The Divine Sword Sect's annual recruitment had fully commenced.
Besides the original eight counties of Sword State, one county of Ming State, and three counties of Xuanzhou...
The Divine Sword Sect now also occupied the territories that originally belonged to the Xuanming Sect, that is, the other six counties of Xuanzhou.
This expansion brought the Sect's territory to a total of eighteen counties.
The recruitment of disciples for the entire Divine Sword Sect would unfold across these eighteen counties.
Typically, the process would consist of an initial selection and a final examination.
The initial selection would have recruiters of the Divine Sword Sect proceed to the eighteen counties, with the cooperation of the local Divine Sword Mansions, to choose from among the commoners those with adequate root bone qualifications.
