Lin Yi couldn’t help but sigh. This was the same situation as when they first came to Sky Class Island, but they only joined the welcoming Pavilion and asked to break through to Foundation within a year. He didn’t think that the ancient Alliance would do the same thing now. It would be a miracle if these two places didn’t have a deep connection.

Hearing Xin Yijie’s words, all of the cultivators from the secular world had different expressions. Some were eager to try, while others were frowning. No matter how one looked at it, breaking through to the foundation establishment stage in ten and a half months was not an easy task. However, no matter what, what Xin Yijie had said was true. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

“Alright, I’ll take you all to a good place. Please follow the senior brothers of your respective sects. When you arrive at the destination, they will teach you a basic cultivation method. If you have any doubts or questions, you can ask them. Let’s go.” Xin Yijie nodded at Lin Yi and led the group to the back of the hall, where the ancient passageway’s teleportation formation was.

“Could the place you mentioned be in the small Jianghu of the immemorial era?” Lin Yi couldn’t help but ask.

“Senior granduncle, you’ve misunderstood. Although this teleportation formation is part of the immemorial passage, the other end isn’t connected to the immemorial Jianghu. Instead, it’s a very special transit point.” Xin Yijie replied.

“Oh?” Lin Yi raised his eyebrows-this was unexpected.

“Alright, the senior brothers of each sect will be responsible for the teleportation. The teleportation will be carried out in batches according to the sect. As for the spiritual jades required for the teleportation, they will naturally be responsible for it. Let’s begin.” Xin Yijie said to the crowd.

In principle, there were no restrictions on the number of disciples of each ancient sect in this disciple selection meeting. However, it did not mean that the more people they could choose, the better. The more people they teleported, the more spiritual jades they would need to consume. For example, the snow sword sect had chosen four prospective disciples at once. Including Xue Jianfeng, the senior brother in charge of the teleportation, they would need to consume ten spiritual jades, which was not a small amount.

So as long as it wasn’t a sect that was so rich that they had nowhere to spend their spirit Jade, basically, the ancient sects had very high standards for their selection. Not only did they need to have the right aptitude, but they also needed to have enough strength. Otherwise, if they couldn’t break through to the foundation establishment stage within ten and a half months, it would still be useless. It was rare for cultivators from the secular world to be able to have thirty-three people remain from the first round of selection.

As he waited, Lin Yi chatted with these practitioners. After all, many of these people were from familiar sects, such as the Ice Palace, Snow Valley, Dark Palace, and so on. Even if they weren’t close, Lin Yi still had to give them some advice for the sake of these sects.

Of course, not all the sects in the secular world were on good terms with Lin Yi. The disciples of the five elements sect, for example, had very complicated feelings towards Lin Yi. They were once against him, but now they had to bow their heads to Lin Yi because of the situation. Otherwise, Lin Yi could remove their entire sect from the sect by himself.

Not to mention that Lin Yi was now the leader of all the forces in the secular world. Being Lin Yi’s enemy was the same as being the enemy of all the forces in the secular world, and even the ancient Alliance. Don’t forget that he was Xin Yijie’s grand uncle-master! Just thinking about it was enough to make people shudder.

Seeing Lin Yi chatting happily with the disciples of the Ice Palace and Snow Valley, the others couldn’t help but feel awkward. They wanted to hug Lin Yi’s leg, but what if he ignored them?

However, when some people got closer, they realized that Lin Yi didn’t reject them at all. He taught the people of the Ice Palace and Snow Valley some cultivation techniques and experiences, and he didn’t mean to hide them from the common world practitioners. It didn’t matter if they were from opposing sects or families, he treated them the same. Even if they asked questions, he would patiently answer them.

To put it bluntly, it was a matter of level. If it was before he went to Sky Class Island, Lin Yi might have been a bit biased, but now the forces of the secular world, including the five elements sect, were no different from the other sects in Lin Yi’s eyes. As an early stage xuansheng master, it would be too calculative to take this to heart.

With that, the thirty-three people who passed the first round all gathered around Lin Yi. It was a rare opportunity to listen to the experiences of a master up close, especially when the other party was a monster like Lin Yi. A simple word of advice from him could be worth ten years of hard work-it wouldn’t come again after this village.

Everyone was listening with great interest. Lin Yi didn’t hide anything from them-as long as it didn’t involve his hidden cards, he’d basically answer all the questions. With his early-mystique Ascension cultivation, answering Foundation-level questions was like hitting the nail on the head.

Many times, even Xin Yijie, who was sitting beside Lin Yi, couldn’t help but click his tongue in wonder. He was an early golden core practitioner, but his knowledge and experience were far inferior to Lin Yi ‘S. Lin Yi’s words were mainly targeted at Foundation Stage cultivators, but even he could benefit a lot from them.

“As expected of a martial granduncle who has existed since the ancient times. Even though he’s only at the perfected Foundation establishment stage because he’s only a primordial soul cultivator, his knowledge and experience might not even be comparable to the Grand Supreme elder ‘s.” Xin Yijie sighed to himself. He’d already been sure of Lin Yi’s identity, and now he was even more certain. There were many things that could be faked and lied about, but this background was something that couldn’t be lied to.

Xin Yijie was sighing to himself, but the other sect leaders couldn’t stand it anymore. This was only the first round, and the practitioners they’d chosen could only be considered prospective disciples-it was still unknown if they’d be able to stay in the future, but they were still from their sect! If anyone wanted to ask for advice, they’d have to go to them-why did they all go to Lin Yi?

“Hehe, since President Lin is so helpful, why don’t you just teach our sect’s entry level cultivation method as well?” Xue Jianfeng didn’t know what to do-he still hadn’t gotten over what he’d said. Even if he couldn’t make Lin Yi suffer any substantial losses, he’d at least taunt him a little to get back at him.

As soon as he said that, the senior brothers of the other sects frowned and said in dissatisfaction,””Uncle-master Xin, this Lin Yi is from your green cloud sect, isn’t it a bit against the rules to try and recruit a prospective disciple like this?”

“That’s right, if he’s right, then we can still take it as him saying this out of good intentions, but martial uncle Xin, listen to what he’s saying, his understanding of the Foundation Stage is a complete mess, isn’t he deliberately misleading the disciples? These prospective disciples originally have no concept of the Foundation Stage. If they really listen to his crooked words, I think they can’t even reach the Foundation Stage, what future do they have? your northern island’s Green cloud School can’t be deliberately making our sects unable to recruit new disciples, right?” The snow sword struck while the iron was hot.
