The female supporting character in the cultivation world only wants to grow flowers and become stron

Seeing the villagers gathered around, Lin Yitang cleared his throat and said loudly, "Fellow villagers, we are disciples of the Taique Sect, here to recruit disciples on the orders of our sect. Our sect welcomes those with affinity; children aged six to fifteen are welcome to come and have their spiritual roots tested. If they have the aptitude for cultivation, they can join our Taique Sect and embark on the path of immortality."

These words immediately sparked a flurry of discussion among the villagers. Some looked excited, seeing it as a tremendous opportunity, while others expressed concern, fearing their children might not be qualified enough and would miss out.

Regardless, the villagers still called their children over.

The children lined up, looking curiously at the spirit-testing stone in Lin Yitang's hand.

"Don't be nervous, everyone. Testing your spiritual root is very simple."

Lin Yitang smiled and said, "Just place your hand on this spirit-testing stone, and it will reveal your spiritual root attribute. Those with spiritual roots can join my Taique Sect to cultivate; those without spiritual roots need not be discouraged, they can continue their studies or pursue other professions."

After he finished speaking, the children placed their hands on the spirit-testing stone one by one, all with expectant expressions on their faces, hoping that they would be chosen by the immortal.

However, reality is cruel. Among mortals, only one in ten thousand possesses spiritual roots. This small village has less than a thousand people, and not a single child has a spiritual root.

The test of spiritual roots was completed quickly.

Seeing that there wasn't a single person in the village with spiritual roots, Lin Yitang and the others were somewhat disappointed.

They thought this apprenticeship task would be easy, that even the most remote village could find someone with spiritual roots, but they didn't expect to encounter setbacks right from the start.

Lin Yitang took a deep breath and forced a smile, saying, "Don't be discouraged, everyone. This is just the beginning. The cultivation world is so vast; there will always be people with spiritual roots. Let's keep going and check out the next village."

Although the team members were somewhat disappointed, they still followed Lin Yitang's instructions, packed their belongings, and headed to the next village.

However, to their even greater disappointment, no children with spiritual roots were found in the next village. The same was true in the next village after that.

After visiting several villages in a row, they still hadn't recruited a single disciple, which was a huge blow to everyone.

Lin Yitang also felt a bit doubtful about life. Although those with spiritual roots were extremely rare in the mortal world, in the cultivation novels she had read, weren't there always several children with spiritual roots in a village of dozens of kids? There were even several with only one spiritual root.

As a result, when they actually searched for people with spiritual roots in the cultivation world, they went through several villages and hundreds of children, but none of them had spiritual roots!

Seeing that the team members were starting to feel down again, Lin Yitang comforted them, "It's okay, we've only tested a few hundred people. One in ten thousand mortals are born with spiritual roots, so if we test ten thousand people, surely some of them will be born with spiritual roots."

One teammate said dejectedly, "One in ten thousand, doesn't that also mean that out of tens of thousands of people, perhaps only one has a spiritual root? How long will it take us to find one?"

Lin Yitang comforted her, saying, "It's alright. There are many ordinary villages in the mortal world, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of villages. Surely we'll find the people we're looking for."

They continued walking towards the next village.

After visiting several more villages, the group finally found someone with spiritual roots. Although it was a five-elemental root, it was still a cause for celebration.

The child with five spiritual roots carried the hopes and expectations of the entire village. He happily boarded the flying artifact and bid farewell to his fellow villagers.

Lin Yitang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

They're open now! We finally found it! There was so much work involved, it wasn't easy at all!

Currently, only one in a thousand people has been found, which is actually a decent ratio.

Lin Yitang suddenly had an idea. It is said that geniuses have a connection. As the outer disciple with the best aptitude, is it possible that he could find them by feeling?

She decided to give it a try.

……

Lin Yitang stood on the flying magical artifact, closed her eyes, and circulated the spiritual energy within her body.

She tried to sense the fluctuations of spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and those destined individuals hidden among mortals.

At first, Lin Yitang didn't sense anything unusual. But as she became more proficient in controlling spiritual energy, she gradually noticed some subtle changes.

In some places, the flow of spiritual energy becomes slightly smoother, as if guiding her in the right direction. And when she arrives at these places, she often discovers children with spiritual roots.

Lin Yitang was overjoyed, knowing that her method had worked.

She divided her team into two groups: one group followed her to the village she wanted to visit, and the other group went to a village she had never been to before.

Because she is the captain and the top leader in the Southern Territory, she doesn't need to stay in just one small team.

After searching for more than ten disciples with spiritual roots in the due south direction, she went to the southwest and southeast directions.

As expected, in the days that followed, they became increasingly efficient at recruiting disciples. Although most of them were still ordinary disciples with four or five spiritual roots, they occasionally managed to recruit one or two outstanding disciples with three or even two spiritual roots.

A week later, the group had basically tested all the children in the mortal world, and had received more than a hundred children with spiritual roots. Among them, more than thirty were found by Lin Yitang, which broadened everyone's horizons.

"I never expected Senior Sister Lin to be so lucky, it's like she's divinely aided!" one of the team members exclaimed.

Another team member nodded repeatedly: "Yes, with Senior Sister Lin around, we completed our apprenticeship task quickly and well. It seems that the strong are indeed the strong, you can't argue with that."

Lin Yitang smiled modestly: "Actually, everyone worked very hard. Without your help, I couldn't have done it by myself."

"Senior Sister Lin, don't be modest. I heard that you were originally an inner disciple, which means you have genius-level spiritual root aptitude. Maybe you found her through a chance encounter between geniuses?"

Lin Yitang was embarrassed, not expecting that her disciple's casual remark had come true.

Then, the group took these disciples with spiritual roots onto the flying boat and headed towards the realm of the cultivation world.

Although many people with spiritual roots in the cultivation world will go to sects on their own, there are also many people who do not know their own spiritual roots, especially those from poor families who cannot afford to buy spiritual testing stones.

After all, not every family in the cultivation world has a cultivator. Most families are made up of ordinary people who do ordinary jobs and struggle to survive in the cultivation world.

Their task was to test all the mortal descendants who had not yet had their spiritual roots tested.

Especially in the villages and towns of the cultivation world, the number of villages in the cultivation world is not much less than that in the mortal world, and it would take a lot of time to test them all.

The airship arrived at a deserted mountain range and stopped on a flat area surrounded by mountains.

Following the secular method of personnel allocation, Lin Yitang once again dispatched more than ten groups to search in different locations.

However, this trip seems to be a bit troublesome.
