Chapter 37 Preliminary Screening
It is impossible to keep the matter of his cultivation a secret forever. The reason why he is hiding it now is because Liu Feng does not want Du Wangquan to associate his rejuvenation with his improvement in cultivation.
It's easy to understand if you use your brain, you become younger and your cultivation level improves at the same time, this is definitely a great opportunity!
It will make people jealous.
So it’s okay to reveal it, but you have to find a suitable time, and it’s best to come up with a reasonable excuse.
This time, the Three Arts Flower Gate was jointly hosted by Lingbo Sect and Danyin Sect. Lingbo Sect had more male disciples, while Danyin Sect had more female disciples.
Because of this characteristic, and the fact that the two sects are too close, many Taoist couples have been formed.
Those responsible for leading the way and maintaining order on the scene were all young and good-looking disciples from both factions. Some of them were even pairs of Taoist couples, and they were very pleasing to the eye when they stood together.
Soon the agreed start time arrived, and the leaders of the two factions stood up and gave nice speeches, encouraging the participating disciples and focusing on the rewards for this competition.
"This year's rewards seem to be even more than in the past, so generous." Some disciples from other sects became excited after hearing this.
"Indeed, it's almost twice as much as last year!"
"I heard that the Floating Cloud Tower is about to open. Is it in preparation for this?"
"Who knows? We are not the ones who know about this. Only the seniors and masters know this."
"——Time is up, the preliminary screening is about to begin! Please ask the disciples of each skill to go to the corresponding area. After a little preparation, the preliminary screening of the three skills will be carried out simultaneously."
Everyone was excited and it was time to begin!
Because there are so many disciples participating in the competition today. With so many people, not only does the competition take up too much space, but even their food and accommodation for the next few days will be a problem.
Therefore, in order to reduce expenses and speed up the competition, a preliminary screening will be conducted on the first day today. Only disciples who pass the preliminary screening will be eligible to stay until tomorrow.
The difficulty of the initial screening is not too great. Only those with a weak foundation will be eliminated in this round, but——
Don’t even talk about whether the three contestants from the Xianlai Sect have a solid foundation or not. They don’t have any foundation at all!
It took less than two months from the time I studied to the time I took the competition. Looking at others, they have studied for at least ten years. How can I compare?
"What's wrong? I'm so nervous." Du Yue covered his chest and felt like he could hardly breathe.
"Me too." Meng Ling pursed her lips, glanced at a place imperceptibly, and then quickly retracted her eyes.
Hu Jiu didn't say anything and didn't seem very nervous, but his unusual silence had already revealed his true thoughts.
"Just perform normally, don't be nervous." Liu Feng consoled them, "Anyway, no matter what, at least we have sent people to participate. Just treat this as an opportunity to see the world, don't put too much pressure on yourself."
When we came, he said just don't be the last one, but actually he was just joking.
It doesn't matter how the disciples perform.
"Okay, it's almost time, let's go."
"yes."
【Seniors, please relax, you are already excellent! 】
Mo Jiuwei in Chen Lan's arms also shook her arms, as if waving.
For some reason, they were still nervous despite what Uncle Liu said before, but when Mo Jiuwei only said this one sentence, they felt inexplicably relieved.
It seems that I am really excellent and it is impossible for me to be at the bottom.
The three of them breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time, then encouraged each other with their eyes, and walked to the positions corresponding to their skills to compete.
For the three arts of elixir, instrument and talisman, the first thing to be tested during the initial screening is a written test, which involves answering questions.
It is not feasible to start refining pills, weapons and talismans right away because it is too time-consuming and wasteful of crystals.
While answering the questions in silence, Du Yue and the other two gradually calmed down, their heartbeats became smoother, and their moods were no longer so anxious.
They were worried before the performance, but felt calm once they actually went on stage. This is probably why they were able to answer these questions.
The questions contain a lot of basic knowledge related to the skills, and some are technical issues in the production process, and many of them are easy to fall into.
As Du Yue wrote quickly, he shouted in his heart, "Junior sister is awesome!"
Because there were quite a few pitfalls in it, and these were all the mistakes that her junior sister had pointed out when she was watching her making the elixir, so Du Yue remembered them very clearly!
After writing most of the questions, Du Yue was only unsure about one question, and the others were guaranteed to be correct.
Is it because the initial screening this time is particularly simple?
Du Yue raised his head uncertainly and looked around quietly, then he found that half of the disciples had sad faces, and one of them, who looked very young, was even crying in anxiety.
Now she felt more at ease.
It turned out that it wasn’t that the questions were too simple, but that the guidance from my junior sister was too comprehensive!
The same situation also occurred with Hu Jiu and Meng Ling. They originally thought that they would definitely not be able to succeed, but as they kept writing, they felt: It’s a sure thing!
Regardless of anything else, at least they can definitely pass this level.
Liu Feng couldn't see the situation on the field. He stood there feeling a little anxious and worried about them.
"Uncle Master, don't worry. I think their performance should not be bad." Chen Lan said to comfort them.
"Yeah, I also think they are not too bad. They can produce the finished product in just two months. They must be very talented." Yi Xingyun also said.
Even if you haven't eaten pork, you have seen pigs running. Although they don't have any skills, they have heard of a lot of related situations in their lives over the years.
They had often heard people say that skills were difficult to learn, and that it would take at least a decade to see results. However, the three people from their Xianlai Sect were able to independently produce results after only two months of study. This was not the best, but it was not the worst either, right?
"I'm not worried that our Xianlai Sect won't achieve good results. I'm just worried that they won't be able to maintain a stable mentality."
Liu Feng shook his head and sighed, "They are just beginners and don't know their own strengths. If they find themselves far behind others after the competition, they will inevitably be sad and depressed, which will affect their mentality."
Once this self-confidence is hit, they might just give up!
【No, that won’t happen.】
[I watched them improve little by little. Although they were a little inexperienced at the beginning, they improved rapidly and definitely surpassed ordinary people.]
[It’s hard to say what the subsequent competitions will be like, but they will definitely pass this initial screening.]
Mo Jiuwei was very confident and not afraid at all that they would stop here.
The three people who were writing seriously with their heads down suddenly had shaking hands and almost wrote the words wrong.
They looked up in astonishment and looked behind them, their faces filled with disbelief—
No way! They were quite far away from Uncle Liu. How could they hear Junior Sister's voice from such a distance?
