The number of children participating in the trial is the largest, because children are not only prone to passing the final assessment of the punishment palace, but also because of their age advantage, they are often higher than the upper limit of Taoism for adults.

There are also many adult men, many of them are casual cultivators with a little cultivation level. Bai Heguan will not refuse. As long as he passes the various assessment standards set, he will be included in the door.

There are also many women who come to seek justice, because women are more delicate than men and generally calm in character, and they are prone to gain advantages in some assessments that require caution and meticulousness and calmness.

Whether men, women, young and old, Baihe Temple will conduct tests according to the standards. As long as you pass all tests and the examination of the punishment palace, you can join Baihe Temple. Baihe Temple will not limit the qualifications of those who seek the Tao. However, after all, the number of disciples each time is limited, and they are often selected from one in a million, so most of them are lost and return.

Not only Baihe Temple, but all sects are like this, but there are still endless people who go to famous mountains and rivers to seek Taoism. Because entering the Tao path, people belong to two classes from the previous poor people, belong to different levels of the world, and sometimes they can even be regarded as two different species, with different life philosophy and abilities and horizons.

Just like Chen Zhong, a person who was barely admitted to the family (when he first opened the mountain and accepted disciples, he had very low requirements for his talent for cultivation), even if he later left the sect, he still had no worries about food and clothing. Those who entered the Tao basically would not worry about food and clothing, while the poor people would almost have their lives to make a living.

Wu Sheng secretly observed these days, and saw that only a few people came to seek the Tao could pass the fifth palace test, and most of them returned in disappointment.

Destiny is everywhere, and many things are destined to be born, and most people are destined to be without fate with Tao after they are born, because they do not have the talent to practice Taoism at all.

It is not accurate to say that practicing Taoism is to protect the Tao. The ancient sects believed that everyone could practice Taoism and enlighten the Tao, but not everyone was qualified to protect the Tao.

Practice and cultivation are actually about cultivating the way of Tao. Whether you fight with others or fight with heaven, you need personal cultivation to protect Tao!

Unlike the sadness of separation from life and death, from the eyes of those who fail to seek the truth, what Wu Sheng saw was the destruction of all kinds of fantasies about the future, which was similar to the helpless surrender after entering society in modern life.

Everyone wants to be the protagonist, but most people can only live as backgrounds, whether ancient or modern, whether illusory or real!

A few days later, the opening of the mountain and taking disciples was officially announced as the Zhenwen Palace confirmed the last quota.

Almost every time, the Zhenwen Palace barely selected all its disciples in the end. Sometimes, even until the end of the seven days and seven nights, the Zhenwen Palace cannot receive enough passers-by. This is not because they have a large number of places. On the contrary, among the five palaces, the Zhenwen Palace has the smallest number of places.

The real reason is that the tests made by Zhenwen Palace are the most difficult, and they have the lowest requirements for cultivation talent, but there are many other requirements and are also very high.

Zhenwen Palace requires strong learning and memory skills, and also tests the various subtle personalities of those who seek Taoism. Those who are too strong will not accept those who are too weak; those who like to be aggressive will not accept those who are too pedantic and conservative will not accept those who are too pedantic and conservative will not accept those who are too scheming and conservative will not accept those who are too persistent will not accept them...

If the official children of the other four palaces are brought to Zhenwen Palace for testing, they will basically be turned away.

(See the chapter "Related to Works" for the reason for listing.)

Because their test requirements are too high and the procedures are the most cumbersome, all those who pass the Zhenwen Palace will rarely be eliminated by the punishment palace. Unlike other palaces, those who have huge defects in the Zhenwen Palace have basically been eliminated by the Zhenwen Palace.

After Baiheguan opened the mountain and accepted disciples, the entire Baihe Mountain suddenly became much quieter.

In previous years, Chen Yuan personally gave a lecture on the Taoist seekers who passed the preliminary tests of each palace and pavilion. While learning and instilling the concept of cultivation of Baihe Temple and reshaping their concepts of cultivation, they sent people to various places to investigate their past events to judge the character concepts of those seeking the Taoist seekers and decide to stay or leave in the end.

Those who are eliminated by the punishment palace mostly have major defects in character, or their behavioral concepts have been fixed by the world of aristocratic families and basically cannot be changed.

This year, he skipped this step because naturally, Chen Yuan was not in the sightseeing world, and he was visiting Qi Mansion in Yannan City.

Although Qi Wencheng has been the city lord for a short time, he has been in the officialdom for many years and is not a young boy who has just entered the officialdom.

In Yannan City, he controlled the general trend in a short time. Those who opposed him could no longer compete with him in Yannan City, so he recruited evil practitioners and used those sinister means.

After Chen Yuan met with Qi Wencheng, the two sides soon reached an agreement and decided to act together under the guidance of Wu Sheng, Bai Wuchang, to encircle and suppress the family and himself, who sheltered the evil practitioner Lu Ziyu.

Qi Wencheng himself was very interested in Wu Sheng, Bai Wuchang, and wanted Chen Yuan to recommend him, but Chen Yuan did not agree. Because Black and White Impermanence has a high status in the Three Realms, whether to agree to get to know Qi Wencheng or not is up to him, Chen Yuan dared not do it for him.

Qi Wencheng did not force himself, but felt that this was normal. If someone wanted to recommend an ordinary person to him, he would probably not be interested. Although Qi Wencheng was already the lord of a city, there were countless cities like him in the three realms, and it was even more difficult to count. However, black and white impermanence were very few, and the two were not on the same level at all.

It is not easy to formulate a plan to disintegrate a family in a short period of time. It is definitely not a small family to deal with Qi Wencheng, the city lord and take practical actions. Once the two sides start a war, Qi Wencheng must also pay attention to the public security and order in the city to avoid causing large-scale chaos.

To maintain order, he can mobilize some forces from other parties in the city, and those who besiege the offenders and instigate the family to rebel need to use force that Qi Wencheng himself can control.

Su Xin, a domestic military officer, is in charge of military affairs, and a civil servant is in charge of civil servants, but in order to maintain the balance between civil servants, civil servants have their own guards.

Guardians are some practitioners who have been promoted and demoted with civil servants. The composition is complex. They may be casual cultivators recruited by civil servants themselves, children within their own family, or practitioners who are fixed in such positions.

The scope of power and responsibility of the guardian is entirely determined by the position of the civil servant in charge, and the number is also determined by the rank of the civil servants. They are only responsible to the civil servants themselves. This force is not enough to fight against the imperial army, but it is enough to protect the safety of civil servants, cope with general situations, and can implement the will of civil servants.

Qi Wencheng's command did not have many escorts, but his cultivation was not low. Moreover, civil servants were all those who made a living by relying on combat ability, so if you look at knowledge and knowledge, you would definitely not be as good as those of the Chinese monks in Baihe Temple, but their combat ability and combat methods were definitely not weak.
