Entrance Exam Placements

The disciples all held their breath upon hearing the Grand Elder's words, as their placements would most likely determine the future course of the lives. Those who were placed high up would be able to get the most cultivation resources, further separating themselves from those beneath them.

Such was the way the cultivation world worked, and each disciple knew they had to strive for the top, lest they be left behind.

"The placements of this exam are as such. The bottom seventy five percent are to be pseudo-outer disciples, while the next twenty percent are to be outer disciples," the Grand Elder stated without a blank expression. 

His words caused shock to fill many of the disciples, including John, who was surprised to see that most of the disciples couldn't even become true disciples of the sect. They would be pseudo disciples, which meant they would still have to prove themselves worthy in the future in order to be promoted to true outer disciples.
