Three days later, it was time for the newcomers of the cultivation department to compete.

"On the other side, I'll trouble you to take care of the little huzi. Lin He said to the other side.

"Yes. The other side replied a little reluctantly, and muttered a complaint: "Why do you set the time of the test today, it's really ......"

Lin He smiled helplessly, stepped forward and hugged the other side, and said comfortingly: "It's okay, you accompany Xiaohuzi to participate in the test, and you can also come to see our competition after the test." ”

"Woo......" The other side blushed slightly, leaned against Lin He's chest, and said in return: "Do you think that even if I accompany you to the game, it will not be useful, so I don't care so much." ”

"Uh......" Lin He said.

The other side looked at Lin He like this, broke away from his embrace, and said angrily: "That's really the case, hum!"

Seeing that the other side was angry, Lin He immediately stepped forward to appease him, until Ji Lina couldn't stand it anymore and coughed twice, and the other side was willing to let Lin He go.

"Come on, Lin He, you must win the first place. The other side hugged Lin He and encouraged.

"Yes. Lin He responded, then turned around and left, heading to the main square.

——————————————

Grand Place.

This time, the square was not as crowded as before, but only a few people.

After all, the newcomers of the cultivation department are not as good as those of the combat department and the Warrior Plantation Academy, and the winner can be separated in a short period of time, and he will compete for up to three days, and not everyone can understand the doorway.

When Lin He arrived, there were already many participating students standing in the center of the main square, and many people were a little surprised when they saw Lin He's arrival, but they were quickly relieved.

Until all the students who participated in the competition arrived, people saw a spirited old man striding towards the high platform of the square.

"Hello everyone. The old man glanced at the students under the high stage and said slowly.

People stared at the figure on the high platform, their eyes full of fanaticism, because this old man was now the number one cultivator in the Holy Plant Realm.

"The rules of this competition, let me repeat it again, the Ji Hong Peony you need to cultivate in this competition, within three days, cultivate the Ji Red Peony to the Spirit Plant, and the fastest one wins, do you all know?"

"Clear!"

"Alright, let's get started. Wei Huo showed his strength, distributed the Ji Hong Peony that had been placed on the high platform to everyone, and when he got the Ji Red Peony, the students immediately dispersed and sat down in a certain position in the main square.

Lin He picked a corner, and after sitting down, he immediately used planting power to detect and observe the situation of Jihong peony.

"If you are about to break through to the spirit plant, you only need to maintain a comfortable temperature in the constant temperature flower pot, and then through the irrigation of spirit materials and spiritual water, you can break through to the spirit plant in about two days. Lin He confirmed the situation and arranged the direction of the next cultivation.

"Two days is too long, it's hard to win the first place. Gilina said worriedly.

"Well, two days is the safest time for me, let's see if we can minimize the time when cultivating. Lin He sighed, and was faintly worried about whether he could win the first place.

"It's okay, and me, even if something goes wrong, I can help you fix it. Ji Lina held Lin He's hand and comforted.

"Yes. Lin He rubbed Ji Lina's head, thanked him, and then began to cultivate Ji Hong Peony.

Lin He put the red peony aside, and the planting power appeared in his hand to make a flower pot.

When the flower pot was ready, Lin He used the planting force to control the red peony and soil in the original flower pot, and carefully moved it to the flower pot.

Then Lin He began to make spiritual water and spiritual materials, and began to water the red peony.

Soon the time came to night, and in such a long time, Lin He kept repeating what was making spiritual materials and spiritual water, watering, and channeling, and he did not encounter any difficulties.

"Is this really just a competition to see whose planting power is strong and watering faster, so that Ji Hong Peony can become a spiritual plant faster?" Lin He said strangely in his heart, and he really couldn't understand it.

"Forget it, since that seems to be the case now, I'll go straight in this direction, Lina. Use your special skills and we'll speed things up. Lin He's heart was ruthless, he was no longer suspicious, and turned his head to Ji Lina and said.

"Okay. A pale yellow planting power appeared on Ji Lina's hands, and she first used it on Lin He, and then on Ji Hong's peony.

Lin He, who was originally a little tired, immediately became energetic, made spiritual water and spiritual materials, looked at the Ji Red Peony that accelerated the absorption, and watered these.

"En?" Wei Huo noticed the special nature of Lin He's side, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he smiled faintly: "What an interesting little girl, she actually has this special skill, it seems that they will be the first to experience the real test, I hope you don't let me down." ”

Remembering that the other party was someone that his old friend cared about, Wei Huo couldn't help but focus on it a little more.

At noon the next day, sure enough, when the others were resting and preparing to make spiritual water and spiritual materials, Lin He and them were pouring it continuously.

Soon the red peony will break through to the spirit plant stage.

"Huh......" Lin He exhaled with a pale face, and the movements in his hand also stopped, "It's finally good, the next thing is to wait for it to break through to the spirit plant stage on its own." ”

"Great, then Lin He should be the first. Jilina looked around and noticed that the progress of the others was still very slow, and said happily.

Lin He also looked around in the same way and said, "It should be." ”

Thinking that they should be the first, Lin He and Ji Lina sat on the ground very happily, waiting for the final moment to come. Excellent reading books

But......

"What's going on?" Lin He felt strange, "It's been three hours, why haven't you broken through to the Spirit Plant?"

According to Lin He's own calculations, Ji Hong Peony should have broken through to the Spirit Plant an hour ago.

"Is there something wrong?" said Gilina, worried.

Lin He immediately stood up and stepped forward to check.

When he probed the past little by little with his planting force, he found that there was nothing wrong, just when he was puzzled.

"What's wrong?" Ji Lina saw that Lin He's face was very ugly, and couldn't help but say worriedly: "What's wrong with Lin He?"

"Necrotic zone. Lin He said these three words mechanically.

"What!necrotic zone?how is it possible?!" Jilina's face turned pale when she heard this word, and then she was about to cry anxiously, "How can there be a necrotic zone? What can I do!?"

"Don't panic, the necrotic zone hasn't spread out yet, just cut it off. ”

As soon as Lin He's words came out, Ji Lina's heart suddenly settled down.

"But the necrotic zone is on the main stem. ”

"Lord...... Main stem. The originally stable heart was lifted again, and the words that originally wanted to urge Lin He to cut off the main stem were suddenly speechless.

Necrotic zone, the equivalent of cancer in humans.

It will only appear at this stage when the plant breaks through the spirit plant, and it is impossible for the plant with the necrotic zone to break through to the spirit plant, unless it will be cut off.

However, this necrotic zone is present in the main stem.

The main stem is equivalent to the limbs of a person, and cutting off the limbs is equivalent to amputation, which is an irreparable injury, if the main stem is cut off and let it break through to the spiritual plant stage, when he breaks through to the germination stage of the Dao one day, he will become a disabled person.

Looking at Lin He, whose face was ugly, Wei Huo smiled and said, "Okay, the test is coming, Lin He, can you be ruthless?"

Lin He looked at the season red peony in front of him very entangled, at a loss.

"What should I do? What should I do? Cut him off? Yes! Cut him off and I won, I will be able to get the first place, and I will be able to worship under the name of Mr. Wei Huo."

But...... It will be disabled, and in the future it will become an incomplete person, what should I do?'

At this time, Lin He already understood, this is the real test of this big competition.

'Why did Mr. Wei Huo come up with this question?'

If I don't cut it, there is a solution, but it will take half a day, and the others are already close to this test, and if they choose to cut it, then I will lose this opportunity." ’

"Lin He......" Ji Lina held Lin He's hand, she knew what he was struggling with, "No matter what decision it is, I support you." ”

"Thank you, thank you, Lina. Lin He was moved in his heart, and then said as if he had decided: "Lina, help me, I want to use cultivation techniques to repair the necrotic area." ”

"Good!"

“......”

When Yu Huo saw Lin He's actions, he already knew in his heart what decision they had made, and he was disappointed in his heart, "It seems that you really don't fit my path." ’

Time passed, and the newcomer competition in the cultivation department soon came to an end.

"What's your name?" Wei Huo looked at the young man in front of him and asked lightly.

"Zhang Hao. ”

"Okay, this time you won the first place, and I will take you as an apprentice. Yu Huo said.

"Thank you, master!" Zhang Hao knelt down on one knee and made a bowing salute.

And Lin He, who was in the audience, looked at the scene on the stage, although he was disappointed in his heart, he did not regret it.

Although he was in second place, he was not ashamed of his heart.

"Even if I don't have the guidance of the No. 1 cultivator, I still have to grow, and even if I grow slowly, I will go astray. Lin He said firmly as if comforted.

——————————————

"He didn't pass the test. Nangong forced to look at the result of the game in his hand and sighed slightly.

"Yes, the rules of the competition clearly say that the fastest wins, but he is willing to go far, old friend, he is really not suitable for my cultivation skills. Wei Huo's tone was also a little regretful, but he didn't regret it.

"Alas, it's a pity, it's a pity!" Nangong knew that the ending had been decided, and nothing could be changed.

"Hmph, don't worry, for the sake of him, he is the person he values, even if I can't teach him, but I also secretly point out. Wei Huo said.

"That's fine. ”
