Chapter 79 Lu Ming's Choice! Core Disciple!

Core disciples, promising talents for the Daoist lineage!

As soon as Xie Qingci finished speaking, all the disciples turned their gazes toward Chen Ping.

This person appears low-key and humble, yet unexpectedly, almost all first- and second-rate sects have extended olive branches to him.

Moreover, even the lowest level of treatment offered is for someone who is a core disciple!

As for the third-rate sects, they didn't invite him to join, simply because they knew Chen Ping wouldn't choose them.

"Where is this person from? Which powerful clan does he come from? His talent is definitely at least Grade A!"

"They seem to be from Chiyun County. They are probably from a force at the Bone Forging Realm level and possess Grade A talent. This is a talent that could give them a chance to pass the entrance exam of the Wuxiang Dao Sect. No wonder the Cangwu Sect directly offered them the treatment of a promising Dao lineage disciple."

"A promising disciple of the Daoist lineage, what does that mean?"

"From a small place? This is a status above that of a core disciple. Core disciples are still just disciples, but they are the future of the sect and almost represent its future."

"That's right. Although disciples of any level can participate in the Wuxiang Dao Sect's entrance examination as long as the sect allows it, most of those who have successfully passed the examination are promising talents of the Dao lineage."

"Alas, a promising disciple of the Dao lineage—with my talent, I'm afraid I have no chance. Every sect, even a first-rate one, only has three positions for promising disciples of the Dao lineage."

"There is another advantage to being a potential successor to a lineage: safety! On the surface, major powers cannot attack those who are potential successors to a lineage, otherwise it will inevitably trigger a war between the sects."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Chen Ping with either envy or jealousy. If he nodded now, he could immediately become a promising disciple of the Cangwu Sect.

Although the Cangwu Sect is only a second-rate sect, the resources that its disciples can obtain exceed those of the core disciples of first-rate sects.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Chen Ping stepped forward respectfully and said, "Thank you for your appreciation, seniors. This disciple chooses the Zhengyang Sect."

Upon hearing this, the disciples were stunned. They hadn't expected that Chen Ping would not choose the Cangwu Sect.

It seems that the title of a first-class sect is still too big for disciples from small places.

Among the disciples, some who knew the inside story secretly shook their heads, realizing that this choice was not a win for Chen Ping.

Unless the Cangwu Sect doesn't have the cultivation method he needs, the status of a promising disciple from a second-rate sect is definitely stronger than that of a core disciple from a first-rate sect.

"Hahaha—" Elder Lu Zhenggang of the Zhengyang Sect laughed heartily and said happily, "Not bad, not bad. Stand next to me, and I'll take you back to the sect in a bit."

"Yes." Chen Ping nodded, respectfully came behind him, and stood quietly.

Seeing this, Lu Ming frowned slightly. Chen Ping had actually chosen the first-rate sect, Zhengyang Sect.

Zhengyang Sect was his first choice, after all, Guo Yuan was in Tianheng Sword Sect and was the disciple of the vice sect master. If he went to Tianheng Sword Sect, he would obviously not be at peace.

Now that Chen Ping, that troublesome person, has gone to the Zhengyang Sect, his enthusiasm for going to the Zhengyang Sect has diminished slightly.

"Feng Qingzhu, a core disciple of the Zhengyang Sect, a core disciple of the Tianheng Sword Sect, a core disciple of the Wanxiang Sect, a core disciple of the Cangwu Sect—which one would you choose?"

After Chen Ping made his choice, Xie Qingci immediately began reading out the next name.

Lu Ming was taken aback. Feng Qingzhu's treatment seemed to be no less than Chen Ping's. Her talent was so good!

Indeed, her comprehension is terrifying. Her first self-created martial art, the Eighteen Forms of Green Bamboo, was only second-rate. Although it was based on the Dragon and Snake Staff Technique, it still shows her talent.

Upon hearing this, Feng Qingzhu was slightly surprised. Amidst the amazed gazes of the crowd, she stepped forward, about to speak.

Suddenly, the female elder from the Cangwu Sect spoke up: "I can give you the status of a promising disciple of the Dao lineage, how about it?"

Feng Qingzhu was taken aback upon hearing this. She had also overheard the discussions around her, and the identity of a potential successor to a Daoist lineage had many advantages.

She hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."

The female elder of the Cangwu Sect was overjoyed. She was unwilling because Chen Ping had not chosen her earlier. Feng Qingzhu's overall talent was also top-tier. If she could recruit Feng Qingzhu, she could return and give back a satisfactory answer.

"Come here quickly, I'll take you back in a bit." She smiled and waved to Feng Qingzhu.

Feng Qingzhu walked over and stood beside her.

Lu Zhenggang, Zhao Baishi, and the other elders exchanged glances, all feeling surprised.

The status of a disciple of the Daoist lineage is special, and it is not usually granted at the beginning. This was said under the witness of Xie Qingci, so it must be kept.

If you go back and find out that she is not a good person, or that she has other problems, wouldn't it be too late to regret it?

Sitting in the main seat, Xie Qingci secretly shook his head. Recently, a promising disciple of the Cangwu Sect had mysteriously disappeared, suspected to have been harmed by the Blood Worshiping Demon Sect.

With the entrance examination for the Wuxiang Dao Sect approaching next year, the Cangwu Sect has no choice but to accept it.

The titles of first-class, second-class, and third-class are not just empty names; they come with real benefits.

The Wuxiang Dao Sect holds an entrance examination every ten years. Sects that perform well are promoted, while those that perform poorly are demoted!

After each assessment, different levels of cultivation resources are granted based on the final results.

To some extent, the promising young disciples are the key figures in the major sects, and it is no exaggeration to call them the future of the sects.

"Lin Qiang————"

"Mo Ming————"

Next, Xie Qingci continued to read out the names one by one.

at last!

"Lu Ming, a direct disciple of the Zheng Yang Sect, an ordinary disciple of the Tian Heng Sword Sect, a core disciple of the Wan Xiang Sect, and a core disciple of the Cang Wu Sect, which one would you choose?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Potian and the other remaining disciples looked at Lu Ming with slight surprise.

Several of the people ahead of Lu Ming could only become ordinary disciples of first-rate sects, but Lu Ming was given the treatment of a personal disciple by the Zheng Yang Sect, which is quite good.

Lu Ming frowned. Was the talent he displayed still a bit lacking?

This was the result he had obtained after testing to the best of his ability without revealing his supernatural powers.

The Zhengyang Sect only offers the treatment of direct disciples, and besides, there's Chen Ping, that troublesome character—

After a moment's thought, Lu Ming immediately abandoned the Zheng Yang Sect and looked at the elders of the Wanxiang Sect and the Cangwu Sect.

If I go to the Cangwu Sect, with Feng Qingzhu, a promising disciple of the Dao lineage, taking care of me, life will definitely be more comfortable than at the Wanxiang Sect.

There's only one downside: I'll have to call her "senior sister" again.

Lu Ming was about to make a decision.

Suddenly, an elder from the Myriad Manifestations Sect spoke up: "Lu Ming, the Cangwu Sect's quota for promising disciples has been filled."

"If you go to the Cangwu Sect, you will have no chance of advancement unless the successor of the lineage dies."

"And my Wanxiang Sect still has one spot for a promising disciple."

"If you agree to join the Myriad Manifestations Sect, I promise to help you become a promising disciple of the Daoist lineage."

"Of course, whether it works out in the end depends on you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ming's heart stirred.

Once he passes the talent test, with his unparalleled talent, he is not afraid to compete with others.

As a core disciple, he can basically deal with Guo Yuan's threat. If he can become a promising disciple of the lineage, no one will dare to target him openly, and he can truly cultivate in peace.
