The processes include measuring bone age, phantom array testing character and perseverance, and one's own understanding and views of family and country.
On the day of recruitment, tens of thousands of people came to see him from the northern and southern states combined. After only the first round of bone age testing, one-fifth of the candidates were eliminated.
These one-fifth are all people who are over twenty years old and want to fish in troubled waters with a sense of luck.
The second round of the phantom formation, which tests character and perseverance, contains too many things. Including kindness, filial piety, perseverance, fear, etc., their various inner psychology, whether they are kind and compassionate, or insidious and ruthless, or indomitable, or unable to recover, etc., are all vividly displayed in the illusion array.
This test alone eliminated 99% of the people, leaving less than a thousand people. This result was within the expectations of Liu Wei and others, and there was no curiosity at all.
The next third item is for Liu Wei, Yan Huaian, and Wang Kong to talk to the remaining people face to face about the feelings of family and country.
After this round, beyond expectations, more than 300 people were eliminated. What surprised Liu Wei was that this girl Li Yun actually came to participate in the selection, and she was considered the best one among them.
After that, Gu Yu also had to come out and take a test again, and the results were also quite outstanding. In the end, all the more than 500 people who stayed were officially accepted as disciples by the Cuizhu Sect.
Among the five academies, there are more than 300 people who choose to enter the Kendo Academy, more than a hundred people in the Alchemy Academy, and dozens of people in each of the other three academies.
There are only about a dozen people in the Weapon Refining Institute, and most of them are old disciples of the Weapon Refining Sect. In fact, the weapon refining process is quite boring and tiring.
The popularity of the Sword Academy was due to the influence of the two Sword Emperors Liu Wei and Wang Kong. Many people think about being able to wield a sword to the ends of the earth in the future, and ride a sword freely in the world, and be as cool as they want.
Some people chose two or three at the same time and wanted to study together, and some even directly signed up for all five colleges, hoping to be like Liu Wei.
Finally, Liu Wei came forward and made a stipulation that each student could choose at most two colleges to study, and he must choose according to his own level.
The reason why Liu Wei stipulates this is because no matter which path he learns later, the level of his own realm will have a great impact.
In particular, the storage capacity and purity of true energy have the greatest impact. As a result, everyone has to cultivate their own realm, and Yan Huaian's courtyard is a little busy.
In addition to Dean Yan Huaian, there are four mentors, all of whom are emperor-level casual cultivators from Nanzhou. The Kendo Academy currently only has one dean and instructor, Wang Kong, because in the northern and southern states, there is no sword cultivator whose swordsmanship is above the king's level.
Wang Kong is very busy every day, even busier than Yan Huaian. Liu Wei, the sect leader, can't just be a hands-off shopkeeper, he must help Wang Kong.
And Yan Huaian will also take time to come to the Sword Academy to help. After all, he is also a Sword Emperor, but he has never understood the meaning of the sword.
At the Kendo Academy, Liu Wei established a rule that all newly admitted students must make themselves a sword out of bamboo to practice the most basic sword moves of the thirteen postures every day.
Moreover, the bamboo sword must be used before each posture has been practiced ten thousand times. Liu Wei took out the green bamboo sword from the Sword Skills Hall in the Divine Prison Tower and hung it in the yard of the Kendo Academy.
He once said that he wanted to make this bamboo sword that originally accompanied him famous all over the world. Now, here is just the beginning.
The green bamboo sword has been blessed by Liu Wei with phoenix blood and some materials, and has already reached the level of high-grade heavenly sword.
But if it has been stored in the Sword Skill Hall, coexisting with those immortal swords, and being influenced by them, sooner or later, a sword spirit will be born.
Liu Wei hung the green bamboo sword in the kendo academy. In addition to letting the world see the sword, more importantly, it contained Liu Wei's sword energy and sword intention for students to observe and experience.
Li Yun naturally became the senior sister of the Sword Academy, and even the senior sister of the entire Cuizhu Sect. Gu Yu followed closely and became the second senior brother.
Li Yun reached the King's Realm at the age of twelve, which has already set a new record for Yan Ruyu, an ethereal body, who reached the King's Realm at the age of fifteen.
In fact, the real record breaker is none other than Liu Wei. At the age of fifteen, he became an emperor in the Five Paths, an existence that was absolutely unprecedented and unparalleled.
In the following time, everything was on track. Everyone in the entire Cuizhu Sect is working hard to practice.
A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is before them, and it's up to them whether they can seize it or not.
Among these students, casual cultivators account for the majority. The reason why there are more casual cultivators is not that they don't recruit family members, but that most of the family members were eliminated during the phantom array test of character.
The heads of the four major families in Nanzhou sent all their children of the same age to participate in the selection. In the end, none of them stayed. They were so angry that they blew their beards and glared. They pointed at the noses of these juniors, swallowed the fragrance, and spit. Splashing around, like a scolding woman in an alley, without any trace of the master's grace.
On the contrary, some children and grandchildren of some third-rate families and even poor families in the northern and southern states have survived, which made the patriarchs of these families and the fathers of their children and grandchildren burst into tears with excitement.
No, it's not even a month yet, and those small families and clans that no one cares about before are starting to become lively.
Whether they are relatives, friends, people who are beyond reach, or wealthy people who used to have their nostrils turned upward and did not even look at them when greeting them, now they come to visit them with heavy gifts for several days.
Moreover, his cordiality and enthusiasm really made people think they were sworn friends. You are poor in the busy city and have no one to care about you, but you are rich in the mountains and have distant relatives. This is probably the scene.
Of course, some of the people who came here really expressed their congratulations, and at the same time hoped that the two families could have some friendship and frequent contact in the future.
Some people have various expressions of disgust, jealousy, etc. on their faces, and these people are mainly relatives and friends.
They think you are poor and are afraid that you are rich. This may be the kind of person you are talking about. And some people hope that they can live well, but you can't live better than me!
Human nature, most of the time, is like that. In order to allow these students to grow up as quickly as possible and be able to play a role after he left, Liu Wei finally took everyone into the Divine Prison Tower.
Except for the hired instructors and He Youwei who could see the extraordinary inside, most of the students were not high in cultivation and could not see the extraordinary things in the tower.
Liu Wei plans to let these people go in for half a year, which is equivalent to more than a hundred years. Many people will be able to reach the realm of king or emperor even if they are not good enough.
After everything was on track, several people were relatively less busy. They taught everything that needed to be taught, and the rest was left to the students to practice on their own.
In this spare time, several emperor-level instructors are starting to practice the second path. Yan Huaian still practiced sword skills when he had time, observing the sword intentions left by Wang Kong and Liu Wei, hoping that he could comprehend the sword intentions.
Wang Kong is still pondering the law of space, hoping to understand it soon so that he can completely control the third sword of the Nine Sword Techniques.
As for Liu Wei, apart from accompanying the two girls, he spent the rest of his time practicing the third sword of the Open Heaven Sword Technique in the Divine Prison Tower.
At this time, a conspiracy is quietly brewing in Nanzhou. In a desolate mountain at the southernmost tip of Nanzhou, it is surrounded by mountains.
Except for the towering stone mountains, not a single blade of grass or tree grows here. It can be said to be a place where birds don't poop.
This place, in the territory of Nanzhou, was named
"Southern Stone Mountain". There are about 10,000 people living inside the mountain of Nanshi Mountain. These ten thousand people are all descendants of some princes and nobles who escaped when the previous dynasty of Nanzhou was destroyed. They are hiding here to recuperate and look forward to one day in the future, they can regain their country again.
The previous ruler of Nanzhou was the Yan Dynasty, which was replaced by the current Xiao Dynasty more than 100,000 years ago.
That is, the generation of Xiao Fengtian's great-grandfather rebelled, overthrew the Yan Dynasty, and established the Xiao Dynasty.
Back then, the Xiao family had its own sect in Nanzhou. Some policies of the Dayan Dynasty, etc., led to conflicts of interest between the Xiao clan and the Dayan Dynasty, which then intensified and became out of control.
The Xiao clan finally gathered strength and plotted for hundreds of years to catch an internal struggle for power within the Yan Dynasty. When war broke out and their strength was greatly weakened, they rose up in rebellion and captured the capital of the Yan Dynasty, which is now the Imperial City. .
That year, the Dayan Dynasty got the news an hour before the Xiao clan launched an attack. Therefore, the emperor took some of his children and loyal ministers and fled directly, abandoning the capital of the Yan Dynasty early in order to preserve his bloodline and survive to this day, gradually recovering his vitality.
The Xiao clan conquered the capital city without much effort and immediately established a firm foothold in the country. The direct blood relatives of the Yan Dynasty and some dignitaries were all slaughtered overnight.
After the Xiao family ruled Nanzhou, they failed to capture the emperor and some powerful officials at that time, so they sent a considerable force to search and suppress the remnants throughout Nanzhou.
In the following years, the emperor of the Yan Dynasty led his people to hide in Tibet and escaped several sieges.
But in the process of escaping, there were still heavy casualties, and most of the people were killed. Especially those under the emperor realm are almost dead.
Even his own concubines and children only saved one son in the end. After several years of life on the run, only a few dozen people remained. In the last siege, two loyal Emperors blew themselves up in exchange for the escape of the remaining people.
After escaping, the group of people quietly fled from the northernmost tip of Nanzhou to Nanshi Mountain at the southernmost tip, completely escaping the pursuit.
After arriving at Nanshi Mountain, the group worked together and spent several days to directly open a door from one side of the huge stone mountain, dig tens of thousands of feet deep, and dig several stone chambers inside. Settled here.
