Chapter 136 Disappointment
Zheng Fa looked at these uninvited lecturers and knew that they wanted to see what he was like.
He had anticipated this kind of thing - the news that Senior Sister Zhang intended for him to take over the Talisman Pavilion had already spread.
This decision is actually very important.
In the Jiushan Sect, the Talisman Pavilion, the Discipline Hall and the General Affairs Pavilion can be regarded as the three important places. By analogy, they are probably the finance department, law enforcement department and education department.
The person in charge of the Discipline Hall is Yuanying Master Pang.
The General Affairs Pavilion is under the charge of Senior Sister Zhang. In the Jiushan Sect, she is comparable to a Nascent Soul. At least, no one would deny that she is the number one person below the Nascent Soul.
Zheng Fa, who is almost on par with them in terms of position:
It's just a place to practice Qi!
With such a huge gap in strength, it is impossible for these lecturers not to think too much.
Be it the head disciple or the support from Senior Sister Zhang.
It is really impossible to dispel everyone's doubts.
What puzzled Zheng Fa was that among these lecturers, there were more people from Master Pang's lineage, but fewer from Senior Sister Zhang's lineage.
For example, he didn’t see Senior Brother Zhuang who came to teach him for the first time this time.
Not only Senior Brother Zhuang, he also came twice afterwards. The two senior brothers who gave him lessons were not seen today either.
Not long after, new students came to attend the class.
At the beginning, all the people who came were new disciples from Senior Sister Zhang's lineage.
Later, Zheng Fa saw some furtive figures coming in with their heads down.
Zheng Fa also knew these people. They were all new disciples who came from the same ship, but they just became disciples of Uncle Pang.
Shouldn't this group of people go to Uncle Pang's class?
There was a burst of voices coming from the door, one of which sounded quite familiar to Zheng Fa:
"Brother Zhou, if the brothers knew that someone from our lineage was listening to Brother Zheng's lecture, wouldn't they blame us?"
"It's okay! I'm telling you, Senior Brother Zheng has prepared something good!"
"But... isn't this betraying your own people?"
"Don't worry, Master knows this too! As long as we keep a low profile and don't do this under the eyes of our senior brothers, they won't mind too much..."
As soon as Zhou Qianyuan stepped into the classroom, he stopped.
In the classroom, several senior brothers from Master Pang’s lineage were looking at him silently.
Behind him, the fellow apprentice who was pulled over by him looked pale and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Zhou, why do I feel like... we just happened to run into you, the fellow apprentices?"
Zhou Qianyuan's body stiffened. He glanced at several senior brothers who had unfriendly expressions, then shrank his neck and found a seat.
Zheng Fa understood it now:
Maybe it was to play a mock trial, or maybe it was to make sure his first class didn't become a dull one.
Zhou Qianyuan probably tried his best to attract new users for him...
Looking at the new disciples of Uncle Pang’s lineage, they were sitting in the classroom like quails, not daring to move.
Zheng Fa felt a little sympathetic.
As the classroom gradually filled up, Zheng Fa coughed and said, "Some people here don't know me, and some do."
The world before the eyes of everyone present was changing like a kaleidoscope of light, and finally stopped in a dark canyon.
"So, I have prepared a new way of teaching for everyone, to be used as a self-introduction." In the darkness, Zheng Fa's voice seemed to come from the air: "I call it "The Great Way Fights for Immortality"."
In the eyes of those Foundation Establishment lecturers, a halo faintly appeared under the feet of those Qi Refining disciples.
The aperture is divided into red and blue.
"Attention, disciples. You will be randomly divided into two teams. Please identify your friends and enemies based on the color of the light rings under your feet."
"In "Da Dao Zheng Xian", you can own your cultivation, spiritual talismans and magic weapons."
"You have two ways to win. First, kill everyone on the other team. Second, destroy the sign in the other team's base."
“Death in The Great Dao of Immortality won’t really kill you, but your soul will be miserable for a day or two.”
"The Great Way to Immortality" is an improved simulation trial newly developed by the leader.
For one thing, he added a few more maps.
On the other hand, the cost has been reduced, and now only a dozen yellow-grade talismans are needed.
Of course, the highest level of yellow-grade talismans can only simulate the Qi Refining Stage.
The reason why the previous simulation trials were expensive was because they had to conceal the consciousness of the head or Senior Sister Zhang, and also simulate their cultivation.
The requirements for talismans are naturally high.
But there is no such requirement in "The Great Way to Immortality", and Zheng Fa wants to teach disciples in the Qi Refining Stage.
As for the mechanism, Zheng Fa actually didn't make many changes.
The first point is the team division mechanism, which is evenly divided into two teams, red and blue, but there is no limit on the number of people in each team - this is because Zheng Fa has not yet figured out how many people are best to form a team in the world of immortal cultivation.
This kind of thing can't be thought of on the spur of the moment, it can only be slowly experimented with in future trials.
"The Great Way to Immortality" is only a preliminary version after all, so it can be modified later.
Another point is that Zheng Fa divides the game winning and losing into two modes.
Stronghold Mode and Death Mode.
To put it simply, if one team is completely killed or their tower is pushed, they lose.
As for the weakness of the soul after death, he deliberately asked the head master to add it - only in this way can the game be more realistic, and it can also prevent these disciples from really going to the battlefield and not cherishing their own lives.
The only ones who are experiencing "The Great Way to Immortality" this time are the Qi Refining disciples present here.
As for those lecturers in the foundation-building stage, just like Zheng Fa, they could only watch from the sidelines.
In their perspective—
Most of the new disciples who had just been pulled into the trial were a little panicked.
If it weren't for Zheng Fa's previous reminder, these disciples would probably run around like headless flies.
Even with Zheng Fa's tips, this group of people didn't perform very well.
Zheng Fa saw a disciple running around in the woods in a swaggering manner, the leaves rustling under his feet, and he had no intention of hiding at all.
Sure enough, the next moment, a fire snake attacked him from behind.
Burned him to ashes.
What made Zheng Fa frown even more was that some disciples who were clearly in the same team did not cooperate at all, and the disciples of the two lines often fought on their own.
For example, when two disciples from Senior Sister Zhang's lineage met a lone disciple from another lineage, they would just throw a talisman at the disciple without thinking twice.
These three people were originally on the red team, but for unknown reasons they started fighting among themselves.
The blue team disciples who were squatting nearby took advantage of the opportunity and caught all three of them in one fell swoop.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
In this chaos, most of the disciples were quickly killed and eliminated.
But there was one team that caught Zheng Fa's eye.
Zhou Qianyuan and his two disciples hid in a cave in the canyon.
One of these two people is from Uncle Pang’s lineage, and the other is from Sister Zhang’s lineage. Both are new disciples.
Among the three, Zhou Qianyuan has the highest strength - the fifth level of Qi training, so the other two listen to Zhou Qianyuan's command.
"In addition to us new disciples, some old disciples also participated in the "Great Dao Contest of Immortality" this time." Zhou Qianyuan looked at the chaos outside and said, "We have only been practicing for a short time, and our cultivation is not as good as those old disciples. We can't fight head-on."
The other two nodded, quite convinced.
"I have been taught by Master, and I have also heard Senior Sister Zhang and Senior Brother Zheng discuss talismans. In fact, our two lineages each have their own advantages." Zhou Qianyuan pondered and said, "Disciples from Senior Sister Zhang's lineage are good at Yuan Fu, and their talisman techniques are powerful and effective."
"And our lineage is good at observing opportunities and seizing the enemy's tracks and weaknesses."
"So, this is what I think..."
Zhou Qianyuan whispered, "Let's go in stealth and find the enemy's base directly."
"Junior brother, you will be responsible for observation along the way." He said to his junior brother from the same lineage.
"And this Junior Brother, you should store up your spiritual power first, and then we will work together to smash the opponent's sign."
After Zhou Qianyuan finished speaking, the other two thought about it and nodded, agreeing with his plan.
…
Zheng Fa looked at Zhou Qianyuan's performance and couldn't help but feel relieved - although Zhou Qianyuan's plan was rudimentary, at least he really treated everyone equally and wanted to utilize the respective advantages of the two veins.
Zheng Fa also summed up the differences between Uncle Pang's lineage and Sister Zhang's lineage in his mind.
Uncle Pang’s lineage relies on the Dongxu Spirit Eye, which is actually very suitable for assistance.
Observing the enemy situation is also good.
It would be good to seize the opportunity to set a healing talisman on yourself.
Simply put, very suitable for being a medic and scout.
Their weakness is that, because they do not have a deep attainment in Yuan Fu, the power of their talismans is often not strong enough, making it difficult to kill with one strike.
In this regard, the disciples of Senior Sister Zhang's lineage are much better.
Those lecturers in the foundation-building stage were staring at the illusion of "The Great Way to Immortality" and were also discussing it among themselves - no, they were angrily scolding their own students.
"How stupid! You don't even know how to use the Golden Armor Talisman!"
"Are you blind? You can't see the person squatting next to you!"
"No, I spent a whole day teaching you this Shadow-Following Talisman, and you're giving it all back to me?"
"Throw the fire-controlling talisman! Are you stupid?"
This group of people were originally sitting, but now they all stood up, rolling up their sleeves and wishing they could go on stage themselves.
…
"The Great Way to Immortality" ended very quickly.
As expected, Zhou Qianyuan's three men succeeded in stealing the chicken.
After the illusion was lifted, most of the disciples still had excited expressions on their faces.
"What do you think of my self-introduction?"
Zheng Fa said with a smile.
"Brother Zheng, I want to play again!"
"You should have been our lecturer a long time ago..."
"Brother, if I transfer to Sister Zhang's lineage, will you accept me?"
Seeing these disciples' enthusiastic responses, Zheng Fa gradually put away his smile and said, "But I am very disappointed."
“…”
"I'm not disappointed because you guys have been learning talismans for so long but you don't even know how to draw the most basic talismans when you're in battle. The Jiushan Sect has been peaceful for a long time. I don't blame you for not being good at fighting."
"I'm not disappointed because you only know how to charge at the enemy and don't think about how to win the fight with your brain. Junior Brother Zhou does a great job in this regard."
"What disappoints me is that you are disciples of the same sect, but when you go to the battlefield, you cannot trust and cooperate with each other, and you even kill each other!"
“I’m very disappointed with this!”
In the classroom, the group of Foundation Establishment lecturers who had originally wanted to see Zheng Facheng looked at each other with some shame on their faces, as if they felt they should not have come.
