At the beginning, there were only a few people talking about Gu Qingyang. But later, as time went by, more and more people talked about him.
Because the people who come to participate in this entrance test are indeed the children of some powerful forces, and their backgrounds and growth environments are different from ordinary people.
In their eyes, allowing someone like Gu Qingyang to participate in this test was a complete insult to them.
If they came here to complete a feat similar to a carp leaping over the Dragon Gate, the last threshold of this test is the Dragon Gate.
And they are the so-called carp.
Then, what is Gu Qingyang who looks like a beggar at this moment? Can it also be considered a carp? Is Gu Qingyang worthy?
If he is really worthy, wouldn't it be an insult to the many people who participated in the test? They can't stand this kind of thing.
Therefore, in the end, those first few voices aimed at Gu Qingyang became a spark in this sea of fire.
However, Gu Qingyang never moved.
From beginning to end, he sat cross-legged in his square, just sitting quietly, looking like he was meditating.
But in fact, no one knows what he is doing, and no one can understand him at this time.
This is also normal.
At this time, it was the time when Shenlu Academy held the entrance test for new students. Of all the people who come here, who doesn’t want to join Shenlu Academy?
Among them, who among them is not squeezing his head out, just like squeezing in, wanting to join Shenlu Academy as early as possible and become a disciple of Shenlu Academy?
Other things besides that.
For them, those things actually have no special meaning. It's just that I was forced by the environment and atmosphere to be affected by them.
That's why these people's moods become extremely impatient and abnormal. And at this moment that makes them anxious.
A person like Gu Qingyang, dressed in rags and slovenly, who looked like he didn't belong to this world at all, suddenly appeared.
This will naturally have an impact on them.
However, while they were surprised by Gu Qingyang's calmness. Their deepest personalities and their truest side are also clearly revealed.
Who is kind, who is evil, and who is superior, you can see them all from Gu Qingyang's perspective.
The real reason why Gu Qingyang didn't care about the insults and offensive words of these people was because he really didn't care about them.
A person lives one life and practices one life.
What is most important?
Is it strength, cultivation, or state of mind? What should one pursue in life? What code of conduct should we use to restrain ourselves?
For these questions, Gu Qingyang has already found the answers. Therefore, he has been practicing with all his strength.
What he wants is to one day be able to overcome all the obstacles, finish the things that have not been done, and do everything that should be done.
Otherwise, he is willing to bear all the pain.
And compared to the pain he was carrying, what were these mere insults? Insults and curses, what does it do to me?
At this moment, Gu Qingyang was just waiting. He is well aware of most of the rules of Shenlu Academy, which is an advantage derived from his past life memories.
Just because of that small impression in his long-term memory, he already knew who was in the academy before he arrived at Shenlu Academy.
Therefore, facing so many people who came to participate in the test, Gu Qingyang would not deliberately ignore these people.
He knows it very well.
Among these people, only a certain number of people are qualified to become disciples of Shenlu Academy. As for the others, they all had no chance of joining the academy.
And if you want to enter the Shenlu Academy, you will naturally need to go through a complicated test. Among them, the life stone can only be regarded as an appetizer.
After the destiny stone, there are three places: Lotus Heart Pond, Kudao Cliff, and Chengdao Field, waiting for the testers later.
in these levels.
The function of the life stone is probably the simplest. Because its function is just to test the talents of those testers.
What this Lotus Heart Pond is going to test is the tester's heart, his state of mind, and his Taoist heart. Shenlu Academy chooses candidates based on heart.
If someone comes to participate in the test, their character is destined to be inconsistent with the purpose of Shenlu Academy. Then such a person has no chance of joining Shenlu Academy.
Therefore, the first level of testing talent is actually not a big deal.
After all, talent is still a factor that orthodox forces cannot escape and must be looked at.
But the character of mind is invisible, ranking before strength.
This shows that the decision-makers of Shenlu Academy are interested in the direction of future disciples.
However, after Lotus Heart Pond, there are two places called Kudao Cliff and Cheng Daochang. It was not a simple place, but a dangerous place.
The purpose of these two existences is to allow future disciples of Shenlu Academy to understand the direction of their own path.
The other is to help the future Shenlu Academy disciples to have a place where they can show off their talents during the test.
Rumor has it that he has to wait until the last hurdle, which is when he becomes a dojo. The bone cultivators who enter must create a spiritual body in the dojo.
Those who succeed in creating a spiritual body can directly send the spirit body into the adult dojo and participate in the trials in the adult dojo instead of the original body.
The advantage of this is that even if the spirit body participating in the trial fails, it will eventually end up falling.
The main body will still not be seriously affected. At most, the rewards will be slightly worse than those of those who succeed.
However, if the tester fails to condense the spirit body successfully. Then, in order to pass the test, the tester can only enter the dojo in his own body.
By that time.
It would be okay if the tester can win. In that case, the tester will not only get generous rewards, but also gain unique insights.
But if he participated in the trial with his true body, he failed. Then, in the end, the tester will be seriously injured even if he does not die.
Of course, the most miserable outcome would be to die during the test.
And if this is really the case, then there will be no other stories happening next.
After all, there is no resurrection after death. Although there are many methods of resurrection in this world. But not everyone can use those heaven-defying magical powers.
Throughout the ages, practitioners have said that all living beings are equal. This sentence is indeed an extremely idealistic sentence.
The word equality also seems extremely illusory in this world where the jungle prevails.
In Gu Qingyang's view, the only state that can make all living beings equal is death.
In this world, there are people who are born rich and powerful, and they are supreme geniuses. There are also people who are born into poverty and are born into extremely lowly status.
This is not something that those people can decide by themselves. Even the fate of the rest of their lives is not something that they can decide by themselves.
Therefore, all living things, including humans, can only feel what true equality is when they face death.
Except for a very small number of creatures, most creatures, including humans, have always had only one life.
Therefore, those who wanted to enter the Shenlu Academy in the past generations would be extremely upset when facing the last hurdle.
At that time, they would often try their best to condense their spiritual bodies.
Because they themselves also know very well what kind of consequences they will face once the spiritual body fails to condense.
However, that is only something that a very small number of testers need to consider. Because the vast majority of testers will be blocked in front of the Lotus Heart Pond.
Asked, not terrible.
Because some people can see through and see through their own spiritual path at a glance and see the path that belongs to them.
So people like that always know exactly what they should be working hard for.
In contrast, asking about the heart is difficult.
This is a very strange thing. Because there are many people who clearly know what they want, but they cannot clearly see their own hearts.
Gu Qingyang is waiting.
What he was waiting for was for all those people to leave. He knew that the so-called limited number of places was actually a false reason.
The Game of Asking the Heart is an extremely terrifying game. There have been very few people who can pass this game throughout the ages, because very few people along the way can see through everything.
Therefore, no matter how many people gathered in front of the life stone, no matter how crazy those people were in front of the life stone, Gu Qingyang would not look at them.
Because Gu Qingyang knew.
These people are destined not to be his opponents, let alone his mortal enemies.
And as time goes by, as expected, many people really come out of it.
Those people seemed more like pure losers.
They looked as if they had just experienced a war, but had failed again in the war. They were dejected and annoyed.
Seeing this, the crowd gathered here slowly lost their noise. They had heard of some things about Shenlu Academy.
This also includes the matter of Lotus Heart Pond.
However, they did not expect that the Lotus Heart Pond would be so terrifying and would actually become a major obstacle to their success.
"Look, that's the young master of the Southern Python family in Central Continent, Nan Python Ming."
"It is rumored that this person is one of the top ten young geniuses in Central Continent. He is an extremely extraordinary person."
"Shh, shut up!"
"He is about to touch the life stone. Let's see if this person is the same as the rumors."
…
After a while, there was a burst of discussion among the crowd. And this burst of sound also completely broke the original silence.
In just a moment, many testers focused their gazes directly on a young man.
However, I saw that the young man looked to be in his early twenties, with long black hair, a regular appearance and a burly figure.
Looking from a distance, his temperament is like a dragon going out to sea or a tiger descending from the mountain, unruly and a bit arrogant.
The moment this person appeared, Gu Qingyang stopped meditating. He also opened his eyes and focused his gaze on this person.
Looking at temperament alone, Gu Qingyang felt that the other party had the capital to compete with him.
However, he had to go and see whether this person was a real dragon or a fake dragon.
And the next moment, when Nan Mangming pressed his hand on the life stone, the life stone also shone brightly.
In just a moment, the light of this life stone has illuminated the entire world, which can be said to be extremely bright.
"this--"
At the same time, such a scene also made all the bone cultivators present dumbfounded. A shocking feeling came from their hearts.
Vaguely, they seemed to understand who they were trying to fight against.
However, after Gu Qingyang saw how extraordinary this man was, he unknowingly revealed a smile that was not easily noticeable.
And the reason why Gu Qingyang was like this.
It was also because, before, he had always thought that the Shenlu Academy was probably the same as what he remembered in his previous life and would not give him any surprises.
But now it seems that he came to Shenlu Academy at the right time after all. At least, there are still people here who are qualified to be his opponents.
But at the same time, some people have noticed Gu Qingyang's smile and feel that Gu Qingyang is smiling now, and they are also scornful.
In the eyes of such people.
Looking at the entire Central Continent, Nan Mangming is a peerless genius, but what is this sloppy guy in front of them?
They didn't think that the ragged, slovenly guy in front of them could be considered worthy of the stage.
"I remembered that it is rumored that Nan Python Ming has been born with a first-grade life bone since his life bone awakening. He does not need to practice the first level."
"Yes, it seems that he broke through to the second realm and officially started practicing not long after awakening his life bone."
"And there are rumors that when he was practicing in the Bone Sacrifice Realm, when he made breakthroughs, the resources he used for each breakthrough were top-notch."
…
"Now, logically speaking, he should be a bone cultivator in the bone refining realm, right?"
"Well, I can't say, he is now a bone cultivator at the ninth level of bone refining."
"Hmph, with his qualifications, it's not an exaggeration to say that he has half a foot in the phase bone realm, right? Everyone, please think about it carefully."
"Look, that's Lan Mudie. Rumor has it that this girl is also one of the top ten geniuses in Central Continent!"
"What?"
…
For a long time the roar of the crowd did not die away completely. Because the so-called geniuses are constantly emerging.
If anything, the previous test still felt boring. Well, after these geniuses appeared and showed their talents one by one.
The whole scene began to slowly boil. Whether they are humans or other creatures, they all worship the strong.
Therefore, no matter what level these people are at, they are still quite excited when they witness the birth of a strong person.
However, just when the crowd was becoming more and more excited, a foot kicked Gu Qingyang at an inappropriate time.
“A good dog stays out of the way.”
A voice sounded, and the speaker seemed to be a woman, but the woman must not be very old, because the voice was very clear.
It's a pity that such a beautiful voice is used to express such malice.
However, this woman's words made Gu Qingyang, who was kicked in the back, frown in an instant.
However, there was not much anger in Gu Qingyang's heart.
The current Gu Qingyang is really not angry at all. Because he was wondering who the woman behind him was.
Gu Qingyang can be sure that this is definitely the first time he has met this woman. Otherwise, he would not be completely impressed by it.
However, the other person's aura made him feel very familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere once, or even many times.
"People from Mo Luo Pavilion?"
After a moment, Gu Qingyang smiled.
Because he had already recognized the woman behind him who was deliberately causing trouble for him.
He firmly believed that this aura was definitely from Moluo Pavilion, and there was absolutely nothing wrong with it.
"Hmph, it's good to know."
"Then do you know who I am?"
He stood up, turned around, smiled, and when he asked that question, Gu Qingyang completed these little things one by one, and then he began to stare at the woman.
At the same time, his behavior was a provocation in the eyes of this woman. Therefore, this woman did not hesitate to release her pressure.
Bone refining realm, nine levels of cultivation.
Such a breath soon shocked the entire scene. Everyone present was surprised by this woman's cultivation.
However, at this moment, Gu Qingyang still had that fake smile on his face, as if everything had nothing to do with him, displaying a cynical attitude.
"you--"
"What are you, what am I?"
…
