Tang Zhao listened to his words quietly, not surprised.
He has already read Qin Yongcheng's information. In both junior and intermediate years, his results were very good and balanced. There is a balance between civil and military affairs, and a balance between internal and external strength. Whether the teacher's comments are good, it shows that he has a good temperament and works hard to make progress.
But his inspiration score was low at that time. At the end of the intermediate level, his inspiration test was around five inches.
Five inches is not very good, but it is not the lowest among his peers. Qu Huan is only six inches.
But when I got to my senior year, I started practicing Xuan Gong. In order to increase your inspiration when practicing Xuan Gong, you may not be able to practice Gang Qi well, but you cannot help but increase your inspiration.
Qu Huan has been practicing Xuan Gong for a year and has grown to nine inches and two inches now, one step away from the standard of a swordsman.
Qin Yongcheng is five inches to one minute.
After practicing Xuan Gong for nearly a year, I grew an inch.
According to this situation, it will take fifty years of practice to reach the one-foot swordsman passing line.
Fifty years from now, Qin Yongcheng will be less than 70 years old. If he practices his inner strength and mystical skills well, he will not look old yet, and he can still be considered to be in his prime. However, in fact, inspiration does not increase at a uniform rate with age. Instead, it starts rapidly and then gradually slows down and reaches a bottleneck. Around the age of thirty, Xuan Gong can no longer stimulate the growth of inspiration.
This curve is no secret now. All students have been measured. Anyone who cannot reach the standard at the age of thirty, to put it cruelly, has no training value.
In fact, not everyone in the Prosecution Department is a swordsman, and even most people are not swordsmen. There are many people who will never have the chance to become swordsmen even if their inspiration is up to par. However, there are too many talents in the District Inspection Department, and the competition is too fierce. Only the seeds of swordsmen are the real talent preparations, and they can be highly regarded by their bosses. Those who do not have the hope of swordsmen will not see a future.
Although the training camp has not directly given up on such students, low inspiration will not delay graduation. If they have good grades, they can still join the job, but joining the job is basically the end point. Even if they work hard to earn credit, they will not be able to become a powerful position like a guardian in the future.
Only swordsmen can become guardians. You can't get up just by accumulating merit, otherwise it will be too dangerous for you. In the final analysis, today's world is too dangerous, and only strength can rely on to survive.
A young man who is destined not to be a swordsman can only change his career early and become a civil servant, or find a casual job to support his family, such as being a six-door catcher, or joining the local militia as a troupe, which is more than enough, don't think about anything. The future is endless.
The same goes for other students who were eliminated in the first two years.
However, since the prospect of being eliminated was the same if the results were not good enough, then what was the purpose of studying hard and practicing hard day and night and being competitive in the past two years?
Thinking of this, I lost my breath.
During this year, Qin Yongcheng's grades steadily declined, and he finally reached the level of the last few. He didn't even plan to take the previous courses, and he failed with the same hopeless friends.
But today, Tang Zhao's words tore apart the restriction of inspiration on the magic weapon, revealing a glimmer of hope. Qin Yongcheng saw the future and chased it all the way out.
In fact, there are many people in a similar situation to him, but he was the first to chase them out, which shows that he is the person with the fastest reaction, the greatest determination, and the strongest action.
His blood was not yet cold.
Tang Zhao admired him very much, but unfortunately...
"It's difficult. Swordsmen and magical weapons are different. Swords are made by nature, while magical weapons are made by humans. People have room for negotiation, but God's will cannot be bargained for."
Tang Zhao said bluntly.
After all, the man in front of him is a young man, not an old man or a terminally ill patient. He will not do anything bad after hearing the bad news. On the contrary, if you just coax and give false hope, you will be even more disappointed if it is shattered later.
Qin Yongcheng paused for a moment, then asked: "It's difficult...but it's not absolutely impossible?"
Seeing his persistence, Tang Zhao said solemnly: "It's difficult to do your best and obey fate. You must know it thoroughly and come over here. I will explain it to you in detail." He then walked back to his office with his things. Qin Yongcheng followed him all the way without hesitation.
After entering the office, Tang Zhao poured him a cup of tea and asked him to sit down. Fang said sincerely: "First of all, I don't have any secrets for ordinary people to become swordsmen. I can only say that there is inspiration on the road of swordsmanship." Even those who are worse can work hard to fight for the key. If you fight, you may not win, and I don’t encourage you to fight. You can make your own judgment."
Tang Zhao has not specifically studied how to reduce inspiration and allow more people to become swordsmen. He didn't think it was necessary.
He wants surgical instruments to be introduced into thousands of households because they bring many benefits and make life easier, just like what Mr. Chen said about technology, making the world a better place.
And swordsmen... no matter how you say it, the first priority of swordsmen is to kill. Just like warriors, they are a small part of the world. They are essential to protect the environment and the people, but they don't need that many. We all go to practice martial arts. What do we eat and wear?
Moreover, is there a shortage of people who can become swordsmen? What is missing is the sword. There are countless new swords every year, and sword types are really rare. Old swords are like a carrot and a pit. Only when one dies will there be an empty spot. Now that there are no qualified people available, why do we need so many alternatives?
If Tang Zhaozhen wanted to create a swordsman on the spot, he would need to forge a new sword instead of perfecting a new person.
But he was also willing to help the young man within his ability. Not only did he appreciate his sincerity, but he also had some small personal thoughts.
Qin Yongcheng's diligence and slightly mediocre inspiration reminded him of another senior brother named Qin Haizhou.
Although Senior Brother Qin is not as close as Senior Sister Xue, Senior Brother Jiang and Tang Zhao, he is also a senior fellow apprentice of his and has given him a lot of care. And Tang Zhao admired him more than Senior Brother Deng.
Although Senior Brother Qin and Senior Brother Deng have similar talents, similar strength, and similar power, they seem to be a pair of sleeping dragons and phoenixes. However, Qin Haizhou comes from a humble family and does not have a stronger talent. To be able to keep pace with Deng Chong, it is difficult for ordinary people to pay. Imagine the effort.
Although Tang Zhao sometimes compares Senior Brother Qin's "Liver" to Senior Brother Deng's "Krypton", he has a more favorable impression of Senior Brother Qin's "Liver".
With Tang Zhao's background, he would never be allowed to sympathize with those noble gentlemen who were born rich and wanted whatever they wanted.
Sometimes it just happens that if Qin Yongcheng's surname is not Qin, maybe Tang Zhao really can't be allowed to target Senior Brother Qin from the beginning. He has a good impression of Senior Brother Qin and is willing to tell everything. This is also a kind of fate.
"The number of one foot of inspiration is, after all, an imaginary number. It is estimated by people themselves, not a rule of heaven. No god in charge of swords has said in his dream that someone with one foot can become a swordsman, but he cannot do it. I can only say that based on experience , when you reach one foot of inspiration, most swords can communicate with you, at least they can detect your talent."
He demonstrated: "It's like your inspiration is a hand. The sword intention is placed in a black box. The box is one foot high. You use this hand to go in and touch it, just enough to touch it to the bottom, and then explore around. As long as the sword intention is there There is a high probability that you can touch it in the box.”
"But your hand is not one foot long, so you can only touch part of the box. If the sword is close to your hand, you can reach it, but if it is a little off, you can't reach it. But if you know where the thing is, reach out straight and touch it. In the past, and the Sword Intent has a certain height, if you happen to touch it, it will be successful."
"If you can prepare and test the direction of inspiration, and there is a sword that is perfect for you, and it can respond to your weak inspiration, then the requirements for inspiration may be reduced. But the requirements for the matching degree of the sword will be increased."
Qin Yongcheng was a little excited after hearing this, but hesitantly said: "But even if we match again, can the inspiration requirement be reduced by half?"
Tang Zhao said seriously: "I can't give you the answer. If you are willing to give it a try, you can try it yourself. Secondly, try to change the Xuan Gong? Xuan Gong also has various directions, and the effect that suits you will be Even better. You still have potential for improvement."
Qin Yongcheng's mouth twitched - of course he has potential. He grows by one point a year, and even if he grows by two points, it will be doubled.
He smiled bitterly and said: "I don't know what the instructions are, but I have changed three Xuan Gong in a year, and now this one is the best."
Tang Zhaodao: "You have to make a purposeful choice. I think you have an inspiration test, but no direction test?"
Qin Yongcheng said: "The eight-inch test is meaningful. A test disk like mine can't rotate, so the test is in vain."
Tang Zhao said: "Yes, the test disk in our camp is too old and not sensitive at all. But the new stroke test set up by Junhou should be able to do it. Junhou's swordsmanship is full of sword energy, and he can respond to the slightest inspiration. You can try it try."
Qin Yongcheng said: "But I heard that no one can understand the test results..." His heart moved, he looked at Tang Zhao and thought to himself: Could it be that the instructions can be understood?
Tang Zhao did not take over everything directly, saying: "In a few days, I will organize everyone to test again, and we will see then. If targeted changes can be measured, that would be great. Although sometimes destiny is difficult It’s against the rules, but we must do our best.”
Qin Yongcheng nodded, somewhat more confident. After chatting for a while and standing up to leave, Tang Zhao said: "If you have any questions, you can come to me. Tell other students that I welcome all students to come and chat with me."
Qin Yongcheng bowed, walked to the door, and suddenly turned around and said: "Teacher, I heard that children in the evil villages around the devil's cave are often stimulated and their inspiration greatly increases? As if they have been reborn?"
Tang Zhao was moved in his heart and said: "Not everyone is like this, at most a small number of people. Rather than increasing inspiration, it is more like physical deformation. It is hard to say whether this change is good or bad... No, it is more bad. "
He thought of the red-haired Zhou Chengzhi. He didn't know if it had increased his inspiration, but it seemed that his ability to melt fire had obviously increased, and he was not afraid of being burned by fire.
Although his combat effectiveness has improved, his body seems to be different from that of a normal person.
Does this count as...transformation into a demon?
Tang Zhao said sternly: "If you go to Yinhuo Township, you will know that many people are affected by Yin Qi and have physical disabilities and mental disorders that are difficult to recover for life. Hair changes are still a trivial matter, and there are even more unpredictable risks. Can you walk into the light? Why would a righteous person walk on a single-plank bridge over the crater of a volcano?"
Qin Yongcheng bowed again and said, "Student understands." He turned and left.
