After hearing the old man's words, Zhang Tie had known that this was the last attempt of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace after the disappearance of Dragon Emperor. Although Zhang Tie didn't know about the treatment of immortal generals in other immortal palaces, he knew that Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace could receive 10 element crystals per month, which should be a "high salary" in Motian Realm. The reason behind it was that a big figure in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace might promote to a sage-level knight in 100 years. Therefore, he recruited so many immortal generals at the cost of his life in order to stabilize the foundation of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace when Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was besieged by enemies on all sides.
As long as one was not an idiot, he might be able to figure it out after thinking about it for a short while.
Of course, all the immortal generals in the room were smart. In the blink of an eye, they figured it out too — — there's really no free lunch in the world. The high salary of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace is really not that easy to be earned.
"I could join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace by pledge; however, I have a condition. After joining Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, I need to cultivate for one year after serving Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace for one year. During the period of cultivation, I have the right to refuse any task assigned by Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace!"
The arrogant earth immortal general opened his mouth. After hearing such a condition, Zhang Tie smacked his lips, 'You want a high salary and a long holiday? If Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace could agree with this condition, how to manage the other immortal generals? Without such a treatment, how could the others join us? '
"Are you a supreme-level immortal general?" Before the old man in black robe opened his mouth, the woman in fiery battle armor on his side had asked him.
"I'm an earth immortal general!"
"If so, you'd better not talk about such a condition until you promote to a supreme-level immortal general. By then, we could talk about a higher condition!" That woman was really straightforward. She raised her face and looked at that bro with a critical look with a smile that made him feel ashamed, "Or, if you can defeat a water immortal general at this time and bring back the head of a water demon general from the black realm, you will be more confident to propose such a condition!"
"You …" The arrogant earth immortal general sprung up at once. He wanted to lose his temper; however, after taking a look at that woman and the old man in black robe, he uttered a harrumph and directly left, slamming the door.
The black-robed old man did not urge him to stay and let him leave.
In this world, there were always arrogant people who wanted to be treated as the protagonists wherever they were. They were all suffering from princess syndrome or prince syndrome. That earth immortal general might be like that. Perhaps, he wanted to raise his social status after noticing the dilemma facing Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace; unimaginably, he was despised by others. Zhang Tie found it pretty interesting that these immortal generals of Motian Realm were almost like those immortal generals of Taixia Country. The so-called human nature would never change no matter where it was.
"After making a pledge to join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, could I enter the Classics Pavilion and the Secret Palace of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace?" the cool man asked.
"Immortal generals who have taken an oath to join the immortal palace will adapt to it for 10 years. After 10 years, they will enjoy the corresponding resources with the other immortal generals according to their contributions to the immortal palace …"
'Oh, there's a 10-year probation period?' Zhang Tie was enlightened. However, after thinking about it carefully, he found it reasonable. After all, new immortal generals were freshmen. If a group of new immortal generals could be on an equal footing with the seniors in the immortal palace, it would definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of more seniors. As a result, it would arouse the internal turmoil of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. It was definitely not what the heads of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace wanted. Therefore, they set a 10-year transition period so that the freshmen could become seniors. After making contributions to the immortal palace, they would gradually enjoy the internal resources of the immortal palace.
"10 years!" The cool man let out a deep sigh as he shook his head, saying, "10 years is too long. I, Jiang Zixu, only seize every minute …"
After saying that, the cool man didn't say anything else and left the room.
After 5 people left, there were only 5 people left in the room, namely Zhang Tie, the two women on Zhang Tie's side and the pair of brothers.
During this period, Ji Yuelan appeared to be communicating with the other woman on her side using battle qi. Zhang Tie wondered what they were going to do.
Not knowing why, the two brothers and the two women on Zhang Tie's side all fixated onto him, including the old man in black robe and the woman in fiery armor. Zhang Tie became the focus of everyone in the room.
Scratching his head, Zhang Tie asked straightforwardly, "I've been injured. I don't remember my past. I want to join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. Do you want me?"
"As long as you're not a demon and you're willing to join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, even if you're wounded, you could also join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. Additionally, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace would try its best to cure your wounds!" the old man in black robe told Zhang Tie with a faint tender smile.
"Fine, count me in. I would like to join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace!" Zhang Tie put it straightforwardly.
Zhang Tie's straightforwardness made the old man and the hot woman slightly stunned.
"Have you thought about it?" the old man asked Zhang Tie seriously.
"Haha, of course I've thought it through. I feel your conditions are normal and reasonable. Rights and obligations should be equal. If one wants to enjoy any benefit, he should pay the corresponding price. Your conditions are not harsh. They're fair. Therefore, I accept it!" Zhang Tie shrugged as he said it in a natural way.
"Rights and obligations are equal …" the old man thought about it with a slight frown. Closely after that, he nodded as he said, "Not bad. You hit the nail on the head. What's your name …"
"I'm Zhang Tie!"
"Who else would like to join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace?" the old man asked the other four people.
"We two would like to join you too!" Ji Yuelan replied as she revealed a brilliant smile towards Zhang Tie. The female immortal general on her side nodded too.
Previously, the two brothers were a bit hesitant. However, after they exchanged a glance with Ji Yuelan, Zhang Tie and the other female immortal generals, they hurriedly opened their mouths at the same time, "We two brothers would like to join you too …"
"Well, now that the five of you would like to join us, you could live in the immortal palace for the time being. After a few days, when the recruitment comes to an end, you would hold a vowing ceremony with the other immortal generals and officially join Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. As for now, the immortal palace needs to check that there's no disguised demon among you. After that, you could go back to your residence for a rest …"
