Chapter 52: The First Examination

Jiang Ze returned to the courtyard and saw two lacquered wooden boxes, one large and one small, in the small hall.

When I opened the big one, it was full of spirit stones, and a local tyrant's breath came to my face.

Is this what it's like to get rich? Jiang Ze fluttered.

Immediately opened the small box, and a transparent jade pendant lay quietly on the brocade.

The jade pendant was engraved with the words 'Bi Wufeng Yantian', and Jiang Ze didn't understand its use.

Xiao Yi heard the sound, so he walked over, and saw Jiang Ze drooling over the big wooden box with a look of wealth on his face, and said angrily: "Why, I haven't seen so many spirit stones?"

"That's nature! Previously, a spirit stone had to be broken into two pieces, and I was afraid of living in poverty. Jiang Ze smirked.

Xiao Yidai raised her eyebrows lightly: "This is all a small fight, Sister Linli's income in the past is much more than this~!"

This little maid didn't give herself face at all, Jiang Ze said angrily: "Of course! What kind of family are people, what kind of family are we? Don't be too comparative, be yourself in a down-to-earth manner!"

Seeing Jiang Ze carefully looking at the jade pendant in his hand, Xiao Yi introduced to him: "This is the spiritual jade that records the points of the sect, and you can go to the Beacon Pavilion at any time to exchange for the items you need." ”

Hearing this, Jiang Ze carefully put away the jade pendant and pushed the big box to Xiao Yi: "You can keep these spirit stones first, use them at will, and don't leave your own cultivation." ”

"Then what's going on!" Xiao Yiqiao's face flushed, "You better keep it for yourself, you will have to participate in the inner door qualifying competition in two months, if you still cultivate like this, you can't dodge this fight!"

"It's okay, if you really want to be beaten, it's not bad," Jiang Ze rubbed her little head, "And I plan to go to the first-grade carving master in the next two days, and I can also make a difference then." ”

Xiao Yi shrank her head, but still didn't escape his clutches.

Jiang Ze laughed and slipped away.

It is rare to return to a peaceful life, Jiang Ze listened to the scriptures during the day, practiced the exercises, and practiced carving at night, and the boy's day was very comfortable.

Until this day, Jiang Ze practiced the Xuanyang Four Swords in the field, only to feel that the true qi in the dantian was full, and there were faint signs of breaking through.

Jiang Ze hurriedly retracted the exercises, and the true qi had accumulated to the point where it was overflowing, but now the time to break through was not appropriate.

In his heart, he calculated that the primary spirit array had reached a bottleneck, and it could no longer be qualitatively improved.

The Formation Master Tower only organizes an assessment every three months, and the calculation date will be tomorrow.

First, the carving master has been assessed, and the second-order formation method is learned to repair the refraction, and then the third-order of the military realm is broken through and the path of weapon cultivation begins!

Thinking of this, Jiang Ze decided not to practice the exercises for the time being, and adjusted his state to deal with tomorrow's assessment.

Insert the refractive light back into the scabbard and go to the study.

In the study, Jiang Ze was like a spirit snake swimming under the needle, the tip of the needle was smooth and smooth, and in a moment, a pair of primary spirit arrays jumped on the paper.

Although the primary spirit array was already familiar with the heart, and he could fully engrave it with his eyes closed, he could only use the regular formation during the assessment, and he had to return to practice the regular primary spirit array.

Pick up the kraft paper and check it in the sun, the subtleties are slightly insufficient, although it is harmless, but it is better if it can be perfected.

Jiang Ze also has an understanding of the assessment process.

In the first stage, choose the formation you are good at, and there are only five chances, and you can successfully engrave a pair to pass the first stage test.

In the second stage, the Inspector Elder randomly selected a formation that was not commonly used, and had a time limit of two hours to familiarize himself with it, and then inscribed it on the spot.

It sounds mysterious, almost impossible to accomplish. But the judgment is not based on the success of the inscription, only by the degree of completion of the formation.

--- 40 percent is qualified.

--- 60 percent is good.

Eighty percent --- is excellent.

If you can master an unknown formation in two hours and successfully engrave a formation pattern, it is really rare, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a genius.

The third stage is the selection of karma masters, and the apprentices are selected by the veteran formationists of the formation master tower.

Although the assessment of the second stage sounds a little unfair, if there is a carving master who spares no expense to support the big family, and learns all the formations and then comes to the assessment, wouldn't it be nine out of ten?

Or, take the test ten times and hundreds of times, and turn over and over those few formations, there is always a chance to encounter the same.

In fact, if it is a carved master trained by the family, it is only a matter of time before he passes the first-order carving master assessment.

If you take the exam ten times and 100 times, even if you pass the second stage, the third stage of the selection of teachers will end up in an embarrassing scene that no one wants.

There was Master Duan who said hello, Jiang Ze was not worried about the third stage, the difficult stage was the second stage, he had only learned a primary Yunling Array, and it took several days to master.

If the other formations are fundamentally different in terms of the inscription rules, then the second stage will not be so easy to pass.

If you don't pass the second stage, how can you talk about the third stage?

Jiang Ze also considered directly exchanging sect points for intermediate spirit array drawings, and after asking, he learned that he actually wanted a thousand sect points!

I thought that three hundred points was a lot of money, but I didn't expect that even an intermediate spirit array was far from enough.

Three hundred points is just a small mountain, one mountain is higher than the other, over this mountain, there are even higher mountains!

Let's take one step at a time.

Shaking his head and shaking off the cluttered thoughts in his mind, Jiang Ze calmed down and continued to hone his carving skills.

The next day, Jiang Ze was ready to go and rushed to the Zhenshui Peak Formation Tower.

Different from the noisy Taurus Peak, Zhenshui Peak is quiet and quiet, and the architecture is also very elegant.

The mountains are covered with all kinds of rare flowers and trees, pavilions, pavilions, and water gardens dotted among the mountains, which can be described as the fragrance of birds and flowers, and the air is exceptionally fresh, and it is refreshing to take a deep breath.

The tallest building in the mountain is no more than the antique array tower, the shape is like the exquisite pagoda, about more than 30 zhang, and the thirteen-story tower decreases step by step.

From time to time, a disciple walked by, looking anxious or confident, and he was expected to come to participate in the assessment.

Jiang Ze took a deep breath and walked up the stairs into the Formation Tower.

The space on the first floor of the tower is very wide, and more than 300 bookcases are arranged in the middle.

The assessment will start at the end of the day, and it is too early, and the disciples will communicate in whispers on the side, waiting for the lottery.

The Inspector Elder had a childish face, dressed in a plain white robe, and closed his eyes in front of the main table.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the elder waved his hand and ordered the disciple to ring the bell chime, closing the door on the first floor, leaving only the staircase leading to the second floor.

"The disciples who are wrong don't have to be put in, they don't even follow this rule, what kind of carving master is they going to test?!" the Inspector said lightly, his silver-white hair fluttering without wind and without anger.

Seeing this, the surrounding disciples immediately fell silent, and their attitudes became a little more restrained.

"Line up and draw lots in turn!"

Hearing this, all the disciples immediately divided into two teams and conducted the lottery in an orderly manner, and the Elder Inspector nodded slightly.

Jiang Ze drew the number two hundred and twenty and followed the guidance to find his position.

The bookcase is very simple, with five palm-sized square forged steel sheets and three carved needles.

Jiang Ze touched the forged steel sheet and started to cool and lubricate, which is said to be a special formation base used to practice carving on weekdays, which is similar to the material of ordinary embryos.

This small piece of forged steel sheet seems to be cheap, but if you switch to this special practice formation base, it will be a huge expense to go down to thousands of sheets.

The disciples took their seats one after another, and the first stage of the audition was not named, only as the threshold for the entrance examination.

Seeing that all the disciples were seated, the Inspector Elder announced aloud.

"The rules for the first stage of assessment are as follows: one hour for a limited time, choose your own formation, and you can enter the next round with five cards!"

"It is strictly forbidden to talk to each other during the assessment, and violators should be dealt with according to the rules!"

"Next, the assessment begins!!"

As soon as the order was given, I saw the carved needles in the hands of the disciples in the field emerging one after another, like the stars shining brightly.

These disciples are the hope of the Formation Master Tower, the pillars of the future.

And the beams and pillars of the Formation Master Tower are the pillars of the sect!

Seeing this scene, the Inspector Elder stroked his long beard and nodded, as if he saw the prosperity of the sect in the near future.

Jiang Ze was lucky to lift the needle, and the tip of the needle swiped randomly on the forged steel sheet.

The Inspector Elder caught a glimpse of this scene, and his heart skipped a beat, and he almost pulled his beard off.

Is this kid here to make trouble?!" The elder looked stunned, and he wanted to step forward and pick him up on the spot and throw him out of the tower.

In fact, it was no wonder that Jiang Ze was far less familiar with the conventional Yunling Array than he was with the self-created Yunling Array, and it was the first time he had moved a needle on this kind of forged steel sheet.

Jiang Ze had to waste a section of steel sheets to find the feel, after all, the materials of kraft paper and section steel sheets are very different.

Half an hour passed, and Jiang Ze was still scribbling there.

It's child's play! It's a blasphemy against the division's tower!

Seeing this, the inspector was angry, and secretly calculated in his heart that he would set a threshold for the first stage of assessment in the future, and he would not be able to intervene any bastard.

The good mood also became chaotic, and the elder stared intently at this bastard boy, as long as the bell chime rang, he would drive this hateful boy out!
