Everyone came to the outer gate martial arts arena, and the more than 100 people who applied for the exam to skip the grade were led to a venue that had already been arranged.

There were six rings with protective circles in place, and some people were already waiting there.

The team leader, who briefed everyone along the way, continued:

"Ladies and gentlemen, you need to defeat a mid-stage Jindan monk here before you can continue with the later assessments.

If you fail, you can choose to leave there, or you can take the final exam of the outer disciples instead.

The rules of this competition are that you can take the initiative to admit defeat, and it is forbidden to kill the opponent or cut off his path, and now you will start to compete on the stage in order. ”

Jin Ziming watched a few rounds of battles and found that the newcomers performed well, and more than 30% of the cross-level challenges were successful.

Finally it was his turn to play, remembering the conversation with Liu Yangjun, if it was too amazing, the headquarters might not let the Landu branch interfere in his assignment.

He honestly performed the "Basic Knife Technique", and then changed it to the "Light Splitting Knife Technique", until the opponent's physical strength and vitality were almost consumed, and then he used the "rising tide" that he had just learned to merge into the "Kun Momentum", shaking the opponent out and falling to the ground unable to stand.

More than two hours later, the competition was over, and a total of 45 candidates passed the test.

They were incorporated into the Jindan candidates for the inner door test and began to continue the assessment according to the ordinary process.

Before parting, the team leader said:

"There are still eight passes in the follow-up, if you don't pass any of them, you will be eliminated, and the outer disciples will lead you out of the sect, good luck to everyone!"

The first level was a group interview, and he and nine other people were in a group and walked into a room.

When he sat down, he found that the test was conducted by three young monks, and each of them had a score chart on their table with the names of ten people written on it, and the one in the center gave the proposition:

"Now you are a small team, and you need to work together to win a project for the sect.

Our Lingyun faction sometimes sells mining equipment alone, and sometimes it supplies and mines at the same time.

Now the first-level upper sect of the sect, Juxingmen, has discovered a high-level spirit ore vein somewhere in Dongwuzhou, and all the second-level sects under the Juxingmen can participate in the bidding to compete for the right to supply mining machines and the right to mine mining, and in the end, only one will win.

In addition to the Lingyun Sect this time, there are also Changyuan Sect, Huaxing Sect and Wanquan Valley, although they do not produce mining machines, they can act as agents for the equipment of other sects to participate in this project.

The situation of each sect, their relationship with the decision-making level of the Gathering Star Sect, and the advantages and disadvantages of their respective equipment and mining capacity are written on these pages before you.

After reading it, if you have any questions, you can ask us at any time, as long as it is within the rules, we will answer truthfully.

I ask you to elect a team leader as soon as possible, and he will divide the labor, and within an hour, everyone will work closely together to finally output the plan to win this project, let's start now! ”

After listening to this person's speech, most people, including Jin Ziming, showed a confused look, what the hell is this?

"I'm here to learn the True Cultivation Method, how do you feel that the Lingyun Sect is testing my business quality?"

But three out of ten people either knew about this test in advance, or they did have business talent, and immediately reacted and began to lobby the people around them to compete for the position of team leader.

When they recruit team members, they introduce their ideas and listen to each other's suggestions.

But there is also a benevolent brother who is a cold bystander, with undisguised disdain on his face, silently watching these "beam-jumping clowns" blowing nonsense there, looking extremely noble and arrogant.

Jin Ziming remembered Mu Yan's reminder that even if he is not the team leader, he must be actively involved and must not be treated indifferently.

He has always been a person who knows the times, although he doesn't like "fake positive", but when he is under the roof, he must recognize the situation.

So I cheered up and chose to support a guy who seemed to be very shrewd.

This person has already developed two team members, and when Jin Ziming joins, the four of them will start to analyze and plan together, and Jin Ziming has also put forward some constructive suggestions.

The other two candidates won two and one supporter respectively, and in the end, everyone voted, and the person supported by Jin Ziming successfully became the leader of the group, while Brother Qing Gao abstained from voting.

The nine quickly integrated the best of the three sets of plans and began to write.

Their thinking is also clear, starting with an overview of the project, followed by an analysis of their strengths and weaknesses in terms of equipment, mining, after-sales and relationships with their competitors.

According to the gap between the goal and the reality, the main problems were identified, and then in response to these problems, the strategy and action plan were output, and everyone worked together to complete the whole set of plans before the deadline.

The examiner took it, watched it with the other two, and then commented on their plans and personal performances, and then let everyone go out and wait.

It didn't take long for the results to come out, and not surprisingly, Brother Qing Gao was eliminated.

He was not annoyed, his eyes were firm, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and with an expression of not being in the same stream as you, he proudly walked to the side, and was taken out of the mountain gate with another remorseful person who failed to pass the test because he contributed too little.

Next is the test level of martial arts, divine soul and comprehension, Jin Ziming keeps his promise to the second elder, and is always tepid, maintaining a slightly above average level.

The fifth level, the test of physical attributes, is almost the same as before, but the instruments are more sophisticated.

The sixth level is the loyalty test, which has two purposes, one is to prevent people from hostile forces from infiltrating, and the other is to see your own sense of belonging to the sect, and whether you have the determination to live and die together in times of difficulty.

When it was Jin Ziming's turn, an elder asked:

"What is your purpose in joining the Lingyun Sect?"

"I want to be stronger, but I don't have the exercises." Jin Ziming told the truth.

"Are you or your family involved in the hostile forces of the Lingyun Faction?"

"Nope."

"Well, now that you step into the formation in front of you, it won't record what you're thinking, but it will judge whether you're qualified or not."

Jin Ziming walked into that phantom array as he said, and the moment he entered, he lost himself.

From the beginning of his memory, all the trials and battles he experienced, the hesitation and hesitation, the resistance and the determination, all flashed one by one until the day he came to take the final exam.

The formation pushed him out, and at the same time, a green pillar of light lit up in the formation, indicating that he had passed the test.

The seventh level is a psychological test, and it is all written test questions, Jin Ziming took a look at the questions, and basically asked you how you would choose in different situations.

He kept in mind Mu Yan's advice and always answered the questions with an optimistic and motivated attitude, of course, this is also his true thoughts.

When he was about to finish answering, he realized that the order and design of the questions were elaborate and interlocking, and if you lie in one place, you need to keep deceiving, but then it is easy to show your feet.

Jin Ziming couldn't help but secretly rejoice, fortunately he was really an optimistic and positive young monk, there was no suspense, and he passed this level smoothly.

The last pass is the interview of the elders of the inner gate, and sitting opposite is a Taoist with a goatee, his eyes are as sharp as a knife, and his momentum is aggressive, which makes people feel a sense of oppression, Jin Ziming estimates that he should be a real person.

"Jin Ziming, I have read your information and your previous tests, and among the people who skipped the grade, it is a slightly above average grade.

However, according to the old instinct, you should have reservations, yes, it's all now, and you know to leave some leeway for yourself not to expose your full strength. ”

"The elder has won the award, what is your surname?"

"My surname is Zhen, you don't have to be close to me, I'll just ask you a few questions."

"Okay."

"If you join the Lingyun Sect and want to stand out from so many talents, what advantages do you think you can help you?"

"I like to think, I dare to try my own ideas, and I can endure hardship."

Jin Ziming thought for a moment and replied.

"And what do you think will limit your development here?"

"To be honest, along the way, I lacked the guidance of authentic exercises and famous teachers, and most of the time I relied on my own speculation to cultivate.

What worries me the most is that my previous path has gone astray or narrowed, which will limit my future development space. ”

"Then I'm going to ask some questions about spiritual practice. You tell me, why did the monk introduce the aura into the lower dantian storage during the qi refining period? ”

"Because after the aura enters the body, if it is not gathered and stored, it will move around in the body, causing a lot of discomfort.

The lower dantian is in the central position of the human body, and when it needs the support of vitality, it transports the vitality through the meridians, which is relatively convenient.

Of course, only after the current dantian stores enough spiritual energy, it is possible to lay the foundation for subsequent cultivation and improvement.

In addition, gathering aura in one place, similar to the principle of gathering power in one place, is itself conducive to the rapid accumulation of vitality at a single point, as well as a strong outburst. ”

"Assuming that the point just now is wrong, the correct cultivation method is that the inhaled spiritual energy should not be stored in the lower dantian, but should be released into the acupoints of the whole body.

Tell me, why should I cultivate like this? ”

Jin Ziming was stunned for a moment, how could this person be the same as the second elder of the Blue Capital City, he liked to look at problems from both positive and negative aspects, could it be that the people of the Lingyun faction were all in this style?

Jin Ziming had never thought about this strange question, and even though he fell into deep thought, considering that this was an interview, he could only sort out his thoughts as soon as possible and answered:

"If all the aura is stored in the lower dantian and there is only one pool, then the total amount of aura that can be accumulated is relatively small.

Every time the vitality support is needed, it has to be transported from the lower dantian, which is very inefficient.

If all the acupuncture points in the body are dantian, which can be accumulated everywhere, and can directly absorb the aura from the outside and deliver it to the hands, feet, or blades, then the speed or efficiency is obviously higher.

Therefore, a person who has cultivated all the acupuncture points into a dantian can store more aura and achieve greater achievements in the future than a person who only has a lower dantian. ”

"But in reality, no one has practiced in this way to a high level.

And the following dantian is the gathering point of the successful monks all over the place, why do you believe that what you say is right? ”

Lao Dao questioned.
