The Clan Master Can’t possibly Be A Mortal
Chapter 1106 - 1106: The Assessment is Over

The crowd guessed correctly.

Ye Feng indeed wanted to recruit a group of specialized talents.

A disciple of a sect should not only cultivate and fight, but also understand alchemy, formations, talisman creation, cultivating spiritual medicines, taming beasts, refining tools, dual cultivation, and other skills.

Only in this way could the sect develop comprehensively.

Beside the mountain's stone steps.

At the twenty-third question point, dozens of young prodigies had gathered, all eagerly awaiting their turn.

They heard the ethereal figure ask:

"When setting up a formation, usually a main array eye and several auxiliary array eyes are needed. So, how do you arrange a formation without any array eyes, and what effects does such a formation have?"

Hearing this, the crowd turned and walked away.

"It's knowledge about formations!"

"Do you know it?"

"I don't either."

"Let's go, let's go."

As the prodigies shook their heads and ran up the mountain, they feared being surpassed by others.

Only a white-dressed maiden stood still calmly, waiting until everyone had left before speaking unhurriedly:

"I understand this question!"

"Most formations without array eyes are temporary or one-time formations."

"These formations are drawn out using array patterns, without setting array eyes that can absorb power and control the formation. Once the power inherent in the array patterns is depleted, they will automatically dissipate."

"Generally speaking."

"These formations are used for temporary defense against enemies, or for creating consumable talismans. When setting up, because there are no array eyes, the process is faster and more convenient, and uses fewer materials."

"Am I correct?"

The white-dressed girl looked at the ethereal figure with hopeful eyes.

Three breaths later.

"Congratulations, you are correct. You have been rewarded with a pair of White Radiance Wings that can last for two quarters of an hour!"

The ethereal figure reached out and inscribed a temporary formation in the air, which merged into the back of the white-dressed girl.

Swish!

A splendid pair of light wings appeared behind the white-dressed girl, making her as light as a swallow, capable of flying at a distance of one foot above the surface of the stone steps.

Although she could not fly straight upwards, at least she could increase her speed several times compared to before.

"Thank you!"

The white-dressed girl quickly thanked them and flapped her White Radiance Wings, her jade feet lightly touching the stone steps as she climbed upwards at great speed. In no time, she surpassed nearly a thousand people, reaching the sixth position.

"Someone has successfully answered a question again!"

"Envious!"

Many people looked up, watching the white-dressed girl fly by, their eyes filled with envy.

On the stone steps.

At another question point, the ethereal figure posed a question about managing a cultivator's trade association, which many people could not answer. But a yellow-dressed lad spoke with approximation.

Although he did not finish his answer, he also received a reward.

However, the reward effect was not great.

He was engulfed by a burst of light and shot upwards five hundred feet, instantly surpassing tens of thousands of people.

At the forefront.

A green-dressed girl kept running until she arrived at the seventy-fifth question point, looking towards the ethereal figure beside the stone steps.

"As cultivators, should we be cold and heartless?"

The ethereal figure posed the question.

The green-dressed girl looked down and saw the animal-skin skirt girl Wu Shu still running wildly, not yet caught up.

After thinking, the green-dressed girl said:

"In my opinion, cultivators are not cold and heartless puppets. We practice to make ourselves stronger, to live longer, not to become unfeeling."

"The heavens may have emotions, and the heavens too will age."

"But if people have emotions, they can make the human world rich and full."

"If cultivation to the highest realm would make me into a cold-hearted person who could even destroy close friends and loved ones, I would rather not cultivate and focus on nurturing spiritual medicines."

Having spoken, she didn't wait to see if she got any reward, and turned to run towards even higher stone steps.

The next moment.

A glow fell upon her, making the green-dressed girl lighter, enabling her to run twice as fast as before.

"Ah! Did I receive a reward?"

The green-dressed girl was surprised, not daring to waste the acceleration effect from the reward, and continued to run.

Misty Peak summit.

Ye Feng watched the accelerating green-dressed girl with a slight smile on his lips.

The others couldn't hear the green-dressed girl's answer, but he could hear it loud and clear.

"If a person is heartless, they are not human but a demon!"

Ye Feng said indifferently.

Not long after.

The second-ranked girl in an animal skin skirt, Wu Shu, also arrived at the seventy-fifth question point.

"As a cultivator, should one be cold and heartless?"

The illusory figure posed the question again.

"No!"

Wu Shu replied with a single word and then continued to run upwards, very decisively.

Each time she encountered the illusory figure next to the stone steps, she would listen to the question and answer accordingly, not concerning herself with whether she would receive any reward.

Whoosh!

A glow floated over and merged into Wu Shu, speeding her up just like the green-dressed girl.

"Is this all it takes to get a reward?"

Wu Shu's eyes widened in surprise.

Atop the peak.

Ye Feng watched Wu Shu's expression and couldn't help but laugh: "This girl has a forthright nature, very suitable for joining the Spirit Beast Hall."

When cultivating spiritual beasts, sincerity is needed.

Otherwise, it is very difficult to establish a bond with them.

Wu Shu, coming from a beast taming family, happened to have this kind of frank and straightforward character.

Further back.

Many people successively received rewards; some gained a boost in speed, others flew directly hundreds or thousands of zhang (a unit of length) upwards, instantly entering the front-running group.

Sect Main Plaza.

Someone looked towards one of the light screens and said:

"Look!"

"The Junior Sect Master of the Divine Medicine Sect, Ding Qingshu, is only the last thousand zhang from the summit, soon she'll be able to meet Sect Master Ye at the top."

Everyone's attention was drawn to that light screen.

The green-dressed Ding Qingshu was seen speeding rapidly, as if she had answered a few questions and received another boost, and in no time, she successfully stepped onto the last layer of stone stairs.

With that, the first place was born!

"Yay, here I come!"

The animal skin skirt-clad girl Wu Shu yelled loudly, her whole body bursting into crimson flames, her speed increasing several-fold, and she became the second person to reach the peak.

Immediately after.

A young man and woman, hand in hand with wind and clouds swirling around them, moved with incredible speed and became the third and fourth young prodigies to reach the peak.

As for the Junior Sect Master of Heavenly Pill Sect, he was overtaken by the young Dual Cultivation Companion pair from the Joyous Union Sect midway and placed fifth.

"Haha, here I come too!"

A youth wearing a red robe and metallic boots dashed to the peak, becoming the sixth Fifth Generation Disciple.

This person was the grandson of the Sect Master of the Ancient Instrument Sect; he answered a question related to artifact refining and received a pair of Mountaineering Spirit Boots.

After that, more people successively reached the top.

"Haha, my daughter took first place, it looks like she's bound to be the big senior sister among Misty Sect's Fifth Generation Disciples, fellow daoists, this Sect Master offers his respects!"

The Sect Master of the Divine Medicine Sect gently stroked his beard and then took out a large amount of Mystical Elixirs, distributing them to the spectators around.

"What a good person the Sect Master is!"

The crowd, having received the benefits, all spoke highly of him.

"Our beast taming family's Junior Master Wu Shu took second place, becoming the Second Senior Sister, which is also worth celebrating!" a burly man wearing animal skin shorts and bare-chested laughed aloud.

Saying so, he took out various materials.

Some were horns of spiritual beasts, some were scales, and some were spiritual liquids secreted by spiritual beasts, handing them out to the people around.

"To celebrate the son and daughter-in-law of the Joyous Union Sect joining Misty Sect, anyone who joins our Joyous Union Sect, we offer husbands for the women and wives for the men!"

An Elder from the Joyous Union Sect shouted out loud.

"I want to join the Joyous Union Sect!"

For a moment, numerous cultivators were greatly excited.

In the high skies.

Gong Qingqiu watched the Sect Master of the Divine Medicine Sect, the Elder of the Joyous Union Sect, and others dispersing wealth without stopping them but tacitly allowing it.

After all, the descendants of these older generation figures joining Misty Sect made them allies.

Maintaining good relationships was necessary.
