Chapter 35: How is this done?
"The second assessment is over."
"Corruption Assessment, First Place: Xu Ke of Hedongfang."
Xu Ke again?
In the tea room, after hearing the announcement of the second assessment results, the owners turned their heads to look at Liu Yongtian, the Hedong Fangzheng who was sitting in the corner.
"Lao Liu, didn't you say that he just practiced the hair urging technique well? Didn't you say that his other spells were average? Didn't you say he was at the end of his potential? ”
Xishanfang was turning his head to look at Liu Yongtian, his eyes widened, "You old guy, you don't have a word of truth in your mouth, you are all fooling." ”
"This ...... Hehe......"
Liu Yongtian shook his head with a smile, "Actually, I really didn't know he was so powerful. This kid is really unexpected! ”
"Okay, what's the?"
All the squares looked at each other and expressed great contempt for Liu Yongtian's pretentious gesture.
Liu Yongtian shook his head helplessly, "What I said is true, why don't you believe it?" ”
-----------------
The third assessment begins.
This time, the test is "rainfall technique".
Deacon Wang ordered a copper basin to be placed in front of each of the disciples who participated in the assessment.
"I know that many people think that the rainfall technique is useless, but they practice the rainfall technique just to cope with the assessment."
When the copper basins were distributed, Deacon Wang stood up and glanced at everyone, and the expression on his face became very serious.
"As the deacon of the Sinon Temple, I can tell you responsibly that the rainfall technique is one of the most critical spells for planting monks."
"You have only cultivated the lower grade spirit field now, and the most basic crops you have planted are also the most basic crops. Once you are successfully promoted, when you need to cultivate the mid-grade or even high-grade spiritual fields, the importance of the rainfall technique will be reflected. ”
"For example: an elixir called Youyuetan, the cultivation requirements are extremely high, and every time you cast rainfall watering, it must be accurate to the point, otherwise, the elixir will fail to cultivate."
"There are many, many more such examples. Therefore, this rainfall technique assessment is a test of your control of rainfall technique! ”
"Now, I'm announcing the exam questions."
"Each of you has a copper basin in front of you. I want you to cast a rain spell on the copper basin, and the rain will be one inch, three and a half millimeters. If the error is within one point, it is considered qualified. Each person has three chances. ”
Hearing this question, there was an uproar in the room.
This question...... It's so hard!
When practicing rainfall in the past, no one thought about it from this perspective, no matter if the rainfall spell casting speed was fast enough, and whether the spell casting was smooth enough, who would deliberately control the rainfall?
Now, it's so hard to control not only the amount of rainfall, but also down to the minute.
Even Xu Ke felt that this question was a bit of a test operation.
In order to accurately control the amount of rainfall and ensure that the water in the copper basin is one inch, three and a half millimeters, it is necessary to maintain accurate spiritual control at all times during the process of casting rainfall.
And...... The volume of this copper basin has not been measured, and it is impossible to accurately judge how much water vapor needs to be collected and how much rain rains to fall.
If you want to successfully pass the assessment in one cast, you must also know the volume of this copper basin. This is the least necessary known condition.
Thinking of this, Xu Ke hurriedly got up and bowed to Deacon Wang, "Deacon Qi, the disciple has a question. ”
"Oh?"
Deacon Wang glanced at Xu Ke and nodded, "Say!" ”
"The disciple wants to borrow a ruler, I wonder if I can allow it?"
Xu Ke hurriedly asked this question.
"Borrow a ruler?"
When Deacon Wang heard Xu Ke's question, he shook his head, "There is no ruler, you can figure it out by yourself." ”
Borrowing a ruler, don't you just want to measure the size of the copper basin and want to know how much water the copper basin can hold when it is full?
I've given you three chances, and I still need to tell you how much water the copper basin can hold?
After the first cast, it will be tested to see if it is qualified, and this test result is a benchmark, compared to this benchmark, or increase, or decrease, and there are two chances to cast the spell, how can it be passed?
This question seems difficult, but it is not deliberately difficult.
"What else is the problem?"
After answering Xu Ke's question, Deacon Wang glanced at everyone again and asked again.
The disciples present did not ask any more questions.
"Since there are no problems, let's get started!"
After speaking, Deacon Wang stretched out his hand and knocked on the jade chime on the desk, "Now, the assessment begins!" ”
At the sound of an order, everyone cast spells one after another.
As long as you are not stupid, you know that you must first determine how much water can be filled in the copper basin.
So, some people cast a rain spell and filled the copper basin first. Some people cast spells according to their own estimates, towards the goal of one inch, three and a half millimeters of water.
Although the choices are different, everyone does not hope to pass the spell for the first cast, but instead uses it as a benchmark to facilitate the next cast.
Xu Ke did not do so.
Deacon Wang said, "I don't have a ruler, I can figure it out myself," which means that I can use something else instead of a ruler.
Not having a ruler is not a problem, don't I still have a sword?
This sword, with a blade length of three feet, is an export product of the Zongmen Sword Casting Hall. Mass-produced things must be standardized sizes, which just serve as a ruler.
Xu Ke stretched out his hand and pulled out the long sword at his waist, using the sword as a ruler to measure the size of the copper basin.
Just a simple calculation, Xu Ke knew the volume of the copper basin. Then, one liter of water is two catties, and the units are converted, and the amount of water needed is immediately calculated for one inch and three cents and five millimeters of stagnant water.
The answers are out, so what else to say?
With a wave of his hand, Xu Ke unleashed the "Dacheng" level rainfall technique, which was enough, no matter how high it was, there was no need.
The spell is instantaneous, and the spiritual power spreads, constantly gathering water vapor, condensing into clouds, and cumulus clouds into rain.
A small cumulonimbus cloud shrouded the copper basin, and the rain fell in a hurry, accurately falling into the copper basin, and there was a "ticking" sound.
The rain kept falling, and the water in the basin kept rising.
When the stagnant water had just reached one inch, three and a half millimeters, the cumulonimbus clouds gathered over the copper basin just dissipated, and the last drop of rain fell into the copper basin with a "tick".
Seeing this, Deacon Wang's eyes flashed with approval.
It was actually an instant spell, and the rain spell had been completed, and the spell control and spiritual power manipulation were very smooth, and there was a feeling of being in control. Not bad! Not bad!
Before, he used his sword to draw in the copper basin, it should be measuring the size of the copper basin, I don't know if he calculated accurately. Now, it's up to him to see if he can pass the test.
Deacon Wang waved his hand, "Start testing!" ”
Several of the deacon's disciples stepped forward, took out a measuring needle, and began to test the results of the first round of casting.
"One inch and six points of stagnant water, unqualified!"
"Stagnant water, unqualified!"
"Five inches and four points of water, unqualified!"
The test results were reported one by one. Of all the test results, none of them were qualified.
Obviously, everyone made up their minds to use the first spell as a benchmark for trial and error, and didn't expect to pass the assessment in the first round.
When Xu Ke was detected here, the situation was different!
"One inch, three and a half millimeters, qualified!"
After the result was reported, everyone looked at Xu Ke's gaze as if they had seen a ghost.
Passed the first cast? And it's completely up to standard, exactly the same!
How is this done?
