The Great Wild God - Chapter 66
Chapter 66 Disciple Monastery
After entering Azure Water City, Zuoqiu, Zongya, and the others needed to find a place to stay. On the other hand, Chen Xun, Zong Ling, Nan Xi, Gu Jianxi, Zuo Qianlan, and the other tribal clansmen who possessed the Iron Trial Token immediately followed Ge Yi and the others into the Su Wu Wei Manor’s disciple courtyard in the city.
Although it was said to be a monastery, it was incomparably vast, occupying no less land in Canglan North City than the Black Python Stone Village.
On the other side of the courtyard, there were mainly two middle-aged deacons in charge. They looked like they were also at the peak of the ninth level of the True Yang Realm. Their words were very few. They handed over to Ge Yi and the others to verify that the trial iron plate Chen Xun and the others had brought was correct.
After registering, Chen Xun and the others followed the two deacons into the courtyard.
There were faint clouds gathering above the courtyard, as if they were tied by invisible ropes. They stopped in the air above the courtyard and changed shape with the wind, but they did not scatter.
Chen Xun felt that there was a faint profound aura gathering in the clouds. It was as if an invisible water current was flowing above his head. It was unknown whether it was caused by the terrain of the other courtyard or by the special seal restrictions around it.
It was also because the clouds that could gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had always stopped above the courtyard. Although the snow on the ridge of the sky had not melted yet, the courtyard was already filled with the fragrance of birds singing and flowers. The green willow and zhitong trees by the rockery in Qutang were shady.
In the northern mountain of Python Fang Ridge, Fish Yang Grass, Earth Sunflower, and other spirit herbs that were regarded as spirit herbs grew everywhere in the courtyard. They looked like they had been here for quite some years, but no one picked them. Chen Xun looked at them and wished he could pick them all and refine two bottles of Essence Gathering Paste first.
All the courtyards were connected to each other by the Qutang Stone Pool. The big fish were playing in the clear flowing water while swimming. They were also filled with a sense of spirituality.
Chen Xun and the others stayed in the monastery, so they were temporarily restricted from leaving. However, from the monastery, they could see the background of the Su Clan and the Azure Water College. The Beishan Tribe really wanted to learn, and they might not be able to catch up for a thousand years.
Chen Xun and the others were like Granny Liu who walked into the Grand View Garden.
Don’t look at Gu Jianfeng. South Stream was a young clan leader in the stronghold. At this time, he had become a leopard that had never seen the world before. He shrunk his head and even felt restrained no matter how he waved his hands and feet.
Apart from the twenty tribal clansmen who had obtained the Su Wu Wei Manor’s Iron-smelting Trial Token, before Chen Xun and the others, there were also the Su Clan and other small and medium-sized clans who had already lived in this courtyard. There were even close to sixty disciples who had passed the trials from commoner families.
In order to avoid confusion, the selection of the disciples of the Ninth Commandant’s Manor was conducted in two batches.
Chen Xun and the others were the first batch. They had to stay in the monastery for fifteen days before they could enter the Academy together and begin their cultivation in Azure Water City.
The courtyard that belonged to the Commandant Su Wu’s Manor was also exceptionally vast. Even if more than eighty disciples stayed in this courtyard, it was more than enough for one person to live in a separate courtyard.
There were people taking care of their daily life here, and Ge Yi and the others were only responsible for sending Chen Xun to the other courtyard. After the handover, they turned around and left without a trace.
**********************
Chen Xun also held the attitude of being safe and sound as he stayed with Gu Jianfeng and the others in the courtyard first.
The refined house Chen Xun was staying in was located at the northeast corner of the courtyard. It was a half-acre courtyard with a full-sized main house and wing rooms. The courtyard looked small, but it was extremely quiet and elegant.
There were two stalks of cheetah trees planted in the courtyard, only as tall as the eaves.
To cultivators, Zhi Tong had the effect of calming the mind of the gods. At this moment, she was spitting out a fragrant fragrance that filled the entire courtyard, causing people to feel indescribably relaxed and happy.
Spiritual herbs grew in the corners, and spiritual energy grew in the dark. The stone grooves under the walls of the shallow pond flowed in, and the sound of water rang out.
The bed, books, utensils, and all kinds of daily necessities in the refined relic were all exquisite and exquisite; There are several sets of slippery cotton, brocade fabric clothing, can be replaced; Every meal offered a medicinal diet that contained a good amount of spiritual energy.
Apart from that, Chen Xun also had a maidservant, Cai’er, in his courtyard to serve him.
Not to mention entering the Azure Water Learning Academy to cultivate high-grade profound arts, he could finally bring back the clan’s inheritance. It was just a simple comparison of his daily life. There was also a huge difference between this place and the Black Python.
Living in another courtyard was simply a step from hell to heaven. One couldn’t help but feel that the bloody trials along the way were finally worth it, and the Su Clan wasn’t that hateful.
Cai ‘Er was only fourteen or fifteen years old. Her childish face was beautiful and delicate. Her body had just developed, and she was slender and well-balanced. She spoke softly and breathlessly. She was timid by nature, and her dark and agile eyes were always hiding from others.
Chen Xiaoxiao didn’t dare to say anything more when she spoke.
It took Chen Xun several days to get a clear understanding of the matters of the Azure Water College from her.
**********************
When the Su Imperial Clan left Cloud Continent, it was still a small clan with only a few hundred people. After that, it had taken root in Azure Water for two to three hundred years, and it had been four hundred years since they fought with the Black Python for the Azure Water Hegemon.
However, it has been a thousand years since the Su Clan moved to Canglan.
During this thousand years, the Su Clan had reproduced and lived in Canglan City. There were more than a hundred thousand Su Clan disciples living in Canglan City alone. However, apart from the most noble Sixth Commandant’s Mansion, the other Su Clan disciples were all branches of the side veins. They no longer had any special status in Canglan City.
Although the three commandments and six commandants’ mansion was presided over by the Su Clan’s disciples, not all of them relied solely on bloodline inheritance.
This was a world where the strong were respected.
Su Junyuan, the current head of the Su Martial Commandant’s Manor, had been cultivating in seclusion for more than ten years. The internal and external affairs of the Su Martial Commandant’s Manor were mainly handled by Su Qingfeng and Su Quan’s two sons.
If Su Junyuan, Su Qingfeng, and Su Quan were to fail to advance to the Heavenly Yuan Realm in the next 30 to 50 years, die due to their lifespan or other reasons, and their descendants did not have enough powerful experts to rise up, their clan would have to hand over the authority of Commandant Su Wu’s Manor and replace it with other rising Su Clan branches.
Even the Su Clan’s most core, the Su Clan’s Sect Leader, had always been in charge of the Su Clan’s Sect Token Manor, where experts from the Su Clan lived.
This was the reason why the Su Clan was able to ensure that there were enough Reincarnation Realm experts in their clan, that one or two peerless Heaven Origin Realm experts would appear within a hundred years, and that they would be able to consolidate their dominance in Azure Water and not be seized by other clans.
The Canglan College, which was in charge of the inheritance of profound arts, was the foundation of the Su Clan in the Canglan Clan. Its status was extremely respected, and it had absolute authority in the Canglan Clan. In fact, it was divided into nine branches by the Three Order Six Commandant Manor.
After Chen Xun entered the Azure Water College, his name book was still listed in the Su Wu Commandant’s Mansion, and he was counted as a disciple of the Su Wu Commandant’s Mansion.
Apart from some public resources, the disciples’ profound arts cultivation, daily life, and various trials were mainly the responsibility of the Three Command and Six Commandant Palaces.
Only the most elite disciples would have the chance to enter the inner court with the direct descendants of the Sixth Commandant’s Manor and directly cultivate the Su Clan’s core profound arts.
Therefore, although there were four to five thousand disciples in the Azure Water College, the vast majority of them were outer court disciples, and the true elites were all inner court disciples.
Azure Water College recruited disciples once every three years. Apart from this, there were also three other courtyards where the disciples resided in the Su Wu Commandant’s Mansion.
If Chen Xun entered the Academy for nine years and failed to meet the standards for entering the Academy, he would have to become a guest minister and serve the Su Wu Commandant’s Manor for ten years.
This was also the basic condition that the disciples of the tribes, the Su Clan, and other large and small clans had promised to enter the Azure Water School through the trial.
After ten years of service for the Su Wu Lieutenant’s Manor, Chen Xun could choose to leave the Su Wu Lieutenant’s Manor and return to the tribe with a successful profound art. He could also continue to stay in the Su Wu Lieutenant’s Manor and receive a long-term job to support his family. You can also stay in the Azure Water and establish your own clan.
The Su Clan was of course the Azure Water King of this land. In addition to the Su Clan and the Wilderness tribes that were born and raised in this wilderness, there were countless small and medium-sized clans and sects. They were all closely related to the Su Clan and the Azure Water College.
Although Grandpa Zongtu said that there were more than a hundred experts above the Su Clan’s Reincarnation Realm, in reality, the true strength of the Azure Water College and the Three Commandments and Six Commandants Manor was unimaginably strong.
As one of the three commandments and six commandants, the Su Wu Commandant’s Manor, as one of the nine direct descendants of the Su Clan, had fallen somewhat in recent years and was ranked at the bottom.
Even so, apart from Su Junyuan, who was already at the peak of the late stage of the Reincarnation Realm and only half a step away from the Heavenly Yuan Realm, Su Qingfeng, Su Quan, and the others were also experts who had advanced to the peak of the mid stage of the Reincarnation Realm.
The Su Wu Commandant’s Mansion had nearly 300 disciples, 400 guests, and nearly 100 deacons in charge of internal and external affairs.
Apart from the disciples’ cultivation inheritance, the internal and external affairs of Azure Water City were also mainly handled by the Sixth Commandant’s Manor.
Including the Su Wu Lieutenant Manor, the Sixth Lieutenant Manor was responsible for guarding and protecting the trade routes of the Su Clan in the six directions. The Three Commanders Manor, including the Sect Master’s Manor, was mainly responsible for the internal affairs of Azure Water City.
The Su Wei Commandant’s Mansion was mainly responsible for the direction of the Azure Northern Wilderness and Python Fang Ridge, which meant that the nearly 300 barbarian tribes in these areas, including the Gui Xi and other powerful races, were considered the outer forces of the Su Wu Commandant’s Mansion.
Once they clashed with the Xuanhan Sect and other external forces, the Guixi Clan would also have to contribute.
Chen Xun was secretly shocked. The Su Clan ruled over a vast area that stretched for thousands of kilometers and controlled the only entrance to and exit from the Western Wilderness of Cloud Continent. There were only three to five peerless experts at the Heaven Origin Realm. It was not enough. In the end, they relied on this exceptionally strict and complex system.
