The most important part of the apprenticeship ceremony was paying respects to the ancestral masters, and after Li Shiming had performed the grand salute to the ancestral tablets, he did the same to Elder Su, thus concluding the core of the apprenticeship ritual.
Next came the congratulations from various uncles and senior cultivators, as Elder Su collected one storage bag after another.
Li Shiming did not know what the gifts were, but he imagined that the presents from his Golden Core uncles and seniors would not be trivial.
The final item on the agenda was evaluating the cultivation of each brother and sister in the hall. One by one, they showcased their accomplishments, and they were either praised or criticized accordingly.
Xu Chuan told Li Shiming that this was a customary event, and its purpose was specifically for the Golden Core disciples.
Golden Core disciples who performed well would receive gifts from the Golden Core Elder, which was very important to them.
