After Liu Xing's group, the young disciples of the other major clans entered the arena one after another. Even the disciples of the elders and masters of some small sects had entered the arena.
Given the level of secret methods in Northeast Military Region, none of the inherited secret methods could surpass "Fire Dragon Sutra". Of course, the heads of those small sects would like to have their disciples make further progress. As the old saying went, people strive for higher places while water flows to lower places. As sects, they were more or less competitive with each other. However, in Taixia Country, it was common for the disciples of the elders and masters of small sects to join the major sects.
"XXX, Fire Dragon Hermit, congratulations to Fire Dragon Hermit, eternal chakras and firm mountain gate..."
...
"XXX, Fire Dragon Hermit, congratulations to Fire Dragon Hermit, long lasting cultivation base..."
All the young disciples raised their heads and chested out as they uttered similar auspicious words in a respectful manner. Meanwhile, they were both nervous and expectant inside. They all imagined that they would be different after being selected by Fire Dragon Hermit and become like a carp leaping over the dragon gate...
Sitting on the golden chair, Zhang Tie could even sense the accelerated heartbeats of those young people, the rising temperature of their faces and the constriction of their blood vessels in a split second.
These young people looked vigorous and spirited. At this moment, all the young disciples of clans and sects must be excellent. Ordinary clans might not be favored by earth knights; neither would the heads of those clans and sects show them in such an eye-catching occasion.
At this moment, clans and sects were faintly competitive with each other. By presenting themselves in front of Fire Dragon Hermit, it was equal to a military parade and display for the outstanding young disciples of these clans and sects.
There were both men and women among the young disciples. Most of them were below the age of forty. For ordinary people, forty years of age was not considered young. However, in the world of cultivators, because cultivators had a longer lifespan than ordinary people, it was normal for cultivators to reach Level Nine at around the age of forty. It could be said that only at this age could one be considered to have officially stepped onto the path of cultivation.
As knights, besides freaks like Zhang Tie, those who could promote to an earth knight before 100 years old were definitely top talents. In front of an earth knight, these cultivators at 40 years old were just like kindergartners in the eyes of university professors. The gap between them and Zhang Tie in each aspect was too big to be described as a natural chasm.
Few of them were above 40 years old. 1/5 of them were between 30 years old and 40 years old. Most of the elites were between 20 years old and 30 years old. They were not much younger than Zhang Tie. They were the mainstream disciples of each clan and sect. About 1/5 of them were between 10 years old and 20 years old...
Watching these people entering the arena intensely with brilliance in their eyes, some of them pretended to be calm and looked straight into Zhang Tie's eyes; some of them dared not even look at Zhang Tie. Zhang Tie recalled the period when he made a life choice in the last semester after graduation in Blackhot City. At that time, he was so similar to these people. They were all waiting for the judgment of their destinies in an intense and exciting way. Although these people in front of him were hundreds of times higher than him at that time, they might have the same mood as him at that time.
The order of young disciples entering the arena was as same as that of elders and masters of clans. Basically, it was based on their battle strength and influence. Those with great battle strength and influence would show themselves in front of Zhang Tie earlier; the others would not show themselves in front of Zhang Tie. All the others at present had a tacit understanding about this point...
Of course, the first one to enter the arena was Zhu Clan, the provincial governor of Yanzhou Province...
Zhang Tie first got acquainted with Zhu Dabiao. Interestingly, perhaps Zhu Dabiao wanted Zhu Dabiao to experience such an occasion and make friends with Fire Dragon Hermit, Zhu Dabiao was also among the young generation of Zhu Clan.
However, Zhu Dabiao was wearing the uniform of the younger generation of Zhu Clan today. He looked pretty solemn as he didn't look like the lascivious man who was fighting cocks and walking dogs in Youzhou City and Yanghe Prefecture at all. Only Zhang Tie who was familiar with him could find that this guy kept glancing at the beautiful young female disciples of other clans.
When Zhu Clan's disciples entered the arena, Zhu Dabiao looked very inconspicuous among them. The elders of Zhu Clan probably knew about Zhu Dabiao's behavior. Therefore, when the disciples of Zhu Clan stood in a row to congratulate Zhang Tie, Zhu Dabiao just stood on one side safely. However, those people in the middle of Zhu Clan's disciples were much more powerful than Zhu Dabiao who looked fat and big in battle strength.
When Zhang Tie threw a casual glance at him, Zhu Dabiao felt being hit by a mountain peak which was even more powerful than that of his grandpa. Zhu Dabiao was so scared that his heart started pounding as his face turned slightly pale. He dared not even throw a glance at Zhang Tie.
'This guy! ' Zhang Tie sneered inside. However, in a split second, a mischievous thought occurred to Zhang Tie's mind and took the upper hand in a split second...
Zhang Tie pointed his golden pen at a few meters away, causing two drops of golden cinnabar to fly out of his golden pen. One drop of golden cinnabar fell on the forehead of a 30 years old handsome and calm man who was standing in the middle of Zhu Clan. The other drop of golden cinnabar fell on the forehead of Zhu Dabiao who was standing on one side of Zhu Clan.
After a golden light flashed in front of their eyes, the two people felt cold on their foreheads. The disciple in the middle of Zhu Clan's disciples felt like having a dream. He was overjoyed as he hurriedly moved a few steps forward and knelt down in front of Zhang Tie under the admiring and jealous eyes of his fellow disciples. Closely after that, he kowtowed 9 times in front of Zhang Tie. However, Zhu Dabiao didn't seem to know what had happened or still didn't believe it. He only felt that his peers were looking at him in a weird way...
"B * stard, Zhu Dabiao, kneel down and kowtow to your master. What are you looking at? Are you waiting for me to kick your butt..." After hearing Zhu Elder's slightly anxious voice, Zhu Dabiao quivered all over like being splashed with a basin of cold water. He instantly woke up as he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed over 10 times in front of Zhang Tie while feeling a bit dizzy.
'Ah, Zhu Dabiao, kneel down and kowtow to your master. What are you looking at? Are you waiting for me to kick your butt... "Zhu Elder's slightly anxious voice entered Zhu Dabiao's ears. Zhu Dabiao quivered all over like being splashed with a basin of cold water. He instantly woke up as he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed over 10 times in front of Zhang Tie while feeling a bit dizzy.
'The disciple of Fire Dragon Hermit? 'F * ck... I'm rich this time. I will see who dares call me useless in the future... '
Zhu Dabiao became ecstatic inside as he felt that he was really lucky.
Watching Zhu Yuanxing standing up after serving tea to Wang Clan's disciple, Zhu Dabiao had hurriedly knelt down towards Wang Clan's disciple...
At the sight of this scene, Zhu Elder closed his eyes painfully. Even though Zhu Yuanxing, the other disciple of Zhu Clan, kowtowed in front of Fire Dragon Hermit and served tea to him, he still looked dignified and dignified. By contrast, Zhu Dabiao felt like seeing a fat pug arching towards Fire Dragon Hermit while sticking out its tongue.
Thankfully, it was Fire Dragon Hermit's apprenticeship. On this occasion, Zhu Dabiao's performance was not shameful. Therefore, Zhu Elder felt a bit reassured. The only thing that made Zhu Elder depressed was that he didn't know why did Fire Dragon Hermit like Zhu Dabiao. 'Is this his good fortune?'
When he served tea to Zhang Tie, Zhu Dabiao raised his head stealthily and threw a glance at Zhang Tie. However, he had not imagined that he was caught by Zhang Tie. When their eyes met, Zhu Dabiao was so scared that he even spilled the tea. When his hand quivered, Fire Dragon Hermit took the teacup and bottomed it up calmly.
After picking himself up, Zhu Dabiao felt that Fire Dragon Hermit's look was a bit strange. However, he didn't think too much about it as his mind was still in chaos.
After Zhu Clan, it was Qian Clan, the provincial governor of Tongzhou Province...
Although the overall strength of Qian Clan was a bit weaker than that of Huaiyuan Palace, thankfully, Qian Clan rooted in Tongzhou Province for a long time and had a greater influence in Tongzhou Province. Additionally, Tongzhou Province was more prosperous than Youzhou Province. Given this point, Qian Clan ranked second, ahead of Zhang Clan of Huaiyuan Palace. It was reasonable. Both parties looked good. Nobody would say that Iron-Dragon Sect was snobbish.
The number of disciples of Qian Clan was almost the same as that of Zhu Clan. However, there were more female disciples of Qian Clan. Additionally, the female disciples of Qian Clan were of very high quality with top looks and temperaments.
Zhang Tie put down his golden brush pen as he pointed out two disciples of Qian Clan, one was a tall and brilliant woman in the middle of Qian Clan's team, the other was a common youth in the second last place on one side of the team.
Like Zhu Clan, the two people who were selected were a bit thrilled; however, they still completed the ceremony smoothly.
"It seems that the female disciples of Qian Clan are well prepared. It seems that they are taking Zhang Tie as their master and checking whether they could warm the bed for the master!"
Bai Suxian's ridiculing voice drifted into Zhang Tie's ears. Zhang Tie threw a glance at Bai Suxian who was sitting in the distance with a big smile.
"If you talk nonsense again, you will be spanked at night!"
"Master, please come. I can't wait any longer. Do you want to call the female disciple that Master has just accepted? Let's have a dual cultivation of master and disciple. In my eyes, this female disciple hasn't been unsealed yet. Master, are you interested? Qian Family will be more than happy to have you!"
'What an enchantress! '
...
After Qian Clan, it was the turn of Zhang Clan of Huaiyuan Palace. Zhang Clan took two golden invitation cards, one for Huaiyuan Palace and one for his elder brother. Therefore, according to the etiquette, Zhang Clan sent two waves of congratulations.
Of course, the first group was from Huaiyuan Palace. After throwing a glance at these young disciples of Zhang Clan, Zhang Tie pointed at two juniors of Huaiyuan Palace with his golden pen.
The second group of elders of the Zhang Clan had the least number of people, and they were his two nephews, Zhang Chengxu and Zhang Chengze.
Compared to the dozens of people before them, when these two people came up, they were the smallest, the youngest, and the most eye-catching.
"Jinwu Branch of Huaiyuan Palace congratulates Fire Dragon Hermit for eternal chakras and firm mountain gate!"
Zhang Chengxu and Zhang Chengze bowed towards Zhang Tie in a dignified way. Although they were a bit younger than Zhang Chengan, their elder brother, they were already 11 or 12 years old. Zhang Tie could faintly see his elder brother's look when he was young.
Of course, the two people didn't know that Fire Dragon Hermit was their biological uncle.
Zhang Tie sighed inwardly. Then, regardless of what the others thought, he pointed his golden brush and two drops of Dragon Blood Golden Cinnabar flew out and steadily landed on the foreheads of the two people.
Watching Zhang Tie taking two more disciples from Huaiyuan Palace, all the others in the auditorium sighed inside, 'Wow, Zhang Clan of Huaiyuan Palace is really influential. Fire Dragon Hermit of Zhu Clan and Qian Clan only took two disciples from Huaiyuan Palace; however, Huaiyuan Palace took four. It seems that Fire Dragon Hermit really favors Huaiyuan Palace.'
However, although they sighed with emotions inside, they were also thinking about the reason why Fire Dragon Hermit did this — — Because Xuantian City is in Youzhou Province, Fire Dragon Hermit takes care of Zhang Clan a bit; Jinwu Business Group and all-purpose medicament in Jinwu City are favored by Fire Dragon Hermit; or, the two kids have an uncle who is well-known among humans and might recover his freedom soon? Or, both of them...
Zhang Tie didn't know what they were thinking about; however, they all thought that they had found the reason.
It was the disciples of Lu Clan in Spiritualmaple Prefecture. Zhang Tie selected two more disciples of Lu Clan.
After Zhang Tie selected the disciples of Lu Clan, all the onlookers realized that Zhang Tie didn't only select the most outstanding ones in the middle of the major clans. Actually, Zhang Tie would also take care of those on the side of the team who didn't look outstanding. Additionally, besides Zhang Clan, Fire Dragon Hermit would also take care of all the other clans with earth knights, one outstanding and one common. Was there any esoteric trick in this way?
After exchanging a glance with each other, all the elders and knights in the auditorium started to ponder...
Later on, the disciples of the major clans who had earth knights in Tongzhou Province and Yanzhou Province entered the arena one after another. Zhang Tie treated them equally. Each clan selected two disciples, one of whom was an average disciple.
Nobody knew what Zhang Tie was thinking about at this moment. Actually, Zhang Tie's thought was very simple — — he just wanted to spare a chance to those who looked average.
Zhang Tie grew up as a commoner; therefore, he knew the hardships of those with average aptitudes in cultivation.
After the major clans with earth knights were selected, all the other major clans with black iron knights entered the arena.
Compared to the first two, Zhang Tie only selected one disciple from each major clan.
When everybody thought that Fire Dragon Hermit only selected one disciple from each major clan after the major clans with black iron knights entered the arena, the disciples of Wang Clan of Yushun Palace in Ningan City entered the arena. Under the shocked and unbelievable eyes of all the onlookers, Zhang Tie selected 7 disciples of Wang Clan consecutively with a golden light, which shocked the entire venue and Xuantian City...
