"Then what is the Array Hall?"
"Our Heaven-Questioning Pavilion is divided into seven main halls, each focusing on a different cultivation path."
These seven main halls are the Spirit Martial Hall, Heavenly Sword Hall, Overlord Body Hall, Array Hall, Medicine King Hall, Artifact Refining Hall, and Talisman Rune Hall.
Our elders are all affiliated with these seven halls. When you choose a master, you should definitely choose the hall that is related to your future development direction, so that you can obtain the best resources.
For example, the Spirit Martial Hall has the most cultivation rooms, while the Medicine King Hall has the most complete alchemy facilities, and the Artifact Refining Hall has the best weapon refining equipment, and so on.
After Huang Tianjiao finished speaking, the five of them had already arrived in a mountainous area.
This mountainous area is vast, with numerous houses scattered in front, each a hundred meters apart. The trees are distributed throughout, and the environment seems quite pleasant.
"This mountain is called Treasure Arrival Peak, and all of you freshmen this year are assigned here."
These are all ordinary houses. The three of you who have courtyards as a reward, please wait a moment. Those of you without courtyards can choose any house you like. Once you've chosen, just register with me.
"Okay! Just a moment."
Chen Mu and Chen Duo had discussed this before. After the third-grade courtyard of the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion was allocated, Chen Duo would live with him.
They probably wouldn't live in these houses, but since they had already been assigned, they decided not to waste them and randomly picked one that caught their eye, settling on it with Huang Tianjiao.
"Alright, let's go then! The reward courtyard is up there."
Huang Tianjiao led the group up the mountain path, and after walking for a long time, they stopped halfway up the mountain.
"This area is all second-grade courtyards. You can choose any of the second and third place winners from the ranking competition."
At a glance, there are more than a dozen courtyards halfway up the mountain, all located in places with beautiful scenery and abundant Spiritual Power.
Is nobody here?
A Huo asked.
"Yes! In the future, when the disciples below have accumulated enough contribution points, they can also move them here. This will also serve as an incentive for the disciples."
Huang Tianjiao said calmly.
A Huo and Mingye would be staying here for a long time, so they didn't dare to be careless. They went to look at each room one by one, and it took them more than an hour to settle on their respective courtyards.
Next was Chen Mu's third-rank courtyard. They continued uphill until they reached near the summit before stopping.
"These are all Grade Three courtyards, choose one yourself!"
Chen Mu walked around to look at each of the courtyards. All of them were quite nice. In the end, he chose the largest one, thinking it would be more convenient to conduct various experiments in the future.
"The second and third-rank courtyards all have natural tributaries of spiritual veins, where the Spiritual Qi is more concentrated than in other places. You must use them carefully and never damage the spiritual veins, or you will be severely punished by the academy!"
"Yes! Thank you for reminding me, Senior Brother!"
"In the past month, elders from various halls have been giving lectures and discussing the Dao. You are free to attend and listen. If you can gain some insight, you might be appreciated by an elder and taken under their wing."
During this period, the elders who recruit a large number of disciples will receive rewards, so this is a great opportunity that you should seize.
Huang Tianjiao explained the rules that the new disciples needed to know, and finally gave each of them a freshman handbook before nodding and leaving.
" A Huo, Mingye, these courtyards have been abandoned for a long time and need to be cleaned up properly."
Let's clean my place together first, and then we'll go clean yours!
A Huo and Mingye had no objections, and the four of them worked together to clean the third-grade courtyard.
It is said that these courtyards were built by generations of disciples of the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion, so you can still see some of the habits and behaviors of the previous generation of disciples in these courtyards.
The previous owner of this courtyard was very practical. Apart from a few houses, there were no decorative flower beds in the courtyard. Instead, there were several acres of medicinal herb fields. There were also traces of array formations that had been set up here, but they had mostly become ineffective over the years.
Chen Mu took some soil from the medicinal field to test it and found that the soil quality was extremely high, enough to grow high-grade spiritual plants, which was an unexpected surprise.
Next to the yard is a fishpond about half an acre in size. The water in it is very murky. Chen Mu doesn't usually keep fish and is too lazy to clean it, so he just leaves it like that.
The four of them spent half an hour cleaning up the courtyard, and then went down the mountain to clean up A Huo's and Mingye's courtyards.
While cleaning the courtyard, Chen Mu also set up defensive and Spirit Gathering Array in A Huo's and Mingye's courtyards. However, Chen Mu had almost used up his rune materials, so he only set them up simply and would help them improve them later.
A day later, the four of them settled down on Treasure Arrival Peak. They all received the spirit grain sent to them by the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion, as well as an exquisitely designed identity plaque.
This plaque records their personal information, as well as their reward contribution points. It can be read by activating it with Spiritual Power, and it is crucial to their life in the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion.
Chen Mu was not in a hurry to attend classes in the various halls. Instead, he carefully read through the freshman handbook and gained a more comprehensive understanding of the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion.
The Spirit Augmenting Pill rewarded by the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion are a good thing, as they can rapidly increase one's Spiritual Power. However, consuming too many can easily lead to an unstable foundation, so it is generally not recommended that disciples rely too much on these pills.
However, Chen Mu and his companions had never taken such a pill before, so once they calmed down, they immediately took the Spirit Augmenting Pill.
The effects of the Spirit Augmenting Pill were very noticeable; all four felt their Spiritual Power increase significantly. Mingye even sensed the barrier to her cultivation realm, but the barrier to the True Spirit Realm was extremely difficult to break through, and she didn't know how long it would take her to do so.
Inside Tuoba Ziying Flame Blessing Tribe's study in the Yanzhu tribe.
"Young Master, news has come from Listening Wind Tower: they've located Mingye."
Tuoba Ziying, dressed in a white brocade robe, was sitting upright at his desk when a man knelt on one knee and reported to him.
Tuoba Ziying looked tense and stood up.
"Finally found her! Tell me, where is she?"
"I heard that he passed the exam for the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion along with several other Wilderness and became a disciple of the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion."
With a snap, Tuoba Ziying broke the writing brush in his hand.
He originally thought that Mingye had encountered an accident and was trapped, but he didn't expect that Mingye would actually run to the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion.
He went to the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion without asking for permission; that's clearly desertion!
Do you know which tribe those Wilderness belong to? Why is Mingye with them?
"Reporting to the young master, they are said to be from Chen Village, and their leader is named Chen Mu. I heard he is also a formation master, and he has made a name for himself in this year's freshman ranking competition at the Heaven-Questioning Pavilion, leading Mingye and the others to win the top three places in a row."
" Chen Mu? A formation master?"
Tuoba Ziying was completely baffled. He had heard that a talisman master had emerged in Chen Village, and now a formation master had appeared. How could such a Xiaoxiao, remote tribe produce so many powerful figures?
