When Shen Rui led everyone back to the assembly point, the sky was already slightly bright. Many warriors had completed their tasks and were standing or sitting boredly waiting for the remaining people. The middle-aged man looked around anxiously and raised his head. Seeing them, he seemed a little surprised, and then said in surprise: "Are you back?"
"Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life," Shen Rui handed the ring containing fifty demons to the middle-aged man and asked, "Why did you lie to us? There are obviously more than just mid-level demons and low-level demons in that fortress. So many?”
The middle-aged man was startled, then he laughed and said: "This...the data I mentioned was investigated in the past. Maybe the demons pay more attention to this fortress now and have sent more manpower."
He used his mental power to look inside through the seal, nodded with satisfaction, changed the subject and said, "Congratulations, from this moment on, you are already the official disciples of Yunyuan Pavilion."
After a while, it was getting brighter, and the experienced teams came back one after another. About half of them were missing. Shen Rui thought back to his group of people. He had not calculated it before the forest. At that time, he buried the pot in front of the forest. There are at least several thousand people who make food. When we arrived in the valley, there were probably only a few hundred people. There were only a dozen teams, or dozens of people, participating in this experience. Now only twenty or thirty people can return here. .And these are just the tip of the iceberg who participated in this disciple recruitment examination. It can be seen that the people in Yunyuan Pavilion have already died a hundred deaths before becoming disciples.
The middle-aged man had an expressionless face, as if he had expected this situation. He waved his hand and said, "Let's go up the mountain with me." After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and led everyone up the mountain. And those The dozen or so men in black who suddenly appeared disappeared. After a few hours, everyone finally arrived at the top of the mountains. A magnificent crystal pillar that penetrated directly into the clouds came into view. There were three words written on it with flying dragons and phoenixes. There are big purple characters: Yunyuan Pavilion. Each big character is majestic and several feet long and wide.
When everyone looked forward, behind the stone pillars were buildings dozens of feet high. Shen Rui was stunned. The Yunyuan Pavilion in front of him was not only majestic in architecture, but also covered an extremely large area. Its scale was not even within a Nantong county. It is simply an independent city. And this city is much more spectacular than a city divided between rich and poor. It shines brightly against the backdrop of mountains.
Shen Rui looked at these magical buildings that were almost integrated with the mountains, and couldn't help but sigh at the generosity of the craftsmen who built Yunyuan Pavilion. It can be described as four masters - uncanny workmanship.
"So beautiful." Lin Ran couldn't help shouting. Although the others did not shout out, they secretly praised: "You deserve to be one of the four major forces of the Donghua Empire." They complained about the hard work and life and death tests along the way. Everything turned into joy.
"Let's go." After the middle-aged man gave everyone a little taste of the elegance of Yunyuan Pavilion, he took the lead and led everyone into the gate of Yunyuan Pavilion.
After entering Yunyuan Pavilion, the middle-aged people took everyone to a huge square. In the square, there were already hundreds of young people in their twenties standing neatly, with a platform in front of them. Above, standing condescendingly, were several old men dressed in rich attire. The most eye-catching among them was a white-haired old man standing at the front. His bright golden purple robe was particularly eye-catching, showing his different status from the others. The middle-aged man stepped forward, bowed respectfully to the white-haired old man and the other elders, and said, "I'm here to see some elders."
The white-haired old man nodded slightly, but the others returned the greeting: "Thank you, elder, for your hard work."
After Shen Rui observed it, he immediately saw that among these people, the white-haired old man had the highest status, and the other old men seemed to have the same status as middle-aged people.
Elder Xie, a middle-aged man, asked the people who came in to line up, and stood in a row with other seniors. Seeing everyone lining up, the white-haired old man cleared his throat and said: "Everyone, you have worked hard all the way. Congratulations on passing Passed the disciple assessment and became a true disciple of the outer pavilion of Yunyuan Pavilion. My name is Wei Hu, and I am the great elder of the outer pavilion. On behalf of everyone in the outer pavilion, I welcome you..."
What followed was a bunch of stinky and long remarks, but Shen Rui didn't listen at all. He didn't know the distribution of power in Yunyuan Pavilion, so he couldn't help but curiously asked a member of the team: "What is the outer pavilion?"
"Oh, the disciples of Yunyuan Pavilion are divided into the outer pavilion, the cabinet and the main pavilion disciples. The outer pavilion means those who have just started, and the new disciples are all the outer pavilion disciples." The companion replied.
Shen Rui frowned. The purpose of his coming here was to explore his life experience, and this life experience was probably related to the master of the Yunyuan Pavilion. If he was just a disciple of the outer pavilion and could not even see the master of the pavilion, this matter would be terrible. How to check?
After Wei Hu finished speaking, he asked someone to give everyone a few sets of blue clothes, and said: "These are the uniform uniforms for the outer cabinet disciples assigned to you. From now on, you will all wear them at all times."
Finally, he pointed at the middle-aged man, Elder Xie, and said to the disciples: "From now on, your daily life, cultivation and other matters will all be managed by Elder Xie. Of course, if you have any problems, you can also report them to Elder Xie."
After saying that, he left with several elders behind him.
Elder Xie led the new disciples to a few rows of dilapidated houses in a remote area and said to everyone: "You are also tired. I will give you a day off today to tidy up your houses. Starting tomorrow, you will be with other foreigners. Let the disciples practice together."
He said it was a day, but in fact it was already noon and there was only more than half a day left.
Everyone looked at these rows of abandoned houses and couldn't imagine that the magnificent Yunyuan Pavilion could have such a shabby slum.
"Elder Xie," a disciple said timidly, "there are tall buildings everywhere in the pavilion, why is the house we live in like this?"
Elder Xie snorted and said coldly: "You can live in a new house if you want. Give me some credit. If you can stand out in the cabinet disciple election in three years' time, you will have a new house to live in."
This disciple wanted to say something else, but Elder Xie had already walked away. Seeing that his face was not very good, everyone did not dare to ask any more questions, and each went to choose his own room.
Elder Xie walked a few steps and suddenly heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Shen Rui.
"If you don't clean up the house, why are you following me?" For some reason, when Elder Xie saw Shen Rui, his expression was not as cold as he had been towards other disciples just now.
"Hehe..." Shen Rui smiled and said, "Elder Xie, I want to ask something."
"Oh," Elder Xie stopped and said, "If you have any questions, just ask."
"Will our pavilion master come to see our outer pavilion disciples often?" Shen Rui asked, with a trace of luck in his heart.
