My brother is Shi Hao

Chapter 16: The new disciple of Wanjian Sect, a promising future

A biting cold wind howled past, and Shi Yi and Shi Hao gradually regained consciousness. Instead of the empty white void, they saw a majestic palace, its blue bricks and tiles, its carved beams and painted buildings, all showcasing the heritage of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

"It seems we have passed the test." Shi Yi dusted himself off, looking calm.

"Yes, I finally entered the Wanjian Sect!" Shi Hao jumped up excitedly, his eyes flashing with expectations for the future.

At that moment, an elderly man in a cyan robe, bearing the air of an immortal, slowly approached. It was none other than Elder Qingfeng, whom they had met at the mountain gate. He stroked his beard and smiled amiably, "Congratulations! You've passed the entrance test and officially become disciples of my Wanjian Sect."

Shi Yi and Shi Hao saluted quickly: "Thank you, Elder."

Elder Qingfeng nodded, his eyes filled with admiration. "You are all very good, especially you, Shi Yi." He turned to look at Shi Yi, "Those with double pupils are born with extraordinary vision, and their future is limitless."

Shi Yi said modestly, "Elder, you are too kind. I will practice diligently and live up to your expectations."

"Well, good, good." Elder Qingfeng nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Shi Hao, "You are not bad either. You have such perseverance at such a young age. You will become a great man in the future."

"Thank you for the compliment, Elder!" Shi Hao's cheeks turned slightly red with excitement.

"After the initiation ceremony, please follow me. I will personally arrange your training." After Elder Qingfeng finished speaking, he turned and walked towards the depths of the hall.

Shi Yi and Shi Hao looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes. They followed Elder Qingfeng closely, their hearts full of longing for the future.

Inside the hall, the air was filled with the scent of incense, and the atmosphere was solemn and dignified. Dozens of new disciples lined up neatly in the center of the hall. They came from different regions and possessed different talents, but at this moment, they all shared the same identity—disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

As Elder Qingfeng announced the start of the ceremony, the new disciples knelt down to worship the ancestors of the sect, swore an oath, and promised to protect the Wanjian Sect for life and promote the glory of the sect.

After the ceremony, Elder Qingfeng brought Shi Yi and Shi Hao to a secluded courtyard. The courtyard was small, but clean and tidy. In the middle of the courtyard stood an ancient sycamore tree, its leaves rustling as if telling the vicissitudes of time.

"From today on, this will be your residence." Elder Qingfeng pointed to the courtyard and said, "The key to cultivation is persistence. You must not slack off."

"Disciples will remember the elder's teachings." Shi Yi and Shi Hao replied respectfully.

Elder Qingfeng nodded and continued, "I have arranged training courses for you, including sword techniques, magic, and mental training. Tomorrow at noon, you will meet me at the martial arts arena."

"Yes, elder."

After watching Elder Qingfeng leave, Shi Yi and Shi Hao began to tidy up their own room. The room was not large, but it had everything you need, including a table, chairs, and a bed, and even a separate training room.

"Brother, do you think we will become powerful men like Elder Qingfeng in the future?" Shi Hao asked while making his bed.

"Yes, as long as we practice hard, we will one day become strong and powerful people!" Shi Yi said in a firm tone, with a confident light flashing in his eyes.

At this moment, there was a burst of brisk footsteps outside the courtyard...

After a burst of brisk footsteps, a handsome young man in a green shirt and a graceful young woman in a yellow shirt appeared at the gate. The young man smiled and bowed, saying, "My two junior brothers, it's new here. Are you getting used to it?"

Shi Yi and Shi Hao quickly stood up and returned the greeting. Shi Yi replied, "Thank you for your concern, Senior Brother. We are all fine."

"I'm your Senior Brother Li, and this is Junior Sister Ling'er." The young man in green pointed to the girl beside him. "We are both disciples of Elder Qingfeng, and from now on we'll be fellow disciples."

Ling'er smiled generously: "If you two junior brothers need any help, please feel free to ask. You are welcome."

Shi Yi and Shi Hao had just arrived at the Wanjian Sect and were unfamiliar with everything. With the enthusiastic help of their senior brothers and sisters, they felt warm in their hearts. Senior Brother Li and Ling'er were very enthusiastic. They took Shi Yi and Shi Hao to familiarize themselves with the Wanjian Sect's environment and taught them the experience of cultivation and the rules and etiquette of the sect.

Life in the Wanjian Sect was full and intense. Every morning, Shi Yi and Shi Hao would rise early to practice swordsmanship under the guidance of Senior Brother Li. Senior Brother Li's skill was exquisite, his techniques sharp and powerful, and Shi Yi and Shi Hao benefited greatly from it. In the afternoon, they would study magic with Ling'er, whose spell control was exceptional, and whose ability to wield it to perfection was breathtaking.

At night, Shi Yi and Shi Hao would meditate in their rooms, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to improve their cultivation. Shi Hao was exceptionally gifted and cultivated at an extremely fast pace, while Shi Yi, with the advantage of his double pupils, had a more thorough understanding of the techniques. The two encouraged each other and made progress together.

During their time in the Wanjian Sect, Shi Yi and Shi Hao experienced countless challenges and also gained precious friendships. They also formed a deep friendship with Senior Brother Li and Senior Sister Ling'er, and experienced many unforgettable adventures together.

However, even the quiet of life often hides hidden mysteries. One day, Shi Yi and Shi Hao were practicing near a forbidden area in the back mountains when they stumbled upon a hidden cave. Curiosity drove them inside, but the darkness was so intense that they couldn't see their hands in front of their faces.

"Brother, something seems a bit weird here..." Shi Hao said in a low voice, with a hint of uneasiness in his tone.

Shi Yi also sensed something was wrong, and he unleashed the power of his double pupils, trying to see clearly what was happening inside the cave. Suddenly, his gaze fell on a stone wall, on which were carved some ancient characters, emitting a faint golden light.

"This is..." Shi Yi was shocked, and an inexplicable premonition came to his mind.

Shi Yi carefully deciphered the words on the stone wall. These words were ancient and obscure, as if they contained some mysterious power. He whispered them one by one, and as he spoke, the words on the stone wall actually emitted an even more dazzling golden light, illuminating the entire cave.

"The Ten Thousand Swords return to their sect, the ancient divine weapons that seal the evil spirits and protect the people..." Shi Yi's voice trembled slightly. He realized that he might have touched upon an ancient secret of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. This secret might be related to the origin of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, or even to the safety of the entire world.

Shi Hao also realized the seriousness of the matter. He clenched his fists and whispered, "Brother, should we tell Master about this?"

Shi Yi pondered for a moment and shook his head. "This matter is of great importance. We don't know what kind of danger is hidden in it. If we tell Master rashly, I'm afraid it will alert the enemy."

At this moment, a low and hoarse voice sounded in their ears: "Curiosity often brings destruction..."

Shi Yi and Shi Hao were startled. They turned around abruptly, only to find no one behind them. The cave was completely silent, with only the sound of their breathing being clearly audible.

"Who is it? Come out!" Shi Hao shouted loudly, but the only response he got was endless silence.

Shi Yi grabbed Shi Hao and signaled him to stay calm. He once again released the power of his double pupils, trying to find the source of the sound, but found nothing.

"It seems that we have accidentally discovered something that we shouldn't have discovered..." Shi Yi said in a low voice, with a trace of solemnity in his eyes, "Let's go, let's leave here first."

However, just as they turned around and prepared to leave, the voice sounded again, this time, the voice was full of warning: "Don't try to pry into the truth, otherwise, you will bear the consequences..."

Shi Yi and Shi Hao suddenly stopped and looked at each other, each seeing a hint of determination in the other's eyes...

Shi Yi took a deep breath, suppressed his uneasiness, and turned to Shi Hao, saying, "Hao'er, we don't have to worry about anything. The Wanjian Sect has a long history. Since our ancestors left no warnings, this secret won't pose a threat to us for the time being. Our current goal is to improve our strength as quickly as possible. Only in this way can we have the power to protect ourselves when facing unknown dangers in the future."

Shi Hao nodded solemnly, clenched his fists, and looked determined: "Brother, you are right! We can't be bound by fear, we must work hard to become stronger!"

The two brothers stopped dwelling on the mysterious voice and left the cave. Outside the cave, Elder Qingfeng stood with his hands behind his back, looking at them with a half-smile. "Why, have you figured it out?"

Shi Yi and Shi Hao looked at each other and saluted respectfully, "Master, we are ready to accept the test."

Elder Qingfeng nodded in satisfaction and led them to an empty training ground. Many disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect had already gathered there, and they were all gazing at the two new disciples with curiosity.

"Are these two the new junior brothers? They are so handsome!" A girl in a goose yellow dress walked over with a smile, and her bright eyes looked at Shi Yi and Shi Hao curiously.

"Junior Sister Ling'er, stop messing around." A tall and handsome young man walked over, smiled and bowed to Shi Yi and Shi Hao, "I am Li Yi (Senior Brother Li), and I welcome you two junior brothers to join the Wanjian Sect."

Shi Yi and Shi Hao also politely returned the greeting. After a brief greeting, Elder Qingfeng announced the start of the assessment.

The assessment was not complex, primarily testing one's spiritual roots and comprehension. Shi Yi and Shi Hao both passed the test successfully, and their high talent astounded everyone present.

"Oh my god! It's actually a mutated thunder spirit root! It's rare to see it once in a thousand years!"

"That smaller one is actually the legendary Supreme Bone! Could he be the child of destiny?"

Faced with the exclamations around them, Shi Yi and Shi Hao remained calm. They knew that this was just the beginning.

Elder Qingfeng arranged for Senior Brother Li to take them to receive their disciple uniforms and training resources, and warned them, "You two are both gifted. You must not slack off. You must cultivate diligently and strive to become pillars of our Wanjian Sect as soon as possible."

"Disciples will remember Master's teachings!" Shi Yi and Shi Hao answered in unison.

As night fell, Shi Yi and Shi Hao returned to their room. They sat cross-legged on the bed and began to try to guide the spiritual energy in their bodies. However, just as they tried to mobilize the spiritual energy, a sharp pain suddenly came from their bodies...

"Ah!" Shi Yi and Shi Hao groaned at the same time, their faces turning extremely pale in an instant.
