultivation is inherently arduous.
Having talent without perseverance will limit one's potential.
The third and most important stage.
conduct.
The path of Sword Dao.
The most heartfelt thing is that if you can't follow your heart and forge ahead without hesitation.
Then the Sword Dao will go astray.
If someone uses the Sword Dao to commit evil, the Azure Cloud Sword Sect would never accept them as a disciple.
At the mountain gate.
When Ye Qiubai and his two companions arrived at this place.
Immediately, all the sword cultivators who wanted to join the Azure Cloud Sword Sect bowed to Ye Qiubai.
"Greetings, Senior Ye!"
The sound was deafening.
Ye Qiubai pressed his hands down and said with a smile, "Today is the day of recruitment for my Azure Cloud Sword Sect. Those of you who wish to join the Azure Cloud Sword Sect must already know the rules, so let's begin."
At the mountain gate, there are nine sword-shaped stones.
It's considered a success once it's engraved on the third layer.
Upon seeing this, the sword cultivators all walked up to the sword stone.
Begin carving the sword upwards.
Several elders were inspecting the area from the side.
" Eastern Region, Lei Yun, Second Layer, Failure."
" Western Region, Xiang He, First Level, Failure."
" Northern Region, Ming Chu, no sword marks left, defeat..."
The examination of the sword stones alone was enough to eliminate most of the sword cultivators.
Ye Qiubai watched this scene and couldn't help but shake his head secretly.
As expected, the foundation of the Wilderness Realm is still somewhat lacking.
Compared to the Boundless Realm, there are far too few who can truly be called geniuses.
The sword cultivators below could only manage wry smiles as they watched this scene.
" Lei Yun from the Eastern Region comes from the Aristocratic Clan of sword cultivators. The eldest son of the Lei Clan is known as a genius of the Thunder Sword, but he still failed here."
" Xiang He, too, has participated in numerous secret realms and is renowned, but it seems he still doesn't meet the standards of the Azure Cloud Sword Sect."
"Definitely. The Azure Cloud Sword Sect was founded by Senior Ye, so naturally the requirements are very high."
"I wonder who will be the first to pass?"
The words had barely left his mouth.
The sword stone in the middle suddenly swelled with Sword Intent!
Everyone looked over.
The woman in front of the sword stone was actually carved directly on the fourth level!
"Who is that person? So beautiful..."
"You don't recognize her? Xin Hongyi, from the Xin Clan of the Southern Region, known as the most beautiful woman in the Southern Region!"
"Isn't she from the Hidden Dao Academy?"
" The Hidden Dao Academy does not restrict students from joining other factions."
Ye Qiubai watched this scene and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Liang Feng and Jian Chaomian, standing to the side, both looked at Ye Qiubai with ambiguous expressions.
"Some people really are ladies' men."
"Miss Xin has rejected countless suitors over the years, even those arranged by her Lineage. I wonder who she's waiting for."
Ye Qiubai was helpless.
Why did he show mercy?
It's nothing more than fighting once and saving someone once.
That's all.
Xin Hongyi raised her head and looked in Ye Qiubai's direction. Then, she walked through the mountain gate and entered the second level.
" Central Region, Hao Tian, Sixth Level, Passed!"
The sixth floor?
Everyone looked in Hao Tian's direction.
His face showed shock.
"Who is this person? Why have I never heard of him before?"
"Probably Rogue Cultivator, but it's inscribed on the sixth level?"
Liang Feng and Jian Chaomian were also somewhat surprised.
His Sword Dao talent is even higher than theirs?
Ye Qiubai laughed, "It seems a promising talent has emerged. However, his Sword Intent is indeed quite interesting."
Everyone's Sword Intent is actually different.
Some people are fierce and powerful, Sword Intent is extremely sharp and aggressive.
Some people are good at planning, so their Sword Intent tends to lean towards defense.
"What, you want to train him yourself?"
Ye Qiubai smiled and said, "Let's take a look first."
After that, only one hundred people passed the first stage.
Hao Tian was the most talented among them.
After entering the second level.
The elder asked, " Hao Tian, which elder do you wish to become a disciple of next, Jian Chaomian or Liang Feng?"
Hao Tian shook his head and said, "I don't want any of these people."
"Oh? So who do you want to worship? Or are you going to cultivate on your own?"
Hao Tian looked towards the summit of the Azure Cloud Sword Sect.
A glint of ambition flashed in his eyes!
"I wish to become a disciple of the sect leader. Only Senior Ye is worthy to be my master."
The elders were all taken aback.
He then smiled wryly and said, "The sect leader doesn't accept disciples."
Hao Tian shrugged and said, "We have to give it a try."
Meanwhile, Ning Chenxin arrived at the Study.
The Study's location is very simple.
There was a simple courtyard around it, used by those who studied Confucian Dao and Study.
And right in the center was a huge library.
It contains countless books!
In the past, one could often see Confucian scholars studying here.
It was quite tranquil.
However, the Study is now filled with a somber atmosphere.
Those who practiced Confucianism actually wore expressions of slight panic!
Ning Chenxin walked over and waved.
Beams of white light shone down.
Immediately, the panic on their faces vanished.
A sense of peace settled down within me.
"Senior Ning has arrived!"
Ning Chenxin asked, "Tell me the whole story."
In the Study, such a thing could not be taken Ning Chenxin and ignored!
