Chapter 1225 1218: Recruitment and Selection
A battle outside Wind Ridge Town.
The Lord of Wind Ridge Town set up a Level Four Great Killing Array, killing four Immortal Venerable Elders from the Blood Evil Sect in one fell swoop, severely injuring the sect's Spirit Beast, the Suanni Flame Beast.
This battle quickly spread like a storm to all corners.
First to the seven major cities of the Great Xia Dynasty such as Celestial Cyan City, Ye City, Wind City, and then to the Royal Capital.
More than half of the Great Xia Dynasty learned that a young and powerful lord had emerged in Wind Ridge Town, and this lord was also a Level Four Array Master.
Accompanying the spread was the recruitment announcement from the Lord of Wind Ridge Town.
Anyone who is at the Peak of Immortal Spirit Realm or at the Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm joining the Lord's Mansion only needs to serve for twenty years.
Then they can receive one Venerable-Breaking Pill gifted by the Lord's Mansion, along with Spirit Stones and Commander-level Demon Beast Meat to aid their breakthrough to the Immortal Venerable Realm.
Such a recruitment announcement is undoubtedly a heaven-sent blessing for those loose cultivators at the Peak of Immortal Spirit Realm and Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm.
If initially they were a bit worried about the enmity between the Lord of Wind Ridge Town and the Blood Evil Sect,
then after this great battle, the lord of Wind Ridge Town consecutively killed four Immortal Venerable strongmen of the Blood Evil Sect, enough to put those concerns to rest.
Wind Ridge Town.
For several days, cultivators have been fervently discussing this matter.
And within those several days, a total of thirty strongmen at the Peak of Immortal Spirit Realm and Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm gathered toward Wind Ridge Town, along with numerous cultivators eager to see the demeanor of this new lord.
As such, in just a few days, over a thousand cultivators have flooded into Wind Ridge Town.
Three days after that battle,
Early morning.
Lord's Mansion.
With a "creak," the door to Qin Yang's cultivation room was opened.
In the courtyard, Chi Huo and Qingmu were already waiting.
"Lord, thirty strongmen at the Peak of Immortal Spirit Realm and Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm have come to apply to join the Lord's Mansion, and are awaiting in the martial arts arena."
Elder Chi Huo said respectfully.
Since the day on the city wall, upon witnessing Qin Yang kill four Immortal Venerable strongmen of the Blood Evil Sect, their reverence for Qin Yang grew ever deeper.
"Let's go."
Qin Yang nodded indifferently.
The martial arts arena of the Lord's Mansion covers a very broad area; when Qin Yang arrived, those thirty strongmen at the Peak of Immortal Spirit Realm and Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm were already waiting on the square.
These people had diverse attire, yet their auras were all particularly strong.
At the moment, some of them recognized each other, still talking in groups of two or three.
As everyone saw Qin Yang walk into the martial arts arena, gaze after gaze promptly focused on the young figure in white.
"Is this the new lord? Looks so young."
"Even younger than the image data."
"..."
Discussion immediately rose among the crowd.
Swish!
Qin Yang glanced at those thirty cultivators, stepped forward, and arrived before this group on the martial arts arena.
Qin Yang's eyes carried a slight sharpness, sweeping over the talking crowd.
Feeling the leaked aura from Qin Yang, the crowd instantly grew quiet, the sound of a pin drop could be heard.
Just that trace of aura made these thirty strongmen at the Peak of Immortal Spirit Realm and Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm feel a sense of awe; worthy of being the lord who slew four experts from the Blood Evil Sect.
"Greetings, Lord."
The thirty strongmen respectfully clasped their fists to Qin Yang.
"All of you have come to apply to my Lord's Mansion, the conditions have been clearly stated on the recruitment announcement. The application will start later; if anyone wishes to exit, you may do so now."
Qin Yang's gaze swept over the crowd.
Upon hearing this, none of the thirty cultivators moved.
"Very well."
Qin Yang nodded indifferently, then waved his sleeve.
Swish, swish, swish!
Ten streams of light flew out from Qin Yang's storage bag.
The thirty cultivators below all turned their gaze towards those ten streams of light.
Those were ten White Jade Porcelain Bottles. With a thought, Qin Yang opened the stoppers of the ten bottles.
Buzz~! Buzz~! Buzz~!
At that moment, ten purple round pills flickering with lightning light, buoyed by the pill power, floated out from the bottles, hovering in mid-air.
An incredibly strange pill fragrance spread out, wafting throughout the entire martial arts arena in an instant.
Looking at those ten round purple pills, on the square, those thirty strongmen at the Peak of Immortal Spirit Realm and Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm,
each pair of eyes instantly surged with intense eagerness, and their breathing became rapid.
"It's Venerable-Breaking Pills!"
"A full ten Venerable-Breaking Pills!"
"Such a display, truly..."
"..."
Many cultivators swallowed hard, and a few individuals even reddened in the eyes, shouting out aloud.
For them, being at the Peak of Immortal Spirit Realm and Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm, nothing is more eye-popping and irresistible than the Venerable-Breaking Pills.
In the past, most of these people only knew of the appearance of Venerable-Breaking Pills, many had never seen actual Venerable-Breaking Pills with their own eyes.
Now, right before their eyes, there are a full ten Venerable-Breaking Pills!
That alluring pill fragrance makes their spiritual power within start to stir.
If Qin Yang wasn't present, these people might have already erupted into a battle for these ten Venerable-Breaking Pills.
Swish!
With a flick of Qin Yang's finger, the ten Venerable-Breaking Pills fell back into the pill bottles, Qin Yang summoned them back into his storage bag with a gesture.
Seeing the ten Venerable-Breaking Pills vanish, the heated gazes gradually shifted away, back to the white-clad figure on the martial arts arena.
"You all saw just now, those are ten Venerable-Breaking Pills, I will select ten among you thirty to become Honored Guest Elders of the Lord's Mansion, and only these ten will qualify to take the Venerable-Breaking Pills."
Qin Yang's gaze, with a slight sharpness, swept over the cultivators below as he spoke with hands folded.
Upon hearing this, the cultivators exchanged glances; it means they have a one in three chance of obtaining these Venerable-Breaking Pills, which is not a low probability.
"Yes, Lord."
The thirty cultivators all clasped their hands in response.
Swish!
With a wave of Qin Yang's sleeve, thirty light balls floated out, hanging in mid-air.
"These are draw numbers, one per person, paired in duels; number one against number sixteen, number two against number seventeen, and so on, up to number fifteen against number thirty. I will choose the ten based on your duel performances!"
Qin Yang addressed the cultivators below.
"Draw your numbers."
Qin Yang instructed directly.
Upon hearing the duel rules, many eyes filled with fervent combat intent, then each one's hands flickered with spiritual power, reaching toward the light balls in mid-air.
"Alright, number one and number sixteen, to the stage!"
After the drawing, Qin Yang set his gaze on the thirty cultivators present and spoke directly.
Boom! Boom!
With those words, two figures burst forth with aura, flashing towards the center of the martial arts arena, onto the spacious martial arts stage.
