Tian Xiaoding joined the Tianyang Sect and was assigned to Kaiyang Peak as an outer disciple.
That night, Xiao Ding stayed in the dormitory where Kaiyang Peak's outer disciples lived.
Fortunately, the room he lives in currently only has him and Li Tianliang, and it seems quiet. Only Li Tianliang, a talkative, has been chattering about everything he knows about Tianyang Sect. .
Xiao Ding was happy to listen to his introduction. After all, he had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the place. Having a familiar person to guide him could also help him avoid detours.
Early the next morning, as soon as Xiao Ding got up and washed up, Su Lanlan came over alone.
Su Lanlan's first words when she saw Xiao Ding were: "Brother Xiao Ding, I finally found you. You know, I searched for you early in the morning and asked many questions before I found you here."
Xiao Ding heard that it was difficult for Su Lanlan to find him, so he smiled softly and said: "Lan Lan, you came to see me so early. Is there anything urgent?"
Su Lanlan shook her head and said, "It's nothing, I just want to see how you are doing now."
Xiao Ding nodded and said, "Everything is fine with me. You see, I am also a disciple of the Tianyang Sect now." As he said that, he pointed to the coat he had just put on this morning that was embroidered with the Tianyang Sect's logo. Disciple's robe.
Su Lanlan followed what Xiao Ding pointed and looked up and down Xiao Ding's clothes, and then said: "Brother Xiao Ding, why are your sect clothes black, while the clothes of the brothers I saw yesterday are Where’s the red one?”
Xiao Ding patted Su Lanlan on the shoulder and said: "Silly girl, those who wear red robes are all inner disciples, and those like me who wear black robes are all outer disciples. Brother Xiao Ding I am an outer disciple now, and I have to work hard. By the way, how are you doing now? Did the old Taoist named Zheng take you to see the leader yesterday?"
Su Lanlan nodded, and then said: "Uncle Zheng took me to see the master Tianshu yesterday. They treated me very well. The master asked me to join the disciples of Master Xianyue at Hangyang Peak and become a core disciple. From now on, I learned the art from Master Heng Yue. They also gave me a storage bag, a robe and a sword, but unfortunately I have not yet developed my spiritual consciousness and cannot use this storage bag."
When Xiao Ding heard this, he immediately heard the difference. What he received yesterday was just ordinary sect clothes, but what Su Lanlan received was a robe. The so-called robes are clothes often worn by immortal cultivators. They are made of special materials and have formations engraved on them, which can block the detection of other people's spiritual consciousness.
Seeing Su Lanlan's slightly disappointed look because she couldn't use the storage bag, Xiao Ding quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, just practice with Master Heng Yue. When you reach the third level of Qi training, you will be able to cultivate your spiritual consciousness. "
Su Lanlan nodded again and responded: "Brother Ding, I will work hard to practice and strive to break through to the foundation building stage as soon as possible. I will not let the leaders and elders in the sect down." Although Su Lanlan was young, she could see that The elders of the Tianyang Sect and the leader Tianshu Zhenren, among others, expressed their ardent expectations for her.
Xiao Ding and Su Lanlan chatted for a while. At this time, Li Tianliang came over after washing up. He shouted to Xiao Ding: "Senior Brother Tian, let's go have breakfast together."
Xiao Ding replied: "Okay, then let's go have breakfast together."
On each of Tianyang Sect's eight peaks, there is a cafeteria. Sect disciples can go to the cafeteria to eat with their jade tokens. However, every time you go to the cafeteria to eat, you need to clear some points. Depending on the food you eat, the points that will be wiped out will be different.
New disciples who join the sect will have some initial bonus points in their jade tokens. After these points are used up, the disciples need to earn points themselves before they can eat normally in the cafeteria.
Xiao Ding led Su Lanlan to follow Li Tianliang to the cafeteria of Kaiyang Peak. The cafeteria had two floors and was already full of people, mostly the inner and outer disciples of Kaiyang Peak.
There is something like a bronze mirror installed at the meal receiving window in the cafeteria. Disciples who go to receive meals will swipe the jade plaque in their hands on it. The bronze mirror will show how many points are left in the jade plaque, and then You choose which set meal to eat, and then the corresponding points will be deducted.
It was the first time for Xiao Ding and Su Lanlan to see such a magical thing, and they were both curious. Li Tianliang, who was on the side, began to help explain again. It turned out that the thing that looked like a bronze mirror had been engraved with formations by the elders of the sect, and could automatically identify the disciples' jade tablets and buttons. Take points.
Xiao Ding also queued up to go to the window to get breakfast. When he swiped his jade token on the bronze mirror, it showed that the jade token contained one hundred points, and a breakfast was divided into three sets: upper, middle and lower. The upper-class package requires 20 points, the medium-class package requires 15 points, and the lower-class package requires 10 points.
According to this calculation, Xiao Ding's 100 points will be wiped out in a few days if he eats three meals a day, even if he eats a low-quality set meal. It seems that I have to earn some points as soon as possible, otherwise I won't even be able to eat in this Tianyang Sect.
When Su Lanlan went to brush the jade token, Xiao Ding was almost blinded by the titanium alloy dog eyes. He saw that Su Lanlan's jade token showed 100,000 points. Is this the difference between core disciples and outer disciples?
Xiao Ding had a dark look on his face, ordered a medium set meal, and then quietly found a seat.
Su Lanlan was also surprised when she saw so many points in her jade card. Then she said to Xiao Ding: "Brother Xiao Ding, you have few points. When you run out, come to me and I can take you." go to eat."
Li Tianliang on the side heard Su Lanlan's words and felt extremely envious. He didn't have many points in his jade card. He also needed to earn points by working every day to ensure three meals a day.
The three of them found an empty seat and sat down to have breakfast. Xiao Ding figured out something again this time. It turns out that in Tianyang Sect, the core disciples can only concentrate on their cultivation and don't have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation, but the outer disciples need to work to support themselves. If you are unwilling to work If you pay, you won’t even be able to eat.
In general, the outer disciples not only have to work hard and support themselves, but the inner disciples and the leaders and elders also rely on the outer disciples to support themselves.
Fortunately, most of the Sect Leader and the elders are already at the level of Foundation Establishment or higher. They can already live without food and do not need to eat. They only need to provide them with spiritual stones, elixirs and other resources that are helpful for their cultivation. .
However, aren't these spiritual stones and elixirs even more rare?
Xiao Ding was sighing in his heart about the jungle in this world. Suddenly, he heard a discordant voice above his head: "Oh, isn't that the poor guy Li Tianliang! Why do you have money for a medium set meal today?"
Xiao Ding Xun Sheng looked up and saw four or five young people in red robes sitting at a table next to the railing on the second floor. Judging from the color of their clothes, he knew that they were all from the inner sect. disciple. There were four or five of them, all good-looking and well-groomed, but their faces were full of defiance. They all looked at Xiao Ding's table with disdain.
The leader, a handsome young man, looked at Li Tianliang and said scornfully: "A poor man is a poor man. I'm afraid he will never be able to eat on the second floor!"
Xiao Ding looked at Li Tianliang, who was sitting across from him, and found that this talkative man was silent at this time, just silently nibbling the steamed bun in his hand. So, he asked softly: "Who are they? Have you ever offended them?"
Li Tianliang shook his head and said: "Don't pay attention to them. They all relied on family connections to enter the sect and became inner disciples. The leader, his name is Qin Taibao, is a disciple of the head of Shouyang Peak, and he often talks with Several of our disciples under Master Yuheng of Kaiyang Peak are hanging out together."
Xiao Ding nodded and then asked: "Is the food on the second floor expensive?"
Li Tianliang also nodded and said: "Yes, you can order the meals you want individually on the second floor, not the set meal on the first floor. Ordinary outer disciples cannot afford it."
The four or five inner disciples upstairs saw Xiao Ding and Li Tianliang whispering and did not pay attention to their words. The leader began to speak provocatively again and said: "I said that poor guy named Li, why are you so weak? Well, don't you usually talk a lot? Why don't you even dare to fart now!" After finishing speaking, the four or five people all laughed unscrupulously.
When Xiao Ding saw his roommate being humiliated, he was about to get up and argue with the people upstairs, but was stopped by Li Tianliang: "Brother Tian, we are here to eat, not to cause trouble. Just ignore them."
Seeing Li Tianliang's calm expression, Xiao Ding thought that if he made things worse, Li Tianliang might be the one who suffered in the end, so he also sat down.
At this moment, all the eyes of the people eating in the canteen suddenly focused on a person who had just walked into the canteen.
This is a beautiful young beauty. She has a graceful figure, a delicate figure, a light lotus step, and elegant clothes. She has an otherworldly and refined temperament about her, just like a fairy from the Moon Palace descending to earth.
Most of the people eating in the cafeteria are Kaiyang Peak's outer disciples. These people are usually the lowest disciples and work hard every day. How have they ever seen such a beautiful beauty? Therefore, as soon as this beautiful woman entered the door, she attracted everyone's attention.
The previously noisy cafeteria suddenly became quiet upstairs and downstairs, as if anyone making the slightest sound would be the greatest blasphemy against this beauty.
Xiao Ding also followed everyone's gaze and looked at the beautiful woman. However, for Xiao Ding, who had seen many beautiful women, he had already become immune. In his opinion, the woman was just prettier. Nothing special either.
The beautiful woman went to the window to get a premium set meal, then turned around and started looking for a seat.
However, it was meal time and the canteen was already full of people, almost all seats were occupied.
Seeing the beautiful woman looking for a seat, many disciples stood up and offered their seats. But the beautiful woman ignored it and walked straight towards Xiao Ding's table.
Xiao Ding thought to himself, why are you still coming towards us?
