On the second day, the 10 selected young powerhouses had already arrived at the square early and were waiting for Lin Xiu's arrival.
A portion of those ten young experts had already been accepted as disciples by the powerful elders. Hence, they had also accompanied them here, quietly standing on the plaza.
"Greetings, Guardian Elder."
As soon as Lin Xiu appeared, everyone on the square bowed in unison to express their respect.
Lin Xiu nodded to everyone with a solemn expression, then said in a heavy tone, "Yesterday, the sect master has given me the token to open the forbidden area. We are about to go to the forbidden area for the trial, but I have to say in advance, there is no light there and it is completely dark. What is even more difficult to accept is that you are not allowed to bring any water. When we reach the near-earth space, everything will be up to you. Unless you encounter a danger that is difficult to deal with, then I will take action. And let me say the ugly words first, unless it is something that is beyond your strength, otherwise, even if you die, I will not choose to intervene. "
The young powerhouses at the side did not feel that there was anything wrong with it. Cultivation was originally a heaven-defying thing, if they could not adapt to a complicated environment, how could they stand out among the countless prodigies?
But those elders had been frowning, as though they felt that Lin Xiu's requirements were too harsh. One of the elders who had just reached the Sky Yuan Realm could not help but say to Lin Xiu, "Guardian Elder, these people are the future seeds of the sect. In my opinion, the most important thing is to protect them."
"Now that they're in the sect, we can still protect them. However, eagles can only soar freely in the sky. If we're always protecting them, how can they grow into powerful cultivators in the future?" Lin Xiu's tone became more and more serious, almost using a reprimanding attitude to answer the elder's words.
Lin Qingting, who stood among the crowd, did not say a word at this moment. She had just been reprimanded by Lin Xiu yesterday and naturally would not choose to offend her master at this time.
What Lin Xiu admired about this young lady was that although she seemed to be carefree, she did things in an orderly manner and had a lofty aspiration that was not afraid of hardships and dangers. This was why she was able to stand out in the Gui Yuan Sect, which was filled with experts and geniuses.
Seeing that Lin Xiu had made up his mind, the young elder's face turned red. He felt that Lin Xiu had refuted him and was about to speak again, but he was stopped by the other elders.
What a joke, where is Lin Xiu now? He was the second strongest person in the sect and Lin Xiu was basically the one who paid for the auction in the Void Land. All the elders owed Lin Xiu a huge favor, how could they refute him at this time?
Moreover, these elders were also people who had experienced it before. They naturally understood that there was no smooth sailing on the road of growth for experts. Only by experiencing endless trials would one be able to walk further and further on the path of cultivation.
Flowers that grew up in a greenhouse looked delicate and beautiful, but as long as they were exposed to the wind and rain, they would quickly wither.
Only by experiencing the onslaught of wind and rain from the budding stage, then steadily climbing and thriving could they become towering trees that covered the sky and the sun in the future.
Without looking at these worried elders, Lin Xiu turned his head to the younger generation disciples in front of him and shouted at them, "Tell me, do you have the confidence to display the strength you should have in the management space? I promise all of you here, as long as you can successfully survive this trial, then each of you will receive a gift from me. Except for Lin Qingting, as long as the others perform well, you can become my disciple and have the opportunity to ask me for advice from time to time. "
As soon as this was said, the eyes of those young experts suddenly lit up. Originally, when the humanoid female Tyrannosaurus became Lin Xiu's disciple, it already made them envious and jealous. They did not expect that they would actually have the opportunity to become Lin Xiu's disciple. This was really a pleasant surprise.
Those disciples who had long been accepted by the other elders had a little bitterness at the corner of their mouths.
After the selection ended a few days ago, although they did not successfully become Lin Xiu's disciple like Lin Qingting, they also became the personal disciples of the elders. Their status was different from before and it made them secretly happy, but at this moment, they were filled with regret.
"Guardian Elder, although we are much older than you, the capable ones are the teachers. All of us have witnessed everything that you have experienced all these years. I hope that these children will have a better future under your guidance." A white-haired elder suddenly bowed to Lin Xiu, causing the latter to hurriedly step forward to support him.
"Elder Liu, your words are a little too serious. I am also a part of the sect. Although because of luck, I have a little achievement, the development of the sect still needs to look up to everyone's joint efforts. What you are doing is really undervaluing me." Lin Xiu's attitude was very kind. To him, many of the elders in the sect were his elders and he had not been in the Gui Yuan Sect for long. Although he had unexpectedly left many people's cultivation far behind, he did not become complacent because of this.
The predecessor planted the tree, the posterity reaped the shade. Lin Xiu had always been grateful to the Gui Yuan Sect. If not for this sect back then, he would not have been able to go so far on the path of cultivation.
Seeing Lin Xiu like this, many of the elders couldn't help but touch their snow-white beards, their eyes were filled with gratification.
"It is our Gui Yuan Sect's fortune that the Protector Elder is so broad-minded. Then, we will wait in the sect for the day that the Protector Elder returns. We will definitely hold a feast for you and get drunk for three days!" These elders looked at each other, then clenched their fists and bowed to Lin Xiu, letting out such a grand voice.
