Chapter 8 Selection

"This is your temporary residence for the next few days. There are enough rooms inside. You can each find a room to live in. No one is allowed to leave this courtyard for the next few days. Meals will be delivered by someone when the time comes."

Stopping in front of a house in a dense forest, the big man in purple turned to face the children, glanced at them, and said in a deep voice with a majestic look on his face.

Although Qin Fengming and the children felt a little helpless and frightened, no one dared to make any noise at this time.

In the early morning of the sixth day, when Qin Fengming and the children were still sleeping, they suddenly heard bursts of noise coming from a valley in the distance. Just when everyone was confused, the big man in purple who brought them here came. Suddenly appeared in the courtyard.

"Today is the day when my new disciple selection conference is held every three years in Luoxia Valley. I hope you will all work hard to be selected. I will take you to Cuizhu Peak to participate with all the disciples to be selected. This selection.”

Listening to the words of the man in purple, Qin Fengming knew in his heart that today was the key day to decide whether he could enter Luoxia Valley. He was both excited and a little nervous.

After the big man in purple finished speaking, he glanced at the children, said no more, and led everyone straight to the lively place.

Everyone came to a valley, where hundreds of people were already waiting. Among these hundreds of people, there were more than 200 children as old as Qin Fengming standing in the center of the small valley.

Looking at the strong young men standing around, wearing colorful clothes and holding swords, Qin Fengming was filled with envy. Needless to say, these young men were undoubtedly disciples of Luoxia Valley.

The big man in purple stepped forward quickly and rushed to a middle-aged man in yellow robe who was standing on a big stone. He bowed and saluted, "Hall Master Zhang, bring here the candidate disciples from Qi Jiacheng."

The middle-aged man in yellow robe lowered his head and looked at Qin Fengming and the others. He only said the word "good" and said nothing more.

The big man in purple bowed and saluted, and then ordered Qin Fengming and the other children to stand among the more than two hundred children.

Within half an hour, another wave of children was brought into the valley. Qin Fengming glanced around and found that there were more than 300 children in the valley at this time.

Just when Qin Fengming and the children were standing in the valley, with nervous expressions on their faces, suddenly a figure flashed. The elder Wang holding a feather fan that he had seen when he entered the mountain appeared on the huge rock in front.

"Brother Zhang, it's already late. The children participating in the selection must have arrived. Can we start?"

There was nothing unusual on the face of the man named Hall Master Zhang. He lowered his head and glanced, then nodded slightly. With a flicker of his body, his tall body was like a ball of cotton wool, floating leisurely on a taller rock.

When Qin Fengming and the other children saw this, the sound of lamentation filled the whole room. There was even a look of yearning in his eyes.

Glancing at everyone, Hall Master Zhang showed no expression on his face. He coughed lightly and said, "Zhang is the Hall Master of Bailian Hall. Today's selection meeting will be hosted by me, Bailian Hall. This selection meeting will be hosted by a co-organizer." Only those who pass the three levels can officially become my disciples of Luoxia Valley. The details of each level are described by Elder Wang."

After saying this, Hall Master Zhang stepped aside in a flash.

With a swing of his feather fan, the ruddy-faced Elder Wang immediately appeared in front of everyone.

"This time when selecting disciples from Luoxia Valley, there are three levels: the first level is a test of agility; the second level is a test of endurance; and the third level is like a test of courage."

After hearing what Elder Wang said,

Qin Fengming immediately thought to himself. According to the types of these three levels, there is nothing strange about them. Qin Fengming had already experienced this kind of test when he was hunting in the mountains.

If you want to pass these three levels, it won't be too difficult. Thinking of this, Qin Fengming couldn't help but feel relieved.

"The first agility test requires the selected disciples to climb the mountain peak to the east with bare hands within the specified time." While Qin Fengming and everyone else were thinking secretly, Elder Wang spoke again.

Following the direction of Elder Wang's finger, Qin Fengming and everyone turned around and looked at the mountain peak.

With just a glance, Qin Fengming could already see the mountain peak. Although the peak is only forty or fifty feet high, the trees and bamboo groves on the peak show traces of being deliberately cut down. Where there is a large gap, there are vines hanging down. Such a high mountain is not suitable for a child of about ten years old. That being said, the difficulty is indeed not trivial.

"The time limit is one hour. If you climb to the top of the mountain within one hour, you will pass. If you fail to arrive on time, you will be deemed a failure and will not be able to participate in the next two levels. Okay, let's start counting now."

As Elder Wang finished speaking, more than three hundred children in the valley, like driven chickens and ducks, swarmed towards the small mountain peak.

Duan Meng, who was standing with Qin Fengming, was only two years older than Qin Fengming, but he was more mature than the other children. At this time, a look of nervousness appeared on his face and he said: "This selection will determine our future destiny. I hope everyone will do their best." After saying that, he was the first to run towards the mountain peak.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, Qin Fengming looked up and found a place with relatively few people. He started climbing along the hillside with his bare hands.

Qin Fengming didn't seem too anxious about this kind of hillside where there were many places where he could draw on strength. Sometimes he grabs protruding rocks with his hands, sometimes he jumps nimbly from one tree to another, and when he encounters vines, he grabs the vines and climbs up, looking relaxed.

Although Qin Fengming found it easy, for other children, this kind of climb would be extremely difficult. From time to time, children rolled down the hillside, and some fell from the vines.

Although it seems that falling children are extremely dangerous, every time a child falls, a young man wearing five-color clothes will appear in time and reach out to catch the fallen child.

Most of the children who fell were sent down the mountain, but a few still chose to continue climbing.

As time passed and the children's physical strength declined, tense situations emerged one after another.

Although other children were in constant danger, Qin Fengming was in no danger. Half an hour later, Qin Fengming jumped over and reached the top of the mountain.

At this time, there were several children on the top of the peak, but none of Duan Meng and the others had arrived.

Glancing at the crowd, Qin Fengming discovered that these children were basically eleven or twelve years old, and all had a slightly strong physique.

As more and more children climbed to the top, Duan Meng and others climbed up one after another. Looking at Duan and the others quietly, except for Duan Meng, the others all looked tired.

When they saw Qin Fengming already standing on the top of the peak, everyone in Duan Mou showed surprise. Everyone remembers that when they first started climbing, Qin Fengming was the last one to set off.

At this time, there were already quite a few children on the top of the peak. Their clothes were somewhat damaged, and their faces looked even more tired.

After a cup of tea, two figures flashed on the top of the peak. Hall Master Zhang and Elder Wang suddenly appeared.

"Okay, the time is up. The children who failed to reach the top have lost their qualifications to compete again. Now we will gather all the children who have not reached the top. After the assessment, we will give some money and send them home together."

Facing the mountain peak, Elder Wang said solemnly with a serious face.

As the sound fell, many young people wearing five-color clothing appeared in the dense forest at the foot of the mountain. With their bodies swaying, they held the children who were still struggling to climb under their arms and ran towards the bottom of the mountain.
