Chapter 353 Impossible! How can the sect leader be a woman?
Xiao Tang shook her head, "I don't need to, it's not appropriate."
She is definitely not suitable.
As a married woman, and the Regent's wife, it's impossible for her to take on disciples.
Of course, she would be willing to accept a little boy or girl who is five or six years old.
Her eyes flashed, and she asked Sect Master Xuan, "What are your standards for accepting disciples here?"
"One in a hundred," the Xuan Sect Master replied solemnly.
"Um... how old?"
“There is no age limit. As long as the child is talented, we will definitely admit them. But if the child is mediocre, then we naturally cannot accept them.”
Xiao Tang was speechless.
"Can the sect leader determine someone's aptitude based on just one meeting?"
This is utterly absurd.
Someone like her, no one could have seen her talent when she was young.
However, she figured it all out on her own.
Judging from appearances, the old man Xuanzong doesn't seem like a powerful master of metaphysics; at least for now, Xiao Tang really couldn't tell.
She stared intently at Sect Master Xuan, scrutinizing him from head to toe.
Knowing he was being questioned, Sect Master Xuan was indeed not happy, but he still politely said, "Your Highness, you may not know, but there is only one enrollment spot each year."
"This is an order from my master. If I don't choose the one with the most talent, I will definitely be expelled from the sect by my master."
Xiao Tang didn't criticize him, but only questioned him.
I never expected that this Sect Master Xuan would be so sensitive.
She clicked her tongue: "Sect Master, there's no need to rush to explain. I'm just here to join in the fun. You can go ahead and... go ahead and take on disciples, hehe."
She was still thinking about how to wait for the big villain to come back and settle accounts with him tonight.
The medicine has been taken.
It takes time for the body to completely expel the poison.
But two days was something she hadn't expected; it actually took so long.
The system did not provide any further dating tasks.
She can only pass the time here...
A long line had formed outside the manor gate, all of them coming up the mountain to become disciples.
Xiao Tang was led by Huang Xiaoya to sit down on the viewing platform.
She looked at the arena in front of her and asked Huang Xiaoya, "Are you guys still going to fight?"
Huang Xiaoya nodded, "It's not really like that. Our master will summon an evil spirit, and then... that evil spirit will be trapped in the small space of the arena. Those who go on the arena to participate in the assessment must deal with the evil spirit."
"Are you sure... that evil spirit won't possess you?"
This method of selecting apprentices is really quite time-consuming...
Huang Xiaoya patted her chest calmly, "Sect Leader, you may not know this, but we select people this way every year. Master must have his reasons for doing so."
"Moreover, if someone is possessed, Master has a way to force the evil spirit back."
Xiao Tang paused slightly.
That's not a big deal, but deliberately summoning evil spirits, and doing it once a year...
If one day a top-tier evil spirit is summoned, the Xuan Sect Master alone might not be able to defeat it.
That's really risky.
It's very dangerous.
She didn't say anything about this to Huang Xiaoya.
When selecting disciples, the people sitting in the stands around were very nervous.
The Xuanzong Master was also on high alert.
Huang Xiaoya added, "We always do this when we summon evil spirits, so the sect leader doesn't need to worry."
Xiao Tang tugged at the corner of her lips.
She won't worry.
She just felt...
Since you know this method is too risky, why do you still do it?
There are countless ways to do things, but why choose one that's suicidal?
The hundred people who came to become disciples were truly from all walks of life, men and women, young and old, fat and thin, tall and short, all sorts of people.
The first person to enter the arena was a handsome young man.
The boy was dressed in a clean white shirt.
She looked to be about seventeen years old.
On the arena, Xiao Tang clearly saw the evil spirit emerging from the ground, ferocious and baring its fangs.
He glanced sideways at Sect Master Xuan, who was forming hand seals and chanting incantations.
Upon closer inspection, Xiao Tang discovered that he was holding a fragment of a malevolent stone in his palm.
So that's what it was all about.
After all, the Xuan Sect Master was a highly skilled cultivator, capable of manipulating a piece of ominous jade.
The problem is...
Even if it can be controlled, what if it goes out of control one day...?
Xiao Tang stared at the black stone in his hand, her brows furrowed.
When the sect leader saw her looking over, he smiled and said, "Your Highness must recognize this, but I can control it, so there's no need to worry too much."
Are you sure?
He calmly nodded in response to Xiao Tang's question.
“I’m absolutely certain that I’ve been using it to summon evil spirits for several days now.”
Xiao Tang nodded knowingly, but looking at the stone in his palm, she didn't think so.
She had already reached into her sleeve and pulled out her talisman.
Waiting to make a move at any time.
It seems that the old man is about to lose control of that stone.
The young man was the first to strike and shatter the evil spirit.
Because Xiao Tang's attention was focused on Sect Master Xuan, she didn't notice how the young man had done it.
Sect Master Xuan was astonished, "This young man has amazing talent!"
The young man jumped off the stage, his gaze suddenly falling on Xiao Tang's face.
Xiao Tang felt that his appearance was somewhat familiar...
Ruyi muttered, "Your Highness, don't you think this child looks somewhat like the Emperor of Western Qin?"
Upon hearing Ruyi's mention, Xiao Tang was truly astonished.
really.
