But now that Master Qingyang was gone, the selection had been handed over to Elder Fang Rushan. However, Fang Rushan was completely absorbed in the Martial Dao and paid no mind to such a trivial matter.
So, he entrusted it to his disciple, Peng Fei.
Peng Fei, naturally, had no interest in the selection either. The disciples chosen this time were not yet true disciples of the Taishan Sect. They would need to undergo a testing period of several years, and only those who met the criteria would be recruited as Outer Disciples.
As for those who were unsuitable, they would be sent back down the mountain, though they would be granted the title of a probationary disciple of the Taishan Sect.
This was, in a way, a method of expanding the Taishan Sect's prestige.
For a Sect to survive, it needed people, and even more so, it needed territory. Only with people and territory could it endure and pass down its legacy for a long time.
