Under the podium:
Many of the new disciples around Zhou Qing had dull expressions.
A month? Open the fourth heaven of pulse? !
Just a few words had an unparalleled impact on their hearts!
"..."
No one spoke, and the silence around you could be heard.
No one expected that among the fifty-seven new disciples in Qingzhu Court this year, some would practice "Pure Yang Kung" to the fourth level in just one month!
And this person is not Mr. Liu, who has the deepest background and noble blood, but Zhou Qing!
Who is Zhou Qing?
Most of the new disciples have an impression of him - a mediocre person who can't distinguish priorities, is short-sighted, sells his labor and wastes time for a few spiritual stones, he can even be said to be a fool!
Although many new disciples have never ridiculed or ridiculed Zhou Qing, they naturally have some contempt for Zhou Qing in their hearts, but no one is stupid enough to show it.
But just such a person, such a "idiot", broke through to the fourth level of Kai Mai in just one month, leaving all the disciples of the same year far behind, even unable to catch up!
Is this Zhou Qing?
This is Zhou Qing! !
If Zhou Qing like this is still an "idiot", then what are they, scum and trash?
"...Congratulations to Brother Zhou!"
Liu Songren was the first to react, walked over quickly, and shouted congratulations!
The emotions in his heart surged. In addition to being shocked like everyone else, there was also uncontrollable joy:
"He is indeed the number one genius in the outer sect in the same year!"
He just heard Zhou Qing say yesterday that he was about to break through to the fourth heaven and he was going to Qingyang Shanfang City to buy some elixirs to break through.
But he thought it would take a few more days, but he didn't expect that yesterday he said he was about to break through, and today he actually reached the fourth level of Kaimai, becoming the first in Qingzhuyuan in the same year!
Doesn't such an amazing talent prove his vision and courage?
"Oh My God……"
At this time, Wu Ming also reacted, his eyes widened, as if he had met Zhou Qing next to him for the first time:
"Senior Brother Zhou, are you serious?"
"I'm still wandering around in the second heaven of Kaimai, and you broke through to the fourth heaven without saying a word?"
After he finished speaking, many new disciples reacted one after another, and the scene suddenly exploded.
"Oh my God...it took just one month to reach the fourth level?"
"Zhou Qing...senior brother, are you so powerful?"
"I just broke through to the second level of Kai Mai yesterday, and Senior Brother Zhou Qing has already achieved the fourth level? My mother, what a comparison..."
"One month! He is only two days behind Li Chen of Hantan Courtyard. Not only is he first in Qingzhu Courtyard, he is also second in the outer sect!"
"Good guy, why didn't I realize that Senior Brother Zhou Qing is so powerful before?"
Among the many new disciples, some were dumbfounded, some looked dazed, some were envious or even jealous, some were stunned...the expressions on their faces were all wonderful.
"Zhou Qing...has reached the fourth level?"
Liu Songran and Li Yuanhui and Zhang Liang looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
What's going on?
They watched with their own eyes every day as Zhou Qing worked hard to chop down an extra piece of spiritual bamboo. Every day, he dragged his body back to his home until he was almost dead. He lived a miserable life and was so poor that he couldn't bear to part with the spiritual stone. Use it to practice, let alone swallow the elixir.
But right under their noses, Zhou Qing actually broke through to the fourth level of opening the pulse without saying a word!
It was precisely because they were more familiar with Zhou Qing than others that they found the news unbelievable. They even instinctively suspected that the senior who had started the program last year was lying and deliberately flattering.
But their reason told them that since a supervisor from Qingzhuyuan was involved, this news could never be false!
Zhou Qing really broke through to the fourth level of opening the pulse!
"This damn..."
Liu Songran felt a little sore.
At this moment, it was difficult for him to describe how complicated his mood was - shock, confusion, disbelief, mixed with a little jealousy and feeling unbalanced.
Thinking about him, Liu Songran, although he was a concubine, he was also born in the Liu family of Shanyin. He had to swallow a pulse-opening pill every day, and it was only a few days ago that he broke through to the second level of pulse-opening.
And what about Zhou Qing? He couldn't even swallow the spiritual pill, but he left him far behind on the path of cultivation.
"So this is the real genius?"
At this moment, Liu Songran felt a huge sense of frustration in his heart. His body swayed and he almost sat on the ground.
"Senior Brother Zhou!"
At this time, the Qingzhuyuan disciple who was on duty at the Supervision Office spoke again, with a hint of respect:
"Several fellow seniors and I admire Senior Brother Zhou's talent."
"In order to congratulate Senior Brother Zhou on his successful breakthrough, we have put together a small gift, and we hope that Senior Brother Zhou will not refuse."
As he spoke, he actually took out a red orb from his sleeve - it was a low-grade Red Sun Pearl.
"oh?"
Zhou Qing's expression moved slightly and he immediately declined:
"I accept your wishes, senior fellow apprentices, but I really deserve this gift."
He was able to accept Liu Songren's support. On the one hand, he desperately needed the wealth of five hundred spirit stones. On the other hand, Liu Songren represented background and connections, which were also of great value to him.
Interpersonal relationships are always mutual, and sometimes owing favors to others can bring us closer to each other.
But he could accept a large amount of spiritual stone support and was willing to owe such a favor, but he was unwilling to accept such a "small favor" from dozens of spiritual stones.
Even though it was only a few dozen spiritual stones, his identity was still an outer disciple in the middle stage of opening his veins. Judging from the perspective of other ordinary disciples of the same level, this was already a gift of considerable weight.
Accepting this gift is equivalent to owing a small favor - a debt of favor is hard to repay, no matter how small a favor is, it is still a favor, and ignoring it can easily ruin your reputation.
Such "small favors", before he reaches a certain status, will cause hundreds of harms but only one benefit. How can he be willing to lose a big thing because of a small thing?
"That's...ok."
The two sides exchanged some words. Seeing that Zhou Qing's attitude was somewhat firm, he could only regretfully take back the Chiyang Pearl.
Many new disciples on the side, and even some senior brothers and sisters who were in the middle stage of opening their pulses, swarmed over at this time and started talking in all directions:
"Congratulations to Senior Brother Zhou!"
"Senior Brother Zhou is so happy!"
"Congratulations to Senior Brother Zhou, you are the number one genius of our year!"
"Senior Brother Zhou, I live not far from you..."
Zhou Qing was surrounded in the center of the crowd and could only deal with it. He was a little confused for a while.
Fortunately, a distant roar of air waves rescued him:
"boom!"
After the roar subsided, the surrounding area suddenly became quiet, and then someone shouted:
"The lecturer is here!"
Many Qingzhuyuan disciples did not dare to neglect and sat back in their seats, waiting for the lecturer to arrive.
The crimson light fell on the high platform. After the light dissipated, a fat figure that everyone was familiar with was revealed.
"Hey, why are you so busy?"
Professor Chen obviously saw the scene just now and said with a smile:
"What's the happy news? Telling it makes the teacher happy."
"Master Chen."
A new disciple said loudly:
"It's Senior Brother Zhou Qing!"
"He broke through to the fourth level of meridians today!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone responded one after another, and their eyes subconsciously focused on Zhou Qing.
"oh?"
When Chen Xianda heard this, he couldn't help showing a look of surprise. While looking at Zhou Qing, he couldn't help but smile:
"Okay! What a good news!"
"The new disciples are the future of the sect. The more and stronger the geniuses emerge, the more prosperous our Chunyang Immortal Sect will be!"
His mood obviously became very good, and he said with a smile:
"Zhou Qing, it just so happens that I came to Qingzhuyuan to give a lecture today and bumped into you making a breakthrough. It's quite a fate."
"Do you have any problems in your practice? Just ask!"
"yes!"
Zhou Qing suddenly became energetic and quickly stood up. After bowing respectfully, he said:
"Reporting to Teacher Chen, I still don't understand the key points of these sentences in the middle chapter of "Pure Yang Kung": 'The six yangs are harmonized, the qi crowns the heavenly spirit, and the excess becomes empty...'."
"Um."
Chen Xianda waved his hand and said with a smile:
"This paragraph is indeed a bit obscure. I guess you are not the only one who knows a little about it and only half-understands it."
"Sit down first, and I will explain it in detail..."
…………
An hour later.
Chen Xianda encouraged Zhou Qing a few words, then happily walked away with Dun Guangyuan.
The crowd at the podium first dispersed with a bang, then quickly surrounded Zhou Qing, and surrounded him as he left the podium.
"Senior Brother Zhou..."
Wu Ming, who was following Zhou Qing, reacted belatedly and said with a sad face:
"Senior Brother Zhou, now that you have broken through to the fourth level, you no longer have to chop bamboo."
"That day, I was alone in the bamboo sea all day long. No one even helped me catch rabbits and pheasants..."
Zhou Qing laughed and was about to say something when the disciple on duty said first:
"Junior brother, you don't know this!"
"Although Senior Brother Zhou is no longer a new disciple, he has not been removed from the merit list!"
"oh?"
This statement immediately aroused everyone's curiosity, and they all started asking questions.
"It's like this. Inspector Shen had already ordered me to remove my name at that time..."
The disciple on duty looked a little proud and recounted the previous events in the Supervision Office in detail, focusing on his unique talent that Zhou Qing had mentioned.
"I see!"
Everyone suddenly realized that many clever new disciples had begun to make up stories to praise Zhou Qing based on this point.
"No wonder he can practice so fast. It turns out that he can speed up his practice after cutting bamboo..."
Liu Songran, who was following the back of the crowd and remained silent all the way, also heard the explanation of the disciple on duty and felt a little better.
This kind of unique talent is indeed unmatched by him, and it also proves that he did not waste time, but practiced harder than him, so that he can be as dazzling as he is today!
"A blinding leaf!"
Also following Zhou Qing was Liu Songren, but his expression was awe-inspiring.
It has to be said that before he witnessed Zhou Qing's talent, he also despised Zhou Qing and regarded him as a short-sighted "mediocrity".
But in reality?
People work hard to chop spiritual bamboo every day, in the final analysis, it is for their own path, and they even endured hardships that ordinary people cannot bear, in exchange for a steady increase in cultivation!
And without knowing the inside story, he actually subconsciously underestimated the other person just because he was a little bit different from ordinary people. Doesn't this prove his own stupidity and prejudice?
He could see through Li Chen's helpless behavior in Hantan Courtyard at a glance, but why couldn't he see the reason behind Zhou Qing's abnormal behavior?
"Such a mistake must not be made again in the future!"
Liu Songren secretly warned himself in his heart.
The crowd gathered around Zhang Qing and dispersed one after another after leaving the podium.
The disciples who are in the middle stage of opening their meridians have to practice, go out, discuss and practice, while most of the new disciples who are in the early stage of opening their meridians have to go to the Bamboo Sea to chop down spiritual bamboos.
As many Qingzhuyuan disciples dispersed:
Zhou Qing, the newly promoted disciple of Qingzhu Academy this year, broke through to the fourth level of Kaimai at the speed just behind Li Chen of Hantan Academy, and also swept through the entire Twelve Outer Academy at the speed of a hurricane!
Geniuses who can break through to the fourth level of heaven within one month of entry are rare to see in several years, but this year two were born at once, which naturally caused a greater sensation!
Qingzhuyuan Zhou Qing has become famous as an outer sect!
