The mysteries of spiritual practice are endless, and Gu Luosheng is just the beginning, so he is not discouraged.
After studying for a few more years and accumulating experience, he will always gain something.
Isn't it the spirit wolf blood?
From the first few percentage points to breaking through 10, it only took ten years.
It's just that the Soul-Swallowing Wood needs to be created from scratch, and there is no way to play the trick of returning to the ancestors. However, he knows the bloodline of the Soul-Swallowing Wood, but the Howling Moon Spirit Wolf is a black box, and there is not much disadvantage to him.
…
Outside Baimai Mountain.
Dozens of children gathered and the sound was chaotic.
"Today is the assessment! I'm so nervous! Huh...huh...Qi Huaishan, do you think we can pass the test?"
The boy next to Qi Huaishan asked nervously.
"Lan Zhizheng, your talent is pretty good, and you haven't been slacking off, so you should be able to do it!"
After half a year, Qi Huaishan has obviously become more confident and even has the energy to speculate on his friends' achievements.
There have been constant quizzes over the past six months, and although he is not the best, he is still considered excellent.
When people know what they can do, they will naturally gain confidence.
However, his biggest problem is that his spiritual root is of the earth element, which does not match the water and wood spiritual roots that the teacher needs.
Therefore, although he has good grades, there is no guarantee that he will become the teacher's disciple.
Excluding him, my friend Lan Zhizheng still has the opportunity to become a registered disciple even if he cannot become a formal disciple.
(How could I have a chance? There are too many great people!) Lan Zhi was about to complain, but then he saw the silver-haired old man pushing open the door and walking out. He quickly said: "The teacher is here, stand up quickly!"
It took a few seconds for the twenty-three children to line up, and it was extremely quiet for a while.
"Well, it looks like everyone is here."
Gu Luosheng glanced at it and nodded with satisfaction.
"My test is very simple. I go through Baimai Mountain and reach the top of the highest mountain. The two people who arrive fastest will become my official disciples. I will accept the others as registered disciples based on their performance. The number is uncertain. There may be no one at all.
It could be a lot."
"Then, let's start the assessment."
Passing through Baimai Mountain?
Many children turned pale.
It would take two hundred miles to walk through Baimai Mountain in a straight line, not to mention the rugged mountain road. Even if they practiced Qi-nourishing techniques, they would probably have to walk for several days!
Suddenly, a child saw the girl standing at the front carrying food and water, looking fully prepared.
He was furious and couldn't help shouting: "Teacher, Le Zhi brought food. Is this allowed?"
"Not only Lezhi, but also Qi Huaishan and Lan Zhizheng! Did they know the content of the assessment in advance?" Some children looked ugly. If it was decided by default, why do they need to take the assessment again?
The girl who was pointed at turned around with a piercing look.
"You are stupid, don't blame others!"
"The sign here is very clear. Today's assessment is to pass through Baimai Mountain. If you had come to inspect it in advance, you would not have this doubt!"
"And the chef in the canteen also mentioned in the morning whether to bring more food and water!"
"You don't have the ability, you don't know how to prepare in advance, and your brain is stupid. Why do you want to become the teacher's disciple?"
All the children were overwhelmed by one person's momentum and were speechless.
Just when they wanted to find Gu Luosheng to ask if this was really the case, they found that the old man had already disappeared.
The assessment has begun!
in the crowd.
An ordinary boy who was not very favored packed his bag and backed away silently, wanting to leave quietly.
However, his expectations were dashed.
"The sign only says that intentionally hurting people is not allowed, but it doesn't say that snatching food is not allowed. Le Zhi and Qi Huaishan are strong and we can't grab them, but aren't there still weak ones? Shi Chengyu, do you want to escape? I don't want to be too aggressive.
If you give me half of it, I will let you go!"
A boy stopped Shi Chengyu who wanted to leave.
"Mengshi..."
Shi Chengyu's mouth twitched.
His talent is the worst among everyone, and his cultivation is naturally far inferior to the boy in front of him.
In the final analysis, children who do not come for inspections are not only lazy, but also most confident in themselves.
"I agree, but wait until we leave here!"
Shi Chengyu shouted and ran directly into Baimai Mountain.
Meng Shi didn't want to push too hard. Half of the food was enough for him to get out of Baimai Mountain. If a fight broke out and his internal energy was consumed, it would put him in an unfavorable situation.
He quickly caught up.
Some of the remaining children also wanted to grab food, but they hesitated for a moment and missed the opportunity.
Baimai Mountain is so huge, how can you still find people after getting in?
Some of them set their sights on others, while others went directly into the mountains, preparing to rely on themselves.
At this time, Lezhi and Qi Huaishan were already far ahead and entered the interior of Baimai Mountain without any hindrance.
…
Gu Luosheng observed secretly and did not show up.
A few days later.
All the children gathered on the top of the mountain to wait for the results to be announced.
Most of them looked dejected, knowing that they would never pass the exam.
Gu Luosheng came out and announced the result directly: "Le Zhi, the first one to reach the top of the mountain, achieved great results and obtained the official disciple qualification."
"Qi Huaishan, second place. Although you have earth spirit roots and I don't have much to teach you, you practice hard and are extremely intelligent. You should also have the opportunity to enter the world of immortality."
"Thank you, master!"
The two men stepped forward excitedly, knelt down and kowtowed, briefly bowing to their master.
Gu Luosheng nodded, asked them to stand aside, and continued to announce: "The following four people are registered disciples, Meng Shi, Lan Zhizheng, Shi Chengyu, and Meng Shan."
What?
Many children were shocked.
Not to mention them, even Shi Chengyu and Meng Shan were very strange.
In Mengshi, Lan Zhizheng was ranked among the best, so it was normal to become a registered disciple.
But they are in the middle of the row and at the end of the row, so why is it okay?
"Registered disciples need auxiliary abilities and character, rather than all-round strength. Meng Shi and Lan Zhizheng are of acceptable strength and have strong mobility, so they can be trained as guards. Shi Chengyu is careful and perseverant, and it doesn't matter even if his talents are slightly inferior.
Meng Shan is the only child who has saved others during trials, which is in line with Mu Linggen's character."
Gu Luosheng briefly explained a few words, and then continued: "You can't practice with me, but I need some people to help me in Wu Kingdom. If you are willing, you can continue to practice here. If you don't want to, forget it and you can go back.
It’s not bad to be a rich man.”
If he didn't know about cultivating immortals and was born into a wealthy family, he would probably continue to study science and technology, improve his quality of life, marry a wife and have children, spend his life happily, and then look at the impact he has made in his later years and close his eyes with satisfaction.
But in this world there is cultivation and the path to immortality, and nothing attracts him more than immortality.
After a moment of silence.
The children made their choices one after another.
"Teacher, I want to stay!"
"I want to go back..."
Watching the young children making choices one by one, Gu Luosheng couldn't help but think about Luoshan Country.
I wonder how Luoshan Country will develop after he leaves.
