7223 Chapter 7221-
Lin Yi’s mouth twitched at the sight-it seemed like this elder Huang wasn’t all that impressive after all, doing one thing after another. People who were easily swayed by small things like this probably wouldn’t have much of an achievement.
This was indeed the case. Although this elder Huang had the title of an elder, he was actually only an elder of Foreign Affairs.
Usually, he was only in charge of guiding these preparatory disciples who were participating in the assessment. He did not have any real power. In terms of status, he was thousands of miles away from the real elders!
However, the Foreign Affairs elder was, after all, an elder of the sect. He was still much more respected than the branch Hall Masters outside, so Hall Master Sun had to curry favor with him.
“Yes, yes, yes, elder Huang is a noble man with unquestionable integrity. We’ll definitely pay attention to this in the future! However, these are the people who came to welcome elder Huang on their own initiative. They are all young people who hold great respect for elder Huang, so we shouldn’t be too hurtful, right?”
Hall Master Sun lied with his eyes wide open, as if he was speaking the truth,””If elder Huang doesn’t like it, we’ll block more of them in the future.”
“It’s like this? It’s not good to be cold to the People’s hearts. This is also a form of respect for our sword spring sect, so let’s not strike a blow!”
Elder Huang also smiled and nodded. He spoke in an extremely righteous manner,””Hall Master Sun, you’ve done a good job. In the future, you can do as you see fit. I’m not too sure, and it’s not convenient for me to say more.”
“I understand! Elder Huang, the journey must have been tiring. Why don’t you take a rest in the city? I’ve already prepared some wine, so how about we have some simple food before we set off?”
Hall Master Sun was smart enough to not bring up the previous matter and instead invited elder Huang into the city for a meal.
“No need! The journey is a bit rushed, and this Lord still has to go to several cities. I’ll come and disturb Hall Master Sun again next time if I have the opportunity!”
Elder Huang shook his head and casually cupped his hands.””If Hall Master Sun returns to the sect, you must come to me for a chat! I’ll be taking my leave today!”
Leader sun quickly returned the greeting, exchanging a few more words with a smile before directing Lin Yi and the rest to get on their flying spirit beasts!
“Everyone, I hope you can all pass the assessment smoothly and enter our sword spring sect to cultivate! Have a safe journey!”
After Hall Master Sun and the others had gone up, he said a few words of blessing with a smile before bidding elder Huang farewell.
There was a total of 18 people from Luling city who participated in the assessment this time. It was hard to say how many of them would successfully enter the sword spring sect, but the more people succeeded, the greater the contribution Hall Master Sun would make. Hence, he sincerely hoped that all of these people would be selected.
It was a pity that Luling city was located in a remote area, and the overall strength was weak. In the past, there were not many people who were recommended.
Hall Master Sun only hoped that there would be some changes this year, so that he could return to the sect as soon as possible and not have to stay in Luling city as a branch Hall Master!
Lin Yi and the others got on the dark flying spirit beast and casually found a place to sit. This spirit beast was quite huge, and its wide back was like a small square. Ten to twenty people couldn’t even sit in a corner.
After taking off, Lin Yi realized that there wasn’t a single trace of wind on the beast’s back, as if there was an invisible force field!
After careful observation, he discovered that this was the ability of the dark flying spirit beast itself. In the process of flying, its head directly broke through the air, causing the air flow to pass around its body. That was why its back appeared so calm!
Elder Huang stood at the forefront and did not pay any attention to these preparatory disciples who were going to participate in the assessment. It seemed that he felt that his status was higher and there was no need to pay attention to them.
The 18 of them formed small groups of twos and threes. Those who were familiar with each other gathered together and chatted in low voices, and no one went to disturb elder Huang.
“Sister hei ye, how much do you know about the sword spring sect’s assessment?”
Lin Yi had nothing to do, so he asked,”I don’t pay much attention to this, so I don’t know much. Sister hei ye, can you tell us a little?”
Other than Lin Yi and black wildflower, there was also the Wu yucao trio and Jin Yuan Bao. The six of them were sitting in a circle, and it was the largest group out of the eighteen of them. They all looked at black wildflower with interest after hearing Lin Yi’s words.
The Wu yucao trio was originally grassroots martial artists. They hunted some low-level dark spirit beasts all day to survive and never dared to think about entering the sword spring sect.
Jin Yuan Bao, on the other hand, did not have to worry about food and clothing. He did not think about asking about the news of the sword spring sect. This time, he was thrown by his family to participate in the assessment, but he did not expect to pass. He just wanted to gain some experience.
Therefore, black wildflower was probably the only one among the six who knew some inside information.
After all, she was determined to enter the sword spring sect, and she was even recommended as an inner sect disciple. She would definitely have some understanding of the sword spring sect’s assessment.
“Actually, there’s nothing much to say. As far as I know, the assessment method of the sword spring sect is different every year, so it’s not very reliable to use the experience of the past years to speculate! Especially since there’s an inner sect disciple recruitment this year, it’s even more different from the usual outer sect disciples!”
Black wildflower smiled and nodded, saying unhurriedly,””There should be more people taking part in the assessment this year. The sword spring sect’s sphere of influence covers the surrounding ten cities, and our Luling city is considered the most peripheral one. That’s why elder Huang came to pick us up first. He’ll go to the other cities to pick us up on the way back.”
“If that’s the case, there’s quite a number of people! Even if every place is about the same as our Luling city, there should be close to 200 people, right?”
Jin Yuan Bao touched his chubby chin and began to calculate.””I heard that this time, the number of disciples that the sword spring sect will recruit will not exceed thirty people, which means that we will only choose one out of six or seven people? Aiya, it seems like my fate of being eliminated can’t be changed!”
Lin Yi chuckled to himself. Jin Yuanbao was the young master of the gold yuan bank, so he was pretty good at calculating things like this. He just didn’t have enough confidence in himself.
“Brother Jin, don’t belittle yourself. Your strength is not bad!”
Lin Yi comforted. Yuanbao didn’t need that kind of comfort, so he smiled and waved his hand.
“Brother Sima, if we follow this elimination ratio, among the eighteen of us now, only you, miss Wu, and black wildflower will pass the assessment. The others are more uncertain. It seems that brother Sima will have to protect this little brother in the future!”
Jin Yuan Bao laughed and joked, but Chen Zhisheng’s expression was not good.
As Jin Yuan Bao said, the strongest of the eighteen were Lin Yi, Wu yucao, and black wildflower. Lu Butong and Nangong Yimeng were not weak either.
Ling Hanxue and Chen Zhisheng’s abilities were slightly inferior to Lu Butong and Nangong Yimeng, including Jin Yuan Bao ‘s!
However, both of them were martial artists who had experienced countless life and death battles. Unlike Lu Butong, Nangong Yimeng, and Jin Yuan Bao, they might be able to turn the tables when the time came for them to decide their fate!
