"Senior brother, I don't like the master anymore."
"Haha, why? A few days ago, weren't you looking forward to Master coming to Yunzhou every day?"
"My master is still the same as before. He curses people every day. I'm already higher than him in cultivation, but he still scolds me. It's too much."
The little kid muttered, with an angry look on his face.
Chu Chen laughed dumbly: "Did you also say that in front of Master?"
The kid said confidently: "Well! Senior brother, didn't you say that those who have mastered the realm of immortality come first? My cultivation level is higher than the master's. He is not polite to me and even scolds me. Senior brother, please give me your opinion. Is the master going too far? …”
"Hahahaha~"
Chu Chen smiled.
Good guy, if you have advanced in cultivation, you still go to the master and say that those who have mastered are first. If you don't get scolded, who will get scolded?
Just as Han Chen said, Yunzhou Taoist Temple notified all the chiefs of Taoist temples across the state to rush to the city that night.
The three-year term is about to expire, and a lively mountain chief meeting is about to be held at Yunzhou Taoist Temple.
As the head of Wanquan County, Chu Chen was naturally invited.
As a result, Chu Chen and his master, Taoist Xu Ping, stayed in Yunzhou City, while Qingying returned to Wanquan County with Hu Dali and Guang Gengsheng.
Two days later, Yunzhou Taoist Temple.
In a meeting hall, the mountain chiefs of the eight major avenues in the southwest were invited and took their seats one by one.
"Fellow Taoist Yunshui, your disciple is really outstanding among the mountain chiefs of the county and Taoist monasteries. He has only been around for a few years. I think back then he was still a young boy who needed your and my protection. In a few years, I am afraid that I will all He was caught up.”
Taoist priests Han Chen and Xu Ping were invited to attend the mountain chief meeting.
The two of them saw Chu Chen sitting among a group of county and Taoist mountain chiefs, chatting with people from time to time. He was not embarrassed at all, calm and calm, which was quite novel.
This scene is both harmonious and somewhat inconsistent.
What was harmonious was that Chu Chen was perfectly integrated into a group of veteran fifth-grade strong men. What was inconsistent was that Chu Chen was young and energetic, and did not fit in with the monks who were generally over a decade old.
Taoist priest Xu Ping smiled, feeling proud and a little emotional.
Unknowingly, the eldest disciple Chu Chen has taken charge of his own business and grown into a towering tree. He no longer needs his master to protect him from wind and rain, and even pave the way for him in turn.
In the past two days, in addition to gathering with Han Chen, his disciple Chu Chen also took him to visit Master Qingzhu of the Yunzhou Taoist Academy.
Xianting intends to let him enter the Taoist Academy to teach Taoism, so the head of the Yunzhou Taoist Academy is his immediate superior.
When he first arrived, it was undoubtedly a great opportunity to meet his immediate boss. He was still a little nervous about visiting his boss.
However, what he didn't expect was that layman Qingzhu was very warm and hospitable to their master and disciple.
Especially when facing him in private, layman Qingzhu sounded quite envious, and one by one he accepted a good disciple, Yunyun.
Taoist Xu Ping was dumbfounded. He never thought that one day he would be envied by a monk with great supernatural powers.
"Zhenyi is indeed growing up, and I have a sense of urgency as a master."
While Taoist Master Xu Ping was overjoyed, he couldn't help but remember that last night Master Qingzhu seemed to highly praise his ability to teach his disciples. He also said that the Xianting Central Committee had a vision and sent a rare talent to Yunzhou Taoist Academy.
After all the compliments, he was embarrassed, a little guilty, and very stressed.
My family knows their own affairs.
He was indeed the one who taught the eldest disciple Chu Chen, but he was self-aware. He was just letting go of things a lot of the time, and most of the eldest disciple's abilities today depended on himself.
Han Chen laughed loudly when he heard this and gloated:
"Fellow Taoist Yunshui, it's just starting now. The real sense of urgency will come when you enter the Taoist temple and serve as the mountain chief."
Taoist Xu Ping: "..."
While the two were chatting and laughing, outside the palace, there were messengers from the Immortal Court singing and drinking.
"The Heavenly Master has arrived!"
Mr. Mingjing, Master Yulou, Taoist Chonglou and other senior officials from Xianting and Bazhou Taoist Temple all arrived.
Everyone in the hall stood up to greet Mr. Tianshi Mingjing, Master Yulou and others.
After paying homage, layman Qingzhu presided over the Shanzhang meeting.
On the one hand, the mountain chief conference represents the Immortal Court of Heaven to the mountain chiefs of each county's Taoist temple to establish Taoist temples. (This chapter is not finished, click on the next page to continue)
He fully affirmed the contribution of cultivation and gave deep condolences to all the Taoist mountain chiefs.
The Taoist monasteries in each county were built from scratch, little by little, and the chiefs of each monastery were indispensable.
On the other hand, the three-year term is about to expire, and the results of each Taoist temple will also be released.
When every county Taoist leader reported to his superiors, he said that his Taoist temple was the cradle of fairy seedlings and had cultivated many good seedlings. He asked for money and support from his superiors.
However, people are afraid of comparisons with others, and goods are afraid of comparisons with goods.
After a three-year term of office, each state and county can compare how many good seedlings they have cultivated and how well they have performed. At that time, the capable will be rewarded and the mediocre will be dismissed, and no one will have anything to say.
After the speeches of Mr. Mingjing, Master Yulou and others, the chiefs of Taoist temples in the eight southwest states, such as Qingzhu layman and Chonglou Taoist, reported to Mr. Tianshi Mingjing on the achievements of preaching and education in various places.
Mr. Ming Jing has already known the situation in various places in advance and has no worries in his heart.
After some procedures, the Shanzhang meeting soon ushered in the highlight - the list of performance evaluation awards for each county and county college was released, hung up, and made public. Being on the commendation list means that three years of hard work in preaching and teaching has been recognized by the Celestial Court.
Not only is there a huge reward, it is also a great honor. For a time, the whole place was shocked.
Not only the chiefs of various Taoist temples who were looking forward to the results of their own Taoist temples rushed to see the results, but also the guests from the Celestial Court who came to watch the ceremony stretched their necks to see the results, looking forward to it.
Han Chen and Xu Ping are no exception.
The performance evaluation of major county and Taoist colleges is similar to the ranking list of the imperial examination. There are three rankings. The three lists select the outstanding ones from the Taoist colleges in each county in the eight states. Being on this list means that they have been recognized and rewarded by the Immortal Court, and they have taught and taught well.
The second list is admitted from the third list, and the leaders of each state are selected, one from each of the eight southwest states;
The first list is to admit the leaders of the eight southwest states. There is only one, and he is the well-deserved first place in the eight states Taoist Academy.
"Fellow Taoist Yunshui, the results are about to be released, are you nervous?"
Han Chen joked with a smile.
Taoist priest Xu Ping pursed his lips: "Why am I nervous? I have confidence in my disciple, and he will definitely not fail the exam."
Han Chen smiled meaningfully: "I didn't say Ling Xiao would fail. In my opinion, he is very likely to shine."
When Taoist Master Xu Ping heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry.
As a master, he naturally hopes that his apprentice will achieve great results, be famous, be praised by the Immortal Court, etc.
However, Xianting intended to let him serve as the head of a Taoist temple in a certain county, which made him feel even more pressured.
The apprentice did a great job, Zhu Yu was in front, and as the master, I couldn't hold back.
The Immortal Court Awards list starts from the last list, which is the third list.
"Crash!"
Qingzhu layman held the Immortal Court's decree in his hand. Under the gaze of everyone, he smiled and punched out a magic formula, and then the decree in his hand flew out, hung in the air, and then slowly spread out.
The commendation decree was spread out, and the names of Taoist temples were printed in front of everyone's eyes. Cangzhou Guqin Taoist Temple, Cangzhou Jiayuan Taoist Temple, Cangzhou Qingxi Taoist Temple, Lanzhou Lanxin Taoist Temple... Yunzhou Guluo Taoist Temple, Yunzhou Wanquan Taoist Temple, Yunzhou Lanyun Taoist Temple...
One by one, Taoist temple names appeared on the awards list.
There are a total of thirty-four places. When divided evenly, there are almost four places in each state.
However, the quotas are obviously not evenly distributed. Some states have five or six on the list, while others only have two or three. The gap is huge.
In the hall, there was an immediate exclamation and commotion. The director of the county Taoist school was proud to see him on the list of commendations in his Taoist school's list. He high-fived and made friends with you, saying that he was honored.
But the mountain chiefs who did not see their own Taoist temple buried their heads in shame one by one. They were embarrassed to talk to their colleagues. They only felt that they had failed to live up to the expectations of the Immortal Court and buried their heads low.
"Senior brother, you've won, hahaha, senior brother, you've won!" The kid had sharp eyes. He saw the six characters "Yunzhou Wanquan Taoist Temple" on the list at a glance. He was so excited that his knees were already numb. It's soft. If it weren't for the inappropriate situation here, it would have kowtowed immediately to beg for fragrance.
"Okay, senior brother, I saw it.
Chu Chen was not surprised at all that he was on the list and was very calm, which was in sharp contrast to the excited kid.
(This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue)
Seeing that his senior brother was too calm, the little kid felt bored. He turned his head and saw Master Xu Ping in the audience seat, and he quickly sent a message with his spiritual consciousness. "Sir, senior brother is on the Immortal Court Award List, hahaha~"
"I saw."
Although Taoist Master Xu Ping said he was not nervous, he always kept an eye on the awards list. As soon as the third list was released, he immediately saw the "Yunzhou Wanquan Taoist Academy" run by his apprentice.
Han Chen also noticed it immediately and said with a smile:
"Sure enough, I am on the list, fellow Taoist Yunshui, congratulations."
"Haha~ Fellow Daoist Han, my disciple is right here. You say hello to my disciple."
"Hahahaha~"
When Taoist Xu Ping saw Han Chen gloating about his misfortune, he shook his head and was quite speechless. Seeing his apprentice on the Immortal Court Award List, he was naturally extremely happy and gratified.
No master is unhappy if his apprentice is successful.
However, he became a little nervous when he thought that he might be compared with his apprentice in the future.
Now, he only hopes that the mountain chiefs of various county and Taoist monasteries can be more patient and not let his apprentices overwhelm him casually.
In this way, he will be less stressed in the future.
As long as he works hard to teach and cultivate talents, I believe he will also hope to lead his Taoist Academy to the list of awards in the future.
"Fellow Taoist Yunshui, do you think Ling Xiao can win the title of Yunzhou and be ranked second?"
Han Chen knew Taoist Xu Ping's thoughts and secretly found it funny, so he couldn't help but ask jokingly.
"I don't know, but if there is a crouching tiger, hidden dragon in the Immortal Court, there must be someone outside..."
Speaking of which, it's really interesting.
At the beginning, Taoist Priest Xu Ping was afraid that his eldest disciple would not be able to compare with the veteran fifth-grade strongman from the southwest states, Chief Shan, and he was secretly worried for a long time.
Just three years later, his mind changed. Instead, he became worried about the lack of strength of the chiefs of the major states, fearing that they would not be able to compare with his apprentices.
"It is rumored that the mountain chiefs of all the great monasteries are the Taoist true cultivators carefully selected by the Immortal Court. Among them are many of the contemporary leaders of the great sects of the Immortal Sect. You will not be easily compared to me by my apprentice, will you?"
Taoist priest Xu Ping secretly cursed.
While the two were talking, Master Qingzhu held the Immortal Court's decree, made a hand and recited a mantra, and released the list again.
The second list admits the leaders of each major academy in eight states. There are only eight places. The number is very small. It is obvious at a glance. Don't even look for it.
As soon as the list is released, you can see it at a glance.
"I got it! Hahaha, I got it again. Senior brother, I got it again. Sir, look!"
The little ghost boy's spiritual voice sounded very loudly in the hearts of Chu Chen and Taoist Xu Ping.
On the second list, the leader of Yunzhou Taoist Academy, Wanquan Taoist Academy, suddenly appeared again, with ten gilded characters, extremely dazzling.
"Fellow Taoist Yunshui, congratulations, your apprentice is on the list again. Leader of Yunzhou, tusk tusk, this is really great."
Han Chen suppressed his smile and congratulated Taoist Xu Ping again.
A smile appeared on Taoist Master Xu Ping's face.
As expected, he was afraid of whatever might come his way.
It is true that his great disciple Chu Chen won the crown of Yunzhou Taoist Academy, surpassing Yunzhou Grand Academy and surpassing those veteran fifth-level experts who have been in the fifth-level Taoist practice for many years, have profound attainments in classics, and advanced Taoist practices.
"this…"
Taoist priest Xu Ping had mixed emotions, and his mood was complicated.
Of course, the most important thing is that he is getting more and more stressed. After receiving the award from the Immortal Court, he worked hard and might still be able to do it, but to become the leader of Yunzhou and defeat the chiefs of all the great avenues in the state, the difficulty is not just a little bit more difficult, but several times more difficult.
Just as Taoist Xu Ping was thinking, another burst of exclamations erupted in the hall.
Taoist Master Xu Ping raised his head with intention, and immediately saw layman Qingzhu releasing a list of the leaders of the Eighth Prefecture Taoist Academy.
"I got it, wow wow wow hahaha, senior brother got it again, master, look at it, senior brother is on the list again, number one among the eight states!"
The little devil shouted crazily, it was a joy. I couldn't imagine how much incense it could take out at this moment.
Xu Ping Daoxing pursed his lips and wanted to say something, but when he said it again, he just forced out a smile.
When Han Chen gave high fives and congratulated Chu Chen's spiritual consciousness, he also took a moment to joke to Taoist Xu Ping on the side:
"Yun (this chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue)
Fellow Taoist Water Master, your disciple is so powerful and you are a good teacher. In the future, it will not be difficult to become the leader of one state, not just of eight states, right? "
Taoist priest Xu Ping: “…”
Although he knew that Han Chen was deliberately teasing him, Taoist Xu Ping also understood that many people would definitely think so in the future, and even the Immortal Court had some expectations in this regard.
But...the problem is that he is really not good at it.
Taoist priest Xu Ping was quite distressed.
Being the leader of Yunzhou is a huge challenge for him, and winning the title among eight states is even more unimaginable.
too difficult.
Taoist Xu Ping had a sad face and felt worried in his heart.
Isn’t this embarrassing!
Taoist priest Xu Ping wanted to complain to the master of Xianting.
I really don't know how to teach disciples, and I haven't made much achievements in preaching and teaching. Let me guard a city and be in charge of the affairs of demons and gods...
At this moment, he regretted taking the initiative to apply for transfer to Guanwaizhou County. First, he was informed by his own ears that Xiantong had come to show off his power, and then Xianting's "back stab" was rushed to the shelves, and he had high expectations for him.
It’s nice to stay in Qingzhou, why bother coming all the way to Yunzhou!
