Chapter 128 - Water Dragon Sect Cultivator—Ji Yuan!

Yun Shangping flew on his sword to the front of everyone, smiling as he congratulated them."That is secondary...everything else is secondary."

Yun Shangping clasped his hands in his sleeves and said with a smile, "Since all of you have come to participate in the selection, you must have already prepared. We won’t waste any time. Let’s set off now and return to the Water Dragon Sect immediately."

It seems they won’t be returning to Zengtou City...Ji Yuan remembered that three years ago, when they joined the Water Dragon Sect, they all returned to their respective markets, making a brief display of themselves.

Ji Yuan had no intention of showing off; he only thought of going back to see what kind of Spirit Root Wen Linger had.

He thought to bid farewell as well.

Now it seems he can only wait until he settles down in the Water Dragon Sect before finding time to return to Zengtou City.

"Let’s go."

Yun Shangping waved his wide sleeve, and a stream of water-blue light flew out from his sleeve, growing larger in the wind, eventually transforming into a ship-like flying boat, suspended in front of everyone.

"Get on the boat, back to the sect."

Yun Shangping and Gu Liben, the two Foundation Establishment cultivators, boarded first, with the others following closely behind.

"Fourth Brother, let’s go too."

"Alright."

As the seven people present boarded, the flying boat turned around, finally rising into the clouds and heading straight north.

Ji Yuan stood at the edge of the boat, watching as Cloud Rain Marsh swiftly disappeared behind, feeling mixed emotions, as did the others.

In the morning, a fisherman; by nightfall, a member of the Water Dragon Hall.

Who wouldn’t be brimming with spirit?

After heading north for the time it takes to burn half an incense stick, Yun Shangping beckoned everyone over once again.

With the seven gathered around, he pointed forward, and a Storage Bag appeared in front of each person.

"Inside are some essentials for our Water Dragon Sect disciples, including two sets of standard Magic Robes, a standard flying Magical Artifact, the Scarlet Skies Skiff, and the disciple identity Token that has already been given to you. There’s also a Jade Scroll, containing information that our Water Dragon Sect disciples must know. After refining it, you will naturally understand."

Yun Shangping spoke slowly, "Now I’ll give you the time it takes to burn half an incense stick to familiarize yourselves with this content."

"After half an incense stick’s time, come over to register your information. Remember, this information will be recorded in the Ancestral Hall, and if there are any falsehoods, you will bear the consequences."

Hearing this, Ji Yuan felt a chill in his heart, but his hands didn’t stop moving.

The Storage Bag was not big, only about three feet square.

The contents were as Yun Shangping described.

Two sets of water-blue standard Magic Robes, with a blue dragon embroidered on the chest, a high-quality Protective Magical Artifact, though its quality was just average, not comparable to Bronze Armor, let alone the Hundred Fish Shield.

But free...just this alone was enough to show that this Magical Artifact was the best.

The Scarlet Skies Skiff was available for sale at the Hundred Treasures Tower in Zengtou City.

Ji Yuan refined it, planning to use the Scarlet Skies Skiff for travel in the future, as it wouldn’t attract attention. As for the Thunder Falcon Boat...it would be reserved for escape.

The most important was the Jade Scroll...with the infusion of Spiritual Qi, a wealth of information suddenly appeared in Ji Yuan’s mind.

Among them were various rules of the Water Dragon Sect, such as the rule prohibiting conflicts between fellow disciples.

It also included the map of the Water Dragon Sect, detailing the locations of each island and hall. For example, Ji Yuan knew that Pill Array Talisman was on Sifang Island, task assignments were on Thousand Mechanism Island, and the disciples lived on Chulong Island. The main island, also known as Water Dragon Island, was included among others.

There was a lot of information, no wonder Yun Shangping gave them half an incense stick’s time.

Ji Yuan hadn’t expected that Cloud Rain Marsh would be in the southwest corner of the Water Dragon Sect and occupied only a small area, even smaller than Chulong Island.

And this was just the sect’s territory...

Just this made Ji Yuan unable to believe how large Cangluo Continent truly was.

Great indeed, the larger the world, the more unlimited possibilities there are.

Half an incense stick’s time passed in the blink of an eye.

Everyone then came one by one to Yun Shangping to register their information.

Ji Yuan ended up being the last one, waiting until everyone else had finished before approaching Yun Shangping.

The so-called registration process consisted of filling in the required format on a piece of white paper, which Yun Shangping scanned with his Divine Sense, imprinting it all into the Jade Scrolls.

Extremely convenient.

Ji Yuan looked at the content on the white paper.

The content...was extremely simple, consisting only of the name, cultivation level, and Spirit Root.

It seemed the sect also knew to protect the disciples’ privacy...this allowed Ji Yuan, who had been worried for a while, to finally relax.

After filling in the information, Yun Shangping glanced at him and said something rare.

"Ji Yuan...a well-chosen name. Alright, remember to cultivate diligently in the future, and one day enhance the Water Dragon’s prestige."

"Thank you for the compliment, Elder Yun."

Ji Yuan hurriedly made a cupped fist gesture and stepped back.

Yun Shangping waved his wide sleeve, put away the table, and then glanced at everyone present, finally saying solemnly:

"Ji Yuan, come over here for a moment."

Ji Yuan: "???"
