"The second assessment is over."
"Corruption Technique Assessment, First Place: Hedongfang Xu Ke."
Is it Xu Ke again?
In the tea room, after hearing the announcement of the results of the second assessment, all the bosses turned to look at Liu Yongtian, the leader of Hedong Square, who was sitting in the corner.
"Old Liu, didn't you say that he was only good at the activation technique? Didn't you say that his other spells were average? Didn't you say that his potential has been exhausted?"
Xishanfang turned to look at Liu Yongtian, his eyes widened, "You old guy, you don't have a word of truth in your mouth, you are totally fooling people."
"This...hehe..."
Hedongfangzheng Liu Yongtian smiled and shook his head, "Actually, I really didn't know he was so powerful. This kid is really unexpected!"
"Okay, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Everyone in the office rolled their eyes at each other, expressing great contempt for Liu Yongtian's posturing.
Liu Yongtian shook his head helplessly, "What I said is true, why don't you believe it?"
------------------
The third assessment begins.
This time the test is "Rainfall Technique".
Deacon Wang ordered a copper basin to be placed in front of each disciple who participated in the assessment.
"I know that many people think that the Rain Technique is useless. They only practice Rain Technique to cope with the exam."
After the copper basins were distributed, Deacon Wang stood up and glanced at everyone, the expression on his face became very serious.
"As the deacon of the Sinong Palace, I can responsibly tell you that rainfall is one of the most critical spells for planting monks."
"You are only cultivating lower-grade spiritual fields now, and you are planting the most basic crops. Once you are successfully promoted and need to cultivate middle-grade or even high-grade spiritual fields, the importance of rainfall will be revealed."
"For example: a kind of elixir called You Yue Tan has extremely high requirements for planting. Every time you cast the rainfall spell to water it, it must be accurate to the last detail. Otherwise, the cultivation of the elixir will fail."
"There are many, many more examples like this. Therefore, this rain spell assessment will test your ability to control the rain spell!"
"Now, I will announce the test questions."
"Each of you has a copper basin in front of you. I want you to cast rain spell on the copper basin. The amount of rain will be one inch, three minutes and five cents. If the error is within one minute, it will be considered qualified. Everyone has three chances."
Hearing this question, the audience was in an uproar.
This question... is so difficult!
When practicing the Rainfall spell in the past, no one had ever considered it from this perspective. No matter whether the Rainfall spell was cast fast enough or not smoothly enough, who would go out of their way to control the amount of rainfall?
Now, not only do we have to control the amount of rainfall, but we also have to control it down to the last minute, which is really difficult.
Even Xu Ke felt that this question was a bit of a test.
To accurately control the amount of rainfall and ensure that there is one inch, three and a half millimeters of water in the copper basin, you must maintain precise spiritual control at all times during the process of casting the rainfall spell.
Moreover... the volume of this copper basin has not been measured, so it is impossible to accurately judge how much water vapor needs to be collected and how much rain falls if there is one inch, three and a half millimeters of water.
If you want to successfully pass the test in one cast, you must also know the volume of this copper basin. This is the minimum necessary known condition.
Thinking of this, Xu Ke quickly stood up and bowed to Deacon Wang, "Deacon, I have a question."
"oh?"
Deacon Wang glanced at Xu Ke and nodded, "Say!"
"Disciple would like to borrow a ruler. I wonder if it is allowed?"
Xu Ke quickly asked this question.
"Borrow a ruler?"
Deacon Wang heard Xu Ke's question and shook his head, "There is no ruler, you can figure it out yourself."
Borrowing a ruler, don't you just want to measure the size of the copper basin? Do you want to know how much water the copper basin can hold when it is full?
I've given you three chances, why do I need to tell you how much water a copper basin can hold?
After casting the spell for the first time, it will be tested to see if it is qualified. This test result is a benchmark. Compared with this benchmark, it may increase or decrease. There are still two opportunities to cast the spell. How can it pass?
This question seems difficult, but it is not deliberately difficult.
"Any questions?"
After answering Xu Ke's question, Deacon Wang glanced at everyone again and asked again.
The disciples present did not raise any more questions.
"Since there is no problem, let's get started!"
After speaking, Deacon Wang reached out and knocked on the jade chime on the desk, "Now, the assessment begins!"
With an order, everyone cast spells one after another.
The assessment requires that the copper basin contains one inch, three thirds and five millimeters of water. Anyone who is not stupid knows that they must first determine how much water can be filled in the copper basin.
Therefore, some people cast rain spells and filled the copper basin first. Some people cast spells according to their own estimates, aiming at a target of one inch, three minutes and five millimeters of water.
Although the choices are different, no one hopes that they can pass the first cast. Instead, they use it as a benchmark to facilitate the next cast.
Xu Ke did not do this.
Deacon Wang said, "If you don't have a ruler, you have to figure it out yourself." That means I can use other things to replace the ruler.
Not having a ruler is not a problem, don’t I still have a sword?
This sword, with a three-foot-long blade, is an export product of the Sect's Sword Forging Hall. Things that are mass-produced must have standardized sizes, which can be used as a ruler.
Xu Ke reached out and pulled out the long sword from his waist, and used the sword as a ruler to measure the size of the copper basin.
With just a simple calculation, Xu Ke knew the volume of the copper basin. Then, convert one liter of water to two kilograms into units, and immediately calculate how much water is needed for one inch, three minutes and five millimeters of water accumulation.
The answer is already out, so what else is there to say?
With a wave of his hand, Xu Ke cast a "Dacheng" level rainfall spell. This was enough, no higher level was necessary.
The spell is instantaneous, spiritual power spreads out, water vapor is continuously collected, condensed into clouds, and accumulated clouds into rain.
A small group of cumulonimbus clouds hung over the copper basin, and the rain fell in a crashing manner, accurately falling into the copper basin, making a "tick-tock" sound.
The rain keeps falling, and the water in the basin keeps rising.
When the accumulated water had just reached an inch and a half, the cumulonimbus clouds gathered over the copper basin just dissipated, and the last drop of rainwater fell into the copper basin with a "tick" sound.
Seeing this situation, Deacon Wang's eyes flashed with approval.
It turns out that the spells are instantaneous again, and the rainfall spell has also been mastered. Moreover, the spell control and spiritual power manipulation are very smooth, and it feels like being in control. good! good!
He used his sword to mark the copper basin before, probably measuring the size of the copper basin. I don't know if he calculated it accurately. Now, it depends on whether he can pass the test.
Deacon Wang waved his hand, "Start testing!"
Several practicing disciples stepped forward, took out a measuring needle, and began to test the results of the first round of spell casting.
"One inch and six points of water accumulation is unqualified!"
"Nine and three cents of water accumulation is unqualified!"
"Five inches and four inches of water accumulation is unqualified!"
The test results are reported one by one. None of the test results were qualified.
Obviously, everyone had made up their mind to use the first cast as a benchmark for trial and error, and did not expect to pass the assessment in the first round.
When Xu Ke was detected, the situation was different!
"One inch, three minutes and five cents, qualified!"
After the result was reported, everyone looked at Xu Ke as if he had seen a ghost.
The spell passed on the first cast? And it fully meets the standards, exactly!
how did you do that?
