A month passed by in a hurry.
Lin Xiu spent his days cultivating, enjoying the progress of his cultivation and the torture brought about by his physical body.
On this day, all the inner sect disciples who were out had finally returned to the sect.
Inside the sect, the sound of a huge bell resounded through the entire forest.
All the disciples who heard the sound focused their attention in the direction of the Temple of Heaven.
In the Temple of Heaven, all the inner sect disciples stood on both sides, with Lin Xiu and Lu Mingyuan at the back of the line.
The two of them could not help but be a little speechless when they felt the aura of the other disciples.
The Gui Yuan Sect truly deserved to be called the number one sect in this domain. These disciples were only in their twenties, but their cultivations were already extremely powerful.
If they were in a normal city, every one of them would be able to become an overlord. However, in the Gui Yuan Sect, they were only part of the younger generation.
At this moment, these more than 120 inner sect disciples bowed respectfully. On the main seats of the Temple of Heaven sat eight elders from the main sect and the other eight branches.
The elder from the main sect was called Shi Xuchen, and he was in the middle stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm. The other seven elders were in the early stage of the Heavenly Yuan Realm, and he was the leader among the eight people present.
Shi Xuchen stood up from his seat and looked at the many disciples standing below the stage with a gratified and sorrowful look in his eyes.
"This time, apart from the newly promoted inner sect disciples Lin Xiu and Lu Mingyuan, all the other inner sect disciples, a total of 124 people, have all participated in the sect's mission this time."
Shi Xuchen waved his hands gently and gestured for the disciples to stand up.
"Every time you participate in the sect's trial mission, you have to go through a test of blood and fire. Only by experiencing the hardships of battle can you truly grow!"
At this point, a trace of reminiscence flashed in Shi Xuchen's eyes.
"Since the day my Gui Yuan Sect was established, countless powerful seniors have risked their lives and fought for the Gui Yuan Sect. This is how my Gui Yuan Sect has today's glory!"
"This time, the mission is to compete with the people from the neighboring domain, Chu Tianyu, for an ancient relic. The relic is very dangerous and has more restrictions on the strength of those who enter, so the sect can only rely on you to compete."
Sadness flashed across Shi Xuchen's face.
"Each and every one of you is the hope of the Gui Yuan Sect. You are the foundation for the Gui Yuan Sect to continue standing on the Immortal Martial Continent. This time, out of the one hundred and twenty-four inner court disciples, thirteen of them died in the ancient ruins. However, the Gui Yuan Sect is proud of all of you. The Gui Yuan Sect will never forget your contributions to the Gui Yuan Sect."
Apart from Lin Xiu and Lu Mingyuan, the other inner sect disciples all had a look of worry on their faces after hearing Shi Xuchen's words.
Among the dozen or so fallen disciples, some were from the same sect, and some were even their brothers and sisters who were as close as brothers.
Shi Xuchen nodded to the inner disciples below the stage and continued, "Without a bone-chilling experience, how can one smell the fragrance of plum blossoms? I hope that all the disciples of the sects can remember that cultivation is a bumpy road. Behind every expert's rise to fame, they are bathed in blood, filled with blood and slaughter. There are a total of 113 inner disciples present here. The incident that happened in the ancient ruins this time has caused the sect to make more arrangements. "
"I will give all of you half a month to rest and reorganize. Then, the sect will select 20 disciples to carry out a new mission. This mission is more dangerous than the ancient ruins. I hope that all of you can prepare in advance, I don't want to see a tragedy happen again."
After he finished speaking, everyone below the stage agreed in unison.
After waving his hand, Shi Xuchen returned to the main seat. Then, the other elders began to come forward and talk about the contributions of all the disciples who went out to gain experience this time.
After all the rewards were distributed, the eight elders took the lead and left the Temple of Heaven. After the other disciples received their rewards, the original sad atmosphere also dissipated a lot.
In the end, they also began to disperse in twos and threes. In the huge Temple of Heaven, there were only a few scattered figures.
Among them, a few young men stood side by side and exuded an aura that was top-notch among all the inner sect disciples.
They first looked at Lin Xiu, then walked over together with a smile.
"You must be Lin Xiu, the disciple that Master has just accepted." A sturdy young man looked at Lin Xiu in front of him with a smile in his eyes.
"May I ask for senior brother's name?" Lin Xiu was not an ignorant person. After hearing the words of the young man in front of him, he already had some understanding in his heart. These people should be Wu Kejun's disciples, which meant that they were his senior brothers and sisters.
The sturdy young man laughed loudly and said, "I am your third senior brother, Li Jian."
The inner sect disciples beside Li Jian also stepped forward at this time and introduced themselves one after another.
After waiting for them to finish talking, Lin Xiu finally understood their respective identities.
According to them, Wu Kejun accepted a total of seven disciples, including himself.
Among them, the first and second disciples were already in the ranks of the true disciples. As for the third disciple, Li Jian, he was also one of the best among the inner sect disciples and was only a step away from breaking through to the Earth Yuan Realm.
As for his fourth senior brother, Mu Chen, he was a bald young man who seemed to be only a few years older than him. When he smiled, he revealed two front teeth and looked very amiable.
As for the other two disciples of Wu Kejun, they were both valiant and formidable female warriors. Although they were not as good-looking as Liu Yun and Yang Yingxi, they were still above average in the Gui Yuan Sect.
Among them, the fifth senior sister, Huang Yi, was a girl dressed in bright yellow clothes. But what was slightly surprising was that she actually carried a big saber on her back, which made her look petite and cute, have an inexplicable charm.
As for his sixth senior sister, Zhang Ping, she was about the same age as Lin Xiu. She was also the weakest among the disciples accepted by Wu Kejun other than Lin Xiu.
Among the five disciples present, Li Jian was at the peak of the Mortal Yuan Realm, Mu Chen and Huang Yi were both at the middle stage of the Mortal Yuan Realm, and his little senior sister, Zhang Ping, was only at the Harmonious Spirit Realm, which was not too far away from him.
Lin Xiu, who was surrounded by the four of them, was the youngest and had the lowest cultivation, so he naturally became the focus of the others.
And Zhang Ping's personality seemed to be the most jumpy. In the past, she was the youngest among the many disciples, and now she finally had a junior brother.
After looking at Lin Xiu carefully, she suddenly leaned over to Lin Xiu's ear and said mysteriously, "Little junior brother, let me tell you a secret. Our bald senior brother's cooking skills are very good, you must let him hold a feast for you today."
However, the strength of the others was much higher than her. Every single word that she said fell into their ears, causing a burst of ridicule.
Mu Chen rubbed his shiny big head, then laughed and said, "Alright, today we brothers will have a good gathering."
