After an intense round of competition, the ten people who had successfully obtained the ten quotas were finally decided.
Lin Xiaoxiu naturally won without a doubt, and the male and female disciples that Lin Xiu favored were also successfully selected.
At this moment, they stood on the stage in high spirits. Wu Kejun and the other higher-ups of the sect also walked down from the high platform and nodded their heads in satisfaction. Then, they announced to the crowd on the stage, "This is only the first batch of candidates to enter the forbidden area. Following this exploration, there will be more teams in the future. Disciples who didn't get a spot don't be discouraged, as long as you cultivate well, you will still have a chance to enter."
Looking at the disciples who failed, Wu Kejun's eyes flowed with a lot of encouragement, then he pointed to the elders beside him.
"We have also carefully observed the previous battles of you disciples. After my discussion with some of the elders, those among you who have performed well will have a high chance of directly becoming an elder's disciple to train."
After he said that, the eyes of all the disciples lit up. Even if they couldn't successfully enter the forbidden area to explore, if they could become the disciple of an elder, it would definitely allow them to avoid many detours on the path of cultivation. Naturally, they wouldn't reject such a good thing.
Liu Jiangtao, who was below the stage, patted his friend Zhou Lei's shoulder at this moment, raised his brows, then said aloud, "Do you believe that there are definitely elders who have taken a fancy to my cultivation talent and want me to become a disciple?"
Zhou Lei did not know whether to laugh or cry when he saw his good friend's arrogant manner. A cold snort was emitted from his nose. After which, he purposefully ridiculed, "If a coward like you could be accepted by the elder, I'm afraid that I would be able to become the sect leader's direct disciple."
The onlookers below the stage were also in an uproar at this moment. They were naturally envious of these seeded participants' opportunities, but this stimulated the desire for cultivation in their hearts. If one day they could also stand on the stage and fight, then this glory would naturally belong to them.
Wu Kejun was very satisfied with the current situation. Seeing that everyone's eyes were burning with passion, he gently waved his hand, motioning for everyone to quiet down, then turned slightly to the right, revealing the figures of more than 10 elders.
The Water faction elder took a step forward, then swept his gaze across the field, and finally found Liu Jiangtao. He nodded his head in satisfaction and said loudly, "Liu Jiangtao, I wonder if you are willing to become a disciple of my Water faction?"
After these words were spoken, many people in the surroundings felt extremely puzzled. All of them had witnessed Liu Jiangtao's performance on the battlefield earlier, and he didn't even have the courage to attack when facing Lin Xiaoxiu. An elder actually took a liking to such a fellow?
Other than Liu Jiangtao, who seemed to have expected this, the rest of the disciples were in an uproar. Even Liu Jiangtao's good friends felt a little shocked at this moment. They stared blankly at their good friends. They didn't expect that Liu Jiangtao would actually be right.
"Disciple is willing." At this moment, Liu Jiangtao's performance was neither servile nor overbearing. This kind of calm attitude made the Water faction elder feel sincerely happy.
Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, the elder cleared his throat and explained to everyone, "On the path of cultivation, not only do you need to have a courageous temperament, but you also need to learn how to judge the situation. In life, you will encounter many difficulties and obstacles. Facing enemies that you can't fight against, temporarily retiring from the military does not mean that you are weak. Instead, you can accumulate strength and leave a path of retreat for the future when you make a comeback."
Although many people were still a little puzzled by the elder's decision, since the elder had already said so, they naturally wouldn't pursue the matter. However, their eyes were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred as they looked at Liu Jiangtao.
However, since even Liu Jiangtao had received such a high evaluation, who knew how many of those who persisted until the last moment would successfully become the disciple of the sect's upper echelon?
Just as everyone was waiting there, Huo Burning Tian also came forward and smiled slightly. He revealed a pleasant expression to Lin Xiaoxiu and tried to make his voice as gentle as possible.
Lin Xiaoxiu was originally looking around confidently. When the other opponents saw her, they hurriedly lowered their heads, afraid that they would be targeted by this female T-Rex.
But at this moment, after hearing Elder Huo Burning Tian's name, she immediately jumped up like a cat that had its tail stepped on. She pointed at herself in a daze, then pointed at Elder Huo Burning Tian, and finally said with uncertainty, "Elder, are you joking with me?"
Elder Huo Burning Tian was a little helpless, then he scratched his head and glanced at Lin Xiu, who was standing beside him, wanting Lin Xiu to say something good for him.
"Lass, your temper is really too similar to my character. If you let me teach you, you will definitely surpass this old man in less than 20 years. Why do you need to worship this silly kid as a teacher?"
After saying this, Elder Huo Burning Tian tugged on the corner of Lin Xiu's clothes. Left with no choice, Lin Xiu could only stand out and mediate for Elder Huo Burning Tian.
"I say, Lin Xiaoxiu, Elder Huo Burning Heaven really is a good choice. Don't be fooled by his fiery temper. In terms of fire attribute spiritual power, there aren't many people in the entire Sect that are his match."
Huo Burning Tian was overjoyed, it was obvious that he felt very comfortable with Lin Xiu's flattery.
But what made his expression change was that Lin Xiaoxiu obviously did not have such thoughts. She revealed an aggrieved expression, then pouted and looked at Lin Xiu with extreme resentment. Then, she said unhappily, "Master, do you really want your disciple to change sects that much? This old man is not as strong as you. If I follow him, wouldn't a peerless unpolished jade be wasted for nothing? This would be a huge loss to the sect. "
Lin Xiaoxiu's words were very serious. Many of the higher-ups of the sect held back their laughter. This little lass's words could be said to be merciless, causing Huo Burning Tian to be extremely embarrassed.
"Sigh, you lass, but if you want to worship Lin Xiu as a teacher, there will be a certain degree of difficulty. If you can't perform well in the forbidden area and satisfy him, then you can come back and look for this old man." Unexpectedly, Huo Burning Tian was not angry, but sincerely asked Lin Xiaoxiu to stay.
A true teacher would definitely have a broad mind and would not be disturbed by some words of the younger generation.
