Someone standing at the entrance of the Blazing Embers Sect began walking towards them.

He wore the same robes as Tang Lin, Jing Po, and Young Lady Luo but the color scheme was red and blue and he did not have a circle on his shoulder.

"Good morning, everybody." The man clapped his hands "My name is Dong Liu, and I am an outer court elder. I welcome all of you to the Blazing Embers Sect! Inner disciples, bring in your prospective talent slips up to me!"

All the disciples with the silver colored circles on their shoulders moved forward while one stayed back to care for the horses and the caravan.

"Come on in!" Collecting all the papers from the inner disciples, Outer Court Elder Dong called out "I will lead you to your entrance exam. Inner disciples, you have been dismissed. Those with True Nature Horses and the caravans, check them back in with the sect. Then everybody go back to your respective peaks and begin cultivating!"

"Yes, Outer Court Elder Dong!" The inner disciples bowed before leaving.

"Ill see all of you if you manage to become disciples." Jing Po smiled at the talent he had brought to his sect, especially Shu Jiang "I hope you become inner disciples!"

Before Shu Jiang could ask anything about the entrance test to Jing Po, he and Young Lady Luo quickly left.

"..." Shu Jiang sighed and looked for Tang Lin, but he had disappeared too.

"Iron Mouse, lets keep moving." Jiu Han beckoned him. Shu Jiang looked back to realize that all of the children from his village were waiting for him.

"Alright, but don call me Iron Mouse. Call me by my name." Shu Jiang said.

"Alright, Shu Jiang." Jiu Han nodded.

Instead of talking with all of the children, Shu Jiang instead led the group as they walked along with all the other children, being led by Outer Court Elder Dong.

They didn compete with him to lead, all the children followed behind him and Outer Court Elder Dong.

Shu Jiang smiled as he followed Outer Court Elder Dong, and soon they reached their destination.

It was a mountain. When he stood outside the Blazing Embers Sect, he saw a giant range of mountains inside the lands of the sect, and wondered what it was for.

"Welcome!" Suddenly, he heard a voice. When he looked at the foot of the mountain, there was a man standing there. He wore similar robes to Outer Court Elder Dong, he was probably an outer court elder as well.

"Hello, Outer Court Elder Nan!"

"Ill take the new talent from here, Outer Court Elder Dong. Do they know about the new change of rules?"

"No." Outer Court Elder Dong shook his head.

"Thats alright. Ill explain it to them. Do you have the inner disciples information papers?" Outer Court Elder Nan asked.

"Yes." Outer Court Elder Dong took out a few stacks of papers "All the inner disciples have not returned yet, these are only the first batch of this year."

"Alright." Outer Court Elder Nan shook his head in satisfaction "This is already a good bunch… Lets see… seventeen Low-Tier Spiritual Pills, two Mid-Tier Spiritual Pills, and… a single High-Tier Water-Attribute Spiritual Pill?!"

"What?!" Outer Court Elder Dong leaned over and read the name on the paper of the High-Tier Water-Attribute Spiritual Pill "Shu Jiang? Is Shu Jiang here?"

"Yes, Outer Court Elder Dong." Shu Jiang stepped forward from the group of children.

"You are Shu Jiang?" Outer Court Elder Nan looked at him.

"Yes."

"Hmm… good." Outer Court Elder Nan nodded, however his eyes were filled with countless emotions "Lets begin the test then, shall we?"

"Alright." Outer Court Elder Dong nodded as he excused himself and walked deeper into the Blazing Embers Sect. Perhaps he had other work to concern himself with.

"Okay… everybody, my name is Outer Court Elder Nan." Outer Court Elder Nan captured all of the childrens attention by calling out to them "While you were being brought here, you might have been told that after reaching the sect, you will take a test that will choose your disciple ranking."

That was precisely what everybody had been told, even Shu Jiang had been told that by his father. The young children nodded.

"However, the rules have been changed by the sect master today. She has decided to change the rules so that there is a chance that you can fail the test."

There was a moment of silence before an uproar was raised. While all of them were children, most of them were around eleven and twelve years old.

"That is not what we were told!"

"This is unfair!"

"No!"

"These are the new rules." Outer Court Elder Nan said "Now, you have two choices. First, you directly give up. We will send you off with 500 silver coins. Secondly, you can choose to take the test. If you pass it, you can become an outer disciple of our sect. If you fail, you will be given 1000 silver coins before being sent home."

The children instantly went quiet, their eyes widening and their mouths gasping. 500 silver coins was what their families would make in 10 years of nonstop working and zero spending!

With this new guise, all the children went quiet.

"Alright." Outer Court Elder Nan clapped his hands together "The test is simple. You must sit on this mountain for an entire hour without leaving."

Silence followed as Outer Court Elder Nan stared at the confused children.

"Do you all have any questions?" Having done this for many years, Outer Court Elder Nan understood these childrens confusions.

"Is the test just sitting on the mountain for an hour?" Shu Jiang asked. Obviously he knew that there would be some sort of magical twist, but he wanted to make sure that was the case.

"Yes, but the only rule is that if you fall unconscious, you will automatically fail." Outer Court Elder Nan nodded.

He didn divulge any important information about the test, and if I asked if there would be some sort of magical twist, it would be suspicious because the only connection to magic the children of this world have is the tales of the Legendary Hero… I have to shut my mouth for now, Ill have to improvise along the way once the cat is out of the bag. Shu Jiang thought as he stared at Outer Court Elder Nan.

"Alright." Outer Court Elder Nan nodded "You can go sit on the mountain now."

All the children quickly walked forward, and after climbing up a little, all the children settled down cross legged.

"Alright… The test will begin… now!" Outer Court Elder Nan yelled as a sudden pressure fell onto the children.

"AAH!"

"Agh!"

"OW!"

"AAAH!"

All the children smashed into the ground as an invisible pressure pressed over all of the children. Shu Jiang could feel pain coursing through his body, but he didn fall over. He was still sitting on the mountain.

Shu Jiang could feel his body was being penetrated by the invisible energy, probably the aforementioned spiritual energy, which was mentioned by Jing Po in the village dinner party.

It seemed the spiritual energy was changing something in his body, but it was extremely painful. He immediately closed his eyes to try to control the pain.

Suddenly, black liquid began to secrete from Shu Jiangs body. It dripped from his pores and pooled little by little on the ground, forming a black pool.

"Oh, look, a child has already begun to expel his impurities!"

Shu Jiang heard a voice but since his eyes were closed, he couldn see who it was, but now that he had noticed the voice, he heard many other voices. It seemed a crowd was gathering.

"Is his Spiritual Pill a high tier one?"

"Only High Tier Spiritual Pills can expel their impurities by such a low amount of spiritual energy being pushed into their bodies. I guess weve got another great talent."

"I wonder if this child will be able to compete with Luo Yin. If the inheritors hear about this childs talent, theyll be rushing to scoop him up, but if Luo Yin succeeds in recruiting him, she will definitely become the next sect master."

Most of them sounded like twelve and fourteen year old young boys and girls. It seemed that they were disciples of the Blazing Embers Sect who were allowed to watch the new talents entrance test.

So this liquid secreting from my body are the impurities and negative things in my body… Suddenly, Shu Jiang tried to understand what the disciples were speaking about.

He also felt his senses get sharper by the second, which helped him hear much better. It seemed their impurities in his body clouded his senses, making them weaker than they actually were, and a direct amount of spiritual energy pushed into his body can expel these impurities.

At this time, most of the children who were slammed into the ground got used to the suppressive force and finally sat cross legged again and concentrated.

"Agh…" Shu Jiang growled as he could continue to feel the liquid impurities trickle out of his pores, and the pain continued to increase by the second.

"Did you guys hear? If they collapse this time they will immediately be eliminated!"

"Really? But why?"

"I think its because the True Sword Sect has occupied the major cities around our sect, and most of them are the cities weve come from. Since our sect cannot recruit the people from the main cities anymore, we have to recruit the people from villages who know nothing about cultivation."

"So to make sure that we only get the best from the countless villages around the sect, theyve made it so that not everybody can get into the Blazing Embers Sect?"

"Yes."

Shu Jiang had managed to hear all of this, but he continued to stay quiet, the pain was becoming numb, and the amount of liquid leaving his body from his pores was increasing.

"Woah! Look at the high tier kid! The amount of impurities leaving his body… How?!"

Shu Jiang then opened his eyes after a long time, and he was shocked.

All around him, there were pools of black impurities that flowed down like a little stream down from the high point on the ledge he sat on. It smelled truly horrible, but Shu Jiang couldn do anything about the smell.

It seemed that the impurities were not stopping. At this point, the amount of impurities was even larger than Shu Jiangs own body. He didn understand how much of this black liquid was in his body, but it was horrifying to see.

Meanwhile, the chatter about him grew.

"Hey… what has this kid been doing? How does he have so much impure blood in his body?"

"The last time someone expelled so many impurities, it was when sect master herself took the entrance test."

Many minutes passed, and Shu Jiang heard a dull thump. It seemed one of the nineteen children had fallen.

Another dull thump. Another. One more fell and smashed into the ground because he was sitting on a high spot.

"Hmm… These children did not even begin to expel their impurities before collapsing. Well, they will live a good life anyway." One of the disciples sighed.

"Why is that so?"

"It is because for a normal mortal, if so much spiritual energy is pushed into their body, their body will become stronger as they strive towards awakening their Spiritual Pill. Even if they stop in the middle, their body will be much, much stronger than even an ordinary human."

"But it would be even better if they actually expelled their impurities and awakened their Spiritual Pill, would it not?"

"It would, but as they are simple peasants they don know anything about cultivation. If they managed to awaken their Spiritual Pill, then they would know what cultivation is. However, if they do not enter the sect they will not know what cultivation truly is. They will live their lives, coming so close to uncovering the true majesty of the world, but failing at a crucial point."

"It is very sad."

"Indeed."

Shu Jiang gritted his teeth as his body began to feel exhausted. The pain from the suppressive and penetrative spiritual energy was already numbed, but it continued to release more and more impurities from his body.

An hour passed, and the impurities continued to pour out of Shu Jiangs body with no end. It was becoming excessive.

It hurts so much… Shu Jiang thought. The pain, the feeling of weightlessness and emptiness finally began to hurt his mind as he felt the world around him spinning.

Suddenly, Shu Jiang felt a piercing pain. From his stomach, a bright blue light appeared, in the form of a circle.

"Woah! Hes already awakened his Spiritual Pill!"

"Good job, Shu Jiang." Outer Court Elder Nan nodded "You have become an outer disciple of the Blazing Embers Sect."

A burst of energy exploded from Shu Jiangs body as he closed his eyes. His Spiritual Pill had been awakened.
