Chapter 42: Skipping Class and Monthly Exams
After doing all this before, recalling the ups and downs of this day, Han Yuan felt extremely tired. Even with his powerful physique and energy at the eleventh level of Qi cultivation, some of them couldn't withstand such a large amount www.biquge.info of consumption. Spiritual and physical strength can be restored, but mental exhaustion cannot be eliminated.
Monks who practice Qi also need a fixed amount of sleep every day. Han Yuan looked out the window, the sky had turned blue, a few remnant stars hung on it, and the moon had quietly disappeared at some point. A glimmer of light lit up at the edge of the sky, spreading inward from the edge of the sky, as if gradually unveiling a hazy pale golden veil.
It's dawn. Han Yuan couldn't help but yawn, and the whole person was groggy, as if he was going to fall to the ground in the next second. This is a manifestation of mental exertion. He looked at the class schedule posted on the wall, which showed that this morning's class was Feng Quan's medicine and poison class.
Feng Quan, drug and poison class?
Han Yuan sneered, he took off his coat directly, closed the window, and lay down on the bed.
Feng Quan's arrogant and ignorant face, he didn't want to see it anymore. Originally, he still wanted to learn knowledge, but with Feng Quan's nonsense last time, he couldn't help but have doubts about the other content that Feng Quan taught. Instead of spending time in Feng Quan's medicine and poison class, he might as well be self-taught, and the "Treasures of the Continent" in his brain is still waiting for him to learn.
Skipping class is such a thing, and Han Yuan doesn't have any psychological burden. Although the Xuanyou Sect stipulated that new outer disciples must learn the basics in the academy for one year, it was only a rule, and there was no punishment for not attending classes.
After all, there are no years of cultivation, and some disciples may spend two or three days on a breakthrough in cultivation, and even if they teach, it is impossible to require everyone to arrive every time. In particular, some disciples have no natural interest in certain courses, so they simply stop going. Over time, everyone knows about skipping classes, and as long as they can pass the college exam every three months, they don't see it.
While Han Yuan was immersed in a rare rest, Han Qiu had been waiting on the Joy Peak for a long time.
There was a faint sound of men and women happy in the cave, and the woman's coquettish voice was mixed with the man's thick/strong gasp, and occasionally the woman's giggling, and the sound of obscenity/indecency was endless.
Han Qiu sat in the guest room outside and slowly sipped tea, his brows furrowed, and the look of disgust in his eyes almost condensed into substance. However, her bearing has always been excellent, but she did not say a word, and waited silently. When the inner room finally calmed down, a woman in palace clothes with a delicate appearance walked out, and Han Qiu's face raised the usual gentle smile again: "Han Ying, you are here." ”
Han Ying nodded, there was still a little tiredness on her delicate face, more of a sense of satisfaction for the progress of cultivation. She put on a snow-white fox fur blanket for herself, sat down lazily opposite Han Qiu, and asked, "Han Qiu." What are you doing with me? With this free time, you might as well go and kill that little bastard in Hanyuan - he got your Chaoyun Peak, right?"
Han Qiu's eyes flashed, and he was not moved by Han Ying's attitude, and replied slowly: "He killed my nephew, he deserves to die." If you think, I will go back and find a place where no one is there to kill him, and then go back down the mountain and give it to my father. ”
Han Ying choked for a moment, and a trace of distorted hatred appeared on her beautiful face: "No, there is a debtor and a debtor, since it was Hui'er who had an accident, there is no need to trouble grandpa." If you don't kill it, don't kill it, in another three months, the outer gate will have a monthly exam, and the golden pill should also be refined, and when Wen Fei retreats and finishes the pill, I will go and finish him off with my own hands! The Dry Bone Plain is a good place, and he should stay there for the rest of his life!"
Han Qiu picked up the teacup and took a sip, blocking the sneer at the corner of his lips with the tea cup that was as smooth as jade. She knows Han Ying too well, or rather, she knows the Han family too well, a corrupt and ruthless family to the roots. Although Han Ying's love for Han Hui was by no means a fake, what prompted Han Ying to kill Han Yuan was the chance that made his father moved. Although I don't know if Han Yuan got any chance, even if it's just a possibility, it's worth it.
But the purpose of her coming today is precisely for this. Since she chose Han Yuan, she still had to protect him for a while, and it would be a pity if it fell into the hands of Han Ying before the foundation was built. Han Qiu thought in his heart, and the expression on his face remained unchanged: "It's up to you." I'm here today for something else......"
In this way, the days came peacefully to the early summer of June.
In the past three months, Han Yuan has lived a very fulfilling life every day. Listen to lectures in the morning, practice martial arts in the afternoon, and return to your room to practice in the evening. In addition to the whole fugue self-study in Feng Quan's medicine and poison class, the other courses were not missing a section of Han Yuan, which could be regarded as greatly making up for his lack of knowledge, and he was no longer a stunned young man who knew nothing about the cultivation world.
Three months did not allow Han Yuan's cultivation to improve much. The tree crystal has gradually dimmed under the consumption day after day, but it is a pity that Han Yuan's cultivation is still stuck at the eleventh layer of Qi cultivation and does not move. Although he had already touched the threshold of the twelfth layer of Qi training, it seemed that he had always been covered with a layer of window paper, and he couldn't break it, which was a small bottleneck.
There is no way to do this, the eleventh to twelfth layers of Qi training, although it is only a small realm, but it is the most difficult level in the entire Qi training period. You must know that the twelve layers of Qi training are also known as Qi training perfection, which shows its importance. The 12 layers of Qi cultivation are not just about opening up one meridian like those previous small realms, but about connecting the 12 main veins of the whole body at the same time as the last meridian, making it a complete whole and completing the real Zhou Tian Great Cycle. In this way, the difficulty of breaking through will naturally increase several times.
Han Yuan wasn't too anxious about this. Although he was looking forward to advancing and building a foundation earlier, he knew that laying a good foundation was the most important thing. The Qi cultivation period is the beginning of all cultivation, just like the foundation, the more solid the accumulation, the more conducive to future cultivation, Han Yuan will naturally not pull out the seedlings to help them grow, and would rather slow down his cultivation and advancement speed a little to ensure that his foundation is stable.
His cultivation stagnated, but Han Yuan's martial arts did not relax in the slightest. The two martial arts "Spirit Ghost Phantom Step" and "Soul Breaking Thorn" that he first obtained had already been trained by Han Yuan, and he was only one step away from entering the realm of Dacheng. And the "Spirit Snake Sword Technique" obtained from Meng Fanlin that night, its moves were also remembered by Han Yuan, but he was idle because he didn't have a good magic sword in his hand, and he could only use a wooden sword instead of practice.
At the point of Han Yuan, at least it must be a high-grade magic weapon to meet his needs, and if he can, he even hopes to be able to obtain a top-grade magic weapon, so that even if he reaches the foundation building period, he will not fall behind. He had the heart to buy a good sword, but a good magic weapon had always been hard to come by. Therefore, Han Yuan had no choice but to put it aside for the time being, using his long whip and Yin Moon Blade first, and only waiting for later.
Han Yuan looked at the class schedule, this was the first medicine and poison class in June, and it was also the monthly exam for the new disciples of the outer sect in March. According to the regulations of the sect, outer disciples need to learn the basic knowledge in the academy for one year, and there are four monthly exams in a year. Unless a disciple can be promoted to an inner disciple within the year, he must not be absent. A few days ago, Han Yuan easily passed the monthly exams of the Fu Array class, the Rite History class, etc., and now it is the turn of the medicine and poison class.
Han Yuan carefully removed the green spirit wooden bottle from the table. A thin vine has been faintly climbed on the edge of the bottle, looking in along the veins, the green stems and leaves are faintly glowing with a little gold, with vitality, it is the newborn golden spotted jade fruit.
Three months, of course, was not enough for it to mature into a complete first-order elixir. But in such a naïve/tender state at present, it is enough to prove Han Yuan's correctness and help him pass this monthly exam. According to what Feng Quan said before, as long as a disciple who can make an elixir seed germinate can pass the first monthly exam, the three vigorous newborn golden spotted jade fruits in Han Yuan's hands are naturally no problem.
In the past three months, Han Yuan's anger towards Feng Quan has dissipated a lot. Although he was still dissatisfied with Feng Quan's previous humiliating tone, he himself understood that his background was there, and he didn't want people to say that it was impossible. Only by improving his own strength and solving the grievances with the Han family one day can he truly get rid of such a shadow.
If Feng Quan was still reasonable and really judged everyone's score, pass or fail according to the requirements, Han Yuan would not be willing to challenge Feng Quan, after all, he had a lot of enemies, and there was no need to make additional enemies. However, with Feng Quan's picky appearance in the past three months, Han Yuan didn't quite believe that Feng Quan, who had a small belly and chicken intestines, could uphold the teacher's morality and judge fairly, which was just a good wish.
When he met Bai Wei on the road, Han Yuan nodded lightly as a greeting, and then staggered and sat down in his own seats. Although it has been three months since he started, Han Yuan and the other disciples are not very familiar, and Bai Wei, who lives in the same courtyard, can meet to say hello, but that's all. He is not keen on socializing, so instead of spending time on such boring things, it is better to practice by himself.
"Wow, it is worthy of Senior Brother Liu, the origin of family education!
"Oh my God, a picky elixir like the Blood Snake Vine can sprout, Senior Brother Liu's monthly exam this time must be the first!"
Just listening to the admiration and praise of the disciples, I knew that it was Liu Danjiao who came in. He came in with a jade flower pot in his hand, ignoring the others around him, just glanced at Han Yuan contemptuously and sat down in his seat. Even if he was wearing a gray outer disciple's robe, he had to learn from those female disciples to tie a bright/gorgeous woven gold belt around his waist, so that Han Yuan could recognize him at a glance.
In the past three months, although he did not have another conflict with Liu Danjiao on the surface, he had a lot of private fights, which was nothing more than tacitly avoiding teaching. Without the suppression of the actual combat assessment rules, the weapons in Liu Danjiao's hands were replaced with high-grade magic weapons, which was not shabby even among the monks in the foundation building period, and it was undoubtedly pressed against the cold abyss. Fortunately, Han Yuan has obtained a few new martial arts, and the two of them are evenly matched. However, both Han Yuan and Liu Danjiao have been completely angry in the past three months, and there is absolutely no possibility of reconciliation, and they will only break out when they have an opportunity.
Of course, on a day like today, everyone still tacitly maintains this fragile peace. Han Yuan just glanced at Liu Danjiao, then turned his head back to look at his golden-spotted jade fruit. In fact, there are not too many disciples like him who personally cultivate elixir, and some disciples have neither the talent nor the rich experience of cultivating elixir, and even if they buy seeds, they often die in the soil. Therefore, many people secretly buy the newborn elixir in the market, and then memorize the cultivation process of the elixir by themselves, which is regarded as their own cultivation. As long as they are not discovered, the teachers usually do not pursue them too much. Of course, for example, an arrogant disciple like Liu Danjiao is different, he has a father who is an alchemist, and it is difficult for him to fail to raise medicine, so he naturally has to seize this opportunity to show his skills.
