Who Let Him Cultivate?!

Among the ten interviewees, Lu Yang was the sixth. He noticed that the candidates before him would run out as soon as they entered the examiner’s room, sprint out at one hundred meters per second, then run back again, repeating this back-and-forth process several times.

“What kind of weird test is this?”

Lu Yang is the restless type. The rules state that candidates are not allowed to ask about the interview content, but it doesn’t say he can’t go outside to take a look.

He asked a demon cultivator next to him who was meditating with his eyes closed, “Do you want to go outside and take a look?”

The demon cultivator glanced contemptuously at Lu Yang and sneered, without saying anything.

Demon cultivators acting collectively? He must be trying to trick me. No way, I’m not going.

Seeing the man’s silence, Lu Yang felt pity for him.

He’s quite handsome, but it’s a shame he’s deaf. I wonder what he will do during the interview if he can’t hear what the examiner says?

Since no one was responding, Lu Yang went outside.

Outside was a bustling market with vendors selling fruits, eggs, pork… Any commonly seen food could be found here. The sellers either had a stall or pushed a small cart while hawking their goods.

“Get me an apple,” Lu Yang bought an apple, rubbed it clean and started eating. While munching, he observed the interviewees’ behaviors.

The third one happened to run outside looking for potatoes. As soon as he found some, he immediately ran back to report it to the examiner.

Less than three minutes later, he again came out to ask the potato seller how much a pound of potatoes costs and how many pounds he had in total.

Another three minutes passed, the same third person ran out to inspect the quality of the potatoes.

The same happened for the fourth person; the only difference was that he ran four times, proving he was not as mentally agile as the third person.

Eating his apple, Lu Yang pondered deeply.

“Next, Fang Hao,” the chubby examiner called out.

Fang Hao was the same person Lu Yang asked to go outside with earlier.

“Here!” To everyone’s surprise, Fang Hao wasn’t mute.

“Go to the market and see if there are any potatoes for sale,” The chubby examiner repeated his trick.

Fang Hao hurriedly ran out and didn’t return for quite a while, which puzzled the examiner.

Just when the examiner was about to lose patience, Fang Hao rushed back in and said, “There are no potatoes for sale in the market.”

“How many pounds of potatoes… Wait, what did you say? There are no potatoes?”

Fang Hao didn’t understand why the examiner was so shocked. He nodded and said, “Yes, I checked twice and I’m sure there are no potatoes for sale.”

“That’s impossible!” The examiner felt like he was being fooled, so he hurriedly ran out with Fang Hao following behind.

As soon as the examiner stepped outside, he saw Lu Yang pushing a cart full of potatoes with a sign saying “Potatoes not for sale.”

The old man who was supposed to be the potato vendor was happily counting his money on the side.

As soon as Lu Yang saw the examiner, he started running with the potatoes. The examiner was furious – the potatoes were running away with the rest of the interview pending.

“Stop right there!”

Lu Yang passed the test.

“This is outrageous!” The vice headmaster exploded in rage. His rampant and terrifying aura spread out, shaking the entire hall. The water in the pool rippled, obscuring the view of the scene.

The test he had so meticulously designed was full of loopholes because of these two troublemakers. It was utterly humiliating!

The headmaster calmly suppressed the vice headmaster’s aura. It wasn’t easy to build such a magnificent hall in a place where it wouldn’t easily be discovered. It would certainly become a joke if it was found out by the righteous path just because of this.

The headmaster advised, “Don’t be so quick to anger. They just forgot everything, only remembering to do whatever they can to pass the test. We are the demonic sect, advocating for immortality through killing. Can we really kill someone over something like this?”

“Besides, these two took an unconventional approach. They are rare talents.

The Eternity Sect hasn’t made any major breakthroughs since its establishment. I think these two could be our hope.”

The vice headmaster thought that there was no hope for the Eternity Sect.

The headmaster excitedly said, “Speaking of which, this Man Gu, as well as Meng Jingzhou and Lu Yang, they’re all from Yanjiang County, right?”

“Who would have thought that such a small place could produce three talents? Calling them the ‘Three Sages of the Demonic Sect’ wouldn’t be an overstatement. With them, our sect would be like a tiger with wings!”

The vice headmaster muttered under his breath, “Like a tiger with wings, isn’t that a Qiongqi? Even a Qiongqi couldn’t defeat the righteous path.”

The headmaster glared at him, “Showing off your education, huh? Shut up.”

The vice headmaster obediently shut his mouth.

Yanjiang Rudder.

Eleven managers are using all their strength to maintain a large array. Nearly a hundred scatter demon cultivators are standing still, with their two eyes blank and empty of thought. Their minds are taking over their bodies to undertake the test.

Maintaining the large array is a boring process. While replenishing their qi with the Qi Recovery Pill, the managers started to chat, “Qin Yuanhao’s been missing for so long, he must be dead.”

“Definitely. But I don’t knowhow he died. I said it long ago; the kid is always scheming here and there, thinking he has everything under control, but one day he would upset his enemies who would get him during the dark night.”

“Qin Yuanhao’s body hasn’t been found yet.”

“Was it his enemy who killed him?”

“What else could it be? Could it be a benefactor looking to repay his kindness by killing him? People like us never have benefactors.”

Didn 11 hear that Qin Yuanhao was at a brothel with Big Mouth Wang the night before he died?”

The managers chuckled quietly, their laughter rising and falling.

Just as Qin Yuanhao had hoped, Big Mouth Wang was going around spreading the story about their night at the brothel, boasting about how they never tire, creating havoc inside and out of the brothel.

Then, Qin Yuanhao died.

So, the rumor that Qin Yuanhao died due to excessive indulgence started spreading around Yanjiang Rudder.

If Qin Yuanhao knew about all this from beyond the grave, he could finally rest in peace.

“I wonder how many of this group will pass the test.”

Although many people participate in the initiation ceremony, it’s good if even one out of ten can pass the test and join the sect successfully.

As managers, they too had gone through similar tests. They knew how difficult it was.

The vice headmaster personally overseeing the tests this time, it would certainly be one of the most difficult tests ever conducted!

“Only the Rudder Master knows the result.” The eleven of them looked towards the Rudder Master who was meditating.

He was using the array to enter the mysterious space created by the Eternity

Sect. All the Rudder Masters of the sub-sect could watch their respective sect’s performance in the mysterious space.

The excellent performance of the three, Lu Yang, made Rudder Master’s face bloom like a chrysanthemum with joy.

However, he was wearing a mask, so no one could see how happy he was.

He murmured excitedly to himself, “If these three can successfully pass and get highly praised by the superiors, the annual performance of Yanjiang Rudder will definitely be in the first rank. And if I could enhance my cultivation level, I might get transferred to a wealthier area as the Rudder Master next year, or even get directly promoted to a Head of Hall!”

After the three tests, the vice headmaster or headmaster would give a score to the outstanding new members. For example, Qin Yuanhao’s score was “Rooted in Demonism.”

The Rudder Master believed that the score of Lu Yang’s group would definitely be higher than Qin Yuanhao’s.

Just by looking at them, it’s clear they are no good!
