After three months the notice was posted about the sect branch's recruitment and the criteria had not changed.

Those attaining great accomplishments in any of the publicized techniques get to enter as long as they were less than seventeen years old.

The scale of this activity was almost like that in his previous life's school life.

The number of children in the town also flood the city sect branches and those his age are also a lot.

It is not a unique thing at all, and thus he was not worried about looking out of place.

Some of the parents are also cultivators though not high they are among the guard force in the city.

As for others, they have their secrets and thus spend some of their resources to improve their children's cultivation opportunities.

In such a dangerous world it is more realistic to have children take a path that could allow them to have smooth development.

As for Lin he had his plans, he had rumors that the books in the sect branches were loaded in the libraries.

He wanted to understand the world he was in before he could take any more unnecessary moves.

His development could be based on it, and the direction to choose might be brought from it.

Checking out the posters on the selections of disciples, Huang could see some interesting conditions but he had no interest in them.

"Since I plan to spend most of my time studying all the important records in the sect branch library, it is better to just take the normal way in. I won't be showing off my perfect grasp of sword technique. Just use the small accomplishment level. This might be the most important way to avoid being given much attention and being forced to take a certain routine. "

He was not a fool, anyone with enough talent would be capable of bringing great impact to the war against the dark species.

The human population is protected especially mortals since they are the source of geniuses.

The number of mortals is very high and even with their short lifespan, give birth to at least a genius in every ten thousand.

Such being the case, every region having several hundred million mortals, can be imagined.

The entire world thus has a large number of cultivators that were born from mortal parents.

The moment one enters the sect branch the treatment in the society of the family changes.

The situation further changes if one does well in the main sect selection.

The family is allowed to have access to some private property in some nice regions in the cities that show good talent.

Cultivation rankings based on numerous factors also come into being, as people's situations are put into consideration.

Huang suspects that the genius disciples that manage to meet certain criteria such as comprehending some complex state or breaking through a certain realm are deemed more desirable and thus families end up benefiting from it.

In the end, the most important facts have proven that the number of disciples that can compete for some of the positions of geniuses is limited.

The core sects are something commonly talked about but no one knows the actual criteria for selections.

But Huang could find out in the end if he had some opportunities to join the main sect.

Cultivation level seems to have a lot with the situation too.

"All this is for later, I should be more concerned with my current situation. Based on the discussions I heard from servants some younger generations seem to have even made a reputation for themselves in various fields. I however do not care, what to reveal and not to can only be based on the situation on the ground."

As Huang moved around the streets, he could hear conversations about geniuses.

" Murong Fei is a genius at 15 he has mastered their family technique to perfection. He even has also attained the great accomplishment of the sect's selection technique. "

" what do you know, Lei has already reached great accomplishment at thirteen. He is sure to also be among those gaining a chance to enter the main sect in the future."

"Hahaha... Guo Ming is said to be among the most beautiful of the ones being admitted this year."

The discussions could be heard everywhere and even before entering the sect branch, he could hear rumors.

At this time he also had some ideas about what might be going on.

At the same time, he seemed to have understood that the sect's selection might have some tough individuals.

He then moved to another direction, it is a restaurant where he usually hears rumors about this world.

He arrived as usual but the place was indeed full, unlike other days.

"I guess the situation in this place is really as expected. Some individuals have been able to come to this area to get themselves ready for the selections."

Most of the individuals did not stay in the city, as this region was very large. Some families they had made contributions to are given property outside the city.

Others stay in local villages that are some distance away from the city but within the range of protection.

He heard rumors about the existence of wilderness beyond the protected regions.

Only strong experts get to go there as it is not very friendly to mortals.

In the restaurant, he could not get space so he moved to leave only to see another family of five arriving.

The hairstyle was unique among everyone he had seen.

Most importantly the color was blue, with some crimson at the edges.

As he observed the people's hair they had already passed by him.

But his actions were not hidden from them, yet they seemed to not take it to heart.

He woke up from his daze after they had already entered the restaurant and requested accommodation services.

On the way home, he met a lot of people that seemed like non-residents of the city.

At this point, he was already clear about some things.

The criteria for entering the main sect are very strict and thus children of even those with connections can only go to sext branches before advancing by their capabilities.
