Chapter 9 The People of Calamity
Fairy Autumn Rain looked at it carefully for several moments.
It's safe to say that Master will really like this junior brother.
After all, he's quite good-looking.
Suddenly, a question came to her mind.
If I bring him up the mountain, then it seems I won't be the youngest disciple on the mountain anymore.
At that time, I won't have to do anything myself?
Should we just leave it to our junior brother?
Thinking of this, Fairy Qiuyu's beautiful eyes lit up, and she stopped eating sweet potatoes.
He stuffed it directly into his arms.
"Master Master! I want to accept him as my disciple on behalf of my master!"
After he finished speaking, the elders around him were left speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
The head of the Punishment Hall snorted.
“We old guys haven’t even specifically asked for anyone yet, what’s your name, you little brat?”
"I didn't call out," Qiu Yu Zhenren said, puzzled.
"You..." The hall master was speechless, seemingly knowing her simple-minded nature, and stopped talking, then snorted again.
At this moment, the senior disciple of Dantang, who had also come here to accept disciples on behalf of her master, smiled.
She spoke calmly, “What a coincidence, Junior Sister has also taken a liking to this young man. I wonder if Senior Sister Qiuyu would be willing to give him to my Pill Hall? My Hall Master has his eye on him.”
Has the head of the Dan Hall taken a liking to him?
Does that mean you already had your eye on him before the test even started?
This kid also has a talent for alchemy?
The elders on the platform were somewhat surprised.
The sect leader remained silent, his gaze sweeping over Xu Nian, seemingly quite appreciative of the young man.
He doesn't want to release them.
It would be a pity to give it to either my junior sister or to the Pill Hall.
What? It wouldn't be a waste to give it to anyone?
That's for myself, of course!
Become a direct disciple!
I don't have a direct disciple yet!
Is this acceptable?! Is this acceptable to say out loud?!
It's not that I don't want to take on personal disciples, but if I do, I'll be training them as successors, which is the entrustment of the entire sect.
To truly understand something, one needs to be exceptionally talented.
Knowing their background thoroughly is crucial to preventing them from being spies from demons or cults.
Having enough talent is not enough; one must be able to keep the younger generation in check.
Only by keeping these two a secret can we accept them as our personal disciples and train them with dedication.
"This lad is not bad." The sect leader nodded in satisfaction.
If I remember correctly, this child was rescued from demons by an elder of the sect when he went down the mountain for training.
They were the only two survivors in the entire mountain village.
The other one also appears to be a boy.
This kind of identity is very suitable for training.
Once he enters the inner sect, just use the Sky Gazing Technique to test his background. As long as he's not lying, you can directly accept him as your personal disciple and train him to be a future leader.
At this moment, everyone below was also in shock.
The light spread from the front to the back.
Even the slowest person will know what's happening.
Shangguan Ling stared in astonishment at the scene before her, a bad feeling rising in her heart.
broken!
This kid has amazing talent!
The Dan Hall might not tolerate him!
Grandpa couldn't take him on as a disciple anymore!
If it were an ordinary Grade A disciple, taking him as a disciple would be no problem at all.
But this kid's aptitude seems to be even higher than that of a Class A student.
Even among Class A, it is top-tier.
Such a level of skill would even tempt the head of the Punishment Hall.
Even the sect leader himself would be tempted!
"Oh no, oh no, this brat! How come he's so talented?!"
Shangguan Ling was somewhat depressed.
At the same time, I was also quite happy.
As expected of the person I chose! Their potential is truly remarkable!
"Xu... Nian? Please enter the main hall and wait." The elder in charge of the test finally recovered from his shock, and his voice softened.
Xu Nian nodded.
Then, as if remembering something, he said, "Elder, may I wait here for a while?"
Seeing the strange look in the other person's eyes, Xu Nian added an explanation.
“This junior brother and I are from the same village and are good friends. I want to wait until he finishes his test before entering the main hall.”
The elder smiled and nodded.
If other disciples said that, then of course it wouldn't be acceptable.
Rules are rules.
But this world is often very tolerant of geniuses.
The elder was also willing to do a favor.
Don't be fooled by the fact that I am now an elder and this young man is a disciple.
In another ten years, no... three to five years.
The two people's identities may be worlds apart.
It's worthwhile to do a favor for such a genius.
Besides, it's not a big deal.
We're just waiting for the test results from our fellow townsman and friend.
"can."
Xu Nian gave Wu Qinghuan an encouraging look.
He then walked to the side.
Without Xu Nian's tall figure blocking his view, the slender boy was exposed to the sunlight.
His skin glowed with a holy light.
It exudes an unparalleled sense of beauty.
Her pale red eyes shone like two dazzling rubies in the sunlight.
Her small hands were fair, delicate, and soft.
Gently place it on the ritual implement.
But what happened next was completely different from what Xu Nian had imagined.
The ritual implements remained completely still.
No reaction at all.
The testing elder frowned. "Hmm? Something's wrong?"
He looked at Wu Qinghuan and said, "Wait a moment."
He picked up the ritual implement and clapped it a few times.
Xu Nian, standing to the side, was speechless.
Is this something that can be fixed by simply patting it?
hum!
The magical artifact vibrated and emitted a dazzling light once again.
But it's different from Xu Nian's white light.
It is also different from the purple aura that symbolizes good fortune and prosperity.
It was red light! Red aura!
A dazzling, scorching red light blotted out the sky! A blood-red aura permeated the entire square!
The disciples in the square were all pale-faced and their legs were weak.
It felt like I was seeing the most terrifying thing I'd ever seen in my life.
Even the elders in charge of the test turned pale.
They were clearly affected.
The boy stood quietly in front of the magical artifact, his exquisitely beautiful face expressionless.
This situation seems to have no surprise whatsoever.
Bloodshed reached the heavens!
Piercing straight through the clouds!
"This is an ominous sign! This child is the embodiment of calamity! He must never be taken into the sect!"
On the high platform, an elder glared angrily.
Some elders also had furrowed brows.
The sect leader's reaction wasn't that strong, just a little strange.
Why could a mere novice disciple cause such a terrible omen?
It was as if they were rejected by heaven and earth.
Rejected by all living things.
It's as if... he doesn't belong to this world.
Why is this so?
"A person born to be hated by the world... How strange..."
At this moment, he turned to look at the head of the Heavenly Mystery Hall.
"This young man is someone the Hall Master of Heavenly Secrets admires. What is the Hall Master's opinion?"
The woman in the white robe showed neither joy nor sorrow.
But beneath his calm expression lay a hint of surprise.
"He has already forged his own path."
"But…"
Everyone was somewhat surprised to hear this.
At the same time, I was speechless.
What's surprising is how old this kid is? He's already forged his own path?
Isn't this something only experts at the Dao Integration Realm need to do?
What's frustrating is, can't you just say what you want to say in one go? Why are you keeping me in suspense?
The head of the Heavenly Mystery Hall pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.
"His Dao heart is shattered."
