Disrupt the Lanyue Sect's recruitment of disciples and arrive at Xiaoyao Pavilion

“Let's go, we'll check the square; Lanyue Sect is recruiting Disciples!”

“Let's not go! I heard that this time, Lanyue Sect lost over a thousand Disciples in Bei Yu City, and several Elders also died in battle. If we sign up now, I suspect Lanyue Sect will just use us as cannon fodder!”

“Wake up, you! With your cultivation, are you even qualified to be cannon fodder?”

“You're right, I'm only Qi Refining First Layer, I don't even qualify as cannon fodder!”

“Let's try first. It's said that Lanyue Sect's recruitment standards have been greatly lowered this time. If Lanyue Sect is really going to be destroyed by Demon Heaven Sect, we'll just run!”

Not long after Zhou Yuan left the inn, he heard people discussing this matter, and his eyes lit up.

He followed behind the group, deciding to go and see, and incidentally, cause some trouble for Lanyue Sect!

Above Mingyang City square, thousands of people gathered. At the very front of the square stood several women, the one with the highest cultivation being at the Golden Core Realm Middle Stage!

On the square, a huge stone tablet, three meters high, was placed!

This was what Lanyue Sect used to test Spiritual Roots.

“Everyone, today is the day Lanyue Sect recruits Disciples. Anyone who can make this stone tablet light up can enter our Lanyue Sect.”

The Golden Core Realm Middle Stage woman spoke, her voice spreading throughout the entire venue!

Zhou Yuan looked at the stone tablet, a faint smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

“System, plunder!”

“Ding! Plunder successful. Revered Master can control this test tablet!”

As the System's voice sounded, a unique wisp of Qi appeared in Zhou Yuan's Dantian.

The moment this wisp of Qi appeared, Zhou Yuan's Nascent Soul opened its eyes.

The Nascent Soul opened its mouth, and the Xuantian Sword flew out, then swallowed this special wisp of Qi.

“Could this also be Xuantian Qi?”

Zhou Yuan was quite puzzled, unsure if his guess was correct.

In just a moment, this special wisp of Qi was swallowed by the Xuantian Sword!

Zhou Yuan knew that his guess might be true!

Just then, people began to step forward, placing their hands on the stone tablet, but the stone tablet showed no reaction, and they could only retreat dejectedly.

Zhou Yuan looked at the stone tablet, and suddenly, with a thought, a wisp of his Divine Soul entered the test tablet.

Just then, a man walked forward. When the people nearby saw him, they instantly burst into laughter.

“Isn't that the Li family's waste Spiritual Root? How dare he go up there!”

“Brother Wang, you shouldn't say that. Dreams must be had, what if they come true!”

As this person's words fell, the surrounding people instantly burst into laughter.

Their discussion was not quiet, and many people nearby heard it, even the man who walked up to be tested heard it clearly!

A playful smile appeared on Zhou Yuan's face, and he decided to help that man.

Just then, the man placed his hand on the stone tablet.

The stone tablet vibrated, and a fiery red light pillar and a bright yellow light illuminated one after another.

Although the light was not very bright, it did light up! At this moment, the entire venue was silent!

“Holy cow, this good-for-nothing actually has a Spiritual Root, and it's a Fire-Earth Dual Spiritual Root! Am I seeing things?”

Those who had just been mocking him now had wide eyes, staring in disbelief at the scene before them.

“Water-Fire Dual Spiritual Root, you may join our Lanyue Sect!”

Just then, the Golden Core Realm woman from Lanyue Sect spoke, making the man overjoyed.

Zhou Yuan chuckled inwardly. These two Spiritual Roots indeed belonged to this man, but he controlled the test tablet to expand his Spiritual Root potential by a hundredfold!

But even with a hundredfold expansion, it was still not that impressive.

If such a person entered Lanyue Sect, Foundation Establishment would be impossible; at most, he would reach Qi Refining Third or Fourth Layer, and that would require extreme diligence!

Just then, a woman walked forward. Under Zhou Yuan's control, her originally ordinary Water Spiritual Root transformed into a Top-Grade Water Spiritual Root.

The light pillar shot into the sky, with countless water droplets swirling around it, and at the same time, rivers, lakes, and seas appeared within the light pillar.

The Golden Core Realm woman from Lanyue Sect was so happy she couldn't close her mouth. She hadn't expected her luck to be so good, encountering someone with such good Aptitude this time.

Returning to the Sect this time would surely bring a big reward!

Next, one by one, Dual Spiritual Roots, Triple Spiritual Roots, Top-Grade Wood Spiritual Roots, and other Disciples appeared, further stunning the people present into numbness.

When did Mingyang City become a gathering place for Geniuses?

Zhou Yuan almost burst out laughing, wondering if these people would be re-examined after being taken to Lanyue Sect.

If they weren't re-examined, these hundred or so people would become Lanyue Sect Disciples!

The Golden Core Realm person was even more delighted, unable to close her mouth. They hadn't expected such a great harvest from a single Mingyang City.

Watching the people from Lanyue Sect take away the hundred or so individuals, Zhou Yuan almost burst out laughing.

If he hadn't been afraid of being too shocking, Zhou Yuan would have tested all several thousand people present to have terrifying Spiritual Roots, allowing Lanyue Sect to take them all away directly.

After playing a prank on these people from Lanyue Sect, Zhou Yuan headed towards Xiaoyao Pavilion.

His purpose for coming out this time was singular: to kill Bai Qingping, the Grand Elder of Xiaoyao Sect.

This fellow tried to kill him in Bei Yu City. If he had truly been an ordinary Nascent Soul Realm person, he would have been directly crushed into meat paste by the opponent.

Zhou Yuan was very vengeful. Since this old fellow could be so shameless, he naturally had to play along with him!

Mingyang City was about 1,500 li away from Xiaoyao Pavilion. Zhou Yuan was not in a hurry, so he didn't rush his journey.

Thinking about how he almost joined Xiaoyao Pavilion back then, he couldn't help but find it amusing.

However, he did know two people in Xiaoyao Pavilion: Qin Ming and Qin Yue.

He wondered how this brother and sister were doing in Xiaoyao Pavilion now?

But Zhou Yuan had no intention of reuniting with them. They were merely chance acquaintances; since they had parted ways, why bother disturbing them again?

However, the Aptitude of these two siblings was not very good. Even if they entered Xiaoyao Pavilion, they would probably only be assigned to guard the Spiritual Fields and Medicinal Gardens!

Zhou Yuan traveled leisurely, stopping along the way. Ten days later, Zhou Yuan arrived at Xiaoyao Pavilion!

Looking at the magnificent Sect before him, Zhou Yun's mouth curved into a cold smile.

Zhou Yuan took out a token from his In arms. The front read 'Inner Sect' and the back read 'Chu Xing'.

This person was a Xiaoyao Pavilion Disciple Zhou Yuan had encountered three days ago. After being captured by Zhou Yuan, he was directly subjected to soul-searching.

After providing the other party with a 'Dragon' service of cremation, soul destruction, and ash scattering, Zhou Yuan disguised himself as the other party and came to Xiaoyao Pavilion.

“Chu Xing, Inner Sect Disciple, Revered Master Niu Qinglai, Golden Core Realm Early Stage cultivation!”

This was Chu Xing's basic information.

When Zhou Yuan saw that his Revered Master was Niu Qinglai, his eyes couldn't help but narrow into a slit.

He hadn't expected to kill the other party's Revered Master earlier, and now to kill him again. What a coincidence!
