38 First round of recruitment!

As the cultivators were looking towards the celestial mountain up above they saw 4 people wearing silhouettes fly down towards them and they were shocked because that means that there are a total of 4 nascent soul realm cultivators in this sect! Even the spies sent out by various powers were shocked because all 4 of them were in very strong!

"I thank everyone for attending the recruitment of disciples for our Supreme Martial sect! And as the sect master I welcome all of you to attend our disciple recruitment! Those who don't want to join and just want to make trouble for us, I'll ask kondly of you to leave. I'll be nice to all of you this one time and give you a chance to retreat now. If not die!" Xiao long said while spreading out his aura and looking towards the cultivators.

All of the cultivators were shocked because now Xiao long's aura was stronger than before! If he wanted he can easily make them kneel before him.

"Our recruitment will be testing your potential for the martial way, for forging, pill concoction, etc. so if you failed in one of the recruitment you can still try other recruitment exams." Xiao long said with a smile while everyone also smiled because some of them weren't that confident in their potential in the martial way and some have potential in other forms of martial path for example pill concoction and forging so they we're relieved to hear that if they fail the martial path they can still have a chance to join the Supreme martial sect because some cultivators are looking for ways to turn their life upside down and rise from their hardships. And that's what Xiao long gave them now! Hope! Xiao long wanted the supreme martial sect to be a way of hope for the people! The cultivators dont know that after all of the tests are over those who failed will be given another chance to be helper disciples and they will still be given chance in the future to move up to outer disciples or even inner disciples! But the test for them will be harder because they will be in an illusion.

"Now then I ask everyone to please line up because we will be testing your qualifications to join our sect." Xiao long said while taking out the rating machine.

All of the cultivators followed Xiao long's order not one of them disobeyed because they we're to afraid to even talk or murmur because of Xiao long's aura. Xiao long then began to explain the rules of the recruitment.

"There are only two rounds for this test the first will be testing your potential for the martial way. In this round you have to score a total of 60 points to move on to the next round. The test will be easy and you only have to step inside this thing and your rating will be shown above your head so that everybody can see it. The second round is the ranking tournament. You will fight against one another in a stage and that will determine your ranking in the outer stage. The top 10 will be recieving rewards so do your best." Xiao long said with a smile.

Xiao long then proceeded to put the machine in the ground and the first cultivator was finally tested.

"Senior my name is Cao Tian!" The young man in the body tempering stage 6th layer said. And Xiao long nodded and started up the machine. A number then appeared at the top of Cao tian's name.

"53"

Everyone was shocked! Cao tian was the young master of the Cao family a well known family in their kingdom but it wasn't even enough to be an outer disciple of the supreme martial sect! On other major sect he can be an inner disciple! My god!

The test went on and even after a dozen cultivators were tested there still wasn't any one who passed the test! Finally when the 34th cultivator was tested he was the first one to pass!

"72"

"I... I passed?" A muscular man said still in doubt." I-I passed! Father I passed!! Hahahha!!" The muscular man said and then Xiao long walked towards him.

The muscular man was a 5th layer body tempering realm and he looks like a 16 year old boy. Xiao long then took a look at his status

[Tian Mu 16 years old- 5th layer body tempering realm]

[Affinity-Earth(High grade)]

[Innate talent- 17]

[Comprehension- 17]

[Will-21]

[Luck-17]

Although Tian Mu's rating was far below of the core disciples rating he still had a total rating of 72! With his rating he can easily be an inner disciple but Xiao long decided to first check his background and personality Xiao long then said to him." Congratulations Tian Mu for being the first outer disciple of my supreme martial sect! Here's a little welcome gift from me." Xiao long then tossed a small white ball towards Tian Mu and Xiao long then shouted to the crowd." I know that all of the cultivators who are able to join my sect now are all geniuses. They only didn't develop very well for some reasons so now to all of the cultivators who are able to pass the 1st round of the test will be given a low grade spirit stone."

Everyone was shocked! They all looked at the white ball Tian Mu is holding right now and all of them gulped a mouthful of saliva. A low grade spirit stone! One low grade spirit stone is priced at 10,000 gold coins! But you cant just simply buy a low grade spirit stone! Most cultivators will choose to use it to advance in cultivation rather than sell it for gold coins!

Tian Mu's Hand trembled. A low grade spirit stone! He never held anything this precious in his entire life!" Ma-master! Thank you! As long as I Tian Mu am Alive I wont ever betray the Supreme martial sect!" Tian Mu said while tears can be seen in his eyes!

"Father! Don't worry you dont have to work day and night anymore just to pay those scumbags of the Qin family!" He said to himself while following behind Xiao long and went to the place designated for the cultivators who passed the 1st round. He then sat cross legged and started to cultivate using the low grade spirit stone.

After that the test for the 1st round continued once again and after half a day the 1st round finale ended! Out of the 5,000 cultivators only 100 cultivators managed to pass the selection! And only a few of them were notable disciples like Tian Mu! And most of the disciples only had a rating of 60-65 and only a dozen were 66-69.

Xiao long then said to the 100 people." Congratulations to all of my new outer sect disciples! I know that all of you are now itching to cultivate using your low grade spirit stones so the tournament round will be tomorrow. Please follow your senior brother Zhao because he will lead you to your new courtyards." Zhao Fu then went down from the celestial mountain and he used his spatial steps to descend down slowly.

Zhao Fu already comprehended his spatial steps to a new level and he can now use it to step on space and look like he was stepping on something while descending down from the celestial mountain. Everyone was shocked because Zhao Fu looks like a 14 year old kid but he was already in the 4th layer foundation building realm and the martial technique that he used looks too profound to be able to walk on air! They taught to themselves.

"Hello seniors! I am Zhao Fu one of the core disciples of the supreme martial sect!" He said while bowing with a smile on his face.
