Chapter 115 [(*^▽^*)]
She considered the overall situation and waited until everything was settled before she told Ming Caiqing about it, but Ming Caiqing didn't admit it at all. She felt that she had not hit the target wrongly. She
even said with a straight face that Hua Qingmeng had seen it wrongly. What a joke, how could she see it wrongly? The flying sword flew past her neck, how could she see it wrongly?
However, the mission was completed at that time, the enemies had been killed, and Hua Qingmeng was indeed not injured, so the matter was left unresolved.
It made her angry enough, and Hua Qingmeng's impression of Ming Caiqing was completely ruined since then.
Xu Yangping watched Ming Fanxing and Ming Yufeng walk into a room side by side, and he breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's pick a room for ourselves."
"We have been either rushing or fighting in the past two months. Even if we can sleep and rest on the flying boat, we certainly haven't rested well. We should conserve our energy in the next few days."
Ming Fanxing and the other four were not special. They ate and slept these days, and they were completely relaxed. They could recover in a few days.
Ming Caiqing was very entangled. She was sitting on the edge of the bed with a worried look on her face. The four of them had already decided to participate in the ranking battle, but what about her?
Should she participate?
If she participated, she might die.
But the city lord said that she only needed to admit defeat right after she got on stage, and if she persisted until the end, she could stay in the academy, but that would mean she would be the last one.
She felt that she still had to have some dignity, and maybe she could be lucky enough to meet someone weaker than herself? Then winning once would still be a win, and she would not be the last one.
The city lord said that the cultivation resources obtained in the Xiuxian Academy had a lot to do with the ranking. If she messed around all the way and got the last one.
Even if she stayed, the resources she obtained would definitely be very few, and...
When she came in before, she roughly observed the situation of this academy. It looked poor, as if it was an academy built specifically for cultivation, and there was no place for enjoyment at all.
The imperial city outside the academy was very bustling and prosperous, and she looked at it with longing.
She came back to her senses and sighed. She was the last one in the group and had the weakest strength. She had the least resources and had to live in such a pigsty to cultivate.
The balance in Ming Caiqing's heart began to tilt towards returning to Jinzhou City.
But she suddenly thought that once she returned, she would have to formally marry Jin Jingyun, become his wife, and bear children for him.
From then on, she would have no freedom at all, and the balance in her heart tilted towards staying in the imperial city again.
Although before leaving Jinzhou City, she and Jin Jingyun had actually held a wedding due to lack of time, she had even...
She stared at her hands with some shame. That wedding was held by the Jin family, and they said that they would hold another wedding when she returned to Jinzhou City in the future.
The more Ming Caiqing thought about it, the more
upset she felt. She was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead, but she just couldn't make a decision right now. Ming Fanxing and the others had had a thorough rest these days, but Ming Caiqing looked abnormally haggard. She looked very haggard at first glance.
But... fortunately, no matter how poor she was, she was still a cultivator who had reached the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation. Although she was tired, she still looked energetic.
Jin Nantian looked at the five people in front of him, "Ming Caiqing, are you sure you want to stay?"
Ming Caiqing swallowed her saliva. She thought about it for several days and finally decided to stay. She would accept it even if she was the last one.
She had to stay here. Maybe there would be other ways out? If she went back, there would be no other possibility.
How old is Jin Nantian?
Ming Caiqing's thoughts were almost written on his face. He didn't care at all. After all, she was a woman. Even if something unexpected happened, the engagement would be cancelled.
Can't the descendants of his Jin family find other women?
"Yes, City Lord, I have decided to stay."
Ming Fanxing glanced at Ming Caiqing obscurely. It seems that she still has unrealistic fantasies. In the original book, she became the white moonlight of the male protagonist Qin Jiuzhou.
In the end, the male protagonist advanced to the foundation-building stage and left. No matter how hard she tried, no matter how much she did, even with the help of the male protagonist Qin Jiuzhou, she failed to successfully build the foundation in the end, let alone now.
Sure enough, some people are looking for death themselves, and he doesn't need to do anything.
Jin Nantian didn't say much, "In that case, come with me, go sign up now, and then draw lots. Jintian is the day of the ranking battle."
When he led the five people out of the yard, he happened to meet people from other states outside. They were also going to sign up and draw lots.
After Jin Nantian and the other party looked at each other, they exchanged greetings and then walked together. It seems that he has a good relationship with this person.
Since Ming Fanxing came to the imperial city, he basically appraised anyone who looked good. Along the way, he appraised many foundation-building and Qi Condensation cultivators.
He probably discovered a pattern. All cultivators in the foundation-building stage basically have one of their spiritual roots with more than 100 talent points, or exactly 100.
Just like Jin Nantian had a fire spiritual root with a talent point of 102 points in the early stage of foundation-building.
And all spiritual root talent points within 100 are Qi Condensation cultivators.
He looked at his own spiritual roots, all of which had a talent point of 50 points, so...can he succeed in building the foundation?
It should be fine, right?
His cultivation speed is not bad. Now it is definitely not as good as Ming Yufeng who has 666 points of wind spiritual root talent, and Qin Jiuzhou who has abnormal talent.
But it is not bad.
At the very least, he still has the golden finger to strengthen all his spiritual roots. Originally, he only needed to strengthen five spiritual roots, but now for the mustard seed space, he has added two more spiritual roots to his plan.
This time the speed will definitely be much slower, but he knows that as long as he can survive the difficult moments in the early stage, he will be able to make rapid progress in the future.
However, when it comes to spiritual root talent and realm, he also found another rule.
For all cultivators in the Condensation Stage, the highest spiritual awareness does not exceed 300 points, and the physical fitness does not exceed 500 points. Maybe there are, but he has not seen it.
Even Ming Yufeng is within this numerical range.
For cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, their spiritual awareness is all above 300 points, and their physical fitness is all above 500 points. Could this be... the gap?
And basically, many of the identified cultivators have higher physiques than consciousness values, but he is the only one whose consciousness is stronger than his physique.
But think about it, it makes sense, he has the Chongming Beast!
The Chongming Beast can nourish the soul, and his own soul... that is, consciousness will definitely grow relatively fast, there is nothing he can do about it.
Because of his strong consciousness, he is able to control many spells that ordinary Qi Condensation cultivators cannot master well, especially those mid-level spells.
You have to know that the city lord in the Foundation Establishment Stage can only be said to be proficient in the use of Fire Dragon Technique, and it is not realistic to say that he has mastered it thoroughly.
However... as a Foundation Establishment cultivator, Jin Nantian is undoubtedly very powerful. Even if Lin Leyou's consciousness and physique are the same as Jin Nantian, he is not Jin Nantian's opponent.
The most critical thing is the spiritual power in the Dantian!
Ming Yufeng noticed that Ming Fanxing was in a daze while walking. He walked to his side quietly and blocked the sight of those people on the opposite side.
It was very quiet along the way. Jin Nantian led them forward and soon came to a valley after twists and turns.
That's right!
There is actually a valley in the Xiuxian Academy in the imperial city!
It's not just a single valley, but they didn't see many formal buildings along the way.
They even saw a lot of high mountains. How could this be a Xiuxian Academy? It's like simply enclosing a mountain range with a wall and building some houses casually.
Although it looks very simple, the spiritual power felt in the past few days is indeed much richer than that in Jinzhou City.
Ming Fanxing knew that this place should be kept in its original state to the greatest extent because of the rich spiritual energy. It is estimated that all the cultivation here requires digging caves.
Jin Nantian brought them to a certain place, which belonged to the location of Jinzhou City.
"You wait here. The people above just gave an order. It is not us who draw the lots, but others who draw the lots. Whoever draws the lot will go on stage."
"In that case, then we just need to wait here?"
Jin Nantian nodded. "Yes, I just inquired. This time, there are only 220 disciples in the 36 states and one imperial city. You must strive for excellence."
As soon as the voice fell, Jin Nantian's eyes immediately became sharp, looking at the old enemy not far away.
"Isn't this the mayor of Jinzhou City? What's the matter? You only brought such a small number of people this year?"
Jin Nantian looked at him and sneered, "Isn't this the mayor of Haiyun City? I didn't expect that you are still alive at such an old age? You are really amazing. I admire you!"
"By the way, I heard that you lost a loved one some time ago. I was too busy here and didn't go to pay my respects. But I still want to say one thing, please... accept my condolences."
The person who came was Song Luyan, the mayor of Haiyun City, a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building. Of course, he also had a great grudge with Jin Nantian. Who made Haiyun City and Jinzhou City a sworn enemy!
Song Lvyan's emotions fluctuated greatly when he heard him say this, and his expression was extremely terrifying. He kept silent about the death, "I'm really sorry that I can live to this day, but who made me so lucky? There's nothing I can do!"
Jin Nantian, "It's true that I'm so lucky. Maybe they were killed by you?"
Song Lvyan's eyes seemed to be poisoned, but he didn't talk to Jin Nantian, but instead focused his eyes on Ming Fanxing and Ming Yufeng.
His tone was calm, but his breath was cold.
"These two little guys, right? Not bad, you can tell at first glance that they are good kids. Although you are not a good person, your vision is still as good as ever."
"What a pity, these two kids are from your Jinzhou City. If they were from my Haiyun City, as the city lord, I would definitely love them to the core. It's such a waste to give them to you."
Jin Nantian sneered, "Whether it's a waste or not is not up to you to decide."
Song Luyan also responded with the same sneer, "You are confident. Don't think that just because Qin Jiuzhou appeared last year, you will still get the first place this year."
