On this day, strange phenomena began to appear from the back mountain.
The spiritual energy rippled outwards, causing the great arrays in various places on the back mountain to manifest. The array patterns of various colors flickered and reflected a faint, multicolored light that illuminated the heavens and the earth.
Furthermore, a series of mysterious spiritual fluctuations arose here.
At first glance, it seems as if one has stumbled into some kind of fairyland or secret place.
This scene was breathtakingly beautiful, yet it also evoked a sense of mystery.
Every now and then, one or two powerful spiritual energy fluctuations would emerge, flashing with dazzling light from the back mountain, streaking across the sky and scattering among the caves around the main peak.
Like shooting stars, they continuously streaked across the sky.
After a brief flight, they finally landed within the array formations of a certain cave.
Upon closer inspection, through the dazzling light, one can see a rhombus-shaped crystal, resembling some mysterious treasure. It is as beautiful as crystal, crystal clear, with wisps of spiritual energy flowing within it, and its surface is covered with layers of intricate runes!
The disciples of the main peak all looked up, their eyes filled with envy.
Basically, this kind of scene will appear after the competition.
One by one, the elders bestowed jade crystals upon the disciples who had performed outstandingly in the competition.
The falling of the jade crystal signifies the status of a nominal disciple. Whether one will ultimately be formally accepted into the sect and become a personal disciple of an elder or deacon is another matter entirely.
This has almost become an unwritten rule.
After each major competition, jade crystals would inevitably fall.
Because there is a quota limit for elders and deacons in the sect, each person must contribute two to three jade crystals.
This is a core training method that accelerates the growth of future pillars of society and ensures the continuation of the sect's legacy.
After all, although the main peak has a trial tower, a training ground, various martial arts arenas, and a scripture pavilion, as one's cultivation level and attainments improve, the efficiency of this training method gradually decreases after a certain point.
For example, although Lin Xiuyuan was still in the early stages of his advancement, his mastery of talismanic arts had already reached the third level of the Trial Tower. The teachings at the training grounds were very broad, and his doubts could not be perfectly answered. Therefore, his comprehension speed slowed down at the beginning of the third level of the Trial Tower.
Then Wang Yangshan appeared and gave guidance, and the situation changed dramatically.
This significantly increased Lin Xiuyuan's comprehension speed, and his mastery of talismanic arts continued to improve rapidly.
Therefore, the elders and deacons were compelled to leave the jade crystals and receive personal guidance.
It's clear from Lin Xiuyuan's case that the difference between having a renowned teacher and not having one is quite obvious.
Although it is mandatory, it is a good way for the elders and deacons to obtain resources, and they are very happy about it.
As long as a disciple breaks through a realm or advances to a higher level in the Trial Tower during the period, they will be rewarded with a batch of contribution points. Upon graduation, the reward of contribution points will be even more abundant.
After all, the elders and deacons also need resources for cultivation. In the sect, contribution points are almost a currency that surpasses spirit stones.
This approach not only stabilizes the sect's leadership and ensures the continued growth of its core base, but also further cultivates its core elites, achieving two goals at once.
It can only be said that the cultivation systems of powerful forces with long histories are quite sophisticated.
Otherwise, how could it have been passed down for nearly ten thousand years!
Therefore, on this day, streams of jade crystals flew out.
Countless disciples cast envious glances at this; the difference between having a master and not having one is quite obvious.
All the disciples were very clear about this.
Not to mention, the fall of a jade crystal involves more than just the cultivation method; it also represents a profound background. In the cultivation world, one of the most solid relationships is the bond between master and disciple.
Seeing this scene, it's hard not to feel envious...
"As expected, Senior Brother Liu was ranked over 500th when he was in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. Now that he has broken through to the late-Foundation Establishment stage, his ranking on the main peak has improved even further, and he has even advanced to the third round of the competition. It is only natural that he can obtain a jade crystal."
"Hey, did Junior Brother Zhao, that newly promoted prodigy from Yunxiao, also lose some jade crystals?"
"Although it was somewhat unexpected, upon closer reflection it is normal. After all, he has only been out of the newcomer period for a few years, yet he has already achieved a good ranking in the competition. Although he has only advanced to the second round, his ranking on the main peak immediately jumped to the top 700. He has great potential. With his mentors looking up to him, it is normal for him to make a move early."
"In short, those who are able to receive the Jade Crystals are all exceptional individuals. The main peak is originally a gathering place for the most talented and elite individuals, and those who stand out are basically among the top talents. They will all be the future leaders of the Cloud Soaring Sect!"
"But the most outrageous one has to be this Junior Brother Lin, the prodigy of Lingxiao. I'm afraid we'll have to start calling him Senior Brother from now on, right?"
"How many jade crystals are there now? This is truly unheard of!"
"Hehe, what's so strange about that? That Lingxiao prodigy performed so brilliantly this time, he stood out from the crowd throughout the entire competition. If others didn't know, they might think that this Junior Brother Lin was the Yunxiao prodigy!"
"His combat power is truly monstrous, not to mention his talent in the Dao of Talismans, which is unparalleled in the Lingxiao lineage! Junior Brother Lin is a prodigy with the potential to reach the Golden Core stage!!"
"In this way, which elder or deacon would not be tempted? Who knows, they might even train a Golden Core cultivator in the future!"
"Such potential, such monstrous talent, I'd be fighting tooth and nail for the jade crystal too!!!"
As some disciples were watching the spectacle and discussing it, they saw three more jade crystals, like shooting stars, streak across the sky from the back of the mountain and land on a branch of the main peak in the southwest.
