As it was getting dark, the disciple selection finally ended. Wan Ge and the others were the last batch in ten years. After the selection, they would have to wait another ten years before recruiting new disciples again.
The elders of Lin Yuan Sect told everyone to pack up, and then led their disciples back to Lin Yuan Sect.
…
By the time they returned to Lin Yuan Sect, it was already dark. The newly recruited disciples hadn't even had time to be assigned lodgings when some rushed anxiously to the elders.
"Third Elder, I heard that the Sixth Elder of Chonghua Sect was seriously injured on the way back to the sect with his disciples."
"What's the situation now?" The Third Elder asked nervously. Although they would compete for disciples with exceptional talent when selecting them.
However, in a sense, both Chonghua Sect and Linyuan Sect are still friendly sects. In addition to comparing themselves with each other in cultivation and wanting their sects to flourish, they have a common enemy they want to fight against: the Demon Race.
So no matter how much they argue on the surface, apart from secretly challenging each other to duels and fighting for things in secret realms, disciples of the major sects normally don't fight. Moreover, they are forbidden from harming their fellow disciples, and their relationships aren't as bad as one might imagine.
"He was seriously injured and is currently in seclusion to recuperate. It will probably take him ten years to fully recover. The other disciples are well protected by the elders and are fine."
"That's good." The Third Elder breathed a sigh of relief. They were not enemies but friends, so he didn't want anything to happen to the other party.
When Wan Ge overheard their conversation, it confirmed what had happened in her dream.
In the dream, he chose the Chonghua Sect. The Sixth Elder of the Chonghua Sect saw his outstanding talent and originally wanted to bring him back to the sect to be properly trained.
Unexpectedly, I was ambushed and seriously injured on the way back. After returning, I went into seclusion. I was assigned to one of the elders because of my dual spiritual roots.
The elder has several disciples with celestial spiritual roots, so naturally, all sorts of good resources don't end up in her hands.
Although water and wood can complement each other, without good resources, dual spiritual root cultivation is indeed quite difficult. Therefore, compared to fellow disciples with heavenly spiritual roots who entered the sect at the same time, their cultivation progress is naturally slower.
Because of her slow progress in cultivation, she became increasingly neglected within the sect, which led her to admire the exceptionally talented male protagonist more and more, and to grow increasingly fond of him.
And because of this, they embarked on the path of cannon fodder.
This exceptionally talented male protagonist transmigrated to this world with a system. In addition to his outstanding talent and heavenly spiritual root, he also has the system as a cheat code.
Therefore, those who can become the male protagonist's women are basically either those with celestial spiritual roots or saintesses, or empresses.
Someone with a true spiritual root like the original owner only deserves to be cannon fodder in his world.
Besides not wanting to be cannon fodder, Wan Ge also didn't want to get close to the male lead. Although she admired strong men, she disliked philanderers completely.
If you know that the other person has a lot of wives and concubines, how could you possibly like him?
However, now that I have left the Chonghua Sect, I should not follow in their footsteps.
Moreover, even if the male lead appeared in front of her, knowing what kind of person he would become, she probably wouldn't like him, and she likely wouldn't end up with such a tragic fate as in her dream.
Wan Ge calmed herself down and followed the group to their temporary accommodations, where she went to rest early.
After all, the sect assignments will take place tomorrow, and I don't know if I'll be able to get a good master this time.
