Chapter 749: Rules for Accepting Disciples

After Chu Yang finished asking, there was no sound in the square and it seemed very quiet. Representatives from all sects looked at Xuan Chengzi.

Among everyone here, Master Dingguang is the most senior, but her strength is limited, and the Hengshan Sect is not a big sect. She still doesn’t have enough weight to speak on this occasion. The only person who can make decisions on behalf of the entire cultivation world is probably Xuan Chengzi. .

Xuan Chengzi looked serious and was stared at by everyone, so he stood up and said: "The Liyuan Sect has a profound foundation, and its inheritance is not inferior to that of many cultivation sects. Now that Chu Xiaoyou and a group of powerful disciples are supporting the sect, it is worthy of it." I have no objection to the establishment of a sect in Liyuan. I hope that Liyuan will have a bright future and can help each other, correct the path, and create a great spiritual practice together. "

Everyone who comes here basically knows that Chu Yang has good relations with the Huashan Immortal Sect, and Xuan Chengzi will naturally support him. He is also mentally prepared to say these words at this time.

So, Yu Wenshu stood up, raised his hands and said to Ru: "We, the Qingcheng sect, support the establishment of a sect in Liyuan!"

"I, Longhushan, also support it."

"I also agree."

"I agree, this is a good thing."

"The Liyuan Sect is worthy of being a spiritual sect, and I, the Shangqing Sect, have no objection."

Xuan Chengzi offered advice, and other sects also expressed their support. Only the elders of the two purely female sects, Penglai Island and Emei sect, did not speak out. However, they did not express any objection, and just sat with solemn expressions.

"I, Donghuamen, also support it."

After everyone finished expressing their opinions, Liang Qiuze stood up slowly and bowed his hands to Chu Yang.

Donghuamen and Liyuan had a long history of grievances. I originally thought that Liang Qiuze would learn from Penglai and Emei, neither expressing approval nor objection, and just wait and see what happens.

Unexpectedly, Liang Qiuze made his final appearance, which really surprised everyone.

Although it was unexpected, Chu Yang also handed over his hand and expressed his gratitude to Liang Qiuze.

At this point, the opening of the Liyuan faction has become a foregone conclusion.

Looking back at Xu Jingyi, Chu Yang took out a black jade seal and handed it over.

"This is?"

Xu Jingyi was slightly surprised.

Chu Yang explained: "Every practicing sect has a token of inheritance. This is the token of the leader of our sect, and it will be handed over to you for safekeeping from now on."

"Disciple must keep it safe!"

Xu Jingyi bowed in fear, then took the jade seal and carefully put it into the ring.

Then, Chu Yang took out a green long sword, handed it to Xu Jingyi and said: "As the leader, you naturally need to have a matching weapon to defend yourself. You are proficient in swordsmanship and are missing a decent flying sword. This sword is called Bixue. It is a middle-grade Taoist weapon with infinite power. It is a gift from me."

Taoist weapon!

Hearing this word, everyone stared at the Bixue Sword, eager to snatch it away.

"This sword is too precious, and my disciple's cultivation is shallow. How can I be worthy of this sword? I ask the master to take it back, and this disciple will never dare to accept it!" Yang used a low-grade Taoist weapon, which showed how precious it was. She was still in the Golden Core stage, so using a flying sword of this quality was really a waste.

But Chu Yang insisted: "Although you are a golden elixir now, it does not mean that you cannot improve your realm. This magic weapon is my gift to you, so just accept it."

"Then, it is better for me to be respectful than to obey my orders. Thank you so much, Master."

Seeing that Xu Jingyi could not refuse, she finally accepted.

"Okay, it's up to you to announce the next thing."

Chu Yang nodded and returned to his seat.

Xu Jingyi put away Bixue, read out the sect rules to the disciples below, and assigned errands to each disciple.

There are not many disciples in Liyuan now, and several Jindan disciples have obtained the position of elder. Su Yue and Jiang Xiaoyuan are also regarded as guest elders.

After the training, Xu Jingyi announced the development plan of the Liyuan.

"Since Aunt Gongsun of the Tang Dynasty, our sect has no longer admitted male disciples. Now that the Liyuan sect is opening, we will follow the old practice and only accept female disciples. In the future, our sect will not have outer disciples, but only inner disciples. I hope When you pass on the mantle, all junior sisters, please remember the rules of our Liyuan Sect.”

Xu Jingyi said.

After hearing this, everyone began to whisper among themselves.

Throughout the entire spiritual practice world, all sects adopt the inheritance model of outer sect + inner sect disciples.

For example, the Huashan Immortal Sect accepts disciples once every ten years, and selects young men and women with good qualifications to become apprentices. After several years of training, those who can stand out from the crowd will have the opportunity to become disciples of the inner sect and become elders after passing the selection and assessment. His personal disciple.

This process can be seen as casting a wide net to catch big fish.

The advantages of this selection model are very clear. It can recruit as many cultivation seedlings as possible into the inner sect. In order to enter the inner sect, these seedlings will work hard to practice and study diligently.

After the best ones emerge, the top management of the sect can easily recruit them into the inner sect as long as they give them a few quotas. After further training, they can become the core force of the sect, so the error tolerance rate is very low.

To train outer sect disciples, you only need some superficial skills and low-value pills. It can be seen as the sect takes care of food and housing, while the outer sect disciples work in vain, so the cost is very low.

This model is very cruel.

Hundreds of outer sect disciples have been training hard for ten years in order to compete for a few spots. In the end, many outstanding people were cruelly eliminated after just falling short, thus wasting their lives.

It was for this reason that Chu Yang decided to adopt a new apprenticeship model.

Only cultivating inner disciples, the selected seedlings may not be better than those of other sects, and may even be much worse. However, Liyuan is not like other sects. There are not many disciples originally, so the cultivation resources are naturally consumed less, and a large amount of resources are stored every year.

According to Chu Yang's thinking, even if the disciples recruited are not the best in cultivation qualifications, using these resources can also improve the strength of the disciples. When they succeed in building their foundation, the gap in qualifications will no longer be so obvious, and they can be regarded as standing on the same starting line as the inner disciples of other sects.

Doing so can be regarded as a more humane way of teaching without discrimination.

Among the people present, the two representatives of Penglai Island and Emei Sect seemed very worried.

The cultivation world sounds big, but it is actually very small.

Their two sects are also pure female sects, and they have not accepted male disciples since their establishment.

Because of this rule, it is much more difficult for the two sects to recruit disciples than other sects, and the disciples recruited are not the top ones. The sect leaders have always been troubled by this matter.

Nowadays, although gender equality is advocated everywhere, there is still some gap from true equality. For example, in the world of cultivation, the ratio of men to women who have the opportunity to practice cultivation is about four to one. In other words, the number of women in the world of cultivation only accounts for 20%, which shows the scarcity of female cultivators.
