“Elder Luo, we at Mount Shu need to recruit a batch of new disciples – arrange that, will you?”
Lu Changsheng summoned Luo Cheng, the Supreme Elder of the Xuan Sha Sect, and tasked him with the responsibility of recruiting disciples.
Lu Changsheng planned to gradually enhance the reputation of Mount Shu in the Immortal Realm. One of the purposes was to let the disciples from Qingyun Peak who ascended from the Mortal World to the Immortal Realm know where they were.
If the disciples of Qingyun Peak heard that there was a Mount Shu in the Immortal Realm, they would surely come to gather.
The Mount Shu in the Immortal Realm was also a trap for Xia Ningxue.
Although the Xuan Sha Sect in Cangyu was a minor sect, it had its own territory. With Mount Shu inheriting the influence of the Xuan Sha Sect, it was sufficient to recruit a group of Mount Shu disciples.
“I will make arrangements at once.”
Luo Cheng proceeded to recruit disciples.
“The Mount Shu Disciple Induction Ceremony will be held every hundred years, that should be fine.”
Mount Shu, which Lu Changsheng had established in the Immortal Realm, only qualified those in the Earth Immortal Realm as elders, whereas those from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Unity Realm were all disciples, so there was no need to hold an Induction Ceremony every ten years like the Mount Shu in the Mortal World.
“The Xuan Sha Sect has been destroyed? This place is now under Mount Shu’s control?”
“Mount Shu is an Orthodox Sect? They want to recruit disciples?”
“Who exactly is this Sect Leader of Mount Shu?”
“Mount Shu has just been established. If we join Mount Shu, won’t we be the first-generation disciples? The seniority of the first generation is incredibly high.”
When the Loose Cultivators controlling several dozen cities heard that a sudden visitor had annihilated the Xuan Sha Sect and that the visitor had taken over the sect’s main gate to establish Mount Shu, there was an immediate stir.
Just founded, by joining Mount Shu at this moment, one would become a first-generation disciple!
Even if the first-generation disciples were not strong, they would be able to rely on their seniority to hold a considerable status within Mount Shu in the future.
The first-generation disciples would also have access to more resources.
The first disciple induction ceremony of Mount Shu attracted twenty thousand participants.

Twenty thousand candidates appeared at Tianxuan Mountain.
Tianxuan Mountain was teeming with people.
Lu Changsheng sat in the main seat, surveying the crowd in the plaza.
The realms of these Loose Cultivators ranged from Foundation Establishment to Unity Realm.
Surprisingly, there were several individuals in the Unity Realm.
However, no Earth Immortal-level Loose Cultivators were discovered.
Even if Earth Immortal-level Loose Cultivators joined the Divine Lightning Sect, they could at least mix in as an Elder. By joining Mount Shu, they would also be Elders, but with strict rules at Mount Shu, there was little appeal to them.
Lu Changsheng unleashed the Gallbladder Mirror, a magical treasure.
This treasure was not the sect-defending treasure of Mount Shu in the Mortal World but an identical one returned by the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator.
Although the Gallbladder Mirror was just an inferior Immortal Artifact, it could reveal the qualities of all people, worthy of the reputation of a sect-defending treasure.
Groups of disciple candidates came to the front of the Gallbladder Mirror to reveal their talents.
“Yu Tao, fifth layer of the Nascent Soul Realm, Root Bone – upper grade, Comprehension – lower grade, Qi Destiny – lower grade, no special physique. Assigned as an Outer Sect Disciple.”
The candidate known as Yu Tao was not content, “I’m a Nascent Soul Realm expert, how come I’m only an Outer Sect Disciple?”
“If you have an objection, immediately roll out of our Mount Shu.”
“I’m an Earth Immortal, yet I’m just an ordinary Elder.”
Elder Luo was hot-tempered and still retained the domineering attitude he had in the Xuan Sha Sect.
The crowd fell silent.
Even an Earth Immortal-level master was only an ordinary Elder in Mount Shu, so a Nascent Soul Realm being an Outer Sect Disciple made sense.
In Mount Shu, only Earth Immortal Realm could be ordinary Elders!
Void Refinement Realm and Unity Realm were Inner Sect Disciples!
Anything below the Void Refinement Realm were all Outer Sect Disciples!
Of course, if there were geniuses with exceptional talent, picked by Lu Changsheng as disciples, their status could be elevated to Direct Disciples.
If taken as disciples by Supreme Elders or Elders, their status could be elevated to Inner Sect Disciples.
“How can Mount Shu, a minor sect, compare itself with the likes of Divine Lightning Sect and Lingtian Sect, those Super Immortal Sects?”
“Mount Shu can’t offer the resources of an Immortal Sect and yet has the audacity to set its sights on Divine Lightning Sect and Lingtian Sect as its goals. The Sect Leader of Mount Shu really is full of youthful vigour.”
“You guys just don’t get it, do you? Mount Shu’s Sect Leader may be a peerless master, hiding his real cultivation level. How else would he dare compare with the Super Immortal Sects? By joining Mount Shu now and becoming a first-generation disciple, we will become the founding elders of the Immortal Sect in the future.”
“Fellow Daoist, your words make sense indeed.”
Lu Changsheng deliberately left many vacancies for Elders and Supreme Elders, which piqued everyone’s curiosity and led them to believe Lu Changsheng was inscrutable.
These people, in turn, were even more eager to join Mount Shu.
“No good, there aren’t any suitable disciples.”
The Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator showed no reaction; among twenty thousand candidates, not one was suitable as a Direct Disciple.
Xiao Fan with the War Heaven Tyrant Body and Ning Qianqian with the Dragon Emperor Bloodline were one in a billion prodigies, very few of which could be found in Cangyu.
“Gao Qi, third layer of the Unity Realm, Root Bone – upper grade, Comprehension – upper grade, Qi Destiny – top upper grade, physique is ‘Heavy Water Physique.’ Assigned as an Inner Sect Disciple.”
“Zhao Dong, fourth layer of the Void Refinement Realm, Root Bone – upper grade, Comprehension – upper grade, Qi Destiny – middle grade, physique is ‘Thick Earth Skills.’ Assigned as an Inner Sect Disciple.”
“Ren Yuxing, ninth layer of the Golden Core Realm, Root Bone – top upper grade, Comprehension – middle grade, Qi Destiny – upper grade, no special physique. Assigned as an Outer Sect Disciple.”
…
Mount Shu took in more than four thousand disciples in one go, along with the several hundred disciples from the original Xuan Sha Sect, now totaling five thousand disciples.
Mount Shu inherited the territory of the Xuan Sha Sect, and needed manpower to manage it.
“There are eight hundred peaks on Tianxuan Mountain, each Inner Sect Disciple can have one peak.”
Seeing there was only Luo Cheng as an Elder in the sect, Lu Changsheng decided to allocate part of the peaks of Tianxuan Mountain to the Inner Sect Disciples.
The Mount Shu in the Immortal Realm had just been established and still needed time to accumulate heritage.
Lu Changsheng had obtained a variety of cultivation techniques from being a mentor and combined them with the techniques collected by Xuan Sha Sect, providing enough for these Inner Sect and Outer Sect disciples to cultivate.
