Half a month later, in the Training Hall of Chiyang School, the head Yang Yanzi was sitting in the center. Next to him were the head of the Weapon Hall, Ning Qingyuan, the Elder of the Training Hall, Bai Qingsong, Ye Qingchen, and the head of the Dan Hall, Deng Qingxiang. Below him were Yan Jungang and Gao Yuanfan, all of whom were waiting on the side.
Yi Tian, who was sitting in front of the head, had changed into the inner disciple's clothes. He was wearing a white robe and a red sweater with three red flames on the cuffs. He had dressed up carefully and looked more righteous, without the usual laziness.
The head of the sect, Yangyan Zi, first praised Yi Tian's contribution to the sect, and then repeated the sect's commandments to Yi Tian. Next, it was Master Ning Qingyuan's turn to say a few words. It was nothing more than the old saying that after entering the Zhuji phase, he had to put the sect's interests first and could not betray the sect.
The whole ceremony was carried out quickly and ended in about a quarter of an hour. Yi Tian's identity jade card that he had lost in the secret realm was also replaced on the spot. When he received the new jade card from Bai Qingsong, Yi Tian looked at it and found that there was almost no difference. There was only a small "2" after his name. After looking at it, Yi Tian also smiled bitterly. The sect was really watertight. The jade card that was replaced was different from the previous one. They really wanted to force the "2" on him.
The head Yang Yanzi also took out a life oil lamp on the spot and asked Yi Tian to draw a drop of blood from his fingertip and put it in. In the future, it would be enshrined in the Ancestral Hall. If there was any accident when he went out traveling, the sect would also know the situation of the disciples through the life oil lamp.
After the ceremony, the head and the Jin Dan cultivators also left. Yi Tian followed Bai Qingsong to the Ancestral Hall behind the Training Hall to pay respects to the Ancestral Master.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw the portrait and memorial tablet of the founder. Yi Tian looked at the memorial tablet and saw the name written on it: Yun Zhongzheng. After a moment of shock, he recalled the letter he had obtained from the banyan tree cave on Mount Yihua. The letter was addressed to Junior Brother Zhong. Could it be that it was addressed to his ancestor, Yun Zhongzheng?
Seeing that Bai Qingsong was busy, Yi Tian didn't want to disturb him. After setting up his life oil lamp, Bai Qingsong instructed Yi Tian, "Follow my example." The two of them bowed in front of the portrait of the Patriarch. After that, Yi Tian lit three incense sticks before kneeling down and kowtowing three times.
After the ceremony, Bai Qingsong asked Yi Tian to pack up the things in his original house and report to the Artifact Hall. After that, he would return to the Technique Hall to receive the blessed land.
Chiyang School's rule was that only inner court cultivators were allowed to fly within the school. After leaving the Technique Hall, Yi Tian didn't care too much. After all, his status was now clear. Touching his storage bag, he felt a chill in his heart. During the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Heavenly Tribulation in the secret realm, he had used all the spirit tools and magic tools he could use. Now, he didn't even have a spirit tool to fly.
After a bitter smile, Yi Tian could only use the Wind Escape Technique and ride the wind. After getting used to flying, he always felt that it was troublesome to walk in the sect. In the past, it was because of his status, but now he could be a little more presumptuous.
After returning to his house, he saw Wu Xing, Tang Lin, Hua Shicheng, and Huang Ziang. Everyone sat down and drank tea together. Everyone first jokingly congratulated him, "Congratulations on becoming an inner court disciple. From now on, you will be a senior." Yi Tian returned their greetings one by one, but he found that in addition to envy, there was also some helplessness in their eyes.
From time to time, he would glance at Yi Tian. Thinking about it, the inner disciple's robes had already widened the gap between them. In the future, their paths would only become further and further apart. He couldn't help but feel melancholy.
At the moment, he couldn't provoke them too much. He could only advise them, "You all can focus on cultivating. Try to reach Foundation Establishment before the age of 30. This time, the sect obtained a lot of spirit herbs from the secret realm. In the next few years, the production of Foundation Establishment Pills will definitely be 30% higher than before. There will be many more opportunities."
Wu Xing was an alchemist, so he didn't have to worry about this. As long as his cultivation increased, he would be able to complete a few more sect missions and use his contribution points to exchange for Foundation Establishment Pills. Not to mention, he had already obtained two pills from the secret realm, so reaching Foundation Establishment wouldn't be a problem. It was just a matter of time.
Shi Cheng also had a harvest. A Building Foundation Pill was already in his bag. As for the other two, it was hard to say. Huang Ziang still had hope. After all, if he worked hard for a few years, he would be able to reap some benefits. However, Tang Lin was a big problem. His cultivation wasn't good enough, and he didn't have the willpower to create a secret realm. These past few years of living in the Discipline Hall had made his willpower a bit depressed. He always lacked the drive he had when he first arrived.
In fact, Yi Tian also wanted to ask Yan Jungang for a Foundation Establishment Pill, but he was flatly refused. Originally, this was the Discipline Hall's quota. Yan Jungang only agreed to it because Yi Tian had done a meritorious deed in eliminating traitors. Now that Yi Tian had successfully reached Foundation Establishment, he wouldn't be able to use it, so the reward was changed to spirit stones and sect contribution points.
When Yi Tian came out of the secret realm, he almost didn't bring anything with him. In the end, he had to wait for Wu Xing to return those storage bags to him. This time, the Discipline Hall privately gave Yi Tian 500 contribution points. Of course, nominally, it was to reward Yan Jungang for his meritorious deed in eliminating traitors. Yi Tian didn't care much about this matter. In any case, there was someone to cover for him.
After the tea party, Yi Tian repeatedly urged his friends not to slack off on their cultivation. He was waiting for them in the Inner Sect. After he finished packing up, he saw Huang Ziang come over with big and small bags. It turned out that he had already registered with the Outer Sect Elder. After Yi Tian left, he took over his original room. He also pulled Wu Xing and said that they would do business together in the future. He also claimed to be the Outer Sect's master of alchemy and craftsmanship. Wu Xing also smiled and acquiesced.
Unable to stand these people's thick skin, Yi Tian directly went out of the door and went to the Weapon Hall. Master Ning Qingyuan just told Yi Tian in the Technique Hall to go to the Weapon Hall to find him after he finished his business. It seemed that there was something important.
After going out, Yi Tian didn't dare to let his master wait for too long. With a burst of wind, he flew directly to the Weapon Hall. On the way, the patrolling Discipline Hall outer sect disciples saw Yi Tian and were about to scold him. However, when they saw the Inner Sect uniform on Yi Tian's body, they obediently shut their mouths and went to do what they were supposed to do.
The Artifact Hall was still the same as usual. The manager at the entrance was busy registering missions. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew and a disciple descended from the air. After taking a look at the disciple's clothes, he put down the brush in his hand and came forward to greet him. However, when he looked at the disciple's lazy face, he could only smile apologetically.
After passing through the lobby of the Weapon Hall, he entered the atrium. This was the place where the Foundation Establishment Stage craftsmen usually gathered. The number of people here was less than one-tenth of the outside. Yi Tian also sighed that the Foundation Establishment Stage was difficult. Then, his eyes flashed and became more determined. He had now taken the most difficult step. Next, he had to set his goal higher and further.
The head of the Weapon Hall, Ning Qingyuan, usually cultivated in the only Heavenly Craftsmanship Room in Chiyang School. Usually, he didn't care much about the Weapon Hall. Usually, the head disciple, Pei Ming, did it for him. In the past few years, the cultivation and skills of the second disciple, Qi Haosi, had slowly caught up. Therefore, the Weapon Hall was now divided into two. The two disciples were in charge of a batch of things and didn't interfere with each other. When there was a dispute, Ning Qingyuan would be asked to take charge of the overall situation.
Today, there were four people sitting in the room of the head of the Weapon Hall. In addition to the master, Ning Qingyuan, there were Pei Ming, Qi Haosi, and Yi Tian. Looking at Yi Tian, who had succeeded in the Foundation Establishment Stage, Ning Qingyuan was also relieved. This new disciple of less than three years had surprised him again and again.
Back then, he was able to stand out in Donghai City. During the Battle of Donghai, he was able to take the lead in breaking the formation. From this, it seemed that Ning Qingyuan had a good eye for people. He entered the Foundation Establishment Stage before the age of 25. The probability of him succeeding in the Jin Dan in the future was much higher than that of ordinary people. Compared with Ning Yuxuan, his qualification was much better.
Looking back at his great-grandson who was in seclusion in his secret room to break through the Foundation Establishment Stage, he couldn't help but sigh. It had been more than a year, but he still hadn't succeeded in the Foundation Establishment Stage. He was really a flower in a greenhouse.
Ning Qingyuan could only blame his family's younger generation for not making progress. He also planned to let Ning Ning and Yi Tian get along more and cultivate their relationship. In the future, when Ning Ning reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, he would let them become Taoist companions. In this way, the Ning Family would have a strong foreign aid. Even if Ning Ning couldn't reach the Foundation Establishment Stage, it wouldn't be too much to let her be Yi Tian's concubine. He believed that when the time came, Yi Tian would take care of the Ning Family more for the sake of this relationship.
Looking at Ning Qingyuan's eyes, Yi Tian didn't know that he had been remembered by his master, and that he was the kind of number one training target. However, his eyes were a bit like a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law, kind and worried.
The reactions of the two senior fellow apprentices next to him were very different. The eldest senior fellow apprentice, Pei Ming, still had a calm look on his face. He closed his eyes and had an indifferent attitude. The second senior fellow apprentice, Qi Haosi, kept smiling at Yi Tian and made a few gestures, meaning that they had something to talk about later.
Ning Qingyuan, who was sitting in the middle, also told the two senior fellow apprentices about Yi Tian's situation and announced, "From today onwards, Yi Tian will be my first direct disciple." After hearing these words, Pei Ming's eyes suddenly opened and stared at Yi Tian. Yi Tian could see from his eyes that it wasn't the joy of celebration, but naked jealousy and hostility. Fortunately, his eyes flashed, and then he saw Pei Ming congratulate Yi Tian for becoming a direct disciple of the Tool Hall and even called him "senior fellow apprentice."
The second senior fellow apprentice's attitude was much better. Although he looked a bit jealous, the smile on his face was from the heart. He also praised Yi Tian's good luck. At the same time, he cupped his hands and congratulated his master on passing down his mantle. He also called Yi Tian "senior fellow apprentice."
Seeing that the situation was a bit awkward, Yi Tian also looked at Ning Qingyuan with a puzzled expression, hoping that he could explain it clearly. A moment later, Yi Tian heard his master's voice, "Inner sect disciples are divided into ranks.
For example, Pei Ming and Qi Haosi belong to the inner sect disciples who have been apprenticed to a master. They are much better than those who don't have a master, but they can only be considered to be in the upper middle class.
A true disciple like you, who is accepted by me, would normally be the successor to the next First Seat of the Artifact Hall. If one day I die of old age or need to cultivate in seclusion, then the Artifact Hall's affairs would normally all fall to you, a true disciple.
The status of a direct disciple cannot be taken away unless it is a big matter like betraying the sect. Every Golden Core cultivator can take in one or two True Disciples. At the same time, all the disciples in the sect will be treated as True Disciples. "
After hearing this, Yi Tian understood that he had inexplicably changed from being the fourth junior fellow apprentice to the eldest senior fellow apprentice. No wonder the two people next to him had strange expressions. Then when Ning Yuxuan came out, he would be able to call him junior fellow apprentice. That feeling was really good, and the image of Ning Yuxuan submissively calling him "eldest senior fellow apprentice" appeared in his mind.
He turned around and looked at Ning Qingyuan. Ning Qingyuan wanted to roast him on the fire. He was still inexperienced, so how could he convince the others? Moreover, the two senior fellow apprentice were both in the late stage of Foundation Establishment. It was a bit of a reversal of order to call him, an early stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, senior fellow apprentice.
Then the two senior fellow apprentice brothers, oh, junior fellow apprentice brothers, got up and left under their master's instructions. When only the two of them were left in the room, Ning Qingyuan tried his best to convince Yi Tian that he was already very old. He estimated that he only had about a hundred years left in his lifespan. If he could establish a true disciple as soon as possible, the sect would feel more at ease. The Tool Hall would also have a backbone in the future.
In addition, he also asked about Yi Tian's cultivation situation and pointed out some shortcomings. After Yi Tian heard it, he also benefited a lot. As for the position of a direct disciple, he would inform the sect. At that time, the sect would send people to distribute the benefits and uniforms of the direct disciples.
In the end, he also told Yi Tian, "You better advance to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment within 30 years. At that time, your position as the eldest senior fellow apprentice brother will be stable." Yi Tian listened with an open mind and said that he would continue to cultivate and strive to advance as soon as possible.
