It has been almost half a year since the Dao Dao Ceremony, and the new disciples have settled into a stable rhythm of life in Dao Jian Men. Those who should practice cultivation, those who should slack off, those who should explore adventures, those who should hunt for treasures, in short, they have officially started their life of cultivating immortals.
In this world, there are always very few geniuses, very few hard-working people, very few smart people, but many stupid people, many idle people, and many gossiping people... These are all just lazy people.
They will rank each class of disciples, either by beauties or geniuses, such as the five most stunning beauties from Daojian Sect this class.
While they ranked the five most beauties, they also ranked the ten most talented people.
As to whether Daojianmen officials participated in these rankings, it is difficult to say.
But at least, these ten geniuses are very valuable. Each of them is a gifted being and will at least be a Nascent Soul stage monster in the future. They even have the hope of participating in the Lingnan Immortal Sect's Immortal Spirit Trial and thus becoming part of the Lingnan Immortal Sect.
Indeed, few people question this ranking.
Generally speaking, these ten geniuses are basically the first ten candidates who knock on the door of Tao three years later.
For Daojianmen, the distribution of these ten people is also reasonable, four from the main peak, three from the Qi peak, and three from the Jian peak. It is not clear whether there is any deliberate...official deliberateness.
“Why isn’t there one at Danfeng?”
In the main peak square, Li Shiyin was wandering around with Zhuifeng when they overheard a group of people talking about the top ten geniuses. She couldn't help but ask Zhuifeng about this.
Zhuifeng shook his big head. He was just a little cat weighing several hundred pounds. How could he understand these things?
"There should be two at Danfeng. Someone as powerful as me must be a genius! And you, Benhu, are even more powerful than me, so you must be a genius..."
Li Shiyin was very confident. She hooked her fingers and calculated for Dan Zhuifeng, "When Qiqi builds her foundation, she will also be a genius. We should have three geniuses in Danfeng!"
Thinking about it this way, Danfeng clearly has three geniuses, but none of them are on the list. She was very upset and said angrily, "No, I have to ask who ranked the geniuses, why even my name is not on the list..."
She led Zhuifeng towards the crowd, but before they got there, she heard someone inside say, "Alas, what a pity for Huang Feiyu."
Senior Brother Huang? She paused and listened.
The man sighed and said, "He was originally ranked in the top five Jianfeng Tianjiao, and his sword was so powerful that it could roar over mountains and rivers. Who would have thought that he would be injured by the Lionheart Wild Flame Beast and lose his life."
Senior Brother Huang is actually in the top five?! Li Shiyin was shocked. Is Huang Feiyu that good? He is only 50-50 with her!
"This is the world of cultivation..." someone continued, "You never know which will come first, opportunity or death."
"But I heard that Huang Feiyu was cured and his cultivation was restored..." Someone else gave the "latest" news.
"But..." Li Shiyin suddenly reacted and looked at Zhuifeng with big eyes, "Senior Brother Huang and I are from the same class?"
Zhuifeng looked at her with a pair of even bigger eyes, which were filled with even more doubts... How could he possibly know?
"Senior Brother Huang is already in the Jindan stage, and he's actually in the same class as me... and he's only in the top five!" Li Shiyin nodded, "It seems that this list is indeed quite interesting."
In Daojian Sect, what counts as disciples from the same class?
To be precise, it starts from the end of the previous session of knocking on the door before the Tao and ends with the end of this session of knocking on the door before the Tao. During the fifty years in between, all the disciples who enter the mountain gate are considered to be from the same session.
According to this theory, the maximum difference in practice time among disciples of the same class is fifty years.
In other words, it is entirely possible that some disciples of the same class have already formed an infant while others have not yet sensed the Qi.
Yes, in addition to the Dao Dao Ceremony held every fifty years, Dao Jian Sect would also accept disciples every fifty years. However, this kind of acceptance was not public, but was done privately by the elders, chiefs, deacons, and masters of the sect who were qualified to accept disciples.
It is equivalent to being specially recruited into the sect, and as soon as you come in, you become a direct disciple.
For example, Qin Ran and Huang Feiyu both entered the mountain gate in this way.
When his master was out looking for alchemy materials, Qin Ran took a liking to him and accepted him as his personal disciple. Huang Feiyu's situation was probably not much different.
So, strictly speaking, not only Huang Feiyu is considered a disciple of this class, but also Qin Ran...
If Qin Ran had to swallow his pride and attend the Daoist knocking ceremony three years later, that would be in accordance with the rules.
Li Shiyin stood there and thought for a while. Although she felt that this list had some rationality, it was precisely because of this that there was not a single Danfeng disciple on it. That was too embarrassing.
It is up to Li Shiyin to fight for Danfeng's cards.
The people here were still talking, and someone said, "I wonder who will be the new prodigy after Huang Feiyu drops out of the top ten prodigies."
"I still hope it's a disciple of Jianfeng..." said a passerby who was obviously a disciple of Jianfeng. "I'm just a passerby. I think Jianfeng's fighting power is the best among Daojianmen."
"It may not be Jianfeng!" Another passerby from Qifeng shook his head, "It is said that there is a senior brother in Qifeng who practices the Five Thunders Law. He has recently made great progress in thunder magic and said that the position of the genius will definitely be his."
"My Senior Brother Dugu Wenxue from Jianfeng found an ancient inheritance at the beginning of the year. It is said that it contains the sword intent of the Demon Slayer Sword Ancestor who slayed the Demons 30,000 years ago... I saw Senior Brother Dugu at Jianfeng yesterday. The demonic aura of Senior Brother was so strong that people dared not look directly at him. I feel that he is far from the strength of a Jindan cultivator."
The passerby at Jianfeng objectively stated the facts, "I think this position of genius must belong to Senior Brother Dugu..."
Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt someone patting his shoulder, and then a clear female voice asked him: "Excuse me, senior brother, who ranked these ten geniuses?"
He turned around and saw a lovely girl with chubby face. She was cute, pure and heroic. He was stunned for a moment.
"Hey! Senior brother, can you hear me?" The girl frowned beautifully.
"Oh!" He turned around, quietly wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and replied, "I heard it... I heard it...
"These ten great prodigies were ranked by Senior Brother Dong Zhongyuan from the main peak. It's very fair and reasonable... Senior Brother Dong himself is one of the ten great prodigies."
"You rank yourself and you think it's fair? You're even more shameless than the master..." Li Shiyin pouted and asked, "Do you know where he is now?"
"I saw him just now..." The man looked around the square, raised his hand and pointed, saying, "Over there, Senior Brother Dong is teaching the Jiang sisters magic."
Li Shiyin looked over there and saw a handsome young man in brocade clothes and waving a fan, smiling and talking to two little lolis who looked exactly the same, delicate and pretty.
"It's him, right?" Li Shiyin confirmed and walked straight towards Dong Zhongyuan.
The passerby at Jianfeng saw Li Shiyin turn around and walk away, then he came to his senses and asked hurriedly, "May I ask your name, Junior Sister?"
Before Li Shiyin could answer, a half-grown white tiger ran over from the side, heard what he said, and bared its teeth at him, scaring him so much that he didn't dare to wait for an answer any longer.
"Danfeng, Li Shiyin!" But the girl suddenly gave him the answer, raised the sword in her hand with her back to him, and shouted, "The next genius!"
