One month later.
"Finally I have a sense of Qi!"
In the school dormitory, Zhou Ling took a deep breath and said to himself with a happy face.
[You are breathing spiritual energy, spiritual energy affinity +1, spiritual energy +2]
[Cumulative number of times breathing spiritual energy: 2082/10,000]
Now, he comes to the Taoist temple half an hour earlier every day.
Although he has not yet formally practiced the exercises, with the talent of [Spiritual Energy Affinity], he can also gradually improve his sense of Qi.
With the stimulation of the talent of [Spiritual Energy Affinity], he can now inhale 2 values of spiritual energy every time he breathes.
This means that his speed of absorbing spiritual energy has doubled compared to before.
This also determines his future cultivation speed.
Generally speaking, the quality of spiritual root qualifications determines the spiritual energy compatibility of the cultivator's physique. For example,
the spiritual energy compatibility of a cultivator with a medium-grade spiritual root is 5 to 10 times stronger than that of a low-grade spiritual root.
Similarly, a low-grade spiritual root is much stronger than a mixed spiritual root.
This month, he took pre-cultivation classes every morning, such as "Introduction to Cultivation", "Judgment of Qi Sensation", "How to Stimulate Spiritual Points", etc.
In the afternoon, there were practical classes, and different students practiced separately according to their own choices.
Students like Zheng Youwei who had already stimulated their spiritual points chose to practice the exercises.
In addition, some who were interested in skills such as puppets, medicinal herbs, and spirit beasts could also choose to practice. The Taoist temple provided a place for practice.
As for Zhou Ling, he mainly practiced the Great Yang Jue.
[Effect: Cumulative boxing 380 times, Great Yang Fist proficiency (entry 30)]
[Cumulative boxing: 380/1000]
He basically ensured that he practiced the Great Yang Fist five or six times every day.
Now he can do it in a decent manner and with great power.
According to this progress, after four months, [Physical Evolution] can be improved again.
[Physical fitness, average nutrition (5200/10000)]
And every time he practiced boxing, Yuan Hu and Wang Xin followed him to practice.
After getting along for a month, the three of them became familiar with each other.
Zhou Ling was naturally out of place when he was with these kids all day.
So basically they didn't talk much, and every day they just thought about cultivating their sense of Qi as quickly as possible so that they could choose basic exercises to practice.
Wang Xin hadn't spoken for a month, and had been nicknamed the little mute by the children in the dormitory.
She was very unhappy about the teasing of other children, but she followed Zhou Ling every day after class or at meals.
This annoyed Zhou Ling, but Wang Xin was like a follower, following him wherever he went.
Another one was Yuan Hu. It was said that the boy's parents were fishermen, and his family was so poor that they couldn't even afford to eat.
But his parents still found a way to let him attend the middle-grade Taoist class.
Because he usually ate ordinary food, and he was dressed shabby and dark-skinned.
Other children didn't want to associate with him.
He felt that only Zhou Ling was willing to talk to him, so he followed Zhou Ling when he had nothing to do.
This combination of three people seemed a little special in the dormitory.
Zhou Ling continued to take a deep breath, and after a while, he saw Liu Yan walked in with a warm face.
Liu Yan was kind and amiable, and was very patient in teaching students. He had already reached the ninth level of Qi Refining.
And it was said that he was also a formation master.
She treats all the children equally.
After this month, she has basically understood the family backgrounds of all the children.
It doesn't matter whether they are children of aristocratic families or ordinary casual cultivators.
If they make mistakes, Liu Yan will blame them and punish them. She will not look at them differently because they are children of aristocratic families.
So although these children are young, they respect and fear Liu Yan.
Zhou Ling does not have these thoughts. He usually likes to ask Liu Yan questions.
Not to mention that Liu Yan is pretty and beautiful, even as an adult, it is better than communicating with these children.
Moreover, Liu Yan is far better than Li Ru and others in terms of cultivation and knowledge.
So talking with Liu Yan is also something Zhou Ling enjoys.
Today is a month after the start of school. After the first monthly exam, the results of the homework assessment will be issued. Liu Yan walked in with her hands behind her back. In her hands was a stack of report cards.
The children immediately quieted down and looked a little nervous.
Zhou Ling didn't take it seriously.
The main test this time was theoretical knowledge.
So he was very confident.
With the blessing of the talent of [Immortal Wisdom].
[Comprehension, mediocre (82/100)]
In terms of comprehension, he has surpassed ordinary people.
After a while, Zhou Ling saw his test results.
A-level.
Second in the whole school.
And the first place was actually his deskmate, the little mute.
But it was just a theoretical test, so the other children didn't seem to take it seriously.
After all, theory and cultivation are completely different. In
order to truly cultivate, in addition to spiritual roots and comprehension, you also need sufficient resources.
For example, alchemy and talisman making, you need to consume spirit stones to buy materials for training.
Just a first-level low-grade alchemy furnace requires twenty or thirty low-grade spirit stones. Not to mention the spiritual medicine materials, the alchemy furnace alone is not something that ordinary casual cultivators can buy.
[You got the second place in the class in the monthly exam, I was born with talent +1]
"Brother Ling is really amazing!"
Yuan Hu said with envy.
As for Wang Xin, who ranked first, he selectively ignored her.
"Humph!" Zheng Youwei, who was wearing a brand new Taoist robe from the Taoist Academy, was dissatisfied with this and snorted coldly, saying,
"What's so great about it? It's just a theoretical exam. Who doesn't know
it? Look, he hasn't even activated his spirit cave yet." "What's your score?" Yuan Hu asked in dissatisfaction.
"What does it have to do with you?" Zheng Youwei said disdainfully, "You casual cultivators, even if you have good theories, you can't become inner disciples without inheritance and resources."
Yuan Hu's momentum weakened for a moment and he was speechless.
[Being directly despised, more courageous after setbacks +1]
[Activate growth talent, roar: When you shout, you can cause a huge sound wave attack to the opponent. ]
[Achieve the requirement: Achieve the shouting effect 1,000 times. ]
This is the absolute attribute of the talent of more courageous after setbacks.
Zhou Ling was delighted. He had no interest in the bickering and fighting for face between the two children.
Besides, what Zheng Youwei said was true. It was difficult for casual cultivators to make progress.
But I didn't expect to gain this.
This [Roar] talent looks like an active skill.
If used with the Dayang Fist, a sudden roar can also cause an unexpected attack to the opponent.
It's just that it's a bit troublesome to complete 1,000 roars.
After all, now in the school, you can't just shout casually and affect others.
"Got it, then practice with Dayang Fist!"
Zhou Ling said secretly.
"Be quiet!"
At this time, Liu Yan shouted on the podium.
Everyone immediately quieted down.
Liu Yan's eyes swept over the children sitting upright, with a serious face, and continued, "Although it is a theoretical assessment, it can also show your attitude towards cultivation."
"Practice is like sailing against the current. If you don't move forward, you will retreat."
"A correct and persistent attitude is what every cultivator should have!"
"If you rank in the bottom three of the school again in the assessment next month, you will be punished to stand outside the gate."
The children couldn't help but get a little nervous when they heard this.
