154 Major Proofreading (1)

Not long after, the day of the Great Proofreading of the West Kunlun Sect finally came.

The so-called "big school inspection", as the name suggests, is divided into two parts: school examination and inspection. The "school" is a competition, and the "inspection" is an examination, and the immortal master of the sect comes forward to conduct a comprehensive examination and inspection of the disciples' cultivation progress and actual combat level. It is aimed at all the disciples of the Qi refining period on the mountain, whether they are gray or white, the outer door or the true lineage, all of them must be subject to the same inspection. It is carried out every five years, which is considered to be the summary of a stage of practice by Brother Kunlun.

The first thing to do is the inspection link, the examination, which tests the familiarity of the disciples of the sect with the exercises they have practiced, as well as their mastery of professional skills such as the six arts of the Xianmen. The difficulty is not too great: it only requires being able to perform a skill and a preliminary grasp of one of the six arts of Xianmen. There are no mandatory requirements for the level of realm and skill level.

But if you can't do that, you'll be deposed - but there really hasn't been such a fool in the history of West Kunlun. The sect exam is really easy, as long as you have a little foundation, you can definitely pass.

But such an exam is not meaningless, and no one in the sect dares to ignore it—because the exam results also determine the disciple's position and identity in the sect. Especially for those who want to serve as deacons and disciples in the halls, there are performance requirements for the assessment of corresponding skills - for example, the members of Tiangongtang, in terms of "making weapons", "formations" or "exorcisms", etc., must always have one that can meet its requirements, and the people of the Medicine King Academy must not be too bad in the "alchemy" skills, otherwise why should people use you?

As for those positions that do not require professional skills, they often have certain requirements for martial arts and combat effectiveness. This is more reflected in the second item: the school examination link - the disciples form several teams according to the cultivation realm, first conduct internal competitions, and then the low-level disciples can challenge the high-level senior brothers one by one, and finally rank the top ten among the qi refining disciples with their actual combat ability, called the top ten disciples of the sect.

Therefore, those who are not in a high realm, have been repeatedly defeated in martial arts competitions, and have insufficient force, will often be more miserable in this situation - there are many talents on Kunlun Mountain, even if they want to serve as miscellaneous deacons, martial arts and Taoism must have a certain level. If the combat effectiveness is too low, no one will care about it - you can improve your cultivation first. And if he can't enter those R&D departments as a "technical talent", nor can he stay as an ordinary serving disciple, then why should a gray-clothed disciple still rely on Kunlun Mountain?

- Therefore, the great inspection of the sect every five years seems to be relaxed, but it is not something that can be ignored. It's not that as long as you pass the minimum standards, you will definitely not be deposed - either you have the skills, or you can fight, or at least you have to be able to pull relationships, and there are departments willing to take you in. If you can't do anything and can't find a suitable reason, then you should honestly go down the mountain and become an outer disciple.

Of course, as a disciple of the True Transmission of the White Cloth, they will definitely not encounter this kind of problem—they don't need a reason to stay on the mountain. As an alternative to the future Fa Yuan Immortal Master of the sect, cultivating with peace of mind and striving to advance to the Fa Yuan Realm as soon as possible is their "own job" on Kunlun Mountain.

As for other aspects, there is definitely no need to do miscellaneous work, and if you like the technical department, you can also do some part-time work - after all, the white-clothed disciples are often very good in all aspects, and they can practice the exercises well, and their mastery of the skills of the Immortal Gate will definitely not be too bad.

However, in general, the sect still requires them to focus on cultivation, after all, the six arts of the Xianmen are only external objects, and their own cultivation is fundamental.

Huang Chang has recently been reminded by his master again - the six arts assessment is two out of six, except for the "Fu Gong", which everyone has to test, and the remaining five subjects can choose one of them. But Huang Chang went to take the six arts test very coquettishly, and then except for "alchemy" and "beast control", the evaluation of the other four subjects was "excellent", showing the true character of the scholar!

However, Master Changqingzi did not praise him for this, but nagged him next to his ear for a long time, which was nothing more than not to distract himself and the like, especially to take out the lessons of Tianjizi's predecessors back then and say it again - Huang Chang's nickname of "Tianjizi Second" has now reached the ears of the Fayuan monk on the mountain.

When others talked about it, they all felt that if Huang Chang could really reach the same realm as Tianjizi back then and become a Jindan monk, it would already be a very lucky thing, after all, the Jindan monk was already a top figure in the immortal cultivation world. But in Changqingzi's opinion, Tianjizi obviously had the possibility of continuing to go upward, but he was distracted by his preference for those clever paths, which affected the right path of the immortal path, and finally stopped in the Jindan period, which was really a pity.

And now Huang Chang's energy is even more dispersed than Tianjizi-Tianjizi is still only studying one refining weapon, while Huang Chang is simply cultivating six disciplines! This is simply ......

- Even Changqingzi can't say whether it's good or bad. Although he repeatedly reminded Huang Chang to pay attention to this aspect, he did not simply and rudely ask him to stop studying these external skills. Because Changqingzi found that Huang Chang was still a little different from Tianjizi back then in terms of treating these skills.

Tianjizi is really obsessed with it - every time he encounters a difficult point, or thinks of some wonderful points, he has to spend a lot of time and energy to study thoroughly, especially love to open up new ideas, that is really enjoyable. As a result, many new things are created, but after the innovation is completed, they often lose interest, and they are thrown aside to play with other things.

Huang Chang is different, although he also likes to study, but it is based on a very practical attitude, and it can even be said to be quite utilitarian - Changqingzi noticed that Huang Chang is basically taking a good path that his ancestors have created. Learning, not innovation.

Compared with Tianjizi, who likes to engage in new things, Huang Chang, the "second Tianjizi", is more keen on how to fully integrate and utilize the existing technology and make it play the greatest practical role. And since it is integration, it is an advantage to have a wide range of knowledge and at the same time to understand the six arts of Xianmen.

Another point is that Huang Chang pays special attention to the "scale" and "economy" of products, always trying to use the cheapest materials to achieve as many functions as possible, and at the same time to be able to produce quickly in large quantities, but does not pursue perfection...... And if in the process, you encounter a real difficulty that is difficult to solve, it is not a hard top, and you try to bypass it as much as possible, or simply give up and find another way.
