Chapter 150: Chapter 127 The Empress Dowager Becomes a Heavenly Phenomenon (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_4
After the arrival of the Divine Sword Army in each county to take charge of the recruitment, they first arrested a group of Inner Sect Disciples and dependent power members from the Divine Sword Mansion, then began the initial selection by examining the bone structures based on the household registrars.
The initial selection continued for almost two months before it concluded.
By the time all the initial selectees arrived at the Divine Sword Sect, three months had already passed.
At this moment, the Assessment Hall of the Divine Sword Sect had gathered over thirty thousand initial selectees.
As for the first batch of selectees sent in, all who did not reach the Silver Bone level were directly eliminated, regardless of background, and sent back to their places of origin.
In the end, the first batch that could stay was initially more than ten thousand people, but less than three thousand remained.
In the subsequent Inner Sect assessments, Li Qian added from the original three tests to six, thus evaluating the initial selectees from a comprehensive perspective and maximizing the retention of the truly outstanding candidates.
After more than half a month of Inner Sect assessment, three thousand two hundred and eighteen individuals passed the test to become Inner Sect Disciples.
Additionally, there were more than eight thousand people who were willing to stay on as servant disciples.
Even as servant disciples, their innate Root Bone was above Silver Bone level. With sufficient effort, it was enough to become a basic Martial Artist in three to five years.
It took more than half a year for the recruitment to be perfectly completed.
Moreover, Li Qian had also established a complete assessment supervision system for the Inner Sect to minimize the possibility of problems during recruitment.
Of course, he also knew that it was impossible to be absolutely foolproof. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
There is no perfect system in the world.
The human heart is unpredictable and can always find loopholes.
However, he believed that to a certain extent, it could improve the recruitment situation of the Divine Sword Sect, allowing more martial arts geniuses to enter the Divine Sword Sect, making it truly strong.
As for the fact that he offended most of the high-level members of the Divine Sword Sect during this recruitment drive.
Even many of them hated him to the bone.
But would he care?
...
Zhenwu Road.
Wuzhou.
Ning Prince Mansion.
"Is the news accurate?"
Ning Prince, dressed in purple python robes, sat in the chair of honor, his face looking very somber.
"The prince has confirmed it, a terrifying Heavenly Phenomenon has appeared in the skies above Yu Capital... It’s identical to the one over two hundred years ago when Old Emperor Wu became a Heavenly Phenomenon Level Celestial..."
A person standing in the Great Hall spoke.
"It’s really infuriating. I didn’t expect her to achieve Heavenly Phenomenon after all."
Ning Prince’s expression grew increasingly grim. "Master Dan Yang, didn’t you say that by disrupting the world’s order and interfering with that national divine artifact, we could prevent her from achieving Heavenly Phenomenon?"
He suddenly turned his gaze to an old Daoist sitting cross-legged below.
This old Daoist had a sword on his back and a beneficent look.
He was the Supreme Elder of the Dachang Daoist Sect, Zhenwu Temple.
Zhenwu Temple, known as the ancestral seat of the Dachang Daoist Sect.
Even the title of the Zhenwu Road’s sealed kingdom originates from the Zhenwu Temple, which shows the great influence of the Zhenwu Temple.
No one expected that the Zhenwu Temple, serving as the ancestral seat of the Dachang Daoist Sect, would choose to support the Ning Prince Mansion.
"According to the calculations made by our three sects, there should have been no issues. The problem likely lies with the plans you made before. The three sealed kingdoms of Taixing Road, Kunwu Road, and Shu River Road are still under the control of the Imperial Family. This keeps the great trend on the side of the Imperial Family and has not completely disrupted that object."
Master Dan Yang sighed, stroking his beard which he nearly pulled out.
"Who would have known that such a big problem would arise over there? The plan couldn’t be completed. Master Dan Yang, what should we do now?"
Ning Prince was extremely aggrieved.
Originally, as long as the Great Empress Dowager did not achieve Heavenly Phenomenon, there was still a chance.
But now... hope seemed bleak.
"Since the previous plan has failed, the only path left for the Prince, or rather for all the princes of the world, is to lead an army to the capital for a loyalty visit, gather an army of a million Martial Arts Army, and suppress the Heavenly Phenomenon... Otherwise, once the Great Empress Dowager completely consolidates her realm, defeat is certain."
Master Dan Yang said solemnly.
From true phenomenon to Heavenly Phenomenon... there would be a period of instability.
This is the last opportunity for all the princes of the world.
"Master Dan Yang, wouldn’t it have been better if we went to the capital for a loyalty visit from the start? Before that devil woman broke through to her Heavenly Phenomenon, there would have been a greater chance of breaking through Yu Capital, right?"
Ning Prince furrowed his brows.
Behind the entire rebellion of the princes were, in fact, the push of the three major sects.
As one of the most powerful princes in the world, aside from his own ambitions, he also had elements of inevitability.
Many Heavenly Persons in his Ning Prince Mansion’s army came from the Zhenwu Temple.
The Zhenwu Temple was his biggest financial backer.
"Without chaos in the world, you cannot gather so many battle-hardened soldiers. Your mere Martial Arts Army would not even reach Yu Capital; you would be completely annihilated by the Martial Emperor’s Martial Arts Army, not to mention... there is also a reason which the Prince does not know."
Master Dan Yang sighed.
"What reason?"
Ning Prince couldn’t help but ask.
"Prince, first let everyone present leave, then I will tell you in detail."
Master Dan Yang said.
"You all leave."
Ning Prince waved his hand, and all the individuals in the Great Hall departed.
With the closing of the palace doors, the vast hall was left with only Ning Prince and Master Dan Yang.
"Master Dan Yang, can you speak now?"
Ning Prince asked eagerly.
Master Dan Yang’s lips moved slightly, using the Sound Transmission into Secrets technique.
Ning Prince listened, his expression changed drastically, almost crying out, "Master Dan Yang, are you sure?"
"I am certain."
Master Dan Yang nodded solemnly and said: "Prince Ning, this matter must not be disclosed. For now, it’s enough for you to know."
"If that’s the case, there’s indeed only one path available to head for the capital on a loyalty visit."
Ning Prince took a deep breath and immediately made a decision.
He no longer had any way out.
If unsuccessful, a thousand years of foundation of the Ning Prince Mansion would be destroyed.
Moreover, the reason Master Dan Yang mentioned was too horrifying.
