The small interlude in the selection ceremony quickly died down. Although the disciples of the Heavenly Bliss Division had obtained the favor of the Holy Son, the trial had only just begun.
In order to stand out, other than one's own strength, one's luck was also very important. Since he had revealed his true form, Yi Tian took up the responsibility of presiding over the ceremony.
When all the disciples received their jade tokens, they once again paid their respects to the Holy Son under the guidance of Grand Elder Wen Xin.
After a while, the voice on the right of Yi Tian's Asura avatar said, "This time, you will enter the array not only based on your cultivation, but also on your courage, insight, and Dao hearts. They will all be tested in the trial."
This was the first time the twenty disciples had come into such close contact with the Holy Son, and they all had excited expressions on their faces as they listened attentively.
Yi Tian scanned these people and found that other than the Heavenly Bliss Division's disciple Yue Qin, there was also a disciple wearing the Heavenly Brahma Mantra Division's robes.
Although he didn't know his name, Yi Tian found that his Divine Sense was more than twice as strong as the other disciples present. In order to cultivate the Asura Dharma Body, one had to first master the Divine Sense. From past experience, if one didn't have strong Spiritual Energy, it was very easy for them to go mad. In the worst case, they would fall into a state of confusion, and it would be difficult for them to wake up.
In the following lecture, he constantly used his Divine Sense to scan the disciples one by one, and he also marked down any areas that made them seem like ordinary people.
Naturally, these actions couldn't be hidden from Grand Elder Wen Xin, but he was also a man of few words. This time, the Holy Son was personally selecting the most suitable successor. No matter who was selected, the division behind him would definitely surpass the other three divisions in the future.
Yi Tian must have considered this matter, but there was nothing he could do about it. He could only hope that the disciples in his division would be able to amaze the world.
After Yi Tian finished speaking, Grand Elder Wen Xin personally led the twenty disciples out of the Holy Son's hall and went straight to the back mountain's forbidden area's trial array.
Yi Tian, on the other hand, didn't need to follow him. He stayed in the hall and waited quietly. After a while, Le Tong Xuan slowly walked over and said, "Your cultivation has improved greatly. You're now at the late stage of Yuanying."
At this moment, only the two of them were left in the hall. Even Di Yutian and Zhuge Wufeng had followed the Great Elder to the back of the mountain. Yi Tian put away his Dharmakaya Avatar and turned to look at Le Tong Xuan. He knew what she was thinking.
Originally, the Goddess of Bliss was the Holy Son's personal attendant. However, after he became the Holy Son, he deliberately distanced himself from the Heaven of Bliss.
This time, Le Tong Xuan finally had the opportunity to get close to him. Of course, she wouldn't let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Then, he smiled and said, "Haven't you also reached the Yuanying stage? To think that we've known each other for so long, and now that we've become successful and famous, there seems to be a barrier between us."
When Le Tong Xuan heard this, her face was first filled with joy. Then, she revealed a trace of worry and said, "You also said that when we first met, you already knew my background. However, your cultivation was far inferior to mine, so you didn't dare to reveal your identity. But now that you've officially become the Holy Son, why are you so distant? "
This was the most troublesome thing for him. He remembered that when he met Qin Mingyue, he had also told him about the Heaven of Bliss. However, he had some indescribable feelings for Le Tong Xuan. In the past, he tried his best to avoid meeting her alone.
Today, there was no way he could catch her in the act. After thinking for a while, he sighed and said, "My identity is special. Other than being the Holy Son of the Wise King Road, I also have a great status in the Middle State. It's inconvenient for me to ignore the Heaven of Bliss."
"Stop bragging. Master is right. The previous Holy Son, Qin Mingyue, was also a stinking man. You and him are the same kind of trash." Le Tong Xuan said disdainfully, "What great status? Isn't he just the Sect Master of the Li Fire Sect? Don't underestimate the strength of the Saint Sect. Anything that happens in the four major continents will be transmitted back immediately. Your identity is not a big secret. There are many people who know about it. "
This time, it was Yi Tian's turn to look uncomfortable. He could not bring himself to say the excuses he had thought of.
Fortunately, Le Tong Xuan's expression changed after a while. She smiled and said, "Don't think too much. To be honest, I like you. Ever since we met for the first time in Dong Ao, I knew you were not someone to be trifled with."
Faced with Le Tong Xuan's direct expression, Yi Tian could only reply with an awkward smile. To be honest, he already had a few Dao companions around him. These people were all shrewd people. Just dealing with them was already difficult enough. He did not want to complicate things further.
Yi Tian paused for a moment before replying, "I have my heart set on the Great Dao. Sooner or later, I will ascend to the Upper Realm. If you can reach the Late Stage in 600 years and spend another 1,000 years trying to break through the Deity Transformation stage, you might have a chance of ascending. "
Le Tong Xuan's expression changed and she bitterly said, "I know that my aptitude is limited. Being able to reach the mid-Nascent Soul stage is already my limit. I can only look up at that ethereal stage."
When Yi Tian heard this, he let out a soft sigh. In the path of cultivation, other than opportunities, one's own aptitude also played a large role. For someone like Le Tong Xuan, who had only reached the Early Stage of Yuanying after 700 years, she had already used up almost all of her potential.
If she really wanted to break through to the next stage, she would not be able to do it without a huge opportunity. After hearing this, Yi Tian did not know what to do. He could only lower his head and sigh.
Le Tong Xuan slowly walked up and bowed in front of him. She softly transmitted her voice and then her entire face turned red. Yi Tian was taken aback when he heard this. He understood the meaning behind her words and knew that this matter depended on his decision.
Although he had already expressed his intentions very tactfully and Le Tong Xuan had expressed that she could understand, her thoughts were still within reason. As the current Heavenly Maiden of Bliss, it was fine when the Holy Disciple position was vacant. However, if she did not serve the Holy Disciple when he returned, it would be inexcusable. If Grand Elder Wen Xin and Di Yutian's Successor Zhuge Wufeng heard this, they would not let him off.
After thinking for a moment, he nodded. Le Tong Xuan's face lit up and she walked up to serve him.
The entire selection process took three days to complete. During this time, most of the people were trapped by the formation not long after entering and could not escape. They activated the formation talismans in their hands and were teleported out.
At noon on the second day, apart from Le Qin of the Heavenly Bliss Division and the disciple of the Heavenly Brahma Mantra Division, the other 18 people had all been eliminated.
Yi Tian checked the list and found out that the disciple of the Heavenly Brahma Mantra Division was called Zhou Chenyang. He was the last person to be selected. If not for the fact that the Heavenly Brahma Mantra Division had eight spots, he would have missed this huge opportunity.
