Chapter 14: What is Practice?
"You!" the young man raised his eyebrows, looking at Mu Bai's indifferent appearance, as if he was deliberately mocking him, and suddenly his heart was full of anger.
However, he didn't show it, just smiled contemptuously, and said, "I wish you a smooth assessment of your intelligence, and I hope that you will not be too embarrassed in the end, so as not to damage your reputation as a king." ”
"Thank you. Mu Bai smiled lightly, and his face did not rise or fall at all.
Such words could not stir up any waves in his heart at all. Years of life as a waste man have made him see through the warmth and coldness of human feelings.
Now that Mu Bai is in the limelight, I don't know how many people want to step on his name and become a person who is in the limelight.
The boy in front of him is the first, and he will never be the last.
"Gongziyu, I remember you. The boy stretched out his hand, a wicked smile on his lips.
He reported himself to the door of his home, and immediately attracted the attention of others. They were already paying attention to Mu Bai, and when they saw people looking for battle, they became even more lively.
"Gongzi Yu, could it be that scholar Gongzi Yu, who has won the talent assessment list four times in a row?" someone recognized.
This young man is a middle-level disciple of the academy, and he has been second in intelligence four times in a row, and each time he has passed by the champion, which is regrettable.
He was able to stand here, which had already proved that his cultivation was profound, and with a good set of skins that he was born with, Gongzi Yu was already considered a man of the hour among the middle-level disciples, and his light was scorching.
Gongzi Yu is ambitious and unwilling to be trapped among middle-level disciples. He provoked Mu Bai so much in order to use Mu Bai's power to fulfill himself, and in one fell swoop he became a genius in the population of Tiandu City.
It is also a supreme honor to be able to wait for the recognition of the Holy City of the Terran Race.
When he was still fantasizing about the future, Mu Bai had already turned around and sat down beside the bookcase, and in between, he hadn't even looked at him.
Gongzi Yu's hand hung alone in the air, trembling slightly, and he stopped for half a breath before he was embarrassed to retract, he looked at Mu Bai's eyes were already not good, and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth.
"You are too arrogant and domineering! The intelligence assessment does not rely on brute force, let's see, the young king. ”
With that, Gongzi Yu walked away with his head held high, returned to his bookcase and sat down seriously. For this talent assessment, he has made all preparations.
The name of the champion, his son Yu is going to be decided.
Mu Bai's face has not changed from beginning to end, his heart is like still water, and the ridicule of these students is difficult to disturb him.
After a brief interlude, an old man slowly stepped into the ring. The martial arts arena of Nuoda suddenly became silent, and no one spoke anymore, and everyone understood the order here.
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on him. The old man stood up and said lightly, "Xuanyuan Academy, talent assessment, start." ”
"The question of this year's exam is what is cultivation. With that, the three pillars of ancient incense were placed in the air, and wisps of smoke rose up.
The candidates were all stunned when they heard this, looked at each other, and there was astonishment in their eyes. How can it be such a simple topic, the first lecture given by every student is what cultivation is.
The candidates began to write one after another, they were all winners of Zongwu, and they could naturally be said to be proficient in cultivation.
Mu Bai's eyes flickered, and the corners of his mouth raised a faint smile. He didn't start writing immediately, but said to himself, "What is cultivation? ”
Gongziyu heard the exam questions calmly, as if he was completely sure. He has his own unique views on the practice of the Tao.
Gongzi Yu glanced at Mu Bai, and saw that he was still holding the pen and pondering, and suddenly sneered in his heart, "A waste person who doesn't know how to practice, I see how you come to talk about the scriptures and the Tao, and wait to be embarrassed." ”
The incense burns shortened, and the rustling sound echoed in the venue. Hundreds of young talents started to write together and answered seriously, which was not a pleasure for the visitors.
After a long time, a "bang" sound disrupted the rhythm. Gongzi Yudi put down the pen and ink in his hand and looked very relaxed.
"It's the first one to stop writing, and to see how smoothly he answers, this time he should be able to take the name of the champion. The audience outside the arena whispered. Whether Gongziyu can win the championship has also become the focus of some people's attention.
Gongzi Yu turned his gaze to look at Mu Bai, with a somewhat provocative smile on his face, as if he was saying, "It's ridiculous that a waste person still comes to write about Taoism and cultivation." ”
Gradually, more and more students put down their pens with smiles on their faces. Such a topic is really too simple for them.
The incense was about to run out, and Mu Bai finally put down the pen and ink in his hand. His arms flared and his bones crackled, as if he had accomplished a feat.
Feeling Gongziyu's gaze, he turned his head and smiled slightly, and then stopped responding.
Finally, when the incense burned out, the old man stood up, and two light winds rolled out of his sleeves, and all the examination papers were taken away in an instant, without delay.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn't leave.
The talent assessment of Xuanyuan Academy is reviewed on the spot, which is extremely efficient, in order to prevent students from being dissatisfied and allowing them to debate on the spot.
This part of the debate is the most important part of the assessment.
"Mu Bai, our young king, how do you feel when you hear that you are peerless in flesh?" Gongzi Yu opened his mouth in the air, and the targeting and ridicule in it were undoubtedly revealed.
Suddenly, many people looked over. After being reminded by Gongzi Yu, everyone remembered that Mu Bai could not practice. In the past few days, Mu Bai has been pushing his opponent sideways, and he has almost forgotten the fact that he is a mortal.
Feeling the unkind eyes around him, Mu Bai raised his head, his face as calm as ever.
"No matter how high your cultivation is, isn't it also a defeated general?" he said coldly, and at the same time, his eyes swept over the gloating crowd, making them shudder and subconsciously lower their heads.
"What, if you want to fight with me, you have defeated a few beginner-level imps, do you really think that you have no opponent?" Gongzi Yu smiled disdainfully, and immediately released a surging coercion. made the book case tremble, and there were cracks in the inch, and the strength can be seen.
"Seeing that you are excited, if your answer is smooth, then I wish Brother Yu to win the champion this time. Mu Bai responded with his hand and uncovered the scar of Gongzi Yu Wannian's second child, which immediately made him very embarrassed and unstable.
The dragon elephant in Mu Bai's body roared in unison, rolling with the coercion, and the momentum did not fall in the slightest. The crowd of onlookers cheered and cheered, looking forward to a cross-step battle.
Gongzi Yu stepped forward, his momentum climbed, and he was already shining with a little bit of Yuan Power, and he was almost about to make a move. At this time, Mu Bai sat down suddenly, and all his breath was in his body.
Gongzi Yu's coercion fell in the air, which suddenly made him stagger, and he was a little embarrassed.
"Brother Yu, you are angry, beware of flashing your body. Mu Bai teased, and a harmless smile appeared on his face. Gongzi Yu was furious, but he had to suppress his anger, snorted angrily at Mu Bai, and sat down.
"Quietly, read out the top three results. ”
