After Ying Changfeng and Lin Hai finished their discussion, they returned to the main hall. The elders decided whether to fight or not, but the question of who would be Xiang Sheng's master remained vacant, just like Xiang Jianjue.
This incident did not affect Xiang Sheng. The next day, she received the disciple token and the sect rules book personally delivered by the fifth elder, and was arranged to learn reading under the sect teacher.
This matter was a complete waste of time for Xiang Sheng, but since she had decided to keep a low profile, she never did anything to attract attention. She stayed in the school, leaving early and returning late every day, pretending to be studying hard.
In fact, she only devoted a little of her attention to the classroom, and the rest of her mind was on cultivation.
It was difficult to practice in the academy, but it gave her some free time to figure out what the ice sword move she had used in front of Luo Qingyun was.
Ice spiritual root.
Ever since she struggled to suppress that wisp of ice energy during the spiritual root test, she had been wondering if it was an ice spiritual root.
As the true energy in her body gradually transformed into stable ice-type true energy over the past two days, she was completely certain that her spiritual roots had indeed changed.
This slight change occurred after she practiced the "Ancestral Seal".
Before she practiced the "Ancestral Seal", she had indeed not yet cultivated her true essence, but at that time she did not sense any trace of ice aura in her body.
Rather than saying that Luo Qingyun encountered danger, which caused her potential to unleash and stimulate the Ice Spirit Root, it would be better to say that the "Ancestral Seal" tapped into the potential of this body, causing the potential of the Ice Spirit Root to reach a critical point, giving it the opportunity to explode in one fell swoop.
This is the fourth level of ancestral seal.
If she goes deeper in the future, will her spiritual roots change again?
Xiang Sheng couldn't help but think that Si Wu Li must know about this, but it was a pity that she couldn't see him now.
"Luo Sheng!"
The old teacher on the podium gave a soft shout and pointed at the contents of the stone tablet behind him, "Explain the meaning of this passage."
Xiang Sheng immediately stood up, cleared his throat, and answered clearly, his answer was almost word for word exactly the same as what the old man said.
The old man couldn't find any evidence to prove his point, so he could only say, "Very good, sit down."
After class, the children dispersed, and Xiang Sheng was no exception. She was anxious to go back and continue studying her own spiritual roots.
The old man looked at Xiang Sheng's departing back and couldn't help but sigh.
"What's the matter? It's rare to see you sighing. Is there a student that our Great Elder can't teach?"
Hearing the voice, the Great Elder turned around and saw Ying Changfeng, and immediately smiled and said, "Why are you here, kid? Aren't you busy with things in the sect?"
"Come and take a break here."
Ying Changfeng pulled out a chair and sat down, saying, "You haven't answered me yet."
"Isn't it just the little thorn you found?"
The Great Elder snorted coldly and sat down.
Ying Changfeng immediately laughed and asked, "What did that Jian Jue brat do again?"
"Jian Jue is already a 15-year-old boy, why should I care about him?"
The Great Elder waved his hand and replied, "It's Luo Sheng."
"Luo Sheng?"
Ying Changfeng was genuinely surprised this time. "I heard several elders praise that child for being well-behaved and sweet-talking. How come he's become a thorn in your side?"
"That girl is very well behaved and learns things quickly."
The Great Elder thought about what had just happened and couldn't help but sigh again. "But every time she comes to class, I always feel like that girl isn't listening at all. But when it comes to testing her on what she's taught in class, she can answer flawlessly. It really... makes me so angry!"
Ying Changfeng couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. "Great Elder, is this what you're angry about? Maybe the little girl is talented and can do two things at once."
The Great Elder nodded thoughtfully. "You're right. Extraordinary people should be treated with extraordinary care. I'll give her a test right away. If she passes, this literacy class can end early."
"Then I won't bother you from teaching our new generation of geniuses, Elder."
Ying Changfeng stood up, patted his sleeves, and smiled brightly: "I'll see you next time."
"Take it easy, kid."
The elder spoke in a deeper voice, "No one in the sect blames you for what happened to your master back then. Don't take it all on yourself. The situation of the Wanjian Sect is much better than it was back then, but its foundation is shallow and cannot withstand the storm."
The new generation of disciples are unable to shoulder the responsibility, and the sect still relies on you to hold on. Consult with us when encountering problems, and be cautious in everything. Do you understand?"
Ying Changfeng turned around and smiled, "Great Elder, don't you understand my temper? Don't worry, I can hold on."
After saying that, Ying Changfeng waved his hand and left.
The Great Elder stared at him as he left and sighed.
If the Tianqing Pavilion had not caused trouble a hundred years ago and Sheng Ji was still alive, the Underworld might not have been so easily invaded.
Unfortunately, there is no going back.
…
On this day, in front of the Wanjianmen Sutra Pavilion.
Xiang Sheng stood among a group of children aged fourteen or fifteen, appearing exceptionally petite, attracting the frequent glances of the surrounding teenagers.
Xiang Sheng looked straight ahead at the main entrance of the Sutra Repository with a calm gaze.
After learning to read and write among a bunch of young people for half a month, the old teacher finally freed her with a test and arranged her into a more elderly team in advance so that she could start to read the sect's classics.
This step is to allow the sect's disciples to establish their initial understanding of the world of cultivation.
Soon, the elder opened the door and the children rushed in.
"I understand. You must memorize every book on this shelf. If you can pass the test in three months, you can officially learn the way of cultivation. If you fail, you can only continue to waste your time here. Do you understand?"
“Here!”
The children responded in unison with clear voices, and then immediately separated and picked up the books on the bookshelf to memorize them.
