Shi Xin stopped speculating, put away the handkerchief closely, and left the broken temple.

Shi Xin returned to the Lingbao Sect, Lei Gang and Zhou Tai were still there, Chen Bing had already returned, plus Ge Xuan, the four of them sat around the round table, and no one spoke.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little solemn, Shi Xin asked, "What's wrong?"

Ge Xuan moved a stool and beckoned to Shi Xin: "Come and sit, we are waiting for you to come back." ”

Shi Xin sat down, "What's the matter?"

"Zhang Meiniang came to ...... just now"

"What!" Shi Xin's butt didn't sit hot, and immediately bounced it up again, "That stinky woman, it's really a grievance." ”

Chen Bing frowned and said, "Senior brother, can you be a little more gentle." ”

"Okay, that...... Oh, what is that woman doing here?"

Ge Xuan said: "Originally, because of what happened last time, she was ordered to retreat for a year by the top management of the Heavenly Master Sect. But she was released in advance, and we guess it has something to do with Zhou Tai's refusal to join the inner door. ”

Shi Xin heard Zhou Yu tell him what happened, and he vaguely felt that the Heavenly Master Sect released Zhang Meiniang in advance, with the intention of a few of them.

Sure enough, I only heard Ge Xuan say again: "Zhang Meiniang went straight to the Lingbao Sect as soon as she was released, she came to ask us something, do you dare to compete with her in the Heavenly Master Sect Master Contest in half a year." ”

The Heavenly Master's Pulse Master Contest is held every fifteen months, and both inner and outer disciples can participate. There is an age limit, and generally those under the age of 15 cannot participate. The big competition adopts a three-to-three method, only one game, and there is no chance if you eliminate it once.

"What's the matter with her? And we don't necessarily get to do it. ”

"Senior brother, you are too naïve. Isn't it easy for the Heavenly Master Sect to let us encounter something?" Chen Bing interjected.

"That's right...... Master, what do you mean by a duel?"

"If they win, Zhou Tai joins the inner gate of the Heavenly Master Sect and will never quit. If we win, the previous account is written off. ”

Shi Xin said with a cold face: "Last time, I said that as long as I reached the first class and the fifth level within a year, I would write it off, and now I will continue to write it off in another way, where can there be so many write-offs? ”

"No, we're going to participate, and we're going to win the championship. Ge Xuan shook his head and said, "Because the winner of the big competition has the opportunity to obtain the supreme internal strength of the Heavenly Master's teaching, the 'Taiping Heart Method'!"

Shi Xin's heart moved: It's the Taiping Mind Method again! Last time, Sun Ce also mentioned it, and it turned out to be the Internal Strength Mind Method. I thought he was going to steal or rob, but it turned out to be a big contest to win.

"Master, what does it mean to have a chance? Doesn't winning a battle necessarily give you a peaceful mind?"

"It's not that meaning, the meaning of having a chance is: Zhang Jiao will shake the dice himself, shake one to three, and the winner will have the corresponding number of opportunities to hear him personally describe the 'Taiping Heart Method'!"

"Why are you rolling the dice?" asked Shi Xin, frowning.

"This is the tradition of the Heavenly Master's Sect, and it has been stipulated since the beginning of the Sect. ”

Shi Xin's mouth pursed, "What kind of system is passed on, how much to shake is not the final word of Zhang Jiao." ”

Ge Xuan smiled and said, "No matter how many times he shakes his horns, we have Bing'er here, even if we only listen to it once, what's the matter? I heard that the Taiping Mind Method is only five or six hundred words, isn't it easy for Bing'er who has never forgotten?"

Everyone has agreed that now all that remains is to improve their abilities.

After a hurried farewell in the morning, Shi Xin hadn't checked Zhou Tai's information yet, and while everyone was discussing it hotly, he used his Tianyantong talent to check:

Pulse Master Grade: Second Class Zero Weight

Exclusive talents: Bloody Battle, Copper Skin and Iron Bone

Common Talents: Water Combat, Defense, Attack, Fist

Internal and external strength: Lei Gang heart method, Lei Gang fist method

Qualification: 83

Base Attributes: Defense, 83+3=86 (3 points increase by Lei Gang's Mental Method), Attack, 81+2=83 (2 points increase by Lei Gang's Fist Method);

Attributes: Water Fight, 85, Boxing, 80

Exclusive Talent Explained:

Bloody Battle: In a battle, the more scars Zhou Tai has, the more his attack power will rise, up to two percent

Copper Skin and Iron Bone: Zhou Tai is a first-class defense expert, so his defense is increased by 20% during combat, and his injuries generally do not cause permanent damage and do not leave scars

Shi Xin withdrew Tianyantong and had a more intuitive understanding of Zhou Tai: first of all, qualifications, 83 points are above average, 5 points lower than Chen Bing, but at least 3 points higher than himself, but this data can be improved in the future;

The most important thing is the exclusive talent, from Chen Bing, Shi Xin realized that talent and attributes almost determine the development direction of a pulse master. Looking back at Zhou Tai's first exclusive talent "Blood Battle", it is obvious that this is a talent that exchanges blood for blood, and the worse it is beaten, the higher the attack power. The "Blood War" talent perfectly explains the magical performance of the last time he played against Guan Hai.

Zhou Tai's second exclusive talent, "Copper Skin and Iron Bone", is actually to increase his defense, withstand fighting and maneuvering, and heal automatically without leaving scars.

Lei Gang's mental method is also explained: Lei Gang created himself, and his cultivation level is from first to second. Cultivation Restrictions: Must have a fist-type defensive vein weapon with a defense attribute greater than 70. Result: Defense is permanently increased by 3, and no talent is increased.

And Lei Gang's fist technique only increased by 2 points, which is already very good for low-level external skills.

Like the Lingbao Sutra, the Lei Gang Mind Method and the Lei Gang Fist Method belong to low-level mind methods and external skills, and are only suitable for the cultivation of low-level pulse masters.

To sum up, Zhou Tai is a close-quarters pulse master who focuses on defense, supplemented by attack, and is good at water warfare.

After Lei Gang and Zhou Tai left, Shi Xin and Chen Bing went back to their rooms to practice the Spirit Treasure Sutra. Although I don't know what the use of the additional 3-point Dao technique is, and even the "alchemy" talent brought by the Lingbao Sutra is relatively weak, but it is better than nothing.

Early the next morning, Shi Xin and Chen Bing visited the Li Mansion again. At this time, Wang Ke was already waiting in the square.

"If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, for the pulse master, cultivation is important, but it is also essential to enhance physical fitness. So, you have to start running today, just like my teacher said yesterday. There are other arrangements after the run, so let's go. Wang Ke gave an order, and the half-year training officially began.

Shi Xin was about to run away, but Wang Ke stopped him again. I saw that he took out two leggings from not far away, and each legging said ten catties, which is equivalent to about five catties in later generations, and a pair is ten catties.

"Tie this up. ”

Shi Xin's face changed, and he confirmed again, "Brother Wang, are you serious?"

Wang Ke's face was gloomy, "Master handed you over to me, I will naturally take it seriously and not joke with you." The legs are the power points of the whole body, long-distance running can make your breath more stable, and with the breathing method of the pulse master, you can maintain the stability of your moves in battle. So, are you going to run now, or are you going to give up?"

Only then did Shi Xin know the importance of running, gritted his teeth, made his leggings strong, and ran with his steps.

Chen Bing looked at Wang Ke silently, chose a pair of five-pound leggings from the ground, and ran out.

Wang Ke's mouth moved, probably wanting to say something, but finally held back again, only looking at Chen Bing's back and sighing secretly.

Chen Bing caught up with Shi Xin and whispered beside him: "Use your own strength to run first, and when you reach the limit, use your true qi to inject your legs to run." ”

Shi Xin was taken aback when he saw Chen Bing also running up, "Senior sister, why do you have to run too?"

"Didn't Brother Wang say that? The pulse master also needs leg strength and breath control, so I ran along. Let's try to compete. ”

In the first two laps, Shi Xin relied on the tempering of the body by drugs for nine months, and ran without delay. Entering the third circle, I gradually felt that my strength was a little exhausted, and my breath began to be messy. After two more laps like this, I felt that the weight of the leggings had increased more than ten times, and it became heavier and heavier. He held his breath, and the true qi at the dantian slowly poured into his legs, and sure enough, his body became light again. After boiling for two more laps like this, the true qi in the body was exhausted, and the strength was also used up, only to feel a feeling of emptiness coming. With no choice, he swallowed a Replenishing Yuan Pill, and his speed decreased lower and lower, and he could only rely on his slowly recovering True Qi to maintain his deformed posture.

Buyuan Dan, of course, is also Ge Xuan's masterpiece, refined with more than 20 kinds of precious medicinal materials. The effect is to speed up the accumulation of true qi, and there are no side effects, which is more suitable for Shi Xin's current situation than Kang Yuan Dan, which has a significant effect but is empty after use. Ge Xuan said that one Yuan Replenishing Pill could replenish all the true qi of a first-class full heavy pulse master, and if he knew that Shi Xin used it for running, he didn't know how to feel it.

Chen Bing followed closely, although Wang Ke did not ask for it, she also set a goal of ten laps. The girl is naturally delicate, although her pulse master level is only one weight different from Shi Xin, but the difference in physique and physical strength is too far. In the first three laps, she gritted her teeth and insisted that she could catch up with Shi Xin, and then fell behind. By the fifth lap, he was pale and staggering, apparently at his limit.

Wang Ke couldn't bear to watch Chen Bing suffer, so he caught up with her and said, "Little ...... Miss Chen, a girl's physical strength is not as good as that of a boy, not to mention that you are a control pulse master, why should you be more serious about everything?"

Chen Bing glanced at him, panting and taking out a replenishing pill, untying his leggings, and continuing to run hard.

Shi Xin's face turned blue, his mouth was bitter, his dantian was empty, and he was afraid that if he ran any longer, he would go into shock, but he still insisted. "There are still two laps, you can't give up, and you have to finish it even if you die!"

At this moment, there was a sudden coldness in his chest, and then, this coldness quickly spread throughout his body.

"What's going on?" Shi Xin only felt that the strength of his whole body was slowly recovering, and his completely paralyzed legs gradually became conscious.

"Could it be the Sun Moon Stone?" Shi Xin thought, and couldn't help but lower his head to look at his chest. Sure enough, the Sun Moon Stone ran out on its own without being summoned, emitting a faint purple light in a flash. The purple light gradually spread around his body, enveloping Shi Xin's whole body in a faint layer of purple light.

"Oops, I was careless. I forgot that there was a sun and moon stone. Shi Xin patted his head, "When I opened the pulse two days ago, I knew that the Sun Moon Stone would regain its strength and true qi, but I didn't expect it to run out in extreme circumstances. It seems that the Sun and Moon Stone can not only recover, but also repair the wounds of the body. ”
