It was approaching noon.
I saw a man flying on a sword from the direction of the mountain gate and landing directly on the circular platform at the entrance of the mine. It was Manager Mo.
"Everyone please come out of the mine and gather here for a headcount!" Manager Mo said loudly.
Everyone filed out of the mine gate, including Murong Xue, Xiao Pang, Xu Ying and others who arrived in time at the last minute.
Manager Mo counted the number of people and found that three people were missing, so he asked everyone if they had seen him. Most of them covered their mouths and laughed.
Yuan Xiao raised his hand to signal Manager Mo, pointing to the mine square. Manager Mo understood, asked the others to wait here, and walked into the mine alone.
Seeing the miserable state of Wang Yin and his group and smelling the pungent stench, Manager Mo remained calm, pinched his right hand and pointed at Wang Yin in the air, and Wang Yin woke up.
Manager Mo threw out three sets of clothes for the servants from his storage bag, and told the three to wash in the pond behind the rockery outside the gate, giving them an incense stick of time, and then to gather on the circular platform. Before the three could thank him, Manager Mo turned and walked away.
After an incense stick of time, Wang Yin and the other two finished cleaning and changed into servants' clothes. Even a tough guy like Wang Yin blushed. This man had embarrassed himself too much today!
It was the same flying boat as yesterday. Everyone returned to the selection test square together. The middle-aged Taoist who presided over the meeting asked everyone to report their gains.
It turned out that only two people had gains. The fat boy Hu Lai found four low-grade spirit stones, and Murong Xue found two low-grade spirit stones. The others had no gains. So it was announced on the spot that the fat boy Hu Lai would also be accepted as an inner disciple.
At this time, the confirmed inner disciples became five people, Murong Xue, Wang Yin, Xu Ying, Yuan Xiao, and Hu Lai. Murong Xue also rewarded three low-grade spirit stones.
The middle-aged Taoist admired the fat boy's recklessness. This time, the fat boy was lucky enough to find four low-grade spirit stones, which showed that he was also very lucky.
"I am the sixth elder Yao Feng, responsible for the refining of the elixir of our sect. Fatty, I am quite optimistic about you. Would you like to practice with me? Even if it is a one-year outer sect training period, you only need to work for me, and it will still be counted as a year of menial work for you."
"Yes, thank you, Master!" The little fat boy was sweet-mouthed. Before he officially became his disciple, the master called him first. The Sixth Elder had an immortal look and was exactly the immortal in the little fat boy's mind. The two of them hit it off immediately. It was indeed a destiny.
Next, Wang Yin was accepted as a disciple by the fourth elder Tianchou, who was Wang Jin's master. With the recommendation of his disciple Wang Jin, and Tianchou himself being a sinister and ruthless person, he also took a fancy to Wang Yin's ruthlessness, so the matter was settled.
Murong Xue and Xu Ying were accepted under the tutelage of the Fifth Elder, a middle-aged woman. The skills she practiced were just right for women to cultivate, so most of her disciples were female.
"Yuanxiao, your master has not yet been determined, and plans to send you to the Library of Learning to do odd jobs for a year, helping the public lecturers to organize the data files. What do you think?" asked the Sixth Elder Yao Feng.
This task is quite easy, not so hard, and the Sixth Elder is also optimistic about Yuanxiao, so he proposed a more leisurely job, so that Yuanxiao has more time to practice.
"Our spirit beast garden also needs people to do odd jobs and help raise the spirit beasts. Yuanxiao, are you willing to do odd jobs in our spirit beast garden?" The fourth elder Tianchou asked eagerly.
Yuanxiao knew very well that the Fourth Elder Tianchou's place was the last place he should go to. It was the most dangerous place for him, especially since he did not have a clear master to protect him.
"Thank you for your kindness, elders. I just saw a spiritual medicine garden at the gate of the mine in the back mountain.
I am particularly interested in growing spiritual medicines. I beg the elders to allow Yuan Xiao to stay in the spiritual medicine garden at the old site of the mountain gate to do odd jobs and contribute to the sect!"
