Although this first requirement is a hard requirement, it is not difficult to achieve, even if it is the five spirit root with the worst talent, as long as it is cultivated diligently, after a year, it can also reach the first level of qi cultivation.
Meng yao knew in her heart that the sect had set the threshold to the first layer of qi training, clearly to get rid of those who had poor talent and were unwilling to work hard to cultivate.
As for spells, you only need to successfully cast any one of them in the assessment to pass the level. If you fail to cast the spell for the first time, you can try it again, which can be said to be very humane.
The assessment of new disciples is jointly responsible for all the stewards of the outer sect, and the method of public assessment is adopted, and under the noses of these stewards, no one can do a fake.
After Meng yao remembered the year-end assessment, she didn't go to her heart, her cultivation was already the second level of Qi training, far exceeding the standard of the year-end assessment, and there was an amazing comprehension and breakthrough in the technique, and she was not afraid of this small assessment at all.
In the next four months, Meng yao temporarily put down the practice of spells, except for still maintaining the operation of the hidden spirit decision when cultivating, no longer practicing any spells, and focusing on improving her cultivation.
The four months passed in a flash, except for going to the dining hall every two months to get the Bigu Dan, Meng yao never went out again, and stayed in the cave to cultivate diligently.
It wasn't until the day before the year-end assessment that she stopped absorbing aura and opened her eyes.
After removing the hidden spirit decision and feeling her own cultivation, Meng yao showed a trace of satisfaction on her face.
The peak of the second layer of Qi training, only one line away from breaking through the third layer of Qi training!
"In the past four months, I have taken Linglu to cultivate, and the speed of cultivation and improvement is really much faster."
Meng yao thought about it, if she didn't use the spirit stone and cultivated normally, even if she used up her spiritual power every time she absorbed it, it would take at least sixteen months to reach this level.
And taking Linglu for cultivation is more than four times faster than regular cultivation!
The further you cultivate, the more aura you need, and the time consumed will naturally increase.
"Tomorrow is the year-end assessment, and in the blink of an eye, it has been a year since I entered the Xiaoyao Sect. I got started on August 1 last year.
Meng yao stood up, jumped out of the cave in a few leaps, and in a blink of an eye it was August again, but there was no mundane seasonal change in Xianshan, and it was the same all year round.
"Over the past year, I have been working hard to practice, even on my birthday and Chinese New Year's Eve, I have never slackened."
Meng yao jumped onto a big tree, rested her head on her hands, and lay leisurely on the branches, looking at the sky through the dense leaves.
"At first, I worked hard to cultivate just because I was afraid that the sect would drive me away, but then I became immersed in the joy of cultivation, and I became stronger little by little, this feeling is really good!"
Meng yao shook her head and smiled, at this time last year, she had just been tested to have a spiritual root on her body, and was accepted as an outer disciple by the Xiaoyao Sect.
At that time, although she was full of joy, she was more worried about the future. Now a year has passed, and she is already on the path of cultivation.
"After I left home, I don't know if my younger brothers and sisters ever thought about me..."
Meng yao remembers that when she left Xujia Village, her younger brother was five years old and her younger sister was only two years old. After such a long time, the two little ones shouldn't forget her, right?
"Xianfan is different, and I don't know when the next time we meet."
On this day, Meng yao did not practice again, but lay on the tree and rested for a day.
Later, she fell asleep directly on the tree.
Perhaps it was the relaxation of her mind, but she didn't wake up until three o'clock the next day.
Meng yao woke up and found herself in a tree, only to realize that she had spent the night in the tree yesterday.
"Oh no, the assessment is about to start!"
Seeing that the sky was bright, Meng yao's little face tightened, and she ran quickly towards the assessment site. Although the assessment only began at the time of the year, the time of the hour required the new disciples to assemble.
Damn, I guess I can't make it to the gathering, I just hope to be able to arrive before the hour!
Hurried all the way, Meng yao finally hurried to the assessment site before the time, at this time all the new disciples and the steward in charge of the assessment of the new disciples had already arrived, Meng yao lowered her head and walked quickly in the direction of the new disciples.
Seeing that the assessment was approaching, and there were disciples who had just come to gather, several stewards flashed unpleasant on their faces, and it was Steward Zhao, who had always been optimistic about Meng yao, and they couldn't help but shake their heads.
This girl looks at a very clever person on weekdays, but how can she be almost late on the day of the assessment?
Zhang Donglai, who was in charge of the management of the new disciples, was shocked, and shouted at Meng yao, "Stop!"
He had been looking for this ugly girl since he came, but he never saw her figure, and thought she was hiding in the crowd, but he didn't want her to come so late!
When he was really sleepy, someone sent him a pillow, and he was still thinking about how to drive this ugly girl out of the sect, isn't there a ready-made excuse.
After Meng yao recognized that it was Zhang Donglai's voice, she secretly said bad in her heart, but she had to stop her steps, turned around, and a smile was already on her face, "Manager Zhang, are you calling a disciple?"
Zhang Donglai snorted lightly, "Nonsense, who are you if it's not you?" It's already the middle of the day, the assessment has officially begun, you came so late, obviously you didn't put today's assessment in your eyes, in this case, you don't have to participate in today's assessment, take the initiative to go down the mountain!
He deliberately made the consequences heavier, in order to scare Meng yao, as long as she had any disrespect for herself... Zhang Donglai's eyes flashed with calculation, as if he saw Meng yao being kicked out of the sect.
Meng yao was shocked and angry, not wanting her to be just an hour late, this Zhang Donglai opened his mouth to expel her from the sect.
She took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her chest. At the moment, you must not quarrel with Zhang Donglai, he is the manager in charge of the assessment, and he is only a disciple who has been a new beginner for a year, if this stall has a dispute with him, I am afraid that he will really be dealt with strictly.
"Ladies and gentlemen, when I came, it was not yet time for the assessment," Meng yao looked deeply at the stewards,
"The dormitory I live in is too far away, on the top of the mountain near the back mountain, and it is extremely inconvenient to come from that side, so I delayed the work and failed to catch up with the gathering of new disciples."
The disciple's words were true, and he didn't dare to deceive him, after all, the disciple's dormitory was assigned by Steward Zhang.
Zhang Donglai's face sank, and anger flashed in his eyes, but he didn't expect this ugly girl to be smart, not only did she not make a noise, but she told the dormitory.
At first, he didn't like this girl, but he deliberately assigned an abandoned dormitory to her, if he really wanted to investigate carefully, it was he who used his power for personal gain and bullied the new disciples.
Although more or less, their group of stewards will collect
"filial piety"
from their disciples, but this kind of thing is not easy to talk about in the open after all.
