Chapter 10: The First Trial

Time flies by, and soon it's the day for the Tian Yuan Palace to recruit new disciples.

As one of the top sects in the North Xuan domain, the conditions for recruiting new disciples at the Tian Yuan Palace are very strict.

Basically, only a few exceptionally talented individuals from each city can get the chance to participate in the examination at the Tian Yuan Palace.

Therefore, in order to become a disciple of the Tian Yuan Palace, one needs to go through rigorous selection.

Firstly, the age must not exceed 18, and secondly, the cultivation level must not be below the first realm's ninth layer.

Just these two points alone have blocked most people.

Because in the entire Xuan Yang City, only a few dozen people could reach the ninth layer of the first realm before they turned 18.

Today, Xuan Yang City is bustling with people, and the atmosphere is lively, as it is the day when the Tian Yuan Palace is recruiting new disciples in the city.

At this moment, a huge stage has been set up in the central square of the city.

This stage is the examination stage for the new disciples of the Tian Yuan Palace today.

The central square is now packed with people, and many talented youngsters from other cities have also arrived in Xuan Yang City.

The four great families of Xuan Yang City are very "Morning, today is the day that Tianyuan Palace recruits new disciples. It's up to you, Yang family," Yang Daolin said.

"Father, you can rest assured. There must be a place for me in the new disciples of Tianyuan Palace," Yang Morning's eyes were filled with determination.

After crossing over, Yang Morning's biggest dream was to pursue immortality, and Tianyuan Palace would be the first stepping stone for his rise.

At the same time, from the direction of the Lin and Xiao families, there were two venomous glances directed at Yang Morning.

These two venomous glances were from Lin Northyang of the Lin family and Xiao Jijie of the Xiao family.

Standing beside them were two exceptionally well-mannered young men.

Yang Morning didn't care about the hostility of these people and didn't think much of it. At present, in terms of actual combat ability, these people, even if they were combined, would not be his match.

If these people were not sensible, Yang Morning wouldn't mind crippling them.

At this moment, a robust and sharp-eyed middle-aged man walked onto the stage.

This man was the Lord of Xuanyang City, Han Tianling. His appearance immediately made the scene quiet down.

"Everyone, I am Han Tianling, the host of Tianyuan Palace's recruitment of new disciples. Now, let's give a warm round of applause to the genius messengers of Tianyuan Palace, Ling Yancloud Fairy and Dongfang Jie Prince," Han Tianling led the applause. Suddenly, there was a thunderous applause in the arena.

At the moment the applause rang out, a beautiful figure descended on the VIP section next to the ring.

It was a girl who seemed to have stepped out of a fairyland.

She was wearing a luxurious and elegant white silk dress, and although she had a thin layer of snow gauze on her face, her cold and noble air was still unmistakable. Her mesmerizing eyes were so captivating that one glance was enough to make one fall deeply in love with her.

This girl was the talented envoy of the Tianyuan Palace, Lingyan Yun.

At the same time, another terrifying figure appeared on the scene. It was a handsome man with an upright posture, sharp eyes, and an extraordinary bearing.

This was the other talented envoy of the Tianyuan Palace, Dongfang Jie.

Although Yin Chenmiao could only see him from a distance, he could feel that the man's strength was immeasurable, far beyond the city lord of the Xiangyang City's four great families.

What shocked Yin Chenmiao was that the two of them looked about his age, but their strength was much more terrifying than the Xiangyang City Lord.

Only to see Dongfang Jie's piercing gaze sweep the area, and then he pulled out a terrifying wooden puppet from his storage ring.

"This is our Tianyuan Palace's examination puppet. If you can defeat it, you will have passed the first round. Additionally, participants must be under the age of 18. Those who violate this rule will bear the consequences." Eastern Jie's voice was unusually cold.

Hearing Eastern Jie's words, the young men who were originally going to participate in the examination drew in a breath of cold air.

The main reason was the aura of the examination puppet on his body, which was at the peak of the first realm's ninth layer. A normal first realm's ninth layer cultivator could not defeat it.

In the entire Cold Yang City, only a few people could reach the second realm before the age of 18.

"Now, the challenge begins."

At this time, Han Tianling walked out and began to host the first round of the challenge.

As the challenge began, many ninth-layer cultivators of the first realm walked onto the stage.

"Bang!"

"Ah ah ah..."

In less than one round, a ninth-layer cultivator of the first realm was knocked flying by the puppet and was seriously injured.

"Next!" Han Tianling said expressionlessly.

Another half an hour passed, to everyone's surprise, no one was able to succeed in the challenge.

"Lin Sister, the people of Cold Yang City have such poor talent. We should have not come here," Eastern Jie said.

"Since we have come, let's give them a chance," Lin Yanqing's voice was calm and pleasant.

At this moment, Han Ruoxue walked onto the stage.

She had a slim and graceful figure, her breathing was steady, and she walked straight towards the examination puppet.

When facing the puppet's attack, she also appeared to be in complete control. It was obvious that Han Ruoxue had broken through to the second realm, and soon the test puppet was successfully pushed back by her.

At this point, Han Ruoxue had become the first contestant to pass the first round in Xuan Yang City.

Then Xiao Jijun from the Xiao family stepped onto the stage.

This man was one of the four most talented young people in Xuan Yang City, and also the older brother of Xiao Jijie.

As expected, Xiao Jijun also successfully advanced to the second round.

By this time, not many people were participating in the test anymore, as most of the young people were unable to defeat the test puppet.

Soon, Lin Beiyang and Lin Beichen from the Lin family also managed to defeat the test puppet.

As one of the four major families in Xuan Yang City, the younger generation of the Lin family was clearly stronger than the others.

Just as the first round was coming to an end, Yang Simiao stepped onto the stage.

With his current strength, defeating a first-stage peak test puppet would basically only require one finger.

However, in order to conserve his strength, Yang Simiao also used two rounds before defeating the test puppet.

When Yang Simiao successfully passed the test, the people of the Yang family all revealed excited smiles.

However, Xuan Tianling's expression at this moment was somewhat embarrassed. If he had known that Yang Simiao had such strength, he would not have listened to his daughter's request to call off the engagement. "Congratulations to the five of you for advancing to the second round. The next round is the ranking battle. The top two players will be given the opportunity to take the examination at the Tianyuan Palace."

Then, Dongfang Jie announced the rules for the second round.

The rule for the second round is the ranking battle. Each person must fight against the other four people. The top two players will be given the opportunity to take the examination at the Tianyuan Palace.

According to the drawing order, Yang Chenyis drew the number one, Xiao Jijun the number two, Lin Beichen the number three, Lin Beiyang the number four, and Han Ruoxue drew the number five.

According to the rules of the competition, Yang Chenyis's first opponent was Xiao Jijun from the Xiao family.
