()Dong!Dong!Dong!

Three drum beats resounded through the sky. At the foot of the Eight Immortals Mountain, there was a huge platform with more than a dozen seats. On it were five uniformly dressed people in white robes with an air of immortality. Standing were seven people wearing various robes.

The leader among the white-robed men is Elder Yanxu, who presided over the test of the Eight Immortals Sect.

"Brother Yan Xu, congratulations on your responsibility for accepting the disciples of the Eight Immortals Sect this year." A middle-aged man in black robes came forward, smiled and clasped his fists at Yan Xu.

"Haha, it turns out it's the head of the Jiang family, you're too polite." Yan Xu turned around and responded.

"Brother Yanxu, you're fine, but you still remember me, Cheng Qian." A thin middle-aged man came forward and said.

"Brother Cheng Qian is joking, how could I not remember you?" Yan Xu responded.

The Eight Immortals Sect's apprenticeship ceremony was being prepared. On the stage, the Eight Immortals Sect headed by Yan Xu and the other heads of several prominent families in Pingyang County were talking to each other.

The strength of the heads of the major families is only in the innate Qi training period, so they are not very strong.

But the reason why Yan Xu, the elder of the Eight Immortals Sect, gives so much face to the major families is because of the great influence of the major families.

Like the Cheng family, two of the brothers of Cheng Qian's generation entered the Eight Immortals Sect. When he was tested and found to have the lowest talent for cultivation, he became the helmsman of a secular family.

Among the next generation, his eldest son Cheng Guling entered the Eight Immortals Sect a few years ago. The second son is less talented and stays in the family to learn about worldly business and inherit the family business in the future. Today is his youngest son taking the assessment. If Not surprisingly, his youngest son will also enter the Eight Immortals Sect this year.

Like the Cheng family, this is a common practice among all the big families in Pingyang County. Therefore, no matter how the years change and the people in power change, the power of these big families has not weakened at all.

The Eight Immortals Sect has strict requirements and difficult tests for recruiting disciples. Except for the disciples trained by major families, the chances of disciples trained by ordinary small sects and small households passing the examination are very low.

Regarding this, the senior officials of the Eight Immortals Sect were also helpless.

When recruiting disciples every year, the major families are almost discussed. Among the major families, the one who can take the first place is the one from that family. Those who come from a small family are almost completely ignored.

According to the experience of recruiting disciples over the years, those who can win the first place are among the major families.

"Brother Yanxu, look at the children of the major families this year, how likely is it that Jiang Huhai, a member of the Jiang family, will win?" Jiang Yanxiao, the head of the Jiang family, asked.

"I heard that Cheng Yuan, brother Cheng Qian's youngest son, will also take part in the assessment this year. I think he has a greater chance of winning." Another bearded man said with a smile.

This bearded man is the head of the Xu family, a large family in the county. The Xu family did not come to participate in the assessment this year because he has a good relationship with the Cheng family, so he naturally helped the Cheng family speak.

Several family heads believe that the first place this year is not Cheng Yuan of the Cheng family but Jiang Huhai of the Jiang family.

There are only a few famous first-rate families in Pingyang County. This year, only the Cheng family and the Jiang family participated in the assessment. No children from other families participated. As for the heads of the second-rate families, they could only nod in agreement. Even if Someone from their family attended, but they didn't dare to say anything.

Yanxu just smiled and looked at it without saying much. Every year, the heads of these families would argue endlessly, and they were all very optimistic about the children in their own families.

Children trained by first-class families are among the best in terms of education and strength since childhood.

Liu Tian and a group of other teenagers who had signed up were under the stage, waiting for the announcement to begin the assessment.

Even if they saw the quarrel between several family heads on the stage, no one dared to speak and could only wait quietly.

The auspicious time has come soon!

The voices of the heads of the major families who were discussing gradually died away. Yan Xu nodded slightly and another middle-aged man, also wearing a white robe, stepped forward.

"Dear young heroes, today is the opening ceremony of the Eight Immortals Sect's triennial ceremony to recruit disciples. It is also the day of the apprenticeship assessment. Those who have already registered will be divided into groups and will be assessed in sequence. Those who have not yet registered can register on-site at the registration office."

The middle-aged man's voice was like a bell, very loud and could be heard clearly by everyone.

Liu Tian had already signed up and was assigned to the second group. Not far from them was a mist-shrouded entrance. People in the first group were called in. No one knew the specific test content.

No one knows the content of the Eight Immortals Sect's assessment, not even the major families.

Over the years, everyone who has participated in the test, whether successful or failed, has kept it secret and avoided talking about it.

So at this point, the children of the big family are the same as everyone else.

"Hmph, I must get the first place this time." Cheng Yuan's eyes flickered and he glanced around. He was assigned to the second group. Even he didn't know the specific test content, but he was very confident.

.

The content of the Eight Immortals Sect's assessments is actually the same every time. Although those who have participated in the assessment cannot speak directly, those who have participated in the assessment can train those in the family who are preparing for the exam, just like a person who knows the exam

Just like a teacher training his students based on the content of the test paper, his students' grades must be good, it just depends on whether they can get first place.

From this point of view, the children of the major families have a huge advantage.

Not long after the first group entered, the second group was called in and entered one by one according to roll call.

"Well? That boy named Liu Tian is actually in the same group as me." Cheng Yuan sneered when he saw this scene.

To pass the Eight Immortals Sect test is a piece of cake for him, and to deal with Liu Tian easily is more than enough for him.

"I didn't expect that Cheng Yuan would be in the same group as me." Liu Tian saw Cheng Yuan's sneer, but remained calm on the surface but was secretly wary.

Passing through the mist-shrouded doorway, the bustling frolic of the outside world seemed to be isolated for an instant, and there was silence all around, which was a bit scary!

Looking around, I found that I was at the foot of the mountain. I saw a black stone tablet standing in front of everyone. On the black stone tablet were the words "Road to Heaven" written on it.

"Everyone is welcome to take part in the assessment of the Eight Immortals Sect. The first level is the Road to Heaven. Starting from the foot of the mountain on the Road to Heaven, and climbing up the mountainside, you have passed the first level of the test. The one who passes the fastest is the one with the best score among everyone.

"Yes." A young man in a white robe had a cold voice, glanced at the crowd, and finally said slowly.

"I would like to remind you that there will be various unpredictable dangers during mountain climbing. Once a danger occurs that you feel you cannot handle and it is going to hurt your life, then crush the white letter talisman in your hand, and there will be dangers

My disciple of the Eight Immortals Sect will keep you safe, but of course, crushing the talisman also means that you will lose the qualification to become a disciple of my Eight Immortals Sect."

After everyone got a white letter talisman in their hands, the young man in white robe reminded him again.

Just after the young man in white robe finished shouting, a group of teenagers ran towards the mountain.

Among them, those at the forefront were Jiang Jia, Jiang Huhai and Cheng Yuan.

Liu Tian and others belonged to the second sequence, following closely behind these two people.
