C2 See the kin back.
Looking at the mountain gate of Seven Stars Sect from afar, it looked like a huge palace. It was no less than a hundred zhang tall and incomparably vast. It was entirely made of precious white jade. Under the illumination of the sunlight, it glittered brightly like the Divine Hall. The dragon marks on the coiling dragon pillars were vivid and lifelike, as if they were going to fly into the sky!
On the signboard, there were three big characters of the Seven Stars Sect. They were dancing like dragons and phoenixes, and their concepts were profound. They looked like horses that had taken off their reins and soared into the sky, leaving behind a trail of dust. They also looked like flood dragons flying in the sky. They came from nowhere and returned to silence!
According to the legends, these three words were written by the founder of the Seven Stars Sect - Seven Stars Monk. It contained great fortune and profound mysteries. It was a pity that no one has ever understood the true meaning of the word until now!
In front of the mountain gate, there was a plaza that was constructed from large limestone. The plaza was very large, and it was the size of over ten thousand acres of farmland. At this moment, the plaza was densely packed with people!
There were men and women among these people. They were all looking at the small mountain path in the Sect that was built with green rocks. Every time a young man wearing the uniform of a servant ran out from the mountain gate, a middle-aged man or two would immediately walk out from the crowd and greet them with a warm embrace!
The rules of the Seven Stars Sect was very strict. It was even stricter when it came to these lowest level servant disciples. Any servant disciple of the Seven Stars Sect was not allowed to leave the mountain gate without permission unless it was a matter of great importance!
However, the upper echelons of the Seven Stars Sect weren't really heartless. Every year, the family members of the servant disciple would have a chance to visit them!
June was the only month that the upper echelons of the Seven Stars Sect allowed servant disciple‘s relatives to visit them. Hence, from the first day of the sixth month onwards, the square of the mountain gate was filled with people for an entire month!
Yang Fann, who was wearing a black robe and had a slender body and sword-shaped eyebrows, stood under the majestic mountain gate. He held a large bag in his hand. Inside the bag were five hundred silver taels, a Upper-class Meridian Invigorating Pill, and a few sets of clothes that his mother, Luo Yun, had personally sewn.
He looked at his parents who were gradually disappearing into the distance. Unknowingly, tears began to roll in Yang Fann's eyes!
They had been separated for less than an hour after leaving home for a year. Who knew how sad that feeling was?
At this moment, Yang Fann even had the urge to follow his parents back. In the world of Warrior, the bloodline was respected. And he was the lowest grade of the low grade nine bloodline. He was only slightly better than the trash with a grade ten bloodline that could not be trained in martial arts. Even if he trained hard for his entire life, his achievements would be limited. He could only stay at the bottom of Warrior's ranking. He might not even be able to pass the Annual Examination in a month's time.
The Seven Stars Sect did not raise useless people. New Beginning servant disciples would be tested every year. Those who had yet to break through to the Second Layer would be mercilessly kicked out of the sect.
There were 108 Heavenly Meridian in the human body. Warrior's first realm, Pulse Opening Stage, needed to connec to these 108 Heavenly Meridians. The entire realm could be divided into nine levels, with 12 Heavenly Meridians as one layer. Each Layer had five small realms - Early, Middle, Late, Peak and Perfection.
In fact, the first round of the annual examination wasn't difficult. The first three levels of the Pulse Opening Stage was just the foundation of the foundation. Even for those with low ninth grade bloodline, as long as they were willing to work hard and cultivate for a year, they could easily break through to the Second Layer realm!
However, the current Yang Fann had only broken through ten Heavenly Meridian, and hadn't even broken through to the Great Circle of the First Layer. He could barely be considered to have broken through to the peak of the First Layer. With his low talent, breaking through two small realms in a short month was no different than a pipe dream!
"It's him! It's all that damned bastard! Otherwise, how could I not break through to the Second Layer! "
In terms of hard work, among all the servant disciples, he admitted that he could not be called number one, but he could still be ranked at the top. After a year of hard work, even if he couldn't break through to the Second Layer Late Stage, he wouldn't be bothered by the annual examination. All of this was because of that person. At some point in time, Yang Fann clenched his fists tightly, the veins on his forehead bulging. His eyes were spurting blood, like an enraged beast that seemed to eat someone!
After a while, Yang Fann finally calmed down the anger in his heart!
"Father and Mother, don't worry. Faner won't let you down!" With that, he carried the heavy package. Yang Fann's eyes became moist again. 500 taels of silver. To some of the disciples of major families, it really wasn't much. A random pill could cost more than this price. But to Yang Fann‘s family, it was practically the result of their parents being frugal for most of their years.
There was also the Upper-class Meridian Invigorating Pill. Although his parents didn't say anything, Yang Fann knew that this Upper-class Meridian Invigorating Pill was used by his father, Yang Yunfeng, to break through the bottleneck of the Sixth Empyrean. However, in order to fulfill his dream and give him a chance to stay in the Sect, his father gave up the hope of breaking through and left this Upper-class Meridian Invigorating Pill to him!
The love of his parents was as great as the heavens. For the sake of children, his parents would give up everything!
"Dad, mom, just you wait and see. Not only will I pass the annual examination, I will also successfully break through to the Outer Sect!" Yang Fann clenched his fists tightly and made up his mind in his heart. Although Yang Yunfeng didn't say anything, Yang Fann knew that his dad always had a regret in his heart, and that was that he didn't pass the Bronze Warriors' Lane and break through to the Outer Sect!
The Bronze Warriors' Lane was the final barrier for the servant disciple. Those who passed it would be able to reach the heavens in a single step, and advance to the Outer Sect. From then on, they would be superior to everyone else. However, the difficulty of the Bronze Warriors' Lane was not something to joke about. There were millions of servant disciple in the Seven Stars Sect, but among the hundreds of people who passed the Bronze Warriors' Lane successfully, there might not even be a single one!
Twenty years ago, Yang Yunfeng was once a servant disciple in the Seven Stars Sect. He also dreamt of breaking through to the Outer Sect and soaring to the heavens. However, his talent was low and his strength was limited. In the end, just like most of the servant disciples, he still fell in the Bronze Warriors' Lane!
"Father, I will definitely make up for your regret. I swear!" Yang Fann had a determined look on his face. Unknowingly, he recalled the shocking scene from last night.
"Outer Sect! I will definitely become outer sect disciple!"
Black Bamboo Peak - An unassuming mountain peak in the thousands of miles of Seven Stars Mountain Range. It was less than a thousand feet tall, it was named after the bamboo forest on the top.
There were hundreds of thousands of servant disciples in the Seven Stars Sect. It was naturally impossible for so many servant disciples to live in one place. Instead, they were scattered on small mountain peaks like the Black Bamboo Peak. There were different numbers of people. The majority were thousands of people, and the minority were only a few hundred people. Yang Fann was one of the 600 servant disciples in the Black Bamboo Peak!
There was a flat ground halfway up the Black Bamboo Peak. It was several hundred acres wide, and there were small houses built with red bricks on it. This was the residence of the 600 servant disciples in the Black Bamboo Peak.
At this time, all the servant disciples were free. They gathered in groups of three to five on an open space in front of the houses. Some talked, some held jars and ate big mouthfuls, and some were topless, rubbing herbs on their bodies.
Suddenly, an exclamation attracted everyone's attention. "Yang Fann is back! Yang Fann is back!"
