Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 942: Chapter 2: The One-in-Ten-Thousand Selection

On the west coast of the Qing Province Continent, the sky is vast and the sea wide, with countless waves chasing each other, crashing onto the shore, transforming into white foam.

Under the tall coconut trees lies an endless stretch of golden beaches.

The sea has washed up a large number of pebbles, which glisten under the sun like countless pearls, giving the largest beach on the West Coast the name Pearl Beach.

A few hermit crabs crawl leisurely across the beach.

Suddenly, two ”little whirlwinds” swirl in.

”Wow, this is the sea.”

”Zhiyo~”

A clever and adorable little girl and a cute little dog find themselves incredibly excited upon seeing this beautiful blue sea.

The two little ones, born and raised in an inland area with no sea, were thrilled to see the real ocean for the first time.

The girl and the beast enjoyed themselves immensely on the beach.

Not far away, a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl with a rosy face and crescent moon-shaped eyes seemed full of spirit and energy.

Behind her was a carriage.

This group looked travel-worn, evidently having hurried to Pearl Beach over several days.

The fishermen drying nets on the beach saw these clearly out-of-town children and couldn’t help but wonder which family was so trusting to let these kids run around outside.

At that moment, from behind the girl, a head emerged from a bamboo basket that was half her height.

It was a cute little baby who had just woken up.

His first action upon waking was to reach out his small hand to grab the girl’s hair.

”Little Di Shen, I’ve told you many times not to grab my hair.”

Ye Lingyue was annoyed.

Indeed, this group consisted of Ye Lingyue and her companions.

They had spent more than half a month traveling from the frigid inland to the hot and humid West Coast.

Ye Lingyue had taken the Bone Sealing Pill, causing slight changes in her appearance which she was quite pleased with, but inexplicably, Little Di Shen was apparently displeased with the smaller version of Ye Lingyue.

He expressed his displeasure simply by mischievously pulling Ye Lingyue’s hair, like a naughty boy bullying a little girl.

Only after feeding Little Di Shen did he finally settle down and sleep peacefully.

Ye Lingyue approached a fisherman to inquire about the Lonely Moon Sea’s disciple recruitment.

”Oh, you mean those immortals in the middle of the sea?”

The fisherman, face sun-kissed red and black, broke into a large smile.

He enthusiastically pointed to the other side of the sea.

”The immortals live in the deep sea. Every year, between late February and early March, they set up a sign-up point at the village entrance. Only those who qualify can ride the immortals’ ship to the sea to learn skills.”

The local fishermen are simple folks, mostly ordinary people unaware of Primordial Power and spiritual power. To them, those disciples and elders of Lonely Moon Sea who can fly in the sky and traverse hundreds of meters in an instant are immortals.

Ye Lingyue learned that many have arrived at Pearl Beach recently.

She was lucky; her arrival coincided with early March, with three days remaining before the deadline for this year’s selection at Lonely Moon Sea.

Following the fisherman’s directions, Ye Lingyue walked along the beach.

By a large, dark brown rock, she saw a dense crowd.

In the center of the crowd was a white-haired old woman.

The old woman seemed about fifty or sixty, yet her eyes, full of experiences, revealed her true age as much older than her appearance.

Unlike ordinary martial arts elders, the old woman’s limbs were slender, her gaze reserved, aura subtle, clearly not an ordinary martial artist; she must be someone of significant spiritual power cultivation, a Fang Venerate Level character.

Beside the old woman stood several male and female disciples, mostly around eighteen or nineteen, equipped with various spiritual artifacts, surrounded by strong Primordial Power fluctuations.

”Wow, all are Earth-grade top-grade spiritual artifacts, and these people’s cultivation reached the Reincarnation Realm Three or Four Paths.”

Ye Lingyue was inwardly startled at the sight.

She initially thought that with her current strength at the Second Layer of Heaven and Earth Tribulation (equivalent to Reincarnation Realm Third Path), after using the Bone Sealing Pill, she wouldn’t be considered weak in Lonely Moon Sea.

But now she realized she was gravely mistaken.

The white-haired old woman hosting the initial selection was clearly in charge, and her disciples, at most, were from the Lonely Moon Sea Outer Sect, that is, Sea Star Island disciples.

The Ordinary Outer Sect disciples’ strength was only slightly inferior to Yue Mei of Yaochi Immortal Pavilion; Lonely Moon Sea indeed deserves the title of strongest among the Three Sects.

Ye Lingyue’s expression became grave, dismissing any previous underestimation of Lonely Moon Sea.

Among those gathered around the white-haired old woman were men and women, young and old; some came to participate in the selection, while others accompanied the youth, parents eager for their children to succeed.

As the largest sect on Qing Province Continent, countless people dream of entering Lonely Moon Sea.

More than twenty days had passed since registration began, and in the last three or four days, hundreds signed up daily, indicating the high demand for Lonely Moon Sea’s annual selection.

Ye Lingyue, carrying Little Di Shen, moved closer.

A father and son pair was arguing fiercely with the white-haired old woman.

”You say my son’s aptitude is too poor, unfit to join Lonely Moon Sea? Blind as a bat, my son is Tianye County’s top prodigy with Reincarnation Three Paths. If he is not qualified to join Lonely Moon Sea, then who is! I believe there’s something fishy here; I heard yesterday a Reincarnation Second Realm passed the selection and joined Lonely Moon Sea. Now my son didn’t even finish the preliminary selection, and you claim he’s unqualified. Clearly, you’ve taken bribes and are corrupt!”

The speaker was a noble-dressed man, accompanied by a dozen guards.

Beside the man was a proud-looking young boy, whose Primordial Power was strong, and he was handsome, though arrogant with his nose in the air.

Less than thirteen years old and reached Reincarnation Three Paths?

Such cultivation yet unable to join Lonely Moon Sea.

Despite knowing beforehand that Lonely Moon Sea’s selection was one in a thousand, no one anticipated such strictness.

Reincarnation Second Realm can join, yet Reincarnation Three Paths cannot; Lonely Moon Sea truly can’t be so unfair?

The man’s shouting drew a public uproar.

Some youth lacking Reincarnation Three Paths’ strength began reconsidering.

Some opportunists even started causing a disturbance.

At that moment, the white-haired old woman suddenly chuckled coldly.
