Chapter 520 Choosing disciples
It was morning when the recruitment sect was finally over.
The elders leaving in the middle meant that the ones at the end didn't have a chance to become the disciple of the elders.
But Senior Brother Ying had already considered this and had the disciples record the test. That way, they could review the recording later and see if there were any disciples that caught the attention of the elders.
That way, those that had taken the test after they left wouldn't miss out on this opportunity.
When they had finished the test, almost everyone that came was accepted into the Love Sect, leaving no chances for the guests from the other sects.
There were only a few that were turned away, but that was because there were problems with these people.
They were secretly taken away during the exam so as to not create a commotion, but those that had sharp eyes and ears had noticed this. Of course, they wouldn't say anything about it since they knew that this would offend the Love Sect.
Once this sect recruitment was finished, the disciples recruited were brought to the Love Sect while the guests were shown to their lodgings.
The recruitment test ending was not the end of this yet.
This time, they were opening up the Love Sect and showing themselves to the world, so there were other things that needed to happen as well.
But before that, they would let the guests from the other sect rest while they prepared for these ceremonies.
At the same time, the elders were anxious to choose their disciples.
The ten that had passed the first trial were naturally the ones that they wanted the most, but there were some from the second trial that they also wanted. Though it was technically only the nine right now since Tie Yong had already taken Senior Brother Ying as his master.
Once everything was settled, those ten were brought before the elders in the main hall of the Love Sect.
They had already been informed that this was where they would be choosing their masters, so all nine of them had excited looks on their faces.
Tie Yong just had a calm look as he walked in with them.
He would have come in with Senior Brother Ying, but there was another thing they needed to do first.
After all ten of them arrived and stood in the main hall, Lin Fan came in.
As soon as they saw Lin Fan, they immediately cupped their hands and bowed to him.
But Lin Fan just waved his hand and said with a smile, "There's no need for that. From now on, we will be like a family, so you can just act casually."
All of them couldn't help revealing excited looks when they heard this.
To them, the sect master was someone that was far beyond them even if they were about to become the disciples of the elders. This was the person that was at the very top of their sect, so this was a person that they all respected.
If they could become his disciple as well and one day become the sect master…
That was what they wanted the most.
Or rather the hope that they all had since they had ambitions as young kids.
It was just too bad that Lin Fan had no intentions of playing along with those ambitions in the first place.
He only needed them to fill up the spots in the sect, he didn't want anything to do with them beyond that.
That was unless they were a Heaven's Chosen like Huang Xie, but he knew they weren't since he had used his Appraisal Eyes on them.
After he had said that, Lin Fan then said, "Bring out the rewards."
Two of the elders brought out a few things in their hands and they came up in front of the ten of them.
Lin Fan then said, "For passing the first trial and joining our Love Sect in glory, you shall receive the following rewards. You will receive ten Qi Gathering Realm pills, one thousand sect contribution points, and these special artifacts from the sect."
The elders gave each of the ten of them a set of the rewards.
Once this had been handed out, Lin Fan said, "Tie Yong, come forward."
Tie Yong was surprised to be called out like this, but he did come forward and cupped his hands to Lin Fan.
Lin Fan just waved his hand before saying, "For coming in first, you shall also receive this life saving talisman. It will guard against an attack in the Golden Core Realm once, so use it when necessary."
Tie Yong's eyes lit up when he heard this.
He didn't know exactly how strong the Golden Core Realm was, but if it was a reward for him coming in first, he knew that it wouldn't be weak.
He immediately came forward and received the talisman from Lin Fan before saying, "Thank you sect master."
Lin Fan gave a nod and said, "There's no need to thank me, this is what you deserve. You may now head over to your master."
Tie Yong once again gave a bow before heading over to Senior Brother Ying's side.
With Tie Yong beside him, he once again looked at the others with a smug look on his face, but none of them cared about him. They were all waiting for Lin Fan to say his next words.
Lin Fan turned to the remaining nine and said, "I'm sure that all of you should have some idea of what is coming next, so I won't waste time explaining. You will all have the chance to choose your masters. Elders, I'll leave it to you."
Senior Brother Ying cupped his hands to Lin Fan before stepping forward.
He looked at the first one to be sorted, which was the cloaked young man. Though, he was no longer wearing that cloak that he had worn during the sect recruitment.
Instead, he had revealed himself as a bony young man who looked like he was almost too sickly to stand up properly.
It was no wonder he hid his appearance, but the elders didn't mind.
That was because once the cloak came off, they could feel the aura coming from him more clearly.
He was someone who had a strong yin energy, which was why it had resulted in this appearance.
He was someone who clearly had some kind of special physique, which was why several elders wanted him. All of them were elders that specialized in some kind of yin energy cultivation technique.
This bony young man was named Yang Guang which really went against his appearance. He was anything from the sunlight that he was named after…
As soon as he came forward, there were many elders that started fighting over him.
But in the end, he went with one of the elders from the Hidden Dragon Sect who specialized in the Yin Finger Technique. When the elder had demonstrated it to him, Yang Guang's eyes had lit up and he had immediately chosen him.
It really hurt the other elders who had brought all a bunch of things to try and convince him, but there was nothing that they could do since Yang Guang made up his mind.
The next two were the blue haired young man and the purple haired young man respectively named Bing Nan Mo and Lei Yu Ling.
The two of them were surprisingly called up together and they went under two elders who were also lovers.
Though the two of them acted like they were rivals…everyone could see that there was an unspoken bond between the two of them. It seemed like under masters that were lovers…it would bloom into something else.
Everyone hid a smile as they watched the two of them continue to bicker after standing by their masters.
The little girl was called next.
This little girl was named Gu Yue.
Now that there wasn't the adrenaline pumping through her because of the recruitment test, she was much more calm and relaxed. She even seemed a bit shy with the way that she stood in front of the elders.
In the end, she was taken by Junior Sister Xi.
The two of them seemed to connect on a different level, so it seemed like they were quite the perfect match for each other.
As she walked over, she also snuck peeks at Tie Yong.
It seemed like there was something there as well…
As for the other five, they all chose different elders to follow.
There wasn't anything special about them, but since they had passed the first trial, they should be talented enough to be disciples of the elders.
As for the rest, that was for later.
There were still the ones that had stood out in the second trial for the elders to choose from.
Then beyond that, there were still those in the Foundation Realm to choose their disciples from.
Like this, there was a healthy flow of a younger generation to the Love Sect.
As long as this young generation grew up well, there wouldn't be a problem for the Love Sect.
But what Lin Fan was more concerned about was something else.
He was waiting to see the number on his system's panel increase.
As these new disciples reached the Qi Gathering Realm after receiving their cultivation techniques, the number would increase again and again.
Once that number reached the number that he needed, he would receive another reward from the system.
Lin Fan already couldn't wait for this reward.
