Xiao Ding took Su Lanlan to the recruitment office of the Seven Star Sect Wuji Sect to apply for the recruitment. After waiting in line for about an hour, it was finally their turn.
Through a conversation with Liang Nanguang, a thin scholar who was in front of Xiao Ding, Xiao Ding learned that if he wanted to be recruited into the Wuji Sect as a disciple, he needed to test his Tiangen attributes in advance.
Therefore, Xiao Ding had an expectation in his heart. He wanted to know which type of Tiangen he belonged to.
It didn't take long for the team to reach Liang Nanguang. He pressed his hand on the root detector, and a monochromatic golden light and a yellow light immediately flashed on the surface of the stone ball.
When the three old men behind the table began to see the golden light, they all nodded to Liang Nanguang. Then they saw the yellow light flash again, and they all shook their heads. Among them, the old layman stretched out his hand to stroke his beard and murmured: "It's a pity to have two heavenly roots of metal and earth elements! What's your name? Where are you from?"
Liang Nanguang bowed and saluted, and said politely: "I have met three seniors! My surname is Liang and my first name is Nanguang. I come from the Liang family in Liangchuan Town. Although I have practiced for more than ten years, my achievements have been limited. I am still practicing at the moment." Within the Qi period. Therefore, this junior has come to sign up, hoping to join the Wuji Sect in order to gain further development prospects. I also hope that the three seniors can help this junior!"
The old layman nodded after hearing this and said: "Your Liang family was once a famous family for cultivating immortals, but in the past one or two hundred years, the talent has somewhat withered. Well, well, seeing as how sincere you are, For the sake of it, I’ll give you a chance to join our sect.”
After saying that, a jade tablet suddenly appeared in the old man's hand. He handed the jade tablet to Liang Nanguang and said, "Take this jade tablet and report to our sect's location in Wuji Mountain within seven days. If you go there, you will naturally Someone is waiting for you."
Liang Nanguang took the jade token, hurriedly saluted again, and said, "Thank you, senior. I will get up and go now." After saying that, he saluted the other two silent old men dressed in sophisticated clothes, then turned around and left.
This time it was Xiao Ding and Su Lanlan's turn.
Xiao Ding stepped forward, first gave the three old men a fist, and then followed Liang Nanguang's example and put his hand on the root tester on the table.
Originally, Xiao Ding was still very uneasy and didn't know what kind of Tiangen he was. But when he put his hand on the root finder, the stone ball showed no reaction at all.
Did the stone ball malfunction? Xiao Ding rubbed it repeatedly with his hands in confusion. But the stone ball didn't react at all.
When I was wondering, I heard the old man behind the desk say: "You don't need to try. You don't have heavenly roots and are not suitable for cultivation."
When Xiao Ding heard this, he felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his heart. He didn't have heavenly roots, so wouldn't that mean he didn't have the talent to cultivate immortality? Just when he was feeling disappointed, he heard the old man murmuring to himself again: "Huh? You have actually reached the third level of Qi training. With your qualifications and age, it is impossible to reach the third level of Qi training so quickly?"
Xiao Ding thought about it carefully and realized that although his qualifications were limited, he had taken a few Red Flame Pills. It must have been because of the Red Flame Pill that he quickly entered the third level of Qi training.
So he held up his hands and imitated Liang Nanguang's tone of voice and explained: "This junior once had an adventure, so he was able to achieve a breakthrough in his technique."
The old man suddenly said: "No wonder, let me just say, with your qualifications, if you practice normally, it is difficult to break through even the second level of Qi training, let alone the third level. Well, your qualifications are really unsatisfactory, we Wuji Sect cannot recruit you, so you should look elsewhere."
When Xiao Ding heard that the old man rejected him, he was already prepared in his heart, because he had seen many people without Tiangen being turned away before.
So he stepped aside and asked Su Lanlan behind him to come over and test it.
What Xiao Ding didn't expect was that as soon as Su Lanlan put her hand on the root detector, the stone ball immediately emitted a purple light, purple and bright.
The three old men behind the table immediately widened their eyes and looked at Su Lanlan up and down in disbelief.
Due to her late cultivation, Su Lanlan has only just introduced Qi into her body and is at the first level of Qi training. Compared with the other people who came to Tiankun Planet with Xiao Ding, she is the one with the lowest cultivation level. Therefore, , Xiao Ding never thought that Su Lanlan would have such incredible cultivation qualifications.
Seeing the expressions of the three old men behind the table, Xiao Ding had already guessed that Su Lanlan's Tiangen must be unusual.
Sure enough, I heard the old man whisper: "Single-line Thunder Heaven Root, pure Heaven Root among different Heaven Roots, very good, very good!"
After speaking, he raised his eyes and looked at Su Lanlan's face, smiled kindly and asked: "Girl, what is your name? Where are you from?"
Su Lanlan was a little shy when the three old men looked at her. She timidly replied: "My name is Su Lanlan, we come from..., from..." As she said that, she looked at Xiao Ding.
Xiao Ding quickly said: "She is my sister, we are from another planet."
"Are you from another planet? Which planet are you from?" the old man asked doubtfully.
"Uh..., we are from the earth." Xiao Ding answered truthfully.
"Ah, Earth, that is a planet inhabited by mortals. But, did you know that the earliest human residents on our Tiankun planet came from the Earth millions of years ago." The old man said slowly said.
Xiao Ding didn't believe it in his heart. He said in his heart that the history of human beings on earth is only a few thousand years. If you say that people from earth came to Tiankun planet millions of years ago, that is simply nonsense.
The old man didn't notice Xiao Ding's questioning expression, but continued to say to Su Lanlan kindly: "Your Heavenly Root is a single-line Thunder Heavenly Root, which is very suitable for practicing Thunder-type skills. It just so happens that our Wuji Sect has this expertise." Kung Fu, we are very willing to recruit you to our Wuji Sect as an inner disciple." As he said that, he took out a jade token and was about to hand it to Su Lanlan.
Su Lanlan glanced at Xiao Ding and asked the old man: "What about my brother Xiao Ding, will you join the sect together?"
The old man shook his head and said: "His qualifications are too poor, we can't accept him."
Su Lanlan also shook her head and said, "Since you can't recruit me, Brother Ding, into the sect, then I won't join your sect either."
After saying that, she took Xiao Ding's arm, turned around and left, and said: "Brother Xiao Ding, let's go."
After Xiao Ding was pulled by Su Lanlan for several steps, he heard the old man shouting from behind: "Girl, please stay, let's discuss it again, okay?"
Su Lanlan, as if she didn't hear anything, pulled Xiao Ding and left the wooden shed where Wuji Sect recruits disciples.
The two of them had been waiting in line for almost an hour, and it was already noon. Xiao Ding felt a little hungry in his belly, so he lost the mood to continue queuing for the sect, so he went into a tavern with Su Lanlan, ordered a few side dishes, and had lunch.
Xiao Ding and Ding were sitting in the lobby on the second floor of the restaurant, at a table near the north window. After the two of them had eaten and drank, Xiao Ding inadvertently glanced out the window and suddenly discovered that there was actually a sect recruiting disciples on the back street outside the north window.
What surprised Xiao Ding was that the sect's wooden shed was not only located in a back street with relatively few people, but also the wooden sign hanging in front of their wooden shed actually had ten stars painted on it.
Xiao Ding did not know the specific meaning of the stars painted next to the names of these sects that recruited disciples. When he was queuing up, he chatted with Liang Nanguang, and Liang Nanguang only mentioned that those stars represented the sect's level in the world of immortality.
Therefore, Xiao Ding took it for granted in his heart that the more stars on the wooden sign, the higher the level of the sect. Therefore, when the Seven Star Sect Wuji Sect refused to recruit Xiao Ding, Xiao Ding had no idea of going to Wuji Sect. Therefore, when Su Lanlan pulled him away, the old man in the wooden shed persuaded them to stay and wanted to discuss it with them again. , Xiao Ding did not stop, but left directly with Su Lanlan.
At this time, Xiao Ding saw from the north window that the sect on the back street actually had ten stars, which made Xiao Ding feel very strange. Because, after he walked around the front street several times, he only found that the other sects only had nine stars at most. This one on the back street was the only ten-star sect he had ever seen.
Xiao Ding took a closer look at the sign in front of the Ten Star Sect's wooden shed. It had three characters "Tian Yang Sect" written on it. It seemed that this sect was called "Tian Yang Sect".
Seeing Xiao Ding staring out the window, Su Lanlan didn't know what he was looking at, so she followed Xiao Ding's gaze and looked outside. When she saw the Tianyang Sect's brand, she couldn't help but shout to Xiao Ding: "Brother Xiao Ding, look, that Tianyang Sect actually has ten stars."
Xiao Ding nodded and said: "Since Wuji Sect is unwilling to accept me, let's go to Tianyang Sect and give it a try."
At this time, perhaps it was meal time, but there were not many people queuing in front of the Tianyang Sect's wooden shed, only about ten people in total.
Xiao Ding and Su Lanlan used spirit stones to settle the bill at the restaurant. When they turned to the back street, they saw the Tianyang Sect's recruitment office. There were very few people queuing up, so they thought it was because they were in a back street. This back street The flow of people in the street is not as large as that of Qian Street. It is lunch time, so naturally there will not be many people.
In the wooden shed of Tianyang Sect, there was only a Taoist priest in his forties sitting. On the table in front of him, there was also a root measuring device. Those who come to register must first pass the Tiangen test before proceeding to the next step.
There were about ten people in line in front of Xiao Ding. After standing there and looking at it for a while, Xiao Ding realized that the people in front of him, regardless of whether they had Tian Gen or not, and regardless of whether they had more Tian Gen or less, basically, Everyone can receive the jade token issued by the old Taoist for reporting. There was only one blind disabled person, but the old Taoist did not admit him.
Therefore, Xiao Ding thought to himself that the Ten Stars sect was still generous and courageous, and indeed had the demeanor of a great sect! Look at them, they are all inclusive, no matter what their qualifications are, they can give applicants a chance to get started, and then look at the Wuji Sect, pick and choose, no wonder it only has seven stars.
