Looking at it from afar, the Seven Star Sect's gate was like a giant palace, no less than three hundred meters tall, incomparably vast, and entirely made of precious white jade. Under the shine of the sun, it flickered brilliantly, like a shrine, and the coiling dragon pillar had lifelike dragon patterns on it, as if it wanted to soar into the sky!

The name of the Seven Stars Sect was written in large characters on the plaque: Dragon Soars the Phoenix, profound in concept. It looked like a steed that had broken free of its reins, galloping in the sky, like a dragon soaring in the sky, coming from nowhere and returning to the void!

Legend has it that these three words came from the founder of the Seven Stars Sect, the Seven Stars Grandmaster. It contained great fortune and great mysteries, but up until now, no one had been able to understand the true meaning of these words!

In front of the mountain gate, there was a square that was constructed from large limestone. The square was extremely large and was over ten thousand mu of land. At this moment, the square was densely packed with people!

There were both men and women, and they were all looking at the small mountain path that was completely made of green rocks. Whenever a youth wearing all sorts of servant clothing came running out of the sect, one or two middle-aged men would immediately rush out from the crowd to welcome them in surprise and embrace them intimately.

The rules of the Seven Stars Sect were strict, and the control over these lowest level service disciples could be said to be even stricter.

However, the higher-ups of the Seven Star Sect weren't truly ruthless. Every year, the relatives of the service disciples would have the opportunity to go up the mountain and pay a visit!

The hot summer June was the only month that the Seven Stars Sect's higher-ups allowed their families to visit the service disciples. Thus, from the beginning of June, the entire month could be said to be packed with people!

Dressed in a black robe, Yang Fan stood there with his eyebrows like sharp swords. In his hand was a big package containing five hundred taels of silver, a Superior Grade Invigorated Meridian Pill, and several sets of clothes made by his mother, Luo Yun.

Watching his parents slowly leave, he didn't know when, but Yang Fan's eyes began to fill with tears!

After leaving home for a year, they had not even seen each other for two hours, yet they had separated again. Who could know the bitterness in their hearts?

At this moment, Yang Fan even had the impulse to go back with his parents. In the world of martial artists, blood was the most important, and he was the lowest of the low-grade ninth grade bloodlines, only slightly better than those who were not able to practice martial arts. Even if he cultivated hard for a lifetime, his achievements were limited, and he could only linger around the lowest level of martial artists, and might not even pass the annual examination in a month's time.

The Seven Stars Sect did not raise waste, and new service disciples would be tested every year. Those who did not break through to the Second Sky would be mercilessly kicked out of the sect.

The human body had 108 meridians. The first realm of martial warrior, the Mai Opening Realm, required one to open all 108 meridians. The entire realm could be divided into nine levels, with the twelve meridians as the first realm, while each realm had five small realms: early, middle, late, peak, and perfect.

In fact, the first round of the annual examination was not difficult at all. The first three levels of the Opening Pulse Realm was only the foundation of the foundation. Even a low-grade ninth rank bloodline cultivator could easily break through to the Second Sky of Sky Realm if they trained hard for a year!

However, the current Yang Fan had only opened ten meridians, and hadn't even stepped into the Great Circle of the First Sky. However, the current Yang Fan had only opened ten meridians, and hadn't even stepped into the Great Circle of the First Sky.

It was him! It's all that damned bastard. Otherwise, how could I not break through to the Second Sky of Sky Realm?!

In terms of hard work, among the many service disciples, he was considered not as number one, but ranked among the best. After a year of tough training, even if he could not reach the late second stage, he would at least be at the early second stage, and would not be bothered by the annual examination. All of this was because, at some point, Yang Fan had already clenched his fists, with veins popping out on his forehead and blood spewing out of his eyes, he was like an enraged beast trying to eat someone!

… ….

After a while, Yang Fan finally calmed down the anger in his heart!

"Dad, mom, don't worry. Fan'er won't let you down!" Five hundred liang of silver, for some disciples of large clans, was nothing much. Just buying a random pill might not be just the same price, but for their family, it was basically the result of their parents saving money for the next half a year.

There was also that Superior Grade Invigorated Meridian Pill, although his parents did not say anything, Yang Fan knew that this was used by his father, Yang Yunfeng, to break through the bottleneck to the sixth stage. However, in order to fulfill his dream and give him the chance to continue staying in the sect, his father gave up on the hope of breaking through and gave this Superior Grade Invigorated Meridian Pill to him!

The love between parents was as great as the heavens. For their children, their parents could give up everything!

"Dad, mom, just watch. Not only will I have to pass the annual examination, I'll even succeed in advancing to the outer court!" Yang Fan clenched his fist and made his decision in his heart. Although Yang Yunfeng never said a word, Yang Fan knew that his father always had a regret in his heart.

From then on, he was a carp leaping to become a dragon, but the difficulty of Copper Lane was not a joke. There were millions of service disciples in the Seven Stars Sect, but among the hundred people that could smoothly pass through Copper Lane, there was not even a single one!

Twenty years ago, Yang Yunfeng was also a service disciple in the Seven Stars Sect and he also dreamed of advancing to the outer sect. Yang Yunfeng was also a service disciple in the Seven Stars Sect, and he also dreamed of advancing to the outer sect.

"Dad, your son will definitely make up for your regret! I swear it!" Yang Fan's face was filled with determination, and unknowingly, he recalled the shocking scene from last night …

"Outer sect!" I will definitely become an outer court disciple! "

Black Bamboo Peak – A small and unremarkable mountain in the Thousand Li Seven Star Mountain Range wasn't taller than a thousand feet because it had numerous swaying Black Bamboo Forests on it, and its name was derived from the Black Bamboo Forest.

There were hundreds of thousands of service disciples in the Seven Stars Sect, so it was naturally impossible for so many service disciples to live in one place, but they were scattered on top of a small mountain like the Black Bamboo Peak. The number of people there was different, more than a few thousand, less than a few hundred, and Yang Fan was one of the six hundred service disciples on the Black Bamboo Peak!

Halfway up the peak, there was a flat piece of land with an area of several hundred mu of land. On it were small, red brick houses. This was the residence of the 600 service disciples of Black Bamboo Peak.

At this moment, all the janitor disciples were sitting in groups of three to five on a patch of empty ground in front of the house. Some of them were talking, some of them were holding jars, some of them were gobbling down large mouthfuls of food, some of them were bare-chested, and some were applying herbs onto their bodies …

Suddenly, a cry of surprise caught everyone's attention, "Yang Fan has returned, Yang Fan has returned!"
