Chapter 17: Quarrel after dinner
Before he could finish his words, someone boldly interrupted.
"Great Elder, our ancestors fought for the Ji family and risked their lives. Are we going to be treated the same as those people who can't even take care of a tree?"
Ji Pingan stood up and asked, "Who do you think can't look at trees well?"
"I'm talking about you."
Ji Qingling grabbed Ji Qingyuan who was also about to stand up.
That's a Nascent Soul. How young and full of energy! How dare you interrupt and argue in front of a Nascent Soul cultivator? Do you think he's not dying fast enough?
"Quiet!" These two words rang out again, but this time the powerful pressure made everyone unable to utter a single word.
“The clan does not forbid the disciples from competing with each other, but their cultivation must be of equal level.
When you attack, you must know when to stop, not to cause harm to anyone, and not to destroy others' practice.
Anyone who maliciously injures a member of the clan will have their cultivation abolished and be expelled from the clan."
The Great Elder seemed not to have heard the argument just now.
"From now on, the morning classes will be taught by Elder Jindan himself. Who else has anything to say now?"
Looking around and seeing that no one was talking anymore, he turned to the third elder and nodded slightly before leaving.
The Third Elder probably has no experience in teaching children.
After much thought, the youngest of these children has just reached the first level of Qi Refining.
It was too profound for them to understand, so they decided to start from the spiritual roots.
There are five common types of spiritual roots: the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth.
But there are also some people who are born with mutated spiritual roots, such as thunder spiritual roots, ice spiritual roots, etc.
A person who possesses a mutated spiritual root must be a single spiritual root with extremely high talent.
The spiritual root value of a cultivator can be divided into ten parts, and the total of each person's spiritual roots must be ten.
The highest spiritual root value is 10% and the lowest is 10%.
There is no need to talk about single spiritual roots, let’s take double spiritual roots as an example.
If the value of one spiritual root is 90%, the value of the other spiritual root must be 10%. This is the best case for dual spiritual roots.
The worst case scenario for dual spiritual roots is when both spiritual root values are 50%.
The higher the spiritual root value, the more powerful the spells used.
If two people are fighting, the other party will use all his strength to give you a fatal blow.
With your spiritual root value, even if you use all your strength to slash the opponent twice, it will only cause minor injuries.
Therefore, the best situation for the five spiritual roots is that one spiritual root has a value of 60%, and the other four spiritual roots have values of 10% each.
Facing two opponents with dual spiritual roots whose spiritual root values are both 50%, you will not necessarily lose.
To sum up, the number of spiritual roots a cultivator has is not the most important thing; his quality depends on the value of his spiritual roots.
"Third Elder, how can we know the value of our spiritual roots?" someone asked.
“Our spirit stone can only tell you your spirit root level. You need a spirit platform to know your spirit root value.
In Tongcheng, only the City Lord's Mansion has a spirit-testing platform. It costs 100 spirit stones each time, and one must be a foundation-building cultivator, and someone must introduce one to him."
Ji Qingling smacked his lips, it was so expensive. Ji Linhai probably couldn't bear to spend the money.
She guessed that her gold spiritual root had the best spiritual root value, because her wood spiritual root was really weak and the spell effect of her water spiritual root was also average.
She raised her doubts, "Third Elder, when we practice, do we only cultivate the best spiritual root or do we also need to cultivate other spiritual roots?"
"Generally, the main cultivation is to cultivate only the best spiritual root, and the other spiritual roots are used as auxiliary spiritual roots to learn a few basic spells.
After all, when you reach the foundation-building stage, you can still use basic spells from other spiritual roots.
Of course, some cultivators will also cultivate two spiritual roots at the same time. Although they have to spend a lot of time on the auxiliary spiritual root, which will affect their advancement and breakthrough, some actual combat effects are still good.
This True Man has seen a cultivator who mainly cultivated the Wood Spiritual Root, and also cultivated the auxiliary Gold Spiritual Root to the extreme.
Although his attack power is not the strongest, but with the defense of the gold spiritual root, he is very strong and has high endurance among his peers."
"Then it would be beneficial to build more?"
“Naturally, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. No matter how strong one is among his peers in actual combat, if he spends too much energy on supporting his spiritual roots, his cultivation level will definitely lag behind others.
There is no comparison between the Qi Refining Stage and the Foundation Establishment Stage."
After saying so much, the third elder began to find the feeling of being a teacher.
What I will talk about later are the problems encountered during the Qi Refining Stage and how to deal with them.
And the experience of practicing in the Qi Refining realm.
An hour later, everyone benefited greatly.
…
Qingfeng Hall has a canteen that provides free meals for children.
When they first arrived at a new place, the children in the village couldn't help but gather together.
The children of the Ji family in Tongcheng also gathered together and kept a considerable distance from them.
Ji Qingling held Susu and walked in front. She was really enthusiastic about eating.
The chefs at the Ji family restaurant are really good at cooking. There are a wide variety of dishes and all the food has a bit of spiritual flavor.
I ordered a big bowl of hand-rolled noodles, which were covered with a thick layer of animal meat topping.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Place some green vegetables and sprinkle with finely chopped green onions.
The noodles were chewy, the meat was soft, and the taste was amazing! Ji Qingling was very satisfied with the meal, and his impression of the Ji family increased slightly.
After a short break, everyone's destination changed to the martial arts hall, where foundation-building monks taught magic skills.
Unlike Xiao Wangshan, who just played against Hong Lian in an open field.
Various low-level spiritual weapons were placed on both sides of the huge martial arts hall, including knives, swords, guns, sticks, fans, bows, axes, whips, hammers, forks, halberds, maces, etc.
Naturally, they had never seen it before and were very curious.
Ji Qingling and Susu, one holding a stick and the other holding a sword, found a place with few people and started practicing.
A little girl in red clothes walked past them.
"A bunch of bumpkins."
The voice was quite loud and there was no intention to conceal it.
Everyone around stopped.
The hot-tempered little Susu was the first to launch a counterattack.
"Who are you calling a bumpkin?"
"Whoever promised to speak."
Ji Qingling closed his eyes in silence. Why were the lines used by the boys and girls when they quarreled so similar?
Although quarreling is her weak point, there is no reason for her to stand aside and say nothing when her good friends quarrel.
"Forget it, Susu, there's no need to argue with a child."
The little girl in red was unhappy when she heard this, "Who are you calling a kid?"
"Of course, whoever promised to speak will speak for him."
Su Su nodded hurriedly, "That's right."
The little girl in red was probably spoiled in her daily life, so she rushed directly to Ji Qingling when she heard something she didn't like.
"You wild girl from the countryside, how dare you talk back to me here? Do you know who my father is?"
Ji Qingling secretly laughed in his heart, wondering how Ban Di's words could be so consistent.
"Miss, I see you are quite young, how come you have such a bad memory? The Great Elder just said this morning that no one here will care who your parents and grandfather are, and that you should just focus on your cultivation. He also said that we are all the same Ji family members. You just said that we are bumpkins, but did you also bring yourself into this?"
Xiao Susu continued to nod, "That's right."
A male voice came at this time, "But the Great Elder also said that here it all depends on one's ability."
Looking at the person who came, Ji Qingling pulled Susu back a step. It was the boy who said in the morning that they couldn't even take care of the trees.
Ji Qingyuan also rushed over, "To see your ability, you have to have a similar level of cultivation. Are you planning to compete with a beginner who has just entered the first level of Qi Refining?"
He pulled Ji Qingling and Susu behind him, acting like he was the big brother.
I know the setting about spiritual roots is a bit confusing, but there is no way, I have to write it out.
In a word, the total number of spiritual root values for everyone is the same, which is 10. Single spiritual roots are naturally a single 10. The best value for double spiritual roots is 9+1, and the worst is 5+5 . The best value for three spiritual roots is 8+1+1, and the worst is 4+3+3. The best value for four spiritual roots is 7+1+1+1.
The best five spiritual roots are 6+1+1+1+1, and the worst are 2+2+2+2+2+2. Okay, I'm sorry for being so long-winded.
