As soon as the old man in purple said, everyone in the hall looked solemn, revealing an interesting look.

Like those who left before, everyone was also very excited about the fifth test of Xinglin Villa.

However, the competition has basically ended here, and the remaining few people are among the best. So, what is the remaining fifth test?

No one could imagine it, so everyone looked at the old man in purple and became even more curious. Even the young man in purple and had always been as arrogant as the young man in purple or the young man in blue and calm was no exception.

"hehe……"

Seeing everyone's eyes, the old man in purple knew what they were thinking. He smiled slightly, didn't keep it in silence, and waved his hand back.

"Wow!"

In everyone's shocked eyes, the wall behind the ancient palace suddenly cracked "crack and crack...", revealing a new dark hall.

The dark hall is only a few feet in a radius, with cigarette smoke scattered inside, and a simple statue with white jade as the basis and bronze cast.

The statue is in the shape of a Taoist fairy style and a spirited old man. He is surrounded by white cranes, green trees surround the courtyard, and three apricot flowers are held between his fingers.

"This is?"

Everyone was stunned and a little confused. They all looked at the old man in purple. The old man in purple smiled and explained to everyone:

"This is a statue of Mr. Dong Junyi, the founder of our school, Dong Feng. Legend has it that he studied medicine when he was young and wandered around the world. He did not take money and goods when he cured his illness. Only those who recovered from the illness needed to plant one apricot in the mountains behind him. The mildest one was planted with five apricots. A few years later, tens of apricots were planted with a thicket. So the name of Xinglin Villa came from this."

"The rule of this fifth level of assessment is... Under the predecessor, we can clarify our thoughts and make vows.

First, you must not violate the name of Xinglin's medical principles throughout your life; second, you must not deviate from the heart of Xinglin Villa in your life; third, you must not use the skills you learned from Xinglin Villa in your life to harm the world, and you must not harm a person's life by tying the skills you learned from Xinglin Villa in your life.

Otherwise, you will not be able to have a good end, and you will go to the Avici Hell after death and fall into despair forever!"

"ah?"

Everyone was stunned. Unexpectedly, the fifth level was indeed simple, but it was actually the most difficult level.

Medicine, medicine, what is the original intention? After many people tasted the sweetness, they eventually became butchers who have become troubled by the world with their own skills. How dare they call the word "medical"?

Not only that, who among the people here dares to call themselves a lifetime, really come to study medicine?

Many people may be fascinated by the reputation of Xinglin Villa; some people, but they are just to learn the superb alchemy techniques of Xinglin Villa; some people, just to make the money, status, reputation... and everything in the future, how can they really save the world?

These three vows are simple to make, but they are more difficult to do. Everyone looked at each other, but no one stepped forward for a moment.

The old man in purple seemed to have expected this kind of scene and did not urge him. He just looked serious for the first time. He said calmly:

"This is the fifth test of Xinglin Five. It is the easiest level, but it is also the most difficult level. When you enter my door, ask your heart first. What do you want to learn if you want to enter my Xinglin Villa? What do you want to do after you finish your studies? If you have something you can do in the future, but are unwilling to do it for various reasons, do you remember the vow you made today?"

"So, as I said before, this fifth level is just a fiasco, but this is also the most important test to question your own hearts."

"I don't care what you are here for, and my ambitions are very different, but... I will make these three vows and you will act according to these three vows throughout your life. If you don't want to leave now, we will not stop you!"

After saying that, he looked at everyone with bright eyes, flashed by the expressions on everyone's face, then lowered his eyebrows, closed his eyes, and waited quietly.

In the quiet, there was silence. The eight people all lowered their heads and thought quietly. Is it worth making these three vows in order to enter Xinglin Villa?

After all, although the swearing in your heart can be false, if you make a statement and violate it in the future, others may not know it, but can you escape from your own heart?

Finally, Shui Xue was the first to look up, and the hesitation and confusion on her face had completely disappeared, because she had already discovered that this was the vow of her life, so why bother thinking too much and feel calm in her heart.

Without hesitation, she stepped forward, crossed everyone, and came to the small hall. An alchemist from Xinglin Villa looked at her with appreciation, and then handed over the three incense lines.

Illuminated, bowed, bowed, and sweared to the end, without any sound, but anyone could see the piety in her heart.

A hint of admiration appeared in the eyes of the old man in purple, and his eyes fell on the figure of the blue who slowly retreated and walked calmly into the crowd, feeling comforted.

With the leader, finally, the second figure appeared, and it turned out to be the beautiful girl in white clothes, always like a cloud-covered fog.

The behavior was exactly the same as Shuixue. Soon, the three wishes were fulfilled. She retreated to the crowd, lowered her head, and said nothing.

Afterwards, after hesitating for a moment, the boy in red and the girl in green walked out of the crowd at the same time, stepped forward, took the incense handed over by the alchemist next to him, kowtowed and bowed, and successfully passed the fifth test.

Four people have already chosen to accept the rules of getting started with the three oaths, and everyone's eyes can't help but fall on the remaining four people.

The young man in green clothes, the young man in purple clothes, Tang Gu, and the thick and rich young man in blue clothes who had been with them.

He smiled and the fifth step out of the crowd was the thick and thick young man in blue who accompanied Tang Gu and the others all the way.

He grinned, looking heartless, and then he slapped his head and went up. He quickly completed the movement and walked back, still looking heartless, as if he didn't understand what these three oaths mean.

Afterwards, after a long silence, the young man in green walked out the sixth time, slowly came to the statue, bowed respectfully three times, and then quietly retreated.

Seeing this, the young man in purple had a hint of hesitation flashed across his face, but after looking around, he found that he was the only one who was left with another inexplicable boy. At this time, most of the people in the field were converging on them.

After gritting his teeth, he was unwilling to give up halfway because of this, so he stopped hesitating and stepped forward to fulfill his vow.

In the end, only Tang Gu was left in the field.

"What, what about you, don't you?"

The old man in purple looked at Tang Gu who was bowing his head and pondering, and suddenly asked, his eyes fixed on Tang Gu's face.

Hearing this, Tang Gu's expression was not moving. But the eyes of the others around him could not help but gather on him. Shui Xue was anxious, the young man in green had a strange look, and the young man in purple had a disdain, and the other man had different expressions.

It's all here. I had no hope but suddenly gave you a quota. Don't you know how to cherish it? As long as you are an individual, even if you say something against your will, you will definitely bow your knees and don't want to let go, right?

However, a sound of astonishment suddenly rang out. Tang Gu slowly raised his head, and in his eyes, there was a tranquility, clearness and distantness, and he slowly said: "I... don't want it!"

Silence—

In the hall, there was death silence. After half a cup of tea, it suddenly became an uproar, like the water in a pot boiling until it was boiled.

Even if you go through the motions, not many people really take this kind of formal behavior seriously. The so-called words of ghosts and gods are true, and if you don’t believe, you won’t. How many people really take the so-called swearing of the heart?

But he answered...I don't want to!

Shui Xue could no longer hold it back and shouted anxiously: "Brother Tang..."

"Play!"

Suddenly, applause rang out in the hall. At this time, who would applaud and who dared to applaud? Everyone was stunned. Looking at it, they saw that it was the old man in purple.

He smiled and said, "Okay, very good, not against his original intention. Even if this is just a formality, it is much better than those against his will. I promise you that you can still get started without making these three oaths!"

"ah……"

"Elder!"

As soon as these words came out, the entire hall was in an uproar, and many alchemists in Xinglin Villa were full of horror and came forward to persuade him.

Only the old man in purple still had a calm expression from beginning to end. He ignored those who persuaded him and asked Tang Gu again: "How is it? If this is the case, are you willing to go?"

Tang Gu's eyes finally fell on the old man in purple again. After a long time, he finally nodded slowly: "Okay."

Without saying a word, the dust settled. Even though the other alchemists in Xinglin Villa were full of resentment and wanted to stop them, in the end, their lips moved a few times and they still let go. But when they looked at Tang Gu again, they were all the bad lights.

Tang Gu smiled and didn't care at all. His eyes only fell on Shui Xue, who was beside him. When Shui Xue heard this, she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and showed a sweet smile at Tang Gu.

It is as beautiful as a flower in its first birth, and as beautiful as the moon rises at the beginning.

"Okay, very good!"

The old man in purple laughed, as if he was very happy, then suddenly turned around and faced everyone, loudly announced: "Now, I can proudly tell you that all eight of you have passed the fifth level of assessment and become my introductory disciples of Xinglin Villa."

"Although the assessment is difficult and the process is tortuous,... because of this, you eight people were selected. If you want to become an alchemist, be cautious, careful, courage, courage, talent, and these qualities are indispensable, and you all have them.

You are well-deserved geniuses, innate alchemists, and real people."

"Okay, let's not say much nonsense. I'll give you three days to go back to deal with your own affairs, separate from your family, and prepare for a long journey. Three days later, it's still here. Everyone will leave with me and go to Nanxing County, Xinglin Villa headquarters to hold your official ceremony of entry into the clan.

At that time, someone will grant you the exclusive crown, robes, elixirs, classics and other application items to my Xinglin Villa, and register them. Only then will you be the official disciples of my Xinglin Villa!”

"Now, let's go... let's go..." After saying that, he waved his hand suddenly and took the other alchemists to leave the hall first.

Seeing this, the others looked at each other and had to leave, with different expressions, both of which were the joy of successfully passing the assessment and some inexplicable confusion.
Chapter completed!
