Of course, it's not that the external disciples have no future. Zhenhuotang selects some internal disciples from the external disciples every year.

Every month, the disciples of the external sect also have a pill subsidy issued by the sect. A Qi gathering pill can be sold if they are not willing to take it by themselves.

In addition to completing the tasks that you must complete, there are evening classes after dinner every day. In short, it is two hours of practice time. Zhenhuotang will also specially send people to guide the practice, and you can learn a lot.

……

On the day of the reception ceremony, Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo got up early before dawn and came to a mountain with the crowd participating in the reception ceremony.

The peak is thousands of feet high, and the true fire hall is built on it. Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo followed many monks to climb the steps. This is the first time Gu Yuan has seen so many monks.

To be honest, Gu Yuan was a little excited, and he finally had the opportunity to get close to the group of practitioners in the xuanjing.

Because the admission standard of zhenhuo hall is above the gas refining period, the lowest cultivation among these monks is also the early stage of the gas refining period, in which Gu Yuan's cultivation belongs to the bottom, which is inconspicuous.

Although the people who came to register for the election were like carp crossing the river, the front door of zhenhuotang was in order, and the tables and chairs used for registration were lined up.

Every few years, zhenhuo hall will hold an apprenticeship ceremony to expand its disciples. The disciples of zhenhuo Hall who are responsible for the reception are doing their own things step by step, and there is no sign of panic.

All candidates should first leave their names, ages, origins, teachers, cultivation levels and so on.

After registration, there is the first level of screening. The disciples in charge of registration will dissuade some older monks with relatively low accomplishments or monks with unknown origins on the spot.

The candidates who have registered and passed the first level will also gather around the registration points to watch the excitement. All the candidates are competitive, and they want to know the relevant information of their new competitors in advance.

Gu Yuan and Yun Duoduo registered Bailu village in Qianyu mountain. Bailu village has been bloodied. Even if zhenhuotang went to investigate, nothing could be found.

In fact, with the introduction of Yi Wen, Gu Yuan directly got himself and Duoduo two places for outside disciples at the cost of ten Qi gathering pills per person last night. Now the registration is just a formality.

Soon, Gu Yuan was glad that his Qi gathering pill was not in vain, because the selection of external disciples had to go through layers of examination, which was very troublesome. In addition to the initial screening, there were also interviews and written examinations in groups of ten people, and countless people were brushed down.

Next is the challenge arena competition. In order to save time, everyone was taken to a special competition venue.

At this time, more than a dozen challenge platforms have been built on the competition site, and the competition will be carried out at the same time.

The rule is very simple, that is, the deacon in charge of this competition randomly points out the names of two people on the list, goes to the arena to fight, the winner stays, and the loser retreats.

Not everyone can take out the ten Qi gathering pills. At this time, it shows the difference between doting and not doting. Those who don't dote should be real in the arena.

The monks who are willing to manage have received the notice. Later, a deacon will call aside with the list to have a competition. Only one competition, regardless of win or lose, can become an outside disciple.

At present, before the Deacon came, Gu Yuan took Yun Duoduo and Yi brothers to stand under one of the challenge platforms to watch the excitement.

To see the excitement, there are many other external disciples in previous years. Most of them look arrogant. They even gloat at at seeing someone lose the election. Whenever there are players with equal strength, they will gamble.

At this time, two monks had walked to the challenge arena, about ten steps apart.

The one on the left looked handsome and dressed in gray civilian clothes. He didn't bring any weapons when he came on the court.

When he saw the white friar on the right with a long sword hanging around his waist, he hesitated and took a long knife from the weapon rack in the corner of the challenge arena.

After both sides reported their names and accomplishments, the referee announced the start of the competition.

Both of them reported their accomplishments at the beginning of the Qi refining period, but from the perspective of momentum, the white monk was slightly better.

The friar in white instantly took out his long sword around his waist, took a sword flower and stabbed the grey friar in the throat, and the grey friar resisted with a horizontal knife.

The swords collided, and the grey friar stepped back four or five steps before he stood firm. The white friar did not retreat but entered, holding the sword and splitting again.

Seeing the fierce attack of the white friar, the grey friar panicked and raised his palm to gather Qi. A watermelon sized water ball flew out of the white Friar's head.

Friar in white chopped the water ball with his sword and was drenched into a drowned chicken.

The audience burst into laughter.

Why do you use such a harmless spell?

Interfere with the enemy's line of sight?

After the grey friar used the water polo technique, he didn't take advantage of the white friar being attacked by the water polo, but took out a Qi gathering pill to take.

Many friars at the beginning of the Qi training period will empty their spiritual power after using spells, so they must replenish their spiritual power in time, which is why low-level friars are unwilling to use spells.

Unfortunately, before he took this Qi gathering pill, he was rushed by the angry monk in white and kicked him off the challenge arena.

The white monk cursed and rolled the water drops on his hair. The referee announced with a smile that the white monk sukemu won.

In the second game, sukemu was still facing his opponent in the early stage of gas refining. Unfortunately, sukemu didn't win this time and was knocked down by the other party.

Gu Yuan frowned and asked, "Yi Wen, are all accomplishments at the beginning of the Qi training period. Why is the gap so large?"

Yi Wen answered while watching the competition: "the early stage of the gas refining period refers to the first to third layers of gas refining, the middle stage of the gas refining period refers to the fourth to sixth layers of gas refining, and the later stage of the gas refining period is the seventh to ninth layers.

Even at the same stage, there is a big gap between the three levels.

As for the peak of the gas refining period, that is, the ten layers of the gas refining period, the Qi gathering pill is only effective for the first to ninth layers of the gas refining period, and there is almost no effect in the ten layers of the gas refining period.

The 10th floor is only one step away from building the foundation. If there is a foundation Dan, it can improve the probability of building the foundation.

However, many people have no way to build a foundation for success in their lives. "

Gu Yuan nodded to show understanding. If Yi Wen didn't tell him, he really didn't know that there was such a detailed division in the xuanjing.

Gu ran thought for a while and asked, "can I buy this foundation Dan?"

Yi Wen said with a smile, "it's not so easy to buy. If so, who will come to the sect?"?

Each gate Party's own disciples will have a part of the supply of foundation pills, which are usually awarded to disciples with outstanding performance or talent.

However, I heard that both external and internal disciples can exchange their sect points for pills from the Dan Hall.

As for whether this integral can be exchanged for Jidan, I really don't know. "
