Chapter 1654: The Competition Begins

All the disciples in the Dizi District of Danyun Peak, as well as some disciples in the Renzi District, are eyeing the four positions.

Once you step into the gate of the Tianzi District, it is equivalent to standing at the top position of the young disciples of Danyun Peak.

There are only eight positions in the Tianzi District, and with the newly opened positions, there are only twelve.

If you are lucky enough to enter one of them, how glorious it will be?

There is almost no doubt that as long as you can enter the Tianzi District, if nothing unexpected happens and you grow up smoothly, you will definitely become a giant in the sect or a powerful figure in the outside world in the future.

The top leaders issued an announcement that anyone who is interested in participating in the competition for the four new positions can sign up.

The number of applicants is much more than expected.

More than 300 people signed up to compete for the two positions in the martial arts direction.

More than 100 people also signed up to compete for the two positions in the alchemy direction.

This means that more than half of the core disciples of the entire Danyun Peak have signed up to participate in this competition.

Su Chen was not surprised by this. After all, the four new positions in the Tianzi District are a rare opportunity in a century.

If it were the past, a position in the Tianzi District would be vacated only when a disciple in the Tianzi District died or a disciple was promoted from a disciple to an elder due to age.

In that case, it might not be possible to wait for a position until the end of time.

Now, four new positions are opened at once. If you miss this opportunity once, you may never meet it again in your life.

Hundreds of people compete for four positions. Although the chance is still small, it is much higher than usual.

Therefore, unless you feel that you have no hope at all, you will definitely sign up to give it a try.

The battle for the four Tianzi District positions has not yet begun, and the entire Danyun Peak has already fallen into a frenzy.

Many people are speculating who will get these four positions, and have listed various guesses.

However, in none of these guesses, Su Chen's name is included.

Su Chen is calm and doesn't care about the ups and downs of the outside world.

In this frenzy, the battle for the four Tianzi District positions slowly kicked off.

The head of the Danyun Peak Martial Arts Hall, Huangfu, personally presided over the selection of two positions in the Martial Arts direction, while the head of the Alchemy Hall, Mu, personally presided over the selection of two positions in the Alchemy direction.

In addition, the head of the Affairs Hall, Li, and more than a dozen elders of the Elders' Council jointly supervised the selection to prevent favoritism and fraud in the competition.

There is a trial hall on Danyun Peak, which is specially used for such occasions. At this moment, the trial hall is divided into two parts, one for the Martial Arts competition and the other for the Alchemy competition.

"The Tianzi District has always been the place where the top disciples of our Danyun Peak live. This time, we have opened up four new positions in the Tianzi District to discover more top talents."

"As one of the four major holy sects in Zhongzhou, our Danxin Holy Sect has always taken the alchemy as the foundation of the sect, using alchemy to cultivate martial arts, and the model of martial arts and alchemy going hand in hand. So this time, two of the four positions will be given to disciples in the alchemy direction."

Master Li of the Affairs Hall, as the host of the selection competition, stood in the hall and spoke to all the disciples participating in the selection.

The other elders of the Elder Hall also stood behind Master Li. Most of the elders nodded slightly, obviously having no opinion on Master Li's words.

In fact, according to the historical records of the sect, in the very beginning of the Danxin Holy Sect, the alchemy greatly overshadowed the martial arts. At that time, Danyun Peak was full of alchemy disciples, and there were very few martial arts disciples.

However, later, the elixir resources of the Danxin Holy Sect attracted more and more martial arts disciples, and the martial arts of the Danxin Holy Sect also developed rapidly, competing with the alchemy.

Especially after the previous generation of senior leaders took office, a series of measures and resource tilts were clearly biased towards martial arts, showing that they attached great importance to martial arts, but instead underestimated the Dan Dao advantage that Danxin Shengzong had always had.

When this generation of senior figures took office, they also followed the style of the previous generation at the beginning, but gradually found that the number of Dan Dao talents in the sect was decreasing sharply. Whether it was young disciples or middle-aged alchemists, there were fewer than before, and the reserve of Dan Dao talents was significantly reduced compared to the past.

If this continues, within a few generations, Danxin Shengzong's Dan Dao advantage will be gone.

This phenomenon made this generation of senior leaders begin to reflect on whether the previous strategy was wrong.

Among them, Mu Tangzhu was especially representative. Mu Tangzhu insisted that Danxin Shengzong had attached too much importance to martial arts and despised Dan Dao over the years.

It cannot be said that attaching importance to martial arts is wrong, but everything should have a degree. Danxin Shengzong has attached too much importance to the development of martial arts and has been too radical over the years, which has reduced the traditional advantages of Danxin Shengzong.

This viewpoint was repeatedly emphasized by Master Mu at the meeting of the Council of Elders, and finally gained the support of most of the elders in the Council of Elders.

If all the twelve positions in the Tianzi area of ​​Danyun Peak were disciples of the martial arts direction, then
