Chapter 59: The Great Examination of the Sect
The Xia brothers took the two pots of flowers directly into the pavilion by the waterhole, cut out two flower stands on a large stone near the water's edge, placed them solemnly, and then retreated to the far left, very proudly asking for a dialect comment. Not to mention, these two pots of flowers are really beautiful, which adds a lot of color to the whole small pavilion.
The gifts sent by the friend, Fang Yan was also a little moved, thanked them one by one, and then let them stay for the meal and taste the food carefully prepared by Fang Yan. Then Fang Yan took out another box of spiritual tea, which was left by some of the unlucky monks, made a pot for them, and went to prepare lunch.
A few people were sipping tea there, while sighing and admiring, saying that there are a lot of good things on the dialect, and it is good wine and tea, and the next time the dialect goes home, everyone will go with it. A group of people sat there chatting and chatting, bursting into laughter from time to time.
After waiting for half an hour, before the dialect came out, several people shouted loudly in the pavilion, shouting to hurry up and start the meal. At this moment, Fang Yan walked out with a big food box, and when he arrived at the table, Fang Yan first took out a few bamboo wine glasses and bamboo chopsticks and put them on the table, and then took out bamboo tubes from the food box one by one and put them in front of everyone.
Fang Yan smiled mysteriously and said softly: "This is the food that the junior brother has prepared for a long time, and the junior brother dares to say that few people have eaten it, because even the junior brother is eating it for the first time, if it is not done well, please invite the senior brother Haihan." ”
Several people looked at each other, no one had ever eaten this kind of spiritual food, exuding the fragrance of bamboo and wood, and they didn't know how to eat it. Xia Tongwen spoke first: "This seems to be the Qingli bamboo planted by Senior Brother Fang, can it still be used for people to eat?"
And the dialect just smiled, didn't say much, with a knife to gently cut the bamboo tube in half, it was a tube of steamed yellow mutton, a fresh bamboo fragrance of mutton, immediately wafted out, making people suddenly appetite. Fang Yan picked up the chopsticks and signaled to eat, and several people immediately pounced and devoured them, no one spoke, only the sound of chewing in the mouth.
Immediately after opening another tube, it was eaten up quickly, and after opening a few tubes, everyone began to praise one after another, the whimsy was delicious, and the meal was swept away, and the dozen or so tubes of meals prepared by the dialect were eaten cleanly. The spiritual food steamed from this bamboo tube is so delicious that even the dialect is unexpected.
I had no choice but to steam ten cylinders again, and these people slowly drank the wine while eating the dishes and chatted, praising that today's wine and tea are the three uniques, the best thing on Luoxia Mountain. After eating, the Xia brothers were busy digging bamboo in dialects, even if they used to grow bamboo sun, they could still make such delicious meals, so they had to get some back to plant, and they could also steam things to eat at any time in the future.
The dialect was made to cry and laugh, and repeatedly said that this bamboo was not easy to grow, but they did not listen at all, and kept saying dialect to prevaricate them, and finally had to agree with them to dig up a few plants. Before leaving, Fang Yan gave each person a few taels of spiritual tea, and a few people happily carried the bamboo away.
After cleaning it up, Fang Yan hurriedly watered the bamboo forest and spiritual field, infused the spiritual energy and vitality, and repaired the damage when digging the bamboo. After being busy for a while, it was already sunset when the things in the spiritual field were done, and the dialect was about to start another day of forging and cultivating. Thinking of forging his body, he couldn't help but think of the decoction, "Wuyi Soup", just a kind of spiritual grass called Hongdan was not available, and he asked many people to no avail, which made Fang Yan very depressed.
After ten days, the big test of the sect began, and Fang Yan followed the Xia brothers to Huoluan Peak. In that wide square, eight huge high platforms were placed early, four red and four white, the red one is the martial arts arena, and the white one is the cultural arena. This is the characteristic of the Great Examination of the Fire Sect, unlike other sects, the one who can only fight with spells is Wendou, and the one who can use other combat methods such as magic weapons and talismans is martial arts, which is somewhat similar to the division of the immortal cultivation world.
The distinction between the categories of monks in the world of cultivating immortals is different, and there are many kinds of sayings, and there are different names for the professions or fields that they are good at in cultivating immortals, and the main ones are called Dan Xiu, the alchemists are called instrument cultivation, those who specialize in cultivating runes are called Fu Xiu, and those who are skilled in ingenuity are called Qiao Xiu, and so on and so on, and there are many others, and these professions have a general title, which is called production and cultivation.
Correspondingly, many monks who do not have these talents, or do not cultivate their specialties for other reasons, and mainly focus on combat to cultivate combat power, are generally called combat cultivation, among which there are different names because of the different ways of fighting, those who are good at spell attacks are called law cultivation, those who practice physical alchemy are called physical cultivation, those who mainly attack the divine consciousness and soul are called soul cultivation, in addition to ghost cultivation, demon cultivation, demon cultivation, spiritual cultivation, and so on.
There are also many sects in the Nanyue Xiuzhen Realm that have their own different names, but they are generally the same, or the content is similar but the names are different. For example, the monks who are similar to the birth cultivation are called Wen Xiu, and most of the battle cultivation are called martial arts cultivation, but it is not absolute, Wen Xiu is not impossible to participate in martial arts, and many martial arts cultivators have cultivated powerful spells, and even many martial arts The main means of attack is spell attack.
Therefore, it is impossible for all kinds of divisions to be absolutely unified, and the monks are also called according to their own habits, and in ancient times, it is said that the division of monks was more diverse, and various cultivation methods emerged in an endless stream, and batches of strongmen appeared in various cultivation fields, creating a great era in which a hundred flowers bloomed and ten thousand cultivators competed for strength.
It was time for the disciples to register for the big exam, and thousands of disciples flocked to the eight high platforms in the square. The eyes are basically outer disciples in yellow clothes, and there are very few inner disciples in white clothes, because there is also a link in the ranking battle of outer disciples in the big exam, and the outer disciples with excellent performance are likely to be promoted to inner disciples in the big exam, without waiting for the **** time, so the outer disciples are very enthusiastic to participate in the big exam.
In contrast, the enthusiasm of the inner disciples is much smaller, and they come here mainly to test their combat strength and cultivation, and accumulate experience in fighting methods, but it is said that when the life and death trials in previous years were very rewarding, the sect would also take the Tsukidan as a prize for the top few places in the big exam. At that time, the competition was much fiercer, most of the inner disciples participated, and when the exam reached the final stage, almost all the inner disciples competed for the rankings.
It's a pity that the casualty rate of the disciples who have participated in the life and death trials of the sect has become higher and higher over the years, and the harvest is not as good as one session. Therefore, the enthusiasm of these inner disciples is not high, and many strong inner disciples are not interested in participating at all, and the sect will not force this, and the big exam and **** are all voluntary participation of disciples.
In about an hour, the registration results came out, and more than 1,000 disciples signed up for the competition, and there were two or three thousand people around. A deacon flew up, stood on a flying sword in mid-air, and read aloud the names of the disciples of the eight Dharma Fighting Platforms, and all the disciples who read the names waited in front of their respective Dharma Fighting Platforms.
Fang Yan followed the Xia brothers around, and from time to time I heard them talk about a few of the more famous disciples of the outer sect, what kind of records they have, what kind of magic combat power they have, who is likely to become an inner disciple this time, and so on. The one who heard the most was an outer disciple named Zong Hai, who had been called the senior brother of the outer door by some disciples in recent years, and was the most likely popular candidate to enter the inner door in this big exam.
And Fang Yan has only been away from the fire gate for more than two years, and he doesn't know most of the people here, so he just follows the two. For two days in a row, he followed the Xia brothers, going back and forth between Huoluan Peak and Luoxia Ridge, wandering between the eight high platforms, as long as he had to be lively, he would stop and watch that it was red, and there were often crowds of people in front of the martial arts platform, after all, the competition of real swords and guns was enjoyable.
On the third day, there were a lot fewer disciples who participated in the big exam, most of them were eliminated, only two or three hundred stronger disciples remained, and the few disciples who were nagged by the Xia brothers all stayed on the stage without accident. The competition is also better, whether it is a cultural fight or a martial fight, the remaining disciples have a certain strength, and many competitions have to fight for a long time to determine the winner, and some powerful spells and magic weapons with amazing spiritual power began to appear one by one, making the disciples in the audience addicted.
The most attention of the dialect is actually the spell competition in the literary arena, and the dialect itself is very interested in spells, especially after realizing the discrimination technique, he is more sensitive to the changes in the aura when casting spells, and has some different understandings from the previous ones.
Compared with the martial arts platform, the competition on the Wendoutai generally takes longer, and when the cultivation of the two disciples is not much different, the competition of spells often evolves into the holding of mana, and the longer the stage lasts, the side with deep spiritual power will take advantage of it, and the one with low cultivation will lose in this kind of competition There is no suspense, and those who insist on going to the present are all middle and late stage disciples, and most of them are above the fifth layer.
That's right, the same spells are used to fight around, which is boring, how can there be magic weapons flying around, magic weapons colliding from time to time, pieces of fire and mist colliding fiercely and fighting, and even disciples use spirit beasts and puppets, and the battle is even more dazzling>
During the period, Fang Yan even found a ghost cultivator to participate in the big exam, and the Yin Qi spell weapon made people feel very uncomfortable, just when Fang Yan was surprised, but the person on the side looked calm, and he didn't look strange, he only believed what the Xia brothers said at this time, and the door style from the fire gate was very open-minded, and he couldn't help any exercises and spells, as long as he obeyed the door rules, anything could be learned and practiced.
The competition became more and more intense, and the strength of the disciples who participated in the competition was much stronger, and on the fifth day, there were only thirty-two people left in each group, and they entered the final ranking battle. At this time, the disciples left behind were all elites, among which the inner disciples were the mainstay, and there were only four outer disciples left, and the disciple named Zong Hai was impressively listed.
There are fewer people participating in the competition, but this square is even more lively than a few days ago, standing in front of a white high platform, the light of the dialect sky flies, and the disciples of all the peaks and ridges at this time from the fire gate are afraid that most of them have rushed to watch the ranking battle, in addition to the outer disciples, there are also many servants who are also sneaking in the middle of the crowd, wearing yellow clothes borrowed from nowhere.
The Xia brothers were very puzzled by Fang Yan's persistent view, Fang Yan was alone here these days, standing like this among a few people, sometimes there was only Fang Yan alone, and he was still full of interest, which made people think that there was something wrong with his brain. In fact, it was because in the past few days, Fang Yan had gained a lot of inspiration from their spell competitions, whether it was the way and technique of casting spells, or the great changes in aura that occurred during the spell fighting, he had learned a lot, which was far better than doing it behind closed doors.
The ranking battle of the top 32 went on very quickly, and all the rankings were decided in two days, and a deacon announced the ranking of combat power on the spot. On the side of the Wen Arena that Fang Yan paid attention to, the top rankings were all disciples of the ninth layer of qi refining and even the Great Perfection, and even the late disciples of the seventh and eighth layers of qi refining were ranked after the twenty, which showed that the restrictions on mana were so great that cultivation could not help but sigh in his heart, it was difficult for monks to be opportunistic when testing spells, and only monks with deep mana had the strength to fight.
However, the result of the martial arts arena was much more complicated, although it was also the inner disciple who had an absolute advantage, but there were two outer disciples who entered the top twenty, among which the outer disciple named Zong Hai unexpectedly entered the top ten, which surprised everyone. It is no wonder that there are many disciples who know Zong Hai's strength, and before the game, they firmly believe that he will definitely be able to enter the forefront.
After announcing the results, the deacon also said loudly, according to the deliberation of the Council of Elders, Zong Hai and another disciple were promoted to become inner disciples. The promotion of two people in a big examination was not common in the past, and the sect was afraid that it had lost too many outstanding inner disciples in the last trial, so it was in a hurry to absorb the best of the outer disciples.
The disciples who got the good rankings were overjoyed, and the two who pulled into the inner door were even more ecstatic, and they were dejected when they failed to get their wishes, and everyone left one after another, and the lively big exam ended.
