Chapter 2239 - 2242: Making Things Difficult

The dozen or so people outside filed in.

These people, some looked very young, some appeared with white hair and youthful features, with both men and women, each possessing an extraordinary demeanor.

As they entered the great hall, everyone who had been waiting inside stood up.

Undoubtedly, these people should be the Elders and Immortal Venerables of Xuanyuan Immortal Sect that the servant mentioned earlier.

A total of twelve people came in, led by an elderly man with white hair, but his appearance was that of someone in their forties or fifties, a typical case of white hair and youthful features.

"The ones below are all disciples who entered with the Silver Token, everyone, have a look. I'm not sure who issued the Silver Tokens back then, claim them yourselves. If no one claims them, we can continue tomorrow. If by tomorrow morning no one claims them, you'll participate in the final selection."

The white-haired Elder spoke straightforwardly, his gaze sweeping over the eight people in the hall, including Qin Tian.

Seeing no one speaking, he took the lead, "I'll go first. Yang Shihao, from now on, you will be my Inner Sect disciple."

The white-haired Elder directly eyed a man standing in front, wearing golden and luxurious clothes.

The man had a regal aura; from his appearance, even if he came from a lower realm, he must have been a ruler there.

"Thank you, Master! From now on, I will not fail to live up to your teachings and will bring glory to our Xuanyuan Immortal Sect!"

Yang Shihao knew that the Law Enforcement Elder was Mo Ziyang, and they seemed to be familiar with each other. Seeing this, Qin Tian knew that today's Inner Sect disciple selection was probably just a formality, as these people already knew the Elders.

With this in mind, Qin Tian immediately felt a sense of urgency.

Oh no, he doesn't know anyone!

His gaze swept over the twelve seated Elders in front, and his heart sank halfway.

He certainly didn't know these Elders. Now, his only hope was that Shenyue had greeted some Elder beforehand to take him in.

It's truly pitiful. Qin Tian felt that as the Emperor Qin of the Spiritual Domain, reaching this point was absurd.

"Xiao Qingyun, from now on, you're also my disciple."

"Thank you, Master!"

"Guo Tianren, I've had my eye on you for a long time. Hmm, you indeed came with the Silver Token. Henceforth, you'll enroll under my tutelage."

"Thank you, Master!"

...

After Mo Ziyang Elder began, the other Elders didn't hide anything either, immediately starting to claim disciples.

In less than ten minutes, the eight people present, except for Qin Tian, were all claimed by the Elders.

The hall was left with Qin Tian standing alone.

As the curious gazes of everyone turned to Qin Tian, he couldn't help but feel awkward.

"Did Shenyue call me here without arranging anything?"

Qin Tian was annoyed.

"What's the name of that person below?"

Seeing Qin Tian, unclaimed, Mo Ziyang, one of the three great Elders of Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, asked, "Where did your Silver Token come from?"

Qin Tian remembered that Shenyue had instructed him not to say the Silver Token was given by him.

Shenyue must have had deeper intentions, so at this moment, he kept silent and lowered his head without answering.

"Haha, unwilling to speak, huh?"

An Elder with a scar on his face, who was beside Mo Ziyang, stared at Qin Tian and sneered, "If you don't want to talk, then today that's it. Come back tomorrow, and if you're still unclaimed, you'll have to join the selection… Heh, I see your cultivation, joining the selection, you'd be struggling even as an Outer Disciple!"

After the scar-faced Elder's reminder, everyone then focused their attention on Qin Tian.

These people, especially the Elders seated in front, all had much higher cultivation than Qin Tian.

With a scrutinizing look, it seemed they could see through Qin Tian, and many immediately saw through his cultivation.

"Oh? Peak of the Flying Immortal Realm? Haha..."

"Who exactly gave him the Silver Token?"

"Indeed. Each Elder has one Silver Token, who's so careless to give it to a kid at the peak of the Flying Immortal Realm?"

"Insane... Peak of the Flying Immortal Realm… Haha, isn't this destroying our Xuanyuan Immortal Sect."

"Heartless. This kid has no exceptional qualities, I'm really curious who gave him the Silver Token."

The Elders, looking down from above, were mocking one after another upon discovering Qin Tian's cultivation.

Indeed, with a peak of Flying Immortal Realm cultivation, there was probably no one present with a lower cultivation than Qin Tian.

But upon hearing these mocking voices, Qin Tian was still angry.

Back when he first arrived in the Spiritual Domain, he faced all kinds of mockery. Now, just entering the Immortal Domain, he has to face mockery again?

Infuriating!

Qin Tian pursed his lips, smiled faintly, and turned to leave.

"So unruly? Who told you you could leave?"

Mo Ziyang frowned, seeing that Qin Tian was disregarded by everyone and was leaving without any warning, he immediately questioned Qin Tian.

"Quickly return, bow, and apologize, then you can leave. Otherwise, today you must hand over your Silver Token, hmph, although our Xuanyuan Immortal Sect is declining, we're not at the point where anyone can become an Inner Sect disciple!"

Seeing that Qin Tian was acting alone, Mo Ziyang's tone was tough, carrying a hint of threat towards Qin Tian.

Damn!

Do you think I'd willingly come to Xuanyuan Immortal Sect?

If it weren't for my promise to Shenyue, I wouldn't be here!

Qin Tian looked up, angrily glancing at Mo Ziyang.

"You choose, hand over the Silver Token, and I can let you off, allowing you to become an Outer Disciple, how about it?"

Mo Ziyang attempted to coerce and seduce Qin Tian.

Despite being strangers, Mo Ziyang's stance was also a warning to the other Elders present, not to casually give away the Silver Tokens due to some profit.

Stalemate.

Qin Tian was holding the Silver Token, at a deadlock.

To go head to head, just arrived, he'd definitely suffer against these Xuanyuan Immortal Sect people.

Additionally, he had a poor impression of Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, from the discriminatory signs about non-sect members having to walk up the mountain, since arriving, he had no good feelings.

So, he was now conflicted.

Shenyue had good intentions, even gave him a Silver Token.

But sadly, fate didn't align him with Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, it's not that he was breaking his promise.

"Fine... I'll hand over the Silver Token."

Qin Tian smiled slightly, prepared to hand over the Silver Token, walking forward while saying, "I won't do the Outer Disciple either. I'll just leave..."

"Hahaha... I came late, I came late..."

As Qin Tian was about to hand over the Silver Token, a laughter suddenly came from outside the great hall.

Then, Qin Tian turned around to see, a slow-moving old man walking in from beyond the great hall.
