"Her luck is really good, although she didn't pass the second level of assessment, but she got the personal guidance of Senior Brother Wei. Senior Brother Wei directly pointed out her shortcomings and asked her to concentrate on exercising her concentration, which can save a lot of time, and she will definitely be able to pass the assessment next year. ”

"If only I could get Senior Brother Wei's guidance, maybe I could directly pass the assessment of the inner disciples this year!"

"Senior Brother Wei will not point out others easily, this girl is lucky!"

Looking at the back of the girl leaving, a trace of envy appeared in the eyes of many young men and women in gray, and there were many discussions. These gray-clothed young men and women are all outer disciples of the Red Fire Gate, and they usually have their own responsibilities, because today is the day of the annual outer disciple assessment of the Red Fire Gate, so they were summoned to assist in the holding of the assessment.

"Everyone, please be quiet!" Wei Wenyan said with a solemn face: "There are still people who are being assessed, and we are waiting for the results with peace of mind." ”

"That's what Senior Brother Wei said. ”

"Senior Brother Wei is thoughtful. ”

Many outer disciples echoed a sentence, and then kept silent.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

As soon as everyone quieted down, two more slight crisp sounds came out one after another in the field, obviously the tea set was broken, and two more people failed in the second level of the assessment. Counting the girl at the beginning, in just a short time, there were already three people who were struggling in the level of making tea.

The second level of assessment is more difficult than the first level of assessment! Realizing this, the teenagers and girls who were making tea suddenly had a dark cloud in their hearts, and no one wanted to be eliminated, and the atmosphere in the field suddenly became more tense and dignified.

"How could the tea set suddenly shatter?" Lu Chen's brows furrowed, and a hint of surprise rose in his heart. If the tea set is broken, it means that the second level of the assessment has failed. If you fail the assessment, if you want to join the Red Fire Gate, you will have to wait another year. Thinking of this, Lu Chen also had to take it seriously.

After thinking about it slightly, Lu Chen had a rough idea in his heart. There are two reasons for the rupture of the tea set, one is external and the other is internal. And there are three external causes - fire, water, and tea. The flame used to make tea is directly controlled by Lu Chen, and it can be directly eliminated at this moment. Immediately, while making tea, Lu Chen dipped his fingers in a little water and some tea leaves, put them in his mouth and tasted them, and after a while, he was sure that there was no problem with the water and tea leaves.

In this way, it is self-evident where the problem is, and the tea used to make tea in the second level of assessment has problems!

Thinking of this, Lu Chen's heart moved slightly, and a mist-shrouded, sacred and majestic dragon gate suddenly appeared at the center of his eyebrows, which was Lu Chen's sea knowledge dragon gate. Knowing the sea and knowing the sea dragon gate are invisible to the naked eye, and the people present naturally can't detect the abnormal changes at the center of Lu Chen's eyebrows.

As soon as the Zhihai Longmen appeared, a gap was slowly opened, and a strand of hair-like power of knowing the sea rose from the ten acres of Zhihai Sea behind the Zhihai Longmen, passing through the Dragon Gate, and this wisp of sea-knowing power stretched out to the tea set like an octopus's tentacles.

The power of knowing the sea touched the tea set, Lu Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, and he carefully checked it, not letting go of any corner of the tea set. The tea set that cannot be seen through by the naked eye, under the inspection of the power of knowing the sea, is nowhere to hide, and Lu Chen looks at it little by little.

After a while, Lu Chen's brows twitched slightly, and there was a hint of clarity in his eyes. No wonder the tea set will suddenly break! Although these tea sets in front of me look no different from ordinary tea sets, they are very different inside.

If you are making an ordinary tea set, you will not add saltpeter to it at all. And in the tea set that Lu Chen is using to make tea at the moment, there are clearly and evenly distributed saltpeter particles.

Saltpeter has a very strange property of being able to expand in response to drastic changes in the strength of the flame. If the flame strength changes slowly, or decreases slowly, the saltpeter will not expand. And once the strength of the flame changes, the mountain peak strength increases, or the cliff jumping potential decreases, the flame saltpeter will expand excessively.

After the tea set is made, it will be set, and the tea set with saltpeter particles will break if it encounters a strong change in the strength of the flame.

The addition of saltpeter to the tea set itself is the internal cause, and the person who manipulates the flame to make tea is the external cause.

Tea is boiled over a small and slow simmer, but it also contains many variations, and needs to be adjusted in time according to the reaction of water and tea. At this time, it is a great test of the mastery of the person who makes the tea to control the flame. Whether you want to increase the flame or lower the flame, you can't change too eagerly. Once the change is too abrupt, it will inevitably lead to the rapid expansion of the saltpeter particles in the tea set, and eventually make the tea set rupture and fail the assessment.

Although the truth is very simple to say, when you actually do it, you will understand how difficult it is. Even if Lu Chen's control of the heat was already proficient in his heart, his expression was slightly dignified at this time. Before he was very aggressive and directly made tea, he was really fearless for the ignorant.

The power of knowing the sea was about to be evacuated from the tea set, and suddenly Lu Chen noticed an interesting change. If he used the power of sea knowledge to completely isolate the flame saltpeter's induction into flame changes! If he completely wrapped the flame saltpeter particles in the tea set with the power of sea awareness, the tea set in front of Lu Chen would be no different from an ordinary tea set, and it would not break due to the drastic change in flame intensity.

Although it was easy to pass the second level of the assessment by doing so, Lu Chen gave up this idea after smiling slightly.

Although the ten questions on the first level of the question paper are all basic knowledge, they cover a wide range of topics, and it is obvious that the person who wrote the question is to test the mastery of theoretical knowledge of himself and others.

In the second level, the tea set used to make tea is added to the flame saltpeter particles, and the flame saltpeter particles are very sensitive to the change of flame intensity, and the person who asked the question should want to test the degree of control of the flame by himself and others. In this case, Lu Chen also wanted to see how much control he had over the flames.

Sinking down to make tea, Lu Chen gradually became handy.

Suddenly, Lu Chen's heart moved, whether to tell Jiang Li the secret hidden in the tea set. After thinking about it slightly, Lu Chen gave up this idea. First, at this time, Jiang Li was immersed in boiling tea, and if he suddenly transmitted the sound to the past, I am afraid it would backfire. Second, although it is an assessment at the moment, it is also a way of cultivation. Under the tremendous pressure of failing the assessment and not being able to become a disciple of the outer sect of the Red Fire Sect, Jiang Li's potential that would not explode at ordinary times would be tapped at this time, which would instead help Jiang Li's own improvement. If Lu Chen told Jiang Li the secret in the tea set, it would be tantamount to ruining Jiang Li's chance to explore his own potential.

Thinking of this, the Sea Awareness Dragon Gate at Lu Chen's eyebrows opened a little more, and another hair-like sea knowledge power rose above the Sea Knowledge, and as soon as the power of Sea Awareness appeared, it was like a tentacle, quickly passing through the Sea Awareness Dragon Gate and extending to Jiang Li's side. Although Lu Chen decided not to tell Jiang Li about the secret hidden in the tea set, it did not mean that Lu Chen would ignore Jiang Li. If there is a problem with Jiang Li's control of the flames, Lu Chen will use the power of sea knowledge to correct it as soon as possible to prevent Jiang Li's tea set from breaking.

Lu Chen's behavior can be regarded as cheating. It's just that none of the people present can find out.

With the passage of time, Jiang Li has made three mistakes, and when he made the first two mistakes, Lu Chen had already planned to correct them, but at the last moment, Jiang Li still resolved the crisis through his own adjustment. And the third time, until the last moment, Jiang Li still did not adjust. Lu Chen didn't delay any longer, and the power of knowing the sea directly invaded the tea set, suppressing the flame saltpeter particles that were about to expand.

"Click-"

Suddenly, an extremely slight sound came from the tea set used by Jiang Li. Looking closely, there is a crack on Jiang Li's tea set that is thinner than a hair, and this crack has a tendency to continue to expand, if it is allowed to develop, Jiang Li's tea set is bound to crack and fall.

Jiang Li was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, his hands that controlled the flames were faintly trembling, and he kept praying in his heart that his tea set would not break.

"It's strange, the tea set really hasn't cracked!" Jiang Li, who was sweating profusely, was suddenly stunned. Although I don't know what peculiarities the tea has, but one after another, some people's tea sets have been broken, and Jiang Li has secretly estimated the characteristics of the tea set. Just now, as soon as he was slightly negligent, a crack appeared in the tea set, and Jiang Li immediately understood that his tea set was probably about to burst, but at the last moment, the expanding crack on the tea set stopped inexplicably.

"Haha, Lao Tzu Jiren has his own natural appearance!" I couldn't understand what was going on, Jiang Ji laughed out loud.

Jiang Li didn't seize the time to stabilize his mind at this time, control the changes in the flames, and even had time to be complacent there. Noticing Jiang Li's eyebrows, Lu Chen was speechless for a while, and slightly let go of some of the power of sea knowledge to suppress the saltpeter in the tea set.

"Click-" The crack on Jiang Li's tea set suddenly extended a little further. Seeing this, Jiang Li's face changed sharply, and he immediately began to gather his mind and focus on the control of the flames.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

......

As time passed, the crisp sound of the tea set cracking could be heard one after another in the field. Some people are not skilled enough to control the heat, which causes the tea set to break. For others, because their minds are not focused enough, they are easily influenced by the outside world, which leads to the change of flames, and eventually the tea set breaks. There are also some people, although they are already proficient in the control of the heat and their minds are focused enough, but they can't withstand the pressure of the assessment and perform abnormally...... For various reasons, the result is that the tea set is broken and the assessment fails.

As the incense stick drew to a close, many people stopped and put the brewed tea aside. Then he closed his eyes and began to exercise and recuperate. Boiling tea seems simple, but in fact it consumes a lot, whether it is true qi or spiritual power. After many people finished making tea, their breathing became heavy, their faces were slightly pale, and there were grains of sweat on their foreheads, which was due to the consumption of too much true qi and spiritual power.

"Okay, the time for a stick of incense is over, let's stop. Glancing at the completely burned out incense, Sun Sizheng said loudly.

If you don't stop making tea and continue to brew tea, you will directly judge that you have failed the assessment, but the gains outweigh the losses.
