"As I said before, no matter whether it is the upper or lower fourth academy, there is actually no difference between their branches. Maybe you have seen the inner disciples in Shushan and you may think that they are divided according to factions, or Like Laoshan, they distinguish by specialization, but that is usually a distinction between the inner sect, and of course it is impossible for the outer sect to distinguish it like that. We have to go a little further here, starting with the recruitment of the outermost sect disciples. Regarding the recruitment of outer disciples, I don’t know if some of you have noticed that there are quite a lot of strangers in Yujian City recently, at least most of them are faces I don’t recognize, ranging from mortals to monks.”
Hearing his question, Ye Qingcheng and others looked around and shook their heads in unison. They really didn't see it. After all, they had never been to Yujian City themselves, so naturally they couldn't recognize anyone like Qian Wanliang. who is it. But Huan Chenyu and Bai Quan still saw some clues. Although they were a little confused at first, they thought it was because of the Sword City itself and Shushan, so they didn't care. Now they heard Qian Wanliang ask about it. , they just realized something was wrong.
That is, the number of pedestrians walking on the streets in this city seems to be much more than that of other cultivator cities, and among them are not only mortals, but also many monks and even a small number of immortal-level beings. Such scenes cannot be seen in other cultivator cities. Take Tiansha City, which Huanchenyu has just visited, as an example. Tiansha City is a medium-sized city. Although it is in Mobei, the size of the city is not small, but the pedestrians on the street are also very few, and they cannot be compared with each other at all. This is comparable to Sword City.
It seems that there is some reason for these monks and mortals to gather in this sword-controlling city.
"It seems that my estimate is correct. You really don't know about this matter. You are really lucky to be able to come to Yujian City at such a time and without knowing it." Qian Wanliang said. While looking at everyone carefully again, he really didn't expect that these people actually came to Sword City by accident. ,
"Oh? It sounds like we have caught up with something good. I would like to ask Brother Qian to give me some advice. What exactly are you talking about?" Ye Qingcheng asked politely.
His ability to infer was very strong. He was naturally aware of what Huan Chenyu and Bai Quan discovered, but he himself had not been to any cultivator's city. It's just that in his opinion, even the outer disciples of Shushan should not appear so frequently. From the time he met Qian Wanliang at the city gate when he entered the city to now, he has seen quite a few Shushan disciples. He is a disciple of the outer sect. Even if there are more disciples of the outer sect, they should not appear so frequently. And as Qian Wanliang said, there are indeed a lot of people in this city. I am afraid, as Qian Wanliang said, That way, they were attracted by something.
"This matter is well known to everyone, and I won't hide it from you. Just like the outer sect of Shushan holds a competition every two years, in early June every two years, their outer sect will hold an 'Enter Immortal Conference' to recruit disciples. ', as long as those who are examined and their family status is qualified, after selection, they are eligible to join the outer sect of Shushan and become one of its disciples. If it is detected that they have spiritual roots that can be cultivated, they will be selected. Those who do not have spiritual roots in the upper four courtyards will naturally be admitted to the lower fourth courtyards. However, not everyone can enter the lower fourth courtyards. Even if they do not have spiritual roots, they must have excellent qualifications and extraordinary skills. Those who are selected, otherwise, wouldn’t everything be able to enter the Lower Fourth Courtyard of the outer gate?”
"Oh? Is there such a thing? No wonder so many people in Yujian City come here for the 'Enter Immortal Conference'. It seems that every June of two years, there will be a lot of excitement here, but Brother Qian, I am a little curious. Although it is said that most of the outer sect disciples are absorbed into the outer sect from this 'Enter Immortal Conference', but if you miss this conference, don't you have to wait for another two years? No matter it is For a normal monk or a mortal, two years is not a short period of time, right? I'm afraid many people simply can't afford to wait for these two years."
"Haha, you are wrong. Since there are formal recruitment channels, there are naturally informal ones. In fact, as long as you have letters of recommendation from those cultivation families, or your recommender has sufficient status, then you You can be directly admitted to the Upper Fourth Hospital, and even various examinations during the selection are waived. However, only the Upper Fourth Academy has this special way. After all, those who can be recommended will be admitted in a few years. The disciples of the inner sect and the lower four courtyards, no matter how powerful they are in the mortal world, are still just mortals and cannot rise to the top. Therefore, there are no other ways to recruit them unless they are really geniuses or have done something. Only those who can do shocking things can do it.”
"I see." Ye Qingcheng nodded thoughtfully.
His reaction surprised Bai Quan on the side. Others didn't know it, but he knew that Shushan's head coach Ling Yunzi had already decided Ye Qingcheng to be a disciple of Shushan's Luoyun Peak lineage. His master was Shang Yangzi. These things had changed when they were two It was already agreed upon when people went to Tianzhu Peak, and neither Ling Yunzi nor Ye Qingcheng would refuse. And after that, Ye Qingcheng had already made plans for his time in Shushan, but now that he heard Ye Qingcheng's continuous questions about Qian Wanliang, he couldn't help but wonder. Could it be that Ye Qingcheng planned to join the Upper Fourth Academy of Shushan's outer sect? There are obviously shortcuts, but you have to take those narrow paths?
After sensing his gaze, Huan Chenyu couldn't help but avoid Ye Qingcheng and talk to him through spiritual contact.
"What, Brother Chenyu, is it possible that Shijun really plans to join the Upper Fourth Courtyard of the outer gate of Shushan, and then pass the promotion to enter the inner gate of Shushan?"
"That should be the case, and if you look at his expression, it should not be a decision we can influence."
"But if this happens, won't Shijun have to spend several years in the upper four courtyards? Considering his supreme spiritual qualifications, wouldn't this be a waste of great time?" Bai Quan looked a little anxious. , in his opinion, there is no need for Ye Qingcheng to waste two years here.
"No, that's not necessarily the case. You haven't seen that in this day and age, anyone with some qualifications or bloodline has been well protected and cultivated since childhood. Many people wait until very later before they start to truly come into contact with life and death. Fighting, and having no social experience at all, no matter how great the supernatural power is, it is too easy to be plotted by others. If Shijun first joins the Shangsiyuan and slowly practices while crawling around in blood and fire, it will be too easy. It’s also a good way to practice. Sometimes you don’t have to choose the smoothest road. It’s not without benefits to walk on the bumpy roads.”
