  Chapter 309 Recruiting new disciples

  In the earliest period, unless the immortal seedlings with four spiritual root qualifications showed other strengths, or were strongly recommended by the elders, it was difficult to enter the Qingfeng sect directly.

  Because at that time, the entry of Xianmiao was the outer sect disciples, and the handyman disciples were reserved for those casual cultivators who led art investment teachers.

   Wait until Gu Xisheng takes over as the acting head, and the number of disciples is in short supply due to the rapid development of Qingfengmen, before the entry requirements are relaxed.

   Not only is the threshold for casual cultivators greatly lowered, but also the fairy seedlings recommended from all over the world, even fake spiritual roots, can be accepted.

  According to Gu Xisheng, even if you can only practice to the fourth level of Qi Refining, you can always do it by learning the spirit planting spell to take care of the spirit field.

  Under such a background, the number of handyman disciples recruited by the Dakai Mountain Gate of Qingfengmen gradually expanded from one hundred to five hundred each time.

  And this time, a quota of 1,200 people was directly given.

  Newly occupying a county, there is a shortage of people everywhere.

  The loyalty and development potential of fairy seedlings cultivated from scratch are better, but Qingfengmen can't afford to wait for 20 or 30 years of cultivation time, so they should first securely occupy those resource points.

  The situation in Hejian County is different. Bai Zichen wants to take over all these seedlings and inform all parties.

   Qingfeng Gate is definitely not just passing through here, but to truly establish a firm foothold in Hejian County.

  At the same time, there is absolutely no discrimination against monks born in Hejian, and both sides treat them equally.

   To speed up the control of Hejian County, it is inevitable to use local monks, otherwise there is no need to set up another venue in Wanxianjian to recruit disciples.

  Just recruit them in this mountain together, and then assign them to Wanxianjian.

  These twenty-seven fairy seedlings were discovered by the disciples of the Qingfeng Sect. In fact, they had already gone to Wanxianjian to learn common sense and teach basic exercises.

   It's just that the identity has not been conferred yet, and he only waits for the day when the mountain gate is opened to truly become a Qingfengmen disciple together with others.

  From this number, it can be seen that Qingfengmen's control over Hejian County is far from deep enough.

  Three times that of Dingkou in Heishan County, and less than half of the fairy seedlings found by Yinling.

  In addition, none of the twenty-seven people can break through the rules and become inner disciples, and nearly half of them are handyman disciples, which shows that the quality of this batch of fairy seedlings is also not good.

"Too few. The target of recruiting apprentices this time is 600 servant disciples, 100 outer disciples, and 10 inner disciples... According to the number of applicants, there is no way to select suitable disciples. In the end, the standard must be lowered. Either there are vacancies."

  Actually, according to Bai Zichen's idea, the handyman disciples don't care about their aptitude at all, as long as they are young enough.

   I don’t expect to be able to cultivate to a high level. It takes a few years to distinguish which one of the hundred arts is most suitable for you, and just study the skills.

  No matter what kind of profession in Hundred Arts, Qingfeng Sect lacks this kind of monk, and has a wide range of uses.

   I'm afraid that among casual cultivators, not many monks have even reached the most basic level of youth.

   And with a slightly higher cultivation base, it is easier to master all the arts of cultivating immortals, so as not to have to practice basic skills and rebuild the foundation after entering the sect.

   "I immediately increased my publicity efforts and visited several great immortal cultivating families so that they can send outstanding disciples to Wanxianjian."

   "No need, let's tell the outside world, this time Hejian County ranks first in recruiting new talents, and I personally award him a Foundation Establishment Pill."

  Bai Zichen waved his hand, and ordinary methods would mobilize hundreds of casual cultivators at most.

   If you want to do it, there will be big news.

   "There are no other requirements for receiving the Foundation Establishment Pill, and I personally judged the winner."

   "Disciple, convey your meaning immediately. I believe that the batch of qi refining monks with the best qualifications in Hejian will be moved."

   Li Guizhen's face showed joy, so that his work would be much easier to do.

  Not to mention Qi-refining casual cultivation, how many of those immortal cultivating families can take out a foundation-building pill without any effort.

   Only like the Mi family, it might be better to have fake alchemy monks, and the rest of the immortal cultivating families are also troubled by the foundation alchemy.

  In the past, it was either paying tribute to treasures or asking for alchemy from the ghost gate.

   Either go to Zengguang Immortal City to try it out, take the hope of the whole family to take a piece of Foundation Establishment Pill, and at the same time rent the Immortal City Cave Mansion to directly try to break through.

  The reward of a Foundation Establishment Pill is enough to make the major cultivating families put aside any scruples and send the most outstanding clansmen to fight.

  …

  Outside Wanxianjian, there is a lot of people coming and going, countless sword lights, flying magic weapons, and the sky is full of darkness.

  Looking at the number of monks, there must be close to 10,000 monks, forming several circles.

   There are too many people, because they have taken the position or have enemies in the past. After meeting, they were extremely jealous and there were many fights.

   Fortunately, there are quite a few disciples maintaining order in Qingfeng Sect, and in front of Wanxianjian, everyone is afraid, for fear of offending that Patriarch Bai.

  So after the Qingfeng sect disciples intervened, they were basically able to make peace.

   "Brother Mi, I heard from my father that you already have a quota of inner disciples. Why don't you just go to Wanxianjian to enjoy the blessings and come to queue up and suffer like us?"

  Under a cool umbrella magic device, the hot sun is cut off, and the shade is cool and refreshing.

   There are a number of young men and women gathered in a circle, dressed in luxurious clothes, and the magic weapon is shining.

  Looking at the temperament of the conversation and the magical weapons on their bodies, we can know that these people are not ordinary casual cultivators, but the children of a family of cultivators.

   "It's long gone, otherwise why should I sign up?"

  This young man with a long sword in fresh clothes and a hulking back, his tone was full of resentment.

"The clan originally selected me as an inner disciple, but the news that the top talent among the recruited disciples this time can be rewarded with a Foundation Establishment Pill, the clan elder will give this spot to my disciple immediately. Brother... now relying on myself to compete, I guess I can only pretend to be an outer disciple."

  Mi Wanzhong felt depressed and unhappy for many days.

"I heard that there is a big difference in the welfare benefits between the outer disciples of the Qingfeng Sect and the inner disciples, and I didn't expect that the Foundation Establishment Pill would fall on my head... But even the identity of the inner disciple is gone, I am afraid that I will be able to practice in the future. It is difficult to refine Qi and achieve great perfection."

  Mi Wanzhong's cousin, Mi Wanding, has dual spiritual root qualifications. He is currently 16 years old and has a six-level cultivation of Qi Refining. He is the best performer among the younger generation of the Bai family.

  The key point is that Mi Wanding is still a direct descendant of the patriarch, and was originally going to stay at home to focus on training and inherit the family business.

   But as soon as the reward for Jidan came out, the Mi family would rather have one outstanding junior in the family, and let Mi Wanding compete for it.

   "Here, Brother Mi has good qualifications, and he will definitely be able to win the inner disciple quota again."

  The honest boy who asked the question was a little embarrassed, and immediately changed the subject.

   "I heard that the eldest lady of the Ma family and several famous casual cultivators signed up. I don't know who can win the first place and be rewarded by the ancestor's foundation establishment pill."

   "It's either my cousin or the young lady of the Ma family. Although those casual cultivators have high levels of cultivation, they are too old... No matter how they are judged, they are not their turn. It is a waste to build foundation pills with them."

  Mi Wanzhong felt dissatisfied, but he was convinced of his cousin's talent.

  Beside the cool umbrella, a young man moved his ears slightly, passing through the group of monks non-stop.

  These monks have endless discussions about who will get the Jidan, and they basically go around with three or five names. Some people doubt whether there will be a secret operation, and finally the Jidan fell into the hands of the Qingfeng Sect.

   "Impossible, what a person that Bai Zhenren is, how could he preside over it himself because of a Foundation Establishment Pill to ruin his reputation."

"Yeah, I have a distant relative who fled to Heishan and joined Qingfeng Sect, and now it is prosperous...According to him, Qingfeng Sect is much fairer than other sects. Dare to cheat."

   "Brother Taoist, sit down and drink a cup of spiritual tea, and talk about it in detail."

  Although the Qingfeng Gate has occupied Xiahejian County for several years, it is still mysterious and full of unknowns to the low-level casual cultivators.

  Everyone was very curious about this, and there were a lot of them at once.

   "This fellow Taoist is not going to listen. Knowing something about the internal situation of Qingfengmen, maybe it will be helpful for the recruitment assessment?"

   Tie Changsheng asked curiously, seeing the young man who was walking alongside him for a while, but not pushing towards the crowd.

   "Didn't your Excellency also join in the fun?"

  The young man was empty-handed, free and easy, like a tourist going out for an outing, and he couldn't see the anxiety of other casual cultivators from him.

   "I have two sworn brothers who went up to inquire, and I stayed here to watch the location... I am in Xiatie Changsheng, I don't know what to call you?"

  Tie Changsheng and a few like-minded casual cultivators married Jinlan, and they were well-known among the low-level casual cultivators.

  This time, I was also moved by the reward of Jidan, so I came here to sign up for a try.

  The young man in front of him seemed to have only a mid-stage cultivation base, and was inconspicuous among the nearly 10,000 monks outside Wanxianjian, but Tie Changsheng felt that his temperament was extraordinary, so he took the initiative to make friends.

   "I am Su Li. I heard that the Qingfeng Gate is open, so I came here to see the excitement."

  The young man sat down on a big rock and said.

   "Brother Tiedao has such profound cultivation at such a young age, which is admirable. I believe he will be able to shine in the recruitment ceremony later."

   "I don't know how the Qingfeng Sect behaves. If the disciples of the aristocratic family are given priority like the Ghost Sect, and the benefits must be given to the deacon disciples to be assigned duties, I might as well be a casual cultivator."

  Tie Changsheng shook his head, with his eighth level of Qi Refining, he would definitely not be turned away.

  But if you want to enter the Qingfeng Sect, you are only the lowest-level disciple, and you are busy with the sect mission all day, so you might as well continue to do casual cultivation.

   "Don't worry, as long as you have the ability, you will definitely be able to make your mark in Qingfengmen."

  The free and easy young man looked at the uproar in front of him, got up and walked again: "I am here to wish brother Tie Dao can win a quota of inner disciples, and the road will be evergreen."

"Brother, what are you looking at? We have inquired clearly. In the Qingfeng Sect, only those who become inner disciples can be considered to be included in the sect wall. They can practice all kinds of skills and secret techniques in the Palace of Chuan Gong, and the treatment is different... If one can pass the trials and become a true disciple, the future is even more boundless, with the gift of a third-order spiritual land and a foundation-building spirit, foundation-building can be expected!"

  A quirky and lively girl rushed to tell the news she had heard, and there was a young man with a thick and steady face standing beside her.

   "It's nothing, second brother and younger sister, please talk to me about the promotion requirements among the Qingfeng sect's several disciples."

  Tie Changsheng withdrew his gaze from the young man who brought him a strange feeling, and said seriously.

  Choosing to join the Qingfeng Sect may be the second major turning point after he entered the world of cultivating immortals.
