Chapter 51: Chapter 51 Old-timer Recruitment
"So this is the Jade Cauldron Sect, truly majestic!"
"No wonder they look down on us, compared to this place, our Desolate Sky City is basically a beggar’s nest..."
"Is this really where we’re going to live from now on? This is practically a fairytale land!"
After the Flying Boat arrived at the Jade Cauldron Sect, it slowly docked at the sect’s Flying Boat station, and then the crowd orderly made their way to the plaza in front of the sect.
The buildings before them were either constructed from Golden Nanmu Wood or carved from Gold Diamond Jade, and the high-rises were at least a hundred meters tall, reaching straight into the clouds and touching the sky, leaving them clueless about how those towers were even built.
This time, it wasn’t just Lin Chen and the others from Desolate Sky City who were shocked by the grandeur of the Jade Cauldron Sect, but also people from other towns.
Around the plaza, many disciples of the Jade Cauldron Sect, dressed in the same blue robes, were sizing up these new arrivals.
Undoubtedly, those people possessed Cultivation beyond the Spirit Gathering Realm.
They looked at the newcomers as if seeing their past selves.
Seeing these senior disciples, the newcomers nodded and offered their respects.
The senior disciples stood up straighter with pride, as their vanity was greatly satisfied.
It must be known that within the Jade Cauldron Sect, they were only the lowest-level Outer Sect disciples.
These newcomers might, after some time, become Inner Sect disciples or even True Disciples, and by then, they would have to address them as junior brothers.
The Martial Path has never been about seniority based on time, but rather on the strength of one’s Cultivation, with the accomplished acting as masters.
At this moment, Lin Chen’s heart was overwhelmed by the impressive architecture before him.
He then looked around, searching for any cauldron-shaped buildings, remembering Yu Weilian’s words.
However, that Jade Cauldron was naturally not something that could be so easily discovered, as it was the founding treasure of the Jade Cauldron Sect and must have been hidden away.
"What do you think, out of the two hundred or so newcomers this year, how many will become Inner Sect disciples? How many will become True Disciples?"
"I guess at most only about ten will become Inner Sect disciples, it’s not so easy to get into the Inner Sect. As for True Disciple, it’s been many years since any newcomers achieved that rank, I wonder if there will be any heavenly talents this year."
"I heard that among these newcomers, there are people from the Baili Clan, with Baili Wentian having directly become a True Disciple in the past. I wonder if this person from the Baili Clan has such talent."
"The Baili Clan is a noble family of the Great Flame Dynasty; their talents are surely extraordinary. Even if he doesn’t become a True Disciple, securing an Inner Sect disciple spot is definitely within reach."
The group of senior disciples were busily discussing, their gazes lingering on a youth in white.
Lin Chen had heard of the reputation of the Baili Clan in the past; as one of the top ten noble families of the Great Flame Dynasty, everyone from the Baili Family was said to be exceptionally outstanding.
From a distance, Baili Chuifeng heard the surrounding discussions and couldn’t help but curl his lips in pleasure, his vanity greatly satisfied.
With the backing of the Baili Clan’s name, he shone brightly wherever he went.
Baili Chuifeng was enjoying the adulation when suddenly, he turned his head and his mood plummeted.
Right next to him was a country bumpkin looking at him.
How could a mere Martial Artist in the Body Tempering Realm even stand next to him?
Baili Chuifeng realized that Lin Chen wanted to get closer to him to draw the attention of others.
He had seen such petty means used by many despicable people in the past, simply to steal some limelight.
"You low-level Body Tempering Realm waste, roll farther away."
Baili Chuifeng looked at Lin Chen with a face full of disdain.
At this moment, Lin Chen was certainly not as Baili Chuifeng imagined; he was merely looking for buildings shaped like the Jade Cauldron and just happened to walk beside Baili Chuifeng.
Lin Chen had no desire to associate too much with someone like Baili Chuifeng, who was as mad as a dog that bites anyone it sees. He immediately headed towards the distance, continuing his search for cauldron-shaped buildings.
"Recruitment, Tongji Hall is recruiting! New junior brothers, are you interested in joining our Tongji Hall? Once you join, we are all family. In the Outer Sect, we can look out for each other, and from time to time, senior brothers and sisters will teach Martial Path knowledge oh."
"Rainbow Hall is recruiting! We only accept female disciples, no men please. Little junior sister, you are really charming, would you consider joining?"
"Duan Shan Hall’s recruitment is here, contrary to Rainbow Hall, we are all hefty guys. Join us, and we can drink heartily, eat meat in big bites, and scrub each other’s backs, how about it, little brother?"
Soon after the new students had just arrived at the plaza, a group of senior students suddenly emerged from the mountains, holding various fancy signs, and started recruiting among the new students.
If it weren’t for the magnificent buildings overhead, people might think they were in a bustling market of the secular world.
And those senior students were not recruiting just anyone; they specifically targeted those with cultivation in the Spirit Gathering Realm.
For someone like Lin Chen in the Body Tempering Realm, they rarely inquired.
Indeed, no matter where one goes, it is always about strength.
As a member of the Baili Clan, Baili Chuifeng naturally received recruitment offers from almost all of the various halls, with endless flattering and boot-licking that kept coming, greatly satisfying the vanity in his heart.
However, Baili Chuifeng politely refused all these group invitations.
In Jade Cauldron Sect, there are many alliances formed among disciples, but the groups that come recruiting new students right away are not strong within the Sect.
On the contrary, they are weaker groups in Jade Cauldron Sect. Hence, they are not picky and recruit indiscriminately without fully understanding everyone’s strengths, with cultivation being the only criterion.
To put it bluntly, these groups are just recruiting free labor.
After joining a group, there will be many restrictions and demands, nominally to protect you and to help each other.
But the real help you can get, they will not share any resources with you. Instead, they perpetually entice you with promises, yet you need to continually contribute resources to the group.
In the end, the ones who benefit are often just those at the top of the group.
When Baili Chuifeng arrived at the Jade Cauldron Sect, his brother had written to him, informing him of everything about the Sect and advising him not to join any of the groups that actively recruit new members.
The truly powerful groups within the Jade Cauldron Sect are not so easy to enter; one must go through numerous tests to join.
Currently, Lin Chen had not received any invitations from those groups, nor did he have any interest in joining.
He had always been used to freedom and was unwilling to be constrained.
"Junior sister, our Qing Yi Hall is the strongest. Would you consider joining us?"
