"I understand." Ling Chen nodded. This was undoubtedly a test for him.
In the Divine Intent Sect, there were at least four to five hundred Inner Disciples, including numerous elite talents. There were only a few dozen slots for True Disciples, many of which were already occupied by young prodigies. Therefore, the number of True Disciples only increased by three each year.
This did not significantly impact the total number of True Disciples. When True Disciples reached the age of thirty, they were either promoted to the rank of Elder or, if their abilities were insufficient, dispatched to outer regions. Of course, True Disciples were the core disciples of the Divine Intent Sect, and eliminations from their ranks were extremely rare.
However, this meant many talented Inner Disciples were held back, some of whom had already demonstrated strength comparable to that of certain True Disciples.
