The sky was still a touch of light blue, and the sun was rising slowly from behind the mountains.

The fog in the mountains has not yet completely dissipated, and the mist is as misty as a veil, entwining the mountainside and treetops.

The outline of the mountains gradually became clear in the morning light, and green trees began to appear, with newly sprouted buds dotted on the branches.

Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo came to the foot of the Sunset Sect Mountain.

At this time, several fellow disciples had already arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Today is the day when Sunset Sect recruits new disciples, which happens once every two years.

There are two registration offices at the foot of the mountain, one for mortals and the other for independent practitioners.

When Yuncai saw Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo, she walked up to them and asked with a hint of surprise, "Why are you here?"

Yuncai is the person in charge of the registration office. She has never heard the elders mention that Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo are coming here.

"We're just here to take a look, you don't have to worry about us." Xu Yeyu said.

"Where is your sister?" Xia Xiaomo asked.

"Yunyin should still be sleeping and will come later." Yuncai replied.

She and Yunyin had to work together to maintain order at the registration office.

Xia Xiaomo turned her head and glanced at Xu Yeyu.

If she hadn't gone to wake Xu Yeyu up, he might still be sleeping.

"People will come to sign up soon, I'll go and get busy first." Yuncai said.

"You go and do your work first. If you need any help, you can call me." Xia Xiaomo said.

Yuncai nodded and turned to leave.

"I registered here when I first came to Sunset Sect." Xu Yeyu said.

"When we just left the secret realm of the tomb, I asked you if you wanted to come to the Sunset Sect, but you refused at that time." Xia Xiaomo said.

Xu Yeyu was very unfamiliar with this world at that time.

Xia Xiaomo told him that if he wanted to join the Sunset Sect, he could come and sign up.

Xu Yeyu still hasn't figured out what the sect is, after all, he is an outsider.

He also thought that joining a sect would be restricted by various rules, so he had no intention of joining a sect.

"If you had told me at that time that if I joined the Sunset Sect I would have a house to live in and receive money every month, I would definitely have said that I would go." Xu Yeyu said with a smile.

Have a free place to stay, no need to spend money on a hotel.

I get some money every month, so I don’t have to worry about food money.

Xia Xiaomo smiled. Other independent cultivators wanted to find a sect to join because they were looking for the cultivation resources.

Only Xu Yeyu didn't care much about spirit stones and only cared about silver.

"Didn't you come to Sunset Sect in the end?" Xia Xiaomo said.

"I was thinking of joining a big sect, so I wouldn't have to worry about the Moon-Raising Sect causing trouble for me. It just so happened that the Sunset Sect was recruiting new disciples, so I came over to give it a try."

Xu Yeyu paused for a moment and continued, "When I came to register, do you know what stumped me?"

Xia Xiaomo asked curiously, "What's bothering you?"

"I didn't expect the registration fee to be ten low-grade spirit stones." Xu Yeyu said.

He thought the registration fee would be just silver, but he didn't expect it would be spirit stones.

Xia Xiaomo thought it was something else, but it turned out to be just the registration fee.

Most of the independent cultivators know that there is a registration fee to join a sect, so they will prepare their spirit stones before coming to register.

"Didn't you have even ten low-grade spirit stones on you at that time?" Xia Xiaomo asked.

"Don't even mention ten low-grade spirit stones. I don't even have a single spirit stone on me."

Xu Yeyu smiled and continued, "Later, I went to Elder Ren to sell some things and finally raised enough money for the registration fee."

"After I returned to the registration office, I saw that the independent cultivator ahead of me did not pay the registration fee. He just wrote his name on the form and left."

Xia Xiaomo nodded slightly. She could probably guess the reason.

"Because that independent cultivator has a letter of recommendation. If you have a letter of recommendation, you don't need to pay the registration fee."

Xia Xiaomo thought for a moment and continued, "I also have a letter of recommendation. If you wanted to come to Xiyang Sect to sign up, I would have given it to you."

After she broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, she received a letter of recommendation.

Originally, only inner disciples could get the recommendation letter, but Xia Xiaomo got it at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Elder He told Xia Xiaomo that if she met a capable person or someone with whom she had a destiny while gaining experience outside, she could give this letter of recommendation to him.

Several horse-drawn carriages drove slowly into the registration office. After the carriages stopped, the doors opened and more than a dozen young boys and girls got out of the carriages one after another.

Their clothes were different, some wore brocade clothes, and some wore linen clothes.

"There are so many people." Xu Yeyu said.

There are several more carriages coming this way.

The Sunset Sect takes a whole day to recruit new disciples, and there are already so many people just after dawn.

"After all, the Sunset Sect won first place in the Immortal Sect Conference, so it is normal to have a lot of people." Xia Xiaomo said.

Xing Tiansi has also been promoting the Sunset Sect in recent months, and many people in the county know that today is the day the Sunset Sect is recruiting disciples.

Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo turned around and watched Yun Yin running down the bluestone stairs.

"Junior Brother Xu, Junior Sister Xia, why are you here?" Yun Yin asked.

"We're just here to take a look, you don't have to worry about us."

Xia Xiaomo smiled and continued, "Did you sleep in? Why did you come here at this time?"

"You should have heard what my sister said. I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go help, otherwise my sister will scold me." Yun Yin said.

"Go ahead." Xia Xiaomo said.

After Yunyin left, Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo came to Elder Liu.

After a mortal passes the test and is found to have spiritual roots, he will come to explain his background.

After registering, independent cultivators also need to come here to explain their background.

"How did you explain your background before?" Xia Xiaomo asked curiously.

It was impossible for Xu Yeyu to explain that he came from another dimension and did not belong to this world.

It was impossible for him to honestly confess that the reason he joined the sect was because he was afraid of causing trouble for the elders of the Lanyue Sect.

Before Xu Yeyu could speak, Liu Qingfeng took over the topic.

"I still have some impression of him. He was born in a remote mountain village called Xujia Village, where farming and hunting were the main occupations."

Liu Qingfeng thought for a moment and continued, "Although life was poor, it was acceptable. I thought I would marry a wife and spend my life there, until a demon cultivator passed by Xujia Village..."

"I interrupted him afterwards. I hear this kind of story every two years. It's really too cliché," Liu Qingfeng added.

This kind of script is outdated. What is popular now is that people work hard on their practice just to get closer to the person they love.

Or a cultivator of a higher realm might pretend to be a mortal or a casual cultivator, join a sect and live an ordinary farming life.

Xu Yeyu really didn't expect that Elder Liu still remembered the background he had made up before.

Xia Xiaomo turned her head and looked at Xu Yeyu, and said, "It's really old-fashioned."

In fact, coming here to explain the background is just a formality. Whether it is true or false is not that important.

As long as the magic weapon on the table does not move, the person will pass this level.

If this magic weapon is moved, the background must be explained honestly, and the Sunset Sect will also investigate the matter.

Bloody Soul-Seeking Mirror, a third-grade magic weapon.

If this person has experienced extremely cruel killings before, or the number of killings reaches a certain level, the Blood Soul Detecting Mirror will be activated, and red blood patterns will appear on the mirror surface.
