69 The Grand Hall of Promotions

The Peak of the Flying Stone was located on the west side of the Qing-Yun Sect, and its Qi was so abundant that it ranked among the top three for amount. On top of the peak stood the Grand Hall of Promotions, a hall that was used for the sole purpose of measuring the capabilities of an outer court disciple after they had satisfied the minimum requirement of Spirit Stage tier four.

A disciple would only be accepted into the inner court if they passed the assessment process, where an inner court elder would usually question the disciple’s background and evaluate their strength. The disciple then had to stand before the Qing-Yun Sect’s ancestral memorial and vow to follow the Three Rules and Twelve Admonitions, before finally placing their very own Soul Lantern in front of it. Only then could they become a recognized disciple of the Qing-Yun.
