"Hehehe, old man, you’re at least a Half-step Celestial, and yet the youngster doesn’t give you a second glance,"
Right after Ling Xiao left, that little dog actually spoke human language, clearly mocking Elder Yang.
"A Half-step Celestial, indeed. The master this kid wants to take as his ntor is a Heavenly Lord of the Heavenly Man Realm!"
Elder Yang sighed and said, "It’s a pity. His comprehension is utterly terrifying. He could have answered at least the seventh question, but in the end, he deliberately refused to answer. I guess he must have so enemies, which is why he dares not be too ostentatious."
The little dog nodded and said, "Mhm, that must be it. And his enemies are probably so of the Heavenly Man Realm experts from our Moon Hua Sect."
"Why don’t you take him as your disciple?"
Elder Yang suddenly turned to the little dog and suggested.
"Forget it. My standards for accepting disciples are quite high. Although his performance is eye-catching and his comprehension high, we still need to observe him for a while longer. You understand, when I choose a disciple, I place the utmost value on character,"
The little dog, posing as soone of high status, spoke with great authority.
"That’s true; after all, there’s plenty of ti, no need to rush, no need to rush!"
Elder Yang smiled, looking towards the door.
By this ti, Ling Xiao had already walked into the great hall outside, where everyone’s gazes at him were sowhat strange.
Simply because he had taken the longest ti, yet he hadn’t scored full marks.
According to the scores announced by Elder Bai, Ling Xiao had only scored 6 points.
Even though it was the highest score thus far, why would it have taken so long?
Ling Xiao didn’t care how they looked at him; he just briefly recounted his experience inside to Leng i, naturally omitting so details.
He hoped to give Leng i so help.
However, when Leng i ca out, she told him that the questions had all changed. Nevertheless, with Ling Xiao’s advice, it turned out to be sowhat useful.
In this round, Leng i scored 4 points, which was also a decent performance.
Among the others who perford well, Xu Ying and Zhao Zhi both scored 6 points, indicating that both of their comprehensions were quite impressive.
Zhao Ci scored 3 points.
Elder Yang did not offer to take Xu Ying or Zhao Zhi as his disciples, which made Ling Xiao a bit worried.
Because this indicated that Elder Yang had realized that Ling Xiao had deliberately avoided answering the seventh question.
But worry aside, he had no grievances with Elder Yang, and their exchange had been quite pleasant, so he figured the Elder would not spread this incident around.
Moreover, since Elder Yang wanted to take him as a disciple, he certainly wouldn’t divulge the secret carelessly; otherwise, wouldn’t it be easy for others to poach his disciple?
The fourth assessnt test ca to an end, marking the complete conclusion of the Moon Hua Sect’s expansion recruitnt.
According to what Elder Bai said, the Moon Hua Sect usually recruited only ten people each year, but this ti, due to the expansion, they directly admitted the top thirty candidates.
Even with Dai Yuling and Leng Hao taking up two spots, that left twenty-eight.
Ling Xiao helplessly shrugged his shoulders, he had been afraid of not being accepted, but with twenty-eight spots available, there was no problem at all.
While he felt relieved, more than half of the people in the room were still trembling with nervousness.
After all, there were still sixty-eight people remaining here.
"First place, Ling Xiao, 56 points!"
Even though Ling Xiao took first place, most of his points likely ca from battle technique proficiency, so no one thought he was that extraordinary.
Instead, Zhao Zhi, who ca in second, and Xu Ying, in third place, received most of the attention.
His first-place ranking was probably the least valuable one ever.
Leng i secured fourth place, while Zhao Ci was fifth.
Ling Xiao had not paid attention to the rest, so he was not particularly concerned with their rankings.
For Master Baiyun, it was a pleasant surprise to have all three of his recomnded candidates selected into the Sect.
He had been worried that Dai Yuling and Leng i wouldn’t be accepted, but it turned out that Dai Yuling had other encounters.
Leng i’s potential was much better than he had imagined.
As a master, he really was a bit unqualified.
"Not bad, Old Baiyun, your disciple actually got first place in the beginner assessnt. Do you want to celebrate with a feast?"
Xu Ling said with a laugh.
Clearly, his words were filled with a hint of sarcasm.
Although the three people he brought only had Xu Ying accepted, and Xu Ying’s final result was only third,
In terms of potential, Xu Ying was an Immortal Treasure Body, which was far superior to Ling Xiao’s Precious Treasure Body. She was truly a talent with great potential.
In other words, no matter what the current ranking, his daughter would eventually beco an elite of the sect, while Ling Xiao would gradually fade away, until no one took any notice of him.
Master Baiyun just smiled and did not respond.
Because he was very clear about Ling Xiao’s true potential, which was definitely not inferior to Xu Ying’s.
The list of twenty-eight people ca out quickly.
Together with Leng Hao and Dai Yuling, that made thirty in total.
Although so people were dissatisfied with Dai Yuling, the problem was that there were no other martial artists present with a healing Martial Soul, and besides, Dai Yuling’s Martial Soul Remnant was already 80% restored.
So they didn’t really have anything to complain about.
This was the final result.
Speaking of which, among these thirty people, Leng Hao was the most impressive.
Then ca Zhao Zhi and Xu Ying. Both had Immortal Treasure Bodies and it was expected that they would soon beco the outstanding ones among the Outer Disciples and then be promoted to the Inner Sect.
Next in line were Ling Xiao, Zhao Ci, and Leng i.
However, most people simply overlooked Ling Xiao, not out of dislike, but because he was male.
Zhao Ci was the princess of the Northern Han Kingdom, dignified and beautiful, drawing people’s affection.
Leng i was stunning and cool, although not good at dressing up, but she still had a unique charm that made her sought after by many.
After all, in the Moon Hua Sect, there were still more n than won.
On that day, the Moon Hua Sect gave the thirty newly initiated disciples a shichen to say goodbye to their elders, masters, and so on who had accompanied them here.
Ling Xiao, Dai Yuling, and Leng i bade a reluctant farewell to Master Baiyun. Master Baiyun promised Ling Xiao that he would seek out the Divine Sword Sect after returning and then help defend it.
This was sothing he had previously promised Ling Xiao.
Ever since the Green-eyed Clan invaded Baiyun Province, Ling Xiao had been very worried about the Divine Sword Sect. That was his ho, where his family was.
Afterward, Leng Hao returned to the Golden Light Heavenly Lord, and Dai Yuling went back to dicine Mountain, which is not ntioned.
The remaining twenty-eight people followed Elder Bai to the Outer Sect Main Hall to be officially recorded.
Elder Bai was one of the Elders of the Outer Sect.
Ling Xiao didn’t know that the Outer Sect actually held a very significant position within the Moon Hua Sect.
The daily life of the Moon Hua Sect really depended on the Outer Sect, including the procurent of food, dicine, equipnt, and even the managent of secular affairs, truly indispensable to the Outer Sect.
Aside from cultivation, the Outer Disciples were also responsible for these miscellaneous duties, especially since the taboo of the Twelve Sects had been lifted.
As contact with the outside world beca increasingly frequent, it’s likely that there will be even more responsibilities for the Outer Disciples.
After being registered in the Outer Sect Main Hall, Elder Bai cautioned the new disciples about the rules of the sect one by one.
At this mont, Elder Bai was no longer the stern figure he had been before. He looked more like a capable manager of a business.
"You must especially rember, the Moon Hua Sect has many forbidden areas, all marked in your beginner’s manual. You must never go to those places. The lightest punishnt is expulsion from the sect, and at worst, execution!"
