Immortals, don't watch dramas

Chapter 2672 Everyone Takes Position

The once famous Su family of cultivation had long been lost in the torrent of time, and the Su Yuan lineage had evolved into a new system by now.

Today, the Su Yuan lineage is also known as the Su Li clan. "Su" is their past origin and "Li" is their current surname.

It is impossible to verify why "Su" was changed to "Li". There must have been a reason for it, and it has no meaning. After all, everyone in the world knows that all the disciples of Suyuan have the surname Li.

Although almost all members of the Zuli Sect have the same surname, they are not like many families in the world of cultivation that are linked by blood, but rather an organization linked by inheritance.

Some people may wonder, isn't the so-called sect also held together by inheritance? Masters pass on their skills to apprentices, fathers pass on their skills to sons, and from generation to generation, what is passed on is naturally inheritance. After all, in the world of cultivation, strength and ability are the most important.

But that is different. The bond of the Zuli disciples is real. It is said that there are tens of thousands of Zuli disciples, but there are only a few hundred direct members with the surname "Li". The rest can only be called outer disciples.

It is said that the Su Yuan lineage would select talented people between the ages of three and five to enter the sect every once in a while, and concentrate on learning the knowledge of formations before their bodies reach the threshold of cultivation in the world of cultivation. Of course, this is also an important inspection period, and it is necessary to eliminate those who do not meet the standards, and the process is even more cruel than outsiders imagine.

During this period, they are called "seeds" and cannot be considered as Su Li disciples. Then, when they are about fifteen years old, they will participate in the internal assessment to determine their true identity in Su Yuan. Only the "seeds" who are truly recognized by the Inner Sect Supervisory Committee can truly become Su Li disciples and become a member of this ancient heritage.

As for the disciples who were given the surname "Li", they were the real core disciples, also known as "clan children". Clan children were also divided into different levels, including apprentice, master, clan leader, ancestor, and the legendary source branch. Each level up required many tests before they could gain their own foothold in Su Li, because only those who were truly capable could inherit the legacy left by the ancients.

Therefore, in Su Li, blood relationship and master-apprentice inheritance are the most useless things. People without talent, no matter if you are the direct descendant of Li Zong or even Li Zu, cannot be named "Li". Only those who pass the assessment and are recognized by the clan are worthy of this surname.

As the Su Yuan lineage's extremely important event to the outside world, the Formation Tracing Conference naturally could not be hosted by casually sending low-level disciples. In order to ensure that this grand event that could represent the Su Yuan lineage could be successfully held, they even sent out two "Li Zong" to attend.

The old man who was speaking on behalf of the Su Yuan lineage was Li Yi, a member of the Li clan. He was a real out-of-body stage expert and the most powerful person present. As soon as he spoke, even though his words contained some warnings, the people below, who had their own thoughts, calmed down for a while - at least on the surface, that was true.

Seeing that this group of "troublemakers" finally calmed down, Li snorted. Although the visitors are guests, they should not forget that this is their territory now. They took great pains to hold this origin tracing conference not to quarrel with these people.

Facts have proven that strength is the iron rule of the world of cultivation. Face, disapproval, and even hatred right in front of you must all be suppressed in the face of absolute strength.

"This is also my fault. You all have come from thousands of miles away to attend this meeting, but you haven't had a sip of tea in such a long time. It's normal to feel annoyed. Come, please have some tea." The old man stroked his long beard, then flicked his sleeves, and two rows of desks appeared out of thin air.

Looking at the tea sets neatly arranged on the table that were even slightly steaming, everyone looked at each other in surprise.

All right, now that things have come to this, we can only sit down. These big shots did not feel embarrassed at all, and sat down naturally.

Now there are thirteen people, plus the host Li who is in charge of the backstage, a total of fourteen formation masters, each taking a seat in the seats that have been prepared for them long ago, officially kicking off today's highlight. ——————————————

"Phew, the atmosphere just now was so scary. I thought there was going to be a fight."

"What a pity, we are too far away and can't hear what they said at all. It seems like something interesting happened just now."

"What could it be? Looking at the people who led the conflict, they are familiar faces. It's probably another old, rotten thing."

"That's not right. Look carefully. There's a new character this time. Why is Xuantian Sword Sect clashing with Wanbaolan Sect again?!"

"I recognize the one from Xuantian Sword Sect, but the one from Wanbaolan Sect looks unfamiliar. Who recognized him just now? Can you tell me?"

"What are they talking about? Is there anyone who knows lip reading?!"

"It's useless to know lip reading, but there is a ban on the damn hosting platform. For the sake of taboo, the Venerable can only see a blurry image."

"There seem to be more people coming this time, and it's much faster. I remember it took half a day to wait for everyone to arrive last time."

"Finally we're sitting down. It's time to get down to business."

The people below couldn't hear the sound because the host platform was set up so that they couldn't clearly see what was happening above. Naturally, they had no way of knowing about the childish disputes between the elders that were no different from those between the younger generations.

Anyway, after a period of meaningless time wasted, the venue finally returned to order. The grandmasters took their positions, and the onlookers also turned their attention to the host platform. All the people who were supposed to appear were present, and the show was about to begin.

"Oh, there are quite a few people here."

"—it's going to be fun today."

The young man with elegant appearance slightly raised the corners of his mouth, but there was no smile in his eyes, which were so dark and deep that not a single light seemed to penetrate them.

Somewhere below, a female cultivator hidden in the crowd seemed to have sensed something, but she still tried hard to restrain herself from looking up in the direction that made her feel tingling.

The stage has been set, and I think a certain lunatic who has been secretly watching for a long time will be satisfied and take action immediately, probably.
