8: The Qingyun Sect opened a new sect and accepted disciples, shocking the area thousands of miles away.

Inside Qingyun City,

On a bustling street, people came and went, and Wang Dadan followed Jiang Xiaobai with a mournful expression.

Having just been tricked into joining the Qingyun Sect, he was extremely unwilling, but Jiang Xiaobai told him that once the Azure Cloud Illustrated Book was signed, he would be bound to the Sect forever, unable to betray or leave it.

The thought of the Qingyun Sect's decrepit state made him wish he could die.

"I say, Fatty, you don't have to be so dejected. Believe me, in less than three years, the prestige of our Qingyun Sect will resound throughout the Southern Region."

The Tianxuan World is divided into five major regions – East, South, West, North, and Central – and a vast, boundless sea. The Southern Region alone spans tens of millions of square kilometers.

"Resound throughout the Southern Region? I'm afraid I won't even live to see it resound within a hundred li radius."

"Fatty, you need to have faith in me."

"It's not about whether I have faith in you. It's that the Qingyun Sect has already been delisted. To re-establish a Sect and recruit Disciples, we must get approval from those major powers. Otherwise... I'm afraid we'll be dead before we even recruit a few Disciples." Wang Dadan's face was filled with worry.

Jiang Xiaobai was stunned after hearing this, his eyes narrowing slightly:

"There's such a thing?"

"No way, you didn't even know that, and you dared to establish a Sect and recruit Disciples? I'm truly impressed by you, old trickster."

Jiang Xiaobai indeed didn't know. He had originally planned to set up a stall and recruit some Disciples, but with this turn of events, how was he supposed to recruit?

After a long period of contemplation, Jiang Xiaobai's lips curved into a smile:

"Never mind, let's first figure out a way to recruit thousands or tens of thousands of Disciples."

"What!? You still want to recruit Disciples? Don't drag me into it if you're suicidal!" Wang Dadan looked terrified, wishing he could run away immediately.

"Don't just stand there dumbfounded, hurry up and set up a stall with me to recruit Disciples." After speaking, Jiang Xiaobai immediately took out the banner and a table and chair he had already prepared and started setting up.

Seeing this, Wang Dadan's chubby face twitched uncontrollably, his expression utterly bewildered:

"You're really establishing a Sect and recruiting Disciples? It's over, it's over."

"Stop babbling, take this, and start shouting according to what's written on it." Jiang Xiaobai handed Wang Dadan a piece of paper and a simple wooden megaphone.

After taking the items from Jiang Xiaobai's hand, Wang Dadan was bewildered again:

"What is this thing?"

Facing Wang Dadan's question, Jiang Xiaobai said:

"You put your mouth to this small opening, then sink your Qi to your Dantian, and shout according to what's written on the paper."

Upon hearing this, Wang Dadan immediately looked at the words on the paper: "Qingyun Sect is establishing a Sect and recruiting Disciples. Any Disciple who successfully joins the Qingyun Sect will be rewarded with 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones."

Buzz!

After Wang Dadan finished reading the note, his head immediately buzzed, and his face was blank:

"100,000... Top-Grade Spirit Stones!?" Wang Dadan's eyes widened, staring intently at Jiang Xiaobai.

"You have 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones?"

"Are 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones a lot? Don't just stand there, hurry up and shout, do you believe I'll strike you with lightning!"

Wang Dadan trembled upon hearing this. He had just been struck by lightning, and he dared not try that sensation again.

His throat bobbed a few times, and Wang Dadan immediately, as Jiang Xiaobai instructed, shouted towards the bustling street:

"Come, come, come, my dear folks, good news, great news!"

"Qingyun Sect is establishing a Sect and recruiting Disciples! Any Disciple who successfully joins the Qingyun Sect will be rewarded by the Sect with 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"

"Hurry and try, maybe you can successfully take away 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"

Rumble!

Wang Dadan's words exploded like a clap of thunder in everyone's minds.

In an instant, the originally bustling street immediately became eerily silent.

Everyone's gaze turned to Wang Dadan, looking at him as if he were a complete idiot.

"Bah, my luck is really bad today. I ran into a big idiot as soon as I went out."

"Where did this fool come from? Recruiting Disciples and giving 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones? Did a Yao Beast kick his head?"

"100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones, does he not know what Top-Grade Spirit Stones are?"

Wang Dadan's lips twitched continuously, and he looked at Jiang Xiaobai with a mournful expression:

"See? Which idiot would believe what you said?"

Jiang Xiaobai's eyes narrowed upon hearing this, and his lips curved into a smile:

"A piece of cake."

"A piece of cake? Can't you be a bit more realistic? If not, let's go apply to establish a Sect and recruit Disciples first."

"A waste of time!"

Bang!

After speaking, Jiang Xiaobai directly took out a large pile of Top-Grade Spirit Stones and stacked them in front of the stall.

It was noon, and the large amount of dazzling purple Top-Grade Spirit Stones instantly attracted the attention of passersby.

Soon, a large crowd gathered, staring at the Top-Grade Spirit Stones in front of the stall with fervent, greedy expressions.

Wang Dadan was even more bewildered, exclaiming:

"You... you really have so many Top-Grade Spirit Stones? Hurry up and put them away, are you trying to get killed?"

"A piece of cake, immediately shout what you just said, quickly!"

Wang Dadan's throat bobbed. After a moment of hesitation, he grabbed the wooden megaphone and began to shout:

"Everyone, come and see, Qingyun Sect is establishing a Sect and recruiting Disciples! Anyone who successfully joins the Qingyun Sect will be rewarded with 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"

"No limit!" Jiang Xiaobai loudly added.

As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately erupted into a frenzy. Everyone stared intently at the large pile of Top-Grade Spirit Stones in front of the stall, looking eager to try.

"Qingyun Sect? Isn't that the dilapidated Sect a hundred li away that's been around for thousands of years? How are they establishing a Sect and recruiting Disciples?"

"Yeah, that dilapidated Sect is actually establishing a Sect and recruiting Disciples, who allowed it?"

"How could such a dilapidated Sect suddenly establish a Sect and recruit Disciples?"

Jiang Xiaobai looked at the chattering crowd and smiled:

"Our Qingyun Sect has been hidden for many years. Now that we are establishing a Sect and recruiting Disciples, it is a great Opportunity for everyone."

"Anyone who successfully joins the Qingyun Sect will receive 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones. I guarantee it with my honor."

Seeing Jiang Xiaobai's confident demeanor, someone immediately asked:

"Then how can one join the Qingyun Sect?"

"It's very simple, everyone just needs to let me check their Spiritual Root. There's no limit, and if you meet the conditions, you can immediately join the Qingyun Sect."

As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately became excited.

"100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones, holy cow! How much wealth is that!"

"Yeah, I want to sign up."

"I also want to sign up. This Qingyun Sect is so rich, it must be very strong, right?"

Seeing a large number of people wanting to sign up, Jiang Xiaobai's lips curved, and he smiled:

"Everyone, hurry up and queue to sign up, one by one. Anyone who successfully joins the Qingyun Sect can receive 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones."

"I'll go first, I have a Medium Grade Spiritual Root, I wonder if I can join the Qingyun Sect?"

As soon as Jiang Xiaobai finished speaking, a young man of eighteen immediately rushed forward.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiaobai immediately took out a large pile of Azure Cloud Illustrated Books and handed them to Wang Dadan:

"Fatty, take these." After Wang Dadan took the Azure Cloud Illustrated Books from Jiang Xiaobai's hand, his lips immediately stiffened, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart:

"I have an ominous premonition!"

"Everyone, line up, one by one. Congratulations, you have successfully joined the Qingyun Sect. Please sign your name on this Azure Cloud Illustrated Book, then drip a drop of blood, and you will officially become a Disciple of the Qingyun Sect, and you can also claim 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones." Jiang Xiaobai's words made the young man excited, looking at Jiang Xiaobai with some disbelief.

"Thank you, Senior Brother, this is great, I've joined the Qingyun Sect, and I also get 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones!"

The young man excitedly came before Wang Dadan. Seeing this, Wang Dadan said:

"Brother, why don't you reconsider?"

"Reconsider what? Are you trying to block my path to wealth!?"

Questioned by the young man, Wang Dadan's face was covered in black lines, and he immediately took out an Azure Cloud Illustrated Book for him:

"Hurry up and sign, and drip a drop of blood."

The young man quickly snatched the Azure Cloud Illustrated Book from Wang Dadan, then signed and dripped blood. A mysterious power instantly enveloped him.

"Here, this is 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones." Jiang Xiaobai directly threw a Storage Pouch to the young man, then said:

"Others, those who want to join the Qingyun Sect, hurry up and queue!"

Everyone present swallowed hard, especially the young man who had just joined the Qingyun Sect.

Seeing this, Wang Dadan's lips twitched continuously, and he helplessly shook his head and chose to remain silent.

"Everyone listen up, anyone who joins the Qingyun Sect can claim 100,000 Top-Grade Spirit Stones after returning to the Sect. I didn't bring that many Top-Grade Spirit Stones, so those who want to join the Qingyun Sect, hurry up and queue."

As soon as Jiang Xiaobai said this, a large number of people immediately flocked to queue.

Soon, a long line, like a Dragon, appeared on the bustling street of Qingyun City.

Just then, a figure appeared, quietly standing in the distance, staring intently at this scene:

"Qingyun Sect? Wasn't this Sect delisted many years ago?"

"And it's so rich, this kid must have found the Qingyun Sect's Treasure Trove!"

"No, I must return quickly and inform the City Lord about this."

After speaking, the figure immediately disappeared from the spot.

The news of Qingyun Sect establishing a Sect and recruiting Disciples soon spread throughout Qingyun City...
