Besides Qin Sang and Ruan Nanfeng, another senior sister named Wu Liuyue also won a spot. However, her cultivation was only at the sixth level of Qi Refining.
If Liu Yi had not died, the disciples of Quiyin Sect could have occupied one-third of it.

Qin Sang also saw several failed senior brothers and sisters, leaving the Bagua Forbidden Ground with worried expressions. He wondered what fate awaited them.

However, Qin Sang was still more worried about herself.
"From now on, you will all be disciples of the Yuanguang Gate. You must abide by the rules of the sect and never betray it. Otherwise, you will be killed without mercy!"
Yu Hua kept talking incessantly about the rules of Yuanzhao Gate, with a righteous and stern expression. In Qin Sang's ears, however, it sounded incredibly ironic.
"After entering the sect, you must first start as an errand disciple and hone your character. The allocation of chores should have been arranged by your Master Uncle Du himself, but he has something urgent to attend to today and is unable to make it. Therefore, I will take his place."
Saying that, Yu Hua took out twelve spirit wood waist tokens from his mustard seed bag. His gaze swept across the crowd for a few moments, then pondered for a while before taking out one and, with spiritual energy as his pen, inscribed it on the waist token before throwing it to Ruan Nanfeng.
"Ruannan Feng, you cultivate the Yin Fire True Method, and are responsible for tending the furnace in the fire refining chamber."
"Kunli..."
"Wu Liuyue..."
Each of the remaining tasks was arranged in order, and no one dared to disagree.
At that moment, Qin Sang suddenly heard her own name.
"Qin Sang, since it's a water-based cultivation technique you're practicing, then go to Xingyun Valley and take care of the spirit fields. Here you go."
Under Yu Hu's gaze, Qin Sang obediently replied "yes," stretching out her hand to take the waist token. She flipped it open and saw a few lines of writing.
The disciple who entered the Yuanzhao Sect is Xing Yungu, Qin Sang.
In the end, the twelve were assigned to different locations. Ruan Nanfeng went to the Huoyan chamber, while Wu Liuyue went to the Huan Yao Ling. They didn't sound like important places, and judging by Yu Hua's tone, these menial tasks were quite arduous.
Qin Sang recalled the disdainful tone of the young man in fine clothes when he mentioned handyman disciples. He couldn't help but smile wryly. Joining a cultivation sect was for the sake of seeking immortality, but at the beginning, he had to do these chores. It wasn't just hard work, but it also took up most of his cultivation time. No wonder the young man in fine clothes looked down on them.
“You all do your best, the sect will see it in their eyes. If you are diligent enough, being accepted as a true disciple by a Foundation Establishment elder is quite common.”
Yu Hua encouraged them with a few words, and as they spoke, the moonlit raft was already approaching the gate of Yuang Zhao Men.

Just then, a streak of light shot out from the mountains nearby. A thin, middle-aged man in his fifties or sixties, with a worried expression, wearing a blue Taoist robe and stepping on a green bamboo pole, flew towards them at high speed.
"Senior Brother Du!"
Luan Shan hurriedly stopped the Moon-Crossing Raft and, along with Yu Hua, bowed to greet the arriving people.
Zhao Yan claimed to pay respects to Master Du, and Qin Sang and the others followed suit. They had long since heard from Yu Hua that this man should be Du Siye, and as a disciple's errand boy was supposed to be assigned by him.
“Master Du, wasn't there something going on in your family Why are you returning so hastily” Yu Hua asked curiously.
Du Siye shook his head, a touch of anger in his voice. "Let my younger brother see the joke. The clan's disciples are incompetent. They panicked at a little trouble and almost ruined my important matters. I have already ordered them to reflect on their actions."
Yu Hua comforted, "Brother Du, as the clan leader, it's not easy to manage a household. Don't let these trivial matters anger you. Rest assured, Brother, I have arranged these disciples according to your instructions. Take a look and see if there are any omissions that need adjusting."
“Oh”
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
The elderly man surnamed Du, after looking at everyone's nameplates, relaxed his expression and praised: "My junior brother Yu has done a good job distributing them according to each person's characteristics. There is no need to adjust them at all. Before, I just said it casually. I didn't expect Junior Brother Yu to run over personally. Du Mou would like to thank you very much."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
After complimenting Yu Hua, the elderly man surnamed Du turned his gaze to Qin Sang and the others. With a wave of his hand, countless objects of all shapes and sizes flew out from his pouch, densely packed, almost obscuring half the sky.
“These introductory magic tools, you all take them. Some are used for cultivation, and some are used when doing chores.”
Qin Sang saw several streaks of light flying straight towards him, and hurriedly reached out to catch them.
A dull, gray mustard sack and a book with the Five Element Incantations inscribed upon it.
The artifact consisted of a rather ordinary spirit sword. Its rank was merely that of an inferior magic tool. In reality, this sword was a flying artifact. It was not the same as a swordsman's sword flight, but simply a flying artifact shaped like a sword. Its speed was far inferior to that of riding the wind.
A piece of cyan Taoist robe, also an inferior magic artifact, it is impossible to rely on it to fight against others. However, after wearing it, it can isolate dust and dirt, keeping oneself clean and tidy, which is quite practical.
A bamboo mat woven from a type of water-heart bamboo leaves, as told by Master Du, was used for meditation. Sitting on the mat during cultivation had an excellent effect of calming the mind.
There was also a magical artifact that resembled a white cloud. Qin Sang looked around, and he was the only one who had this thing.
Various miscellaneous items, numerous and countless, were piled about. Qin Sang clutched a full armful, sorting them by category and storing them within his mustard seed pouch.
At this time, the moonlit raft had entered Yuànzhào Gate. At the front of a hut, Luán Shān set them down.
It is said that the head of Yuanzhao Sect is not one of the two Golden Core cultivators, but a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage. This includes Du Siye and others who, after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, had no hope of further breakthroughs. Due to their advanced age, they were assigned to manage mundane affairs of the sect.
Qin Sang had thought he would at least get to meet the headmaster of Yuan Zhao Men, but unexpectedly, he didn't even get an audience. As soon as they landed, Du Siye handed them over to several senior disciples and left on his own.
Numerous peaks of varying sizes, surround the imposing and towering main peak, Yuànzhào Fēng, which stands majestically in the center. This is Yúan zhào Mén's principal peak.

Qin Sang stepped on his spirit sword, following a senior brother surnamed Zhu who was pointing out the entrance procedures, nodding frequently.
It is said that the main peak is where the spiritual veins of all mountains converge, and the spiritual energy within the mountain gate is several times more concentrated than that of Kuiyin Sect.
Zhu Shixiong led Qin Sang around for a long time. Yuanzhao Peak and the surrounding mountains were full of forbidden areas. When they turned to a mountain behind, they saw a large complex of palaces.

"Qin, my junior brother, this is the Dharma Hall. Senior uncles and senior brothers often come here to lecture. Some lectures are about cultivation, while others are about guiding how to cultivate spells and manipulate artifacts. To listen in, you need spirit stones, and the amount varies depending on the cultivator's level. Even though your journey is arduous, your monthly salary is quite generous. You can attend several lectures each month."
Following Zhu Shidi's guidance, Qin Sang looked out into the distance for a while, and then Zhu Shidi hurried to leave.
"The mountain gate is guarded closely, I've explained everything to you. Now let me take you to Xingyun Valley. You're quite lucky, Xingyun Valley is in the inner sect. Though the chores are a bit heavier, the spiritual energy is much denser than the outer sect, and it's very close to the lecture hall. Plus, you'll easily encounter senior disciples, maybe even one will take you on as their apprentice."ered, "Floating Du County is no stranger to the fact that Pu Shan was originally the ancestral land of my Xie family!
