Chapter 140 The Frustrated Person (Please subscribe and vote)

Taiyuan Street in Beiyuanzhou City.

Before the 15th of every month, Taiyuan Street is quite lively.

Because on the fifteenth of every month, all the Taoist temples in Beiyuan Prefecture would send disciples who met the standards to Taiyuan Academy to take the entrance examination to the Taiyi Dao sect.

Of course, this is not the busiest time for Taiyuan Street.

The busiest time on Taiyuan Street is when Taiyi Dao Sect recruits disciples once every three years. At that time, the entire Beiyuan Province will send people who meet the Taiyi Dao Sect's admission standards to participate in the assessment.

At that time, there were huge crowds of people, and it was very difficult to get in and out. The entire assessment process lasted a very long time, and more disciples were recruited.

That situation is a little different from the assessment that Shi Yi and others are participating in now. A large number of disciples are recruited every three years, including menial disciples and outer disciples, and the number of these two combined is very large.

Of course, the recruitment standards for these people are not that high. There is no requirement to break through the Yin Shen realm before the age of 25. After all, recruiting these people is just to give them a chance. The main purpose of Taiyi Dao Sect is to see if there are any talented people among these people.

The entrance examination for Taiyi Dao that Shi Yi and others came to participate in was not an examination for menial disciples and outer disciples, but an examination for inner disciples. After passing the examination, they could directly enter the inner sect.

This is also a direct channel that Taiyi Dao Sect provides to various major Taoist temples. Of course, the standard for entering this direct channel is not low. If one can meet the standard, he or she is already a genius in Taoist practice.

The large-scale recruitment of disciples by Taiyi Dao Sect every three years is actually a way for Taiyi Dao Sect to dismiss a group of disciples who do not meet the requirements. By recruiting a group of people and dismissing a group of people, the number of people is kept in a delicate balance, which will not make the number of people in the sect too large and prevent different voices in the court.

The Taiyi Dao Sect has assessments for both menial disciples and outer disciples. If they fail to meet the standards of the Taiyi Dao Sect within a certain time limit, they will be expelled.

Recruiting these menial disciples and outer disciples is just to give them an opportunity. Those who can seize the opportunity can naturally stay in Taiyi Dao Sect and rise with the help of Taiyi Dao Sect. Those who cannot seize the opportunity will naturally be of no use to them.

Of course, this is also an attempt by Taiyi Dao Sect. After all, among these people, there may be a few geniuses who, if trained, can become the backbone of Taiyi Dao Sect and serve Taiyi Dao Sect.

Song Jing took Shi Yi and set out early in the morning. At noon, they arrived at Taiyuan Street and finally stayed near Taiyuan Courtyard.

Because he is only thirteen now, and there are still two days before the Taiyi Dao assessment, he can only wait.

Song Jing will not leave until Shi Yi completes the assessment.

Previously, Shi Yi and others met many people from Taoist temples in the inn after entering the city. In the inn near Taiyuanyuan, people from major Taoist temples in Beiyuanzhou could be seen almost everywhere.

The Taoist robes worn by these people are different, but the overall style is similar.

Of course, there are also some people with different identities and clothing. In Song Jing's words, they are from outside Beiyuanzhou, and they also come to participate in the Taiyi Taoist assessment, but there are relatively few of these people; the identities of these people seem to be people with certain potential recruited by the Taiyi Taoist when they are traveling outside.

This depends on fate. There are not many such people. Most of them are disciples of major Taoist temples in Beiyuan Prefecture.

While waiting for the Taiyi Dao sect assessment, Song Jing also took Shi Yi to meet several of his friends in Beiyuanzhou City, so that Shi Yi could ask these people for help if he encountered any trouble in the future.

He said that if he encountered some minor troubles, these people could help him, but as for major troubles, that was not certain.

Only when the relationship reaches a certain level and there are interests involved can it be possible to deal with big troubles.

As for the remaining time, Shi Yi can practice with peace of mind.

Letting Shi Yi make some friends is just a matter of convenience. The key is to pass the Taiyi Dao assessment.

If you fail to pass the Taiyi Dao assessment, all these arrangements will be meaningless.

Muhua Tower.

This is a very famous brothel in Beiyuanzhou City, and it is also the favorite place for entertainment for the dignitaries in the city.

The melodious sound of stringed instruments drifts out from the buildings and pavilions, which is fascinating and makes passers-by on the road unable to help but look back, wanting to find out what is going on. The room shrouded in gauze is faintly filled with the fragrance of flowers, which is fascinating.

Accompanied by the fragrance of rouge, it can arouse the desire of passers-by and make them want to find out more.

On the elegant pavilion inside the building, he stared intently at the beauty in ragged clothes dancing on the stage inside the building.

The pavilions were filled with people in luxurious clothes, their eyes blurry.

"The road on Taiyuan Street is blocked again. When I came here today, I had to ask the driver to change lanes."

Zhao Chengxuan, a concubine of the Zhao family in Beiyuanzhou City, said with a depressed look on his face that he came a little late and was fined three glasses of wine.

He didn't care about drinking, but about drinking as a penalty.

He doesn't like the word "punishment".

In the Zhao family, the eldest lady disliked him very much and always made him kneel as punishment for various small mistakes, which made him have a very bad reputation in the family, as if he only knew how to do wrong things. She also used this as an excuse to preach to the servants in the family, which made Zhao Chengxuan even more dissatisfied and he hated the word punishment.

Today he was punished to kneel at home again, which made him very upset. He forgot that the fifteenth day of the lunar month was almost approaching, and when he came here, he did not avoid the route of Taiyuan Street.

"It's almost the fifteenth, and the Taiyi Dao Sect is recruiting disciples again. There are too many cars and horses on Taiyuan Street, and the road must be blocked. I took another route in advance."

"Otherwise, you'll have to drink the same penalty wine as Brother Zhao!"

Xu Zhiyuan, the second son of the Xu family, said with a smile.

Although it was not yet the fifteenth, he had anticipated this and asked the driver to make a circle in advance, so the journey was very smooth.

His situation at home was slightly better than Zhao Chengxuan's, but only slightly. Most of the time, he was still restricted.

Especially when he wanted to do something practical, there were so many obstacles that made it difficult for him to accomplish anything.

"The Taiyi Dao Sect has recruited so many disciples over the years and has become increasingly powerful. Those who are able to come and participate in the assessment this time are all masters who have condensed their Yin Spirits and broken through the realm of driving objects."

"Each of them is a genius in Taoism practice. After joining the Taiyi Dao Sect, they are likely to rise to prominence."

Li Yanchen said with emotion.

He was raised by Mother Wusheng, and he was very clear about the power of the Taiyi Dao Sect.

Unlike the Wusheng Sect, which was condemned by everyone, the Taiyi Dao Sect was the strongest sect in Beiyuan Province. They recruited disciples openly throughout the entire Beiyuan Province, and even the imperial court had no objection.

In Beiyuan Prefecture, those who have achieved success in Taoism all want to join the Taiyi Dao Sect.

This situation is what many people in the Wusheng Sect dream of, and they are eager to take over.

Unfortunately, the existence of the Wusheng Sect is naturally incompatible with the Great Zhou Royal Family. Even if the Wusheng Sect has masters in the Zuwang realm, it cannot establish its own sect normally, let alone openly recruit disciples in the entire Beiyuan Province.

Their actions were all carried out secretly, and they recruited disciples by force using various means. Their nature was completely different from that of the Taiyi Dao Sect.

This time he is still staying in Beiyuanzhou City, which is also a task specially assigned to him by the Mother Wusheng.

The two people in front of him, Zhao Chengxuan, the illegitimate son of the Zhao family, and Xu Zhiyuan, the second son of the Xu family, are one of the targets he wants to win over, and they are also backup personnel to serve the Wusheng Sect in the future.

As for whether it can be used, we will talk about it later.

In the words of the Mother of No Birth, the hidden players that had been trained before were of too low status and were of no use.

It would be better to reshuffle the cards and develop some potential hidden players, one of whom can be worth thousands of people.

Li Yanchen was also very optimistic about the people chosen by Wusheng Laomu, because although their identities seemed awkward, they were only temporary. Sometimes, a change in circumstances could lead to a drastic change in one's status.

Li Yanchen was left behind to take charge of this matter, so he was naturally very familiar with the situation.

As for the Mother of No Birth, she is not in Beiyuan Prefecture. She has found several good partners and is discussing cooperation matters.

Although the previous attack on the county and prefecture towns had caused considerable losses to the Wusheng Sect, its reputation had also spread, causing many forces to want to cooperate with them secretly.

The Mother of No Birth also has her own arrangements, and naturally arranged for people to contact her. She has already selected a good partner, and she went there in person to confirm whether the selected person meets her requirements.

"It's a pity that you and I don't have the talent for cultivation. Otherwise, joining the Taiyi sect to cultivate could also change our status in the family."

"It's difficult to practice Taoism, it's difficult to practice Taoism!"

Zhao Chengxuan drank another glass of wine and laughed at himself.

Being bullied everywhere at home, he naturally wanted to change, but he didn't have the ability to do so.

He had average talent in martial arts, and his family didn't give him much money to practice martial arts.

As for practicing Taoism, he has no talent.

Reading is also average.

He could only suffer bullying at home and become a member of the eldest lady's housekeeper.

He didn't like it, but it was useless.

Every time he saw those who came to participate in the Taiyi Dao Sect's entrance examination, he couldn't help but show envy in his eyes.

If possible, he would really like to exchange identities with the other party.

Unfortunately, he could only think about it.

"The talent required for cultivation is too high. Just to calm the mind and enter a state of meditation is not something that ordinary people can do. My third cousin is a scholar after all, but unfortunately, when his talent for cultivation was tested, he was unable to complete the meditation practice."

"The person who tested me said my third cousin's mind was too confused!"

Xu Zhiyuan said with a wry smile.

In the Xu family, with the eldest brother around, he could only honestly be the second son of the Xu family, and everything was based on the eldest brother.

The family has always been considering the eldest brother's future, and they don't spend that much time on him.

Sometimes, the elders in the family would even specifically hint to him not to think too much and just be a good boy who was the second son of the Xu family.

Frustrated people always like to listen to music in brothels and make friends with other frustrated people.

This is also the reason why the three of them became friends.

Li Yanchen took the initiative to contact the two, used a new identity, and made up a story, making his situation worse than the other two, which aroused their empathy.

Of course, before he made up the story, it became true, so he was naturally not afraid of other people investigating.

In addition, his method of cultivation is different from that of other Wusheng believers, so the Divine Police Department's action did not find him. This is also the reason why he appeared openly in Beiyuanzhou City.

He has a pretty good grasp of the situation of these two people. He just needs to continue guiding them, and then they will become part of the Wusheng Sect without realizing it.

These people need power, and the Wusheng Sect has plenty of means to help them gain power.

As for the situation within his family, it is very easy to resolve.

Because there are not many people suppressing these two people, as long as those people encounter accidents, these two people can take advantage of it to come forward, and then gradually erode their families, making them also a part of the Wusheng Sect.

Although this plan will take some time, it is much better than the consumables produced before!

In the words of Wusheng Laomu, "Only things that are carefully crafted can last."

fifteen.

Taiyuan Courtyard.

Song Jing brought Shi Yi into Taiyuan Academy. After submitting the assessment token, they began to wait in line.

There are more than 300 people coming for the assessment this time.

Some people are like Shi Yi, whose Taoist cultivation has just broken through the realm of driving objects and come to participate in the entry examination of Taiyi Dao.

Some people had already broken through the realm of driving objects, but failed to pass the entrance examination of Taiyi Dao Sect. Now their age has not exceeded the Taiyi examination standard, so they come again to participate in the entrance examination of Taiyi Dao Sect.

Of the two, there are more people who do the latter.

Although it is difficult to condense the Yin Spirit and break through the realm of driving away objects before the age of 25, there are many people who do this throughout the Beiyuan Province.

Shi Yi had never seen most of the people who came here to participate in the Taiyi Taoist entrance examination. The familiar people he had met in the inn before were almost gone.

This is also related to the route they took here. The time arrangements for participating in the Taiyi Dao assessment are similar, which is why they met in the inn.

Among those who participated in the assessment, Shi Yi found that most of them had weak qi and blood. Like him, they had very little qi and blood in the warrior realm.

Most of them are at the level of Qi and blood of Wu Tong, and a few are at the level of Qi and blood of Wu Sheng.

Among those who come to participate in the entrance examination of Taiyi Dao, there are still very few who practice both martial arts and Taoism.

When Shi Yi first saw Ning Xueyan, the golden detective from the Divine Detective Department, who practiced both martial arts and Taoism and had both reached extremely high levels, he thought there were many people like him. Now it seems that he was overthinking!
Whether it is cultivation resources or cultivation energy, it consumes more resources, and ordinary people will only choose one.

There is a time limit for joining Taiyi Dao Sect. Naturally, you must first meet the requirements of Taiyi Dao Sect within the time limit before you can talk about anything else.

"Number one hundred and forty-five, Shi Yi, enter Courtyard No. 3 to participate in the assessment."

It was finally Shi Yi's turn to take the test.

"Master, I'm going in!"

Shi Yi looked at Song Jing, took a deep breath, and said.

"Just calm down and play your best."

Song Jing nodded and said.

Seeing this, Song Jing, who was standing by, also watched Shi Yi go in for the test.

This is the time he can accompany Shi Yi. Next, he can only wait for the results of Shi Yi's assessment.
