For the second of Ye Ye's three trials, Liu Ru walked over with Su Ziye.
But there were no obstacles on the way.
Compared with the first test, there are many fewer candidates in the second test. That is to say, Liu Ru helped a large number of candidates pass the test in Xuanzi Hall. However, according to the normal examination rhythm, there are still only a few who can pass the first test.
There were eight halls in the first trial, but only three in the second trial.
If we follow this analogy, there may only be one left in the third trial.
Liu Ru raised his head and looked at the examination hall in front of him. It was still made of ice and snow, but the scale was much larger than the previous ice and snow corridor.
Because this time the examination hall looks more like a huge amphitheater.
This time, Zhou Yi was not with him, only Su Ziye was with Liu Ru.
"Let's go." Liu Ru said, and then stepped in first.
The first feeling you feel when you step into this ice and snow hall is the coolness.
Very cool.
It was still a long corridor for candidates to pass through. After being inspected by members of the Student Government Association, the two were able to set foot in it.
However, as soon as he entered, Liu Ru couldn't help but be shocked by the scenery in front of him.
Because she saw a blue sky.
From the outside, it looks like this is a closed theater, but after walking in, what you see is a peaceful blue sky and white clouds.
Liu Xi looked back subconsciously, only to find that Su Ziye was no longer around.
But Liu Ru is already somewhat used to it.
With green grass underfoot and blue sky and white clouds above, it seemed like an extremely empty grassland, and candidates in twos and threes were scattered on this grassland, which was much larger than it looked outside.
Not even the conspicuous potted plants like those I tried last time.
However, Liu Ru still recalled what the topic of the second test was.
The topic of the second test was wind, rain, thunder and lightning.
However, there is bright sunshine in front of us, and there is no rain, fog or haze.
"Hello everyone, I am still the examiner of the Japanese Language and Literature Department."
What sounded above the head was still Zhou Yi's voice.
Sometimes Liu Ru would also wonder why Zhou Yi was always entrusted with important tasks when he seemed so ordinary. At least when it came to facial recognition, this senior Zhou Yi was really good at it.
But thinking back, at least Senior Zhou Yi was able to complete his tasks well every time.
"You must have heard the topic of this exam, which is wind, rain, thunder and lightning."
"Next, we will randomly release these different energy phenomena throughout the examination room, and all you have to do is capture and analyze these forces."
"By the way, I would like to remind you that in this exam, you are not allowed to share the power you have captured with others. Violators will be eliminated."
"above."
"Everyone is welcome to play as you please, and I hope you can achieve your ideal results."
Senior Zhou Yi's voice finally fell, and Liu Ru looked at the sky.
The originally clear sky suddenly changed.
Dark clouds suddenly gathered in a corner of the sky, and at the same time there were thunderbolts and lightning flashing across the sky. In some places, heavy rain began to pour, while in other places the sun was still shining brightly, and strong winds began to sweep past, bringing fierce rain to the face.
Almost instantly, the entire grassland turned into a place where vast natural forces converged.
…
…
"Here." Zhou Yi handed Su Ziye his score sheet for today.
Su Ziye was not polite and raised his hand to give himself another eight points.
Returning the score sheet to Zhou Yi, Su Ziye asked just right: "I feel that this exam is very different from the last time."
"What are the differences?" Zhou Yi asked knowingly.
"Everyone could see and touch the flowers and plants in the last exam, but this time it was replaced by ethereal wind, rain, thunder and lightning. Before, just pulling up the flowers and plants would count as passing the test, but how should it be calculated this time?" Su Ziye looked at it. asked Zhou Yi.
"Because the examinations are different." Zhou Yi smiled and said: "The first test examines the talent and attainments of the Object Realm. The so-called Object Realm, to put it bluntly, is to temper the body and lay a solid foundation for climbing to higher places."
"So in the Gewu Realm, most of the things you come into contact with are visible and tangible things, such as absorbing and storing more energy through breathing methods, and improving your cultivation speed by changing the operation mode of meridians."
"This is a long and arduous road to discovering the body's own treasures, but all roads have an end, and not everyone will reach the end of these roads."
"Because on the road of spiritual practice, a second great realm will soon appear before your eyes."
"It's Zhizhi." Zhou Yi looked at Su Ziye and said.
In Zhou Yi's view, Su Ziye was just a young man who was accepted as a servant by Liu Ru and was able to enter the academy without taking the exam because of her favor. Otherwise, Su Ziye would definitely be kicked out halfway through based on his ability.
So as an elder, it was only natural for him to learn some life experience and practice principles from Su Ziye.
"Manpower is sometimes exhausted. Even if you have tens of thousands of kilograms of strength in your hands, you can only lift a larger stone. But if you look at the lightning and thunder, and you look at the wind and clouds, these natural powers can easily move mountains and seas. .”
"So on the road of spiritual practice, one's own practice will soon reach a bottleneck, and then one starts to try to borrow strength from the outside world."
"This process of borrowing power is to achieve knowledge."
"Compared to studying things, it is much more difficult to achieve knowledge."
"Because everyone has areas in which they are good at, and of course there are also areas where they struggle. If you can find the areas you are good at and start the road to knowledge, there is no doubt that you will get twice the result with half the effort."
“And if unfortunately you get into trouble, you may be stuck on this path of knowledge for the rest of your life, unable to make any further progress.”
When Su Ziye heard this, he couldn't help but ask: "So, have all the seniors and sisters present heard about it?"
Zhou Yi couldn't help laughing when he heard these words: "Zhizhi is also the beginning of spiritual practice. It is very important to have a good teacher. As long as you can enter Ye Ye College, Zhizhi will never be difficult unless there are some big People with perseverance try to gain knowledge through some extremely difficult fields, which will consume a lot of time and energy, but once they succeed, the results will be immediate."
"What are the extremely difficult fields of knowledge?" Su Ziye asked curiously.
Zhou Yi looked at Su Ziye and knew that this was the curiosity of all young people: "I asked the same question before. Generally speaking, the four areas of earth, water, fire and wind are the easiest areas to know because they are common and simple enough. People who gain knowledge in these four fields will most likely embark on the path of practicing magic in the future."
"If you continue to explore your own potential from the inside out, you can also follow the path of pure warrior cultivation. By mastering the changes of qi and qi mechanisms, you can release and solidify the qi that can only flow in the body. You can also walk out of the path. .”
"These two roads are generally considered to be the dividing line between mages and warriors."
"But beyond that, there are many more paths to knowledge waiting to be discovered by others."
"Let's still take President Carotes as an example. His path to knowledge is the illusory power of all things, just like all objects that rise will eventually fall to the earth. The earth itself has powerful power. If you can If you succeed in achieving knowledge in this field, then in the state of knowledge, you can gradually master this gravity, and continue to expand this path to the subsequent Dharma Realm."
"And only when you reach the realm of Dharma can it truly be called an inhuman realm."
"Dharma Realm?" Su Ziye couldn't help but ask.
"This is the third highest realm of practice." Zhou Yi said with a calm smile: "It is already difficult to go from the realm of studying objects to the realm of knowledge, but from the realm of understanding to the realm of Dharma, it is like the judgment of clouds and mud."
"Although I haven't gotten the questions yet, the third of the three tests should be an examination of the Dharma Realm, but these are a bit far away for me."
The senior looked at Su Ziye with a wry smile: "After all, I haven't even reached the realm of Dharma."
"What about Carotes?" Su Ziye couldn't help but ask: "What state is he in?"
"Him?" Zhou Yi looked at Su Ziye and shook his head: "I don't know either."
"You don't know either?" Su Ziye was incredulous.
"Few people will disclose their realm. After all, it is personal privacy. There are very few duels in this area in the academy. Besides, there are too few people who can challenge the president." Zhou Yi explained: "Of course we We can make some estimates, that is, the people who can become the BOSS of the three major organizations must be at the Dharma Realm at the lowest level. In fact, from my observation, they should all be at the Dongxuan Realm."
"What is the Dongxuan Realm? The Dongxuan Realm is the fourth realm of cultivation, and it can also be said to be the last realm. In fact, the vast majority of practitioners will rarely come into contact with this realm, because those who can often reach this realm People, without exception, are like dragons and phoenixes among men." Zhou Yi looked at Su Ziye and said: "Behind the Dongxuan Realm is the Heaven Realm, which is the so-called unknowable realm. As long as you remember one thing, when you reach the Heaven Realm, everything is unknowable. A rational monster is enough."
"So." Zhou Yi looked at Su Ziye: "If we eliminate the two wrong answers, we can accurately get the realm of the president, which is the Dongxuan realm."
"Studying things, attaining knowledge, Dharma, and the mysteries of the cave." Su Ziye counted them one by one on his fingers: "So if you want to practice, these are the four realms."
"That's right." Zhou Yi nodded, looking like a child who could teach: "Of course, the so-called practice does not necessarily require fighting. The academy is committed to cultivating talents in all aspects. As long as you have one of the skills, you can find it in the academy. Corresponding learning direction and strive to become a useful person to society."
Su Ziye felt that the topic was going too far, so he quickly pulled it back: "Wait, wait, let's come back first. Didn't we just talk about wind, rain, thunder and lightning?"
"How are we going to pass the exam this time?"
"I have said before, Zhizhi is to feel the power of nature, and directly understand the process of finally using it for one's own use." Zhou Yi looked at Su Ziye and said: "The vast majority of people here have already crossed the Zhizhi realm, so What they have to do next is very simple, they just need to review the past and learn the new, find the feeling of knowing it at the beginning, regain the power we released on this grassland, and prove that their strength and realm are genuine."
"And for those very few people who have not passed the threshold of knowledge, here we can help them master the mystery of the realm of knowledge faster, because compared to the knowledge of the outside world, the knowledge environment we provide is almost the most superior, and it is easy for them to Get started here.”
"Because to put it bluntly, this is still a test of your talent for knowledge."
"Including the perception and affinity for energy, and the ability to use it for one's own use. The final score will still be based on these performances."
Zhou Yi explained one by one.
Su Ziye finally understood: "From this point of view, isn't it a big loss that I didn't participate in the third test?"
"Be more open-minded." Zhou Yi looked at Su Ziye and enlightened: "If you don't pass, wouldn't it be a bigger loss?"
…
…
Liu Ru has found a sunny place to take shelter from the rain temporarily.
In fact, the entire grassland is now in chaos.
It's windy here, it's raining there, it's thundering on the left and lightning on the right. No matter who sees this scene, they will feel that the title of wind, rain, thunder and lightning is very appropriate.
But compared to the confusion that most people had during the first test, this time after the selection, almost everyone quickly grasped the key points of this test and became lightning chasers.
Because those candidates who have truly entered the realm of knowledge will soon feel the power permeating this grassland, and successfully realize that the so-called catching wind, rain, thunder and lightning is not an impossible thing; Something within easy reach.
Only Liu Ru seemed like an outlier in this chaotic chase where everyone was carnivaling.
Her first reaction was to hide in the sunniest place to take shelter from the rain, as if the surroundings were from the chaotic era, and only here I felt like the constant era.
But after taking shelter from the rain, how to pass the exam became Liu Ru's biggest worry.
She was still alone here, with nothing to rely on.
Although according to Su Ziye, the most important thing about going out this time was to lure Mo Yun and successfully kill him, which was an explanation to the college.
But after all, Liu Ru still needs to pass three tests before she can be qualified to enter the academy.
So now she still needs to pass the test in front of her.
But the girl was basking in the warm sunshine, and soon she felt a little sleepy.
Of course she knew it was not the time to sleep now, so when she was trying to cheer up, she suddenly felt something seeping into her forehead.
Warm, like raindrops.
Is it raining?
Liu Ru raised his head and still only saw the sun above his head.
But then more warm raindrops began to seep into her bones and flesh little by little along her skin. The girl looked inside herself in surprise, only to realize that these raindrops actually came from the sun.
"What's going on?" Liu Ru couldn't help being surprised.
…
…
In the monitoring hall, someone quickly noticed this scene.
"Look at Liu Ru, she is absorbing the power of the sun."
