Chapter 34: Pulse Selection
It's hard to catch up with the years, and the white horse will pass by.
After Zhang Zheng said goodbye to the two little girls, he followed the team into the inner gate.
There are thirty-one people in total, twenty-five of them are those who are at the top of the outer sect test, and the other six are those personally selected by the elders or recommended by the inner sect disciples.
This is the second time Zhang Zheng has stepped into the Zangdao Mountain Assembly Hall.
Zangdao Mountain is still vast with misty waves, green peaks and green waves. In this fairyland, the meeting hall on the top of the mountain becomes more and more clear and transparent, with slender clouds and flat sea, just like the former residence of the immortals.
It was the first time for all the outer disciples to come here, and they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when facing the dozen or so imposing elders in the meeting hall.
As usual, the headmaster kindly congratulated the outer sect disciples for their promotion to the inner sect and expressed high hopes for them.
After that, the elders selected their disciples.
"Who is Tan Ying?"
Hua Zhengnan asked loudly.
Zhang Zheng followed her eyes and looked at Tan Ying in front of her. She was famous in this outer sect test. She won every competition easily and effortlessly.
Tan Yingpingping stood up and bowed politely and said: "Disciple Tan Ying, I have met the elder."
He is quite polite.
Hua Zhengnan nodded silently in his heart and said in a softer tone: "Are you willing to join my Qinglin lineage and become my direct disciple of Hua Zhengnan?"
As soon as these words came out, all the outer disciples looked at Tan Ying with envy. It is a great honor to be a direct disciple!
However, Tan Ying's expression did not change, and she performed the apprenticeship ceremony generously and whispered softly, "Disciple Tan Ying pays homage to the master."
Hua Zhengnan was in a good mood after receiving a proud disciple. He praised her a few words and called her directly behind him.
I'm sure the reward will be generous when I return to Qinglin Peak.
After that, no elder opened his mouth to accept disciples.
Although the remaining disciples can't help but feel regretful, they also feel that it is normal. It is not easy to enter the inner sect, so why bother to think more.
The leader stroked Bai Hu, "There are nine meridians in the inner sect, which are Lingjian, Tiance, Lotus, Qinglin, Qihuo, Danxia, Xingfu, Yunfeng, and Shuanglian. Among them, Tiance, Danxia,
The four branches of weapon fire and walking talisman are good at the four skills, and they are a sect that cultivates the four skills. You can choose a branch to join."
Zhang Zheng doesn't have a preference for any lineage, but the Four Skills School will definitely not choose it.
There are five remaining meridians, and after removing Qinglin added by Tan Ying, just choose any one to add.
Choosing as she pleased, Zhang Zheng engraved the word "Fahua" on the token in her hand. From then on, she became a disciple of the inner sect of the Lotus.
All disciples have chosen a faction to join, and the ceremony of entering the inner sect is over.
As the disciples were about to leave the meeting hall, a message sounded, and the leader called her to stay for now.
Zhang Zheng fell half a step behind, waited until the disciples disappeared, and then returned to the meeting hall.
The headmaster and elders are all still there, including Tan Ying, who has just become a direct disciple.
In addition, there was a woman with extraordinary beauty, standing behind an elder. The two of them were chatting and laughing from time to time, with cheerful expressions.
"Disciple Zhang Zheng, I wonder why the master is looking for a disciple?"
The headmaster didn't answer and looked her up and down. Zhang Zheng also looked at the strange woman behind the elder calmly.
She gives people an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if she has seen her somewhere.
The woman raised her eyes and met Zhang Zheng's gaze, her eyebrows softened and she smiled slightly.
Zhang Zheng quickly looked away, feeling a little flustered by her smile, but she finally understood why she felt familiar?
Her features and eyes are very similar to those of Senior Brother Lin Yihan, but her overall temperament is more like awe-inspiring frost, with soft skin like snow, ice-cold muscles and jade bones, which is exactly what the poem says, "Autumn water is the divine jade and the bones are."
When her expression is cold, she is like a goddess from the Nine Heavens. You can look at her from a distance but not up close. If she curls her eyebrows and smiles, she is as warm as the ice and snow melting, the breeze and the bright moon.
She is worthy of being hailed as a goddess by all the Xuanmen disciples - Lin Xiaoxiao.
The headmaster put on an amiable demeanor and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, it won't be a bad thing to call you here."
Seeing that his senior brother still seemed to be trying to make something mysterious and appetizing, and then thinking about his good disciple's instructions, Liu Ruqing coughed lightly.
"Senior Brother, please stop showing off. You're scaring the little kid."
The head's expression did not change, and he said calmly: "Whatever Junior Sister Liu said, senior brother is just thinking about how to say it."
"Ahem." He turned to Zhang Zheng and spoke slowly: "You gave the summoning fire seal to the sect. It is indeed a great achievement. The sect cannot take advantage of the disciples in vain."
"I think you have a good character and good character, and you are promoted to the inner sect with the five spiritual roots. It is really rare. The sect has decided to allow you to enter the Treasure Pavilion and choose a treasure by yourself."
Zhang Zheng had never heard of the existence of Zhenqi Pavilion, but judging from the envy expressed by the elders here from time to time, he must be an excellent treasure.
He happily agreed, "Disciple Zhang Zheng thanks the sect for the reward."
"It's just that," the leader narrowed his eyes slightly, letting out a trace of light, "I have one more thing to ask you to stay."
After saying this, the leader took out a clear and extraordinary jade box. When he opened the jade box, a round ball lay quietly inside, dazzling in fiery red and flowing in flames.
A pure vitality slowly rippled through the hall.
Everyone present was attracted by it, their whole bodies were surrounded by vitality, and their faces looked relaxed.
Especially Tan Ying, who was silent, took a deep breath calmly at this moment, looking obsessed with yearning.
Zhang Zheng naturally failed to notice this abnormality. All she could see was the red fruit the size of a fingernail next to the summoning fire seal.
Why is it here!
In the town of Zhangshui Prefecture, Zhang Zheng only found beads around her when she woke up. She thought that the red fruit she brought from Dongtianjushun had been swallowed up by the black smoke like other spiritual things.
Why is it lying next to the beads in good condition at this moment?
She was sure that she would never be in a trance and hand the red fruit to Lin Yihan, so there was only one possibility.
Zhang Zheng's eyes with deep resentment quietly fell on the Fire Summoning Seal. The resentment was so deep that if the Fire Summoning Seal had a spirit, he would be frightened.
The leader's words later clearly confirmed her suspicion.
He twisted a small red fruit and said, "The Fire Summoning Seal suddenly spat out this thing. It looks like a piece of fruit. There is no record in the classics."
He moved his gaze away from Zhang Zheng and walked around the hall, "This time I also want you all to take a look and see if you can recognize what this is?"
Which of the elders here is not a person who has traveled far and wide and has experienced a wide range of things? Looking through his memory at this time, he looked at each other and found that he had never seen anything like it, not even heard of it.
An elder guessed: "This fruit doesn't look spiritual, could it be just an ordinary wild fruit?"
Duan Wuwei shook his head, "It can be spit out by the summoning fire seal, so it must not be an ordinary thing."
Zhang Zheng felt heartbroken. Although the cheap master seemed unreliable, the Zhu Guo was a real good thing.
If her qualifications of five spiritual roots can rival those of two spiritual roots, wouldn't it be a heavenly and earthly treasure that cleanses the meridians and cuts the marrow?
But at this time, she could only pretend to be confused while still pretending to understand, pretending that it had been eaten up by the black smoke.
Meeting the leader's questioning gaze, Zhang Zheng looked confused and said, "Return to the leader, I don't know what this is."
Also, although the Fire Summoning Seal was discovered by this disciple, she was only protected by the Fire Summoning Seal by chance. How could she know the things in the Fire Summoning Seal?
Not getting the answer he wanted, the leader was inevitably disappointed, but he quickly calmed down.
In this case, let's continue to summon the fire seal with it first and let it go.
"Uncle Master, can you allow me to take a closer look at this fruit?"
Lin Xiaoxiao asked respectfully.
