4 Divine Sec (1/2)
10 days later, a man was seen leaving a forest while holding a bag that was made out of the demonic beast skin. That man is Jiang Chen who had just broken through to Body-Tempering Stage 3. His clothing was in pieces from continuous fighting with demonic beasts. His hair looked hideous from fighting demonic beasts all the time. However, his face still seemed to carry the same handsome look. The bag that Jiang Chen was holding was filled with pieces of the demonic beast that he killed over the 10 days that he was in the forest. Jiang Chen made with way to Tang City and approached the gate.
”Wait!”
Someone shouted as Jiang Chen was about to walk through the gate. When he looked back, he saw the same exact guard that blocked him the first time coming up to him.
”You need to pay the fee to go through the gate!”
”Do you not recognize me?”
”Should I?”
”How about taking a good look at my face?”
The guard panicked and went on his knees.
”I failed to recognize Mount Tai. Please spare me, young master. I have a family with 2 children to feed. My wife just got pregnant and I was just greedy for money to support my family.”
”Alright, you can leave.”
Jiang Chen shooed the guard away and walk toward the gate.
”Thank you, young master.”
When he got back to the Inn, he was met by the maid. His entire body was indistinguishable from the days in the wild.
”Mr. Chen, Is that you?”
”Yeah, It is. I may need a bath soon. Do you know where I can take a bath.”
”There is a bath right outside over there.”
The girl pointed at a door and Jiang Chen and paid for one more night and hurried up to his room to drop all his stuff down.
”Ahhh, that was the best bath I ever had in my life.”
He went out of the Inn and saw a poster for recruiting for the Divine Sect. A notification popped up in his mind.
[New Mission - Join The Divine Sect (Reward: Movement Skill - Traversing The Heaven]
Jiang Chen made up his mind on joining and followed the posters toward the Divine Sect. As he was making his way to the sect, many disciples of different sects were posting up flyers or shouting. Jiang Chen moved toward the stand that said Divine Sect. A disciple who wore a red robe sat a the stand asked Jiang Chen...
”Are you here to apply for the Divine Sect?”
”Yes.”
”Name?”
”Jiang Chen.”
”Age?”
”18.”
”Cultivation level?”
”Body-Tempering Stage 3.”
”Here is your tag. Please wait over at the recruitment arena for further notice.”
Jiang Chen took the tag that had the number 5017 on it. He sat under a tree that was close to the arena and started to cultivate. A while passed before a booming sound echoed across the field.
”Welcome to the annual divine recruitment! I am the 24th headmaster of the Divine Sect! We shall commence the recruitment shortly!”
A bearded old man was standing at the front of the platform. He extended his hand and pointed at the crowd of people under him.
