Ci Song took a deep breath and gently pushed the stone door open.
As the stone door slowly opened, a whole new world appeared before his eyes.
Behind the stone gate is a huge courtyard surrounded by layers of stairs. In the center of the courtyard is a golden tower towering into the clouds, which is the Saint's Tower.
Ci Song stood in the courtyard, looking up at the tower, and was extremely shocked.
What comes into view are huge statues one after another that complement the golden towers. Each statue is full of power and majesty, as if telling Ci Song that this is not a place that ordinary people can set foot on.
Among them, the statue located in the center of the tower has a broad and slightly raised forehead, thick and energetic eyebrows, and bright and piercing eyes.
His nose is high and upright, looking straight and strong. Confucius's lips were red, plump and slightly raised, giving people an amiable feeling.
Of course Ci Song recognized the identity of this statue. It was Confucius. He had seen the same statue at the entrance of the college and worshiped towards it.
"In this saint's tower, there should be sculptures of Saint Kong and his seventy-two wise disciples, right?" Ci Song thought to himself.
The golden tower shines in the sun, making people's eyes sting.
Ci Song looked up and felt that his vision was not broad enough. The tower seemed to reach into the sky, reaching into the sky.
He secretly sighed in his heart that this saint's tower contained the wisdom and insights of Yan Sheng's life, and he must understand it carefully.
Ci Song continued to walk up. He walked up the bluestone steps step by step. Every time he stepped on it, his mood became heavier and heavier.
He walked through corridors one after another and saw one stone tablet after another. Each stone tablet was engraved with the thoughts and insights of each disciple.
Just when Ci Song walked to the fifth corridor, a figure appeared in front of him, with crane hair and white robe. It was Ci Song's teacher, Ning Ping'an.
"Ci Song? Why are you here? At this time, shouldn't you be studying with Bai Ye?"
Ning Ping'an's voice was calm, and Ci Song didn't hear any anger.
Ci Song lowered his head and said, "Teacher, I'm here to see you. I have broken through Tongsheng."
When Ci Song said that he had broken through the "Tongsheng", a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Then Ning Pingping said calmly: "Follow me."
Ci Song followed Ning Ping'an through the sixth corridor and came to a huge courtyard.
There is a square pool in the center of the courtyard. There is a four-cornered pavilion in the center of the pool. There is a huge stone table in the pavilion, with two stone benches placed on both sides of the stone table.
Ning Ping An walked to the pavilion and sat down, then pointed to one of the stone benches and said to Ci Song: "Sit down."
After Ci Song sat down, Ning Pingan said straight to the point: "You made a breakthrough in this month, right?"
Ci Song nodded and said, "Yes, teacher, I came here today to learn how to control literary energy."
Ning Ping'an was not surprised at all, as if he had known Ci Song would say this for a long time, and asked calmly: "Do you think you have reached the point where you can learn more advanced knowledge?"
Hearing this, Ci Song became a little unconfident and said hesitantly: "Teacher, I don't know this either."
Ning Ping'an's eyes flashed with appreciation, and then he said: "Okay, I will arrange it. But before that, I want to test your level."
As he spoke, he took out a long piece of light blue jade from his arms, handed it to Ci Song and said, "This is a jade test. Inject your literary spirit into it and you can test your level."
Ci Song took over the jade test and followed Ning Ping'an's instructions to inject his own talents into it.
The originally unremarkable surface of the measuring jade turned out to be like water, and began to roll. After a moment, the measuring jade suddenly exploded, turning into countless tiny powders and splashing out.
Seeing this scene, Ci Song was stunned. What happened? Why did the jade test suddenly explode? I just want to get closer?
Is this the legendary thing that will explode if you get closer?
Ning Ping'an, who was beside him, also lost his composure at this time. His calm face showed such a shocked expression for the first time.
Ning Ping'an, who was beside him, also lost his composure at this time. His calm face showed a shocked look for the first time.
"You actually burst the test jade? Your talent is too much?"
Ning Ping'an slowly said, what he just took out was the test jade used for Tong Sheng level. Its function is very simple, it is to test whether the talent in Tong Sheng's body is sufficient.
If there is enough talent, then the jade will shine brightly, but if there is not enough talent, there will be no change in the jade.
However, the Ci Song in front of him actually burst out of Chai Yu, which means that his talent has exceeded the standard of Tong Sheng, and is even comparable to those students who have broken through Tong Sheng and become scholars.
Ning Ping'an thought to himself: "As expected of his son, he easily accomplished what he did back then."
With this in mind, he said, "Ci Song, your talent has completely reached the standard."
Hearing this, Ci Song did not show joy. Instead, he asked cautiously: "Teacher, do I need to pay for this jade pendant?"
When Ning Ping'an heard this, his face that had just returned to normal turned dark again. He said helplessly: "This is the college's thing, you don't need to compensate."
Ci Song nodded in relief and said, "Then I'll be relieved."
When he took over the jade tester just now, he felt that it was very expensive. If he had to pay for it, it would be a real disaster.
Ning Ping'an took a deep breath, calmed down his mood, and said, "Okay, now let's continue the topic."
Ci Song nodded and said, "Teacher, do you think I have reached the standard?"
"Well, you have more talents than I imagined. If I'm not wrong, you have at least three talents in your Dantian, right?"
Ci Song nodded fiercely. Ning Ping'an was right. Ci Song's Dantian's talent indeed had three threads, the second and third of which were naturally formed when Ci Song solved the problem of cultural backlash.
"Teacher, you are right, I have already gathered three talents in my Dantian."
"How did you gather so much talent not long after you broke through as a child?"
Ning Ping'an looked at Ci Song in confusion, because Ci Song's improvement speed was so fast, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he could reach the sky in one step.
Although it is a good thing to improve quickly, for a child like Ci Song who does not have much background, too fast improvement will make his foundation weak and affect his future development.
