My Fairy Raising Game

"Wow, are there really that many people?"

Although he knew that the Dragon Gate Ceremony would be very lively, Shen Yu was still taken aback by the bustling crowds when he arrived at the foot of Jade Osmanthus Mountain in the inner sect.

Looking around, all I could see were heads, a dense, dark mass.

Because of the law enforcement officers in the square, the onlookers gathered at the edge of the square, forming circles around it and obediently maintaining a certain degree of quiet.

"With so many people gathered together, they can't even run. If I were to unleash the Autumn Water Sword, a single swing would wipe them all out..."

With some wicked thoughts swirling in his mind, Shen Yu squeezed into the square.

At this moment, the entire square had been filled with disciples who had come to participate in the Dragon Gate Ceremony.

Shen Yu slowly scanned the people around him, silently sensing their presence.

"As expected, there are quite a few formidable figures here. Just by glancing around, I spotted three who had cultivated superior-grade divine abilities. As for disciples who had cultivated inferior-grade and mid-grade divine abilities, there are countless others..."

Since experiencing the transformation last night, in addition to changes in his innate talent and appearance, Shen Yu has found that his spiritual sense has also become exceptionally sharp.

He could sense the different auras emanating from the many fellow disciples passing by.

Some are majestic and profound, some are ethereal and misty, some are clear and unpredictable, and some are reserved and restrained like a tortoise.

Among them were quite a few disciples who had cultivated superior supernatural abilities.

Some even deliberately used the concealment technique, clearly intending to hide their true abilities, play dumb to outmaneuver others, and then make a name for themselves, but they couldn't escape Shen Yu's senses.

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name 12199.99]

In the past, he would never have noticed this situation.

But now, no matter how well these people hide, it seems they can't escape Shen Yu's eyes.

Clearly, this is a special sensory ability that Shen Yu gained after his body and mind were sublimated when his talent advanced to the light gold level.

"Chang'an..."

Hou Yong also approached excitedly, greeted them, and then looked around curiously:

"This ceremony is really lively, much more so than the last one."

"yes."

Shen Yu looked at the crowd around him, and his expression changed slightly when he saw some ordinary people with expressions of nervousness or anticipation: "Among those participating in the Dragon Gate Ceremony, there are many disciples of our sect, but there are also quite a few ordinary people."

The Dragon Gate Ceremony is a grand event open to all, regardless of status.

Both outer disciples and miscellaneous disciples are welcome to participate.

Even ordinary servants and ordinary mortals from the outside world can participate, as long as they believe in their own talent and comprehension.

However, there are actually limitations to participation in this grand ceremony.

Everyone, regardless of their social status, has only one chance to participate, and must be no older than thirty.

The ceremony is divided into three stages: worshipping the ancestral master, questioning the inner demons, and the trial of magical combat.

The first two stages, namely, worshipping the ancestral master and seeking enlightenment from inner demons, are open to ordinary people and serve as two important tests of one's talent and Daoist will.

If you perform well, you can naturally defy fate and enter the Jade Toad Palace, or even be directly promoted to an inner disciple, or be accepted as a disciple by a big shot in the inner sect.

But if you perform poorly, you'll never have another chance.

For a true disciple of the Jade Toad Palace like Shen Yu, all three levels of challenges require his full effort.

Not only do you need to strive to show your abilities, but you also need to strive to surpass others.

Only by performing well can one have a better chance of gaining the attention of important figures!

In other words, everyone present at the ceremony, including Hou Yong standing next to him, were potential rivals.

"Um?"

Shen Yu's gaze suddenly sharpened as he spotted two familiar figures.

One was a middle-aged man with a large belly and extremely long arms, resembling a giant monkey; the other was a pale-skinned, handsome young man.

However, the two men had some bruises on their mouths, clearly the uncle and nephew Sun Tian and Sun Yao who had asked him for directions a few days ago!

However, at this moment, the uncle and nephew had upgraded their equipment, each changing into a gorgeous and exquisite outfit.

Especially Sun Yao, who was surrounded by several outer disciples and was receiving their slightly flattering and ingratiating words.

The Dragon Gate Ceremony is extremely important to many disciples, but many others participate in this grand event not only to showcase themselves and compete with others, but also to build good relationships.

It doesn't matter if you're not particularly talented, as long as you can get to know one or two geniuses, you'll naturally benefit when they achieve great success.

It wasn't a secret that Sun Yao's talent had been investigated and that he possessed the Moon Spirit Body.

Many well-informed individuals then set their sights on Sun Yao.

This is no ordinary teenager from the secular world; he's clearly a promising future golden goose!

If you don't make friends with them now while they're still nobody, and then try to curry favor with them when they become a high-ranking cultivator, who will even bother with you then?!

"Could it be that Sun Yao has actually been found to have some amazing talent?"

Seeing this, Shen Yu couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Especially when he saw the arrogant and disdainful attitude that the boy named Sun Yao subconsciously showed when he was being flattered, his fingers itched and he had an urge to hit him.

"Chang'an, what are you looking at?"

Hou Yong noticed that Shen Yu was staring in one direction, seemingly lost in thought. He turned his head and exclaimed in realization, "Oh, it's him!"

"Do you know him?"

Shen Yu withdrew his gaze.

"This kid is called Sun Yao. I heard that he was discovered by Granny Golden Snake in the mortal world as a potential cultivator. A few days ago, he was found to have the Moon Spirit Body. It is said that he is naturally suited to cultivate the Taoist methods of our Jade Toad Palace."

Hou Yong pursed his lips, his envy evident in his voice: "From then on, there were always sycophants trying to flatter him. Bah! He's supposed to be a cultivator, yet a bunch of them go around trying to curry favor with an ordinary person every now and then. It's truly shameful!"

"The body of a moon spirit?"

Shen Yu raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised: "He actually has this kind of talent?"

He had naturally heard of the Moon Spirit Body; it was one of the few talents suitable for cultivating Yin-attribute Daoist arts.

Just then, Sun Yao looked over. When he saw Shen Yu, he was first stunned, then his face showed anger and resentment.

"Shen Yu, it's you!"

Without hesitation, he strode over.

The people around them were puzzled and quickly followed.

Seeing the other party approaching menacingly, Shen Yu stood still, watching them quietly as they walked towards him.

"You, surnamed Shen, probably wouldn't believe it, but I've already joined the Jade Toad Palace and become an outer disciple."

Sun Yao approached Shen Yu and sneered smugly: "Not only that, today I will also become an inner disciple, achieving in no time what you couldn't do in over a decade. In the future, I may even become a true disciple."

"On the contrary, you have mediocre talent and average comprehension. It's not even certain whether you'll become an inner disciple at today's ceremony!"
