Ding ding ding…
The bells rang out in the square in front of the main temple.
The expressions of the monks sitting in front of more than thirty desks were not very good.
Some people frowned, some had gloomy faces, and some trembled physically and mentally after hearing the bell.
This is because new information has been conveyed to their minds - the first round of the palace examination is over, and all monks have finished answering questions. Those who violate the rules will be disqualified from the next palace examination.
So, the monks all had bitter faces and reluctantly put down the jade slips in their hands.
“It’s over!”
"I haven't finished answering yet."
"Why does time go by so fast?!"
"I tried my best to answer all the questions. Even though I know they are wrong, it's better to answer them than not to answer them, right? Should I be given some encouragement points?"
The monks all had similar thoughts, they secretly prayed that they could pass the test smoothly this time.
This was about the position of the Palace Master of Lava Fairy Palace. They were all the best who had infiltrated the Fairy Palace, so naturally they had ambitions for it. No one wanted to be eliminated in the first round.
The information continued to be conveyed to everyone, asking the monks to wait for a moment, and then the papers would be marked and the results would be known immediately.
Therefore, the monks in the square took advantage of this time to communicate with each other and ask each other the answers to various questions.
Zhu Xuanji was alone, lost in thought.
At this time, Shu Zhongjun took the initiative to walk towards him: "Master Zhu."
The Master of the Book smiled and asked, "Do you think that the Mirror Table Spiritual Communication Technique and the Devil-stained Blood Tendon Technique, which appear frequently in the jade slips, should form a set with the Five Elements Qi Law Technique? Are they the three supreme methods of the Lava Immortal Palace, the most precious treasures passed down in the Lava Immortal Palace?"
Zhu Xuanji was thinking about this question. He looked up when he heard the voice and said frankly, "I was just thinking about the few words about these two skills in the test questions. I think they are very compatible."
"However, if we really want to confirm it, we have to find a cultivator like City Lord Mengkui to make a calculation."
The book's master nodded and said, "I wonder if the magic manual in Lord Zhu's hand could be sold?"
This is the real purpose of the book.
In the chaos of the golden elixir, the magic scripture appeared. Although it was finally revealed to be a fake, it was still three-tenths real. After all, Ning Zhuo had really released the magic blood-stained tendon skill in order to gain the trust of everyone.
As long as the Jindan cultivators who participated in the melee had obtained the true scriptures, they all knew more or less the contents of the first few levels of the Demonic Blood-stained Tendon Technique.
But at that time, Shu Zhongjun did not participate.
Although he wanted to, he belonged to Quanshulou, a world-renowned neutral force that could not get involved in local disputes at will.
Therefore, the person in the book knew nothing about the "Devil Blood-stained Tendon Technique".
He wanted to buy it from Zhu Xuanji, but was immediately rejected by the latter.
If it were before the first palace examination, Zhu Xuanji might have been impressed by the high price offered by the man in the book and sold some of the skills he knew.
But now, he had just finished the first round of jade slips test papers for the palace examination.
Zhu Xuanji used some knowledge of the Demonic Blood Tendon Technique to answer the questions.
This made him more certain of the value of the Devil Blood-stained Muscle Technique. He would never sell it out during the critical period of the palace examination!
Shu Zhongjun sighed and could only say goodbye to Zhu Xuanji and go to look for other breakthroughs such as the Zheng family and the Zhou family.
Looking at the departing figure of Shu Zhongjun, Zhu Xuanji's eyes were solemn.
Currently on the ranking list, Shu Zhongjun ranks second. Judging from this ranking, the other party is Zhu Xuanji's biggest enemy.
The other side.
"Brother, how did you do in the exam?" Zheng Shuanggou asked Zheng Danlian with concern.
Zheng Danjian snorted coldly and suppressed the annoyance in his heart.
During the palace examination just now, he almost took out his sickle and smashed the desk!
Zheng Danjian: "The Three Sects' Masters are no better than this. Before holding the palace examination, the Three Sects' Masters' Dharma should be spread."
Zhou Nongying said, "We have just discussed this. It is very likely that the monster attacked the palace, causing the palace examination to be greatly advanced. According to the original procedures, there should be a way to pass on the method."
Ning Jiufan added: "Or, in the follow-up of the line where the soul enters the Immortal Palace, there should be these three sects' upper methods."
Zheng Shuanggou shook his head and smiled bitterly: "It's okay, it's okay, we are all like this, the rankings won't change too much."
Almost all the monks had the same idea as them.
Except Sun Lingtong and Ning Zhuo.
Zhou Zeshen came to Ning Zhuo and asked him about his feelings about the palace examination.
Ning Zhuo smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid I've failed the test this time. Sigh, I might lose a great opportunity in life!"
Zhou Zeshen immediately felt relieved and consoled him, "It's the same for everyone, so please be at ease, Brother Ning."
Ning Zhuo shook his head: "How can we, the Qi Refining cultivators, compare to those Jindan cultivators? Their horizons are much broader than ours. Even if they don't know the Three Sects' Supreme Laws, they can still try their best to answer the questions through their own understanding."
"It's not the case with you and me."
Zhou Zeshen nodded and sighed: "What I think is the same as you, brother Ning Zhuo."
The other corner.
Yang Chanyu came in front of Sun Lingtong.
Sun Lingtong looked conflicted.
Yang Chanyu couldn't help but worry: "Hey, how did you answer as a foundation-building cultivator?"
"You are too young and your cultivation is weak. Don't let yourself be eliminated because of too many gaps."
"If you leave me alone to participate in the subsequent palace examination, I will increase my share of the profits by another 10%!"
Sun Lingtong sneered and rolled her eyes at Yang Chanyu: "Woman, just wait and see."
He quickly glanced at Ning Zhuo in the distance.
After Ning Zhuo acquired the three sects' supreme skills, he shared them with Sun Lingtong without reservation!
Ning Zhuo can answer the questions with all his strength, but Sun Lingtong cannot.
Because he was acting under the name Ning Zhuo.
Therefore, for many questions, even though he knew the answers, he could not give the correct answers.
Sun Lingtong had to consider the situation when the results of the palace examination were announced.
It’s so difficult to grasp this balance!
The monks' communication was interrupted by the sudden arrival of information.
"The first round of palace examinations, the performance rankings are as follows:"
“Entry standards.”
"Book-kun."
"Zhu Xuanji."
…
The crowd was suddenly in an uproar.
The first place is so, so, so eye-catching!
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
"Entry standards?!" Everyone looked at Sun Lingtong with shock, anger, hatred, and contempt.
Even though Sun Lingtong was extremely bold, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva when he was suddenly hated by so many people.
Yang Chanyu snorted coldly, took a step forward, and blocked Sun Lingtong behind her. She sneered: "Everyone, if anyone wants to be eliminated by Lava Fairy Palace and disqualified from the palace examination, you can do it!"
There was almost rage in everyone's eyes.
"What a great Bukongmen!"
"I didn't expect that he had penetrated so deeply and was so familiar with the Three Sects' methods!!"
"If Sun Lingtong knew the three sects' upper methods, how could he only practice his boy's skills?"
"This is obviously cheating, blatant cheating!"
"We worked hard to answer the questions and take the imperial examination honestly, but this sneaky little thief actually cheated openly?!"
"Alas, I should have thought of it earlier. Sun Lingtong is in the foundation-building stage, but his soul can enter the Immortal Palace. Break through the levels and take advantage of the high cultivation level. It seems that Bukongmen has grasped the huge loophole of the Lava Immortal Palace!"
"Where is Gong Ling? Someone is cheating!!! Please punish him immediately!"
The monks were furious.
The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit was of course paying attention to the whole process, and when he heard these words, he rolled his eyes and felt extremely powerless.
Because it knows the truth.
It growled, "The one you should really care about is Ning Zhuo! It's this little monster!!"
Seeing that everyone was kept in the dark, and seeing that "Ning Zhuo" was ranked in the middle of the ranking list, he was not noticeable at all.
This made the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit feel extremely powerless, and the chill in his heart grew stronger.
Sun Lingtong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He successfully completed the task without making his performance too prominent, allowing Ning Zhuo to continue hiding.
Yang Chanyu suddenly hugged him.
Such an intimate behavior made Sun Lingtong extremely disgusted. She pushed it away with all her might and struggled to break free.
"Yang Chanyu, what are you doing?!" Sun Lingtong yelled.
Yang Chanyu stared at Sun Lingtong with eager eyes: "You are amazing, little guy, you really bring honor to our Bukong Sect."
"How did you do that?"
"Did you really get the Three Sects of the Supreme Law, or did you cheat?"
"Hurry, tell me!"
Sun Lingtong shook her head: "Oh, you are really annoying."
Looking at Sun Lingtong from afar, Ning Zhuo also relaxed quietly, feeling quite relieved: "As expected of you, you are the boss!"
The name Ning Zhuo is in the middle of the list and is not very noticeable.
New information was conveyed again.
"Combining the merit list and performance ranking, a new calculation is performed and the ranking is as follows:"
"Zhu Xuanji."
"Book-kun."
…
"Zheng Danjian."
“Entry standards.”
…
Rather be clumsy.
Zhou Zeshen.
…
"How is that possible?!"
"I, I failed the exam?"
“Damn it!”
The faces of the last ten monks on the list changed color, some screamed in pain, and some looked pale.
Ning Zhuo noticed that there was not a single Jindan cultivator among them. About half were trial disciples, and the other half were foundation-building cultivators.
The vision and knowledge of the Jindan cultivators are still profound enough.
The questions in the jade slip test were limited to the Qi Refining Stage, and a few reached the Foundation Establishment Stage. Therefore, even if the Jindan cultivators did not know the Three Sects' Supreme Laws, they could answer them skillfully with their own knowledge.
On the other hand, the reason why no Jindan cultivator failed to fail was also because they had made many achievements before and ranked among the top.
The eliminated disciples in the trial suffered from their lack of knowledge.
As for the foundation-building cultivators, there may be two reasons. On the one hand, they lack achievements, and on the other hand, their knowledge is not as good as that of the golden elixir cultivators, so their role is relatively small.
