——–

Below the Heavenly Faction,

In the square, a large number of people were queuing up, waiting to test their innate talents.

Jiang Hao lined up behind Yu Ye, feeling quite displeased in his heart.

“I spent thirteen hundred spirit stones to help someone else pass the second round,” he shook his head and lamented, “I'm somewhat disappointed in the Heavenly Faction.”

“What if I give you back the thirteen hundred?” Yu Ye ahead of him asked out of curiosity.

“I'd barely not be disappointed,” Jiang Hao answered offhandedly.

“What if I give you thirty-one hundred?” Yu Ye asked again.

“The Heavenly Faction is truly worthy of being an immortal sect,” Jiang Hao said earnestly.

Yu Ye chuckled.

Then the two started paying attention to the talent testing.

They discovered that not even one person out of a hundred had passed.

Were the talent requirements really so harsh?

“Immortal sects are indeed very strict; they actually require top-notch innate talents,” Yu Ye remarked.

Jiang Hao also felt moved. Back in the day at the Heavenly Note Sect, with so many people, there were only two with top-notch innate talents.

In this first round, less than a hundred people could make it through, right?

A single special channel sends in two hundred people?

Indeed, it's hard to see through these people.

However, those who failed were going elsewhere, perhaps to new tests.

Jiang Hao didn't care much about this.

After waiting for quite a while, it was finally Yu Ye's turn.

“Give it a try,” the fairy guard overseeing the event directed her gaze towards the talent-testing stone.

So far, there had been thirty-six who passed the talent test.

Among them, six had excellent talents.

Beyond top-notch.

Even in a grand era, so many with top-notch talents would be extremely terrifying.

If they appeared in the Heavenly Note Sect, it really wouldn't leave a way out for other disciples.

Too many geniuses. It'd be necessary to raise the standard for recruitment.

Yu Ye approached the stone and touched it with her hand.

Then she demonstrated her talents.

“Top-notch?” The fairy guard at the side expressed surprise, “Passed.”

Then she turned to Jiang Hao, “It's your turn.”

However, seeing that Yu Ye hadn't moved to the side to wait, she asked curiously, “Are you waiting for him?”

Yu Ye nodded.

“What if he doesn't get in?” inquired the fairy guard.

“Then naturally I won't enter either,” Yu Ye declared.

The fairy guard didn't mind and let Jiang Hao give it a try.

Walking over, Jiang Hao pondered for a moment.

He was thinking about what kind of talent to use, or whether to test his own talents.

His cultivation talent should be top-notch.

But not enough to get in.

He would have to fake it.

Who would have thought that he, a great Daluo himself, would still need to deceive his way into the Heavenly Faction.

Shaking his head and lamenting inwardly, Jiang Hao placed his hand on the stone.

Top-notch.

Passed.

“Go to the side and wait. Before nightfall, we will take you to the second round,” the fairy guard announced.

Jiang Hao and Yu Ye then continued waiting, spending the afternoon watching others test their talents.

Actually, it was quite interesting, as there would always be some with uniquely endowed talents.

In the evening,

A total of sixty-two people met the standard.

Afterward, that Senior Sister Lin looked at Jiang Hao and the others and said, “Passing the first round basically means you're admitted to the Heavenly Faction.

As long as you pass the Inquiry, there should be no problem.

Of course, if you want to freely choose which peak to join, you need to pass the third round.

Also, my last name is Lin; you can call me Senior Sister Lin.”

Hearing this, Jiang Hao was somewhat astonished.

Then he asked, “So those two hundred people passed the first round, and they just need to walk the Inquiry to get into the Heavenly Faction?”

“Yes,” Senior Sister Lin nodded emphatically.

“They're really in? There won't be any elimination midway?” Jiang Hao found it hard to believe, “Isn't this a bit too playful?”

“Playful?” Senior Sister Lin laughed, “With their great luck, how can it be considered playful? Is strength guaranteed just because the talents are good?

Talent is important, that's why we have you. Chance and great fortune are just as crucial, hence we have them.

As for who can ultimately achieve something, everyone is the same; good talents doesn't necessarily lead to an astounding success.

At most, they'll become immortals.

That's nothing remarkable.”

Jiang Hao: “….”

For some reason, it felt to him like the Heavenly Note Sect was akin to country bumpkins.

Afterward, they arrived at the second round, the Inquiry.

This road was unremarkable.

“This road is not easy to traverse, and there's only one requirement to pass: a resolute mind,” Senior Sister Lin warned, “No matter whether this mind is good or bad, as long as it's firm, you can get through.”

She then let the others start walking.

At this time, Senior Sister Lin approached Jiang Hao from behind and said, “Junior Brother seems determined to pass the second round.”

Jiang Hao nodded, “Yes.”

“Then, Senior Sister has a word of advice for you, the third round is not easy to pass.

There are no rules; it's really a matter of whether they want you to pass or not,” Senior Sister Lin carefully brought out a stone and said, “Five thousand spirit stones for one, ten thousand for two.

You can choose any peak you like, guaranteed admission.

I see you two are a couple. If you buy this, you can get a couple's room.”

Jiang Hao was somewhat incredulous, “Really?”

“Would your Senior Sister deceive you? In the future, we are from the same sect, often meeting whether we look up or down. Surely, I wouldn't let you go around saying I'm a swindler, right?

We are, after all, an immortal sect,” Senior Sister Lin assured with conviction.

It did seem so indeed.

“I'll take two. If they're useless, I'll come back to the sect and you can return them to me. I mean what I say,” Senior Sister Lin looked at them earnestly.

Since she mentioned returns were possible, Jiang Hao felt there was no issue.

Without hesitation, he bought two.

Before leaving, Senior Sister Lin reassured, “You'll be glad you made this purchase.”

Yu Ye looked at Jiang Hao and asked, “Do you think you might have been deceived?”

“No worries, I can ask her for the money back,” Jiang Hao said seriously.

Yu Ye maintained her smile.

Then the two walked on Inquiry. The pace of other people slowed down, showing signs of distress.

After a short while, Jiang Hao saw two people with top-notch talents being sent out.

Then, one with excellent talent was also sent out.

It meant immediate elimination.

Continuing forward, Jiang Hao saw the previous group of over two hundred people.
