Chapter Ten Entrance

  Yang Chen turned his head with difficulty, looked at the sun and smiled helplessly, weakly muttering to himself: "Still... still... can't make it?"

  As soon as his voice fell, a strong sense of weakness surged up to Yang Chen's heart, and in an instant, his right hand loosened, and he directly fell from the cliff.

  At this time, a young man who was responsible for the assessment and had been observing Yang Chen all along suddenly rushed over and directly hugged Yang Chen into his arms as he fell.

  The young man landed steadily on the ground with Yang Chen, looked down at the weak Yang Chen in his arms, nodded in satisfaction and said, "Excellent endurance, passed!"

  Yang Chen listened to that heavenly voice and a excited smile appeared on his face, then he directly fainted.

  The young man watched as Yang Chen fainted and fell to the ground. He immediately waved his hand, and the flying sword took him and Yang Chen directly to the top of the mountain.

  After the young man brought Yang Chen to the top of the mountain, there were 4 young men standing here. The young man standing in front was wearing a yellow robe, and the three young men behind him were wearing orange robes. Their status was obviously lower than that of the brother who stood in front and wore a yellow robe.

  In front of a young man wearing yellow clothes, there were 6 children lying there, all over their bodies were wounds and scars, unconscious.

  The young man gently placed Yang Chen beside the six children and said to the youth in front of him, "Senior brother, this child's willpower is excellent, he has passed!"

  The young man took a glance at Yang Chen, who was still unconscious, and nodded: "Not bad. Including the child you just brought over, there are now 7 people who have become our Tian Dao Sect's registered disciples!"

  The young man immediately turned to the three people behind him and said: "Take these 7 disciples away and take good care of their injuries!"

  Three days later, at the foot of Tiandao Gate Mountain, all the children who participated in the assessment stood here, but now they were divided into two sides. One side had 24 children, and at this time, they seemed to have lost all their strength, with pale faces, dull expressions, and silence.

  On the other hand, including Yang Chen and 6 others, all had excited expressions on their faces, forming a stark contrast with those 24 people.

  The Tian Dao Men was a Xianmen sect after all, Yang Chen had suffered such severe injuries at the time, and after three days of quiet recuperation on the mountain, taking the Tian Dao Men's medicine, his injuries had almost recovered, except for a slight pain in his right leg where the bone was broken, but none of this affected Yang Chen's mood at this moment, he had succeeded, he had finally become a disciple of the Tian Dao Men.

  "Twenty-four of you have failed the assessment, now all of you should follow your family members back home. If next year you are still under 13 years old and receive a wooden plaque again, you can continue to come and take part in the assessment!" The young man said expressionlessly, then turned around to face Yang Chen and the others, gave a slight smile, and said: "As for you all, now go notify your family members, let them return on their own, hurry up and come back quickly, I'll be waiting here for you!"

  Everyone immediately bowed respectfully towards the young man and rushed to run far away.

  Yang Chen instantly surpassed everyone, rushing to the first place, and rapidly rushed towards his father. It can be seen that Yang Chen was eager to tell his father this good news.

  "Dad, I passed! I passed!" Yang Chen excitedly rushed into his father's arms.

  The people surrounding them, listening to Yang Chen's words, those who were still coldly at odds with each other yesterday, all showed a hint of envy and fear in their eyes, subconsciously taking a step back.

  Of course, not everyone was like that. The elders of the other six children, upon hearing that Yang Chen had also been admitted, still had the same expression as yesterday, and hadn't changed at all. It was clear that they still looked down on Yang Chen and his father.

  "Great! Great! From now on, our Yang family will be relying on you!" Yang Chen's father said excitedly, clearly more thrilled than Yang Chen himself at this moment.

  Then, his father instructed Yang Chen a few more words and turned around excitedly to hurry back to the village to tell Yang Chen's mother the good news.

  Yang Chenmu saw his father off, a resolute look on his face, clenching his fists and muttering to himself: "I must work hard, I must work hard. My parents have suffered for me, especially my father, who was even beaten up just to send me here. This grudge I will not forget! Liu Feng! Liu Feng! I remember you!"

  Yang Chen glanced at the place where he hid his painting, turned around and ran towards the young man's direction. At this time, although he wanted to get the painting back, there were so many people here, if he took it back now, he would definitely be discovered by everyone, so he could only wait for another opportunity to come back later.

  When Yang Chen arrived here, those six children were already standing here, all waiting for Yang Chen's arrival.

  "I'm late!" Yang Chen bowed to the young Daoist priest and said with some apology.

  The young Taoist priest smiled and said, "No problem! Follow me! The Heavenly Dao Sect is full of restrictions all around, you must follow closely behind me. If you accidentally trigger the restriction, I won't be able to save you!"

  As he turned around, Yang Chen directly led the crowd towards the Tian Dao Gate. At this time, Yang Chen suddenly discovered a hint of something being off - that was the remaining 6 people, who seemed to have distanced themselves from him.

  Yang Chen is not a fool, thinking about it and he understood why these 6 people would distance themselves from him. It must be because of Liu Feng's reason, he had conflicts with Liu Feng when he first came, which made these people deliberately distance themselves from him in order to avoid offending Liu Feng, the disciple of the sect master.

  However, Yang Chen didn't care about their opinions, after all he came here to cultivate and not to build relationships.

  Under the leadership of the young man, everyone finally arrived at the Tian Dao Gate that they had been dreaming of.

  "I'll send you here, I hope some of you can become inner disciples. Go register inside, and someone will arrange for you!" The young man led Yang Chen and the others to a house, said to the crowd, then turned around and ignored everyone, walking away into the distance.

  Yang Chen and others looked at each other and walked directly into the house.

  Inside the house, there was a young man with an ordinary appearance, wearing orange clothes. The young man looked at the crowd as they walked in and glanced at them with a hint of disdain. He took out a registration book from one side and said, "One by one, come forward to register!"

  The child standing on the far right looked at others, took a step forward, and bowed respectfully to the young man, saying "Immortal, my name is Zhang Rui, I'm 13 years old!"

  "Senior, I'm Zhao Qian, and I'm 12 years old!"

  ......

  "Senior, I'm Yang Chen, 13 years old this year!"

  After the young man finished registering everyone, he casually reached into a small red pouch and pulled out 7 crimson robes and 7 wooden plaques, placing them on the table. "Our Tiandao Sect has strict ranks," he said. "You few disciples can only wear crimson robes for now. Once you become official disciples, you'll wear orange robes like mine! Then comes yellow, green, cyan, and blue."

  The young man looked at the crowd staring at the small red cloth bag in his hand, and then swung it in front of everyone, saying coldly: "As for this storage bag, you will have to wait until you become formal disciples before you can own one, don't think about it now!"

  Yang Chen listened to the young man's explanation of the color of his clothes, and suddenly remembered the three people who gave him a wooden sign, giving him the opportunity to enter this Tian Dao Gate. The three men were wearing green robes, which also meant that their status in this Tian Dao Gate was not low. He thought to himself, whether he would have the chance to see them again in the future, and if so, he must thank them sincerely.

  Everyone respectfully nodded their heads...
