With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods -
Chapter 513 Sect Recruitment (3)
As they headed up the mountain, those that wanted to join the Love Sect found that there was a strange pressure that suddenly fell onto them.
They didn't know where this pressure came from, but they could feel it getting stronger with each step that they took up the mountain.
Since they only felt the pressure growing on them as they moved up the mountain, they knew that this must be the trial that they were facing.
They not only had to make it up the mountain in time, they had to do it while facing this pressure that fell on them.
This really could be considered quite the challenge…
But these were all determined young people that wanted to join the Love Sect and not a single one of them gave up.
However, even if they had determination, there was a matter of talent.
There were people that had more talent than others and there were clear forerunners that soon appeared in this trial.
One of them was naturally the strict young man who had stayed to listen to Senior Brother Ying finish his speech.
That young man had started much later compared to the rest, but he was blazing past them.
It was almost as if the pressure didn't do anything to him, even though it clearly crushed the others that he was passing.
Seeing this, Senior Brother Ying once again revealed a wide smile as he looked at the others. It was almost as if he was bragging about this kid to them.
They just looked at him with bitter smiles as they shook his head.
Since he had already called this kid, it wasn't as if they could do anything now.
So instead of getting hung up over this, they decided to replace disciples of their own.
After all, it wasn't just this one young man who was taking this trial, there were still many others that they could choose from.
In fact, it wasn't even this young man who was doing the best.
At the front of the pack were two people.
It was one blue haired young man and a purple haired young woman.
The two of them were going neck and neck as they rushed up the mountain.
The people that were closest to them were still only a fifth up the mountain, while the two of them were already halfway up.
It was clear that these two were on a completely different level compared to the rest.
But they still stopped when they reached halfway up.
That was because there was a second trial that was waiting there for them.
It was an illusion array that would tap into one's greatest fears.
Unless one could face their greatest fears, they wouldn't be able to break through this illusion.
So this was a test of one's courage and one's will.
Both of the forerunners stopped as soon as they reached the illusion array and both of them revealed strange looks as they looked at the space in front of them.
This wasn't an array that would show illusions, but rather one that directly projected illusions into the mind of the one trapped in the array. So they wouldn't be able to see what these two were seeing.
But they could tell from the look on their faces that whatever they were seeing had affected them quite a bit.
Now it was all about seeing if they could keep their minds firm and break free of this illusion array.
Unless they had a strong will, they wouldn't be able to face their fears and break free.
Time passed and the two of them just stood there for a while.
This gave some of the trial takers time to catch up to the two forerunners, but the moment that they caught up, they were all caught up in the same illusion array as them.
There were some that thought that they were smart and wanted to go around, but all they found was an attack array designed for cheating. It knocked them all the way back down the mountain and they had to climb up again to try the illusion array.
As more and more people were stuck here, there was less and less space to pass.
The ones that arrived late even had to wait for their turn at the illusion array since there was no space.
Some even had thoughts of attacking the ones stuck in the illusion array, but the same thing happened where they were knocked down the mountain with an attack array. However, they were much more seriously injured than those that had tried cheating by replaceing another way.
As they watched all of these kids being stuck here, the Love Sect elders couldn't help feeling worried.
This array was something that had been specially designed, so they had made it a bit harder than normal since they had wanted to raise the bar. But now most of the trial takers were just trapped here…it didn't seem like it was a good thing.
If none of them passed, then what would that mean for their Love Sect.
Well, the simplest answer was that it would mean that the sect recruitment would be a failure.
A sect recruitment where not a single person was recruited…if this wasn't considered a failure, then they really didn't know what was.
So Lin Fan and the elders were considering secretly lowering the difficulty.
But then all of a sudden, there was someone that passed it.
They all immediately looked through the array to see who it was, but they found that it wasn't who they had expected.
Both the blue haired young man and the purple haired young woman were still trapped by the illusion array.
It wasn't even the strict looking young man that Senior Brother Ying had called dibs on.
Instead, it was this little girl who seemed to be no more than ten years old who made it through. She was much smaller than her other compatriots, which made her seem even more like a child.
But the calm look in her eyes showed that she was anything but a child.
She had arrived with the rest of the pack, but she was the one that cleared this illusion array the quickest.
It showed that she had quite the strong mind and will.
This was another good seed that they could train.
So there were a lot of secret glances cast at each other between the elders.
It would be a competition between them to see who would be able to recruit these outstanding seeds.
A while after the little girl broke through, the blue haired young and the purple haired young woman broke through the array at the same time.
Both of them looked at each other before turning away with snorts and rushing up the mountain again.
Not long after they had broken through the array, there were others that were breaking through the illusion array.
Seeing this, the elders of the Love Sect all let out sighs of relief.
At the very least, it seemed like this illusion array wouldn't mean that their sect recruitment had failed.
The strict looking young man also made it through the illusion array in the end.
As they watched them pass, the elders took note of the ones that passed after the blue haired young man and the purple haired young woman.
While they weren't as good as these two, they were still quite good for being able to pass through this illusion array.
While not all the elders would be able to recruit outstanding disciples, that didn't mean that they wouldn't recruit them at all. If someone showed good enough talent and the elders liked their personality, they would recruit them as disciples.
At the same time, there were still those Foundation Realm Cultivators from the Hidden Dragon Sect who became elders of the Love Sect's outer sect. They would also be looking for disciples to take under their wings, so they would be looking for people to take in during this sect recruitment.
It was just that to show their prestige, those Foundation Realm outer sect elders were watching from a different place.
But they were still watching to see if there were any good disciples.
The Love Sect had plenty of masters and few disciples.
That was the problem with the current Love Sect.
As they were watching, Senior Brother Ying suddenly asked Lin Fan, "Sect master, are you considering taking in any disciples?"
When they heard this, all of the other elders couldn't help looking over.
After all, if Lin Fan did take a disciple, then that disciple was a candidate for the sect master in the future.
Right now, Lin Fan only had Xiao Ming as his disciple which made it easy, but if he were to take another disciple…then there might be a competition between Xiao Ming and this other disciple for who would take over as the sect master.
There were pros and cons to this, but Senior Brother Ying and the others hoped that Lin Fan would think this through before doing something like this.
Lin Fan just gave a shrug and said, "If there's someone that catches my eyes, I might consider it. But so far, I haven't seen anyone that good yet."
By that…he meant that there wasn't anyone that he had seen with the Appraisal Eyes that was that good.
He had used the Appraisal Eyes on most of those who came to the sect recruitment, but he hadn't found any special kids yet.
So he really wasn't interested in taking another disciple, especially since he had other things to do.
Hearing this, Senior Brother Ying and the other elders just revealed bitter smiles, but they didn't say anything as they turned back to the images in front of them.
