Just as Lin Xiu and Wu Kejun were discussing about their disciples, the densely packed crowd below had reached the most crucial moment of the trial.
Right now, most of the boys and girls were stuck in the middle of the white jade bridge. At this point, their talents could be said to be quite good. However, if they wanted to successfully enter the Gui Yuan Sect, it was still not enough.
The further they went, the greater the pressure brought by the white jade bridge. Although many of the young men and women had been nurtured by their respective families since they were young and had consumed a lot of treasures, this pressure targeted their souls. They had not experienced too many things and naturally could not withstand such an impact.
Only about one-fifth of the young men and women persisted and crossed the broken bridge. They began to slowly advance deeper. But seeing how exhausted they were, many elders understood that they would probably reach their limits soon.
As for the few outstanding young geniuses, although they were also enduring a lot of pressure at this moment, to them, they were far from reaching their limits. Their faces were still relaxed.
In order to recruit disciples for the Gui Yuan Sect, these young geniuses had secretly put in a lot of hard work. They believed that they were the strongest. However, when they saw that there were still a few people of the same age as them, the competitive spirit in their hearts was ignited. Unknowingly, they sped up a little in an attempt to completely suppress their opponents.
"These little fellows can be said to be extremely talented and rational. Back then, we were almost the same. However, it's a pity. If it wasn't for that little fellow, they would still be able to fight for first place. Now, there really isn't any hope." The elder in charge of this selection shook his head and sighed.
The rest of the people nodded their heads in agreement. Based on their eyesight, they could naturally tell that even though these little fellows were quite powerful, there was still a huge gap between them and that linen clothed youth, who was far ahead of them, in terms of intelligence.
"The test brought by the white jade bridge is not as simple as the pressure. The further they go, the more illusions will appear. We can take this opportunity to see the temperament of these young fellows. Some evil people will definitely not be able to enter our Gui Yuan Sect. " Although the Law Enforcement Hall Elder was sincerely happy for the high aptitude of this disciple, due to his duty, he still had a cold expression on his face as he spoke seriously.
"I say, Old Sun, why do you care so much at a time like this? No matter what, as long as their natural endowments are strong enough, we have to recruit them. Not to mention that even if their temperaments are lacking, they won't be able to do anything in a few decades." Another elder had a different opinion and couldn't help but refute.
"What do you know? If we really cultivate that kind of ungrateful wretch, wouldn't we be inviting the wolf into the house? At that time, we would be lifting a rock and smashing our own feet. We would only be a laughing stock. "The Law Enforcement Elder's face turned red. Obviously, he was angered by the words of his old friend beside him.
Lin Xiu and Wu Kejun couldn't help but frown when they heard the quarrel between the two. Lin Xiu even stood up and berated the two directly, "Aren't you two ashamed to quarrel in public? Watch the selection quietly. If there are any good seedlings, as long as they aren't evil people, we can accept them."
The Law Enforcement Elder looked at Lin Xiu's expression and his heart was still filled with dissatisfaction. He couldn't help but say, "Guardian Elder, please be disappointed. If there really is a genius comparable to you this time, but after a few decades, not only can this person not contribute his strength to the sect, but he also wants to bite back at us. At that time, what should we do?"
The elder who quarreled with him before quietly pulled his sleeve at this time and signaled him to stop talking.
Lin Xiu now had great prestige in the Gui Yuan Sect. Even Wu Kejun couldn't be compared to him. If Lin Xiu was angry, not to mention a small Law Enforcement Elder, even the Range Master who had reached the Universe Realm would not be able to get away with it.
However, obviously, Lin Xiu was not the kind of person who was rude and unreasonable. He also knew that the Law Enforcement Elder's worries were all for the sake of the Gui Yuan Sect. After pondering for a while, he decided to explain the reason to them.
"Everything in this world is relative. Think about it, if everyone is a good person and no one commits crimes, how can we judge who is good and who is bad? If every woman is as beautiful as a flower, how can we judge the difference between beauty and ugliness? Existence is reason. Even if our sect is really unfortunate this time and nurtures the kind of person you speak of, in a few decades, even if he is able to grow, my strength will definitely not be comparable to today's. Naturally, I will be able to easily suppress him! "
Lin Xiu's words were resolute and did not give those elders a chance to argue. Under the sudden burst of aura, it made their breathing stagnate and they could only fortunately sit back in their seats.
Time passed bit by bit and it was night time quietly. The bright moon hung high in the sky and the parents of the young boys and girls were already a little sleepy, but they still stared at every move above without blinking.
"Right now, almost everyone has passed through the middle section. However, they are almost at their limits. I reckon that it won't be long before someone is eliminated." Wu Kejun sighed as she looked at the situation above.
Just as his voice fell, a light flashed and brought back a little girl with some tears on her face.
As soon as the little girl appeared in the surroundings, she clearly understood the true situation at this moment. She felt even more uncomfortable in her heart. However, her parents walked forward and gently patted the girl's back. They said to her in a gentle voice, "You have already done enough. We are proud of you."
Not long after, there were even more flashes of light on the plaza. Many children were eliminated.
"If it was in the past, these little fellows would have been able to successfully enter our Gui Yuan Sect. If they performed outstandingly during the three months of odd jobs, they might even have been able to become inner disciples. However, now …" Some of the female elders had a look of pity on their faces. They had deep sympathy for these young fellows.
But on the continent, everything was about strength. The reason why Guiyang Zhong could have such achievements today was not only because of Lin Xiu's strength, but also because of the many Universe and Earth realm experts that supported the entire sect.
If they wanted to develop and grow, then each generation of disciples had to work hard to become stronger.
Survival of the fittest was the most fundamental law of nature.
The children who were still on the white jade railing and persisting bitterly had almost passed two-thirds of the white jade bridge.
And this standard was precisely the critical point for Gui Yuan Sect to recruit outer sect disciples. Many parents couldn't help but cry tears of joy when they saw their children persisting to this point.
However, Lin Xiu and Wu Kejun looked at each other and discovered an unusual situation. It turned out that among these children who were eliminated, there were actually a few who had very special physiques.
Wu Kejun's heart trembled at this moment. If they really had a special physique, they would definitely advance by leaps and bounds in cultivation. And willpower was nurtured after birth and could be cultivated slowly. But it was a great regret for Gui Yuan Sect to miss out on such a disciple.
Wu Kejun stood up from her seat and slowly rose into the air. Then, she cleared her throat and said loudly, "Children who didn't pass the selection this time, you all still have one more chance. Don't be discouraged. Our selection this time is only for ordinary disciples, but some people are born with extremely powerful physiques. If they cultivate the corresponding spirit power, they will advance by leaps and bounds in terms of cultivation realm. "
"But even if our elders personally investigate, I'm afraid they won't be able to figure out who exactly has such a physique. So, all of you can go back and rest tonight. When the next day comes, I will send someone to the square to test the physiques of these children. As long as they can meet the requirements, we will also take them in. "
Hearing Wu Kejun's words, the eyes of those children and their parents suddenly lit up. The most terrifying thing was to lose all hope. Everyone had a trace of hope in their hearts. What if their children were really not ordinary?
At night, the bright moonlight shone on the entire square.
The children on the white jade bridge were already on the verge of collapsing. To them, under such a strong pressure and having to endure the attacks from the illusion from time to time, it was impossible for them to rest well.
However, there were a few children who didn't think so. During the day, they were a long way behind the true geniuses. If they made full use of the time at night, they might be able to overtake them in one fell swoop.
Those elders wouldn't have such worries for the time being. They were already extremely strong and would be fine even if they didn't sleep for half a month.
At this moment, they looked at the situation above with interest. At the same time, they gathered in twos and threes with their friends around them and talked about their impressions of these children.
"These little guys have extraordinary willpower. As long as they train a little, they will definitely have great achievements in the future. But it's a pity that the Netherworld Palace is still eyeing the continent covetously and won't give the Gui Yuan Sect a chance to develop and grow. I really don't know if these little guys can shoulder the great responsibility of revitalizing the sect. " Wu Kejun was extremely satisfied with the performance of the children above. She touched her pot of tea and said to Lin Xiu with a sigh.
"If the young eagles are under the protection of the eagles, they will never learn to fly. Master, the reason why I chose to go out and adventure at such a young age was also because of this. Moreover, aren't my three disciples doing very well now? Don't worry, old master, you have to believe in these children. "Lin Xiu nodded at Wu Kejun and comforted her.
At this moment, Fang Xu, who was leading by a wide margin, suddenly stopped in his tracks. He was less than a hundred steps away from the white jade bridge.
"That little guy finally can't hold on anymore." Some elders whispered.
The white jade bridge was an artifact of fortune. How could it be so simple?
In fact, the white jade bridge was made up of three different parts, corresponding to the three realms of cultivation!
These young children only had the cultivation of the lower three realms. If they could successfully reach the end, it meant that their willpower was comparable to the peak of the Harmonious Spirit realm. How terrifying was that?
At this moment, everyone thought that Fang Xu had reached his limit.
