Chapter 116 - 113: Murong Yun
Yang Hall, located southeast of the Heavenly Martial Hall, was surrounded by dozens of towering peaks forming a ring, with waterfalls rushing down from the mountain tops like dragons, emitting a thunderous roar that echoed through the entire sky.
Atop these peaks, one could see countless large halls filled with dense crowds of people, who moved about energetically at times.
Above them, nature’s spiritual energy formed a canopy-like fog layer, enveloping the mountain tops and even bringing down the Spirit Rain.
Although Heavenly Martial Hall was only a Third Grade Sect, in Ye Xuan’s view, its grandeur was comparable to some Fourth Grade Sects he had seen before.
"The entire Heavenly Martial Hall has five thousand disciples, of which Yang Hall has the fewest, only eight hundred, not even one-fifth."
Feng Yuan and Ye Xuan walked side by side, and as they advanced, a large red hall also came into view ahead of them.
"Five thousand disciples?"
Hearing this, Ye Xuan’s eyes slightly changed, then he spoke with some confusion, "Heavenly Martial Hall only recruits disciples once every three years, not even a hundred each time, where do they get so many?"
"There aren’t that many just from the inner and outer hall disciples. The Sect rule states, if one hasn’t reached the Martial Sect Master Realm by the age of fifty, they lose their disciple status and are sent out by the Sect to manage external affairs. Every year, quite a number of people fall into this category."
Feng Yuan smiled, "However, besides the formal assessment every three years, Heavenly Martial Hall also recruits a batch of menial disciples annually to handle the various tedious tasks of the Sect. Those who perform exceptionally can be promoted to deacon disciples, but their system is different from yours, and at most, they might end up as a Deacon Elder."
