Qixia Mountain was located within the Cloudcrane Mountain Range, which was fifteen kilometers east of the Linyuan City. Because of its extremely high altitude, it was covered by clouds and mist all year round, which was why it was named.

Qixia Mountain has a total of seven peaks, the highest peak being Cloud Piercing Peak. It is said that this mountain passes through nine layers of clouds, above the nine layers of clouds, and its altitude is so high that it is astonishing.

New disciples would be sent to the Qingyun Peak to cultivate, and the disciples of the Qingyun Peak were all disciples of the new generation, which had entered the sect in the last ten years.

The two young True Martial Sect disciples who were accompanying the guard hurried towards Qingyun Peak Propaganda first, with the carriage moving in the middle, and the other two young disciples following behind the carriage.

It would not be an easy feat to drive a carriage beneath the peak of the Qixia Mountain.

Not to mention the winding mountain road and the narrow mountain road, just the thick, floating clouds of the mountains alone made many drivers afraid to risk driving a carriage.

If not for this True Martial Sect disciple who often walked on the road of the Qixia Mountain, it would be really difficult to drive such a large carriage into the mountain road that was shrouded in floating clouds.

When they arrived at the mountain range of the Qixia Mountain, a burst of fresh air immediately lingered around them, causing the seven children sitting within the carriage to couldn't help but compete each other as they peek out of the carriage to take a look at the Qixia Mountain's scenery.

"Wow!" Have we arrived at the fairyland? I have long heard that the Qixia Mountain is unbearably beautiful, that it is filled with mist all year round and is extremely enchanting. Now that I have seen this cloud of profound energy, it is truly as beautiful as in the legends. " Mo Yuhan's intoxicated look made Limu's mouth go dry.

At this moment, Mo Yuhan and the cloud and mist outside the carriage had coincidentally formed a beautiful picture scroll, causing Limu's heart to throb inexplicably.

The carriage traveled in a zigzag way along the mountain road. Although they were disciples of True Martial Sect who often drove carriages, they couldn't help but drive them carefully in case the horses suddenly got scared and accidentally fell off the cliff.

After entering the boundaries of the Qixia Mountain, and walking on the winding mountain paths for four hours, they finally arrived at the Qingyun Peak, one of the seven main peaks of the Qixia Mountain.

The mountain range of the Qingyun Peak was not very high, and it was also not particularly dangerous.

The eight children alighted from the carriage, and the scene in front of them was completely different from the one they had seen on the road before.

There weren't many clouds on the peak of the Green Cloud Mountain. Only by looking into the distance would one be able to see the misty clouds.

On top of the peak of the Qingyun Peak Mountain, seven to eight grand and magnificent buildings stood tall and tall, as if they had been crafted by ghosts or gods.

Standing there and looking into the depths of the clouds, one could vaguely see towering buildings on the other peaks which were covered by the clouds.

Whether it was the towering stone door in front of his eyes, the huge stone steps formed from bluestone beneath his feet, or the imposing buildings that could be seen from afar, they all displayed the majesty of his True Martial Sect!

Under the guidance of the two young disciples, the eight children walked up the stairs and into the first courtyard.

The green wall that was over a hundred zhang long extended to the two sides of the mountain peak, reaching all the way to the precipitous edge of the cliff.

Limu was stunned by the scene in front of him. This was simply the legendary fairyland. If one was really fated to cultivate in this kind of place, it would be worth it even if they died!

Limu was obviously so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

Not to mention Limu, even the experienced and knowledgeable Mo Yuhan was already fascinated by the scene here and was looking forward to the future cultivation of True Martial Sect.

After passing through three walls, they finally arrived at the outside of a main hall that faced the main entrance.

Along the way, these seven children rarely saw any of the disciples that came in contact with each other. They just didn't know where these disciples usually cultivated.

Limu was confused, but wasn't Mo Yuhan the same as well?

There were two side halls that extended to the back of the main hall on both sides of the hall. There were two even larger pavilions behind them.

Outside the main hall, there were eight Giant Stone Pillar s supporting the entire hall. The hall's doors were divided into the main entrance and side entrance, and the main entrance was over thirty meters wide and fifty meters tall.

Creak …

The thick and heavy door was pushed open by two young disciples, and seven children were led inside the main hall.

In the center of the hall, there was a huge incense burner. At this moment, smoke was rising slowly from the incense burner and permeating the entire room. A burst of sandalwood fragrance rushed into the room as the door opened, spreading outwards.

The door of the hall was close to Limu's knees. He lifted his foot and stepped over the threshold. All seven children entered the main hall at the same time.

At this moment, there were nine old men sitting upright in the main hall. They looked at the seven children who had just stepped into the main hall.

There were four old men seated on either side of him, and an old man was also seated in the center.

Most of these elders were around the age of fifty. The elder sitting in the center of the hall, facing the door, was at least seventy years old.

Creak …

The massive main door followed the seven children into the main hall, which was then shut by two young disciples.

The eight children had never seen such a scene before. Although they knew that these elders were masters and elders of the Qingyun Peak, these children still felt somewhat uneasy.

Limu seemed to be slightly out of the ordinary. At this moment, he was searching all around for the arrangements. It seemed that he didn't feel unwell just because of the nine old men.

"Are you children from Mirror Prefecture?" the elder sitting in the middle asked.

A loud voice echoed throughout the hall.

Six of the eight children nodded indifferently. Only Limu and Mo Yuhan answered, "Yes!"

The elder sitting in the middle seat nodded his head in satisfaction. His gaze paused on Limu for a moment, then he looked at Limu with interest. He then looked at the other five boys separated by Mo Yuhan.

"What happened to your faces?" The old man smiled, then asked amiably.

The five boys on the other side all hung their heads a little, like children who had made a mistake.

At this moment, Limu raised his head and said, "Grandpa, can you not answer this question?"

It was the first time in all these years that that old man had heard someone call him grandpa. He seemed to like this name very much. He smiled and said, "Sure, of course, but can you answer my other question?"

Limu nodded heavily and said, "Sure, go ahead and ask!"

"Why are the other kids all dressed up and yours... "What about so many patches?" the old man asked with interest.

"This …" Limu didn't expect the old man in front of him to ask such a question. This made Limu a bit embarrassed. After all, he didn't want others to call him a beggar, but he was a beggar after all.

The old man saw that Limu was a bit hesitant, so he smiled and said, "Why don't you let me answer this question?"

"I believe that your family's situation is definitely not that good. Furthermore, you might have made a living by begging for money, or even escaped from the Fringe Wasteland all the way to the Linyuan City. Am I right?" The old man did not wait for Limu to speak and told him his guess.

Limu was surprised and said: "Grandfather, how did you know?! Are you a god?! "

Hearing Limu's words, the old man couldn't help but laugh out loud. The old men sitting on the side also laughed out loud. The wounds on your faces must have been caused by fighting on the road, right? Everything can be entered from the representation. This was also the case for cultivation. What potential and what personality a person had would determine his future prospects. You can't bully him just because he's a beggar. Maybe he's more expensive than any of you. One couldn't change one's innate conditions, but one could make up for it through hard work and hard work the day after tomorrow. Today is the first day that you all have entered the sect, and I shall be the peak elder of True Martial Sect. Today, I can be considered to have given you kids a small lesson, and in the future, I will need to rely on your own hard work in order to cultivate! "

The old man's words had greatly benefited Limu, and his admiration for the elder in the back mountain was even more apparent!

However, the other five boys didn't even listen to the words of the elder. They were worried that they would be punished by the old man.

After a pause, the old man looked at the old man sitting at the last seat on the left and said, "Deacon Ye, these seven children seem to have decent aptitudes. These seven children will be given to you in the future."

The last elder to the left immediately stood up and respectfully bowed to the peak elder to receive his orders, "Junior obeys elder's commands."

"En!" The Elder nodded and said, "Deacon Ye, take these children away."

The old man called Deacon Ye bowed to the Elder sitting on the peak once more before turning around and leaving his seat. He looked at the eight children gloomily and said coldly, "Follow me!"

Limu didn't have a good impression of Deacon Ye the first time he saw him, his face was stiff as if someone owed him silver taels. On the contrary, the elder gave Limu a kind and kind feeling, but after all, this elder was an elder of a peak, and it was impossible for him to get close to this elder.

The eight children followed closely behind Deacon Ye and left the main hall.

The nine elders sitting in the main hall were the high ranking members of the Qingyun Peak, led by the Peak Elder. The other eight elders were the deacons of this peak, responsible for passing down the cultivation methods to the new disciples.

There were eight cities in Mirror Prefecture, and each of the eight deacons were responsible for teaching the new disciples from one of the cities, seven official disciples and one honorary disciple. Each session of the True Martial Sect would accept fifty-six official disciples and eight honorary disciples.

Every year, the disciples taught by the eight deacons would hold a martial gathering amongst the disciples in the same season, and every four years, they would hold a competition to compete against all the disciples in the peak.

Every year, a chief disciple would be evaluated and sent to a higher level main peak to cultivate. This was also consistent with the development trend of Spirit Martial Realm's survival of the fittest.

This was the only way to select the most talented and outstanding martial artists!
