How can simply creating a sect make you invincible?

Empress Lingxu looked at Ye Zi below the square with satisfaction, while sweeping her warning gaze over the people beside her, her eyes seeming to say: This is the disciple I have chosen, so you lot better not have any wicked ideas.

Looking down at Kun Kun and the mage, Lu Chen felt increasingly satisfied; their work efficiency was indeed getting better and better.

"Gu Chen, Ling Xu... For the next few days, you few will be in charge of guarding this place. I won't be coming."

The eight emperors rose and bowed, saying, "Sect Master, rest assured, we will keep a close eye on the disciple-acceptance ceremony and guarantee that no problems will arise."

"Alright, then thank you all for your hard work." After saying that, Lu Chen took Xiao Ningyun's hand and left.

Looking at the sect leader leading the young Ning Yun, the eight emperors were filled with envy. Double pupils—this legendary physique—they also longed to have a disciple like her, hoping to encounter one or two such promising talents in their upcoming disciple recruitment.

"Sigh! This talent test is too strict. With my talent, I could easily become an inner disciple or core disciple elsewhere, but now the test only went through 5 rings, so I can only be an outer disciple."

"Brother Han, you're still not satisfied with five? Don't you even look at our sect's environment? It's incomparable to those ordinary holy lands and sects!"

"You're right. I just had too high expectations of myself. I thought I could get into the inner sect with my talent. The gap between my expectations and reality is too big. I'm just feeling a bit sentimental."

"It's alright. I just heard those two outer sect senior brothers say that we can enter the inner sect through the sect competition or join one of the eight peaks. What we need to do next is to cultivate diligently."

"You're right, it's already a great fortune that we were able to enter the sect."

Time flies...

At this moment, in front of the Wanfa Sect's mountain gate, with the final round of the ladder-climbing assessment completed, Wang Lin waved his hand and put away the entire Illusionary Spirit Ladder.

"Today's disciple recruitment ends here. Don't worry, the entire recruitment period will last for 7 days. Those who haven't had a chance to be tested yet can continue tomorrow. Those who have failed the test, please leave the site." After saying this, Wang Lin walked straight into the sect.

As batches of new disciples were brought to the square for testing, more than 20,000 people were now standing in the square.

Kun Kun put his hands in his pockets and looked at his junior brothers and sisters in the square with satisfaction.

Suddenly, Kun Kun announced loudly, "You are now disciples of the Wanfa Sect. If you need to go out to inform your relatives or friends about your situation, you have one day. However, those who go out must report to the sect and return after one day. Those who fail to return on time will be considered to have automatically given up their status as disciples of the Wanfa Sect."

"Disciples who do not have relatives or friends outside and do not need to go out will be arranged to go to the corresponding area later."

After Kun Kun finished speaking, he left with Liu Ruyan, Wang Teng, and the others.

"Brother Sima, let's go out and tell the family so they won't worry."

"That's exactly what I was planning to do. Let's go and report it to them first."

Ye Zi and Chen Ping'an both came alone, and both of them followed a senior brother to the inner sect area.

"Junior Brother Chen, Junior Sister Ye, you two have such great talent that all the peak masters will likely take notice of you."

"Senior brother, when will the Eight Great Peaks open for disciples?" Ye Zi asked.

"It should be after this round of apprenticeship. As far as I know, some of the senior brothers and sisters in the inner sect already have peaks they want to go to, but some others feel that there are too many people on the major peaks and want to stay in the inner sect to study under some quasi-emperor elders."

"I see, thank you for clearing up my confusion, senior brother."

Ye Zi, burdened with a blood feud, will definitely need to become a disciple of a great emperor in order to seek revenge. In the future, she will not only have a powerful backer but also receive guidance from the great emperor.

At this moment, the foot of Wanfa Sect Mountain was bustling with activity, as a group of newly qualified disciples were discussing sect affairs with their relatives and friends.

"Nan'er, are you telling the truth? A corner of the Myriad Laws Sect is ten times better than the Ancestor's secluded cultivation place?"

"Second Uncle, it's true. I saw all of this with my own eyes, and I even became an inner disciple," Sima Nan said with a proud expression.

"With your talent, how come you're only an inner disciple? Weren't you accepted as a disciple by the Great Emperor?"

"Second Uncle, do you know what you're saying? It's not that easy. Today, out of more than 20,000 people taking the talent test, only a little over 600 are inner disciples, and I am one of them."

"I was a bit naive. The Imperial Clan's assessment is indeed too strict. Today, nearly 200 million people climbed the ladder, but only about 20,000 people were able to reach the top. A total of 200 million people were eliminated. The elimination rate is too high."

"Second Uncle, this time the Imperial Sect is recruiting disciples, too many people want to take advantage of the chaos to enter the Imperial Sect. Many people have ulterior motives, so the elimination rate is naturally high."

"Nan'er, you're right. The Imperial Sect has disrupted the balance of the Xuanhuang Continent and is now too dazzling. Many people on the Xuanhuang Continent don't want to see such a force exist, so it's normal for them to plant people in there."

"Let's not worry about that anymore, Second Uncle. You all go back first. I'm going back to the clan too."

"Father, I am now an outer disciple of the Myriad Laws Sect. It's a pity that I only got six points in the talent test. I was just a little short of entering the inner sect."

"It's alright, as long as you can get into the Imperial Sect, remember to cultivate diligently in the future."

"Father, I understand. You may go back now. I will cultivate diligently within the Imperial Sect."

"Alright, then remember to come back and visit your father and mother when you have time."

Within the City of Ten Thousand Laws...

The cultivators and merchants in the city all wore expressions of barely concealed excitement, gathering in small groups to discuss the Wanfa Sect's recruitment of disciples with great enthusiasm.

In a private booth by the window on the second floor of the teahouse, several elders from prominent families, sipping spirit tea, spoke solemnly: "The Wanfa Sect's standards for accepting disciples this time are extremely high. I've heard that even the sect's true disciples will personally oversee the assessment!"

One of them lowered his voice, his tone full of awe: "My son's spiritual root is quite good. If he can be selected this time, even if he's just an outer disciple, it'll be a meteoric rise, and the whole family will benefit!"

The rogue cultivator at the next table, his heart pounding with excitement, couldn't help but interject, "I heard they're selecting the most talented seedlings! The Great Emperor himself is taking on disciples!" Today, the Myriad Laws Sect's Illusionary Spirit Ladder trial opened, eliminating a full two hundred million people. That's the first hurdle in selecting geniuses; those who reach the top are all future leaders in cultivation!"

A group of teenagers huddled together on the street, their eyes filled with longing and trepidation: "I must pass the assessment, join the Myriad Laws Sect, and become a legendary cultivator!" "I've heard that the Myriad Laws Sect has all kinds of cultivation methods, spiritual herbs, magical artifacts, and everything else imaginable. As long as you can enter the sect, your cultivation path will be smooth sailing!"

"Have you heard? This time, the Myriad Laws Sect is only looking at character, not talent. If you don't have talent, the Emperor Sect said that even if you're a pig, they can still train you into a saint."

"Of course I've heard about it, and it's very strict. There are very few spots for inner disciples, and it's said there's even a chance to be directly accepted as a personal disciple by the sect elders!" "I also heard that several core disciples of the Myriad Laws Sect were present to observe the ceremony. If one could become their follower, their future would be limitless!"

Amidst the bustling crowd, the air was thick with fervent anticipation. The chatter, exclamations, and discussions of passersby mingled together. Throughout Wanfa City, from aristocratic families to ordinary citizens, from cultivators to mortal children, everyone spoke and thought about the Wanfa Sect's disciple-acceptance ceremony that day.
