If Tengyun Phantom still belongs to the category of martial arts, then the shapeshifting and shadow change is close to a divine skill. Especially the art of shapeshifting, once it is completed, it is unpredictable. Sniper once told Nineteen that the advanced art of shapeshifting can teleport from underground to the ground, from the air to the water, from indoor to outdoor, without being affected by any external objects, which can be described as extremely magical.

The current Nineteen is still just getting started with this divine art, but despite this, within ten zhang, Nineteen can already come and go without a trace.

Nineteen cultivated intensively for three days, although the time was not long, but the harvest was great, and his shape-shifting illusion technique had a major breakthrough, which can also be said to be a qualitative leap. In the words of the sniper, Nineteen is already one of the few people in the world who has this magic technique, and over time, Nineteen will definitely cultivate this technique to the peak of perfection. And there is hope for a further breakthrough and entering the third level, which is the legendary glimpse level. So far, though, I haven't heard of anyone entering this level.

Cultivation needs to be relaxed. Therefore, on the fourth day, Sniper Gong stopped Nineteen's cultivation day and night, but asked him to reduce his cultivation to four hours a day, and the time was put into the morning and evening. And in this way, you can participate in the palace school again during the nineteenth day.

When Nineteen arrived at the Hall of Talents, the Hall of Talents was already full of seats. According to the will of the king of Chu, the palace school has expanded several times, in addition to the royal family and the three major princes of Zhao, Jing and Qu, as well as the three major families of Ye, Xiang and Dou, the children of Jiuqing and the scholars, and the children of the clan who hold the position of general or above in the army, can choose to send virtuous and upright people to participate in the palace school. Therefore, now there are more than 60 people in the palace school, which is several times that of the previous palace school.

Fortunately, Nineteen's original seat in the front row was not occupied, so Nineteen quickly found a seat in full view of everyone and quickly sat down. Among the crowd, Xiong Huai, Xiang Bei, and Qu Qi were all old acquaintances, and when they saw Nineteen walking in, they all nodded to him in a friendly manner. Uncle Zhao and Zhao Ziyu also participated in the palace study, although the two of them did not greet Nineteen, but they looked at Nineteen very eagerly.

Nineteen is now a celebrity in Yingdu. The story of Tianxiangju's ten-year-old boy bravely fighting the three ghosts of the hidden capital has spread all over Yingdu. Among the many young talents in Yingdu, Nineteen is already known as the first person. Therefore, the arrival of nineteen made a small commotion in the Hall of Talents. Nineteen didn't care about everyone's unusual attention to him, but sat quietly in his seat, waiting for the palace teacher to start teaching.

Today's first class is, of course, taught by Shinko. Shenzi is an outstanding representative of the contemporary Huang Lao School, and the content of what he talks about is of course also the study of Huang Lao. And this class is precisely teaching the core chapter of Huang Laozhi's learning, "Abandoning Knowledge and Going to Yourself". I only heard Shenzi speak in a low voice, and preached:

"What is the meaning of abandoning oneself is to abandon self-righteous scheming, get rid of harmful and useless opinions, go with things and be natural, tolerant and laissez-faire, in order to achieve the highest state of self-cultivation and governance. The ancient sages are often not tired of the vulgar, not decorated with things, public but not party, easy and selfless, their movement is like water, their stillness is like a mirror, they are gestures, they are in harmony with the sky, they are happy and angry in the four o'clock, and the movement and stillness are integrated into the heaven and earth.

The ancient Holy Emperor Yellow Emperor reigned for nineteen years and ordered the world. Seeking advice from the gods, Guangchengzi, wants to take the essence of heaven and earth to nourish the grains, and wants to forcibly take the qi of yin and yang to prolong life. Guangchengzi said, to the extreme, ignoring and listening, holding on to his mind, and acting self-righteously. He also said that if a man cannot overcome the heavens for a long time, and if he moves against the heavens, there will be calamities. Guang Chengzi can be said to know the Tao, so he is a thousand years old, but he is still like a baby. From this point of view, man's actions and behaviors must conform to the laws of nature, and to achieve the unity of heaven and man, so that they can be comparable to the true people of ancient times......"

Shenzi talked about the subtleties, his mouth was like a river, and his eyes were intoxicated. But the crowd listened drowsy and yawned. Nineteen also seems to understand whether he understands, and he seems to understand but not understand, but compared with everyone, Nineteen is not bored with this heavenly book-like language, and in the haze, he seems to understand something, and seems to grasp something from this almost aphoristic narration, and always feels that the seemingly mysterious and incomprehensible Huang Laozhixue is actually not mysterious, and he is just separated by a veil.

Shenzi spoke for an hour and a half, and finally finished. He glanced at the groggy crowd, without any expression on his face, nodded indifferently to Lu Sheng and Xu Sheng, as usual, without making any explanation, Shi Shiran left the hall.

After Shenzi's figure disappeared completely, Xu Sheng, the assistant teacher on the side, stood up, coughed lightly, pressed his hands lightly, quieted the slightly chaotic hall, and then announced:

"This is the end of today's palace study, and the original Q&A class has been temporarily cancelled. The king has an order, the guest secretary of Chu State, and the master of swordsmanship, Wei Yu, want to go to the palace to learn and select apprentices, and if you are interested in learning swords, you can go to the school martial arts field with the students for a while to wait for the selection, and if you are not interested, you can disperse. ”

The hall was in an uproar all of a sudden, and everyone had already heard of Wei Yu, and they all knew that his swordsmanship was superb, and if he could worship under his door, he would be able to achieve swordsmanship. It's just that this Wei Yu is a bit of a high-minded quirk, and most of the disciples he accepts are from poor families, and even from commoners, as for the princes and grandsons and the children of the family, he is very repulsive, since he occasionally accepts apprentices from them, he is also very strict in selection, and the number is very small. And today, it is extremely rare for this Wei Yu to go to the palace to choose an apprentice. The young people who participated in the palace study are all outstanding figures in their own clan, and they have high expectations for their future, and the state of Chu is based on martial arts, emphasizing military force and light literature, so when they heard that Wei Yi wanted to choose an apprentice, they were all excited, and everyone was excited.

Xiong Huai also knows this person, and he is also very eager to learn swords from him, but Xiong Huai knows that there is little hope, and his martial arts are not outstanding, so I am afraid it will be difficult to choose. Wei Yi will never lower the standard of accepting apprentices because Xiong Huai may be the crown prince, at this point, Wei Yi has always been ruthless, even if the king of Chu intercedes, he will not buy it. Despite this, Xiong Huai was still very curious, and he didn't know how this Wei Yu would choose his apprentices. Therefore, Xiong Huai decided to participate in the selection of apprentices with everyone, and as for whether he could be selected, he had no expectations.

Although Xiang Bei and Qu Qi had never learned swords, they were very yearning for the swordsmanship of Yue Nu. This Yue Nu swordsmanship is too famous. There are four major swordsmanship in the world, namely the gentleman's swordsmanship, Mozi's swordsmanship, the wind and thunder swordsmanship and the Yuenu swordsmanship, and the Yuenu swordsmanship is the most mysterious and powerful among the four swordsmanship. The three most famous contemporary swordsmanship masters are Beimen Cheng of Yan State, Zhao Wuji of Zhao State, and Wei Yu of Chu State, and these three people are all descendants of the Yue Nu Sword School, and the prosperity of the Yue Nu Sword School can be seen from this. Therefore, Xiang Bei and Qu Qi are of course very interested in Wei Yi's apprenticeship.

Nineteen is also interested in this matter, and after the last encounter and assassination, Nineteen deeply realizes that he is too lacking in offensive means. If you can get the true transmission of the Yue Nu swordsmanship, once you encounter the enemy, you will not be able to flee and have no power to fight back. It's just that I don't know if this Yue Nu swordsmanship is in vain, if it's like a gentleman's swordsmanship, it's useless, then don't learn it.

Everyone called for the party, surrounded Xu Sheng and Lu Sheng, and ran noisily all the way to the school martial arts field.

The school martial arts field in Chu Palace is slightly smaller than the school martial arts field in the Yingdu military camp. However, the viewing platform of the school's martial arts field was very large, and more than 50 students, under the command of the two teachers, sat on the viewing platform one after another, waiting for the arrival of Wei Yu. Everyone was chattering and speculating about the method of selecting apprentices, but no matter what method was chosen, hands-on learning and trials should be inevitable. Therefore, most of these students are still teenagers, one by one, they are elated, looking forward to a hot fight scene for a while, most of them think that they have no possibility of being selected, but to be able to witness a lively is not in vain.

About past tea time, a special palace passenger was led by several eunuchs and guards to the school martial arts field. Then a middle-aged man and a teenager stepped out of the car. The middle-aged man was thin and short, with a white face and no beard, and it was the swordsman Wei Yu, but the young man was Huang Xie.

The two young guards walked quickly to the front row of the prince's seat in the middle of the viewing platform, opened the huge palace feather fan, bowed their waists, and humbly gave Wei Yu into the middle seat, which was originally the seat of the king of Chu. Wei Yu's face was gloomy, his eyes were indifferent, and he strode over, without any humility or fear, and sat in the middle seat without concession. When the people at the viewing platform saw Wei Yu so powerful, they were shocked and silent for a while. Huang Xie also had a serious face and stood beside Wei Yi respectfully.

An old eunuch of a higher rank faced the crowd at the viewing platform and said sharply:

"The king decreed that the guest Qing Wei Yu entered the palace to select apprentices on behalf of the king, and all students who participated in the palace school could participate in the selection, and many matters were decided by Wei Yu at his own discretion. ”

After the old eunuch finished speaking, he stepped aside. A commander-level guard walked to the front desk, first saluted respectfully, and then said to everyone:

"The method of selecting apprentices this time is very simple, that is, to decide by actual combat. Then, the guard nodded to Huang Xie, and when Huang Xie saw this, Wei Yi took the lead and calmly walked to the middle of the school martial arts field and stood up. When the guards saw Huang Xie entering, they continued:

"The young man in the field is Huang Xie, the youngest disciple of Lord Wei Yi, and today he is your examiner. As long as you can go through ten moves under him and not be defeated, you can become a disciple of Lord Wei. ”

The audience was in an uproar again, except for the nineteenth, Xiong Huai and a few other people who knew Huang Xie, the rest of the people did not know Huang Xie. Seeing that Huang Xie was only fifteen or sixteen years old, similar to everyone's age, and turned out to be an examiner, this made the arrogant sons have a look of anger on their faces. This is too contemptuous of people, can it be that this young man who looks very quiet and harmless to people and animals is faced with the rotation confrontation of the fifty people in the audience? Even if this young man is strong in martial arts, his physical strength is limited after all, how can he withstand the wheel battle of fifty people. Moreover, if this is the case, wouldn't the later you play, the more chances you have? There was a brief cold field on the field, and no one wanted to be the first to play, and once they failed, wouldn't it become a stepping stone for others?

Just as the scene was becoming more and more awkward as time passed, a young man suddenly stood up and said loudly:

"Since everyone doesn't want to be the first bird, let me start this first competition!"
