Nan Yi returned to the attic of the prison. After a while, Song Zhong came down from the second floor to look for Nan Yi.
Nan Yi asked curiously: "Is the academy settled?"
"Not yet. There are three academies to choose from. I said I would like to come down and discuss it with you, Brother Nan, before making a decision." Song Zhong smiled and said, "Gentlemen, I agreed."
Song Zhong thought clearly. Neither Xiaoyao Academy nor Yin Yang Academy, which he was interested in, took a fancy to him. Then, instead of making decisions on their own, the remaining academies should listen to Nan Yi's suggestions.
After all, Nan Yi had awakened to the gift of supernatural power and officially joined the Wuxiang Immortal Sect. He must have a better understanding of the specific situations of other academies.
"Now, I can choose to join one of the Demon Slaughter Academy, Shuiyue Academy, and Creation Academy." Song Zhong named the three academies that were interested in him.
Nan Yi thought about it.
The Demon-Slaying Academy, corresponding to the Department of Punishment, has a crime detection department. In the mortal world, it pursues and arrests criminal gangsters who have wanted warrants; in the practice world, it is active in the front line of slaying demons and slaying conspirators.
Shuiyue Academy corresponds to the Ministry of Military Affairs, either joining the Military Guard Department or the Wu'an Department. Although he prefers to defend one place and is not active on the front line, he still focuses on martial arts and has experienced many killings and battles.
The Creation Academy corresponds to the Department of Artifacts and Creation of the Ministry of Industry. Needless to say, the Department of Creation is mainly focused on refining weapons and creating things; while the Department of Creation focuses on theoretical research. In addition to refining weapons, they are also tinkering with talisman formations and so on.
Nan Yi said, "Brother Song, if you want to pursue martial arts, you can consider the first two schools. But if you have a calm temperament, you can also consider Creation Academy and go in the direction of investigating things."
Song Zhong nodded slowly.
How can a man be a real man and not admire martial arts?
If it were ever, he might actually consider joining Demon Slayer or Suigetsu.
But through Nan Yi, Song Zhong already knew a little bit about the world of Shengui cultivation.
This put Song Zhong in a bit of a dilemma.
When mortals fight, in addition to skill, bravery is more important. Even if you lack skills, as long as you are brave enough and try to trade injuries for injuries, it is not impossible to fight.
But in the battle of gods and tricks, it is difficult to rely on bravery and character to influence the situation. One is one, two is two; if you can't win, you can't win.
Nan Yi saw Song Zhong's hesitation and gave an example: "I have heard a saying before, what is swordsmanship? In addition to the mysterious realm of swordsmanship and sword skills, we can also focus on the word "sword". From the meaning of sword Make a start. "
"For example, if you use the art of mechanism to make a big sword of mechanism, fight with others, and easily win with the help of the mechanism, you can also be regarded as a master of swordsmanship."
After hearing this, Song Zhong sighed silently.
He really admired martial arts. He even read "The Legend of Two Dragons of Da Li" written by Nan Yi before the annual exam and was quite good at it. However, his performance in the annual exam was slightly poor.
But admiration is not obsession.
It's okay to read martial arts novels, but Song Zhong was resistant to being asked to be a warrior, or even a military attache who had to fight with gods and tricks.
He chose to follow his heart and choose stability.
"Then follow what Brother Nan said and join the Creation Academy."
Song Zhongfu went up to the second floor to look over the sign of Zaohua Academy.
Du Yuanfu, who is in charge of welcoming new students at Du'e Academy this year, had previously detected Nan Yi's arrival with his spiritual sense, and accidentally overheard a chat between Mo Yuange and Nan Yi, and realized that Nan Yi was the candidate who wrote Luo Tuo Xiangzi.
He also came out of the attic of the prison and chatted with Nan Yi for a few words.
"My little friend, you are interested in Wuxiang Academy. If you want to enter Wuxiang Academy, I can't say anything. However, when you graduate from school and seek an official position, you can also consider joining the Morality Department of our Ministry of Etiquette."
"The Morality Department also needs talents like you."
Nan Yi chatted and laughed.
The etiquette department is divided into the Diplomatic Department and the Moral Department. It goes without saying that the Department of Foreign Affairs is responsible for foreign affairs. The Morality Department is internally responsible for determining the moral education of officials in various places, that is, the ideological and style tendencies in herder policies.
Based on the background of mutual constraints among various ministries, the more officials in the Morality Department can find faults with other officials when they are moral, the better their own achievements will be.
Therefore, the Morality Department is also a department that offends people, and is often jokingly nicknamed the "Department of Immorality."
Nan Yi had no choice but to say: "Students will think carefully about seeking an official position after graduation in a few years."
Unlike chatting with Mo Yuange, chatting with Du Yuanfu made Nan Yi feel slightly embarrassed.
Not only because Nan Yi rejected Du'e Academy, but also because Nan Yi and Du Yuanfu were not familiar with each other, they just met each other.
It was Du Yuanfu who followed Du Er's order and didn't know Nan Yi at all.
Unlike Mo Yuange and Mo Rufeng, they not only had the fate of invigilating and grading exams, but also knew some information about Nan Yi in advance.
Nan Yi could only think secretly: Du Yuanfu is worthy of being from Du'e Academy. He is thick-skinned and forced himself to be familiar with him.
Fortunately, Song Zhong was just going to finalize his intention for the academy and would come back soon. Nan Yi said goodbye to Du Yuanfu and accompanied Song Zhong out of the county mansion.
Song Zhong chose the Creation Academy, but because he was a mortal, he could not enter the academy in advance. He had to wait until February 1st to attend classes at the Creation Academy.
The two of them returned to the inn.
Then, Nan Yi mentioned the need for a quiet room last night and asked Song Yushu to help find rent.
Song Yushu, the father of Song Dynasty, rented a private house for Nan Yi as a quiet room when he went out to look at the house this morning.
After Nan Yi thanked Song Yushu, he went to the quiet room to practice in the afternoon.
He has already studied and understood "Little Wuxiang Jue".
The first stage of practice in this life is to refine and transform Qi, which is divided into three levels: storing essence, nourishing Qi, and transforming the ordinary.
Let’s not talk about the next two stages for now. During the essence storage period, the essence is to change one’s own physique.
Between heaven and earth, there are many sources of energy. All supernatural beings are basically related to Yuan Qi.
The so-called practice is the process of drawing source energy into the body and refining it into magic power.
However, among the many sources of Qi, there are many who conflict with each other. A monk can only choose one source of energy to enter his body.
But the source of Qi's supernatural power is not something that a mortal body can easily accommodate.
Just like Nan Yi's previous life, if he directly energized the human body, he might be electrocuted to death, and it would not be possible for people to directly control the electric energy with the physical body.
In this world, rashly drawing in the source of Qi will only lead to sudden death.
After countless years of improvement, the first step in practice is to change the body constitution.
After sensing a specific source of energy, you can slowly change your physique with the help of breath sensing and visualization, so that your physique matches the specific source of energy to avoid sudden death.
This level is called "hiding essence" and must be visualized every day to hide and refine the essence. It is purely a matter of water grinding and there is no trickery.
Wuxiang students, such as Qin Nanyi and other teaching assistants, can be regarded as outstanding if they can perfect their essence within three years, enter the Qi nourishing stage, and reach the middle level of the Yellow rank.
Most people enter the officialdom after graduation, and with the help of the official body's gathering momentum and blessings, they are able to practice in the Qi-nourishing period, and even polish their foundation and accumulate foundation.
Moreover, even if the essence storage period is complete, it does not mean that the source energy can be successfully carried. There is still a risk of sudden death after receiving the source energy into the body, but the risk is much smaller.
Therefore, there are many students in major academies every year, just like Bi Shengke, the magistrate of Nanshan County, who are qualified to try practice, but in the end they never dare to take that step because they are worried about the risk of sudden death.
However, this is for mortals who have not awakened their innate magical powers.
Those who awaken their natural supernatural powers by chance have essentially overcome the risk of sudden death and have access to supernatural powers.
Therefore, Nan Yi only practiced quietly for one day, introduced the phaseless energy into his body, merged it with his own innate magical power, and set a method in the nine palaces. This was considered as a step past the essence storage stage and reached the Qi nourishing stage.
On January 15th, the fourth year of Tianqi, Nan Yi officially entered Taoism.
He updated a wave of his own panel based on the newly acquired knowledge of practice.
