Chapter 1548: Chapter 1548: Assessment of the Ninth Generation Disciples
On the seats.
Ye Feng heard the voice full of confidence from the Elders present, and felt very gratified in his heart.
"Very good, our Misty Sect needs people like you who are ambitious!"
"The new year is coming, go and enjoy this beautiful moment. After midnight, I will give each of you a gift."
"Next, the recruitment of the ninth generation disciples will be entrusted to you. As for me, after the New Year, I will be in seclusion to refine the Nine-Turn Profound Pill."
"Meeting adjourned!"
With a wave of his sleeves, Ye Feng left the Sect Master’s Grand Hall, leaving only a graceful silhouette behind.
"Farewell, Sect Leader!"
Everyone rose together and bowed, standing at the entrance of the Sect Master’s Grand Hall, watching Ye Feng leave. Then, they looked at Protector Fox Consort Feifei, who was responsible for the assessment of the ninth generation disciples.
Gong Qingqiu asked, "Protector, do you have any arrangements for the assessment of the ninth generation disciples?"
Hu Feifei grinned slyly, "No hurry, first spread the news that in one month we will officially begin recruiting the ninth generation disciples. As for the time before that, I plan to prepare the exam questions."
"Exam questions?"
The elders were stunned, all unsure of what this was.
"Exam questions are for the scholars to be assessed. Divided into literary and martial sections, the top ten thousand scorers will have the chance to be admitted to the sect."
Hu Feifei explained.
Everyone nodded thoughtfully.
"Next, you all go and get busy, I’ll handle the preparation of the exam questions."
Hu Feifei smiled and turned to leave.
The elders exchanged glances and, after a moment, bid farewell to one another and left the Sect Master’s Grand Hall.
...
In the bedroom.
Ye Feng sat at the table by the window.
Soon, midnight passed.
However, the system’s prompt sound did not ring, but Ye Feng was not in a hurry and continued to admire the night view, quietly awaiting the arrival of the New Year’s blessings.
[Ding! As the new year arrives, wish the Sect Leader good fortune and smooth success, unlocking the recruitment permission for the ninth generation disciples, wishing you happiness every day!]
[Ding! New Year brings great blessings, awarding each member of the sect a New Year gift.]
The next moment, countless flowers fell.
They landed precisely in front of every Elder, Steward, Spiritual Beast, and Disciple in the Misty Sect, and upon opening them, they found New Year gifts inside.
Even Ye Feng received a gift.
"A piece of candy, a large red packet containing an amulet, a photo of myself, a written New Year’s blessing to different people, not bad!"
Ye Feng smiled and ate the candy.
The amulet was tucked into his sleeve, which could emit a continuous fragrance to keep the cultivator’s energy abundant, preventing demonic influence easily.
After putting away the remaining gifts, Ye Feng applied a ten-fold Time Array to himself and began to cast spells.
The reason he could gather spiritual medicine to refine over ten thousand Nine-Turn Profound Pills within three days was naturally not under the usual time flow but by applying ten times time acceleration, equivalent to consuming a month’s worth.
Ye Feng wanted to further accelerate the time flow.
However, particle speed was limited.
Even if he increased the time flow on himself to a thousand times, the speed at which external particles flowed in while using the Hand of Myriad Transformations couldn’t keep up, making it impossible to craft too many Frost Cold Lotus or other Immortal Elixirs.
Ten times is the best flow rate.
Crack, crack, crack!
As Ye Feng cast the spell, a Frost Cold Lotus immediately appeared at his fingertips, causing the surrounding air to freeze and creating large amounts of blue-white ice crystals.
With a casual flick, the Frost Cold Lotus he conjured fell to the ground, and he continued to cast spells.
The entire process was quite monotonous.
...
The next morning.
Hu Feifei stood atop the Thousand-Year Ancient Pine, hands placed in front of her mouth like a trumpet, and shouted a voice strong enough to spread throughout the known regions of the Twin Universe.
"In one month, the Misty Sect will recruit the ninth generation disciples. Regardless of the number of applicants, there will be a preliminary selection, and only the top one hundred thousand will have the qualification for the final assessment."
The voice caused a sensation across various realms.
"Why is this assessment different from before?"
"And, the host is actually the Misty Sect’s Protector Fox Consort Feifei, no longer Whitefloat City’s City Lord Gong Qingqiu, even the rules have all changed."
"What should we do?"
Everyone was anxious.
Dang!
The Talent Divine Bell gently vibrated, dispersing ten thousand virtual shadows floating above Whitefloat City, forming sub-venues for selecting disciples.
"I feel this assessment is extraordinary."
A certain Immortal Emperor said solemnly.
According to previous circumstances, there used to be tens of millions of talented individuals participating in Misty Sect’s admission assessment, usually, at least a million could enter the final round.
But this time, only one hundred thousand!
This elimination rate is too high!
...
Half a month later.
On the summit of Feilai Peak, in the Elders’ Grand Hall.
Hu Feifei sat in the main seat, smiling, "Dear Elders, rest assured, I have already prepared the exam questions, but for confidentiality, you cannot look at them yet."
The elders exchanged confused glances.
They were quite curious about the exam questions.
"Why can’t we look? We are not participating in the disciple assessment, and we are all core elders, shouldn’t we be allowed to see the questions?"
Ling Zhiwei rolled her eyes.
"Don’t worry, my exam questions are definitely fine, I have received the Sect Leader’s true teachings, in terms of being cheeky, he can’t hold a candle to me!"
Hu Feifei said proudly.
Everyone’s faces turned speechless.
Soon, it was the end of the month.
Within Whitefloat City, fifty million talents had gathered to participate in the ninth generation disciple assessment, and they all passed the Fate Purple Gold Bell’s test.
"Fifty million people!"
"Isn’t that way too many?"
"I originally thought after those ancient forces were established, they would attract those talents to other forces, but who knew they still came to Misty Sect."
"I’ve heard, Misty Sect not only has Great Pan Peach that can directly advance someone to One-Turn Quasi-Saint, but also Nine-Turn Profound Pill enabling someone to directly become Immortal Emperor Realm!"
"What does that mean?"
"Joining Misty Sect means the lowest starting point in the future is a One-layered Immortal Emperor!"
"Wow, that’s so exaggerated?"
Everyone was incredulous.
Just entering Misty Sect can achieve Immortal Emperor status?
Others train all their lives outside, not to mention breaking through to Immortal Emperor, even becoming Immortal Venerable is hard, but entering Misty Sect can grant Emperor accomplishments.
It’s simply absurd!
This is why those talents who should have been drawn to other forces returned.
"Greetings, everyone!"
Hu Feifei, responsible for hosting this assessment, stepped forward, with hundreds of Elders behind her, each a pure Immortal Emperor Realm, exuding dense aura, bringing massive pressure to all strong beings.
"Such solid foundations!"
"Truly worthy of Misty Sect’s Immortal Emperors."
"If I hadn’t joined the Ancient Dragon Court already, I would want to switch to Misty Sect too."
The strong whispered.
At this moment, Hu Feifei continued:
"Without unnecessary words, let’s start with the preliminary selection of the ninth generation disciples, to filter ten thousand from fifty million talents who applied to participate in the final assessment."
"This filtering will use a literary test."
"Next, each of you will have your Divine Soul separate, entering a Dimensional Void that can’t be interfered with externally, to answer the test questions."
"The top ten thousand scorers will advance."
Upon hearing this, everyone was astonished.
A literary test?
Do they think this is an imperial examination?
Everyone felt bewildered.
Hu Feifei, however, felt indifferent and waved her sleeves, enveloping the fifty million talents in pale pink light, separating their Divine Souls.
In this situation, no one could give them remote guidance.
That means, no one could cheat.
"Child, it’s up to you." Atop one Floating Island, Supreme Elder Xue Yu looked at Zhu Nian Nian, who had her eyes tightly shut, silently encouraging her.
