Chapter 9: Qi Zi Shou Wu (Part 1) Seeking Recommendations for a Top Ranking!

  War for peace.

  After that battle, no one came to provoke Sun Li again, and he got a peaceful cultivation environment as he wished.

  The six disciples who were defeated by him, invaded by that terrible killing intent into their consciousness, now seeing Sun Li all detoured. The most serious is naturally the female disciple who was the first to bear the brunt, as soon as she saw Sun Li, her face turned pale unconsciously, and her fingers were tightly clasped.

  But it didn't bring Sun Li a good reputation, instead, he became the first person on the "Evil List" among the new students in this year's book academy.

  The disciples may react a bit slowly, but after a few days, everyone will come to their senses: even if Sun Li can fight and kill, what's the point? At most, it's just maintaining the current situation, and not being bullied in the short term.

  Even Sun Li's female disciple, who had a deep-seated fear of him, understood in her heart that after just one or two years, the differences in everyone's natural talent would be revealed and would become more and more apparent.

  Sun Li would be able to fight again, and when the time came, he would cast a spell that would make him disappear into thin air.

  But for now, everyone is tolerating him temporarily.

  ……

  Recently, Sun Li has felt that his cultivation has made steady progress. The starlight in the Yintang acupoint is getting brighter and brighter, and when the spiritual yuan runs inside his body, it also feels thicker than a big thumb.

  In the secular martial arts world, this is absolutely an unimaginable strong move. However, in the Su Bao Mountain, Sun Li himself was also clear that it would be barely considered a mid-to-lower level move at best.

  Although he hasn't compared with others, I think his own inference should be correct.

  As for Sun Lixiu's cultivation speed, Wu Yao and others never evaluated it.

  In the blink of an eye, more than ten days have passed. This batch of disciples has been in the door for nearly a month. The disciples are getting nervous, from Class A to Class D, they are about to face the first test of the seven entrance exams.

  In just over ten days, Tian Zongzi Bao Liu Hui Gen Tian Dong successfully broke through the boundary, relying on a basic method "Tian He Jue", and successfully promoted to the "Ordinary Person Realm". After 21 days of cultivation, he left the Mediocre Person Realm and entered the Ordinary Person Realm, also setting a new record for the fastest speed of a new disciple in Subao Mountain!

  Qin Tianjian was also extraordinary, withstanding the immense pressure, and successfully breaking through just a day later, advancing to the Mortal Realm.

  These two were originally the future hopes of Subo Mountain, and under the accumulation of many resources, it is not unexpected to have such achievements, but also exciting the entire Subo Mountain.

  The multitude of beings are just ordinary people, and only when they have entered the mortal realm can they be said to have truly begun their cultivation. Only after passing through the threshold of the mortal realm and entering the realm of the Dao can one be considered a true cultivator.

  Ordinary person, Daoist, virtuous person, true person, ultimate person, sage, immortal, seven great realms. Within each realm, there are also seven levels.

  Tianying Dong and Qintian Zhǎn are now both in the first layer of the Mortal Realm. Breaking through before the Seven Exams is greatly beneficial for both of them.

  Almost all the new disciples were admiring and discussing the achievements of those two geniuses, while Sun Li buried his head in diligent practice - other people's achievements had nothing to do with him. Besides, the Great Way was long and winding, and being ahead by just one step at the beginning didn't mean anything worth envying.

  After Qin Tian's breakthrough, the entire academy was quiet for five days. It was as if they had been accumulating energy and then suddenly released it all at once - on the sixth day, three A-class disciples with similar aptitudes actually broke through into the Mortal Realm on the same day!

  In the following days, several disciples made breakthroughs one after another. A total of nine people entered the Mortal Realm before the seventh exam.

  Among these nine people, eight of them came from Class A, and only one was from Class B.

  First-class disciples receive one Jiuyi Dan and ten pieces of Ling Stone every month, while second-class disciples receive one Jiuyi Dan and eight pieces of Ling Stone. However, the nine who broke through consumed far more resources than that.

  Tian Dong and Qin Tian didn't need to be mentioned, their master secretly gave them elixirs and spirit stones, probably more than all the other disciples combined.

  The other breakthrough disciples in Class A also had some background, and their families had prepared a large amount of spiritual stones before they entered the sect. Even that disciple from Class B was closely related to Chong Zhong, and it's unknown what kind of deal they made, but it's said that Chong Zhong once gave him three 9th-grade Spirit Dan pills!

  It turns out that in the Cultivation Realm, even geniuses need to accumulate endless resources to truly become strong.

  Among the various envious and jealous emotions of the remaining disciples, the seventh test finally arrived.

  The first thing is to practice making tools.

  All the disciples of the four classes were concentrated in that large classroom on the first day, and when the instructor came to teach, there was no warning. With a wave of his hand, the test papers flew through the air, with one sheet landing right in front of each person!

  Sun Li had a brush stem in his mouth, and he knew all the questions on it, but the problem was that what he knew was given to him by Wu Yao, Sun Li estimated that at least half of them were different from the answers taught by the device.

  Wu Yao was furious: "No wonder the success rate of refining artifacts and alchemy in the cultivation world is so low now. Even basic common sense is wrong, how can you possibly refine a good artifact?"

  Sun Li had no choice but to grit his teeth and answer. He really couldn't remember how the device had lectured him, so he simply did it according to what he knew.

  He answered quickly, and was actually the first to finish among all the disciples of this generation. Sun Li didn't even bother to check, stood up and said: "Submit your papers!"

  The whole room was shocked, and when everyone turned around to see that it was Sun Li, they suddenly all had a look of "it's nothing" on their faces, and each returned to doing their own homework.

  After Sun Li left, the instructor took his paper and read it for less than a short while before tossing it aside: "Utter rubbish!"

  The disciples below secretly smiled in their hearts.

  Another meal's time passed and Tian Yingdong and Qin Tianjian almost simultaneously stood up: "Submit!"

  Both of them were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and their eyes seemed to spark electricity.

  The equipment instructor smiled and said: "Well, bring everything up."

  He took a look at both of their papers and nodded in approval: "Different is different!"

  This is naturally compared with Sun Li.

  Next is the Yu Fu exam, Sun Li still repeated the process of the previous session.

  He didn't perform well in either of these two exams and probably ranked outside the top 100.

  The disciples of Ding's class are not at a disadvantage in these two subjects, because the vast majority are basic knowledge, and they can pass by simply memorizing. Only the last few questions test the disciples' understanding and extension ability, which will pull open the scores.

  Among all disciples, even those who memorized and recited knowledge by rote got more than half of it wrong. Only Sun Li, the first on the "Evil List", was correct.

  Chong Zhong had already made it clear that the content of the Dan Dao exam was to plant a single stem of Seven Sons First Wu. This session of disciples were all like this. It's just that Chong Zhong was more meticulous when selecting seeds for other classes, and the other three classes were already one step ahead of Ding's class in terms of innate abilities.

  Chong Zhong gave advance notice to everyone, asking each person to bring their own seven-son He Shou Wu, and he would evaluate them on the spot.

  Sun Li was carrying his own pot out the door when he ran into Lu Datong and the other two.

  Su Lan had been elusive since being assigned to the third-rate class, always managing to avoid the other three people in the courtyard and not showing his face. Today, for some reason, he was actually walking with Lu Da Tong and Jiang Shi Yun.

  Everyone held their own pots, and the seven-son first Wu of Lu Daitong and Su Lan had the best growth, with a height of more than half a person, and the leaves were emerald green, like jade carvings made by an emperor.

  Jiang Shiyu was somewhat depressed, as he now lagged behind Su Lan in all aspects, and even the Seven Sons First Wisteria he cultivated couldn't compare to his opponent's.

  Su Lan took a look at Sun Li's seven-son ginseng, which had short and small heads, and some of the veins on the leaves were black. Su Lan frowned and couldn't help but scold Sun Li: "Sun Li, you're being a bit too careless, aren't you?"

  "We four were once beginners together, and our qualifications were all average. But look at others, including Lu Daitong, they are all working very hard. Look at Lu's Qi Zi Shou Wu, and then look at yours. We can't easily have such an opportunity. You don't want to be swept out by Su Bao Shan after seven months, do you?"

  Jiang Shiyin frowned, he was not used to hearing such a tone from the old steward Su Lan: "How do you know that Sun Li didn't put his heart into it? Besides, what business is it of yours to lecture him?"

  "Did he make an effort?" Su Lan sneered: "If he had made an effort, wouldn't the first two subjects have been ranked last instead of being at the bottom?"

  Jiang Shiyuan couldn't find an excuse to refute for a moment, and he actually wanted to see Sun Li and Su Lan stand up. But unexpectedly, Sun Li suddenly lost his temper, only looked at Su Lan, smiled and said nothing.

  But this expression made Su Lan angry, in his opinion, he took the initiative to say these things to Sun Li, that was to help him. Sun Li didn't appreciate it, and it really wasn't possible to make a good impression on him.

  He got angry and stopped talking. The four of them walked into the academy in an awkward atmosphere.

  Many disciples have arrived and lined up in a long dragon shape on the martial arts field. Those who came earlier took their own Seven Sons First Wugong to ask Chong Zhong for inspection and evaluation. This kind of examination, there is no way to cheat.

  Sun Li and four others lined up at the end of the queue. Lu Da Tong stood in front of Sun Li, looking particularly expectant.

  Because at a glance, Lu Daitong's Qi Zi Shou Wu can also be considered to have a good sales appearance. If luck is on their side, they might even make it into the top ten. Not seeking too high of a ranking, as long as they can get tenth place, Lu Daitong will be able to hold his head up high with pride.

  Lu Datong kept turning back to Sun Li and said, "Sun Li, how's my Qi Zi Shou Wu? Can you help me calculate which one I'll get? If I calculate it myself, I'm afraid I'll be biased..."

  Sun Li bitterly smiled: "How is this counted? I said it but it's useless."

  Lu Datong sighed: "So it is."

  But in a moment, he turned around and said to Sun Li: "You say I can enter the top ten? If I entered the top ten, would I be able to advance to Class C..."

  Lu Daitong's qualifications are not good, but he has a heart to develop in Dan Dao, so this time the seven sons of Shouwu cultivation, he really put in a lot of effort.

  The queue in front was getting shorter and shorter, when suddenly a commotion broke out. Lu Datong stretched his neck to take a look, then came back and whispered to Sun Li: "It's Qin Tianjian's turn."

  Sun Li understood.

  Qin Tianzhan placed his own ceramic pot on the table in front of Chong Zhong and bowed slightly: "Please, I invite your critique."

  It's not just the people under Qin Tianzhan who are paying attention, but also the people behind Tian Yingdong.

  Chong Zhong smiled slightly and said with a gentle attitude: "Alright, wait for a moment."

  He reached out and wiped the edge of the tile pot, and the seven-son first Wusun flew out of the tile pot with its roots and soil. Chong Zhong made another gesture, and from the water spirit in the air, a fine stream of water condensed, carefully washing away the mud on the roots.

  The disciples around them couldn't help but feel a little jealous in their hearts: Is this the treatment Qin Tianjian and Tian Yingdong receive? The people before, were all casually brushing off the dirt.

  After cleaning up, the root of Qi Zi Shou Wu was exposed. Generally, a month's time for a disciple to plant Qi Zi Shou Wu would be enough to grow a fist-sized tuber, but Qin Tianzhan's had already grown into a body with four limbs, only the head part seemed a bit small.

  (It's almost a new week, and in the afternoon, I relied on the recommended position after becoming a member, and the click-through rate soared, but my wish to rush up the new book chart was dashed. Sigh, never mind, thinking about it doesn't make sense either. This half-day, the collection has been rising slowly, to be honest, it's greatly exceeded my expectations.

  I don't know why I've been feeling drowsy all day, and I wanted to sleep early. In a daze, it wasn't until 10 o'clock that I suddenly reacted, realizing that tonight was the night to rush up the chart. I had to force myself to stay awake, my eyelids were almost closing, so I'm begging everyone for recommendation votes to help me get on the chart. There should be another chapter after 12 o'clock, and once it's released, I'll go to sleep, I'm dead tired...)
