Chapter 268: Disciple Selection

On a mountain peak, the people who had just joined the Everlasting Sword Sect gathered together and waited patiently.

This was the second day they had passed the assessment and joined the Everlasting Sword Sect.

Many elders of the Everlasting Sword Sect would personally come to select satisfactory disciples.

Ming Huang was one of the people waiting, but he was very clear about his own aptitude. He knew that with his aptitude, it was difficult to be picked by the elders of the Everlasting Sword Sect.

Having said that, at this time, there was still a bit of illusion in his heart. Maybe he was lucky, and he would be accidentally caught by a certain elder…

He looked around and found that those with ordinary aptitudes were another matter, but the geniuses tested last time, as well as a group of super geniuses was surrounded by a large group of people.

Those ordinary people were desperately trying to please them.

"When they become a disciple of the Everlasting Sword Sect, those people will also fly into the sky," Ming Huang thought with some envy.

At this time, many deacons of the Everlasting Sword Sect appeared, and everyone realized something and quieted down.

"Everyone, the people who will be coming are all big people. No one is allowed to make noise or presumptuous. Otherwise, you will all be expelled from the Everlasting Sword Sect!" A deacon warned loudly.

Everyone hurriedly held their breath, they didn't even dare to breathe loudly.

Not long afterward, a flash of thunder manifested, and a figure fell from the sky.

"Elder Lei Zhen is here!" The deacon introduced loudly.

As soon as his voice fell, another muffled sound was heard, and another fierce-looking elder arrived.

"Elder Dong Wanqian is here!" The deacon introduced again.

"Whoosh, whoosh..."

Several figures descended from the sky in succession, all of them were elders and great figures of the Everlasting Sword Sect.

Although these elders were not lined up, they were full of momentum.

This was still only a part of the elders; the head of the Everlasting Sword Sect did not personally come. But many people who had never seen similar scenes were trembling and nervous.

Ming Huang was born in an ordinary small mountain village. Naturally, he was also someone who had never seen a similar scene. At this moment, he was also shocked by the aura of the major elders.

But soon, it was discovered that there was a person he actually knew.

"Elder Mo Xiu is here!" The deacon shouted last.

"Elder Mo?" Ming Huang was very puzzled. He had seen Mo Xiu before, but the impression that Mo Xiu gave him was not like an elder of the Everlasting Sword Sect, but like an outsider.

Why did he suddenly appear as the elder of the Everlasting Sword Sect?

Although he didn't know what was going on, he remembered what Mo Xiu had told him before, saying that he would still be looking for him...

Was it possible that Elder Mo would take him as a handyman?

Since it was impossible to be a disciple, but if he was to work as a handyman for Mo Xiu, it seemed that it was not unacceptable.

At the thought of this possibility, he was secretly excited.

Not only Ming Huang, but the elders of the Everlasting Sword Sect also noticed the arrival of Mo Xiu, looking at Mo Xiu one by one, their expressions became a little weird.

Lei Zhen had already learned the news and knew that Mo Xiu had the idea of ​​accepting disciples, so it was not particularly strange.

However, he still felt a little speechless.

This guy knew that he couldn't receive his apprentice, but he still dared to come and receive humiliation? 

"Elder Mo, you just joined the Everlasting Sword Sect, but you want to come to accept disciples?" Dong Wanqian asked everyone's doubts.

It was not only an inquiry but also a warning, warning Mo Xiu not to mess around.

Since he just joined the Everlasting Sword Sect, finding a way to gain a firm foothold was the most important thing. They could understand this.

But these talented newcomers were not something Mo Xiu could take in, so they didn't think Mo Xiu should come here.

Mo Xiu would naturally not withdraw just because of Dong Wanqian's words. Otherwise, he was afraid that he would become the laughing stock of the entire Everlasting Sword Sect.

He was certain to come here to accept disciples.

He glanced at Dong Wanqian and said faintly, "A handyman betrayed me yesterday and was executed by me. I came here to see and pick another one. The matter of accepting a disciple is not certain, it depends on fate."

"Fate?"

Lei Zhen couldn't help but sneer, "Even if you want to accept a disciple, they have to be willing to worship you as their teacher. I think you just want to humiliate yourself."

"Humiliate myself?" Mo Xiu glanced at Lei Zhen arrogantly. "As long as I am willing, I will accept whoever I want to. How can I humiliate myself?"

"..."

All the elders felt a little speechless when they heard this.

For the time being, those with ordinary talents were left aside, but those with higher talents had their own right to choose.

Even they dared not say that they would accept whoever they wanted. Where did Mo Xiu find confidence from to utter this Kind of words?

"Jumping clown; ridiculously overrate yourself," Lei Zhen sneered unceremoniously.

"..."

Mo Xiu didn't care very much about this barking dog and didn't intend to explain either.

He just looked at those who had just joined the Everlasting Sword Sect and wanted to see if there was a fish that slipped through the net like Ming Huang.

There were a total of 328 people who had just joined the Everlasting Sword Sect this year, but only a few of them had outstanding talents.

Those who could let the major elders come to compete were the few of them, those with outstanding talents. 

The process of accepting disciples was that the deacon read the name one by one.

The person who heard his or her name could just come forward, and the elders present would reveal the idea of ​​accepting disciples, and then see if that person was willing to worship that elder as his or her teacher.

If they were willing, they could leave with that elder, and the apprenticeship ceremony would be held slowly when they returned.

The elders who were there would not come in person unless they met the geniuses who were eye-catching.

However, these elders could not have so much time to spend. Therefore, the first names to be pronounced must be those with higher talents who had been tested. 

In other words, the higher the talent, the sooner the name would be pronounced.

Before the process could start, Lei Zhen suddenly said to the elders present, "I have something to say first. If you want to take someone else, just go do it. But Gongsun Zhi, I want her. Who of you dares to snatch her with me, I'll never end with him!"

Gongsun Zhi should be regarded as the most talented among the group of people who joined the Everlasting Sword Sect, and one of the geniuses that even Mo Xiu had to admit.

Mo Xiu searched for Gongsun Zhi among the crowd based on the information obtained before.

After a while, his eyes fell on an eleven or twelve-year-old girl.

Gongsun Zhi, age twelve, but had been cultivating for five years.

She was from the Gongsun Family in Flying Leaf Province, but the Gongsun Family had long since fallen, so they were willing to send a genius like Gongsun Zhi to the Everlasting Sword Sect for training.

Twelve-year-old Gongsun Zhi, whose cultivation base had now reached the Great Perfection-stage of the Profound Spirit Realm, was only one step away from the Essence Converging Realm.

It took her five years to cultivate to the final stage of the Profound Spirit Realm. This speed of cultivation was pretty good. But with this alone, it was not enough for her to be a great genius.

What Mo Xiu really recognized was that this girl had a Phaseless Spiritual Vein, and this Phaseless Spiritual Vein was only the result of detection by the people of the Everlasting Sword Sect.

Under the outer garment of the Phaseless Spiritual Vein, there was actually a Phaseless Divine Vein.

Just a Phaseless Divine Vein was enough for Mo Xiu to approve of her.

It was a pity that Gongsun Zhi didn't practice the corresponding technique, and she didn't even know how to use the power of the Phaseless Divine Vein.

She only knew how to cultivate and improve her cultivation base.

The person with the highest talent was naturally the person whose name was pronounced first.

When the deacon present yelled out the name "Gongsun Zhi", everyone gave up one way after another.

A very delicate little 12-year-old girl stepped forward. It was Gongsun Zhi.

"Gongsun Zhi has seen all the elders."

In the final say, Gongsun Zhi was born in a great family.

Although the Gongsun Family had fallen, she still learned a lot of etiquette from the family. Only one salute could show her self-cultivation as a member of the Gongsun Family.

The elders were very satisfied with Gongsun Zhi's performance, and they wished to accept Gongsun Zhi as their apprentice.

However, they had already said the matter of accepting disciples in private.

Just now, Lei Zhen also emphasized it specially. They also did not want to offend Lei Zhen, so they would not snatch Lei Zhen.

Lei Zhen glanced at the elders and was satisfied with the response of the elders.

He smiled, took a step forward, looked at Gongsun Zhi, and asked, "Gongsun Zhi, would you like to worship me as your teacher?"

Gongsun Zhi nodded, then just as she was about to speak, a voice floated out, "Hold on!"

The speaker was Mo Xiu.

Everyone hurriedly looked at Mo Xiu with a trace of astonishment on their faces.

"Mo Xiu, what do you want to do?!" Lei Zhen's face was very ugly. A bad premonition also bloomed in his heart.

Mo Xiu looked calmly at Lei Zhen, then at Gongsun Zhi, and said lightly, "She has a good aptitude and is qualified to be my apprentice."

"You...!" Lei Zhen was immediately enraged.

He just said that no one was allowed to snatch Gongsun Zhi with him. Now, Mo Xiu stood up and snatched her with him. This damn fellow did not even put Lei Zhen in his eyes at all.

He took a deep breath, looked at Mo Xiu, and said coldly, "You mean, you want to snatch her with me?"

"Snatch?"

Mo Xiu felt a bit ridiculous, "She is a person, not a bag of goods. How can use the term 'snatch'? Besides, even if it's a bag of goods, what right do you have to snatch it with me?"

"You're looking for death!"

Lei Zhen was furious. With his hand extended, a sword gleaming with thunder and lightning appeared in his hand, and he was about to rush towards Mo Xiu.

"Elder Lei!"

Dong Wanqian shouted timely and quickly stood in front of Mo Xiu.

The other elders also took action, stopping Lei Zhen, not allowing Lei Zhen to move his hands.

In front of so many people, he actually wanted to kill Mo Xiu when he was dissatisfied with just a sentence.

Even if Lei Zhen was one of the nine elders and had a higher status than the average elder, this kind of thing was not allowed.

Mo Xiu was naturally not afraid of this dog either, but he had no opinion when everyone wanted to stop it.

Lei Zhen also felt he was a bit too impulsive, so he calmed down quickly. His murderous aura faded, and he stared at Mo Xiu coldly with eyes that seemed to kill.

After a long time, after taking a few deep breaths, he said, "I am not qualified to snatch from you? You are really ridiculous. I am one of the nine elders of the Everlasting Sword Sect. The one who is not qualified to snatch is you!"

After speaking, he turned to look at Gongsun Zhi, trying to soften his tone, "Gongsun Zhi, tell me who you want to worship as a teacher."

Gongsun Zhi didn't even look at Mo Xiu, and replied, "Naturally..."
