Chapter 708: Disciples Gathering

tly complied when asked but couldn't bring herself to be proactive.Ye Bufan didn't say anything, just smiled at her, but his attitude was already very clear.Looking at his unconscious master, Leng Qin...20 minutes later, Wang Xue Ning pulled Ye Bu Fan's hand and hurried out. Ye Tian in black followed behind.

After the three people got in the car, she urged, "Drive faster, or we're really going to be late."

Ye Bufan said, "It's just to see the excitement, no need to be so anxious."

"What does it mean to watch the excitement This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you. Master Ge only accepts one apprentice every five years, and countless people have been waiting for this day."

Wang Xue Ning said solemnly, "I know you're capable too, but it's different. Only by becoming Master Ge's disciple can you gain the recognition of major families, including my father and brother."

Ye Bufan smiled and said, "Are you afraid they won't agree to our relationship"

Wang Xue'ning nodded. This was indeed her thought. As a young lady from a wealthy family, her marriage was not something she could control easily. She had to find someone suitable from a similar background.

"If I become Master Ge's apprentice, will your dad and brother agree" said Ye Bufan again.

Wang Xue Ning said: "Of course, Master Ge is a venerable immortal. To become his disciple naturally means a high status, but it's too difficult. Whether you can succeed depends on your fate."

Ye Bufan said, "Being a disciple is so awesome. If I were Master Ge's master, what would their reaction be"

Wang Xue Ning's expression changed: "Xiao Fan, I told you not to make this kind of joke."

"Okay, okay, I won't say anything."

Ye Bufan also knew that this girl had already idolized Master Ge to the extreme. No matter what he said, she wouldn't believe it. He would just know when he met her face-to-face.

At this moment, the phone in his pocket rang. It was Sima Wei calling.

The phone was answered and a voice said, “Xiaofan, where are you I’ve almost finished here, and I’ll be heading to Jiangbei soon.”

Ye Bufan said, "Then you can go directly to Master Ge's house. I'm going to attend his disciple acceptance ceremony."

Sima Wei said, "Has Master Ge's disciple acceptance ceremony already begun Can you still make it if you go now"

Ye Bufan said: "There's no way, I overslept this morning, but it's okay, you came to find me anyway."

Sima Wei said, "You woke up late Didn't you do something bad with Miss Wang"

"Uh...this..."

Ye Bufan looked embarrassed, glancing at Wang Xue'ning beside him. There was no way to answer this kind of question.

Sima Wei said: "You guy, did you give all my rations to others Wait and see how I deal with you." Ye Bufan quickly said: "No no, I have a lot here, your share is still kept."

Sima Wei let out a cold snort. "Since that's the case, I'll inform them to go to Master Ge's place as well and take the assessment together."

Ye Bufan said, "Okay."

Jiangbei City, Nancheng District, Master Ge's Manor.

Unlike the estates of other prominent families, Master Ge's estate was built on the southern slope of a small hill, facing south and backed by north. A stream flowed at the foot of the mountain, making the view picturesque and the environment pleasant.

Before the manor stood a vast square, capable of holding thousands, yet at this moment it was teeming with people, packed to capacity.

Among these people were commoners, wealthy young masters, officials' children, and even some martial artists who came here to try their luck.

After all, Master Ge's reputation is too great. As long as he can be accepted as a disciple, it can be said to be a step up to heaven.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the apprenticeship ceremony officially began. Master Ge's chief disciple, Fu Zhaozhe, led more than a dozen disciples to conduct an initial selection for those participating in the selection.

Although there were many people, the selection method was also very simple and quick. Fu Zhaoze and others used some simple Xuanmen spells to check the sensitivity of each person to the energy of heaven and earth.

Some people are exceptionally gifted in this area, with sharp reflexes and immediately making it onto the top 100 list.

And those who were unresponsive, or slow to react, were simply left out.

These people shook their heads and sighed, pounding their chests and feet. Some left directly, while others stayed to watch the show, wanting to see who would be lucky enough to become a disciple of Master Ge.

Those who made it onto the list of 100 are all jubilant and excited, but this is just the preliminary round. The final decision will still be made by Master Ge.

Shi Tianci took the pill given by Fu Zhaozhe and successfully passed the preliminary selection. He entered the manor gate with the crowd.

After walking a few steps, he was surprised to find Wang Ziyan from Fukang Pharmaceuticals in the crowd.

Wang Ziyan originally came to watch the excitement. During the selection, she stood among the crowd with a try-your-luck attitude, but unexpectedly, she was chosen. This was something she herself hadn't expected.

These people, led by Fu Zhazhe, entered the estate and came to the courtyard. It was exceptionally spacious; a hundred people could stand here without feeling crowded.

Around the courtyard, there were many onlookers, all successful people from Jiangbei's upper echelons of society.

Master Ge's estate was vast, filled with ancient-style buildings that exuded a classical charm. Opposite the courtyard stood a grand hall, intricately carved and adorned, radiating an imposing presence.

After everyone stood up, a loud voice rang out from the crowd: "Please invite Master Ge!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the large doors of the hall slowly creaked open, and Ge Wencong in a white robe walked out from inside.

He had white beard and white hair, coupled with this white robe, walking like a fluttering white cloud, with an ethereal air, bearing the demeanor of a master of one generation.

The eyes of the audience below were filled with respect and adoration. In their hearts, Master Ge was a god.

Fu Zhazhe strode up to Ge Wengong and respectfully said, "Master, these are the disciples I have selected. Please conduct the final assessment."

Master Ge nodded and addressed the crowd below: "If you wish to become my disciples and learn the Xuanmen input method, the most important thing is your mental strength and willpower."

As a practitioner of esoteric arts, no matter what situation you face or how great the danger, you must remain calm and composed. Only then can you fully harness the power of your magical techniques. What I am about to assess is your fortitude and mental strength.

After he finished speaking, his arms spread wide, and suddenly 100 ice spears, each about two meters long and as thick as an egg, appeared before him.

Although these spears were forged from ice, they were incredibly sharp, rivaling steel spears in their edge.

While the Ice Spear Technique isn't considered a high-level technique within the Xuan Men arts, summoning so many ice spears at once is definitely beyond the capabilities of an ordinary person.

Before advancing to the rank of Master Arcanist, Ge Wengong could only summon a dozen or so ice spears at most, and was nowhere near this level.

Seeing this scene before them, everyone around let out gasps of astonishment. It was just like a magical movie scene, beyond imagination. They couldn't believe that Master Ge was so skilled, truly worthy of being called a divine figure.

After Ge Master summoned these ice spears, with a wave of his hands, 100 ice javelins shot out like lightning. One spear aimed at an assessment target, right at the opponent's vulnerable throat.

"Ah..."

As the spear came hurtling toward them, the crowd instinctively gasped. Some darted to the side, others turned and fled, while some even dropped to their knees in terror.

Out of 100 candidates, only 8 remained, including Wang Ziyan and Shi Tianci.

And when those spears came before these men, they finally stopped in front of their throats without causing any harm.

Wang Ziyan swallowed hard, at this moment she already felt the sharpness of the ice spear. If she advanced another inch, she would be killed instantly.

Although it's known to be an assessment, this kind of pressure from the threat of death is not something ordinary people can withstand.crowd on the shore was in an uproar again. Although there were no legal requirements, fighting directly on the lake surface was already a huge challenge.Unless one's cultivation reaches the realm of a...
