Chapter 9: Changing names and starting tests


    NOT EDITED


    .....


    There was arge crowd entering Vige 10, something that was quite spectacr considering the size of the vige and that the majority of the crowd consisted of wealthy merchants, nobles of the lower ranks, schrs of the southern province, and people from nearby towns. These kind of people were rare and almost none of them would enter into vige 10, not of their own volition, nor did they enter with such joy.


    Today is thest day for the great test of the Celestial Sword sect, but the number of people is doubling by the minute.


    Even if the test of the Celestial Sword sect was conducted within a small vige, the nearby nobles, merchants and even nobles of the capital, who had their vacation properties in isted locations, were headed to this small vige.


    How rare is the Celestial Sword sect to do mass recruitment? Thest time it was 100 years ago, this was due to the fact that there was a great fight between the great sects, which caused the sects to lose several disciples.


    Of course, this fight resulted in the Celestial Sword sect conquering two more empires to put under its wings, thus making it the hegemon of the Hua Continent. With this and the loss of several disciples and some Elders, the sect had to make great recruitment to get a lot of manpower to manage these empires and further strengthen the sect internally.


    Now, 100 yearster, the Celestial Sword sect is recruiting because it feared the war that would ur in the future, the sect wanted to prevent, of course, it was not just that great sect, but all the great sects were making their moves across the Continent.


    Not only the nobles, merchants, and schrs of the southern province but also the wandering cultivators and other geniuses of minor sects, were present at vige number 10 to take the test.


    It should be remembered that there are at least 10 high-grade sects under themand of the Celestial Sword sect plus 100 middle-grade sects and a few hundred low-grade sects that are under the regime of the great sect.


    Of course, all cults want to fly to a ce farther away, but in the face of absolute power, they only have to submit and win the favor of their suzerain, in which case the smaller sects send their best disciples to do the tests to have the chance to enter into the great sect of the Celestial Sword.


    Obviously middle and high-grade sects did not send their disciples to a small vige for selection, but for capital, even so, low-grade sects sent some of their disciples, so there were many talented young men in the midst of a crowd.


    Song Yan and Yi Yuga were in the crowd, their clothes were simple, they were not poor, but they were not luxurious either. Of course, as the children were without an adult, they still caught the eye, even if it was a little. Song Yan wore light blue clothing and Yi Yuga wore a green vest, the clothes were poor, but they were new and clean clothes.


    However, Yi Yuga drew attention with his beautiful green eyes, which stood out in a negative way, because the color of the iris of his eyes meant that he had mongrel blood.


    It was not umon for high-level demons, who could turn into human forms, to mate with human women, preferably martial cultivators, it was also not umon for high-level demons to have multiple women in many parts of the world.


    Since the powerful martial cultivators and human sects did not discover the high-level demon in their territory. Of course, human cultivators and sects were sometimes foolish and allowed high-level demons to infiltrate human territory, provided they did not cause confusion or were some kind of spy.


    It should be noted that the various ns, kingdoms, and empires of the domain of the devils were divided by species and levels, but the author will not address now as it is not relevant now.


    However, even if mating with the high-level demons was tacitly allowed, ordinary people and nobles did not know this tacit permission, so they had a tendency to hate foreign races, especially the devils, who were technically enemies of humanity.


    Then people had a look of disdain when they looked at Yi Yuga, but he did not bother with it, because in the vige where he lived, he also suffered from bullying and contempt, culminating in the death of his family, even though indirectly.


    What were scornful looks? Could they be eaten? Could they generate money?


    Already Song Yan who had hidden his sacred shine, of course, using a rare and bizarre item. No one would have imagined that the poor beggar would have changed the hemp rope that was holding the ring around his neck, for an even uglier rope!


    The rope was a dark color as if the surface had been burned and looked even older and worn, than the hemp rope he wore earlier. The rope against Song Yan''s lean neck made him look more pathetic and poor.


    Even with the sacred aura being hidden by this rare and bizarre item, the people who approached Song Yan had a good impression of him and even liked to be friendly with him.


    Hismon face amazed people, how a person with a simple appearance could have this kind of charismatic aura, some people even felt sorry for the 10-year-old boy, because he had no beauty and no wealth, but gave a very good feeling.


    Of course, things would change if he could pass the Celestial Sword test, but would the test be so easy that a 10-year-old who had no wealth or support could be approved?


    Atst, the gates opened and the people entered orderly, for there were some disciples of the Kingdom of the Foundation keeping order at the entrance of the small vige number 10. All were led to the central square of the vige, where there were two disciples of the Aurore Core kingdom in the center of the square.


    They went up in the air with a technique of levitating mid-level causing amotion among the crowd who looked at these disciples with eyes full of envy and admiration.


    "Silence," said the disciple on the right, who had long, light brown hair and gray eyes, had a delicate face and red lips, dark eyshes, and eyebrows drawn in a half-moon.


    The voice of this disciple echoed throughout the vige, as a spell all were silent, clearly, the disciple used some technique to silence the crowd, who was amazed and excited at the same time.


    "Our junior disciples will separate you by age and you will be taken to different areas for the test, so those who are eight years old and ten should go to the ce with the big green g. Those who are between the ages of 11 and 15 should go to the ce with the blue g. Those who are aged between 16 years and 20 years should go to the ce with the white color g. Those who have a letter of rmendation to the sect should go to the ce with the red g "said the disciple on the left, who had a long ck hair and dark eyes, he had arge sword on his back and a fierce look on his male face


    Soon some Qi Kingdom disciples arrived to separate the crowd led by Kingdom Foundation disciples, the children were taken to the area with the red g, the queue was huge, there were at least 400 children in line, not counting their bodyguards or rtives who apanied these children.


    "Close your eyes, for a strong light, will arise, this is the first test," said the handsome young man with long brown hair and gray eyes, his voice again echoing throughout the vige.


    This disciple of the Aurore Core realm is called Hong Yu and he is considered one of the most talented disciples when ites to the speed of the sword, at least at his level of cultivation.


    "This is the test to know the true age of each one of you," said the disciple with the most ferocious appearance, the long ck hair was messy, making him look like a savage.


    This muscr, long-haired disciple is named as Yun San, he is a very talented disciple of the branch of therge and clear sword, that the sect of the Celestial Sword has several branches within the sect itself, for there are several types of swords and techniques of cutting, breathing, swords, among others.


    Then everyone closed their eyes, although their eyes were closed, a blinding rity could be "seen" between their eyelids. Soon the candidates felt as if the light could prate throughout their body to the internal organs!


    "Those who are in the wrong ce of the race will be taken to the right ce, those who are below the age for this selection should go to the area with the ck g to proceed with the tests. Those above the age of the test will be taken out of the test areas. The age is up to 21 years as the age limit, over 21 is not qualified to do the tests, "Hong Yu said in his melodious and calm voice, again, echoing all over the ce.


    "However, those who are over 21 but are in the Aurore core kingdom, go to the tent with the yellow g," said Yun San in his voice thick and loud as thunder.


    Soon there were manyints and some people crying, other people were lucky and their children were talented and were taken to the area with the ck g. Song Yan remained in the queue for children from eight to ten years old, but Yi Yuga went to the blue g area because his true age was 11 years old.


    It was not very surprising, after all, it was very difficult for orphaned children to know their own age, let alone that there were no government-regted family records in small viges.


    The queue was restructured again and Song Yan kept walking as the candidates were grouped. Groups of 10 children were formed, who entered arge green tent and from there the group did not leave.


    Clearly, the children were sent for further testing or had a second exit somewhere else to avoid the humiliation of failing the test and of course causing the test leak or even disturbance of the children waiting in line.


    Soon Song Yan and 9 other children were grouped in front of the big green tent, there was a disciple of the Kingdom of the Foundation was in the entrance waiting for the signal to send the next group, but a colorful light appeared from out of nowhere, scaring the children and their guardians.


    However, the scare turned to admiration when they saw that it was the disciple Hong Yu, who was in heaven speaking earlier, the brown hair that was trapped in a silver harp swayed gently in the breeze and his gray irises glowed softly under the sunlight.


    "Junior Fai disciple, I will take care of this area," said Hong Yu with a gentle smile, the aura of this disciple of the Aurore Core realm was very soft and gentle, he carried a long thin sword at his waist, but it gave an elegant characteristic to him and not a feature of powerful martial artist.


    "Disyed!" Yun San murmured from above, casting a disdainful nce at his teammate. Soon Yun San also went down, but he went to the area with the 11-year-old to 15-year-old, taking the ce of his junior disciple.


    Soon people were encouraged to see these "powerful" cultivators guiding these participants, while the other groups could only look with envy.


    "Come in and tell me their names, their age, and where they came from," Hong Yu said with a warm smile to the children, who swayed their little heads like chickens pecking corn.


    The children were excited at the same time that they felt nervous, after all, this boy is a great martial cultivator! The silence reigned in the group of small children, who were looking at Hong Yu with theirrge, bright eyes.


    "So, can you tell me your name first?" Hong Yu asked gently to a thin child, who has amon face and long light brown hair. For a strange reason, Hong Yu felt his heart beat faster as he looked at this child, and a sense of sympathy and appreciation rose in his gaze.


    "My name is Zemin Yan, ten years old and Ie from Luan District, I''m an orphan," Song Yan''s voice was low as if he was a bit shy, but his gaze was determined.


    In the arms of Song Yan, now Zemin Yan, there was a puppy that is white and had pure blue eyes, he had a very fluffy coat and a lovely look. Of course, this dog was just a "normal animal", it did not look very powerful and had no fluctuation of energy, besides its beauty, this dog had a leash made of a ck rope that looked burned and beaten, which was tantly appalling whenpared to the cute puppy.
