Chapter Thirty-Nine Standing Circle (Stage Summary)
At first, only about five or five people entered the two circles, but as some people walked from the blue circle to the red circle, the number of people in the blue circle began to decrease rapidly.
After the tea time, tens of thousands of people were already standing in the circle.
Compared with the crowd of people in the red circle, the fat man was the only one in the blue circle, which looked extremely bleak.
The fat man standing in the blue circle must have been distracted. At this moment, he realized that he seemed to have made the wrong choice. He stood out from the crowd and immediately ran towards the red circle in a hurry.
"Okay, don't move any more."
When these words came out of the mouth of the temple owner, the fat man was so frightened that he started crying, thinking that he was about to receive a terrible punishment.
"Look at you like this. I told you it's just a game. Are you afraid of being like this?"
As the viewer spoke, he changed the topic and said, "But what happens next is no longer a child's play."
"I will give you one more time to burn incense. When the time is up, those who stay in the red circle must swear an oath of heaven. In addition to relying on yourself and your teammates for this trial, you will not seek help from others."
As soon as these words came out, the people at the scene immediately lost their composure.
This heavenly oath is no ordinary oath, but an extremely binding oath.
The so-called cultivation of Tao means not only improving one's cultivation level, but also consolidating one's Tao mind.
And starting from the foundation building stage, each time you advance to a greater realm, you need to pass the test of heart tribulation.
If you make an oath of heaven and then violate it, your Taoist heart will definitely be unstable.
Although this will not affect the current level of cultivation, if it is lower than the Foundation Establishment stage, you will be able to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage throughout your life. If it is higher than the Foundation Establishment stage, your cultivation will stop at the current level.
However, there are exceptions, and that is the evil cultivators who practice by devouring other people's flesh, flesh, or souls.
Such evil cultivators only cultivate themselves and ignore the cause and effect of heaven, so they will naturally have no mental calamity when they advance.
However, such evil practices are not tolerated by all sects, and evil cultivators are also the existence that everyone calls for beating.
Therefore, some disciples who were greedy for face but were actually planning to find help secretly left the red circle one after another.
Lin Fan thought for a moment and then followed a group of people into the blue circle.
Naturally, he didn't intend to find anyone for help, but he always did things as he pleased and was too lazy to make the oath of heaven.
If you have to rely on oaths to restrain yourself in this kind of thing of tempering yourself, then you are really confused.
Soon, a stick of incense passed and everyone made their decision again.
There were a large group of people standing in each of the two circles. At first glance, the number of people on both sides was almost the same!
"How is it possible? Most of the people standing in the red circle are disciples of aristocratic families!" one person said in shock.
You should know that among the entry-level disciples, although there are fewer casual cultivators from humble families than disciples from aristocratic families, they still account for at least 30%.
If everyone's choices are similar, then there shouldn't be so few casual cultivators from poor families in the red circle.
At this moment, another person said: "That's not all. I just counted them carefully. The disciples of the aristocratic families in the red circle are seven times more than the casual cultivators like us!"
As soon as these words came out, all the casual cultivators from humble families on the side felt ashamed.
In their imagination, most of the disciples from those aristocratic families should be greedy for life and afraid of death, and they would definitely find someone to help them pass the trial.
In this case, there should be only a very small number of disciples from aristocratic families standing in the red circle.
But reality slapped them hard in the face. Although they still didn't want to accept it in their hearts, the facts were in front of them and they couldn't help but not believe it.
Lin Fan believes that this situation should be the result of the long-term influence of the sect's cultural heritage.
The Creed of the Blood Demon Sect is that the weak eat the strong, and emphasizes tempering oneself.
Under the dominance of this kind of thinking, aristocratic families that have been able to integrate into the sect for a long time must have been infected with this kind of thinking to some extent.
Then one can imagine the character of a disciple who comes from such a noble family.
He also understood the purpose of the temple master's move, which was to teach a lesson to those casual cultivators from poor families who did not have enough knowledge.
In terms of financial background, you are not as good as the disciples of the aristocratic family; if you even have the courage to fight, you are not as good as the disciples of the aristocratic family. Then how can you compete with the other party in the future? What's the right path?
It’s just unclear how many people at the scene could appreciate the painstaking efforts of the viewer.
…
Later, under the leadership of Deputy Temple Master Jiang, thousands of disciples standing in the red circle took the Heavenly Pledge together.
The voice was majestic and passionate. Except for a few people, the disciples in the blue circle lowered their heads when they heard it, looking extremely ashamed.
Lin Fan was one of those few people. Compared with the people around him who lowered their heads, he held his chest out as usual and had a calm expression on his face.
Deputy Guanzhu Jiang glanced at Lin Fan in the blue circle, and couldn't help but feel a little different in his heart.
"What is this kid doing? Is it possible that he is planning to find help?"
The reason why he didn't call for help for his daughter from outside like others was because of the superficial notarization!
After all, he is the deputy temple leader. If he takes the lead in finding someone from outside, wouldn't he lose his own face?
But now was not the time to talk about this. He decided to talk to Lin Fan privately later. He couldn't let this kid mess around!
After the people in the red circle finished swearing, the host began his final speech.
"No matter whether you choose to stand in the red circle or the blue circle today, I hope you all understand that this trial for entry-level disciples is just the beginning."
"If you are successful in your cultivation, there will be trials for inner disciples and other trials waiting for you in the future."
"Compared with those trials that follow, this trial for beginner disciples is just a joke. The cruelty of the trial is not even one-tenth or even one percent of the trials that follow!"
"And for the subsequent trials, we won't be able to hire help."
"So when you go back, think carefully about how you should face this trial as an entry-level disciple!"
"As for the specific tasks of this trial, they will be delivered to everyone when they set off."
"Okay, that's it for today's speech."
After the spectator finished speaking, he fled the martial arts arena together with Dun Guang.
Seeing this, all the disciples on the field immediately dispersed.
Lin Fan followed the flow of people, and after taking only a few steps, he was blocked by Deputy Temple Master Jiang who suddenly appeared.
"Come to my mansion later. I have some things to give you." After giving the instructions, Deputy Temple Master Jiang stepped on his sword and left.
Lin Fan did not dare to neglect, and when he came to a more open place, he summoned Fu He and went straight to Deputy Guanzhu Jiang's residence.
An hour later.
Lin Fan's face looked quite ugly when he came out of Deputy Guanzhu Jiang's residence.
Regarding this trial, Deputy Temple Master Jiang made two requests to him.
The first requirement is that you are not allowed to find foreign aid yourself.
He was naturally happy to accept this, after all, he had no intention of looking for foreign aid.
But the second requirement is a bit excessive.
He actually asked himself to ensure Jiang Yue's safety no matter what. If anything happened to Jiang Yue, Lin Fan would not have to return to Qingzhu Temple.
Is this a threat, or a naked threat!
But given the current situation, he couldn't help but refuse to agree.
In this way, his goal changed from passing the trial by himself to passing the trial with Jiang Yue.
The difficulty of this task has not only increased several times!
As for the reward after completing the two requirements, Deputy Guanzhu Jiang promised that he could make a request. As long as it was not too excessive and within his ability, he would definitely help him fulfill it.
…
In the blink of an eye, it was noon three days later.
Lin Fan finished his daily morning classes and slowly stood up.
"Sixth level of Qi refining!"
Looking at the eighteen mana threads in his body, he showed a happy smile.
During this period of time, he had used almost all the spiritual stones he earned from selling talismans to purchase elixirs to improve his cultivation. Therefore, he was not surprised that he could advance to the sixth level of Qi Refining so quickly.
Today was the day to gather for the entry trial. He did not dare to delay and quickly rushed to the martial arts field. This chapter has been completed!
