Chapter 14: The First Examination
On the day of the assessment of the Wai Dan Hall, the outer gate of the Qingyun Sect can really be said to be beating gongs and drums, and the cheers shook the sky.
The genius is bright, and the Zongmen Square, which has been temporarily transformed into an assessment site, is already full of people, and it has long been occupied by countless disciples.
Being able to join the Waidantang and become a respected alchemist is an opportunity for many people to change their fate!
Qualified to have the opportunity to enter the Qingyun Sect from a mortal to cultivate immortals, these disciples can be said to be the dragon and phoenix among the people in their respective states and counties.
There are really few people who think that they must be worse than others - the worse may be the qualifications and family background, but I may be a genius with a comprehension that is unique in ten thousand!
A lot of people think something similar.
Even if the chances of joining the Waidantang were slim, they all wanted to give it a try.
What if it happens?
Isn't that just a move, one step to the sky!
Therefore, it can be said that there are not many people who come today.
There are more than 10,000 disciples in the Qi refining period in the entire outer gate, and among these more than 10,000 people, there are three or four thousand disciples in the early stage of Qi refining.
And these three or four thousand people, except for a very few disciples who did not participate, the remaining more than three thousand people, almost all of them participated in this assessment!
Ye Chen was a member of the crowd at this time, but he didn't come with Li Meng today.
It's because Li Meng didn't come at all today - this benevolent brother doesn't seem to be interested in alchemy.
In addition to these contestants, there were also many other disciples in the middle and late stages of Qi refining who came to watch, maybe they were joining in the fun, or maybe for other reasons, but no matter what, the atmosphere on the field had already become hot.
There are also many disciples around who claim to be brothers and sisters and begin to test and share their "assessment cheats" with each other, and many of them have really bought the "secret books" sold by those senior brothers......
Ye Chen only felt that with the purity of these people, he stayed in the sinister immortal cultivation world like this, but he was afraid that he would be sold one day and he couldn't even count the money......
He could only choose a place to sit silently next to him, took a book and flipped through it carefully.
This is the "Spirit Grass Compendium", after he completed the task yesterday, it took a full ten contribution points to redeem it from the second floor of the Library Pavilion.
The pages are particularly new, and the font should be printed with movable type, but I don't know if it's produced by Qingyunzong itself.
It records more than 200 kinds of relatively common low-level spirit grasses near Qingyun Sect, which is not particularly detailed, but the content entries are also quite cumbersome, for Ye Chen, who has limited knowledge of spirit grass, it is completely like a real "cheats".
After getting this book, he regretted it a little, he knew that this kind of book on the second floor was so valuable, even if he owed a favor, he should go to Li Meng to see if he could borrow one!
The night before the assessment, it was only enough for him to read the book that was not too thick and recite part of it briefly, but this was already the limit.
If you were an ordinary person, you would probably only be able to read it once, and you would forget all the content in one night.
Cultivation, at least the cultivation of the first and second levels of qi refining, is more to improve the body and spirit of the monk, and transform the body and spirit into a state that can absorb and operate aura.
But for things like memory, the help is really limited.
Ye Chen's own memory is quite good, and after crossing over, he has been strengthened to a certain extent for some reason, but he has learned the words of this world by himself in half a year.
You must know that when he first crossed, he was a peasant child in the countryside, and he was outright illiterate.
After cultivating immortals, this memory has not increased much, but compared to other qi refining disciples, it is still much stronger.
At this time, the assessment had not yet begun, but Ye Chen was happy to temporarily cram, and hurriedly memorized an endorsement.
If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if, what if the assessment content really has Lingcao knowledge?
Take 10,000 steps back and say, the content in this book is a must-read for him who has a farm and aspires to alchemy, and it definitely doesn't hurt to memorize it at this time.
……
At noon, a foundation building uncle who was in charge of managing the assessment and a group of white-robed inner disciples came to visit.
"Silence!"
A low drink that fused with mana directly made the thousands of Qi Refining disciples in the audience quiet down as if they were being heard by a bell.
Ye Chen only felt that his head was buzzing, as if someone was beating a big drum in his ear just now, but this feeling came and went quickly, and it quickly returned to normal.
Uncle Zhuji seemed to be very satisfied with his methods, clapped his hands, and dozens of inner disciples around him took a step forward and began to set up a venue in the open space that had been deliberately flowed out on the side.
Ye Chen keenly noticed that the clothes of these inner disciples were different from those inner disciples in the Contribution Hall.
Although they are all white robes, the emblem embroidered on the chest and the hem pattern on the sleeves are different.
Their emblems are green bottles one by one, and the lines on their clothes have a more leafy feel.
While the inner disciples were arranging the venue, Uncle Zhuji didn't know what spell he used, his mouth opened and closed slightly, but his voice spread throughout the square like Huang Zhong Dalu.
"Those who decide to participate in the assessment will stand in the square, and no one will leave the square at least one kilometer away!"
The disciples obediently complied, and soon, the two groups were clearly separated by a distance.
"Taking advantage of the time to set up the examination room, let's conduct the first assessment."
When this sentence fell, everyone in the square was in unison, and they all cheered up.
I saw that Uncle Shi took out a scroll-shaped magic weapon and threw it into the air, and in the next moment, the scroll floated in the air and completely opened, and countless colorful lights overflowed from the scroll.
In an instant, a colorful light curtain was formed in the air, and gilded characters began to appear on the light curtain.
"This is a 10,000-character diagram of the best magic weapon, which records an anonymous article with more than 10,000 words."
I don't know the origin of this article, the content of the book is quite ethereal, and I don't know the actual meaning of its words, and no one has cracked it for thousands of years...... Today's first test is for you to memorize and memorize the contents of this book. ”
"In two hours, the content of the whole article will be broadcast twice in total, and you can remember as much as you can count these two times, and then you will write silently, and according to the amount and accuracy of the content of the dictation, the first five hundred people will enter the next assessment."
"You are not allowed to make any written records when reciting, you can only recite from memory, and you can't cheat, otherwise I will personally expel the cheater from the sect!"
"Remember, there are only two opportunities in two hours in total, so cherish them!"
Memorizing an article?
As soon as these words came out, some of the disciples in the audience were happy and some were sad.
Ye Chen was slightly stunned, and then ecstatic in his heart.
It's not that he's proud, as I said before, his memory is definitely not worth anyone on the field.
Not to mention that he had experienced a certain compulsory education in his previous life, and his recitation ability far exceeded that of ordinary people in this world!
This first assessment, he can definitely win it!
Soon, the words on the scroll began to move slowly.
Ye Chen calmed down and began to recite seriously.
For a while, there was silence on the field, and all the disciples began to recite.
