Pass Rate
Otherwise, the vast Li Clan wouldn't have been able to select only these five people.
It's not like even the current emperor Li Zhouxuan, has to be dragged off the throne after sitting on it for less than ten years.
A successor must be chosen from within the clan, but that's a matter for later.
As it turned out, Li Zhanying's careful selection was effective.
Of the five people Li Clan sent to the Heart-Questioning Road, four of them passed!
This pass rate is quite high.
However, there's no real secret to joining the Lingxian Sect, because their strict requirements are there, and if you don't meet them, you can't get in.
These five people who made it into the top four were selected from the vast Li Clan clan.
Of the four Li Clan family members who successfully passed the Heart-Questioning Road of Heart-Questioning Road, only Li Zhouxuan entered that morning and walked out smoothly that evening.
The other three didn't come out until the afternoon or evening of the following day.
The only member of the Li Clan family who failed the test actually survived for one or two hours before being eliminated from the Path of Heart-Questioning Road Heart-Questioning Road.
Thus, all four members of the Li Clan family successfully became disciples of the Lingxian Sect.
In response to the Li Clan's request, Li Zhouxuan was placed in the Foreign Trade Office of the Trade Affairs Center, where he was put in charge of foreign trade matters.
The other three were not assigned to tasks at the foot of the mountain, but were instead tasked with filling the manpower gaps in various sect affairs caused by the construction of Xiushui City.
This wasn't because Lingxian Sect was wary of the Li Clan; after all, those who had passed the Heart-Questioning Road all highly regarded their character.
However, these four people joined the sect with some Lineage ties, so if they want to integrate into the sect quickly, they certainly can't be arranged together. It would be best to spread them out and assign them to different positions.
Apart from Li Zhouxuan, the other few people had almost no cultivation. Only one of them managed to Drawing Qi into the Body, but that was all. The Spiritual Qi they drew into their bodies barely lingered in their bodies.
Compared to the disciples of Azure Cloud Peak, whose cultivation level is at least at the Middle Qi Refining Stage, Lingxian Sect is not comfortable letting these newcomers go down the mountain to do things. It is more important for them to focus on cultivation.
Otherwise, what's the point of working as efficiently as an ordinary person?
There are so many ordinary people down the mountain, we don't need these few more as laborers.
Thus, the four sons of the Li Clan were settled.
When Mo Yuanjiao learned that Li Zhouxuan had also joined their Lingxian Sect, he was so surprised that he put aside his most urgent matters and slipped away to Li Zhouxuan's dormitory on Azure Cloud Peak.
When he saw Li Zhouxuan, who had just settled in and was about to leave, he quickly walked over and circled him around, looking him up and down while clicking his tongue in amazement. Li Zhouxuan.
"Get to the point, kid. You're making me dizzy," Li Zhouxuan said.
Mo Yuanjiao then stopped, familiarly placing his hand on Li Zhouxuan's shoulder in surprise, "I didn't expect you to come in, Your Majesty! Have you given up being the emperor?"
Recently, everyone in the sect has been extremely busy, and Mo Yuanjiao hasn't paid much attention to news from the capital. Most of the sect's external affairs are now handled by Liu Yunan, Qin Jianghe, and Lin Yun, so he was completely unaware that the Li Clan had sent people here.
However, now that I know, I am very happy.
When he was a child, he had a very good relationship with his cousin Li Zhouxuan, who was more than ten years older than him. Li Zhouxuan taught him everything he needed to learn, and Li Zhouxuan's python robe was often smeared with his snot when he was a child.
His stubbornness and meticulousness, which seemed childish to adults when he was young, were only taken seriously by this cousin, who would also help him deal with the elders. He was truly a good older brother.
Therefore, Mo Yuanjiao actually liked this cousin very much.
However, after Li Zhouxuan, Mo Yuanjiao grew up and learned about the so-called rules, and the relationship between the two became somewhat distant.
However, for Mo Yuanjiao, that was just a matter of social status as defined by the world. Although he disliked the dull palace and could no longer be as close to his cousin as he was when he was a child because of his status, his respect and love for Li Zhouxuan had never changed.
Therefore, now that Li Zhouxuan has relinquished his status as emperor, Mo Yuanjiao immediately and without any hesitation put his arm around him and acted without any respect for his elders.
"Yes, the Ancestor banished me to the Lingxian Sect and forbade me from becoming emperor." Li Zhouxuan, in his thirties, had Mo Yuanjiao around his shoulder. Seeing that Mo Yuanjiao no longer kept his distance from him as he had in the palace, Li Zhouxuan found it somewhat amusing. "Not bad, you've grown taller again."
Li Zhouxuan gestured with his hand above the heads of the two people.
I realized that my cousin was already half a head taller than me, no wonder it was so easy to put my arm around his shoulder.
Mo Yuanjiao stood up straight with a smug look on his face, raised an eyebrow at Li Zhouxuan, and said mysteriously:
Do you know what level of cultivation you have now?
In the past, because sects did not want to reveal their cultivation levels to the world, their disciples concealed their cultivation levels with Peach Leaf Pendant and would not disclose their cultivation realms to outsiders.
Nowadays, lower-ranking disciples no longer need to wear Peach Leaf Pendant unless they are far from the sect's territory.
Those at the Golden Core and above no longer need to wear the Peach Leaf Pendant, because their sect now has a Cultivation Method that can conceal their cultivation level.
Compared to the wide variety of Cultivation Method in the sect, this Cultivation Method is very simple, so everyone Cultivation Method it along with other Cultivation Method.
Regardless of whether Mo Yuanjiao was wearing the Peach Leaf Pendant or not, how could Li Zhouxuan, Qi Refining First Layer, tell? He followed Mo Yuanjiao's words and asked, "What is your cultivation level?"
Mo Yuanjiao raised his head and puffed out his chest, patting his chest triumphantly and saying, "Golden Core! Mid-stage!"
"What?! Golden Core?!" Li Zhouxuan exclaimed in astonishment.
"Hmm~" Mo Yuanjiao responded smugly, then leaned close to his ear and whispered mysteriously, "I'm considered slow. My sect leader and senior brother Yigao cultivate much faster."
At this moment, Li Zhouxuan was still immersed in the astonishment that he had become Golden Core cultivator in just a few years of cultivation. Upon hearing this, he stared blankly at Mo Yuanjiao.
Mo Yuanjiao quickly replied:
"My sect leader has already Nascent Soul, and Senior Brother Yigao also recently Nascent Soul stage. Oh, by the way, you didn't know that our sect also has Elder Liao, who recently reached the Spirit Transformation."
Although the seniority system in the Lingxian Sect is now generally clear and orderly, it is still chaotic in Mo Yuanjiao's case. He is the only one in the entire sect who keeps calling people by their seniority and can't be corrected no matter what. However, within the Lingxian Sect, especially among the first generation of disciples, seniority is not that important. So Lin Xiao was too lazy to correct him and let him be.
Having said all that, Mo Yuanjiao finally felt better.
He had been keeping these words in his heart for a long time!
When he first joined the Lingxian Sect, he didn't really understand the sect's situation and blindly thought that it was a hidden sect that was different from the three major sects.
