Dragon Monarch
Chapter 16 - Registration Requirements
“Very many people want to enter the Sky Dragon sect.” Lin Yan was surprised by the number of young men and women who wanted to enroll into the sect.
“Of course very much. The entry requirements are very strict. The Heavenly Dragon Sect there is a great power in this continent. Only a few have greater power, examples are some other sects and the two great empires themselves.” Gu Yuena explained.
“Is the Star Kingdom that strong?” asked Lin Yan.
“Of course they are strong. Otherwise, this Job will be named the Kingdom of the Sky Dragon.” Gu Yin chuckled back at Lin Yan's question.
“Precaution all!” a young man shouted for all who wanted to register to be silent.
Looking at all the people who had been silent, the young man gave a small nod and spoke. “In these few days the Heavenly Dragon sect will choose a talented child to enter into the sect. The rule this time was that the lifespan did not pass 18 years as this was recruitment for the outer disciples of the Heavenly Dragon sect.”
“And cultivation must reach at least the level of the sixth stage Qi Foundation. There are some rules that exist about the level and age.”
“For ages 13 and under, every child should have a sixth stage Qi Foundation cultivation level at least.”
“For ages 14 to 16 years must reach the ninth stage Qi Foundation level at least.”. He continued to explain everything about spiritual roots as well.
For those who have a letter of recommendation, each child will pass the first and second selection directly.
Recruitment this time is quite strict because not only the age and cultivation level will be assessed. Everything has included about spiritual roots, endurance of the body as well as fighting.
The exam is divided into four levels. For someone who has a letter of recommendation, they will pass two exams automatically.
The third test is to check the spiritual roots and the fourth exam is a real fight. To the geniuses who obtained the recommendation letter, they would only look like doing the final exam because it was certain that every genius with the recommendation letter would have quite high spiritual roots.
“Is there a question?” the young man looked around at the child who signed up and no one asked.
“Good! For those who have a letter of recommendation, you go to the building!” the young man's orders.
All who had a letter of recommendation went directly to the building designated by the young man.
“Good. For those without a letter of recommendation, the first exam is very simple! Go to the Sky Dragon sect within the allotted time! Start!” the young man shouted as the gate was opened by some members of the Heavenly Dragon sect.
All those who applied immediately moved as quickly as possible because they knew that if the exam was very simple, more than half of them would fail the first exam.
Lin Yan looked at all the children who were doing the first exam. He then looked towards the building pointed at by the young man and walked towards it along with Gu Yuena and Gu Yin.
More than fifty children have letters of recommendation. They were all from influential families or powerful clans residing in the Star Kingdom. The two women who had scorned Lin Yan earlier while in Seijin city were also seen at that place.
The reason why the two women were with Gu Yuena and Gu Yin, was because their two clans had a friendship.
When entering the building, there were five tables filled by five individuals to view the recommendation letter. All of them were the outer Elders of the Heavenly Dragon sect.
“Create five rows. We will check your letter of recommendation.” one of the outer Elders spoke in a dignified tone.
And all of the children lined up. Lin Yan, Gu Yuena and Gu Yin took the most fringe ranks. In front of them were two men who were also lined up.
In the row next to Lin Yan, there were two women he had met before and looked at him with eyes of disbelief that a child from the village would have a recommendation letter.
Recommendation letters aim to forge friendships between clans or other influential families. That is why since long ago, only those who have letters of recommendation. The talented young cultivators who had no influential clans or families were almost never seen to have letters of recommendation.
“I did not expect that the person from the village would get a letter of recommendation.” The woman said in a slightly loud tone that made all the young men and women in that place look towards Lin Yan.
“Dragon talks Meng Shui!” Gu Yuena was unhappy with Meng Shui's words because she felt that Lin Yan was not as simple as he seemed.
“Oh? Child of the village? Looks like the country boy has broken the record, ha-ha-ha!” a young man suddenly opened his voice while laughing.
The others also laughed because of course they would greatly underestimate the people from the village. Despite having a letter of recommendation, they simply do not believe that the letter of recommendation is real. There was no advantage for the Heavenly Dragon sect to provide a recommendation letter to the village boy. Although talented, the quality of a child from a powerful clan or influential family would definitely be higher.
Lin Yan did not care at all and considered all of them as flies. It was not that he underestimated them, but he would definitely demean someone who was extremely arrogant without showing any strength. To Lin Yan, only strong people were worthy of respect. He had indeed relied on his grandfather who was somehow able to obtain a letter of recommendation. He was not at all arrogant like the other children who relied on their families as well but was arrogant for not using his own strength.
The Elders were only silent at this moment. They do not interfere at all if no dispute occurs.
“He.. I did not expect that the young miss of the Gu clan would defend the villagers.” Meng Shui chuckled, he naturally would not miss the opportunity to insult Gu Yuena even though their two clans had a friendship.
“Dragon talks you Meng Shui! Do you want me to break your leg?” this time Gu Yin directly threatened Meng Shui. Around Gu Yin, his qi slowly seeped.
“Do it if you have the power!” Meng Shui challenged Gu Yin and his qi also leaked out.
“Stop getting here!” one of the Elders spoke up which made Gu Yin and Meng Shui speechless.
“You will be surprised when you find out what a recommendation letter belongs to Lin Yan!” grunts Gu Yin.
“Let's see what it looks like. At most, he would only pass the first test.” snorted Meng Shui. He glanced towards Lin Yan with a look of disdain.
Lin Yan did not care about the quarrel of the two women at all. It is meaningless to argue for something unfavorable.
The calmness of Lin Yan also made the five Elders interested. Usually for a child will certainly release his emotions at a time like this.
Some talented clan members were also interested in Lin Yan at the moment. Of course not all of the young masters or young misses of the great clans would underestimate all of the villagers.
One of the masculine men stared at Lin Yan closely. He raised the corner of his lips at this moment. “Interesting, my instinct says danger from the child's body. It seems that getting into the Heavenly Dragon sect will not be boring.”
