Chapter 33: I'm just making a slight move, and I'm already at the limit of this stage.
On the fifth day of the lunar month, early in the morning.
Xu Ke got up to wash, fed some spiritual rice to the purple lark, and then joined Fang Zheng Liu Yongtian and went to have breakfast together.
This house is a hall set up by the Sinong Palace, which is used to accommodate customers from all walks of life who come to the Sinong Palace to do business and need accommodation, which can be regarded as a "guest house" of the Sinong Palace.
At this moment, in this guild hall, except for a few merchants who came to buy, the others were Fang Zheng from various squares and disciples who participated in the promotion assessment.
When Liu Yongtian walked into the dining hall with Xu Ke, he met an acquaintance.
This is the square of Xishanfang next door.
"Huh? Lao Liu? ”
Xishanfang saw Liu Yongtian and asked with a surprised face, "You haven't gone back yet?" ”
"Nope!"
Liu Yongtian replied lightly, and then stretched out his finger and pointed at Xu Ke, "Isn't there a kid in the workshop who wants to participate in the promotion assessment?" I can't get out yet, so I can only wait for him to finish the assessment before leaving. ”
"Huh? There are also people in Hedongfang who have participated in the promotion assessment? ”
Xishanfang couldn't help but exclaim.
It's no wonder that he exclaimed, the name of the "pension workshop" in Hedongfang has long been known.
Xishanfang exclaimed, which also made the other people in the canteen look at it in surprise one by one.
Pull down the rotten Hedongfang, can also produce a disciple who is promoted and assessed?
What's so ...... Can salted fish also turn over?
Seeing everyone's gaze like this, the corners of Xu Ke's mouth trembled slightly, and his heart was a little awkward.
The name of our Hedongfang is really well-known.
In fact, Hedongfang has become like this, and it is no wonder that Fang Zheng Liu Yongtian.
I don't know what Si Nong Dian thinks about, all those "senior brothers" are arranged in Hedongfang, and only after the senior brothers return to their hometowns will the places be vacated to arrange new disciples.
As a result, there are piles of "senior brothers" in Hedongfang, and there are very few newcomers, making Hedongfang a veritable pension workshop. The entire Hedongfang has become twilight, and there has been no disciple who has participated in the promotion assessment for many years.
Therefore, even if there was such a promoted disciple as Xu Ke, the others didn't take it to heart.
Hedongfang is rotten like that, even if he can produce a promoted disciple, how much ability does he have? I'm afraid that it is a breakthrough in cultivation, and in order to take care of Hedongfang, Sinong Hall gave him a chance to participate in the promotion assessment without investigating it in detail.
After breakfast, everyone left the hall one after another, and the Si Nong Hall in front of them took the merit test to participate in the promotion assessment.
Xu Ke paid attention to it, and there were forty or fifty disciples in this batch of disciples who participated in the promotion assessment. I don't know if there is a quota for the promotion assessment of Sinong Palace, if there is a quota limit, the competition will be fierce.
There was nothing to say all the way, and everyone hurried to the Si Nong Hall to test the meritorious division.
came to the Examination Division again, and this time it was not Zhang Lingfeng who came forward, but a deacon.
Originally, on such an important occasion, it was necessary for the meritorious service department to "take care of everything". I don't know why, this year's merit test department "took care of everything" and didn't show up at all.
"Meet Deacon Wang!"
After the deacon in a cyan robe appeared, everyone hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"No need to be polite!"
The deacon Wang bowed back to everyone very strictly, and then said, "Ladies and gentlemen, please rest in the tea room." Dear disciples who participated in the assessment, come with me! ”
"Yes!"
The people bowed down and received the commandment.
Afterwards, the Fang Zheng went to the tea room to rest, and the disciples who participated in the assessment followed the deacon to the assessment site.
Xu Ke handed over the purple lark parked on his shoulder to Fang Zheng Liu Yongtian for temporary management, and followed everyone into the "examination room".
The examination room for this promotion assessment was set up in the garden in the backyard of the examination division.
Entering the garden, there were two long cases on the ground in front of them, and Deacon Wang and another white-haired old man just now were sitting on the futon behind the long case.
On the sides of the two of them, there were four desk tables each, and a total of eight serving disciples who acted as "staff" sat behind the desks.
On the lawn in the middle of the garden, there are also futons. These futons are the seats of the disciples who participated in the assessment.
Entering the examination room, under the command of one of the deacons disciples, everyone sat down in their respective positions.
This assessment seems to be presided over by Deacon Wang, and the white-haired old man sitting next to him has been closing his eyes and recuperating, without any action.
With the sound of "dang", the assessment began.
"The promotion assessment requirements for the disciples of the Si Nong Palace: the fourth-level cultivation of Qi training, proficient in the Triggering Technique, the Corruption Technique, the Rainfall Technique, and the Sharp Technique."
Deacon Wang glanced at the disciples sitting upright below and said, "Qi cultivation is clear at a glance, and there is no need for additional assessments. This time you'll be tested for your spells. Next, the first session will be carried out, and the catalytic examination will be carried out. ”
After speaking, Deacon Wang waved his hand, and several deacon disciples next to him picked up the tray containing the seeds, came to the field, and distributed the seeds needed for the assessment of the hair promotion technique to everyone.
Each person had a small bag containing nine paper packets containing three seeds.
There are a total of nine different seeds, and there are three of each.
It seems that there are nine different seeds, representing different levels of difficulty. Three of each seed, which means that you can only fail three times.
Xu Ke glanced at these seeds, and the only ones he could recognize were the lowest difficulty silver leaf jute and thousand bell millet seeds, and none of the seeds in the back had ever been seen.
"Each person has nine different seeds, and the numbers from one to nine are written on the paper packets, and the difficulty ranges from one to nine."
After the seeds were distributed, Deacon Wang said, "Take out the seeds and sow them in the grass in front of you." If you fail three times, the assessment will be over. After the time is exceeded, the assessment ends. Now, the assessment begins! ”
With Deacon Wang's order, the disciples who participated in the assessment took action one after another.
The first-level difficulty of silver leaf jute and thousand bell millet is easy for everyone to solve.
Xu Ke deliberately maintained a speed similar to that of others, and carried out the seed induce, and on the grass in front of him, a thousand bell millet and a silver-leaf jute seedling quickly grew.
Just as Xu Ke was about to stop, he suddenly noticed that some of the disciples were raising higher and stronger seedlings than others.
So, Xu Ke added a little more wood spiritual power to the past, so that the seedlings he spawned were taller and stronger.
If you want to get the first place without dispute, you must naturally lead everywhere.
Even if the seedlings are taller and stronger, there will be no plus, Xu Ke still did it.
Xu Ke's actions made the white-haired old man who had been closing his eyes and ignoring foreign affairs open his closed eyes slightly, and after glancing at Xu Ke, he closed his eyes again.
In the second and third rounds, Xu Ke maintained a similar speed as others, but he also maintained the seedlings that were promoted, taller and stronger than others.
Wait until the fourth round, and the gap will start to widen.
Some people have a situation where the first invocation is unsuccessful, and the second or third invocation is successful.
Xu Ke still maintains the inducing speed of the first echelon, maintaining a taller and stronger posture of seedlings.
In the fifth round, there began to be people who failed to urge three times in a row and ended the assessment.
In the sixth round, there are even more who are left behind. More than half of them finished the assessment in this round.
By the seventh round, only two were left who were able to successfully induce the three inducing techniques. One is Xu Ke, and the other is a young man in his twenties, who seems to be from Xishanfang.
In the eighth round, Xu Ke successfully completed the prompting, and the young man from Xishanfang failed to prompt three times in a row and ended the assessment.
At this point, the assessment of the inducing technique has ended, and Xu Ke has undoubtedly won the first place.
Is this a win? I haven't even made a lot of effort yet!
Really...... I'm just making a slight move, and I'm already at the limit of this stage.
It's still the same sentence, that year, I put my hands in my pockets, and I didn't know what an opponent was!
