Martial Conquest of the Nine Desolates-Chapter 58 - 056 Gathering of Geniuses

58: Chapter 056 Gathering of Geniuses

58 -056 Gathering of Geniuses

One by one, giant ships thunderously landed, and Xiao Ye turned his head to look, discovering that there were a total of ten ships.

“These giant ships should have rushed here from other counties of Black Dragon Country,” Xiao Ye thought to himself.

The Chongyang Sect’s entry test was held across the ten counties of Black Dragon Country to recruit disciples on the same day.

As for the Imperial City of Black Dragon Country, it’s under the control of the royal family, so sect recruitment generally avoids the Imperial City on purpose.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

From those ten giant ships, many figures jumped down, all led by men in silver robe elder attire.

“Gu Chudong, Qing Feng, why aren’t you speaking?” The rough voice belonged to a burly man with a face full of stubble.

“Damn, I’m so unlucky.

The White Cloud County I’m in charge of is so remote.

This time, the Son of County is only at the Postnatal Realm Ninth Layer Middle Stage,” he said while observing the team from Dahong County.

When he saw Xiao Ye and Ye Wuhen, his eyes lit up.

“Wow, one at the Postnatal Limit, and another close to it.

The Son of County from Dahong County should be one of these two, right?”

“Have the number of acupoints they possess reached the upper class?” The stubbled man hurriedly asked.

Before Gu Chudong and Qing Feng could answer, a cold-faced man walked over.

“Hmph, just the Postnatal Limit.

In Dashen County, I’ve recruited a genius who stepped into the Innate Realm, and this person even touched a trace of Martial Arts True Intent!” the cold man said.

What!

As soon as these words were spoken, all the silver-robed elders who jumped down from the giant ships were shocked to the core, shouting in disbelief.

The fact that the Son of County in Dashen County stepped into the Innate Realm was already surprising enough.

Yet, he even touched a trace of Martial Arts True Intent!

This is definitely one of the most terrifying individuals ever recruited by the Chongyang Sect.

Xiao Ye was slightly surprised too, for one must first reach the Postnatal Limit, like Ye Wuhen, and then possess the precious Acupoint Charging Skill to step into the Innate Realm.

People like that usually have a deep background; otherwise, how could they obtain the Acupoint Charging Skill?

Moreover, the person also touched a trace of Martial Arts True Intent.

It must be noted that without acquiring the Xuanqi Flame Saber, he couldn’t have mastered even ten percent of the Flame True Intent.

This shows that the Son of County of Dashen County is indeed a genius among geniuses.

“How many acupoints did this person detect?” The stubble-faced man asked after a moment of stupor.

“Twelve!” the cold man replied.

The scene fell silent again, and everyone’s gaze turned to the cold man standing behind.

A young boy stood there proudly, handsome in appearance with a commanding presence, his eyes glinting with a wild light, and his aura was vast.

“This person is Bai Meng, the Son of County of Dashen County!” the cold man loudly declared.

At this moment, everyone memorized this name in their hearts.

Especially the young boys and girls present; the name Bai Meng felt like a mountain pressing down on them, making it hard for them to breathe.

Bai Meng’s cultivation level, the number of acupoints, and the Martial Arts True Intent, which they barely understood, left them all in awe.

“He only touched a trace of Martial Arts True Intent, which is far less than my ten percent of Flame True Intent,” Xiao Ye smiled slightly.

As for his twelve acupoints, perhaps others saw it as a lot.

However, to Xiao Ye, it was not worth mentioning.

With a monster like Bai Meng around, the silver-robed elders lost interest in comparison.

Soon, a silver-robed elder in charge of guiding appeared and led a thousand young boys and girls to a square, beginning their instruction.

“First of all, congratulations on passing the Chongyang Sect’s test, but not everyone can become a sect disciple,” the guiding elder’s voice echoed across the square.

“Aside from the top ten from each county’s test, others can only become registered disciples, responsible for the daily chores within the sect.”

Whoa!

Upon hearing this, there was an uproar in the square, with many young ones showing dissatisfaction.

“Why should registered disciples handle the sect’s daily chores?”

They came to Chongyang Sect to gain powerful Combat Techniques and Cultivation Techniques, but the guiding elder’s words were far from their imagination.

The guiding elder’s eyes shot out two sharp glints: “Hmph, if you’re not satisfied, you can leave Chongyang Sect.

I definitely won’t stop you!”

As the words just fell, the sound of dissatisfaction gradually quieted down.

Even being a registered disciple was better than leaving Chongyang Sect.

“Take them away!” With a wave of the guiding elder’s hand, several young men immediately came over, taking away nine hundred young boys and girls.

Shao Yan, before leaving, couldn’t help but look back at Xiao Ye, a face full of reluctance and sorrow.

Looking at the hundred people remaining on the square, the guiding elder continued, “You shouldn’t be too happy either.

Getting into the top ten only makes you outer disciples of Chongyang Sect, with limited privileges. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

If your cultivation level doesn’t meet requirements, you can also be demoted to registered disciples.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ye’s heart skipped a beat.

Chongyang Sect was indeed strict with its disciples.

After finishing the speech, the guiding elder led the crowd away from the square and into a valley.

This valley was extremely broad, and rows of houses were built closely, all in the form of courtyards.

“This is where you new recruits will stay.

Go in on your own.

As for the special rewards for the ten Sons of County, they’ll be delivered in three days,” the guiding elder said and then left gracefully.

“What will the special rewards for the Sons of County be?” Xiao Ye felt a bit anticipative.

After the guiding elder left, the hundred young boys and girls headed toward the houses.

Xiao Ye randomly chose a house and went inside, finding nothing but a bed and a few chairs, along with several sets of replacement robes and nothing more.

On the bed, there were also two booklets, which Xiao Ye curiously picked up.

“Acupoint Charging Skill!” Xiao Ye was startled, his eyes widening as he looked at one of the booklets.

The Acupoint Charging Skill, which he found extremely precious, was casually placed on the bed.

Chongyang Sect was indeed wealthy and didn’t bother worrying about leaks.

“The other is the Chongyang Sect Disciple Handbook,” Xiao Ye’s eyes twinkled, and he started flipping through it.

It turned out that within Chongyang Sect, there are three types of disciples: the highest is the direct disciple, followed by inner sect disciples, then outer disciples, and finally registered disciples.

Furthermore, an outer disciple must pass through a place called the Puppet Tower before the age of twenty-five to become an inner sect disciple, or else they will be demoted to a registered disciple.

“It’s really strict,” Xiao Ye thought after finishing the booklet, feeling curious about what kind of place the Puppet Tower was.

However, with his current cultivation level, it’s impossible to get through the Puppet Step.

It’s more important to first step into the Innate Realm.

Soon, Xiao Ye noticed some commotion outside, likely his “roommates” moving in, but he didn’t mind and continued to immerse himself in cultivation.

A few hours later, Xiao Ye opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath.

“In about ten days, my cultivation level will reach the Postnatal Limit, and then I can attempt to charge the acupoints and step into the Innate Realm!” Xiao Ye was visibly excited.

Back in Green Sun Town, the Innate Realm seemed very distant, but now it was within reach.

Knock, knock!

Just then, Xiao Ye’s door was suddenly knocked, and a voice came through: “Brother, since we’ll be roommates from now on, how about coming out for a drink together?”

Hearing this, Xiao Ye was stunned, realizing his stomach was slightly rumbling with hunger.

Creaaak!

Xiao Ye got up and opened the door, finding a chubby boy standing there, dressed luxuriously with shrewd sparkles in his small eyes.

“Brother, I truly admire you.

We couldn’t stop ourselves from being excited about entering Chongyang Sect, and yet you’re buried in cultivation,” the chubby boy said in a familiar tone, wrapping an arm around Xiao Ye’s shoulder and steering him toward the courtyard.

On the stone table in the courtyard, there was already an array of fine wine and food, and standing to the side were two more boys.

“As we’ll be roommates from now on, let me introduce myself first, I’m Yu Fang,” the chubby boy smiled.

“I’m Li Wufeng,” the scholarly-looking boy with a gentle smile said.

“I…

I’m Long Shaojie,” the short-statured boy said, blushing.

“I’m Xiao Ye,” Xiao Ye was pleasantly surprised by how warm and genuine the three boys were, making him feel affectionate towards them.

The chubby boy, Yu Fang, pulled Xiao Ye to sit at the stone table and said, “Seeing as we’ll be living together for perhaps seven or eight years, we should determine the pecking order, right?”

Xiao Ye felt at a loss.

Were they planning to become inner sect disciples after seven or eight years?

It was clearly recorded in the Chongyang Sect Disciple Handbook that the fastest time an outer disciple advanced to inner sect disciple was exactly four years, a record still unbroken to this day.

Quickly, the four of them shared their ages, discovering Yu Fang was the oldest, followed by Li Wufeng, Xiao Ye was third, and the shy Long Shaojie was the youngest.

“Haha, so I’m the eldest now.

If you ever need money or women, just come to the eldest,” Yu Fang waved his hand with boldness, making Xiao Ye sweat profusely.

“Really?

Eldest brother, you have many beauties?” Second brother Li Wufeng asked with shimmering eyes, his scholarly air vanished.

“Tsk tsk, second brother, we’re of the same kind, huh?

Come by my room later, I’ll show you some good things,” Yu Fang and Li Wufeng exchanged glances and laughed, birds of a feather.

“Good things?

Big brothers, I want to see too,” Long Shaojie said, gathering his courage.

“Go, go, go, kids should stay aside,” Yu Fang and Li Wufeng said in unison.

Indeed, Long Shaojie looked just like a child.

Xiao Ye felt a bit speechless, not bothering with them, grabbing some wine from the table.

Soon, the four ate and drank together.

With Yu Fang and Li Wufeng around, the atmosphere was very congenial, bringing the four of them closer, calling each other by familial titles.

Xiao Ye found it interesting and didn’t refuse.

Through the conversation, Xiao Ye was surprised to find that these three were very impressive.

Second brother Li Wufeng was a Son of County-level genius, while fourth brother Long Shaojie was nearly next to that level, and even though eldest brother Yu Fang was a bit behind, he placed sixth in their county’s competition.

Upon learning Xiao Ye was also a Son of County, Yu Fang burst into laughter, “Haha, in our courtyard, we actually have two geniuses at the Son of County’s level!”

The four drank late into the night before returning to their rooms to rest.

The next day, while Xiao Ye was diligently training, eldest brother Yu Fang suddenly barged in, his face looking very upset and said, “Third brother, tell me, did you only detect one acupoint in the entry test?”
