NOVEL NEXT Chapter 80: Chapter 80: The Conditions for Recruitment at the Ethereal Sanctuary
Upon seeing Tang San collapsed on the ground, motionless, Qian Renxue carefully examined him with her spiritual power. After a few moments, she stepped forward and stomped on his head twice, confirming that he was truly dead. She couldn't help but feel delighted in her heart.
You may wonder why Qian Renxue didn't just kick Tang San twice.
Naturally, it was because she couldn't act too violently in front of Lu Yunzhou.
Otherwise, forget just kicking him, Qian Renxue would have loved to feed him to the dogs right now.
Of course, It's possible that even the dogs wouldn't bother to look at him.
"Thank you, Mr. Lu."
After successfully killing the son of her father's murderer, a smile clearly appeared on Qian Renxue's face as she respectfully spoke.
"You're welcome."
After saying these three words, Lu Yunzhou's gaze inadvertently landed on the captivating, fiery figure of Liu Erlong.
"Miss Liu, it's been a long time, how have you been?"
A subtle smile curved the corner of his lips as he greeted her with a kind expression.
Upon hearing his words, Liu Erlong quickly responded, "Liu Erlong greets Mr. Lu, my respects."
Recently, Lu Yunzhou's name had spread far and wide across the world.
As for the reasons? There were several.
First, he had defeated the joint attack of Yu Yuanzhen and Chen Xin at the gates of Heaven Dou City.
Second, he had provided the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy with a top-tier "Simulation Training Ground".
Third, he had made the Nine Heart Begonia Ye family submit.
...
Ninth, he had founded the Ethereal Sanctuary and paved the way for cultivation!
It was because of these accomplishments that the current Lu Yunzhou was worlds apart from the Lu Yunzhou of Heaven Dou City.
And Liu Erlong, naturally dared not show even the slightest disrespect towards him.
Furthermore, Lu Yunzhou was someone whom the head of her Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, Yu Yuanzhen, had to respect and revere! So how could Liu Erlong, of all people, be disrespectful?
After responding, seemingly recalling something, Liu Erlong subconsciously swallowed a few times and, gathering her courage, asked in a tentative tone, "Mr. Lu, may I ask how the Ethereal Sanctuary recruits disciples and members?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yunzhou replied with a smile, "Oh? Miss Liu is also interested in the path of cultivation?"
With a clear smile on her face, Liu Erlong respectfully explained, "To be honest, Mr. Lu, I have a friend who is not very skilled in the Soul Master path, and I wanted to see if he might try your cultivation path in the Ethereal Sanctuary. So… I'm asking in advance how your sanctuary recruits disciples, so we can prepare accordingly."
After Liu Erlong finished speaking, Qian Renxue's attention was also drawn to the conversation.
Indeed, Qian Renxue herself was still unsure about how the Ethereal Sanctuary would recruit members in the future.
In the Soul Master world, when recruiting, the focus was usually on a person's innate Soul Power, but for recruitment in cultivation sects… how did they recruit members?
With this question in mind, Qian Renxue turned all her attention to Lu Yunzhou.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Lu Yunzhou replied, "How does the Ethereal Sanctuary recruit disciples, you ask? I suppose I can share this with you."
After speaking, Lu Yunzhou began explaining, "At present, the Ethereal Sanctuary recruits disciples, managers, attendants, and instructors. Among them, the method of recruiting disciples is quite simple—only two tests are required. However, to become a manager, l attendant, or instructor, five tests must be passed."
Upon hearing this response, Liu Erlong was both surprised and confused. "Two tests? Five tests?"
In response, Lu Yunzhou nodded slightly and smiled, "To become a disciple of the Ethereal Sanctuary, you must pass the Test of Perseverance and the Test of Character.
"Our Ethereal Sanctuary does not judge a disciple's innate talent or spiritual roots, but rather, we value perseverance and upright character."
He then glanced at Tang San's corpse and used it as an example, "Someone like Tang San, despite having sufficient talent, his character was so flawed that we would rather not accept him. After all, such people would only tarnish the reputation and rules of the sanctuary."
Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong nodded in agreement, "Indeed."
As the head of an academy, Liu Erlong naturally understood the importance of rules.
Rules, as a standard of behavior, are essential for the development of any faction. They not only determine the order, progress, stability, and harmony of the faction, but also the freedom, safety, welfare, and future of its members.
Moreover, as the saying goes, "Without rules, nothing can be accomplished!"
Thus, everyone understood the importance of rules. And someone like Tang San, who disrespects the rules,
it would not be excessive to say that killing him a thousand or ten thousand times is justified!
Nearby, Qian Renxue nodded in agreement after hearing Lu Yunzhou's words.
Yes, without rules, the entire Spirit Hall would fall into chaos.
Without rules, the entire Soul Master world, and even the entire Douluo Continent, would descend into turmoil.
Thus, the importance of rules is undeniable and self-evident.
At this moment, Liu Erlong suddenly thought that her "friend" might not be qualified to become a disciple at the Ethereal Sanctuary, right?
Because of this, she asked about the five tests for higher ranks, "Mr. Lu, may I ask what the five tests for becoming a manager, instructor, or attendant are?"
Facing Liu Erlong's question,
Lu Yunzhou immediately spoke up and answered, "The first test is the Test of Strength, the second is the Test of Ability, the third is the Test of Perseverance, the fourth is the Test of Character, and the fifth is the Test of Morality."
After explaining, Lu Yunzhou continued,
"To become an instructor, attendant, or manager at the Ethereal Sanctuary, strength is essential. Otherwise, how can one command respect? And one's abilities must not be lacking! Perseverance and character are just as important."
"As for morality, that's even more crucial."
"After all, a teacher without morality would hardly produce good students, would they?"
"Since we aim to make the Ethereal Sanctuary a righteous and prestigious sect, the morality of a teacher is of utmost importance!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong nodded thoughtfully.
In her mind, Yu Xiaogang was perfect in every way, whether it was morality, character, perseverance, or ability, he was practically flawless, although, of course, his strength wasn't quite up to par.
For this reason, Liu Erlong couldn't help but ask about the requirements for the Test of Strength, "Mr. Lu, what are the strength requirements for the Test of Strength? Is it at the Soul King level or Soul Emperor?"
Indeed, Liu Erlong's "friend" was none other than the ever-confused Yu Xiaogang, or rather, one might call him the "Pig Head Gang."
Normally, Soul Kings or even Soul Emperors would be eligible to become elite instructors at a high-level Soul Master academy or senior managers at a powerful faction.
Hence, Liu Erlong thought that the requirements for the Ethereal Sanctuary's instructors, managers, or attendants would be similar.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yunzhou couldn't help but chuckle, then replied,
"Soul King? Soul Emperor? Miss Liu, you must be greatly underestimating my Ethereal Sanctuary! To be honest, the minimum standard for an attendant, instructor, or manager at the Ethereal Sanctuary is early-stage Foundation Establishment, in other words, a Titled Douluo!"
Qian Renxue: "???"
Liu Erlong: "???"
Flender: "???"
…
Dai Mubai: "???"
