Chapter 309: Chapter 309 Second-generation Disciples, Spirit Snake Flying Boat
Ding Qing and Ding Cheng also watched from the sidelines.
They were secretly astounded to find that out of more than seven thousand people, only thirty-five met the recruitment criteria of the Misty Sect.
“Truly worthy of the Misty Sect, this equates to only one person in every two hundred having a destiny with the Misty Sect,” Ding Qing’s mood improved considerably.
Out of more than two hundred people, only selecting one, his luck could not be considered bad, only not good enough.
“This disciple recruitment ceremony concludes here.”
Ye Feng closed the Book of Names with satisfaction, put away the brush, clapped his hands, and turned to look at Xu Dalei and the thirty-five new disciples.
“Ding, a new group of Registered Disciples has been detected by the Sect Leader, and they can be designated as Second-generation Disciples.”
The System notification suddenly sounded.
“Second-generation Disciples?” Ye Feng was puzzled.
“Sect members can be divided into First Generation Disciples, Second-generation Disciples, Third Generation Disciples… up to Ninth Generation Disciples, based on the order of their initiation into the sect. The earlier the generation, the earlier the initiation,” the System explained.
“But what’s the benefit of such a division?” Ye Feng asked curiously.
“Classifying by batch of initiation makes numbering and management more convenient,” the System explained.
Hearing this, Ye Feng fell into contemplation.
If disciples were not divided into generations, then their numbering would simply continue in sequence based on the number of disciples.
If the Misty Sect were to have hundreds of thousands, or even millions of disciples, then the numbers for later disciples would stretch to seven or eight digits.
Indeed, that would be inconvenient for numbering.
Moreover, each generation of disciples is essentially a group expanded at roughly the same time, and their cultivation progress is similar, making them akin to students of the same grade.
“However, if we start dividing into generations now, wouldn’t that mean the First Generation consists only of the sixteen disciples from Shi Lei and Huo Yunjie to Yu Su and Yu Wei? That number seems too small,” Ye Feng muttered to himself.
“Ding, the number of disciples in each generation can be defined and expanded by the Sect Leader,” the System chimed in with a prompt.
Upon hearing this, Ye Feng thought it over and decided to start trying out a generational division method from now on.
The current First Generation Disciples would thus be the sixteen individuals.
As for these thirty-five, they could temporarily be set as the Second-generation, with new disciples to be assigned to the Second or Third Generation, depending on actual circumstances.
With this in mind, Ye Feng said to Xu Dalei and the newly initiated Registered Disciples, “From today on, you thirty-five are the Second-generation Disciples of our Misty Sect.”
“Second-generation?” Xu Dalei and the others looked at each other in confusion.
“That’s right, those brothers and sisters who are still on Misty Peak are the First Generation Disciples,” Ye Feng explained.
“To have already reached the Second-generation, that means there must be a lot of First Generation brothers and sisters, probably in the thousands,” one disciple mumbled.
“I think there must be at least ten thousand First Generation brothers and sisters,” another Registered Disciple refuted.
“Cough cough!”
Ye Feng’s face took on a strange expression.
He really wanted to say that there were only sixteen First Generation Disciples.
“In our Misty Sect, the division of disciples into generations is not based on number, but on the batches of initiation,” Ye Feng clarified.
After some thought, an idea struck him.
In the future, there could be one generation of disciples every year.
The sixteen First Generation Disciples on Misty Peak had all been taken in before the New Year, so according to the timing, they perfectly constituted the First Generation. There were no issues with that.
And now, as it was the second year.
Therefore, it was the Second-generation.
Thinking this, Ye Feng felt that everything fell into place logically.
“Alright, hurry back to your respective homes and prepare. Gather outside the North City Gate, we will be returning to the Misty Sect by nightfall,” Ye Feng waved his hand.
“Yes.”
Xu Dalei and the other Second-generation Disciples bowed and retreated.
Ding Cheng, accompanied by Ding Qing, came over with beaming smiles, saying, “Congratulations to Sect Master Ye on accepting another group of talented disciples, we’ll see you again next year.”
“Yes, see you next year,” Ye Feng nodded.
He stood outside the North City Gate of Beiliang City with Hu Feifei and took out a Refining Furnace and some Spiritual Artifacts to forge thirty-five brand new Sect Disciple Identity Tokens on the spot, all of the finest Lower Grade quality.
[Upgrade Energy: 73.1％]
This was the current accumulated Upgrade Energy of the Refining Furnace. Unlike Hu Feifei, the Refining Furnace’s upgrade required earnestly increasing the energy through artifact crafting.
Therefore, it had only managed to accumulate nearly three-quarters of the required energy until now.
“After crafting some more Spiritual Artifacts, the Refining Furnace will be able to reach Supreme Grade.”
Ye Feng stowed away the refining furnace.
Glancing at the remains of the Mad Python King and Poison Scorpion King lying in the distance, he extended his hand and used the power of Heroic Spirit to draw them closer.
“Eh, my Heroic Spirit Power has actually grown again!”
Ye Feng was very surprised.
Following the battle at Beiliang City, he had unconsciously absorbed a vast amount of Heroic Spirit Power from the world around him, reaching the eighth level of the Element Gathering Realm.
As for the Evil Qi, it had also surged several times over.
“Indeed, experiencing major battles in crowded places allows me to absorb more Heroic Spirit Power and greatly boost my strength.”
Ye Feng discovered a bug within himself.
Crack!
After communicating with the refining furnace, Ye Feng used the Five Elements Spirit Sword to remove all the scales from the body of the Mad Python King, took out eighty middle-grade Spirit Stones, and the black Demon Core of the Poison Scorpion King that still had power, and tossed them all into the enlarged refining furnace.
Ding ling dang la!
The refining furnace began forging a Spiritual Artifact.
The waiting process was boring.
So Ye Feng sat cross-legged on the stone slab, propping his chin with his hand, watching the sunset in the west, and noticed that near the desert, even the setting sun seemed different.
One hour later.
The refining furnace “clang” opened its lid.
A Spirit Boat, composed of countless snake scales, hovered in mid-air, its surface infused with many ancient array patterns, shining brightly, abundant with Spiritual Energy.
[Spirit Snake Flying Boat: Upper Grade Spiritual Artifact]
[Functions: Extreme Speed, Defense, Charge, Poison Fog]
[Note: Forged with scales of the Demon King Mad Python King and the Demon Core of the Poison Scorpion King. Indestructible and extremely swift. In extreme speed mode, it can travel a hundred thousand miles a day (requires Upper-grade Spirit Stones), in normal state, it can travel fifty thousand miles a day]
“Flying-type Spiritual Artifacts are indeed easier to refine.”
After reading the introduction, Ye Feng let out a sigh of relief.
Initially, as he did not have any Upper-grade Spirit Stones, he thought he could only forge a Middle-grade Spiritual Artifact; however, against his expectations, the Spirit Snake Flying Boat still managed to reach Upper-grade.
However, its main function was transportation.
In terms of Defense, Charge, and Poison Fog, its performance was far from comparable to its speed.
[Upgrade Energy: 83.1%]
Ye Feng stowed away the refining furnace, noticing that the energy had increased by another ten percent.
“Sect Master, we have arrived.”
At this moment, Xu Dalei arrived at the North City Gate with a large group of people.
“Eh! They’re all here.”
Ye Feng turned around and found that all Second-generation Disciples had already gathered, which surprised him as he had thought they would arrive one by one.
“You’ve arrived quite promptly! Alright, prepare to set off… oh no, prepare to embark!”
Ye Feng tossed the Spirit Snake Flying Boat into the air.
Whoosh!
The Spirit Snake Flying Boat instantly expanded from the length of one foot to a hundred meters long and ten meters wide. A majestic breeze blew over it, raising wisps of light smoke.
“This is the Spirit Snake Flying Boat, an Upper-grade Flying Spiritual Artifact.”
Ye Feng explained.
“Hiss!”
“It’s actually the legendary Upper-grade Spiritual Artifact!”
“I remember that in our entire Beiliang City, only City Lord Ding has one, and he treasures it, rarely using it.”
The Second-generation Disciples showed shocked expressions.
“Come on up!”
Ye Feng, with Princess Hu Feifei, leaped to the bow of the boat.
The disciples, some without cultivation and some who had already broken through to the Qi Refining Realm, climbed onto the Spirit Snake Flying Boat one after another, men and women in separate lines, standing behind Ye Feng.
“Set off!”
Ye Feng flicked his finger.
The Spirit Snake Flying Boat was enveloped by a layer of Spiritual Energy shield, and on both sides, it dragged along the corpses of the Poison Scorpion King and Mad Python King as it flew into the Barren Desert.
