Becoming Sect Master: My Rules Are a Bit Wild

Lin Fan stands at the helm of a struggling sect. Determined to turn the tides of fortune, he lays out a set of peculiar yet ironclad rules for new recruits:

1. Priority admission for those bearing the surnames Xiao, Ye, Shi, or Lin.

2. Priority admission for those who converse with rings or other mystical objects.

3. Priority admission for those who have braved three major disasters and possess a mysterious fiancée.

4. Priority admission for those spurned in marriage and whose parents have mysteriously vanished.

5. Priority admission for those who are targeted or harassed upon arriving at the sect’s gates.

6. And more…

One day, the Fifth Elder rushes in with exciting news. “Sect Master, great news! We have a candidate who has been rejected in marriage, wears a mysterious smile, and talks to rings. His parents are missing, too.”

“What? Quickly bring him in, I want to take him as… Wait, what’s his name?”

“His surname is Tang.”

“Tang?! Wait, don’t bring him here. I’ll personally intervene to block his destiny and send a letter. Introduce him to the rival sect… and be tactful. From today onwards, I will be in seclusion. Do not disturb me unless it is absolutely necessary!”

“And guard the sect’s secret manuals well; we must not be robbed!”

Fifth Elder: “Huh?!”
