Wu Xu has tested his cultivation, it's Chen Yuanzhong's turn.
Chen Yuanzhong put his hand on the top of the stone tower, from the first to the fourth floor, and quickly lit up, proving that Chen Yuanzhong had a sixth-level cultivation level.
Chen Yuanzhong completed the test, and then it was the turn of the Green Lantern Man. The Green Lantern Man tested each one one by one. The cultivation bases were all at the seventh level, and the last one to be tested was Qiao Shungang.
Qiao Shungang had just been poisoned and was still recuperating. With the support of two green lantern men, he put his trembling hands on the tower.
Since he is so weak, it would be good if he could light up two layers, right?
Xu Zhiqiong thought that this tower was a test of cultivation by testing the strength of Qi. He just had to gather some strength and light up the first floor of the tower.
It's a pity that he thought wrong.
The stone tower instantly lit up from the first floor to the third floor. The operating mechanism of this tower has nothing to do with the strength of the Qi machine.
Qiao Shungang was about to take his hand away from the stone tower, but unexpectedly, the fourth floor of the stone tower flickered and gave off a faint light.
What is the situation?
Two Yin Yang Fourth Masters stepped forward to confirm: "Green Lantern Master Qiao Shungang, cultivation level six."
Qiao Shungang has reached the sixth level of cultivation?
All the lantern holders were stunned.
Qiao Shungang himself was shocked.
He quickly explained to Wu Xu: "Qianhu, my subordinates don't know anything about this!"
Xu Zhiqiong sneered in his heart. This excuse was too far-fetched. How could someone not know his own cultivation?
In fact, Xu Zhiqiong shouldn't laugh. In some coincidental situations, practitioners under the cultivation system sometimes really don't know their own cultivation level.
Canglong Ba Dao and White Tiger Killing Dao are typical practice systems. Unlike the merit system, the practice system relies on the cultivator's understanding of cultivation and physical polishing. To put it simply, cultivators cannot see their own progress bar.
Some practitioners who are physically gifted and have a good family background, but who are usually too lazy to practice or do not want to take tests, will have their cultivation level improved to an unexpected level without the practitioners knowing it.
Qiao Shungang is this kind of person. He has good physical talent, Green Lantern Man's family is naturally good, his diet is very exquisite, and he keeps getting pills, but he neglects to practice. He doesn't know much about his own cultivation.
But if it's time to advance to a higher level, wouldn't the cultivator notice any abnormalities in the body?
Of course you can notice it.
For any Taoist sect, level promotion is a disaster. Some cultivators encountered level promotion during the battle because they did not know their cultivation status, and died on the battlefield directly due to physical abnormalities.
Qiao Shungang was luckier, as his promotion came a little late, just after the battle.
An extremely coincidental thing happened. Qiao Shungang was poisoned, was promoted, and almost died on the night the battle ended. Fortunately, due to his strong body and timely treatment, he survived the disaster.
When Qiao Shungang woke up, he thought everything was caused by poisoning. From the beginning, he didn't think about promotion. He really didn't know that he had been promoted to the sixth level.
Fortunately, Wu Xu believed in him, and Zhong Shen also believed in him.
"Shun Gang, promotion is a good thing," Zhong Shen said with a smile, "Looking at it, your time in the Yamen is not short. This time you have made military exploits again, so you should be promoted!"
Qiao Shungang thought about it and realized that it was indeed a good thing. He quickly saluted the commander and Wu Xu and returned to the team with Qing Deng's support.
Xu Zhiqiong was greatly inspired. Qiao Shungang could complete the promotion without knowing it, and I could use this as an excuse.
I usually never pay attention to my own cultivation, but I suddenly got promoted after the battle...
You can explain that you have been promoted to the eighth level, but how can you explain that you have been promoted to the seventh level?
I can't be promoted twice without knowing about it, right?
Xu Zhiqiong looked at Niu Yuxian beside him and had another idea.
He lied that he was also studying the Mohist School. The Mohist School is a system of meritorious service, and it should be possible to be promoted to two ranks in a row overnight.
I can say that I just completed my promotion last night and haven't had time to report it yet.
But what if Zhongshen asked me to do carpentry work on site?
"Zhiqiong, you can make a small bench."
No, this cannot be said nonsense.
Besides, I don’t have Mo’s nails either.
What should I do? I'm about to be tested. How should I explain it?
After the green lantern man's test, it was the turn of each lantern guard.
After the lantern watch test, it was the turn of the green lanterns.
With Qiao Shungang's precedent, everyone was a little excited, hoping that they would also unknowingly improve their cultivation level. Meng Shizhen touched the stone tower for a long time, and almost found sparks, but the stone tower only lit up two levels.
The Fourth Master of Yin and Yang said from the side: "This Qing Deng Lang is really the eighth grade, that is, the eighth grade. Stop rubbing it. The top of the tower has been damaged by you!"
The Qing Denglang test has also been completed, and it’s time for the White Denglang test.
The old white lantern man has finished, it's time for a new white lantern.
Xu Zhiqiong ranked first among the new white lantern men.
So far, he has not come up with a reasonable explanation.
He looked at Wu Xu desperately, and Wu Xu smiled at him: "What are you waiting for? Come up quickly!"
Hearing Qianhu's voice, Xu Zhiqiong felt more at ease, walked to the center of the hall, and gently placed his hand on top of the stone tower.
He tried his best to avoid contact with the stone tower and tried not to let the top of the tower touch his palm.
But if the top of the tower cannot touch the palm of your hand, the first floor of the stone tower will not light up.
Xu Zhiqiong lingered for a long time, and the two masters frowned: "Bai Deng, why are you lingering here? But there are so many people waiting for you?"
He Fang whispered from the side: "Xu Denglang, are you afraid that showing your cultivation will scare us?"
This woman is very ignorant.
I will find an opportunity to bully her in the future.
Xu Zhiqiong pressed his palm down and only touched the top of the tower a little.
The first floor of the stone tower is lit.
The second floor of the stone tower also lit up.
"Zhi Qiong has reached the eighth level?"
Everyone screamed in surprise.
Xu Zhiqiong's heart almost jumped out of his chest. He stared closely at the third-story stone tower and felt a slight flash of light inside.
The stone tower on the third floor was indeed shining, but because the light was too weak, no one noticed it.
The reason why the light was weak was because Wu Xu released a murderous aura that suppressed the fire in the tower.
This trace of murderous aura was not noticed by the lantern-carrying man present, nor by the yin-yang cultivators.
Two Yin Yang Fourth Masters confirmed the cultivation level: "It is the eighth level."
Zhong Shen frowned slightly, then smiled and said: "Zhiqiong, when I recruited you in the academy, you were still in the ninth rank. Unexpectedly, in just a few months, you have been promoted to the eighth rank."
Xu Zhiqiong looked naive, sniffled, and explained to Wu Xu: "My subordinates don't know anything about this."
Gu Xun
Wu Xu smiled and said: "You don't know, I know, otherwise why would I let you rest for three days?"
Wang Zhennan whispered: "I asked why I only gave him three days of leave. It turned out that Qianhu saw that he had been promoted."
Wu Xu asked again: "Have you not felt unwell in the past three days?"
Xu Zhiqiong naturally knew how to deal with such an obvious hint: "I don't know what discomfort is. It just hurts and I have no strength. I slept from dark to noon and still couldn't wake up."
Wang Zhennan whispered: "This silly boy has good talent. When I was promoted, I was in a coma for three days. When I woke up, it hurt as if I had shed a layer of skin."
Zhong Shen nodded: "Even if you have the great talent of anger and the power of a tiger, and your cultivation level has been improved by one level, you still have to go through hell."
This is recognition of Xu Zhiqiong's promotion.
Wu Xu said to Zhong Shen: "When Zhi Qiong was about to be promoted, he knew that he was weak, but he still fought bloody battles with evil thieves and killed ten thieves. He had outstanding military exploits. Now he has reached the eighth level. Although he has just arrived at the Yamen, he should be
I was promoted to Qing Deng Lang and became a commander. You saw this with your own eyes, but you can't say that I took credit for it."
Zhong Shen said impatiently: "When did I tell you that you were cheating on your merits? The green lantern should be raised immediately. Let's check it out quickly."
Xu Zhiqiong took a deep breath and returned to the team under the envious eyes of everyone.
Ma Guangli touched Li Pu'an lightly: "Brother, do you have to call me Mr. Xu from now on?"
"What do you think? He is a Green Lantern Man!" Li Pu'an whispered, "Fortunately, we are kind and have never bullied him. This silly boy has a bright future."
A group of new white lantern warriors went up to the stone tower to test their cultivation level. Xu Zhiqiong took the opportunity to use the Eye of Sin Karma to check their cultivation level.
Bai Denglang was all a ninth-level practitioner, and a very light layer of white mist clung to them, slowly lingering.
The green lanterns are all in the eighth grade, and they also have a layer of fog on their bodies, but it is much deeper than that in the ninth grade.
Most of the green lanterns and lantern keepers were at level seven, and the mist became deeper. It not only stuck to the body, but also spread to a one-foot radius around them.
Chen Yuanzhong and Qiao Shungang were at the sixth level, and the mist spread to three feet around them.
Wu Xu was said to be at the fifth level, and the mist spread to five feet around him.
This seems to be what the fifth level should look like. I really don’t know what means Wu Xu used to hide his cultivation and be able to deceive the Eye of Sin Karma.
The two fourth masters of the Yin Yang Division are also fifth grade, and their mist is not much different from Wu Xu.
While scanning his eyes, Xu Zhiqiong glanced at Zhong Shen.
There is no fog on bell ginseng.
It's strange, doesn't he have any cultivation level?
This is impossible. According to outside rumors, Zhong Shen has a fifth-level killing cultivation level. Even if he lies, he must have at least a sixth- or seventh-level cultivation base. Otherwise, how can he secure the position of commander?
Could it be said that his cultivation level is at or above the fourth level?
In the blink of an eye, it was Chu He's turn. He grabbed the top of the tower and continuously injected Qi, which scared the two masters and shouted:
"No way, the tower is broken, it's really going to break down!"
"Even if you risk your life, you are still in the ninth level. Don't damage the Ruiming Tower!"
Chu He walked away chattering away, and the new Bai Denglang tested each one one by one. The last one who came to the stone tower was Yang Wu.
Behind Yang Wu was a Qing Deng Lang who was specifically responsible for looking after him.
The stone pagoda only lit up one level, and Yang Wu was still at the middle level of the ninth rank. This was not the point.
The point is that he has been watching Xu Zhiqiong, and now the only person who can save him is Xu Zhiqiong.
After everyone finished the test, Zhong Shen checked the results with the two Yin and Yang Fourth Masters, and ordered people to carry Ruiming Pagoda to Qingyi Pavilion.
Xu Zhiqiong didn't know what the purpose of these people's cultivation test was. After seeing off Zhong Shen and the Yin Yang Division people, Wu Xu ordered: "Everyone has been hardworking and goes on patrol at night."
After saying that, Wu Xu looked at Xu Zhiqiong and motioned for him to come to Mingdengxuan.
When he arrived at Mingdengxuan, he screened away the crowds, and Wu Xu said with a smile: "Good boy, you have been promoted to the seventh rank in a blink of an eye. If I hadn't made a quick move, you would have been sent to the Yin and Yang Division right now."
Send it to Onmyoji?
Why Onmyoji?
Xu Zhiqiong thought this matter was led by Zhong Shen.
Xu Zhiqiong quickly saluted and said: "Thank you Qianhu for the rescue. My subordinate has just been promoted in the past two days and has not had time to report to Qianhu."
This sentence is true. Xu Zhiqiong has improved his cultivation level, and he will not hide this from Wu Xu.
Xu Zhiqiong cooked wine for Wu Xu, and Wu Xu drank a glass: "Do you know how dangerous it is today? If it is found that you have a seventh-level cultivation level, and you cannot explain your own sect, you will only be afraid of your life.
I can’t even keep it.”
"Why did the Onmyoji come to check the cultivation level of Denglang Lang?"
"Not just the lantern bearer, all the major government offices in the capital must be inspected. The Yin and Yang Division has taken out ten Ruiming Pagodas. The inspection must be completed before dawn."
"What's the reason for this?"
Wu Xu drank another drink and continued: "Taibu looked at the stars at night and found that there was a spirit of bravery in the capital. He said that this was a talent that was not seen in a century. That is to say, there was an unparalleled talent in the capital. If this talent could be used by the imperial court,
, Naturally, students must be cultivated well, and if they have evil intentions, they must be punished immediately, so His Majesty personally ordered to conduct a thorough inspection of all cultivators in the capital city all night long to see if there is anyone who has made rapid progress in cultivation."
After saying that, Wu Xu looked at Xu Zhiqiong and smiled sinisterly: "You have been promoted to two levels in a row, maybe this person is you!"
Xu Zhiqiong sniffed and said, "One person from a thousand households is fighting six fourth-grade men alone. I think this person is you."
This was no joke, Xu Zhiqiong knew that this person could never be him.
Judge's Way is a system of merit, regardless of talent. The reason why Xu Zhiqiong was promoted so quickly was all because of Wu Xu's care and the convenience of his position, and it had nothing to do with talent.
On the other hand, during the battle in Longjiao Ghost Market, Wu Xu showed his true strength, and there was a real chance that Taibu would discover him.
In fact, Wu Xu was also a little worried. He said calmly: "Xu Zhiqiong, do you dare to betray me?"
Xu Zhiqiong puffed up his chest and said righteously: "I don't dare."
Wu Xu touched his chin and said: "It stands to reason that Taibu knows some details about me, so he won't come to check me. If it wasn't me, who would this person be?"
After thinking for a long time, Wu Xu waved his hand and said: "Forget it, don't think about it anymore. You have to be more careful in the future. I'm afraid I can't protect you anymore."
"Qianhu is going to be promoted?"
"Have you heard too? Next month, I will take up the post of deputy commander."
"After all, I'm still in the Imperial City Department, and my subordinates can still be taken care of by you."
"Imperial City Department? I have to go to the Ministry of Rites and the Correctional Center Department!" Wu Xu smiled bitterly, "In less than a year, I won't even be able to stay in the Imperial City Department, but I don't know where I will be sent to."
"Is it all because of Liang Yuming?" Xu Zhiqiong gritted his teeth and said, "Qianhu, we have all the witnesses and physical evidence, and many servants were captured alive in Prince Huai's Mansion, but this can't convict him?"
"Didn't I say, that thing is useless!" Wu Xu rubbed his forehead, "That's all, let's not talk about this, there is a person, I should have punished him for his offence, but he is in our yamen after all, and our yamen has been released
Xiao Songting, if there is another mole, my face will not look good, so I will leave this person to you."
He was talking about Yang Wu.
"What do Qianhu want me to do with him?"
Wu Xu said: "There are two ways, one is to leave the Yamen, the other is to stay in the Yamen."
Stay in the Yamen?
Is there such a good thing?
"Can Qianhu really tolerate him?"
"Of course I can't tolerate it," Wu Xu looked at Xu Zhiqiong and said, "If he leaves the Yamen, I will find another way out for him. If he stays in the Yamen, he will die in the line of duty within a month. To save his name or to save his life, you
