In the square outside of the branch family courtyard, there were many youths in their teens standing close to each other!
There were about two hundred plus people in total. Half of them were disciples of the various branch families, while the other half were disciples of other surnames that the Ye Clan had recruited within the boundaries of Celestial Firmament City.
If a big family clan wanted to prosper, they needed fresh blood. It didn't matter if it was a disciple of the main family or a disciple of a different surname. As long as they were talented, they were worth nurturing.
Of course, the focus was still on the main family disciples. Therefore, in the Yeh family, the main family disciples were the most important, followed by the branch family disciples, and lastly, the disciples of the different surname.
The new disciples this time came from the branch family and the disciples of the different surname. As for the main family disciples, they had been nurtured since they were young.
At the edge of the square, there were many teenagers looking at the new disciples from afar. They were all disciples of the main family and their gazes were filled with a sense of superiority.
Ye Weihong stood in front of the 200 new disciples. Beside him was an old man who looked to be in his sixties. The old man gave Ye Xing a very dangerous feeling.
Ye Xing was sure that ever since he came to the Starry Continent, he had never seen such a powerful martial artist. Even Ye Yunlong was much weaker compared to this old man.
This old man should be in the Sixth Stage of the Martial Path. Ye Xing scanned him with his super brain. Indeed, he was in the Sixth Stage of the Martial Path.
"Juniors, from today onwards, you are officially disciples of the Ye family in Celestial Azure City. From today onwards, the glory of the Ye family is your glory and the shame of the Ye family is your shame. You must remember this: no matter what, you will always be with the Ye family!"
Ye Weihong said loudly, "Now, say it again!"
"No matter what, we will always be with the Ye family!" The juniors shouted.
"Too soft …!" Ye Weihong's voice was like thunder.
"No matter what, we will always be with the Ye family!" The juniors shouted.
"Say it again!"
"No matter what, we will always be with the Ye family!"
Ye Weihong finally nodded in satisfaction. "Good. Remember what you said today. From today onwards, anyone who dares to harm the Ye family is your enemy!"
After saying that, Ye Weihong introduced the old man beside him to the juniors, "This is our clan's Elder Ye Wenying, in charge of the new disciples' cultivation. Next, Elder Ye Wenying, please speak."
Ye Xing and Ye Feng both blinked and turned to look at each other. Today could be considered their first day in the main Yeh family, yet they had already met Elder Ye Wenying.
Ye Wenying was actually in charge of the cultivation of the new disciples. Ye Xing and Ye Feng both had a bad premonition.
Ye Xing and Ye Feng merely turned their heads, but Ye Wenying's eyes were already fixed on them. His gaze was as sharp as an eagle's.
Ye Wenying took a few steps forward and said, "First of all, this old man represents the Ye family to welcome you juniors. Second, this old man wants to warn you that no matter how great you were in the past, whether you were a dragon or a tiger, you must know your place in the main family. If you are a dragon or a tiger, you must lie down. If anyone dares to challenge my authority, this old man will give you an unforgettable memory for the rest of your life!"
After pausing for a bit, Ye Wenying continued, "The Ye family is a large family with rules and regulations. Rewards and punishments are clear, and resources are limited. However, we have a large number of people. The rule of the Ye family is to work for the mediocre and value the elites! Next, we'll conduct the Heavenly Fate Test. Those with six stars and above will be accepted as personal disciples by the elders and will be heavily nurtured. Those with five stars don't need to work and will cultivate every day. As for those with four stars, they will be assigned to different departments and have to complete their tasks. Next, we'll begin the test! "
As Ye Wenying spoke, a deacon moved a stone and placed it on the square in front of the crowd.
This stone was completely black with a groove in the middle and a row of stars engraved on the side. There were a total of nine stars.
"This is the Blood Fate Stone. Starting from the left, report your name, origin, age, and cultivation. Then, drip a drop of blood into the groove in the middle of the stone to test your Heaven's Mandate. This is one of the criteria for your treatment!"
Ye Wenying waved his hand and said.
"Ye Yuheng, from Green Mulberry Town, fourteen years old, third stage of the Martial Path!"
The first youth on the left walked to the Blood Fate Stone and said loudly. He then bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood into the groove in the middle of the stone.
Soon, the stars on the Blood Fate Stone began to emit a red light. One star … two stars … Finally, five stars lit up!
"Green Mulberry Town, Ye Yuheng, five stars of Heaven's Mandate." Ye Weihong announced Ye Yuheng's talent.
"Ye Yufeng, from Green Mulberry Town, sixteen years old, fourth stage of the Martial Path!"
Soon, a second youth went up and dripped a drop of blood into the Blood Fate Stone. Only four stars lit up.
"Green Mulberry Town, Ye Yufeng, four stars of Heaven's Mandate!" Ye Weihong announced.
…
"Sky Water Town, Ye Yidao, four stars of Heaven's Mandate …!"
"Sky Water Town, Ye Yijian, four stars of Heaven's Mandate …!"
"Hundred Justice Town, Ye Baisheng, four stars of Heaven's Mandate …!"
"Hundred Justice Town, Ye Baiyuan, five stars of Heaven's Mandate …!"
…
The test started with the branch family disciples. Soon, there were dozens of juniors taking the test.
Most of them had four stars of Heaven's Mandate and a few of them had five stars. As for those above five stars or below, there wasn't a single one.
"Thousand Bull Town, Ye Man, six stars of Heaven's Mandate …!"
When the forty-ninth youth's result came out, there was a burst of exclamations in the square.
From the start of the test until now, this was the only six stars of Heaven's Mandate!
Even Ye Wenying's eyes lit up as he said, "Good, Ye Man, I want to accept you as my personal disciple. Are you willing?"
Under the envious gazes of the crowd, Ye Man was overjoyed and immediately bowed to Ye Wenying, "Disciple greets Master!"
Ye Wenying nodded with satisfaction and said, "Good, you don't need to participate in the rest of the test. Go back and pack your things. In the future, stay at my place and someone will take you there.
Under the envious gazes of the crowd, Ye Man left.
Six stars of Heaven's Mandate, even among the main family disciples, were rare. Once they appeared, they would definitely be geniuses.
This time, after Ye Man, there were no other juniors with six stars of Heaven's Mandate. Most of them were four stars of Heaven's Mandate and there were fewer five stars of Heaven's Mandate.
"Ye Xing, from Green Leaf Town, sixteen years old, third level of the Martial Path!" Not long after, it was Ye Xing's turn. He was the first one to go up.
Ye Xing didn't even drip his blood. As soon as he reported his origin, age, and cultivation, a few youths sneered.
A sixteen year old third level of the Martial Path, only two had appeared in the past. It was even rarer than five stars of Heaven's Mandate. His talent was really bad.
As the youths sneered, Ye Xing felt a sharp gaze sweep over. It was Ye Wenying.
Whether it was the other youths or Ye Wenying's gaze, Ye Xing was unmoved. His expression was calm as he bit his finger and dripped a drop of blood on the blood life stone.
Soon, the stars on the blood life stone emitted a red light. One star … two stars … the third star faintly flickered for a moment before extinguishing.
"Two … two star Heaven's Mandate?" Ye Weihong's voice was filled with shock.
One to three star Heaven's Mandates were considered low-grade Heaven's Mandates. Every time the Yeh family recruited a disciple, it would be hard for them to produce a three star Heaven's Mandate. As for two star Heaven's Mandate, it had never appeared before.
To be able to be chosen by the main family of the Yeh family, they were all geniuses in the branch families. How could they only be two star Heaven's Mandate?
Talent was divided into two aspects. One was the Astrology, and the other was the Heaven's Mandate. The Astrology was related to the soul, and the Heaven's Mandate was related to the body.
Ye Xing was speechless. His soul was his, but his body belonged to the original owner. He knew that the original owner's talent was very bad, but he didn't expect it to be this bad. Not only did he not have an Astrology, he couldn't sense the stars, and even his Heaven's Mandate was only two stars.
When Ye Weihong announced the result, the youths' sneers turned into laughter. In the previous test, the worst was only a four star Heaven's Mandate. A two star Heaven's Mandate? This was simply a trash, a piece of trash!
"No wonder he's only sixteen years old and is only at the third level of the Martial Path!"
"How was he chosen to join the main family? Is there no one in Green Leaf Village? "
Many disciples from the other branch families began to ridicule.
Ye Feng, Ye Qing, and Liu Shuangling were also shocked. They didn't dare to believe that Ye Xing was only a two star Heaven's Mandate when he performed so well in the Green Leaf Village's gathering?
If this was spread back to Green Leaf Village, who would believe it?
Ye Xing had a mature soul, so he didn't feel ashamed. Moreover, he didn't think that his talent was bad just because his Heaven's Mandate was low. He felt that his Astrology was extraordinary, and talent was the combined potential of the Heaven's Mandate and Astrology!
Moreover, his cultivation speed also proved that a two star Heaven's Mandate was not scary!
Under everyone's ridicule, Ye Xing walked back to his seat. At this time, a voice sounded, "Who is your father?"
Ye Xing stopped and looked at Ye Wenying, "Ye Feihong."
Ye Wenying suddenly laughed, "So you're Ye Tiannan's grandson, hahaha … Ye Tiannan, ah Ye Tiannan, you're a six star Heaven's Mandate, but you actually produced a two star Heaven's Mandate trash. Laughable, truly laughable, hahaha …!"
Seeing Ye Wenying's savage laughter, Ye Xing asked, "Elder, is a low Heaven's Mandate trash?"
Ye Wenying didn't think that Ye Xing would dare to ask him such a question. He was stunned for a moment before he shouted, "A low Heaven's Mandate is obviously trash!"
Ye Xing shook his head and said, "Junior doesn't think so. Junior thinks that a low Heaven's Mandate trash!"
Ye Wenying's heart felt stifled. He had a feeling that he was speechless. Even the youths who were ridiculing couldn't help but be stunned and suddenly became quiet.
"Hmph! A two star Heaven's Mandate trash dares to talk about strength! "At this time, a disdainful voice came from the crowd.
The person who spoke was Ye Baiyuan from the Baiyi Town's branch family. He was sixteen years old and his cultivation was at the peak of the fourth stage of the Martial Path. Among the new disciples, his cultivation was the highest.
Ye Baiyuan's words were echoed by a few people. They were all five star Heaven's Mandate geniuses. As for the four star Heaven's Mandate geniuses, they all agreed with Ye Xing's words.
If a low Heaven's Mandate was trash, then wouldn't they also be trash compared to five star Heaven's Mandate geniuses?
No, of course not! Ye Xing's words hit the bottom of their hearts. A low Heaven's Mandate geniuses are trash!
Some of the confident four star Heaven's Mandate geniuses didn't feel that they were weaker than five star Heaven's Mandate geniuses!
