Chapter 10: The Ceremony of Accepting Disciples Begins! Ye Chen worships the mountain! (Third Update)_1
It was noon.
The Qinglan Sect’s disciple recruitment ceremony, held once every three years, was about to begin!
Despite the sweltering heat and scorching sun, Enlightenment Square outside the mountain gate was already packed with ambitious youths from all corners of the Divine Land, all eager to embark on the path to immortality.
The scene was a clamorous hub of excitement. As far as the eye could see, tens of thousands of people had gathered.
This was because the Qinglan Sect had always advocated that the Dao knows no borders, and all should be taught regardless of their background.
Among the youths present were descendants of renowned Martial Arts families and imperial nobles. There were also impoverished farm youths and even idle, profligate young masters from wealthy families who had come merely to try their luck—a diverse crowd indeed.
At this moment, the five Chairmen, along with the Elders and stewards, had not yet made their appearance.
However, the aspiring young men and women were already buzzing with excitement, whispering amongst themselves:
"Dragon Head Peak! I must enter Dragon Head Peak! Sect Leader True Master Ziyun presides over Dragon Head Peak; it must be the branch with the deepest foundation!"
"My friend, you’re mistaken there! True Master Ziyun may be the Sect Leader, but among the Five Branches, Elder Chisong of Red Cloud Peak holds the highest seniority and wields the most authority! Red Cloud Peak is my top choice!"
