Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

“Mmm.”

Feng Jiu responded and touched the fur of the beast beside her with one hand. Ferocious beasts of Sacred Beast level didn’t dare reveal a trace of its brutal nature under the pressure of her Ancient Beast coercion. Instead, it lay obediently on the ground like a gentle pet beast.

“Bring me a chair, and tell the people outside to come inside in groups of ten.” She said to them.

“Yes.” Everyone responded. Some went to move a chair, while others stood guard on both sides, and others went outside the city gate…

When the people who were waiting outside saw someone coming, they surrounded them immediately: “Can we go in now?”

“Is the selection going to start?”

Everyone asked questions all at once and their eyes fell on Gu Xiang’s body in front of them.

Gu Xiang walked through the crown and saw a man had stood up. It was the person that his Master had wanted to accept the other day. Perhaps he had heard the news and decided to join them after all.

“The first ten people will come in with me, the others will wait here.” Gu Xiang said to the ten people in front of him then led them inside.

The ten people who went inside first couldn’t help but felt a little nervous as they didn’t know what the selection requirements were and how many of them would be left in the end.

“Master, they’re here.” Gu Xiang bowed respectfully then stepped aside and made way for the ten people to step forward.

When the ten people saw the figure in red sitting on the chair and his beautiful face, they couldn’t help but be stunned, some of them even blurted out: “You, aren’t you a woman?”

“What audacity!”

The Old Clan Leader at the side shouted in a deep voice. His gaze fell sharply on the cultivator, his Immortal Sacred coercion covered him and the cultivator’s face paled suddenly. He only felt a pressure on the top of his head that caused his legs to soften and he knelt down on the ground with a plop.

Feng Jiu smiled. She rested her chin on one hand and said: “Raise your head and look at me. Tell me, why do you want to join Phoenix City and become my subordinate?”

When he saw that his Master had spoken, the Old Clan Leader collected his coercion and allowed the man to breathe.

“Because you are very strong, and I know that there aren’t many people in Phoenix City. That’s why I want to join.” He raised his head and looked at the person sitting on the chair and spoke truthfully. However, when he looked at her face and saw that she was clearly dressed in men’s clothing, he wasn’t sure whether this person was a man or a woman.

“Everyone else tell me your reasons too! When you are talking, look at me.” She looked at the remaining nine people idly.

The other nine people didn’t know what she wanted to hear, therefore, there was a wide variety of answers. Gu Xiang was in charge of bringing in the people from outside, group after group…

Amongst the last group of people, there was a man that Feng Jiu had taken a liking to at the beginning. Therefore, she looked at him in interest and asked: “Why do you want to join Phoenix City? Why do you want to become my subordinate?”

“Because yours is the only place that is recruiting cultivators, and there are also women and children here.” The man looked at Feng Jiu and said truthfully.

Feng Jiu nodded and finally stood up. One hundred and sixty five people were split into two groups and they stood on each side of her. There were seventy five people on the left and ninety people on the right.

“The people on the left stay behind, the people on the right can go out!” Feng Jiu motioned for them to be taken out.

However, the ninety people on the right were startled, and some were unwilling to leave: “Why have we been eliminated? I obviously said the same thing as that person!”
