Chapter 22 - 22 Recruitment
Chapter 22: Recruitment
Inside the capital city, the center square was the most lively place in the whole Empire.
A few grand halls were opened for recruitment with academies' names, even banners were written in front of them.
Only Xuan Sect Hall was filled with participants; the other halls were empty.
Lin Lee appeared walking, next moment he became extremely speechless, looking at the chaotic crowd.
'It looks like a free money scheme participation instead of sect or academy recruitment.' He thought to himself.
After passing beside the Crowd walked inside the Xuan sect recruitment Hall, he appeared directly in front of the recruiting Elder, looking at the young man with fine appearance, taking ten top-grade spirit stones and letting participants touch the huge crystal beside his table.
A female participant was standing beside it touching it, The crystal lit up with three beams blue, red and gold.
"Ge Lu, age 14, fail," The Recruiting Agent shook his head and announced.
The girl was startled, as if she didn't expect her age to have exceeded.
She anxiously said, "I am 13 year's old. I have really awakened my martial spirit 9 months ago."
Other participants in the crowd were also startled, they were surprised by the girl claim and started whisphering amongst themselves,
Some were looking at the girl strangely, As if not believing that somone will deny Immortal Sect test.
The sect representative shook his head stood up and glanced at the crowd around, then glanced at the girl with cold expression spoke solemnly. "This is Xuan Immortal Sect recruitment site, remember don't you dare to slander the sect reputation, or I will remove your head, now get lost."
The girl flinched instantly shrank her head bowing, hurriedly walked away with frightened expression amidst the playful expression of everyone.
Lin Lee glanced at her back thoughtfully, shook his head, 'Thats the nicest way I saw sect representative dealt with her, if there were other recruitment Hall. She would have been a corpse by now.'
"The test is comprise of three part, the crystal there is an Immortal Stone, with precise formation shows your age, talent and martial spirit, The Immortal sect will not spoil it's name for mere ten spirit stone, Next Li Han." The recruiting Agent explained, glanced at the crowd sat down again on the seat.
Lin Lee glanced at the three beams on the crystal assumed. Tall golden beam reaching about 13 feet representing age, blue beam reached 10 feet representing the martial spirit, and red beam reached 9 feet representing talent and attribute.
"Li Han, age 13, 9th level martial artist, fire attribute pass," Recruiter.
A sassy-looking boy with one huge bang smiled shyly.
Lin Lee nodded thoughtfully, 'As expected,' Looking at other failures sadly returning, while the ones who passed stood behind the representative in a separate area.
Lin Lee paid the spirit stone, wrote his name and details, calmly appeared beside the crystal and touched it.
Slowly, the crystal lit up with a golden colour then silver, a white colour and finally another extra purple color appeared.
Lin Lee felt his bead spirit shook as if intelligently concealed something.
Instantly, the silver and white beam halted at 10 feet, golden beam halted at less then 13 feet and purple beam shot toward the sky, reaching the clouds amidst the horror-filled eyes of the sect representative and all the crowd around.
The sect executive smiled excitedly, hurriedly grabbed the information looking at the information above, then announced with a happy smile, "Lin Lee, 10th level martial artist and spirit, 12 years, three months old passed."
"Ha ha ha, Our Xuan Immortal sect found a treasure this time," instantly, laughter sounded from the sky direction, and a vertical gap appeared in the void. Few old men appeared through it, one of them was rubbing his goatee.
Lin Lee retracted his hand, glanced at the void gap above, 'So they are Masters, traveling through the Void. Only master and above can do it.' He thought to himself, as a limit in innate realm, he can feel the void space above already.
"I have seen the Elder, I am recruiting agent Min Hao." The recruiter, Min Hao, bowed and saluted.
The old man with white goatee and lengthy hair in the middle nodded glanced at the Min Hao direction said, "Sect will remember your contribution." Then he appeared beside Lin Lee instantly startled everyone,
Lin Lee become alert his body tightened, ready to attack.
Elder smiled patting his shoulder said, "Relax little guy, let me check the physique." started investigating his physique.
Lin Lee startled and then relaxed, his martial bead shook in his mind a thin visible veil spread and covered his whole body, covering every cell's and tissue's.
Then the Elder aura was introduced in his body reaching all meridian and dantian, even spiritual space after investigation it returned.
Lin Lee shivered, feeling all his internal situation was seen by this old man. But he didn't care; his bead concealment is very effective. No one can find his actual details, not even those Holy realm. Immortals may find his disguise, soon he will breakthrough to Master realm,
Then even Immortals may not be able to see his actual situation.
After a while, the Elder opened his eyes and nodded with a smile, glancing at the few old men standing above in the void. "It's Purple Holy Physique, 9th in the list of Top Ten Holy Physiques."
The other old men standing above in the void laughed happily, excitement flashing through their eyes. "Ha ha ha, our Xuan Sect is blessed."
Others around were also surprised, including Lin Lee himself.
'I have condensed a Holy Physique directly. It may be because of my accumulation or my talent is more amazing then i thought.' Lin Lee thought to himself.
Other participants glanced at him enviously, some even felt extremely jealous and wished they could replace him.
"Let's go, little guy. You exceeded the requirements by a lot. You are directly admitted as a core disciple. 8th stage martial artists are recruited as outer disciples after the competition. 9th stage martial artists are recruited directly as inner disciples, and 10th are core and true disciples, depending on some great elders accepting disciples among them," the old man explained.
Lin Lee was surprised thoughtfully nodded. 'There is such a setting.' Then hesitated a little and asked, "Elder, I have a follower. Can I bring her along? I can't leave her here alone."
The old man smiled looking at him, and other old men standing in the void also smiled. 'This little guy didn't forget his follower after leaping to such a height. His heart is quite clear. He may pass the next test easily.' They all nodded in approval.
"Ha ha ha don't worry young man, go bring your follower, we will take her with you, Also, I am Lin Han outer sect elder, we share same surname. You can call me Elder Lin." the Elder nodded said then introduced himself with a big smile on his face.
Lin Lee nodded respectfully,
Elder Lin Han then grabbed out a small ring from his storage ring and passed it to him, "Here it is little appreciation from me. You did a good job in the test."
Lin Lee startled then respectfully took the ring nodded, "Thank You Elder Lin." He knew why elder did it, in order to have a good connection with him.
Lin Lee then returned to the tavern along with the old man standing in the void, who appeared with Elder Lin Han, they are also elder of outer sect from the same peak as Elder Lin Han.
After a while, he returned with a nervous Luo Li beside him.
Looking at Elder Lin Han and another Elder sitting in the hall,
They also saw Lin Lee and Luo Li appearing and nodded with a smile.
After a while the test was over, letting Lin Lee and other participants who passed following them. Outside the hall, Elder threw a small object in the sky, which enlarged, and a huge shadow appeared in the Void.
Surprised all participants, except few who already belonged to prominent clan's in this Empire or surrounding Empires.
'So this is Earth level Treasure, The void boat.' Lin Lee thought to himself looking at the Void boat in surprise. Earth and Heaven Level Treasures have the properties to resize because they are made from large quantities of space stone, extremely rare and precious materials.
After picking all the participants who exceeded the 7th martial artist, including Lin Lee and Luo Li, the boat flew inside the void gap instantly, disappeared.
Lin Lee, standing in the boat, looked at the pitch-black void surrounding the boat he can feel void properties around.
The Void was prevented by a golden invisible shield of the boat.
Lin Lee could feel the boat was definitely traveling at a fast speed. As for how fast, he didn't know.
"Why are you in daze Luo Li?" Lin Lee asked looking at daze Luo Li.
"Nothing Young Master, it's just I can't believe, I am going to legendary Immortal sect." Luo Lee shook her head then replied nervously.
"Don't worry everything will be fine." Lin Lee smiled and rubbed her head.
Luo Li face turned red and nodded feeling warmth, looking at Lin Lee handsome face. 'Young Master is really kind and different from other.' Then she shook her head, her cheeks flushed even more.
