Wang Zhong said: "Okay, instructor, I won't be polite. Tomorrow, several elders and senior officials from my Daoji Palace will come to choose disciples. What your fate will be depends on tomorrow's fate."
"Yes, instructor."
the next day.
One hundred and eight disciples stood neatly on the square, staring at the group of more than a dozen people in front of them. Among them were instructor Wang Zhong, Taoist Master Chen Guang who brought Jia Zhentian, and several older old men.
Three middle-aged Taoist priests.
"Disciples, first of all, congratulations to you one hundred and eight new disciples for becoming the official disciples of our Daoji Palace. These include the highly respected elders of our Daoji Palace, as well as the internal and external leaders in charge of Daoji Palace, and the three elders.
Taoist Master Chenguang of the same generation, they all want to choose disciples among you, if you can be selected by any of you, you will become the core talents of Daoji Palace in the future."
"Yes, instructor."
"Sixth Elder, should you choose first?"
"Well, okay, I can see that Jia Zhentian, Guo Yudan, and Roger are the best. This Jia Zhentian was brought back by Junior Brother Chen Guang. I'll choose Roger?"
"Roger, why don't you come forward to pay homage to the Sixth Elder? You are honored to be valued by the Sixth Elder. What if I want to be the disciple of the Sixth Elder?"
The black Roger quickly stepped forward and knelt down and said: "Roger pays homage to Master, thank you Master for taking me here."
"You're welcome, my disciple. Get up quickly. You have good qualifications. I will become your teacher in the future. I hope your talent will not be buried."
Jia Zhentian could tell at a glance that the sixth elder was a peak seventh-level master, and there was a possibility of breaking through to an eighth-level master at any time. It would be a good place for Roger to become his disciple. This sixth elder was also the one with the highest cultivation level present.
One person.
Wang Zhong continued: "Let the Seventh Elder choose now?"
"Jia Zhentian has been booked by Taoist Master Chen Guang. It seems that I can't win his love by force. Guo Yudan is good, but it's a pity that she is a girl. I will choose the two disciples in the sixth row in front. I hope you will follow me as my teachers and become talented in the future."
Before Wang Zhong called out their names, they both knelt down and saluted the seventh elder and said, "Meet the Master."
Half an hour later, most of the senior officials in Daoji Palace had chosen their disciples, leaving only two people who had no choice. One was an old man with gray hair, and the other was Taoist Master Chen Guang.
More than 20 of the 108 new disciples were selected, but Jia Zhentian and Guo Yudan were not selected. Jia Zhentian knew that he was Taoist Master Chenguang's designated disciple, and he was deeply attracted by Taoist Master Chenguang's fire path.
He was impressed by his skills, so he didn't react at all. However, as one of the three masters of this group of new disciples, Guo Yudan felt unhappy when he was not selected.
"Ninth Elder, it's your choice now, right?"
"Why don't you let Taoist Brother Chen Guang choose?"
Taoist Master Chen Guang also said: "The Ninth Elder is here. How dare Chen Guang choose first? Should the Ninth Elder choose?"
"I think it's better for Taoist Brother Chen Guang to choose first. Otherwise, Taoist Brother Chen Guang won't be happy after I, Lao Jiu, choose."
"How dare Chen Guang."
"In this case, I, the ninth one, have to choose. I, the ninth one, have never had any experience in teaching disciples. At such a long age, I have never chosen a good disciple. This time I saw Jia Zhentian and I was very happy.
I am satisfied, if I can choose freely below, then I will choose Jia Zhentian, right?"
"ah."
"ah."
"ah."
There was such an exclamation in the mouths of three people. Jia Zhentian, Taoist Master Chen Guang, and the Sixth Elder were all surprised.
When the Ninth Elder heard the three people's exclamations, he quickly turned to the Sixth Elder and said: "Sixth Brother, maybe what Lao Ninth did is wrong, but I just like Jia Zhentian, and I think Jia Zhentian is also very suitable for practicing my Broken Gold Hand.
I hope Brother Six will make it happen."
"Haha, Ninth Brother, you are not mistaken, it seems that you should talk to Junior Brother Chen Guang to make things right."
The ninth elder turned to look at Jia Zhentian and said: "Since my sixth brother doesn't ask, and Taoist Master Chen Guang just asked me to choose first, I am honored to have chosen you. Jia Zhentian, you don't have to feel that the gain is not worth the loss, as long as you are willing to worship me as your
Master, then I will not only teach you my best skill at Broken Gold Hands, but I will also train you to become a talented person. It is possible for you to take over my position as an elder in the future, so you should consider it carefully."
"This, Ninth Elder, boy..."
Before Jia Zhentian finished speaking, Taoist Master Chenguang said first: "Jia Zhentian, since the Ninth Elder has taken a fancy to you, you should follow the Ninth Elder to practice well. When you have free time, just go to my Chenguang Palace to see me. It won't be in vain."
I’ll take you to Daoji Palace.”
"Yes, Taoist Master Chen Guang, disciple Jia Zhentian pays homage to the master."
"Haha, okay, Jia Zhentian, Master, my name is Taoist Jiugong. From now on, you will be Master's disciple. You will follow Master back to Jiugong after the meeting."
"Yes, Master."
Chen Guang Tianzun said quickly: "Chen Guang congratulates the ninth elder."
"Haha, I would also like to thank Taoist Master Chen Guang for becoming the all-round master. Now let's ask Taoist Master Chen Guang to choose?"
"I'll choose Guo Yudan? Guo Yudan, are you willing to become my disciple?"
"Guo Yudan pays homage to Master."
"Okay, from now on you will live in Chenguang Palace with my master. If you have time, you can communicate more with Jia Zhentian, Roger and the others. You young people need to make more friends."
"Yes, Master."
Jia Zhentian heard Master Chen Guang's words and understood what he meant. He also made up his mind that even if he accepted this Jiugong Taoist as his teacher, he would still find a way to secretly go to Master Chen Guang to learn the art.
The leader of the Sixth Elder said: "Wang Zhong, since we have selected disciples, you can send the remaining disciples to our core disciples of Daoji Palace. Let us all disperse and go back to teach our disciples properly."
, I hope there will be more outstanding disciples in the Daoji Palace Disciple Competition in the next year."
"Yes, Sixth Elder."
"Yes, Sixth Brother."
Nine Palaces.
"Jia Zhentian, do you really worship me as your teacher, Jiugong?"
"Jia Zhentian pays homage to Master. Of course Jia Zhentian sincerely worships Master as his teacher."
"That's good, don't think that you haven't suffered from following Chen Guang. Although Chen Guang is a fellow disciple at the same time as several of my elders, he is just a Sandao. We, the thirty-sixth elder of Daoji Palace, are ranked as masters.
Ninth, it is not something that ordinary people can have."
"This disciple knows the status of Master and the difference between Master and Taoist Master Chen Guang. This is why Jia Zhentian chose Master over Taoist Master Chen Guang."
"Okay, it's great if you think so. In the future, you will understand how wise your choice today is. This is a gift from Master, accept it."
Jia Zhentian took a dagger handed over by Master Jiugong in his hand. Although he knew that what he was holding was a low-grade magic weapon, Jia Zhentian pretended to be confused and said: "Master, this dagger seems to be very special. I don't know what its name is?"
"
"This sword is a magic weapon. Although it is only a low-grade magic weapon, it is still very valuable. It is not an exaggeration to say that this dagger is a treasure. As for the name, you can choose it yourself. The master used to use this dagger
It’s called Broken Gold Sword. It’s up to you whatever name you want.”
"The Broken Gold Sword sounds very nice. I'll call him Broken Gold Sword too. Thank you, Master."
"My Jiugong has accepted a total of eight disciples. With you, I will have nine. You are the ninth disciple accepted by Master. Your eight senior brothers are currently in seclusion. When they come out of seclusion, I will let you and
They meet."
"Yes, Master."
"Your physical fitness is very good, but why can't I see your cultivation level, Master? From a first-level expert to a seventh-level expert, you can hardly escape my eyes. Could it be that you are a super seventh-level expert?"
"Master, what are you thinking about? Jia Zhentian is just a veteran from the ordinary army. As for Master not being able to recognize my cultivation, it's not because of my natural problems. Not only does it make me extremely ugly, but I also have poor health.
It’s also very different from ordinary people.”
"So that's it. How much energy do you have now? What level of master do you belong to?"
"Master, he should be a level four master, right?"
"Level 4 is one level behind Roger. It doesn't matter. Master will help you break through soon."
"Thank you, Master."
"Jia Zhentian, you rest here now. We have accepted new disciples today. It's time to go to the third elder to report the situation. When I come back, I will teach you the unique cultivation skills."
"Yes, Master."
Shadowless Palace.
"Third brother, I'm here, and sixth brother is here too."
After seeing the Taoist Master of Jiugong, the Sixth Elder said: "Old Jiu, how could you forcefully accept Jia Zhentian today? You must know that Jia Zhentian was selected by Junior Brother Chenguang to enter the Daoji Palace, and Junior Brother Chenguang has never accepted a Taoist in all these years.
A suitable disciple. I finally had hope today, but you let it dash."
"Brother Six, I also like Jia Zhentian very much. Besides, didn't Taoist Master Chen Guang also accept Guo Yudan?"
"Alas, no one with a discerning eye can see the disappointment of Junior Brother Chen Guang."
"Sixth brother, you can't be so prejudiced just because he, Chen Guang, is your junior brother. At that time, I also said that he should choose first, but he was aloof and insisted on letting me choose first. Now that I have chosen, you are criticizing me for not doing so.
, does it mean that my Jiugong should choose disciples regardless of conscience?"
"Lao Jiu, Brother Six doesn't mean that. It's just that my junior brother Chenguang has never accepted an apprentice. You already have eight apprentices, can't you let him go?"
"It's true that I have eight disciples, but five of them are dead, two more have been running around outside for many years, and the last one is undercover in the country and doesn't have a disciple around him."
"Okay, don't argue anymore. It's embarrassing to keep arguing like this. Isn't it just a disciple? Junior Brother Chen Guang finally accepted the girl this time. It's a blessing, not a curse. You can't avoid it. Just let everything go."
"Third brother."
"Sixth Brother, even though you are the Sixth Elder of our Elder Hall, you are also my junior brother. Don't mention this matter. The Nine Palaces also have the position of the Nine Palaces. You can go down first."
"Yes, third brother."
After the sixth elder left, Taoist Master Jiugong took a few steps forward and said to the third elder: "Third brother, according to your instructions, Jia Zhentian has been received under the door. What instructions do you have? Just tell me."
