Chapter 433: The Imperial City Sacred Courtyard (4)
"Senior Brother Ji Dong, we ............"
Guan Linlin and the others also collected their minds at this time, suppressed the panic in their hearts, and then asked Ji Dong.
Something happened to the right talent, and they were simply more and more convinced by Ji Dong, you know, if it wasn't for Ji Dong to let them cultivate with him from the beginning, God knows if there would be them among the people who ran out.
"Don't make a sound, continue to cultivate, I guess no one will take care of us this night." Smiling slightly, Ji Dong waved his hand, signaling that several people could continue to practice with their eyes closed.
Although Feng Wushu didn't say anything when he left, he believed that the other party would definitely want to let them stay here for a while, and as for when they were the leaders, it depended on the mood of the people.
In any case, they have already resisted the first hurdle, as long as they are careful everywhere, then even if there is a test ahead, they can pass it safely.
"Cultivation, everyone hurry up and cultivate obediently, and wait patiently for the arrangement of the inner courtyard."
When Ji Dong said this, several young people didn't ask any more, and as they spoke, they obediently closed their eyes again, and then carefully used their skills and exercises.
The previous five people are a good example, they have all come to this point, and no one wants to follow in the footsteps of the five.
"This Song Mian is a powerful character, such a big thing happened, he never even opened his eyes, this concentration is also admirable."
After arranging the others, Ji Dong's eyes couldn't help but look at the corner not far away, where Song Mian from Nandu Academy had been sitting there with his eyes closed and cultivating, even if Feng Wushu brought people here, he hadn't opened his eyes.
It seems that no matter what the quality of the other party is, this person still has merit in terms of concentration and diligence alone.
Everyone's strength is not in vain, Song Mian can have today's strength, talent is naturally a more important aspect, but if the other party is idle all day long and does not want to make progress, it is impossible to have the current strength.
"After he really becomes a disciple of the Holy Academy, this person has to be guarded." Secretly had a plan in his heart, he didn't think much about it anymore, and as he spoke, he also closed his eyes and cultivated leisurely.
The Five Elements Technique had just begun to cultivate, and the strength had gradually emerged, all he had to do was to seize every minute and every second, and not waste this great resource.
In the following time, the whole hall was simply quiet and terrifying, with the experience of the past, the rest of the people did not say that they complained, even if they said a word, they had to be careful, as for when the people from the inner courtyard came to instruct them, they just waited obediently.
The first night spent in the inner courtyard was also a deep memory for the new disciples.
The night in the inner courtyard is really very quiet, but this quiet is indescribably tense and depressing for everyone.
Everyone knew in their hearts that after this night, God knows what will await them tomorrow, in short, it seems that it is not easy to truly become a member of the inner court.
When the morning sun shines into the hall through the window, young people open their eyes one after another, and there is inevitably a trace of confusion and worry in the depths of their eyes.
"Huh? Someone's coming? β
Ji Dong's eyelids moved slightly, but he didn't open his eyes, but his keen hearing made him hear very clearly, and a slight sound of footsteps was coming from far and near, obviously coming towards this side.
"It seems that the Holy Courtyard will not continue to test everyone's patience, but I don't know if there will be new tricks." He originally thought that the inner courtyard would continue to dry them for a few days, but now it seems that they should have passed yesterday's test.
At this time, the footsteps outside were getting closer and closer, and the others also heard the sound, and hurriedly closed their eyes one by one, continuing to pretend to be cultivating.
"Squeak!!
The door of the hall opened, and the gentle sunlight poured into the main hall, which could not help but make everyone in the hall feel a warmth. When they opened their eyes in the morning light, everyone vaguely saw that a white-clothed figure with white hair floated into the main hall, just like an independent outsider.
"Squeak!!" As the white-clothed figure entered the main hall, the door of the palace was closed again, and the dazzling morning light was directly blocked outside, and at this time, everyone saw clearly that the person who came was actually an old man in white with white hair!
This old man in white looks about sixty years old, and there are not many wrinkles on his face, but it gives people a sense of vicissitudes of life, maybe he loves white, the old man is white all over his body, and even the shoes under his feet are white.
At this moment, the old man was looking at everyone with a smile on his face, but he nodded without a trace, as if he was quite satisfied with this year's rookie disciples.
"ThisβThis is ............"
The sudden arrival of the old man in white naturally made everyone in the hall feel a little surprised, and between speaking, everyone couldn't help but look at each other for a while, but they didn't know what to do!
"Hehe, let me introduce myself, the old man is the elder of the Inner Court Law Hall, Wu Xinxin, wait for me to call Elder Wu."
Seeing a group of young people looking at him in disbelief, the old man in white couldn't help but smile slightly, and introduced himself to everyone, that kind of natural state is like a very ordinary old man, and there is no elder at all.
"Whoa!!"
When the old man in white finished introducing himself, the young people didn't dare to delay any longer, and quickly stood up between words, and without saying a word, they bent down to the old man in unison.
"See Elder Wu!!"
Although I don't know what organization the Law Decree Hall is in the inner court, since the old man in front of him is the elder of the Holy Court, then of course he is a big man who should not be underestimated, after all, even their respective academies, the elders are already high-ranking existences.
"All of them are excused!!"
Seeing that everyone saluted him in unison, the old man in white smiled with satisfaction, waved his hand at everyone casually, and said, "You don't need to be restrained, the old man is here this time because of the order of Vice President Feng Wudi, and came to teach you some rules of the Holy Academy, everyone just needs to learn seriously, but there is no need to be nervous." β
As he spoke, he walked directly towards the depths of the hall, and when the words fell, he had come to the sandalwood chair in the depths of the hall, and then sat down leisurely.
"The rules of the Holy Temple? It turned out that this hall of law was the institution in charge of the rules of the Holy Church. β
"The institution that makes the rules, this is an amazing institution, it seems that this Elder Wu is really a big man in the Holy Court."
"You must behave well in front of this person, and maybe you can get the attention of this person............"
While following the steps of the old man in white, the newcomer disciples couldn't help but tremble, and they all became more and more cautious and solemn.
How much the Holy Courtyard attaches great importance to the rules, the experience of the five people yesterday evening is a good portrayal, and now the elders in charge of the rules of the Holy Courtyard have come to teach everyone the rules of the Holy Academy, and of course they don't dare to slack off at all.
"Alright, time is precious, let's start now!" At this time, the old man in white who had already sat down smiled again, and as soon as the words fell, he waved his hand violently, and suddenly, a large stack of books appeared in front of him, a full meter high.
"Shhh......... It's ............"
Seeing the large stack of books that the old man took out, everyone present subconsciously gasped, and everyone's pupils were dilated several times!
This large stack of books should be the number of fifty books, and fifty books are actually stacked more than a meter high, you can imagine how thick each book is!
"Good fellow, this book is too thick, isn't it? How many rules do you have to have in the inner court? Looking at the books in front of them, everyone subconsciously swallowed and spit, and their palms were a little sweaty.
"One copy per person, you can come forward and pick it up yourself." The old man in white didn't care what the mood of the crowd was, and gave an order as he spoke, signaling that everyone could come forward and get the book.
Hearing the old man's command, although everyone was depressed, they still obediently stepped forward one by one, and took a book and returned to their places.
After a short time, forty-five people got a book one after another, and everyone's face became more and more gloomy.
"It's so heavy, it's the first time I've seen such a thick book."
"Who's to say it isn't? Isn't it really the rules of the inner court? If so, how long will it take to write them down? β
"Whatever, it's not us anyway, there are so many people, I think everyone is almost there............"
With the book in hand, everyone muttered a little, but they didn't dare to show it too much.
"The Sacred Courtyard Ceremony? Hehe, the name is domineering enough. β
Ji Dong also got a book, holding the thick book in his hand, he couldn't help but glance at the name of the book, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
For learning the rules of the Holy Academy, he naturally has no pressure at all, although the book in front of him is indeed a little thick, but even if it is thick, it is nothing, with his ability to awaken his spiritual power and never forget, no matter how thick the book is, he can remember it again.
On the other hand, Guan Linlin, Jian Qingqing and others, like everyone else, were all bitter and depressed.
It's a pity that he can still help them with other things, but now that he is learning the rules of the Holy Academy, I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to help.
"Okay, we've got the books, so let's get started!"
At this time, the old man in white on the sandalwood chair raised his hand and put away the remaining five books, and then smiled at everyone.
In the main hall, forty-five young people each held a thick book in their hands, and their eyes were all staring at the Elder Wu of the Law Ling Hall in front of them, waiting for the other party's instructions.
"The book you are holding in your hands now is the Holy Court Dictionary of my Inner Court, which not only records all the rules and regulations of the Inner Court, but also some records of the major events that have happened in the Inner Court over the years, as well as the various constituent institutions of the Inner Court.
Elder Wu always had a faint smile on his face, giving people a sense of approachability, if it weren't for the fact that everyone already knew his identity, I am afraid that many people would think that this was a teacher in the world.
Of course, everyone understands in their hearts that to be able to become the elder of the Holy Academy's Law Hall, the person in front of them must be a powerful character, but it is difficult for them to see it.
"I see, after a long time, this book is not only full of rules and disciplines of the inner court, but there are so many contents, let me say, no matter how strict the holy court is, there will not be so many rules and regulations!"
"It's okay, it's okay, fortunately, if it's all rules and regulations, I'm afraid it's really enough for us to study for ten days and a half..............."
Hearing Elder Wu's brief introduction to the Sacred Courtyard Ceremony, everyone's hearts couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
"The rules and disciplines of the inner court are all recorded on the first hundred pages of the Holy Court canon, your task is very simple, use the shortest time to memorize all the rules and disciplines of the first hundred pages in your head, whoever writes them down can become a disciple of the Holy Court, and if there are still people who can't remember it within ten days, then you can only say goodbye to the Holy Court."
Elder Wu's voice sounded again, but after his words fell this time, the spirits of everyone present who had just relaxed a little became nervous again uncontrollably.
"Is there any mistake? A hundred pages? How hard is it to have 100 pages? β
"Good fellow, it's too hard for us to memorize all a hundred pages, right?"
"It's over, it's over, it's over, my brain is not smart, and it takes ten days to memorize a hundred pages of rules and disciplines, which is simply fatal!"
"Can you not be so strict? I fought with my life to get a place to join the Holy Academy, if I died at this level, wouldn't it be difficult to see if I died? β
"Be content, it's only a hundred pages, if it's the whole book, even if we give it a year, we can't memorize it!"
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β
The people present were all geniuses from the major academies, but their talents were basically all reflected in cultivation, and if it was said that they had memorized the rules and disciplines of the academy, they had never trained for this.
What's even worse is that the inner court actually set a time limit for everyone, if you can't memorize it within ten days, you will be eliminated from the game, such a terrifying punishment is really difficult for everyone to accept.
"It's over, Senior Brother Ji Dong, you have to help me!!"
On the side of Qindu University, except for Ji Dong, the other four people all showed anxious looks, but Han Lengqing on the side was quite calm, and he should have a certain degree of certainty.
"Senior sister, I really can't help with this kind of thing, but senior sister has to believe in yourself, as long as you calm down and understand it carefully, it is still easy to write down a hundred pages of things."
Seeing Jian Qingqing asking for help from himself, Ji Dong could only spread his hands helplessly, but he really couldn't help. Although his spiritual power is strong, it is impossible to affect other people, not to mention that there is a super strong person in front of him, if he cheats, I am afraid that all of them will be expelled from the Holy Courtyard.
"I'd rather go to Hell Mountain to fight with the beasts than carry this thing." Lu Shenghua's face was also full of bitterness, and as he spoke, he opened the book and glanced at the dense small words on it, which was simply a head or two big.
"Don't be resistant, as long as you have the right mentality, ten days is definitely enough." With a frown, Ji Dong had to raise his voice slightly and comforted a few people. And because his voice was a little louder, it was directly heard by the people around him, and suddenly, a series of surprised eyes were projected towards him, which was full of hostility.
"Doom ............"
Seeing that everyone was looking towards him, obviously very dissatisfied with his remarks, Ji Dong couldn't help but breathe, but he also knew that he was afraid that he was a little angry.
"Well, this young man has a very good attitude, but you want to learn from him." At this time, Elder Wu, who had started with it, also looked at Ji Dong, and then praised it with great satisfaction.
It's just that it's okay if he doesn't say it, when he says this, the rest of the people look at Ji Dong's eyes, and they are almost about to breathe fire, and they can't wait to step forward and tear Ji Dong's mouth apart.
"It seems that everyone is a little resistant, since this is the case, then the old decay will give everyone a little motivation, it's better to be like this, the first ten complete the recitation task, the old decay will reward them appropriately, as for what to reward, I will depend on the situation later, in short, it will not be too bad."
Elder Wu obviously came prepared, and as his words fell this time, the eyes of everyone present suddenly lit up, and there was inevitably a trace of heat in their hearts.
No matter how they are all elders of the inner court, how can the things taken out by such a big man be too bad? At this moment, some people who were originally very reluctant began to hold back their strength invisibly!
"There's even a reward?"
Ji Dong's eyes also lit up suddenly, he was still thinking about whether he would be the first person to complete the task later, but now it seems that there is no need to think about it.
If he doesn't grasp this opportunity in his hands, won't he be able to get along with himself?
"Okay, you can start, I hope that at this hour in ten days, everyone present has already completed the task, otherwise, even if Elder Ben has the heart to help him, he will not have the ability."
As soon as the words fell, he sat down directly on the sandalwood chair, and slowly closed his eyes, as if he had settled down.
"Hell, what are you waiting for, start memorizing, the top ten are rewarded!!"
"Fight, even if I am so tired that I vomit blood, I have to fight for a place!"
"The first one this time is mine! No one wants to fight with me! β
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β
There will be brave men under the heavy reward, and after learning that the first ten people who complete the recitation task will have a mysterious prize to win, no one will complain at this time, but hurriedly sit down cross-legged, and then quickly open the book and recite it seriously, even a few people from Qindu University are no exception.
"This ......... It's still the best reward to use!! β
Seeing that everyone began to recite, Ji Dong couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth, and he was really speechless in his heart. It seems that these people are deliberately complaining, and they may not really be able to complete the task.
"No matter what, no matter what, this first must not be given to others." Smiling slightly, he didn't think much about it anymore, and also opened the Holy Courtyard Ceremony and began to read it seriously.
A hundred pages of rules and regulations, this is really nothing to him, and as long as he simply skims through it, he can naturally memorize them all in his head.
However, he didn't want to be too prominent, so he didn't look too fast, and while watching, his attention was always paying attention to the other people around him, secretly controlling the speed of others, lest someone suddenly finish it, and he didn't know why.
"Huh? It seems that the cold girl is quite good at memorization. β
In his observation, the speed of everyone's recitation is basically not much different, and among them, Han Lengqing, who is sitting not far from him, is obviously better than the others, and when the others are still reciting the first page, she has already turned to the third page, and judging from her expression, it doesn't seem to be very difficult.
"That Song Mian doesn't seem to be good at these, which is quite interesting." Compared with Han Lengqing's speed, Song Mian was obviously a little lacking, looking at his frowning expression, it seemed to be very difficult.
Frankly speaking, this kind of brain-using thing can't be said to have nothing to do with strength, but it will definitely not be completely proportional, and he saw that several people in the golden period were more efficient than Song Mian.
However, no matter how efficient these people were, he would make sure that he was twice as fast as the fastest one, and by the time others had turned to the fifth page, he had already quietly turned to the tenth page, and no one was allowed to surpass him.
Time flow, half a day's time period is fleeting, and after most of the day's recitation, many people are already a little pale, but they have not memorized many pages, but their thinking is becoming more and more confused.
Of course, there are still masters, such as Han Lengqing.
In half a day, Han Lengqing had already turned over more than fifty pages, and looking at her appearance, she seemed to be completely silent in it, without the slightest hint of exhaustion.
In addition, Guan Linlin and Duan Jianghe's speed is not slow, they have actually read no less than thirty pages, and they are in quite good shape, even Jian Qingqing, who has been noisy before, has a harvest of more than 20 pages at this time, it seems that the girl's natural personality still gives her a certain advantage.
On the side of Qindu University, only Lu Shenghua's situation is a little worse, with only a dozen pages of grades, but if it is calculated according to the ten-day period, he should be able to complete the task.
Another half a day passed, and soon, the sun slowly descended below the horizon, and the room gradually became dark, and at this time, Elder Wu on the seat casually threw it away, and a huge night pearl ran out, directly illuminating the entire room for everyone to continue reciting.
When night completely fell, many people had already chosen to take a break for the time being, and did not continue without stopping, and at this time, the book in Han Lengqing's hand had already turned over more than seventy pages!
