"Li Yun, let's break up!"
On the bed, Li Yun, who had just woken up, looked at the Mysterious Woman before him with a confused expression.
"I know you're very reluctant."
"But, this is reality."
"In the past, I couldn't resist the engagement set by both our parents, but now that I've come to Tianwu Sect, I want to grasp my own life."
"Liu *Shixiong* has already promised me, as long as I follow him, he will provide me with resources and help me reverse the Innate state in the future, I don't want to miss it."
"I also hope you won't become jealous because of this, or even do anything extreme. People can't be compared. If you offend Liu *Shixiong* in Tianwu Sect, you won't have any place to stand and will only bring shame upon yourself."
"Think about it carefully, and don't appear before me again in the future."
After the Mysterious Woman finished speaking, she turned and left directly, with a trace of relief and a smile welcoming a beautiful future.
"What does that mean?"
"Just arrived and got dumped, such a cliché beginning?"
"But this world... Tian Gu Continent, tsk tsk, it's really vast and boundless, at least a hundred times larger than Earth in my previous life, right?"
Just as the Mysterious Woman was rattling on to herself, Li Yun, who had just transmigrated, had already digested the memories of his predecessor.
This world is called Tian Gu Continent, vast in territory, with flourishing Martial Dao, and a constant stream of powerful individuals!
The place he is located is called Tianwu Sect, subordinate to Xuan Yue Country east of Tian Gu Continent, and is one of the four top Martial Dao Sects in East Cloud Continent of Xuan Yue Country.
Tianwu Sect is located at Tian Dong Mountain in East Cloud Continent, established 800 years ago. The Sect Leader alone has been passed down for dozens of generations, and the number of Disciples who have emerged from Tianwu Sect exceeds ten million, truly a place where experts gather and Peerless prodigies emerge in abundance.
Up to now.
In the just-passed September, after Tianwu Sect once again opened its doors to recruit Disciples, the total number of people in the entire Tianwu Sect, from the Sect Leader to the Disciples, and then to the laborers... actually exceeded 200,000.
The entire Tianwu Sect is simply no less than a small city.
This small city can be said to be eternally prosperous and endlessly glorious.
Those who can pass the test and become Disciples of Tianwu Sect are all proud of it.
But precisely because of this.
All the pressure is also placed on the Disciples of Tianwu Sect.
Why?
It's too competitive!
Tianwu Sect was founded 800 years ago, and a fixed grading System for its Disciples has long been formed, or rather, this is actually also the System of various Sects in Xuan Yue Country today.
This System, from bottom to top, is: Outer Sect Disciple, Inner Sect Disciple, True Lineage Disciples, and the highest level, Sect Walkers, etc., four levels.
For the four levels of Disciples, the rights and status possessed by each level are different, and it can even be said that they differ greatly.
From the most ordinary Outer Sect Disciple with no privileges, to Sect Walkers who can represent the Sect outside and even participate in Sect decisions... that is a dazzling golden pyramid.
Sect Walkers standing at the top of the pyramid, looking down at the Outer Sect Disciples at the bottom, is no less than a god looking down on the mortal world.
May I ask, who wouldn't be stimulated?
Who doesn't want to achieve fame and success?
Who doesn't want to return home in glory?
Who doesn't want to become a Martial Dao giant renowned throughout the world?
Who doesn't want to become that golden carp that successfully leaps over the dragon gate among the thousands of carps attempting to leap over the dragon gate?
But just thinking is useless, Martial Dao emphasizes talent.
Talent includes things like Physique, bone structure, comprehension, and even Spiritual Roots, etc. Basically, every one of these is Innate.
If you are born with it, you have it; if not, you don't. It's basically very difficult to change it later in life.
This Innate difference basically determines one's situation after entering the Martial Dao.
Among the many talents, Spiritual Roots are the rarest. People born with Spiritual Roots who enter Tianwu Sect directly become Inner Sect Disciples. Upon entering, they Cultivate Innate martial arts, and after a few years of cultivation, they become a formal Innate Martial Artist.
As for those without Spiritual Roots, they are divided into nine grades of Aptitude based on their different talents, with the ninth grade being the lowest and the first grade being the highest.
Regardless of how high their Aptitude is, these people can only start as Outer Sect Disciples. Upon entering, they can only Cultivate Acquired martial arts and must undergo countless efforts, plus a bit of luck in the end, to reverse the Innate state later in life.
Among a thousand people, only a handful succeed.
Basically, they are all people with second-grade or even first-grade Aptitude.
Li Yun only has fifth-grade Aptitude. Entering Tianwu Sect with fifth-grade Aptitude is just barely reaching the threshold for Tianwu Sect to accept Disciples. The probability of successfully reversing the Innate state with this kind of Aptitude after some years is infinitely close to zero.
If you cannot reverse the Innate state, then you cannot become an Inner Sect Disciple.
If you cannot become an Inner Sect Disciple, Tianwu Sect cannot support you forever. With a limit of three years, all Outer Sect Disciples who have stayed in Tianwu Sect for three full years and cannot successfully reverse the Innate state must participate in the grand competition in June each year.
Those ranked outside the top thousand must leave the Sect.
Only those within the top thousand can serve in positions like deacons within the Sect, helping the Sect handle miscellaneous matters and temporarily stay.
But not forever, only for two years.
If you still cannot reverse the Innate state after two years, sorry, you also have to leave.
Then, large numbers of new Outer Sect Disciples are supplemented every September, which is like the graduation season in Li Yun's previous life.
Every June, crowds of people leave filled with disappointment, and then crowds of people come in filled with hope.
And from the day they enter, unless they are fools, almost everyone must understand one truth: to achieve something in the Martial Dao, they must fight hard for these three years!
"It's too competitive..."
"In this kind of environment, who the hell has the mood to date?"
"That woman just now seemed to be called Huang Yiyi, right... Tsk tsk, it's good that she's gone, it saves me from wasting brain cells thinking about how to get rid of her..."
Having finally come to such a vast Martial Dao world, he didn't want to come for nothing.
Even if he only had fifth-grade Aptitude and the probability of reversing the Innate state was very low, he still wanted to give it a try and absolutely didn't want to live as a social bottom feeder for his entire life like in his previous life.
He took a deep breath.
Li Yun's gaze quickly became clear and firm, and he got up and walked towards the door.
As an Outer Sect Disciple, he was not qualified to enjoy a room by himself and lived in a large communal room shared by eight people.
These large communal rooms added together formed a large courtyard.
Walking out of the room, he saw a flat courtyard the size of a basketball court, with several rows of old pines planted along the edges.
It was evening at this time, and the setting sun was in the west.
The pale red sunlight shone diagonally into the courtyard, a gentle breeze blew, and the leaves swayed with the wind, presenting a picturesque beauty of the setting sun.
Some Outer Sect Disciples living in this large courtyard each occupied a corner in the spacious courtyard, either practicing martial arts diligently while sweating profusely or holding a book and frowning in deep thought.
He had walked more than ten meters out of the room and hadn't met anyone who greeted him.
It was as if no one knew he existed; they were so engrossed in practicing martial arts that no one bothered to pay attention to anyone else.
Seeing such a scene.
Li Yun couldn't help but secretly grumble again, 'It's really f*cking competitive,' and then, just like before the college entrance exam in his previous life, seeing others working hard while he was idle, a strong sense of crisis inexplicably arose again.
"Everyone is working hard. If I don't work hard, damn it... I'll be a salted fish again in this life!"
"Damn, no, I have to go too..."
The more Li Yun thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Suddenly, he turned around sharply, wanting to go back to the room to get his copy of the Basic Stance Exercise, which was uniformly distributed to every new Outer Sect Disciple upon entry.
