Although the Back Mountain Hall had its own group of personnel who were responsible for maintaining the restrictions and order of the back mountain, strictly speaking, it was still different from an independent department like the Welcome Pavilion. The biggest difference was that the Back Mountain Hall had at least three Elder level experts stationed at all times.
This meant that if someone intended to invade the Back Mountain, not only would they have to face the layers of restrictions, they would also have to be on guard against the siege of more than three Elder level experts. This was no trivial matter.
This concerned the foundation and heritage of the entire Three Pavilions. The Back Mountain could not be lost, so it was reasonable for such a powerful lineup to be on guard.
Under the surveillance of layers of guards, Hu Yunfeng led all the newcomers to the square of the Back Mountain Hall, waiting for the instructions of the Elder stationed there.
As the trial site was in the Back Mountain, the newcomer trial was no longer a matter of the Welcome Pavilion itself, but also required the participation and coordination of the Back Mountain Hall. Compared to Hu Yunfeng, the Welcome Pavilion Master, it was clear that the Elder stationed at the Back Mountain Hall had more authority, so his words naturally carried more weight.
The group of newcomers held their breath and looked in awe at the three open-air chairs in front of them, where the three Elders were sitting.
This time was different from the previous public guidance day. Although Xu Yuanzheng and the others were also Elders, for them, the nature of coming to the Welcome Pavilion was basically equivalent to going down to the grassroots level. Therefore, they deliberately suppressed their auras in front of the newcomers. The newcomers would only feel that they had a high status, but not necessarily that they were that scary.
But the three that the newcomers were facing now were Elder level experts who were in a state of battle at any time. They did not suppress their auras at all.
Under the pressure of the three majestic and mighty auras. Although the newcomers had already advanced to the peak of the late stage of Heaven Stage, they still found it extremely difficult to breathe at this moment. Their knees began to tremble uncontrollably, and the weaker ones even directly knelt down in front of everyone.
In this month of cultivation, those newcomers who did not have the strength of Heaven Stage Great Perfection had all broken through to the realm of Great Perfection because of the cave abode and the Spirit Jade!
This was the difference between the Heaven Stage Island and the secular cultivation world. Spirit Jade and cave abode, these were the best cultivation resources!
These three people were so strong! As an early stage Foundation Establishment expert, Lin Yi was not scared to the point of kneeling on the spot like the other newcomers. But at this moment, he was also facing great pressure.
It had been almost a month since he came to Heaven Stage Island, but this was the first time he had seen such a powerful and undisguised expert. This was a terrifying existence that was far above him!
From the bottom of his heart, Lin Yi finally felt the excitement that he hadn't felt for a long time. What followed was the desire to become stronger!
The strength of an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator was enough to sweep through the secular cultivation world. This made Lin Yi a little complacent. Even after arriving at the Heaven Stage Island, he still felt that everything was under his control due to the relatively gentle environment of the Welcoming Pavilion. There was no sense of crisis.
But now, Lin Yi knew that he was wrong. He was so wrong! On this island, the early stage of foundation building was the most basic step, just like the golden class masters in the secular world. If they couldn't become stronger as soon as possible, they wouldn't be able to control their own fate. He could become an ant that could be crushed by others at any time!
"The rookies these days are getting weaker." The bald elder sitting in the middle of the three open-air chairs glanced at the rookies that were kneeling in fear. Although his voice wasn't loud, every word was like a heavy hammer that struck the depths of everyone's mind, causing them to unconsciously tremble.
After a pause, the bald elder began to announce the rules of the trial.
The rules were very simple. The rookies would be randomly placed in the periphery of the back mountain, and the most important trial task was to find herbs. The special basket in the back mountain hall would give points according to the value of the herbs. The final trial result would be ranked according to the points from high to low, and specific rewards would be given according to the ranking.
This trial rule made Lin Yi think of the Ice Palace trial in the secular world. The two were quite similar, and could even be said to be exactly the same. Of course, although the rules were somewhat similar, the environment and competitors were very different from before, so they still couldn't be underestimated.
However, there was one point in the rules that surprised all the new disciples. This time's training was not a competition between all the new disciples of the Welcoming Pavilion. Instead, it was a competition between the three pavilions' new disciples. Not only that, there were also clear boundaries for each of the three pavilions' activity areas. This made the Clear Cloud Pavilion's new disciples overjoyed.
After all, if they were placed together with the rookies of the Soaring Sky Pavilion and the Mysterious Pavilion, they would definitely end up at the bottom. Then, this trial would be meaningless to them. But now that the rookies of the three pavilions were evaluated separately, it gave them hope. Especially the bald elder's next sentence, it made all the rookies boil with excitement.
"The top three in this trial will receive a Foundation Establishment Pill as a reward, and the first place will also receive ten pieces of spiritual jade as a reward! The fourth to tenth place will each receive three pieces of spiritual jade. As for those after tenth place, don't even think about it. Of course, these rewards can only be redeemed if you reach the most basic requirements. "
The top three could receive a Foundation Establishment Pill!
The entire crowd was in an uproar. Even if these rookies were ignorant, how could they not know about a pill like the Foundation Establishment Pill that countless cultivators yearned for day and night? To any expert at Heaven Stage Full Circle, as long as their aptitude was passable, they would be able to reach Foundation Establishment immediately after consuming a Foundation Establishment Pill!
One had to know that these newcomers were now gathered in the Welcome Pavilion. Their ultimate goal was to successfully build their foundation within a year, and with a single Foundation Building Pill, it was very possible that they could directly achieve that goal in one go. How could they not be excited?
Of course, the Foundation Establishment Pill was not the same as the Foundation Establishment Pill. The Foundation Establishment Pill was only effective when a person at Heaven Stage Full Circle broke through to the early stage of Foundation Establishment. Once they reached Foundation Establishment, it would be useless. Then, they would need the Foundation Establishment Barrier Breaking Pill!
However, the Foundation Establishment Pill did not have this drawback. It could be used as a Foundation Establishment Pill, a Foundation Establishment Barrier Breaking Pill, and even an experience pill!
After hearing such an exaggerated reward, not to mention the grassroots rookies of the Blue Cloud Pavilion, even the old fogies of the Mysterious Pavilion could not hold themselves back. Even the second generation young masters of the Soaring Sky Pavilion had burning gazes!
