Entering the Lixin Hall, the flow of people inside was much less. Three thousand people entered. The other nine elders had left, leaving only Elder Kong.
Lixin Hall has received the news a long time ago and has mobilized manpower to wait for the arrival of new disciples.
On both sides of the hall, stood a row of deacons, who would lead the new disciples to their residence.
As soon as everyone entered the Lixin Hall, an old man walked out quickly from the depths of the hall and said to Elder Kong: "Old Kong, why did you arrive so late?"
"This year there is one more level in the assessment, which has delayed some time."
Elder Kong quickly greeted the old man, turned around and said to the three thousand disciples behind him: "This is Elder Shi, who is responsible for the establishment of the new temple."
"I've met Elder Shi!"
Three thousand disciples bent down and saluted.
"Everything has been prepared for you. Now each of you can take one."
In the middle area of the main hall, there are three thousand small boxes, which contain the costumes of the outer disciples of Baguio Palace and some books. Through these books, you can learn about the entire Baguio Palace.
Liu Wuxie picked up a box, put away his storage ring, and opened it when he arrived at his residence.
When these disciples were taking the boxes, Elder Kong pulled Elder Shi aside and whispered, "Old Shi, can you assign that kid to Outer Peak No. 5?"
Elder Kong lowered his voice so that only two people could hear.
"I'm afraid it won't work on Peak 5. They don't recruit disciples there, and with his level of cultivation, he won't be tortured to death when he reaches Peak 5."
Elder Shi shook his head.
The seventy-two outer peaks of Baguio Palace are basically managed by the peak masters. Some peaks are overcrowded and there is no need to recruit new disciples for the time being.
If these peaks need to recruit new disciples, they will notify the Lixin Hall as soon as possible.
"If Peak 5 doesn't work, then send it to Peak 7."
Elder Kong frowned. Peak No. 5 was relatively rich in resources. Liu Wuxie would grow much faster when he got there.
The conversation between the two of them could not be heard by ordinary people, but Liu Wuxie could clearly see what they were saying through lip reading.
"Old Kong, what do you think of this kid? He is only in Xiaoxuan Immortal Realm, and the sect does not allow him to become a disciple. As he is now, it is difficult for him to survive in Baguio Palace. Fifty fairy roots, how much? People are eyeing him."
Elder Shi spoke in a serious tone.
The news that Liu Wuxie won the first place in the four levels has reached the Lixin Hall.
At first, Elder Shi was also amazed, but when he saw the fifty fairy roots, he sighed.
"Don't worry about it, just send him to Peak 7."
Elder Kong didn't say anything. As for why he was optimistic about Liu Wuxie, he couldn't explain clearly. It might just be because he felt he owed Liu Wuxie something, that's all.
If he could help Liu Wuxie, he would feel better. He happened to have a personal relationship with the master of Peak No. 7, so he could help take care of him.
"Old Kong, to be honest, someone has already told me to send him to Peak No. 69."
Elder Shi and Elder Kong have known each other for many years and have a very good relationship. Otherwise, they would not tell Elder Kong about this kind of thing.
"Is it Ji Pei!"
Elder Kong looked angry when he heard that Liu Wuxie was to be assigned to Peak No. 69. During the assessment, Ji Pei blocked him time and time again, almost killing Liu Wuxie.
"no!"
Elder Shi shook his head. Ji Pei had indeed approached him, but he rejected him. The person he spoke to this time had a higher status than Ji Pei.
"I understand, thank you Lao Shi."
Elder Kong seemed to have guessed it. He Nu suddenly stopped him and refused to let Liu Wuxie become his disciple.
Is this what the higher-ups of the sect mean?
After speaking, Elder Kong turned around and walked towards the disciples.
"Old Kong, we haven't played chess for a long time. After we arrange these disciples, we will have a good game."
Lao Shi felt a little regretful. Lao Kong rarely asked him to do things. Today, he finally asked him once, but he refused.
"good!"
Elder Kong waved his hand with his back to Elder Shi, and after they were arranged, the two of them had a good time together.
The deacons standing on both sides of the hall had already begun to count names. Those whose names were read stood at their corresponding peaks. Huang Zechang was placed on the sixteenth peak.
"Liu Wuxie, sixty-nine peaks!"
When Liu Wuxie's name was read, the disciples looked at each other.
"How did this kid get assigned to Peak 69?"
Hearing that Liu Wuxie was assigned to the Sixty-Ninth Peak, the disciples around him looked shocked.
Liu Wuxie's talent is extremely high. Except for the fifty fairy roots, he is extremely good in all other aspects. Logically speaking, it is more than enough to be ranked in the top ten peaks.
When he heard that he was assigned to Peak 69, Liu Wuxie showed no expression on his face. He already knew the conversation between Elder Shi and Elder Kong just now.
"Brother Liu, please find Elder Kong quickly and ask him to help you change a mountain peak."
Huang Zechang ran over quickly and asked Liu Wuxie to quickly ask Elder Kong to think of a solution before he left.
"No!"
Liu Wuxie shook his head. Elder Kong had already helped him a lot, and he didn't want to continue to trouble others.
Until the end, the Sixty-nine Peaks never appeared again. In other words, there was only Liu Wuxie on the Sixty-Nine Peaks. Except for the peaks that did not recruit disciples, all the major peaks recruited many disciples, up to several hundred people. At least a dozen people.
"Follow me from Peak 1."
A deacon stood up, and Long Yuanxiong and the three Golden Immortal disciples walked out quickly.
"Wind No. 2, follow me!"
"Feng No. 3, follow me!"
"..."
"Fifty Peaks, follow me!"
"..."
There were fewer and fewer people in the main hall. Before Huang Zechang left, he left a communication talisman for Liu Wuxie to facilitate communication with each other.
"Feng 69, follow me."
Soon it was Liu Wuxie's turn, and there were not many people left in the hall.
The lower the mountain is ranked, the lower its status. Peak Sixty-nine is ranked fourth from the bottom, so one can imagine its status.
Although it is not absolute, there are still some differences between the major peaks, because Peak No. 1 is closest to the inner peak, and both the immortal energy and the law are much stronger than Peak No. 72.
Liu Wuxie followed the deacon and left the Immortal Palace.
"There are peak bridges between all the major peaks. Take out the token on your body."
The deacon was polite and did not embarrass Liu Wuxie. The two of them walked to the edge of the platform of the Immortal Palace, where a bridge-like building appeared. Going further, there was a cliff.
The deacon took out his jade sign, and Liu Wuxie picked up his jade sign and placed it in a groove on the left side of the bridge. There were many words on it, and the deacon chose the Sixty-nine Peaks.
Time!
A curtain of light fell and enveloped the two of them, similar to a teleportation array, but much slower than the teleportation array.
In front of Liu Wuxie, an illusory bridge appeared, leading directly to the Sixty-Nine Peaks.
There are bridges like this on all major mountain peaks, mainly to facilitate their travel.
Unless there are special circumstances, flights are generally not allowed at Baguio Palace.
The two walked towards the bridge. Without them moving forward, the bridge quickly supported them and flew towards the Sixty-Nine Peak.
It only took a dozen breaths to reach Peak 69, which was much faster than flying.
The two of them landed firmly on the edge of the Sixty-nine Peaks, and a desolate air hit their faces.
It stands to reason that Baguio Palace is a top-notch sect, and any peak should be extremely prosperous. Why is Peak Sixty-Nine so desolate?
Following the deacon, he led Liu Wuxie through a field of dilapidated buildings. After many buildings collapsed, they were not rebuilt and were left to be blown by the wind and rain.
"Senior brother, can you tell me the origin of the Sixty-nine Peaks?"
After Liu Wuxie finished speaking, he took out a storage bag and stuffed it into the deacon's hand.
There is no one around, and I am not worried about being seen. It is not like being in the Immortal Palace, where there are many people and mixed eyes.
"Tens of thousands of years ago, there were only 69 peaks outside Baguio Palace, and later it expanded to 72 peaks."
The deacon put away the storage bag, slowed down his pace, and took advantage of the last part of the journey to educate Liu Wuxie about the origins of the Sixty-nine Peaks.
"There are no prisons in Baguio Palace. At that time, all the disciples who violated the rules were sent to the Sixty-nine Peaks for punishment. Because the strong wind here is strong all year round and it is close to the outermost area, the immortal energy is thin. Those disciples were punished to cultivate wasteland here. The Seventy Peaks, the Seventy-first Peaks, and the Seventy-Two Peaks were cultivated in those years.”
The deacon continued, but he did not expect that these sixty-nine peaks were mainly used to imprison those disciples who violated the sect's rules.
The Seventy Peaks, Seventy-one Peaks and Seventy-Two Peaks are far higher than the Sixty-nine Peaks in terms of geographical location and current environment.
Moreover, over the years, Peak Sixty-nine has been gradually abandoned by the sect. As the management model of Baguio Palace has become more and more strict, the number of disciples who make mistakes has also decreased year by year.
In addition, each peak has its own law enforcement hall, so even if there are disciples who make mistakes, there is no need to send them to Peak 69 for punishment.
Gradually, the Sixty-nine Peaks became deserted.
Although the Sixty-nine Peaks are deserted, they have become a paradise for those disciples who do not want to be disciplined.
Here, as long as no one is killed, the peak master will not punish anyone.
Even if you are killed, the most you will be punished is to cultivate wasteland, or you will be punished with expensive fairy stones.
Therefore, in the entire Baguio Palace, the Sixty-nine Peaks have become an alternative.
In recent years, the Baguio Palace has also made great efforts to rectify the Sixty-nine Peaks, but the results have not been great each time.
Good disciples don't want to come and bad disciples don't want to leave, so it becomes what it is now.
In the past, a batch of new disciples would be recruited every year, but within a few days, many were dead, some were crippled, and some were running away. In desperation, Baguio Palace had no choice but to let the Sixty-nine Peaks go their own way.
Although the Sixty-nine Peaks are different, after all, they are all members of the Baguio Palace and deserve the same treatment. It is just that these disciples are difficult to control. It does not mean that these disciples have betrayed the Baguio Palace.
Any sect has disciples who are difficult to control, but Baguio Palace brings together the disciples who are difficult to control, that's all.
Hearing the deacon's narration, Liu Wuxie couldn't help but sigh. Shuiyao's management style was indeed different from ordinary people.
Zimu Peak!
Crane Girl has completed her mission and returned to the lotus pond of Zimu Peak.
"Master, why are you doing this? If you put him on Peak 69, he might not survive more than three days."
Crane Girl asked in confusion.
If he were just an ordinary disciple, Liu Wuxie might be able to adapt. With fifty fairy roots in his possession, he was like a moving treasure, and anyone wanted to get a share of it.
"If it was really him, he would naturally not die. If it wasn't him, he doesn't deserve this name."
Immortal Emperor Shuiyao looked into the distance and muttered to himself, no one knew who he was she was talking about.
