The elder continued shouting, “Those heading to the southeastern border of the Central Divine Continent to slay demons and eliminate evil, come wait on the right side.”
“Cultivation must be no lower than Foundation Establishment Late Stage.”
This time, only a few dozen disciples were selected, but all had solid cultivation—each one at the Jindan Realm.
As the elder’s continuous calls echoed, one by one, disciples began to move, each selecting their destination.
The required cultivation for the training grounds kept increasing until the elder shouted, “Minimum requirement: Nascent Soul Early Stage.”
Gantang’s gaze fixed on her senior brother’s bright eyes, full of silent grievance…
Her true cultivation was Nascent Soul Early Stage.
“Senior Brother, where exactly are you going?”
Lu Qiancha still smiled without saying a word.
Soon, only fifteen people remained unmoved in the crowd, and there were only two unannounced training locations left.
These fifteen, apart from the brother and sister pair in the corner, were all Xian Seeds from various peaks—the key cultivation candidates of this generation.
The elder glanced briefly at Gantang, then continued shouting, “Those heading to Donghai Linyuan Island for training, enter the hall and wait. Minimum cultivation required: Nascent Soul Late Stage.”
Of the remaining fifteen, nine simultaneously set off. Their auras released were all uniform—Nascent Soul Early Stage.
Praise came from around, and these nine disciples quickly flew into the hall.
At this moment, only six remained still unmoving, and all eyes swiftly converged on a young girl clad in a bright red fairy dress, carrying a broken sword on her back.
The girl stood with her eyes closed, as if four large characters floated around her: “Keep a lifetime away.”
She was one of the most renowned current disciples of the Tianyuan Sect, not only stunningly beautiful but with cultivation talent that was truly extraordinary.
The aura she revealed now was already at Divine Transformation Peak.
Having joined only forty years ago, such aptitude had earned her the Tianyuan Sect’s great favor, and she had early on been accepted into the main branch of Zaohua Peak.
“Shangguan Yunzhu is also going to Bei Juluzhou? Not bad at all.”
Lu Qiancha in the corner revealed a faint smile. Traveling with such a highly regarded figure would naturally place him in a more visible position.
Beside him, Gantang sensed a strange feeling. Her gaze flickered back and forth between her senior brother’s smile and Shangguan Yunzhu……
Something’s off! There’s definitely something going on!
Could it be…… her home was being invaded?
Gantang silently clenched her fists, filled with jealousy.
“Senior Sister Yun Zhu is also going to Bei Juluzhou? Looks like Qingfeng Senior Brother is going there too.”
“That’s only natural. Haven’t you noticed Qingfeng Senior Brother hasn’t moved all this time? He’s clearly waiting for Senior Sister Yun Zhu to decide.”
“Be careful with your words and thoughts—do not offend these two cultivation prodigies of Zaohua Peak.”
In the air, the elder looked at the brother and sister pair, Lu Qiancha and Gantang, and shook his head slightly before continuing to shout, “Those heading to the Juezhang Treasure Forest in southwestern Bei Juluzhou, enter the hall and wait.”
“This place is extremely dangerous and often causes injuries among disciples. Minimum cultivation required: Nascent Soul Peak Stage.”
Having finished speaking, the woman in the bright red dress opened her clear phoenix-like eyes. Her skirt swayed gently in the breeze like a fiery red lotus, drawing countless gazes as she floated into the hall.
Right behind her came a gentle and refined young man, his aura also at Divine Transformation Peak.
His eyes never left the bright red figure—this was naturally the “Qingfeng Senior Brother.”
Lu Qiancha stepped forward as well. With Qingfeng and Shangguan Yunzhu attracting attention, he was practically invisible, moving comfortably without worry.
Yet after just a few steps, he shivered inexplicably. A pair of eyes full of grievance seemed to shadow him like a ghost……
“Senior Brother, why are you suddenly going to Bei Juluzhou?”
Lu Qiancha felt the chill from behind, stopped in his tracks, and turned his head to reply in a low voice, “To gather herbs.”
“Senior Brother? Don’t you have enough herbs at home? You……”
“Tianquanfeng’s Gantang.”
A shout came from the air, interrupting their conversation: “Are you participating in this outing for training?”
“Participating.”
Gantang answered. Feeling the surrounding gazes, her delicate face blushed slightly.
She hurriedly continued, “Thank you, elder, for your concern. My cultivation is still shallow, so I hesitated earlier, but I have now decided to follow the senior brothers and sisters to the Donghai seaside.”
The elder nodded with a few kind smiles, “Return quickly to formation. Do not delay the time.”
“Yes.”
Gantang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Turning to find her senior brother again, she found that he was nowhere in sight.
“Really, why must he go to such a dangerous place……”
She pursed her lips, muttering softly, “Not even a word of caution…… Hmph, I’ll be careful myself, stupid senior brother.”
Inside the Wanxiang Hall, a dozen or so pairs of eyes rested on Lu Qiancha, most filled with doubt, not knowing who he was.
Lu Qiancha silently released his aura—Nascent Soul Peak Stage—barely passing the line, but above average among current disciples.
“Meets the standards, return quickly to formation.”
The elder glanced at Lu Qiancha, then quickly shifted his gaze elsewhere.
