"This time, the sect is recruiting both outer and inner disciples. If an inner disciple has a good performance, and an elder takes a liking to him or her, he or she will be directly accepted as a personal disciple. So, this time, it can be considered a grand entrance examination," Ruo Xiangyi said.
Lu Xuan nodded. This was similar to the Profound Ice Pavilion. He naturally knew about it.
"So many disciples are recruited. No wonder the Hundred Flowers City is so lively." Tian Xin said.
Ruo Xiangyi smiled and continued, "The number of outer disciples is relatively higher. Even if there are any shady dealings, Master can't be bothered. So this time, Lu Xuan, you are in charge of recruiting inner disciples. No matter who it is, no one is allowed to use shady dealings. "
"Don't worry. I will definitely complete your task." Lu Xuan guaranteed. He then asked, "What are the tests for the inner disciple exam?"
"If you want to sign up for the Inner Court Disciple Exam, you need to be at least at the Spirit Refinement Realm. So, compared to the Outer Court Disciple Exam, the exam is much simpler. There are only three exams in total, which are appearance, temperament, and strength." Ruo Xiangyi said, "Actually, there are only two tests. For appearance, you can basically pass. Otherwise, you wouldn't have registered in the first place. As for temperament, of course, you will be tested with an illusion array. That is the most effective. "
Lu Xuan couldn't help but smile, "I feel like I have returned to a few years ago. When I participated in the Wind Sword School's entrance exam, it was the same. But before temperament, I still have to test my strength. At that time, I was only at the fourth rank of the Body Refinement Realm. Now that I think about it, it feels like a lifetime ago."
Tian Xin was shocked. This was the first time she found out about Lu Xuan's real cultivation time. She asked, "Lu Xuan, you were only at the fourth rank of the Body Refinement Realm a few years ago? Doesn't that mean you reached the Origin Realm from the Body Refinement Realm in just a few years? How many years is that? Two years is a few years, nine years is also a few years. "
Lu Xuan thought for a moment and said, "About four years."
Tian Xin was speechless for a long time. She looked at Lu Xuan with a strange expression and said, "Evildoer."
Ruo Xiangyi laughed and said, "Don't compare yourself to him. His cultivation speed is so fast that it almost makes people despair. Moreover, he always causes trouble wherever he goes."
Tian Xin nodded in agreement. "I believe you. I've always thought that Lu Xuan is a troublemaker. I don't know much about the Nine East Alliance, but I know everything about the Nine Dragons Dynasty. When Lu Xuan went to Hundred Herb Hall, Beibo Ruo had her eyes on it. When he went to the Nine Dragons Jade Seal, something happened to the flood dragon's soul. What a coincidence. "
Lu Xuan felt that he was wronged. He just happened to be in time. If he didn't go to Zhongzhou, Beibo Ruo would have attacked Hundred Herb Hall. If he didn't enter the Imperial Jade Seal, the flood dragon spirit would have been released by Xia Jie.
Ruo Xiangyi waved her hand and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. The assessment of the various sects was more or less the same. After all, after so many years, everyone had already summed up the most perfect assessment method. However, this time's temperament assessment is slightly different. Perhaps you'll have to put in some effort, Lu Xuan. "
"What? You're not going to use an illusory formation?" Lu Xuan asked in surprise.
Ruo Xiangyi shook her head. "Of course not. It'll still be an illusory formation. However, the previous assessments used illusory formations prepared by the sect in advance. If the participants have people in the palace, they can learn about it in advance and prepare for it. The results of this kind of temperament assessment may not be accurate. This time, we've decided to change the illusory formation! "
"You guys change yours. What does that have to do with me?" Lu Xuan was baffled.
Ruo Xiangyi revealed a sly smile. "In order to keep this a secret, I've decided to give you the task of creating a new illusory formation. Tian Xin told me that you're already a Seven Star Talisman Master, right? Creating an illusory formation targeted at Soul Refinement cultivators shouldn't be a problem. "
Lu Xuan was dumbfounded. After a long time, he said, "No way, you want me to do this? Do you really think I'm an all-rounder?"
Ruo Xiangyi snorted, "I don't care. I said I'll let you do it."
Being unreasonable had always been a woman's right, especially a beautiful woman's right. Lu Xuan could only acquiesce. If he had to do it, then so be it. He would just treat it as cultivating the Dao of Array Formations. As for what the temperament assessment would be, he still had to think about it. Since Ruo Xiangyi didn't say anything, it was obvious that she was letting him do as he pleased. To put it nicely, she was giving Lu Xuan enough trust.
"After the temperament assessment, it's the strength assessment. The strength assessment is a battle between two candidates with the same registration number. This is also the most shady aspect. Whether one's strength passes or not depends on the examiner's judgment. Even if the candidates think that the examiner is cheating, they absolutely won't dare to say anything. If they offend the examiner, they will definitely suffer. I'll leave this to you, "Ruo Xiangyi cautiously said.
Lu Xuan nodded, "I understand."
With his current eyesight, it was easy for him to judge whether a candidate's strength passed or not.
"Right, among those who register for the Inner Court Disciple Assessment, there will be some Outer Court Disciples. For these Outer Court Disciples, you can relax the requirements. This is also a kind of preferential treatment for our own people. After all, Outer Court Disciples need to help the Sect with a lot of chores," Ruo Xiangyi reminded.
Lu Xuan felt that this was a good idea. It was quite humane. If a cultivator didn't have enough talent, they could start as an Outer Court Disciple.
Seeing that Ruo Xiangyi didn't continue, Tian Xin hurriedly asked, "Miss Ruo, what about me? What about me? What should I do? "
"You?" Ruo Xiangyi said in a puzzled tone, "Didn't I tell you to sit behind Lu Xuan and record the results of those disciples? When the time comes, you can submit it to the Elders and let them choose if there is a disciple they like."
Tian Xin was dumbfounded, "Ah? That's it? "
"Of course, such an easy job. It's much easier than Lu Xuan's." Ruo Xiangyi put on a look as if she had taken advantage of him.
"But, but I don't have any power." Tian Xin spread his hands helplessly.
Lu Xuan patted his shoulder and said, "Xiangyi is worried that you will abuse your power for personal gain. En, I also think that you might be this kind of person. Otherwise, when the time comes, I won't be able to expose you."
Tian Xin looked at Lu Xuan with disdain and thought, 'Am I, Tian Xin, that kind of person? Ahem, actually, there might be a trace of that. ' However, Tian Xin definitely wouldn't say this out loud. He wanted to maintain his perfect image.
"Alright, do you want to take a stroll around the palace? Our Peony Palace has a lot of beautiful scenery." Ruo Xiangyi said generously.
Lu Xuan looked at Ruo Xiangyi with hidden bitterness and said, "Do you think it's easy to make a formation plate? There's only a little more than a day left. I have to hurry. "
Ruo Xiangyi giggled and went around to Lu Xuan's back. She put her hands on his shoulders and said with a tempting tone, "You've worked hard. Oh, do you want a special reward?"
Lu Xuan felt his entire body go numb when he heard what Ruo Xiangyi said. Ruo Xiangyi was someone who cultivated in the art of seduction. He found it rather hard to bear when she used it, especially when he knew that Ruo Xiangyi had feelings for him.
He immediately shook off Ruo Xiangyi and returned to his room without looking back, "No need, I'm going to carve a formation plate first. Don't disturb me if there's nothing important."
"It's fine. If Lu Xuan doesn't want to go, I'll go," Tian Xin said righteously.
"Alright, then go by yourself. I'll go get some materials for Lu Xuan to make a formation plate. By the way, Luo Xianghan has a lot of eyes and ears in the Peony Palace. Be careful when you go out. "After saying that, Ruo Xiangyi also left without looking back.
Seeing the two leave, Tian Xin was speechless. Why was his treatment so much worse than Lu Xuan's? Although he wanted to go out and see the beautiful girls in the Peony Palace, he gave up on the idea when he thought of Luo Xianghan. It was better to obediently return to his room to cultivate and strive to defeat that old hag as soon as possible.
Lu Xuan was very busy. After Ruo Xiangyi sent the materials, he was busy non-stop. Fortunately, when he was in the Nine Dragons Empire, he had set up a formation in his own Anping Mansion. At that time, he had studied it carefully. Now that he had to make a formation plate, he wasn't completely clueless. It was just that he had to think carefully about what this illusion array would test and how to test it.
For more than a day, Lu Xuan gradually spent his time carving the formation plate. Although he was already a Seven Star Talisman Master, he didn't make a Seven Star Illusion Array. Because time was too tight and the requirements to make a Seven Star Illusion Array were higher, he might not be able to succeed in one try. Therefore, he still chose a Six Star Illusion Array.
With his current strength, a Six Star Illusion Array couldn't be destroyed unless one had the strength of the Origin Realm or above. Otherwise, one would definitely be immersed in the illusion array.
When Lu Xuan came out with the formation plate, Ruo Xiangyi and Tian Xin were already waiting. Because they were worried that they would disturb Lu Xuan, they didn't barge in. When she saw Lu Xuan come out, Ruo Xiangyi said, "Let's go. It's almost time. As the head examiner, it's not good for you to be late. Others might think that our Peony Palace is deliberately putting on airs."
Lu Xuan was startled, "Head examiner?"
"Yes, head examiner. I'll tell you on the way." Ruo Xiangyi didn't hesitate to pull Lu Xuan's hand and walked out.
The examination venue was set in Hundred Flowers City. Therefore, they naturally had to leave the Peony Palace first. On the way, Lu Xuan got an explanation from Ruo Xiangyi. This time, Ruo Xiangyi actually let him be the head examiner. In other words, the other elders of the Peony Palace were only examiners. Lu Xuan had the most power. No matter what the situation was, Lu Xuan could make the decision.
After leaving the Peony Palace, the three of them directly soared into the sky. Under Ruo Xiangyi's lead, they went straight to the examination venue. Not long after, Lu Xuan saw a dense crowd. Obviously, there were already countless people there.
