Chapter 84: Cloud Valley
The Moon-Crossing Raft carried Luan Shan, Yu Hua, Zhao Yan, along with Qin Sang and the eleven newly inducted disciples, back to Yuanzhao Sect, retracing their steps. The other rogue cultivators, who had failed to make it into the top twelve, were dismissed on the spot.
Besides Qin Sang and Ruan Nanfeng, there was also a senior sister named Wu Liuyue who earned one of the spots, though her cultivation level was only at the sixth stage of the Qi Refining Realm.
Had Liu Yi not died, Kuiyin Sect members would have made up one-third of the group.
Qin Sang also saw several senior brothers and sisters who had failed to pass, leaving the Eight Trigrams Forbidden Ground with heavy hearts. What fate awaited them, he could not tell.
However, Qin Sang’s biggest concern was still himself.
"You are now disciples of the Yuanzhao Sect and must follow the sect’s rules. If you betray the sect, you will be killed without mercy!"
Yu Hua was giving them a lengthy speech on the rules of Yuanzhao Sect, his expression full of righteous fervor. To Qin Sang, it felt incredibly ironic.
"After joining the sect, you will begin as servant disciples to temper your hearts and minds. Normally, Senior Uncle Du would personally handle the allocation of tasks, but he is occupied today, so I will take his place."
As he spoke, Yu Hua retrieved twelve blank wooden waist tokens from his Mustard Seed Pouch, sweeping his gaze over the group. After a moment of thought, he pulled out one token and, with a stroke of spiritual power, quickly inscribed it before tossing it to Ruan Nanfeng.
