Chapter 15: The Spiritual Root

"Just recruit students to pay tuition, don't you need to test the spiritual root?"

Ever since I heard Dangyang Sanxiong say at the Yuelai Inn that as long as you pay money, you can enter the Alliance Academy to cultivate immortals, and it doesn't matter if you have a spiritual root or not, it has always made Mei Daojia very confused.

Why is the threshold for cultivating immortals in this world so low, in his impression, the premise of cultivating immortals is to have spiritual roots, and this world gives him the feeling that even if he is a dog, as long as he has money, he can cultivate immortals.

"I don't know about this, that's what the academy stipulates, and we just do things according to the rules!"

It's a vernacular, but if you say it, you don't say it. Mei Daojia smiled helplessly, Zhang Xian is also an ordinary steward, it is unlikely that he knows too many things in the immortal cultivation world, it seems that he will have to find a chance to figure it out later!

Mei Daojia checked the 10,000 taels of silver tickets he was carrying in the gossip bag, thinking that Xu Zhuocai was only at the fifth level of qi refining, and he had to work hard for 100,000 taels of silver, how long could this 10,000 taels of silver make him spend in the academy, and couldn't help but ask worriedly.

"And how does the Alliance Academy charge?"

Zhang Xian spread out the paper that Mei Daojia got from the desk in the lobby on the table, pointed to the words on the paper and explained to Mei Daojia the fee standard of the Alliance Academy one by one.

The tuition fee for the junior class is 3,200 a year, and the tuition fee for the junior class is 3,200 a year, and the achievement depends on the individual's talent, and the board and lodging are at their own expense, but they must eat and live in the canteen and dormitory provided by the college.

The tuition fee for the advanced class is 30,000 taels a year, and the teaching package will be included, regardless of the talent, whether there is a spiritual root or not, after one year, it will enter the first layer of qi refining, with full board and lodging, and there will be a special person to help sort out the housework, and the students can practice with peace of mind.

Understood, Mei Daojia pouted, isn't this an aristocratic school, the senior class is an excellent student, as an uncle, it is good to eat and drink, and after graduation, he will be admitted to the key points;

Alas, a tael of silver is difficult for a hero! The senior class does not need to be considered, it is for the local tyrants; but this junior class is not easy to mix, three thousand two a year, not including the meeting, and the board and lodging have to be taken care of.

With past experience, the accommodation provided by the academy is also a pit, and this 10,000 taels seems to be only enough to toss for two years, two years, not to mention cultivating immortals, you can't learn to cultivate your hair!

Mei Daojia is a little embarrassed, if he can't learn in two years, he will become a poor egg, change his career to beg, it's really not good, find a crooked neck tree to hang up, go to the two brothers in the black sky and white night, and cultivate immortals can be repaired to bankruptcy and hang themselves, which is enough for the nest.

"Steward Zhang, can you enter the Qi refining period in these two years of cultivation?"

Mei Daojia was unwilling to let the silver go down the drain, and then he was waiting for Bai Ye to see his jokes.

"It depends on the individual's talent, if you have a spiritual root, even if it is the worst spiritual root, as long as you study hard in the academy, and then cooperate with the conditioning of some pills, you can basically enter the qi refining period. “

"Wait, didn't you say earlier that you don't need to measure the spirit root? Steward Zhang, you won't be fooling me, are you?"

One time I will say that it is unpredictable and then I will test it again, this is going around and around, Mei Daojia is a little dizzy, this alliance academy's routine is too deep, don't take me to the ditch.

"Xiaodao Chief, you misunderstood!" Looking at Mei Daojia's anxious appearance, Zhang Xian hurriedly explained, for fear that he would scare away his commission.

"The main purpose of the establishment of the Alliance Academy is that everyone has immortal cultivation, so the students recruited can be taught without class, regardless of whether they have spiritual roots or not, they will be taught according to their aptitude, so that those who admire the immortal sect can have a chance to learn. “

"As for how high the achievement is, it depends on the individual's talent, and the main purpose of testing the qualifications of the spiritual root is to let those students understand how high their future achievements are, don't achieve nothing at that time, blame the academy for not teaching well, and ruin the reputation of the academy!"

There is no class of education, everyone has immortal cultivation, it is high-sounding, and this tuition fee alone has blocked a large number of people from the immortal gate.

But this is also common sense, as the saying goes, the poor are rich and martial, the family is so poor, there is no last meal, I don't want to make a full meal, and I still think about cultivating immortals and preaching, which is not realistic.

"How do you test it, I want to try it?" Mei Daojia also wanted to know if she had the talent to cultivate immortals.

"There are immortal stones prepared by the immortal gate in Juxian Building that are specially designed to test the qualification of the spiritual root, as long as you press your hand on the immortal stone, the fee is one hundred taels, what do you think?"

"Lead the way. "It's only one hundred taels under the test, which is a little expensive, but it's about the spiritual root qualifications and I don't know the bottom of my heart, so I should buy an insurance."

"Childe, please here!" Zhang Xian, who was ready to get a commission, got up with a smile and led the way, even changed his name, and his voice was as sweet as if he had just finished drinking honey.

Mei Daojia was shaken by this sweet voice, and felt as if her body was crawling with tens of thousands of ants, and she was uncomfortable, and sure enough, it was the uncle who spent the money.

Looking at Zhang Xian, who was walking in front of him with extraordinary diligence and full of energy, Mei Daojia was a little curious: "Manager Zhang, how much silver can you earn in this Juxian Building in a year?"

"Not much, not much, just more than a thousand taels, the rich family, less than the top, more than the bottom, haha!"

It seems that the income of the manager of Juxian Building is not a secret in Wuyang City, and the laughter in Zhang Xian's words revealed a taste of pride and satisfaction.

"The building near the water gets the moon first, why doesn't Steward Zhang cultivate immortals?"

Zhang Xian, as the manager of Juxian Building, has an okay income, but he would rather be a mortal than join this promising family of cultivating immortals, which makes Mei Daojia a little puzzled.

"I can't fix it! I can't fix it!"

Zhang Xian shook his head, "In Wuyang City, for the sake of cultivating immortals, there are many people who have lost their family fortune, and in the end nothing has been accomplished, the whole family sleeps on the streets together, begging for a living, pitiful! Son, don't laugh at me, Lao Zhang, I don't have any big ambitions, and my wife and children are satisfied with the hot kang head!"

This Zhang Xian is a real person.

While talking, Zhang Xian took Mei Daojia to a large room in Juxian Building, there were no tables and chairs and other furnishings in the room, and there was only a two-person high boulder in the middle, the boulder was split and chiseled neatly and squarely, and the surface was carved with strange textures, surrounded by a stone carved gossip on the boulder, and a middle-aged man in gray clothes sat on the futon with his eyes closed next to the boulder.

Zhang Xian respectfully stepped forward and bowed down and said, "Immortal Master Lu, someone has come to measure the spiritual root!"

The Lu Immortal Master sat on the futon without moving, and did not respond, not knowing whether he was meditating or falling asleep.

Mei Daojia was secretly wondering, only to see Zhang Xian bending down and turning his head to gesture to Mei Daojia, signaling him to take out the money, Mei Daojia suddenly realized, took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels from the gossip bag and handed it over.

Zhang Xian took the silver ticket, held it in both hands and respectfully handed it to Lu Xianshi, perhaps smelling the aroma of ink on the silver ticket, Lu Xianshi raised his head and opened his eyes to look at Mei Daojia, took the silver ticket with his right hand and put it in his sleeve pocket.

"Press your hand on the gossip of the spirit stone!" closed his eyes again.

Mei Daojia walked to the spirit measuring stone, muttering in her heart whether to put her left hand or her right hand, and the voice of Lu Immortal Master came from next to her: "Any hand is fine." “

Mei Daojia pressed his right hand on the gossip of the spirit measuring stone, and the moment his right hand touched the gossip, a cool air gushed out from the spirit measuring stone, and passed into the body along the meridians of Mei Daojia's right hand.

Mei Daojia was thrilled by this sudden coolness, and the coolness stayed in Mei Daojia's mind for a moment and then retreated to the spirit stone along the original path of the incoming meridians.

The spirit stone slowly lit up with a faint white light, which lasted for less than two seconds before dissipating.

"Single spirit root, ethereal spirit root, ordinary qualifications!"

This is the end? Mei Daojia was confused, what kind of play, you can explain it, what kind of single spirit root ethereal spirit root is ordinary, what is it.

Seeing Lu Xianshi like this, Zhang Xian was empathetic, and gestured to Mei Daojia to take out money.

This also has to collect money, it turned out to be waiting for me here, dig it, and I don't see a hundred taels, although I am a 10,000 yuan household, but life is not like this!

You two eat so many silver tickets from me, and tomorrow you will be killed in the thatched house! Mei Daojia gritted her teeth and took out the silver ticket and handed it to Zhang Xian, her uncomfortable expression was like cutting a piece of meat from her body.

Lu Xianshi took the silver ticket handed by Zhang Xian, his face was satisfied, and he was not stingy with words, and explained the classification of spiritual roots to Mei Daojia in detail.

The immortal cultivation world divides the spiritual roots into the basic five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and during this period, various mutated spiritual roots such as air, wind, thunder, and poison are also derived.

The spiritual root qualification is divided into three categories: the best, the middle grade, and the ordinary, and the best spiritual root qualification is the most outstanding, and the person who has the strongest affinity for the perception of the aura and the five elements when practicing, and the speed of absorption and integration are also the fastest.

The medium-grade spiritual root has two-thirds of the qualification of the best spiritual root, while the ordinary spiritual root is only one-third, which belongs to the worst type of spiritual root, so it is also called the inferior spiritual root.

A single spiritual root means that the person only has a single spiritual root, and those who have two or more spiritual roots are called multiple spiritual roots. Because people with a single spiritual root only need to cultivate one kind of spiritual power without worrying about the problem of fusion, their cultivation speed is the fastest.

To put it simply, the less spiritual roots, the faster the cultivation, and although the cultivation is fast, it is an extreme way.

The mutated spirit root evolved from the five elements spirit root, and the two spirit roots such as thunder poison are the extreme manifestations of the evolution of the wood spirit root.

Although the Ethereal Spirit Root is a mutated Spirit Root, it is evolved from the collision and dissipation of the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, and does not carry any of the attributes in the Five Elements Spirit Root.

"The single-attribute ethereal root you have on your body can also be cultivated, and if you enter the realm quickly, you can cultivate into the Qi refining period within two years!"

After Immortal Master Lu finished analyzing and summarizing Mei Daojia, he began to close his eyes and meditate again.

Zhang Xian took Mei Daojia out of the room and returned to the room where Mei Daojia was originally received.

Mei Daojia sat in the room, feeling depressed in his heart, the single spirit root, but it was the worst, and it was also an ethereal spirit root that Lu Immortal Master couldn't understand, although it could be cultivated to the Qi refining period in two years, but what about two years later?
