After the assessment, the five lucky ones selected by Danta also entered the sect.
What surprised Ye Chen was that Gao Ming, who had been with him before, was also among them.
You know, in the previous soul value test, his soul value only barely made it into the top ten, and Ye Chen thought he would be eliminated...
It seems that when Danta selected these five places, soul control and fire control also accounted for a large proportion.
Of course, Ye Chen had no chance to communicate with the five people, because he was taken directly by Xuan Kongzi to the president's study on the upper floor of the tower.
After all, those five people only obtained quotas at most. Whether they can truly become core disciples depends entirely on their subsequent cultivation...
If they cannot obtain a place as a core disciple within a year and cannot break through to the seventh-grade alchemist, they will be sent out by Danta and go out to explore the world as outer disciples.
This is the case with the ancestors of the Song and Lu families in Xuantian City.
Don't think it's easy to break through to the seventh-grade alchemist level. Unless you're a freak like Cao Ying or a cheat like Ye Chen, someone like Han Feng, even though he possesses the Strange Fire and has taken away 90% of his teacher, Yao Zun,'s resources, still ends up stuck at the peak of the sixth-grade alchemist level...
He shook his head slightly in his heart and cast a contemptuous look at Han Feng, a guy who played a good hand at the beginning badly. Then Ye Chen collected his thoughts and looked at his teacher respectfully.
My apprenticeship gift...
Perhaps he had read the deepest thoughts in Ye Chen's eyes, but Xuan Kongzi smiled faintly and took out a rather ancient parchment scroll. He said, "Since you have become my disciple, as a teacher, how can I not give you a gift..."
"This is a scroll of ancient soul skills and soul seals. According to the level classification, it is also at the advanced Xuan level. With your current soul power, you can already practice it. Take it."
A flash of excitement flashed in Ye Chen's eyes, then quickly faded. He then looked up at Xuan Kongzi with a curious expression and asked, "Soul Skill? What is this? Is it a fighting skill that uses the soul to fight?"
Xuan Kongzi didn't think there was anything wrong, but patiently explained: "Ancient alchemists were able to maximize the power of soul power, even enough to rival the fighting skills of some powerful people. This method, the ancient alchemists called it soul skills..."
After a pause, Xuan Kongzi stroked his long beard and said with some emotion: "It's a pity that most soul skills have become extinct nowadays. Even in our Danta, there are not many that have been passed down, and the Soul Handprint is one of them."
Ye Chen nodded suddenly, but what he wanted more was not this soul skill, but the soul cultivation method...
"Teacher, since we in Danta have this 'soul skill' passed down from ancient alchemists, do we also have secret methods that can be actively cultivated to increase soul power?"
Seeing that Ye Chen could think of this, Xuan Kongzi nodded in satisfaction and replied, "Of course there is..."
"However, those secret methods that can cultivate soul power are even rarer than soul skills. Even within the Dan Tower, there are only a few, and they are completely extinct in the outside world!"
"Really?! Then teacher, I wonder if this disciple can practice it..." Ye Chen asked directly with a thick face.
Xuan Kongzi laughed heartily upon seeing this, pointed at Ye Chen and said, "You little fellow, you are really greedy!"
"hey-hey..."
Ye Chen just grinned foolishly and acted crazy.
Xuan Kongzi naturally wouldn't argue with him, after all, he was just an underage "child".
But regarding Ye Chen's request...
After a moment of silence, Xuan Kongzi said, "With your current soul power, it's more than enough to even reach the level of a 7th-grade intermediate alchemist. So your first priority now is to work hard to improve your Dou Qi cultivation and then be promoted to a 7th-grade alchemist..."
"You must know that biting off more than you can chew, so even if I pass on this secret method of soul cultivation to you now, it will do you more harm than good."
After hesitating for a moment, Xuan Kongzi finally offered a condition, saying, "How about this. When you become a seventh-rank alchemist and your Dou Qi reaches the peak of Dou Huang, I will teach you the secret method of soul cultivation."
Ye Chen nodded slightly and said softly, "A seventh-grade alchemist with Dou Huang-level Dou Qi cultivation? This condition isn't too difficult..."
Although these words made Xuan Kongzi on the opposite side puff out his beard and glare, they were also Ye Chen's true thoughts.
After all, he is now a sixth-grade peak alchemist, and his soul value exceeds one thousand. The biggest difficulty in his promotion to the seventh grade no longer exists, and the rest is just a matter of hard work.
As a core disciple of Danta, he would receive a certain amount of medicinal materials from Danta every month. When the time came, he would go into seclusion to refine pills and would not come out until he reached the seventh rank...
Moreover, the pills refined in this process can also be used to help improve one's strength, killing two birds with one stone.
Of course, Ye Chen actually had another shortcut. After all, he also carried a cheat. However, if he wanted to continue to improve the Star Essence Map, he would need a large amount of Star Essence. Although the star field above Shengdan City might be a good place for him to quickly accumulate Star Essence, Ye Chen couldn't bring himself to do it...
Because, at this moment, except for the three giants of Danta and the three elders, who are the absolute top leaders of Danta, no one else knows about the existence of the star field and the Three Thousand Flames. If Ye Chen brings it up at this time, it would be equivalent to confessing it himself. When Xuan Kongzi asks him about it, he won't know how to answer.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Chen said seriously, "Teacher, just watch me. I will definitely be promoted to a seventh-grade alchemist in the shortest possible time!"
Xuan Kongzi also acknowledged this point.
It has to be said that even he envied the incredible talent of his cheap disciple.
Even the Medicine Master who was able to dominate their generation was far inferior to his disciple at the same age!
Seeing Ye Chen's high morale, Xuan Kongzi smiled and nodded, saying, "Okay! But how much do you know about soul power?"
"Um, teacher, what are you talking about?" Ye Chen was a little confused about his teacher's thoughts and asked cautiously.
"Well, let's talk about the soul realm..." Xuan Kongzi originally wanted to teach this little guy, and also let him broaden his horizons and not become arrogant because of his talent, so he just said whatever he wanted to say.
"Soul realm?" Ye Chen frowned and said, "Regarding the soul realm, when the ancestor was here, he did talk to me a little bit, but he didn't say much, so if what I said is wrong, I hope you will forgive me!"
