Chapter XI Election of Disciples

Hearing Elder Han's orders, the disciples who were about to enter the sect understood the rules. Regardless of whether it was the children of rich or poor families, they all stood in a row, waiting for the other party's test.

Of course, this was also because of the power these Immortal cultivators had developed over a long period of time.

Cultivators could be said to have a high position in Floating Cloud Country, and the emperor of Floating Cloud Nation treated cultivators with great respect. Of course, if it was those tyrannical old monsters … As a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, I don't think much of you. Think about it, he was the ruler of a country after all. How could he lower his head to a weak cultivator like you?

It was said that the emperor's father was also a cultivator, and a powerful one at the later stages of the Aurous Core stage. It was still unclear whether he had reached the Nascent Soul stage yet, but as the ruler of a country, he naturally had many experts under his command.

Alright, there are too many things I have to say, so please forgive me, this idiotic author.

Looking at the well-behaved team, Elder Han was very satisfied, but his expression was still very cold. Perhaps he wanted to maintain his seriousness and dignity.

He waved his sleeve and rushed over from the top of the stairs. He then stood in front of everyone like the wind.

That pair of deep eyes slightly narrowed as he walked to the front of the disciple participating in the examination. His large hand was placed on the disciple's neck, and his eyes once again narrowed by a quarter.

After a while, the old man sighed and said in disappointment, "Boy, you are not suitable to cultivate. I can't feel any spiritual roots at all. You can go down the mountain!"

Hearing this, the youth's eyes were filled with tears as he cried, "Elder Han, please accept me, please accept me! My hard work is still not enough, but am I not able to put in ten times more effort than an ordinary person?! "

The youngster's sincere words clearly moved Elder Han, but the latter shook his head as if he was enduring the pain. "Child, go down the mountain. This cultivation path is not something that can be reached by effort. Don't waste your youth and ruin your future. "

Then, Elder Han ordered his disciples, "Ye Shan, send him down the mountain!"

Hearing this, a disciple standing behind Elder Han waved his hand and sand flew and rocks flew. Moments later, there was no one at the spot. Presumably, the youth that had been eliminated had already been sent down the mountain by someone else using a spell.

"Child, you still don't have spiritual roots. It seems this Immortal Cultivation path isn't suitable for you."

"Let's go down!"

"Child, you don't have spiritual roots either."

"Sigh!" Elder Han let out a long sigh. As he looked at the diminishing number of people, the disappointment on his face became more obvious.

"If we don't meet someone with a spirit root like this, then my Xuan Zhen Sect will probably have no more successors!" Elder Han caressed the neck of a youth and shook his head with a disappointed expression.

"Child, you do have some spirit root, but it's not very obvious. You can barely count it as one, right?" Elder Han walked to the front of a young man from a rich family and said with some gratification, "You can pass now. Go up."

With that, he walked up the stairs with a smile on his face, and the youths that came to take the test threw him envious looks. He was the first qualified person in the morning. Heavens, he was truly the favorite of the heavens. He actually passed.

The birth of the first lucky person caused a small commotion in the audience. After all, it had been the entire morning and among the several hundred candidates, there was finally the first qualified candidate.

Standing at the back, Ge Chen's face was also a bit disappointed. Seeing his fellow companions being chased down the mountain with sullen faces, how could he feel anything in his heart?

Even though these people were not related to him in any way, and could even be considered to have met by chance without knowing their name, they had all come together to cultivate. Naturally, they felt some pity for their companions.

"Sigh!" Elder Han let out a sigh as before, "This is already the 203rd person, but there is only one person who has passed the test, and it is also someone with poor spiritual roots. How can this be good!"

Elder Han's dejected face had already turned ashen, his face had become even more gloomy, and his temper seemed to be even more exuberant, "No way!" "Down the mountain!"

"Not qualified, descend the mountain!" Elder Han's voice was somewhat loud …

"302!" "Not qualified!"

"Three hundred and third!" "Not qualified!"

"..." "..."

"401 high grade wood affinity spiritual roots?" Elder Han's face changed from anger to joy, his face was filled with pleasant surprise, and he once again measured it in disbelief, "Haha! It really is a top-grade wood type spiritual root. Kid, what's your name? "

Elder Han's loud words made this immature youth feel somewhat embarrassed. He immediately opened his mouth and replied, "This kid's surname is Wang, his name is Wang Meng!"

"Good!" Good! "Alright!" A few good words were enough to express Elder Han's pleasant surprise, "Good boy, you are the first 'genius' I met today. Un, not bad, you brat will have a great future, not bad, not bad at all! "Hurry up and go up!"

Being praised by the other party, Wang Meng was extremely happy. He smiled at Ge Chen, who he had just met, and gave him a look as if to tell him, "I'll be going up first. I'll wait for you. Go for it!"

Seeing that the Wang Meng that he knew had already passed the exam, Ge Chen felt happy for him but also prayed for him, "Oh, almighty deities, please bless me and protect a pitiful child like me. I will also pass the exam successfully. I beg you!"

After a silent prayer, Ge Chen suppressed the panic in his heart, looked up at the old man in front of him, and steeled his heart, "Come, quickly chase me down the mountain! I am ready! "

This is truly a little scoundrel. She clearly thought that she would be left behind, but she actually said such a thing, hehe … " "Huh?!" Elder Han touched Ge Chen's neck, then looked at the handsome youth in front of him, and extended his hand to touch his neck, "Yi, what is this thing?"

Hearing Elder Han's words, Ge Chen could only silently curse in his heart. Damn, this old fellow actually dared to say what he was? Dizzy!

"Hmm? A good thing? It's not like it's some good stuff! " Elder Han looked at Ge Chen and said to himself.

This made Ge Chen extremely depressed. He was a dignified young master of the Ge Family, yet here he was being talked to by an old thing, and that old thing was even referring to him, "Is this a good thing? It's not like it's some good stuff! "

Ge Chen could be considered to have resigned himself to his fate. It was just touching his neck anyway, and it wouldn't be bad. If the other party wanted to touch it, then so be it. Anyway, laozi has time.

Elder Han touched Ge Chen's neck randomly again, and even muttered, "Like gold, like wood, like water, like fire, like earth!" It's really strange! "

After looking for a while, he still could not find any results. "Non-metal, non-wood, non-water, non-fire, non-earth!" Elder Han muttered once again in doubt.

Ge Chen, on the other hand, felt extremely aggrieved and thought to himself, "What does this old thing want to do?" Could it be that you have some sort of special interest in me? "

After a period of time, Elder Han still didn't get any good results. With a somewhat doubtful tone, he said, "Alright, your spirit root is a bit strange. Go, you've barely passed."

Hearing this, Ge Chen was immediately overjoyed. In his heart, he no longer cared about that 'rude' action of the old fellow.

Haha! I passed! I can cultivate now, haha!

This was what Ge Chen shouted out the most in his heart, but to prevent himself from being treated like a lunatic and being thrown down the mountain, he knew that he had to hold it in, even though it was very hard to hold it back.

… …. … …. Finally … Amongst the hundreds of people, there were only a few qualified candidates. To be more accurate, there were only 18.

The eighteen of them then became the Xuan Zhen Sect's favorite and were allowed to practice magic techniques in the sect.

Ge Chen was without a doubt one of the lucky ones, but he did not know what kind of spiritual root he had. That Elder Han was also not clear, or else he would not be able to endlessly mutter to himself: Like metal, like wood, like water, like fire, like earth; non-metal, non-wood, non-water, non-fire, non-earth!
