"Wang Chen, you've arrived!" Just as they reached the square in front of the grand hall, they heard the questioning voices of Zilan and others approaching from a distance.
Zi Lan and Ke Er's relationship with Wang Chen is still okay, thanks to Liu Xiangyan, the few people get along quite harmoniously.
"Hmph, madman, you've come too!" Ke'er complained discontentedly.
The madman was not as lucky as Wang Chen, but he never gave him a good look.
"Haha... I'm just accompanying Boss over here, haha!" The Madman replied with a bitter smile to Ke'er's questioning.
In front of Ke'er, the madman always has a 'weak' appearance, which is indeed very different from usual.
"Are you ready?" Looking at Wang Chen, Liu Xiangyan couldn't help but ask! Even though she knew that Wang Chen had already entered the third stage of True Martial Artist and entering the inner door was not a problem at all.
"Haha! The boss needs to get ready! Hehe, just you wait and see! Let's see how those who dare challenge the boss will die!" The strong man who knew Wang Chen's strength said with a smile.
Someone like Wang Chen participating in the inner door selection is already a heaven-defying thing, it's completely breaking the rules of the game! Do you still need to ask if he's ready? If this isn't being prepared, then how can others survive?
"Mind your own business! You're always nagging, if this continues, Wang Chen will be spoiled by you!"
He glared fiercely at the madman, but then smiled and said.
"Honestly, you don't even let me speak, just watch out! It's best not to mess with my boss! Otherwise, you'll definitely regret it!" The madman muttered softly, clearly still a little intimidated by Ke'er. As for the reason why, perhaps he would only understand later on.
"Hmph, who's afraid of whom! Wang Chen, you wait and see! With a huff, she stomped her foot and turned to walk away, leaving behind a parting shot. She didn't bother with him anymore."
A few people were left staring at each other in dismay. This crazy guy really knows how to stir up trouble.
"Then let's go first, I'll wait for you up ahead!" Looking at Ke'er walking away, Liu Xiangyan said with a bitter smile.
As Liu Xiangyan and Zilan left, the two of them suddenly felt quiet. Looking at Kuang Ren, Wang Chen sighed: "Can't you just be honest for once? Why do you always oppose her?"
"Big brother, don't be like this! Do you know why I'm like this? It's because of that little guy! If it weren't for him back then, wouldn't I have been killed by Hongxiu? Wouldn't the three teams behind us have joined forces to kill me?! Speaking of which makes me angry, forget it, I won't say anything else! Just wait until I meet her and teach her a lesson!" Kuangren's face was full of grievances.
Wang Chen could only cry and laugh at the same time. This guy was really something! At first, he didn't go to ask what had happened, but it seemed that the grudge between the two people was not small.
As he walked into the square, Wang Chen's appearance instantly drew everyone's attention.
With his arrival, there was a flurry of discussion, and from time to time, someone would mention Xuan Yu and Ke Er's names together, as if they were being compared.
Everyone gave way to let them pass wherever they went.
Watching this scene, Wang Chen couldn't help but feel a thousand emotions.
This scene seems to have been seen somewhere before? The Korean family comparison a few months ago, the annual college student evaluation comparison, and the annual Korean family comparison! Weren't these scenes always so lively?
It was just that at the beginning, I was just an inconspicuous small person. Even if I caught someone's attention, it was only a burst of ridicule and sarcasm! But now, in just a few short months, there has been a earth-shattering change.
The initial jeers and scornful gazes are gone! Instead, they have been replaced by admiring eyes and reverent expressions.
It's really a case of "the times have changed, and people are no longer the same". All this has happened in just a few short months. This made Wang Chen even more deeply understand that on this continent, strength is king, and the strong are revered.
Would I have gotten such a gaze if I didn't have this bit of strength? Would I have gotten such an attitude? Perhaps I would still be that useless trash who was looked down upon by others in Qingfeng City.
After several months of hard work, Wang Chen finally managed to establish himself in the Starry Sky Sect.
The people outside have all gathered in the square at this moment.
In the front, Huang Ya elder and Ku Gu elder were still standing there with a somewhat lifeless expression, as if they could be blown away by a gust of wind, especially Ku Gu elder's frail body.
However, the informed Wang Chen and others did not dare to underestimate these two listless elders! The strength of Huang Ya's elder that day still lingers in people's minds, still making them fearful.
If a man like Huang Wu is not worthy of attention, then how many people in the entire northern border are worthy of attention?
Everyone arrived, and under the leadership of two elders, a line of people walked towards the inner gate. This is also the only time in a year when the inner gate is open to all members outside the door.
On ordinary days, without the summons and permission of the inner gate, no one is allowed to enter the inner gate privately. Otherwise, once discovered, life or death will not be spared.
The inner gate's martial arts arena is more than twice as large as the outer gate! The atmosphere is grand, with about 60 or 70 members standing inside. These people should be all the remaining inner gate members of the sect.
There are over a hundred members in the inner sect, but not all of them stay inside to cultivate. Some people choose to go out and temper their strength after reaching a certain level, while others are sent to manage some business points on the mainland for the sect. So, it's no surprise that the more than 60 people present should be the total strength of the inner sect.
Although there were only more than sixty people, they had a majestic momentum and a faint killing intent! Compared to the outer sect's two hundred or so people, they were even stronger! They were the elite of Xingchen Sect.
The number is small, but they are all the best! Under such intense competition within the Star Sect, anyone who can enter the inner door is a top-notch person!
Although the number is far less than that of the orthodox sects, if they really fight, these sixty or so people can at least withstand hundreds of people in the orthodox school.
This is the difference in combat power, this is where Xīng Chén Zōng is strong and terrifying! The cultivation method of a wild beast generally produces people who are born for battle! It's precisely because of this that Xīng Chén Zōng makes those Orthodox Sect disciples so apprehensive.
Once the Star Sect has 500 inner disciples, which is the average number of inner sect disciples in a normal sect, it will be enough to look down on the North Territory! What about Donglin Mountain's claim of having 1,000 inner sect disciples? What about Liehuo Sect's nearly 1,500 inner sect disciples? The difference in combat power and training methods makes it impossible for both sides to compare.
After the trial of blood and fire, the 500 inner disciples of Xingchen Sect who had wandered between life and death were enough to look down on all heroes!
If the Star Sect really only pursued fame and wealth, they could have used the same cultivation methods as the orthodox sects! If that were the case, how could there be so few inner disciples in the Star Sect today? Not to mention more, accumulating four or five hundred people over the years would definitely not be a problem.
But does having more people really make it useful?
For this point, Wang Chen couldn't help but admire the way Xingchen Sect had been cultivating for a long time, it was indeed the most effective way of cultivation! This is what showed that a sect wanted to expand its ambitions.
………………………………
With the arrival of the outer sect members, all the Xingchen Sect members are now present.
The vast training ground had only a few hundred people, which was indeed somewhat deserted and made one sigh.
This magnificent training ground can be seen from the original glory of Xingchen Sect! The most glorious time was in the middle continent, standing at the peak of the mainland, with 100,000 personnel, what a grand sight it was. Even when Xingchen Sect declined and reluctantly moved to Yinfeng Valley, there were still tens of thousands of people!
However, everything has changed beyond recognition now.
Looking at the vast training ground, Wang Chen seemed to see the scene of people mountain people sea at that time, and saw that passionate passion burning.
"Xīng chén zōng, chí zuì huì huí guī dào dà lù de diān fēng!" Thinking of what he said to Ling Zhan back then, Wang Chen couldn't help but mutter to himself.
"What's wrong?" Xiang Qian couldn't help but ask as he looked at Wang Chen standing aside muttering to himself.
This guy has been sneaking around recently and doesn't know what he's doing, but it's been several days since I've seen him! This actually makes Wang Chen feel a bit suspicious.
He didn't expect this guy to appear again, and somehow he had walked up beside him! Leaving Wang Chen speechless!
"Nothing, nothing at all!" Wang Chen said with a bitter smile after coming back to his senses.
"Hey, boss, all five elders from the inner sect are here! Hehe, I wonder if the Sect Master will show up this time!" The next moment, Crazy's excited voice came.
Following his gaze, he saw five figures walking towards the high platform in front of him.
The first one was the Great Elder, followed by the Second Elder Yaochen, who was most familiar to Wang Chen. Then there were three old men over fifty years old, whom Wang Chen had never seen before! They should be the other three Elders of the Inner Gate!
After the five of them, Huang Ya and Ku Gu also walked towards the high platform.
As the seven people appeared, everyone in the audience fell silent, and the previous noise disappeared.
As the silence beneath the stage subsided, the elder began to speak, nothing more than how the Star Sect had fared this year and how everyone had performed. After a round of such talk, they finally arrived at the most exciting moment.
With the announcement of the Great Elder, the annual inner door selection finally began! And Wang Chen and eleven other candidates stood at the front of the crowd after hearing their names, waiting for the assessment to begin!
The emergence of the eleventh person brought a burst of cheers from the scene! Even the inner door members couldn't help but cheer, after all, many people have passed through this threshold, and being able to reach this step in the outer door is a testament to one's strength.
Then the two elders spoke, this time it was much simpler, just saying some encouraging words to a few people, and then announced that the assessment had officially begun while announcing the first test project!
The first test project is to require eleven people to enter the Windy Valley, hunt and kill a second-level intermediate demon beast, and bring back the materials! Time limit: one morning! Method unlimited!
As soon as this question was thrown out, the scene fell silent for a moment, and then it burst into an uproar.
