Chapter 5

In the outer sect, disciples with outstanding talent rush forward to ask:

"Junior Sister Yunxi, is this matter certain?"

Wang Yunxi smiles slightly and answers: "Naturally true."

Immediately after, just as everyone is discussing, someone asks softly and doubtfully:

"But Junior Sister, since there is such shocking news, why do you still choose to join the Yuqing Peak lineage, I don't know the reason..."

The words are not finished, but everyone already understands the meaning.

Since there is an opportunity to join the long-closed Shangqing Peak and directly become a true disciple above the inner sect, who can resist this temptation.

Why did Wang Yunxi choose the Yuqing lineage in advance?

Wang Yunxi looks calm and composed:

"I understand everyone's doubts, but there are some specific considerations in the family, making me only able to join the Yuqing lineage."

"Yunxi, if I could choose, the Shangqing lineage would definitely be the first choice. After all, the first disciple of the Shangqing Peak, and having a True Person like Fairy Yunxiao as a reliance, who wouldn't want that."

"However, since it is Fairy Yunxiao selecting disciples, the difficulty is self-evident, it is hard for ordinary people to reach, and Yunxi considers herself self-aware."

Some people in the crowd nod, and some doubt.

Some people flatter, saying Junior Sister Yunxi is too modest.

Everything is there.

What Wang Yunxi said can be considered frank, this Fairy Yunxiao selecting disciples must be extremely strict.

Most of those present are aristocratic disciples, most have already reached the Perfected State of the Second Heavenly Ladder, and some have even established their foundation.

The cultivation gap between each other is not big, but the strength is indeed different.

Everyone's eyes are inexplicable, all having their own considerations.

You know!

Shangqing Peak has been closed for many years, with only Fairy Yunxiao alone.

As long as you join, you are a true disciple, which is truly an opportunity to ascend to heaven in one step.

Wang Yunxi sees this, and says no more, continuing:

"There is another piece of bad news, everyone just listen. This four-year basic assessment of the outer sect three months later will be unusually strict, disciples who fail to meet the standard will be demoted to menial disciples, and will even be expelled from the Shenxiao Sect."

After hearing this news, everyone frowns, but most don't care too much.

Having joined the Shenxiao Sect for almost four years, for this group of aristocratic disciples who have cultivated to the Perfected State of the Second Heavenly Ladder, such an assessment is a small matter.

They are confident enough to deal with it.

However, a small part of the crowd shows a bitter look, including Yu Ke.

His face is calm, but his heart is secretly complaining.

Just transmigrated to this world, before he had time to adapt to everything here, he encountered an assessment.

Foundation establishment failed, cultivation completely wasted, this is undoubtedly a fatal blow to a cultivator.

Three months left!

It is imminent, the pressure is like a mountain.

Becoming a menial disciple basically means staying away from cultivation, a beast of burden for life.

What's worse, if expelled from the mountain gate, once such a shameful thing is spread back to the family, no matter how much his parents love him, the elders in the clan will not tolerate such shame.

I am afraid they will ruthlessly expel him from the family, without the family, he will be difficult to stand in this world.

Yu Ke can't help but curse himself for being unlucky, just transmigrated, and encountered such a tricky situation.

As for, two years later, Fairy Yunxiao selecting disciples in the outer sect competition.

For him, it is still too far away, no need to pay attention.

Let's get through the immediate difficulty first.

Since it has come to this, let's eat first.

Yu Ke picks up a spirit fruit and takes a fierce bite, while tasting various delicious pastries on the table.

He is not the only one here to eat and drink.

After all, there are also declining aristocratic disciples in the Great Zhou, not to mention those disciples from poor families.

In the Shenxiao Sect, outer sect disciples are all cultivating without production, without extra income, relying entirely on family support.

Although the Shenxiao Sect is a sect, it is not a charity, and doing anything requires spirit stones.

Except for the few basic cultivation methods provided in the sect that have special people to teach, if disciples encounter any problems in cultivation and want to ask teachers, they need to pay extra spirit stones.

"Really a pit!"

Menial disciples can receive some spirit stones as rewards every month, but outer sect disciples need to bear all expenses themselves.

Therefore!

Most outer sect disciples live quite frugally, and every spirit stone needs to be carefully calculated.

Being able to take advantage of this opportunity to take advantage is also a beautiful thing.

Yu Ke, who is burying his head in eating, is stopped by a voice.

"Yu Shixiong Yu, you were preparing for the outer sect competition to impact Superior Grade foundation establishment, how is it?"

The source of the voice is a young man at the same table.

The young man is named Zhao Li, an aristocratic disciple of the Great Zhou, now declining, his ancestors were also wealthy.

Because Yu Ke was eating and drinking without speaking, Zhao Li didn't notice at first, only now did he notice, his tone revealing a bit of intimacy, the two can be considered familiar, joining the Shenxiao Sect in the same year.

The foundation establishment methods recorded in the cultivation world are ever-changing, and there are more than three thousand kinds recorded in the Shenxiao Sect.

Foundation establishment is the watershed that distinguishes geniuses from ordinary people.

Foundation establishment is divided into nine grades, upper three grades, middle three grades, lower three grades, each grade represents different potential.

And above the first grade, it is the legendary Heavenly Mandate foundation establishment, only those proud sons of heaven can possess it, for the outer sect, it is simply out of reach.

The three basic cultivation methods of the Shenxiao Sect, once cultivated to the Perfected State, can achieve upper three grade foundation establishment.

However!

There are very few who can reach the Perfected State in the outer sect, showing the difficulty.

Yu Ke thinks for a while and recognizes the young man.

"So it's Junior Brother Zhao, how have you been?"

He shakes his head gently, indifferently saying: "Foundation establishment matters, not yet Perfected, still need time to prepare."

He knows deeply that exposing his failure in foundation establishment and his plummeting cultivation at this moment will not attract sympathy, but only white eyes.

Those creditors will not relax because of your temporary predicament, but will instead kick you when you are down at your most vulnerable moment, forcing you to hand over more things.

Yu Ke also says apologetically:

"The spirit stones I owe Junior Brother Zhao last time, most likely need to be relaxed for a few days."

The predecessor failed in foundation establishment, the price of the foundation establishment treasures he bought was jaw-dropping, his own money was definitely not enough, so he had to borrow a part from his fellow disciples.

Some wrote IOUs, some were verbal.

"No problem!"

Zhao Li says with a smile:

"Yu Shixiong doesn't need to worry, Junior Brother can still afford to wait, after Yu Shixiong succeeds in foundation establishment, don't forget to share the foundation establishment insights."

Zhao Li speaks boldly.

He doesn't need to worry about Yu Ke not paying back, after all, Yu Ke is backed by the Luoshui Yu family.

If someone causes trouble at the Yu family because of debt, it will only damage the Yu family's face.

According to Zhao Li, Yu Ke is very enterprising among their group of Great Zhou aristocratic fellow disciples, and his daily expenses are not shabby, showing reliable character.

What he borrowed is not much, he doesn't lack spirit stones, so he didn't take this matter to heart.

Yu Ke says thank you, secretly exhaling.

At least for a short time, these fellow disciples will not come to urge debt.

Zhao Li looks at the most eye-catching people in the field, with envy in his eyes.

"A great man should be like this, but how difficult it is to join the inner sect."

"Joining the Shangqing Peak is probably as difficult as ascending to heaven."

Yu Ke hears this, but it is indeed the case.

The number of inner sect disciples is fixed, and the competition is fierce.

This banquet is gradually entering the best state.

Guests are either making friends, talking and laughing, or clinging to the focus of the venue.

During this period, two small episodes occurred.

First, a follower under Xie Xuan, an inner sect disciple, provoked Wang Yunxi with indifferent words.

Xie Xuan is from the Xie family of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
