Starting With 100 Million Lives
Chapter 174: Unprecedented Recruitment Scale
CHAPTER 174: CHAPTER 174: UNPRECEDENTED RECRUITMENT SCALE
"Recruit?"
The disciples looked at each other, wondering if this was too soon.
It hadn’t even been a year since the last recruitment.
"What, you guys don’t want to?"
Luo Yuan immediately laughed and said, "Of course not!"
"We really want to!"
"We couldn’t wish for it more."
Feixian Sect had too few people, it was quite desolate.
Although the recent arrival of the Heart Division brought some people, they were ultimately not part of the same sect.
Not to mention, they were usually far apart, rarely meeting each other.
"Sect Leader?"
Wei Miao asked, "The newcomers this time are the fourth generation disciples, right?"
Jiang Cheng nodded.
Immediately, the young man got excited, "Haha, I didn’t expect I’d become someone else’s master so soon after joining!"
Other third-generation disciples also began to laugh.
"That’s right, that’s right, suddenly I’m looking forward to it."
"Let me tell you, the most talented disciple this time must belong to my Shu Yanglin!"
"Get out of here, the best should belong to Senior Sister Lin Ning!"
"Finally, there’s going to be a disciple to keep company."
Seeing the disciples so enthusiastic, Sect Leader Jiang sighed internally that he should have recruited people earlier.
The more people, the more points.
Shan Tai also stepped out with a smile and said, "Sect Leader, what level are we looking for this time?"
Qin Chang proudly said, "Now that we’re the strongest sect in the Thousand Spirit Domain, we naturally need higher requirements for talent."
"That’s right, at least the Saint Heir or Saintess level from the major Sacred Lands!"
Jiang Cheng curled his lip, you all really have the nerve to say that.
If it weren’t for this Sect Leader raising your talent levels by two, only Lin Ning and Ji Linghan had passed the Saint Heir level of talent among you.
"This time for recruitment, there are no limits on talent."
The whole room fell silent, even the usually most understanding Ji Linghan felt puzzled.
"Without talent restrictions, what standard will we use to recruit people?"
Luo Yuan also said, "If there’s no limit on talent, then Feixian Sect will be overcrowded."
Jiang Cheng waved his hand, "Not only is there no limit on talent, but also no limit on background and cultivation. Whether it’s Body Tempering or Ascending to Saint, all can apply."
Ascending to Saint is just a saying, those at that level definitely already have a sect.
The reason he’s not limiting talent is not because talent is unimportant.
It’s because he can enhance talent, even if it’s a hopeless case, given a few days of head patting, they would eventually transform into third-class or even second-class talent.
The prerequisite is having points.
Upgrading to third-class doesn’t require many points.
With the current stash of over ten billion points Jiang Cheng has, it’s just a drop in the bucket.
The only sect in this world capable of ignoring talent conditions is none other than his Feixian Sect.
Mo Chen had previously explained to him when discussing the Immortal Realm situation that martial artists from the Lower Realm ascending usually accomplish something great.
It’s because these ascenders, besides talent, mostly excel in comprehension, temperament, willpower, strategy, finesse, and fortune.
And now, Jiang Cheng wants to select a group of such outstanding individuals.
Ascenders of the Saint Tier are the leaders of various domains, so he definitely can’t recruit them.
Therefore, he’ll recruit a batch with similar potential but limited by poor talent and weak strength.
He can help with the talent, but other attributes depend on the individual.
"So how many are we recruiting this time?"
"One thousand."
With the Xuanji Map having merged 22 more fragments, it can now accommodate 1,245 people, and the time flow rate has reached 8,100 times.
If nothing goes wrong, all disciples of Feixian Sect can enter the Void Immortal Realm with this map.
Once he can gather a batch of individuals with extraordinary comprehension, steadfast temperament, resilient will, and outstanding strategic skills, and then elevate their talents...
It would be far more efficient than recruiting in the Immortal Realm.
In recent days, the entire Thousand Spirit Domain has been abuzz with talk of Feixian Sect.
Everyone thought Feixian Sect was doomed under siege.
Little did they know that in the end, Saint Bi Feng was killed, the Demon King submitted, and the Seven Great Sacred Lands all became vassals!
This outcome left countless people in shock for days, unable to recover.
Feixian Sect is now undoubtedly the dominant force in the Thousand Spirit Domain, and Jiang Cheng’s name is mentioned continually.
Sect Leader Jiang, you’ve dominated the Thousand Spirit Domain, this is a tremendously joyous occasion.
Shouldn’t there be a grand celebration to commemorate it?
Everyone’s been waiting so long their necks are sore and hair turning white.
Just waiting for your command to rush to the feast!
They didn’t receive a notice for a celebration, but instead, got an even more sensational message.
Feixian Sect is recruiting new disciples.
No limitations on cultivation, background, or talent...
It’s said that even a Body Tempering Realm can apply.
But in the end, only a thousand will be selected.
Everyone hearing this news seriously doubted its authenticity.
Previously, when the Nine Great Sacred Lands recruited, the requirements for innate talent were extremely strict.
Feixian Sect is even more prestigious than those Sacred Lands, and it doesn’t consider cultivation and talent when recruiting?
How is that possible?
But this message was disseminated layer by layer.
Under Jiang Cheng’s orders, the major Sacred Lands and the sects and empires under them in the Thousand Spirit Domain spread this news throughout their territories.
This evaluation starts with an initial selection.
No need to go to Feixian Sect, as the Thousand Spirit Domain is too vast.
For Body Tempering Realm cultivators, they might never reach the end in their lifetime.
Jiang Cheng personally used system tools to quickly create a thousand sets of evaluation array discs.
Since the level of these array discs isn’t high, a thousand sets only cost a few tens of thousands of points in materials.
He entrusted the array discs to his disciples and Heart Division experts, having them take the discs to all corners of the Thousand Spirit Domain.
Each set of array discs is divided into five categories, testing comprehension, wisdom, temperament, willpower, and luck.
Though luck seems unreliable, in the cultivation realm, it often represents a person’s fortune.
Each great array allows a thousand people to enter at once.
A thousand assessment points, each of the top 100 scores at each location passes the initial selection.
In total, 100,000 people will be brought to Feixian Sect to participate in the final evaluation, selecting the last 1,000 disciples.
For those participating in the assessment, the local sects and empires must not obstruct and must fully cooperate.
Once the message was confirmed, the entire Thousand Spirit Domain, both cultivation and mortal realms, erupted.
Countless people spread the word, countless people prepared eagerly, and countless people gathered at the assessment points.
The grand occasion is unprecedented, truly a great migration of populations.
Jiang Cheng underestimated his fame and Feixian Sect’s current renown.
At each of the thousand assessment points, over a billion cultivators came to apply...
To maintain order, local sects and imperial powers had to dispatch personnel to keep peace.
This is only possible with cultivators; in an ordinary world, it might lead to massive famines and trampling disasters.
The grand recruitment event of Feixian Sect started like this.
Sect Leader Jiang, observing the images of the massive crowds transmitted back through the Transmission Spirit Artifacts while inside the Secret Realm, couldn’t help but wipe some virtual sweat, wondering if he might have overdone it.
Everyone’s call for another banquet he heard these past couple of days too.
He originally planned to respond to the call and hold a real one.
But seeing this now, he figured it best to forget about it, how could he possibly host such an event?
