The illusions in Zhou Xing's mind frequently change scenes, which are very strange, but also very real, as if they have been integrated into his memory, as if he has experienced it personally...
The sky is clear and the wind is gentle. Qi, one of the hundred countries in the north of Qingzhou, has Wucheng College in the east of Lincheng as its capital. At this moment, the square in front of the most powerful civilian college in Qi is already crowded with people, because Today is the first day of the annual enrollment period of Wucheng College. Boys and girls from all over the world are waiting with great expectations.
One by one, the boys and girls who signed up were arranged to take the preliminary examination by the people of Wucheng College, and eight or nine out of ten of them would be eliminated. This shows that the admission of Wucheng College is strict. Although it is a civilian college, it will never accept mediocre talents.
"Next, Zhou Xing."
On the temporary test platform, next to a test stone tablet that was one person high, a woman in a blue robe and skirt shouted loudly. The woman was a veteran student of Wucheng College. She was wearing the uniform of the college, which was slightly loose. The uniform cannot hide the woman's curvy figure, which attracts many men's eyes.
Finally it’s my turn... Under the testing platform, a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old wearing coarse cloth took a deep breath, trying to relieve his nervousness, but to no avail. The young man walked out of the crowd, stared closely at the test stone tablet in front of him, pursed his lips, and stepped forward resolutely.
He pressed his right palm on the test area on the test stone and activated the weak spiritual power in his body. Suddenly, the test stone began to emit a faint blue-purple light from the bottom and spread to the upper part of the stone.
"The level is so high, but it's still Leilinggen. Let me go, where did this kid come from?"
"Yes, it is said that among the freshmen in the past, the ones with the strongest spiritual roots are usually at this level..."
"This kid is going to soar into the sky."
…
Voices of exclamation, envy and even jealousy came from the crowd, and the young man finally showed a smile on his face and looked at the woman aside. The latter smiled back. This was a treatment that the dozens of people in the previous test did not receive. Those people were not looked at by her at all!
"Zhou Xing, seventh-grade thunder spirit root."
When the woman's voice fell, not only the testing platform, but also the people around her looked sideways. The name of the seventh-grade Lei Linggen was too loud. Spiritual roots are the basis of human cultivation and can be divided into grades one to nine. The seventh-grade spiritual root is the top spiritual root in Qi. Legend has it that only the founding king of Qi hundreds of years ago had an eighth-grade spiritual root. With his proud talent, he finally became The super strong ones established Qi State, and besides that the seventh grade is the strongest in Qi State!
Spiritual roots have attributes. The most common ones are the five-element spiritual roots of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. There are also rare spiritual roots with thunder attributes, dark attributes, etc., which are generally much stronger than the five-element spiritual roots.
Therefore, when the seventh-grade Lei Linggen appeared, it immediately alarmed the senior officials of Wucheng Academy.
Originally, the people who were in charge of the test were only some veteran students. There were no senior members of the college in the huge square. They were all sitting in front of the majestic main entrance of the college, looking a bit like watching the storm with a smile. One of them has white beard and hair, and he looks old at first glance, but his face is rosy and does not look old at all. This person is Zhao Chen, one of the two vice-presidents of Wucheng College, a well-known person in the entire Qi Kingdom. Top strong man.
Zhao Chen, who had always been steady, could not sit still at this time and immediately went to the test bench where Zhou Xing was.
When Zhao Chen arrived, the woman in charge of the test immediately said respectfully: "I've met the vice president."
Zhao Chen waved his hand. He usually didn't care about these red tapes, not to mention that his thoughts were all on the young man in front of him. His eyes seemed to be shining, as if he wanted to eat the young man alive.
"May I have your name?"
"The junior's name is Zhou Xing," the young man paused and added, "The disease is a disease."
"Wuji...a good name, no disease..." Zhao Chen smacked his lips, then changed the subject and asked, "Are you willing to become my disciple?"
As soon as Zhao Chen said this, the senior college officials who came behind him were slightly surprised and understood. One of them, an old woman who was second only to Zhao Chen in terms of standing, smiled kindly and said: "Baili boy, if you don't agree quickly, Zhao Chen Vice President Chen is a sixth-grade thunder spirit root and a strong person in the celestial realm."
Celestial realm! Zhou Xing's breath stagnated. He was still only in the mortal martial realm, the weakest one, and he was still far away from the celestial realm!
"Student has met Master Zhao." Zhou Xing immediately bowed to Master Zhao.
"Hahaha... Okay, just come with me, I'll take you to your residence," Zhao Chen turned to the old woman next to him and said, "Mr. Yu, I'll leave this place to you."
Old Yu nodded and accepted Zhao Chen's assignment.
Freshmen who originally passed the test had to participate in a teacher selection competition, and were then uniformly assigned to tutors of different levels in the college. Those who performed well would be favored by the college's senior officials, but there were exceptions, such as geniuses like Zhou Xing, and some elders of the college. Even like Zhao Chen, the vice-dean, he took his favorite students under his tutelage and taught them carefully after testing their spiritual roots.
Zhao Chen led Zhou Xing towards the college, introducing the situation of Wucheng College along the way.
The academy has areas such as the Martial Arts Pavilion, the Kung Fu Pavilion, the Treasure Pavilion, the Competition Field, and the Training Tower. Behind the academy is a branch of the Kongsang Mountains called Shengxi Mountain. Legend has it that a super strong man once showed his presence here.
The higher-ups of the academy live at the foot of Shengxi Mountain. The aura of heaven and earth there is rich and far superior to other places. The training tower is also built according to Shengxi Mountain.
The college has a dean and two vice-presidents. The dean is named Qi Sheng. He has always seen the beginning but not the end, let alone a student. Even the senior officials of other colleges have hardly seen him. Except for Zhao Chen, the vice-president , and one named Nie Qi.
Under the vice-president are the academy elders, the four levels of tutors: purple gold, gold, silver and bronze.
Arriving at Zhao Chen's courtyard, Zhao Chen first carefully inspected Zhou Xing, then made some preparations, and said to the latter seriously: "The most important thing in the mortal martial realm is to temper the body, but many warriors do not pay attention to this. , only focusing on improving the realm and forming pills quickly to enter the spiritual martial realm will only ruin one's own martial arts path. If there is no great opportunity in the later period, the achievements will be greatly limited.
You are now at the sixth level of mortal martial arts. At this age, your own cultivation to this point is enough to prove your extraordinary talent. However, your physical body is also weak. I am going to initially improve your physical body through medicinal baths. Follow me. "
Zhao Chen took Zhou Xing into the underground stone chamber. There was a purple-black pool in the stone chamber. There were bubbles popping on the water, which looked very scary.
"The process of medicated bathing will be very painful. Just scream out if it hurts. The longer you hold on, the better the effect will be. Now take off your clothes and go in."
"good."
Zhou Xing did not dare to neglect at all, and stepped into the pool carefully. As soon as he touched the water, a heartbreaking pain came from his feet. He followed Zhao Chen's instructions and did not hold back. Suddenly, a shrill scream came from It came from the mouth and resounded throughout the stone chamber.
Zhou Xing gritted his teeth and jumped directly into the pool. His whole body was soaked in the water, leaving only one head above the water, and his originally angular face was distorted...
I don't know how long it took, Zhou Xing's whole body was numb, and the pain of the medicinal bath seemed to have disappeared. Zhao Chen's voice came: "Okay, come out. I didn't expect that you could insist on fully absorbing the power of the medicine. You are better than your senior sister." Quite a few.”
Zhou Xing opened his eyes and saw the change in the pool water. The purple-black color that symbolized the power of the medicine turned into some black filthy substances, which were impurities discharged from his body.
He immediately got out of the pool, put on his clothes, and asked curiously: "Teacher, did you just say senior sister?"
"Oh, I forgot to tell you," Zhao Chen stroked his white beard and said with a smile: "I have two disciples in total. Your senior sister was one I accepted five years ago, named Ye Qingshu, and I It was also a sixth-grade Lei Linggen. She persisted in the medicinal bath for nearly an hour and absorbed three-quarters of the medicinal power. She was also stubborn and refused to give up. In the end, she passed out and it was Elder Yu who fished her out. of.
She is really a training madman, staying in the training tower all day long. She is now twenty-one years old, has reached the eighth level of spiritual martial arts, and is ranked in the top five on the academy's spiritual list. "
Eighth level of Lingwu, top five on the Lingwu realm... Zhou Xing was secretly stunned. His senior sister was really amazing. He had heard Zhao Chen say that the Lingwu ranking was a ranking among the thousands of Lingwu realm students in the academy. He had to rely on challenges to win. Those who came down, in addition to the Tianbang, are the rankings among the few Tianwu realm students in the academy.
"Don't feel pressured. With your talent, I'm afraid you'll be able to catch up with your senior sister in a few years." As he spoke, Zhao Chen took out a scroll, "This is the Golden Body Technique, a third-level martial skill. It can greatly improve your physical body. Although you are at the third level, the threshold for cultivation is extremely high. Next, I will take you to the cultivation tower."
The cultivation tower is located in a mountain stream. The tower is more than a hundred meters tall, but only a black spire can be seen from the outside. The entrance is at the top of the tower.
When Zhao Chen arrived with Zhou Xing, the management elder of the training tower, an old man in gray robes as thin as a bamboo pole, immediately stood up to greet him: "I've seen the vice-dean, this is..."
"This is my new student Zhou Xing-Wuji, and this is Elder Wang Yeping."
"I've met Elder Wang." Zhou Xing quickly saluted.
"Mr. Wang, open a second-floor spiritual pressure training room for him, just for three hours." Zhao Chen said after thinking for a while.
There are twelve floors in the training tower. The higher the level, the higher the training room, and the greater the authority required. Ranking on the spiritual list and heavenly list is a kind of authority. Of course, Zhao Chen has the top authority. Which training room does he want? No problem, but he can't break the rules. The unspoken rule in the academy is that students under these high-level students can enjoy free admission for the first time.
The training room is also divided into two types: normal and spiritual pressure. The ordinary training room only has rich spiritual energy, while the spiritual pressure training room, as the name suggests, has powerful spiritual pressure that can press the warrior to the limit.
"Okay," Wang Yeping took out a token with numbers engraved on it, "I won't accompany you to the training room No. 7 on the second floor."
"Go and do your business."
In the training room, Zhou Xing felt a huge pressure as soon as he entered, as if his spine was going to be broken. He struggled to straighten his back, but every step was heavy.
Zhao Chen nodded with satisfaction: "Although it is only the spiritual pressure of the second level, it is very rare for you to be able to move freely for the first time.
Now I will demonstrate Dacheng's Golden Body Technique for you, watch out! "
After saying that, Zhao Chen flicked his long sleeves, spread his legs and squatted down. His whole body instantly turned into a light golden color, like gold and stone. His fists danced. The speed was not fast, even a little slow, but there was a faint sound of breaking through the air. It even caused the aura of heaven and earth to linger. Finally, Zhao Chen punched forward, and a "boom" was heard ten meters away, and his spiritual energy surged.
"Are you watching? This relies entirely on the physical body. The punch I just made cannot be resisted even by a spirit martial artist with full defense."
Zhou Xing had already read the records of the Golden Body Technique before coming here. With his powerful memory and almost photographic memory, he was already familiar with the training methods of this martial art. Now that Zhao Chen was demonstrating it live, Zhou Xing wanted to get started. There is almost no difficulty.
Zhou Xing nodded affirmatively, and then started practicing by himself, with Zhao Chen giving guidance.
Three hours passed in the blink of an eye. Zhou Xing performed the Golden Body Technique, pumping out his fists, and a faint golden glow appeared. This was a sign of successfully starting to practice the Golden Body Technique.
Zhao Chen on the side was smiling broadly: "You have gotten started so quickly, you are really a master... Hurry, calm down immediately and take advantage of the opportunity to break through!"
It turned out that Zhao Chen was always paying attention to Zhou Xing's situation and observed that practicing the Golden Body Technique affected the spiritual power in the latter's body. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth tended to be drawn into the body, and he understood that this was an opportunity for the latter to make a breakthrough.
After listening to Zhao Chen's prompt, Zhou Xing immediately broke through with all his heart. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured into his limbs and bones like a trickle, and the breakthrough was quickly completed.
The seventh level of mortal martial arts!
Zhou Xing clenched his fist and felt a powerful force, which was nearly twice as strong as before the breakthrough. He had never made such a big leap before. In addition to the previous improvement in the medicinal bath, it can be said that he has made a breakthrough in a short period of time. In just a few hours, he completed a complete transformation.
"Go out. If you occupy the training room when the time is up, others will be in trouble," Zhao Chen said. "At this point, today's enrollment should have come to an end. I have a hunch that there will be many good seedlings this year. In a month's time, It’s the freshman competition, so you can’t slack off.”
"Follow the teacher's instructions."
Back at Zhao Chen's residence, Zhou Xing got several sets of college uniforms and an identity token, with his information entered in them. These were originally collected by the instructors and distributed to the students after the enrollment was completed, but now Zhou Xing also got them in advance. .
That night, Zhou Xing couldn't sleep, so he practiced all night. The next day, he was not tired at all, but was full of energy. If he had been in the past, he would have died of sleepiness.
Early the next morning, Zhou Xing and Zhao Chen ate together a spiritual meal made from various spiritual plants and elixirs containing spiritual energy, then took the Qiankun bag given by Zhao Chen and prepared to return home.
The Qiankun Bag contains a small space that can be loaded with items, which is more than enough for Zhou Xing to use. The more advanced ones are extremely precious space rings. Just one of them is worth tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of gold coins, even for Zhao Chen It cannot be taken out easily.
When Zhou Xing came out of the main entrance of the college, he was immediately spotted by the elders of the nearby college. Although each of these elders looked almost old, they had very vicious eyes. Although Zhou Xing did not look outstanding, he was still wearing college uniforms. Even though he was dressed in attire, he could still be recognized at a glance as Zhao Chen's new disciple.
