Barbara and Fern, who have been practicing hard, have made great progress after a period of hard training. It is time for another exam, and this time it is a very formal assessment, and the master comes to supervise.
There was still a week left before the assessment. Fern and Barbara were a little nervous when they heard the news. This assessment was different from the ones they organized, where they could handle the assessment without any pressure. This time, it was the Master himself who was assessing...
Barbara was a little nervous. Although she had made a lot of progress during this period, compared with her previous self, she had indeed made a lot of progress. However, if she were compared with the disciples of the same sect, she would probably be easily outdone.
Seeing Fern's serious and calm appearance, Barbara couldn't understand why her brother could be so calm...
Barbara couldn't help but ask, "Brother, aren't you nervous?"
Fern said calmly, "Nervous, but being too nervous will only affect your assessment."
After hearing what Fern said, Barbara instantly felt that her brother had such a broad mind that she could not help but admire him.
Barbara looked at Fern and said, "I heard that the master is personally testing me this time!" Then she stared at Fern with eyes wide open...
Fern still replied calmly: "I know that. It is precisely because this is a test from the master that we must perform well. We cannot slack off at all."
After hearing what Fern said, Barbara felt dizzy. She really didn't want to accept this fact. She also had no confidence in her own abilities. She was unsure of herself in her heart.
Barbara had no choice but to accept the reality and kept practicing under Fern's guidance, spending every day in hardship...
Time flies so fast. There are still three days left before the assessment. It is almost here, but Barbara feels that there is not enough time and she is not ready yet.
Fern practiced his magic diligently, not afraid of hardship or fatigue, and practiced overtime. Fern wanted to be recognized by his master, so he practiced very hard, hoping to get a good result on the day of the assessment.
Fern always believed that as long as he worked hard and practiced harder, he would definitely get good results.
Barbara has been feeling really tired these past few days. She feels like she can't keep up with the physical strength, and practicing overtime like this is really too much for her.
But Barbara didn't say it out loud. Instead, she accepted it silently. Although she felt a little unhappy, she still insisted on practicing.
Fern has influenced Barbara a lot in these days, causing her to change a lot.
Barbara looked at Fern with an unhappy look and said, "How are you feeling recently?" Then she stared at Fern stupidly with her curious eyes wide open.
Fern glanced at Barbara and said, "Not bad. I feel like I've made a lot of progress."
Barbara looked at the calm Fern and thought it was incredible that her brother could remain so patient.
Fern also wanted to know how Barbara was preparing for this test. Fern looked at Barbara and asked, "How do you feel about the practice these days?"
Barbara avoided looking directly into Fern's eyes and stammered, "I... I feel OK." Her hands kept touching her face, her eyes wandering...
When Fern saw Barbara's performance, she felt that it must be because she was not prepared.
Fern saw what Barbara was thinking and said with a smile, "How about we have a competition first?"
Barbara looked at the confident Fern with a helpless look on her face, not knowing whether she should agree or not.
Barbara was struggling with a very unpleasant expression. Fern seemed to understand what Barbara meant, and soon Fern said, "How about this, we both give each other a question and reveal the answer on the day of the formal assessment."
Barbara heard what Fern said and quickly replied, "Yeah, yeah! I think that's good."
After Barbara returned to her dormitory, she wanted to get a good grade in this assessment, but thinking about her current level, she really didn't know what the situation would be like on the day of the assessment.
Barbara was still fantasizing about how great it would be if she performed exceptionally well on the day of the assessment! Barbara's optimistic attitude was truly admirable...
Barbara finally came back to her senses from her delusion and thought of some practical ideas, that is, in the following period of time, she should practice more and work twice as hard as ordinary people to gain more.
Whenever Barbara practiced hard, she always complained about unfairness. Why did she put in a lot of effort but gained less than others?
Barbara went to her brother to ask why her hard work was not proportional to her rewards. Fern only answered Barbara with two short words: "Be attentive."
Barbara looked at Fern's expression and thought that Fern was indeed very optimistic and positive recently.
Barbara carefully memorized the word "care" and whenever she was confused and complaining, she would think of Fern's words.
In the following practice time, Barbara would think about what Fern said before starting to practice.
After a day of trying, Barbara really found that doing it well sounds easy, but it is very difficult to do it.
Being attentive is not just about saying it, but about truly feeling it, thinking about it, and studying it...
When you really do everything with your heart, it will be easy and the rewards will far exceed your imagination. If you do things with your heart, the rewards will be greatly increased.
Barbara did not give up and continued to treat the remaining two days according to Fern's method.
Watching the time passing by, Barbara began to get anxious, but Fern seemed very calm. She responded to everything that happened calmly and without arrogance or impatience. So much hardship was hidden behind her seemingly calm appearance.
The reason why I can remain calm in the face of difficulties now is that I have accumulated experience and tempered my will through what I see and hear in daily life.
Barbara envied Fern even more for his calmness now, who could adjust his state well, be orderly and face things calmly.
Barbara thought that one day she would become what she wanted to be, but the journey was not easy. Only by experiencing it, trying it, and feeling it herself could she have that spirit.
There is still one day left before the assessment. Every disciple of the sect is working hard for their own assessment results. They are still persisting in hard training and striving for their own assessment results.
Barbara and Fern were the same. They had put in a lot of effort for this assessment. Fern was looking forward to the results, but Barbara was very nervous. She always felt that she was not ready. It was about to begin...
Fern was still quite nervous. After all, he started learning here later than other disciples, and his basic skills were not as solid as other disciples. He felt a little stressed.
The formal test will begin tomorrow. During the intense practice the day before, the master came to visit the disciples who will be taking the test tomorrow.
Watching everyone working hard and diligently in training, the master felt very pleased. Although the master did not say it, Fern could still feel it from the master's facial expression.
After the master took a general look at the situation, his personal bodyguard gathered all the disciples together and the master began to speak.
The master said meaningfully: "I want to take up your precious time. I know you are all undergoing intensive training. I just want to finish today's content with a few brief sentences."
The master looked at the disciples' faces and saw beads of sweat on them. He knew at a glance that everyone was practicing intensely.
When seeing Fern and Barbara, the master's eyes showed certainty that his decision was not wrong, and judging from the situation, he would not let the master down.
The master said amiably, "The formal assessment will begin tomorrow. I hope everyone can treat it with a peaceful attitude. This is just a perfect explanation for the practice during this period. Find out your own shortcomings and become a better self."
After the master finished speaking, the disciples' eyes became more determined. They must perform well in tomorrow's assessment and will never disappoint the master's expectations.
The master then said, "I know you have all worked hard. Results are important, but they are not the standard for judging a person. As long as you work hard and do everything with your heart, even if the results are not as good as you expected, at least you will not regret it. I believe you will become what you imagine. Come on!"
Barbara was deeply touched by Master’s speech. She realized how important it is to be attentive. No matter what happens, she should face it with care and always maintain a good attitude.
Fern often mentioned these in daily training, and Barbara had been influenced to some extent by what she heard and saw. Through the master's speech this time, her understanding of the importance of using the heart had become even deeper.
After the master left, the disciples began their intensive practice again. Everyone hoped to achieve excellent results on the day of the assessment.
Dinner time is coming soon. Looking at the disciples who are practicing hard and still persisting, the master is very excited. It is also his honor to have such a group of hardworking disciples!
If the master hadn't personally called everyone to eat, we would probably have practiced until very late.
The master told them, "Everyone must rest well tonight to prepare for tomorrow's test. You must be fully rested!"
The disciples replied in unison: "Got it, we will definitely keep it in our hearts!"
