While others were questioning Tang Zhile, an elder from Taichu Temple on the stage spoke:
"The people whose names are read below will not be able to attend the disciple recruitment meeting."
After the words fell, a list condensed with spiritual power appeared in front of everyone, and the list was densely filled with names. A disciple next to the elder took a step forward, poured spiritual power into his voice, and read loudly:
"Tongliu Xingguan: Zhong Xingsheng, Liu Hao, Xin Zuidong...
Xichuan Hotel: Ke Yinxin, Pu Lan, Jiao Feiying...
Bailiang Hotel: Wei Shaojun, Wu Yu, Tong Xiujie...
Lezheng Hotel…”
After the disciples finished reciting and went back, the elder said: "In three days, the directors of each hotel will send you back together."
It was only then that all the monks in the field came to their senses one after another, and then the pot exploded.
"Why do you want us to leave?!"
"That's right, why!"
"What do you mean by Taichu Guan?"
"You must give us an explanation!"
There are also monks who are on the list but are silent. They don't seem surprised, and most of them have an indifferent attitude.
The elder glanced away, and the pressure of the Nascent Soul stage was overwhelming, causing everyone to be silent instantly.
His eyes fell on one of the people who protested the loudest just now, and he asked: "What's your name?"
The man shrank, lost all arrogance, and said: "My junior name is Jin Kaicheng."
"Jin Kaicheng," the elder scanned the list, "you once used your cultivation to bully and harass a female cultivator in Chengju."
"I……"
"He also deceived others into selling false information about assessment and selection."
"this……"
The monk named Jin Kaicheng seemed to want to refute and defend, but the elder interrupted: "If you have any doubts about this, there is a shadow here, do you need to show it?"
Jin Kaicheng's face changed drastically and he stammered: "No, no need."
The elder stopped looking at him, moved his eyes to another person, and asked again: "What is your name?"
The man had a guilty look on his face and replied bravely: "Junior... Zhai Hanwen."
"Zhai Hanwen, together with others, provoked trouble and set up a trap to hurt people outside the residence of a certain monk in Huang Ju——"
Zhai Hanwen's face gradually turned pale as the elder spoke. Seeing that the elder was still willing to continue speaking, he hurriedly said: "Junior knows that he is wrong. Junior knows that he is wrong!"
The elder stopped continuing. He looked around and said, "Who else needs an explanation?"
This time no one said anything.
Tang Zhile whispered: "The Taichu Guanhui secretly observes the people living here before the start of the disciple recruitment conference and conducts screening. Those with poor conduct will be excluded from participating in the conference."
A bystander said: "Never heard of this trick? How did you know?"
Tang Zhile: "Because not every disciple recruitment conference is like this. After all, observing so many people at the same time and continuing for such a long time is also a huge burden on Taichu Guan. Therefore, this conference will not be held every time. It is Only occasionally. I accidentally heard it from someone a long time ago. Dean Song didn’t tell us specifically before departure, probably because he has confidence in our character..."
"no."
Yin Xueze said suddenly, instantly attracting the attention of everyone in the Zhenwu Academy.
Tang Zhile: "What's the reason for that?"
Yin Xueze glanced at him, and then called: "Jinxu."
Zhao Jinxu said "Hey" and said with pride and a little bit of arrogance: "Let me tell you for brother Xueze. Dean Song has no confidence in you. If you encounter this kind of screening, And because of your bad conduct, you were disqualified from participating in the conference. When you return, he will not reuse you."
Everyone was stunned. Tang Zhile reacted quickly and said, "So Dean Song didn't tell us on purpose?"
Zhao Jinxu nodded: "Yes."
"Wow... You are so scheming, Dean Song."
"Fortunately, we have excellent character and were not screened out."
In the sea of consciousness, Ji Shajian said: "The random screening before this conference is not a secret. Why are there so many people who don't know about it?"
Jijiebi pondered: "Perhaps it's because Taichu Concept has not been implemented for so long that many people have forgotten it."
Ji Yanzhu said: "There are still many people who know this rule, but still do bad things with luck. Oops, it's only been a month, aren't you going to show off?"
Ji Sha Jian: "Hmph, the fewer idiots like this in Taichu Guan, the better."
After everyone on the list left one by one, the elder announced that the first assessment of the disciple recruitment conference would begin in five days.
When returning, Jing Yingrong deliberately separated from the Zhenwuyuan group. She changed direction and went to a secluded and uninhabited place.
After she stood still, she said, "Are you looking for something to do with me, or are you following me?"
A young man slowly appeared in the empty place, and he replied: "I'm following you, and I'm also looking for something to do with you."
After that, he saluted Jing Yingrong with great respect and said, "Senior Jing, do you still remember me?"
Jing Yingrong nodded and said, "Remember, Huo Xiumao."
Huo Xiumao's eyebrows were filled with joy. He smiled and said, "Thanks to your advice back then, I had the opportunity to worship Taichu Temple."
Jing Yingrong glanced at the identity token on his waist and said, "You are a direct disciple."
"Exactly, I was accepted as a closed disciple by Taoist Master Yunmeng not long ago and was promoted to direct disciple."
Huo Xiumao said frankly.
"Master Yunmeng," Jing Yingrong lowered her eyes, as if recalling the past, "Can you interpret Changmeng?"
Huo Xiumao said: "Yes."
"Oh," Jijiebi chuckled slightly in surprise, "That little girl actually became a Dao Lord."
Ji Sha Jian disdainfully said: "What is there to make such a fuss about? This is not a matter of course?"
Ji Jie Bi: "Yes, she was among the juniors that Li Chengkong was optimistic about back then."
Jing Yingrong: "Why are you looking for me?"
Huo Xiumao hesitated for a moment and said, "It's not convenient to talk here. Senior, can you follow me to my cave in Chuxiao Peak?"
Jing Yingrong: "Okay."
…
Above the clouds, there are many peaks, islands and land suspended, guarding Taiyue Mountain like stars over the moon. Those huge mountain continents, even compared with the part of Taiyue Mountain that towers above the clouds, are just a drop in the ocean.
Huo Xiumao's magic weapon and Jing Yingrong appeared outside the gate of Chuxiaofeng Mountain. But there was a flash of light outside the mountain gate, and a giant puppet statue appeared.
The huge puppet's eyes emitted two beams of red light, covering the mirror's reflection, and the joints around its body glowed with white light, indicating that it was already in the activated state.
Ji Sha Sword: "Yi Bingpuppet?"
Jijiebi gave an affirmative answer: "Yes."
Ji Yanzhu: "It has been changed so much, I almost didn't recognize it."
Jijiebi: "The core has not changed."
Ji Yanzhu: "Well, that's right, you participated in the core casting of the Ten Puppet of Heavenly Stems."
Huo Xiumao took out a jade-white token. The token emitted a hazy white light, blocking the red light emitted from the eyes of the second soldier.
