The results were quickly announced.
Of the top five seats, Lin Yun’s team had bagged four, a very powerful result.
Although no one was optimistic about Lin Yun before the competition started, Lin Yun was undoubtedly the biggest dark horse in this selection competition!
Lin Yun didn’t get to first place because after Lin Yun took one half-step Transformation Spirit Demon Beast Dan, the rest of the loot was basically divided amongst his three teammates.
To be ranked second with just one half-step God Transformation Demon Beast Dan, and a handful of instant other Demon Beast Dans, it was clear how high the rating of this Demon Beast Dan was.
After all, being able to kill a half-step Transformation God demonic beast was an absolute symbol of strength.
Lin Yun also didn’t want to compete with Meng Yangtian for first place, there was no need for that.
Meng Yangtian had let Lin Yun have the Half-step Goddess Demonic Beast Pill, so Lin Yun had to show some gentlemanly manners as well.
From 6th to 15th place, 6 of them were Temple disciples, as well as an overseas cultivator, and three disciples from ancient sects.
After all, the loot of all the Temple teams had been raided by Lin Yun for half of their loot before the finish line, and their loot, at once, was much less.
After the results were announced, the entire square was thrown into a frenzy.
“Hahaha, in previous tryouts, the top 15 were basically wrapped up by the outer sects of the sanctuary, this time the rankings of the tryouts, it’s really interesting, the entire outer sects of the sanctuary, together with Meng Yangtian, there were only 7 people who made it into the top 15, that’s enough to set a record!”
“It’s all because of that dark horse Lin Yun… he alone messed up the entire tournament!”
“Haha, because he messed up the competition, my Easy Sect also had one person who entered the top fifteen, if it wasn’t for him Lin Yun, my disciple definitely wouldn’t have been able to enter the top fifteen, my Easy Sect has to be thankful to Lin Yun ah!”
……
To be able to have three disciples from ancient sects, enter the top fifteen, it was all Lin Yun’s doing.
The second elder at the front waved his hand, signalling everyone to be quiet, then he continued:
“Those who rank in the top fifteen will all be qualified to enter the inner sect of the Holy Temple, those in the top thirty will all be rewarded with spirit stones, and Zhang Jian will be granted a licensed spot to enter the inner sect.”
Every session, one person would be selected from those who did not enter the top fifteen to obtain the qualification to directly enter the inner gate.
Just now, the elders had already deliberated and finally settled on Zhang Jian.
With his strength, he was qualified for this spot, and at his age, he didn’t have the chance to participate in the next selection contest.
“White Shark and Lin Yun went in! They’ve really entered the inner gate of the sanctuary!”Dao Master was thrilled.
Lin Yun and White Shark had gained the qualification to enter the inner gate of the holy temple, how could the dao master not be excited?
Before he had come, the Taoist Master had thought that Lin Yun and White Shark didn’t have much of a chance, after all, those disciples from the outer gate of the Sacred Hall were all very powerful.
Zhang Jian was also relieved to hear that he had been given a chartered place.
Immediately after that, the Sanctuary gave out spirit stone rewards to the 16-30th place finishers, and then arranged for boats for them to leave.
The top 15 and Jian Zhang, were called to gather in front of the judges’ table.
The Grand Elder slowly stood up, “Congratulations to all of you, who have passed the selection and entered the inner gate of my Sacred Temple, we will arrange for boats to transport you to the inner gate of the Sacred Temple later.”
“The inner gate of the Holy Temple, has the highest quality cultivation resources in this world, there, you will further receive further education, and in the future, you will become the most outstanding cultivators in this world!”
It was the vast majority of the sixteen people’s faces that were filled with excitement after they heard the words.
Especially those three ancient sect disciples were the most excited, it was definitely a blessing of eight lifetimes for them to be able to enter the inner sect of the Holy Temple.
The Grand Elder’s words turned, “However, you can’t be too happy too soon, the disciples of the inner sect of the Holy Temple are all geniuses among geniuses, and there, you will face the most brutal competition, challenges, in this world!”
At this time, Lin Yun raised his hand.
“Lin Yun, do you have anything to say?”The Grand Elder of the Sanctuary looked at Lin Yun.
“Grand Elder, I’d like to make a request, after I join the inner sect of the Sacred Temple, can I not have my personal freedom restricted.”Lin Yun said.
The second elder immediately clapped his hands, “Ridiculous, the inner sect of the holy temple, there are strict rules, disciples are not allowed to enter and leave the inner sect at will!”
“Lin Yun, the rules of the inner gate do have some restrictions on freedom, a rule that can’t be changed easily.”The Grand Elder said.
“Can’t there be exceptions?”Lin Yun opened his mouth to enquire.
“Lin Yun, please find your own position, who do you think you are? You haven’t even entered the inner sect yet and you want special treatment? Certain disciples, just relying on the fact that they have a few strengths, are arrogant and complacent.”The Second Elder reprimanded with a stern face.
The second elder was related to Zhang Jian, and since Lin Yun almost made it impossible for Zhang Jian to enter the inner sect, the second elder was naturally biased against Lin Yun.
“I’m just asking, since I can’t, it doesn’t matter, then I won’t join the inner sect of the sanctuary.”Lin Yun spoke.
Lin Yun knew that there were many benefits to joining the Sacred Temple, such as obtaining spirit stones, as well as some cultivation resources, and some guidance.
As for techniques, secret books and whatnot, Lin Yun wasn’t lacking.
Lin Yun knew that most cultivators had to ‘leave their emotions and abandon their desires’ in order to cultivate without distractions in their minds and pursue a higher realm.
The Sanctuary’s inner gate restriction on certain own was also for the disciples to be more focused on their cultivation and not be affected by distractions.
But Lin Yun absolutely couldn’t let go of the metropolis, there were still many of his own attachments there!
Lin Yun would never, ever leave his feelings and abandon his desires!
“He’s actually going to give up the chance to join the inner sect?”
The moment Lin Yun’s words came out, the people present were in an uproar.
One had to know that joining the inner sect of the sanctuary was something that countless cultivators longed for.
He was actually going to give up this, an opportunity that countless people could only hope for?
“Certain people still want to use, not joining the inner sect as a threat? You think that the Sanctuary Inner Sect can’t turn without you? Ridiculous!”Zhang Jian, who was standing in the ranks, mocked in a conspiratorial manner.
“Zhang Jian, the way you taunt others is crazy, but the way you run away is wretched.”Lin Yun sneered.
“You ……” Zhang Jian’s face suddenly changed.
“What’s all the noise about, Lin Yun, you don’t want to rely on the fact that you have a few skills to make the Holy Temple make a special exception for you, join if you like, join if you don’t, our hallowed Holy Temple will never be short of one of you!”The Second Elder said in a cold voice.
“Second Elder, shut up.”The Grand Elder waved his hand.
Immediately after, the Grand Elder walked over to Lin Yun.
“Lin Yun, you’re very good, I very much hope that you can join the Holy Temple, joining the Holy Temple has many benefits that you wouldn’t think of, if you cultivate alone outside, it’s too hard to make a name for yourself, I hope you’ll reconsider.”The Grand Elder opened his mouth to persuade.
“Lin Yun, reconsider.”Red Aya, who was beside him, also opened her mouth to persuade.
“Yes Elder Lin Yun, you reconsider.”Pan Qing also persuaded.
White Shark didn’t persuade, he knew that Lin Yun had attachments, he understood Lin Yun.
“Thank you Great Elder for your love, I can’t give up my freedom.”Lin Yun replied without hesitation.
