Chapter 66: Those with Slow Brains Are Not Recommended to Join the Demonic Sect
The examiners had given an order; it didn't matter if you were Chi Xulong or a powerful dragon crossing the river, you had to stand properly.
If you angered the examiners, did you still want to join the Demonic Sect?
Don't look at how well they were doing outside; no matter how well you were doing, could you be stronger than the Demonic Sect?
The Demonic Sect had a Sect Master with unfathomable cultivation and sect members as numerous as a forest of strong men. As for them, they only had themselves, and the highest cultivation among them was only late Foundation Establishment.
The three examiners were unfamiliar faces; no one present had seen them before. But that was understandable; the Demonic Sect was a more mysterious existence than demonic rogue cultivators and never showed their faces easily, so it was normal that no one had seen them.
Although they had arrived an hour earlier than the notified time, no one had any questions.
This should be one of the Demonic Sect's trials. Those who arrived early showed they cared about the Demonic Sect; those who arrived right on time didn't deserve to join.
Lu Yang sat with his legs crossed, took out a pen and paper, pointed to the first person, and asked: "Tell me, why did you choose to join the Demonic Sect? What can you bring us by joining the Demonic Sect? What plans do you have for yourself? What are your expectations for your salary?"
"Ah?" The first person was dumbfounded. He had been stunned by a series of questions as soon as he came up. Was this the Demonic Sect's entrance exam?
Shouldn't it be questions about cultivation, techniques, or what bad things they had done?
Seeing the first person unable to speak for a long time, Lu Yang waved his hand impatiently: "Ah what ah? You stutter when facing our questions. If you get caught by the government later, won't you just spill all the Demonic Sect's foundations?"
"You are eliminated. Go back."
The second person was the leader of a small gang who had been in jail many times. After being released, he found his gang and wife had been occupied by his underlings, and he had snatched his gang and wife back many times. He was a gang leader with quite rich experience.
"My name is Niu Mang, leader of the Green Dragon Gang. I chose to join our Demonic Sect because I want a better development prospect. I have many similarities with our Demonic Sect regarding the philosophy of the demonic path, and I believe we will get along very harmoniously after joining. After joining the Demonic Sect, I will definitely work diligently to do bad things, grow strong together with the Demonic Sect, and create brilliance again!"
"My plan for myself is: whatever the Demonic Sect needs me to do, I will do it without any complaints. After all, only when the Demonic Sect is strong can I be strong!"
"The Demonic Sect has given me a place to stand; how could I still ask the Demonic Sect for a salary? I should be the one offering tribute to the Demonic Sect!"
When Niu Mang reached the point of excitement, he even waved his fists, indicating that he would definitely overcome difficulties and welcome a bright future.
He spoke very fluently; after all, that was how he educated the Green Dragon Gang.
"You are eliminated. Go back."
"Why?" Niu Mang was very unconvinced; he thought his answer was quite perfect.
Lu Yang scolded him sternly, feeling Niu Mang was unworthy of being a demonic path practitioner: "What is the demonic path? The demonic path is selfish. How could someone like you, who serves the Demonic Sect wholeheartedly without asking for anything in return, be a demonic practitioner? As a member of the Demonic Sect, you must always think about how to usurp power and rebel. If you don't fight internally, what kind of Demonic Sect is it?"
"And didn't you say it yourself? Whatever the Demonic Sect needs you to do, you will do. Now the Demonic Sect needs to eliminate you. Get out!"
Niu Mang left dejectedly. The people behind heard this and felt their horizons broadened. So this was the theory of the Demonic Sect. Truly worthy of being examiners; their understanding of the demonic path was profound.
"Next one," Meng Jingzhou shouted.
"My name is Chi Xulong, Foundation Establishment cultivation." Chi Xulong emphasized his cultivation, wanting the examiners to value him.
"Tell me, what bad things have you done?"
Speaking of this, Chi Xulong had plenty to say: "I was snatched away and raised by wolves on the mountain since I was a child. At the age of ten, I used a bone knife to kill the wolf that snatched me and went down the mountain to live. In the mountains, I snatched whatever I wanted. This habit was the same when I got to the city. If I lacked something, I snatched it. Then the constables chased me, so I snatched all the way, and the constables chased all the way. My pace is very fast, no one can catch me. When robbing, I also took people as hostages and killed a few who blocked my way."
Chi Xulong spoke triumphantly. Someone like him who had done all kinds of bad things wasn't qualified to enter the Demonic Sect?
Meng Jingzhou shook his head: "Nowadays, the righteous path is strong, and we demonic practitioners must act low-key. Your style of doing things is too flamboyant; sooner or later, you will fall because of this. Look at you, how many people recognize you? Then look at the three of us, who recognizes us? This is the gap!"
"This is not hiding one's head and showing one's tail, but premeditated lurking, the wisdom of hiding in the city!"
Man Gu looked curiously at Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou. How come it felt like Brother Lu and Brother Meng were quite familiar with the demonic path?
After hearing this, Chi Xulong was greatly inspired, thinking he had thought of the demonic path too simply, and took the initiative to leave.
"I am Shen Jinyi." The white-faced scholar Shen Jinyi introduced himself with a smile. After the previous few questions and answers, he felt he already understood the other party's approach.
Man Gu saw the other party's scholar attire and, being a Confucian practitioner like himself, happily asked a question he had never been able to figure out, one that even the Fourth Elder couldn't answer: "Since 'Niang' and 'Ma' mean the same thing, can I call a 'Miss' (young lady) 'Guma' (aunt)?"
Shen Jinyi was stunned for a long time. With his forty years of life experience, he really didn't know what to say.
He had originally thought this seemingly simple examiner on the left was unremarkable and hadn't spoken, but he didn't expect him to hit him with a sap as soon as he spoke.
Shen Jinyi didn't directly say he couldn't, but said: "I am an assassin, not a Confucian practitioner."
"Assassin? Have you studied criminal law?" Lu Yang asked with great interest.
"Slightly studied," Shen Jinyi said modestly. In fact, he had studied criminal law very well; after all, to become an assassin, one had to study how to evade criminal law.
"Then let me ask you, the definition of the crime of intentional homicide in criminal law is 'intentionally depriving someone of their life constitutes this crime'."
"Then does suicide constitute the crime of intentional homicide?"
Shen Jinyi took a second sap.
Seeing Shen Jinyi couldn't answer, Lu Yang waved his hand in disappointment: "You can't even answer in your most proficient field. Go back."
In just five minutes, Shen Jinyi suffered the greatest setback of his life.
Was this a question a normal person could ask?
"Could it be that only people with thinking different from ordinary people can join the Demonic Sect?"
This entrance trial was of great importance, and the Branch Master had to preside over it personally to be at ease.
The Branch Master specially arrived half an hour early to prepare.
On the way to the test site, the Branch Master saw many fierce-looking people leaving one after another, muttering things like "The interview is really hard," "The Demonic Sect is not easy to join," "So this is the true essence of the demonic path," "I'll come back in thirty years," as if they had been baptized and had a sudden enlightenment.
The Branch Master fell into deep thought.
He hadn't arrived yet; who was presiding over the trial?
Then he saw Lu Yang and the other two, who were dominating the scene and pointing out the country. ===== CHAPTER 67 =====
