Palm fairy garden

Chapter 61 The Spiritual Root of Mind and Comprehension
Entering the cabin, everyone sat down.

Su Ming also briefly introduced himself to the brothers Lu Youcai and Lu Youwu.

"I've seen fellow Daoist Su."

Lu Youcai and Lu Youwu formally saluted Su Ming with a smile.

Su Ming also hurriedly cupped his hands in return.

In an instant, the atmosphere in the crowd became much more relaxed.

"Judging from fellow Daoist Su's tone just now, it seems that you don't know much about Yaoyuan Dao Academy?"

Su Ming nodded: "I really don't know much about it, and I'm about to ask two fellow Taoists for advice."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Lu Youcai waved his hands again and again, and said with a smile: "Actually, all Taoist monasteries in Lanzhou have basically the same criteria for selecting and recruiting monks. Their cultivation base should not exceed the Qi training period, and their age should not exceed 20 years old."

"Oh?"

Su Ming's heart moved slightly, "The Taoist temple still has age requirements for monks?"

"Of course there is an age requirement. After all, Lanzhou's Taoist Academy selects disciples for the Xianxia Sect. It will definitely not recruit those who are too old. Old age also means low potential. Even if they can be cultivated in the future, the cost will be too high. "

Hearing this, Su Ming nodded knowingly.

Indeed, if you are over 20 years old to enter the Taoist Academy, even if you can participate in the assessment of the outer disciples of the Xianxia Sect in the future, why not rush to your thirties?

Over 30 years old, even with the Foundation Establishment Pill, the success rate cannot reach 100%.

The Xianxia faction does not want to cultivate such a monk.

Seeing that Su Ming didn't speak, Lu Youwu said with emotion: "To be honest, when my two brothers were young, they also stayed in Yaoyuan Dao Academy for a while, but unfortunately they were persuaded by the Dao Academy halfway, and even those who participated in the Xianxia Sect disciple assessment No chance."

Speaking of this, Lu Youcai shook his head again and again, as if he felt extremely sorry for the missed opportunity when he was young.

"However, fellow Daoist Su, your brother and sister are still young, and there is still a great chance."

As Lu Youcai spoke, he changed the subject and smiled.

Hearing this, Su Ming just smiled.

Immediately, he asked again: "Since the two fellow Taoists have entered the Yaoyuan Dao Academy, what are the requirements for the selection of disciples by this Dao Academy?"

"This friend doesn't know?"

"I don't know,"

Su Ming shook his head, "To be honest, my brother and sister came from Lizhou."

"Lizhou?"

Lu Youcai and Lu Youwu looked at each other, and they both saw shock in each other's eyes.

"You Daoist Su are talking about Lizhou, which is adjacent to Dayuan Kingdom?"

"I'm going to do a lot of work in addition to this Lizhou, which Lizhou is there?"

Su Ming smiled wryly.

"Fellow Daoist Su, don't blame me. The two of my brothers were just too surprised. Lizhou is tens of thousands of miles away from us. It would be more than [-] miles if we took a detour. It must have been very difficult for the two fellow Daoists to come all the way."

Lu Youwu sighed.

Seeing that Su Ming remained silent, Lu Youwu continued, "Don't talk about this, since Fellow Daoist Su has come to the border of Lanzhou, it's my Lanzhou cultivator."

As he spoke, Lu Youwu picked up the teacup on the table and said, "I will replace wine with tea, and welcome Fellow Daoist Su to our Xingluo Island."

Hearing this, Su Ming and Gong Xiaocai also quickly picked up the teacups.

The atmosphere in the world became more harmonious.

"By the way, Fellow Daoist Su just wanted to ask what is the selection criteria of Yaoyuan Taoist Academy?"

"Exactly."

After pondering for a moment, Lu Youcai said slowly: "The selection criteria of Yaoyuan Taoist Temple are very simple, there are only three, namely, xinxing, understanding and spiritual root."

Sure enough, spiritual roots are indeed one of the assessment criteria for the Xianxia Sect to recruit disciples.

But what Su Ming didn't expect was that xinxing and savvy were included in the assessment criteria.

"Spirit root is the simplest,"

Lu Youcai said with a smile, "You can know the result after a casual investigation, but in fact Yaoyuan Taoist Academy really wants to assess the disciples, which are the two points of mind and comprehension.

My two brothers were dissuaded by Yaoyuan Dao Academy because of lack of comprehension. "

"Mind nature, comprehension?"

Su Ming frowned.

"Um,"

Lu Youcai nodded, "Compared to the spiritual roots that can be directly detected, Yaoyuan Taoist Academy has prepared many tests to test the mind and understanding of the disciples in the Taoist Academy.

Xinxing mainly includes the temperament, will, and even the quality of a monk. "

Su Ming nodded, he understood this very well.

If the Xianxia sect only valued qualifications and didn't pay attention to character, and all the disciples recruited had rebellious bones in the back of their heads, wouldn't it be a waste of a lot of resources to support the enemy?

Or, the monk's spiritual root is excellent, but after three days of fishing and two days of drying the net, he doesn't work hard at all. Even the best talent is wasted.

Immediately, Su Ming asked again: "Then what does understanding refer to?"

"Comprehension is even simpler. It refers to a monk's ability to comprehend spells and spells."

"Spell spell?"

Su Ming couldn't believe his ears. Could it be that a sect like Xianxia Sect is also a sect that emphasizes technique but not law?

Seeing Su Ming's expression, Lu Youcai explained: "We also don't quite understand why the Taoist school has to test our ability to comprehend spells and spells.

But according to the rumors, it seems that it has something to do with the monk's promotion to the golden core stage to comprehend supernatural powers in the future. "

Only in the Qi training period, the Xianxia faction considered the future promotion of the disciples of the sect to the Jindan period.

I have to say that it is really long-term consideration.

Su Ming always felt that he considered things in a long-term way, but compared with this Xianxia School, he felt that he was still far behind.

After such a careful calculation, Su Ming felt that he had no advantage in any aspect.

Thinking of this, he quickly asked again: "Will the Xianxia Sect recruit those monks with special talents?"

"Of course!"

Lu Youwu smiled and said, "If you have the talent for alchemy, the Xianxia sect will almost ignore all the assessment standards and directly accept you into the gate wall."

"Alchemy."

The expression on Su Ming's face moved slightly, "What about the craftsman?"

"The Xianxia party doesn't seem to take the refiner too seriously,"

Lu Youcai shook his head, "Fellow Daoist Su also knows that the magical artifacts forged by craftsmen are at most second-tier high-grade artifacts, and for the Xianxia School, the effectiveness of second-tier artifacts is really too low.

And when the monk reaches the golden core stage, he will use the magic weapon of his own life that he sacrificed, and the effect of the magic weapon is almost useless, so... "

Lu Youwu who was on the side added: "My brother is not entirely true, in our class, we heard that a second-level craftsman was specially recruited into the Xianxia School.

By the way, there are also formation masters. If Fellow Daoist Su has the talent in formation, he will also be recruited into the gate wall by Xianxia Paite. "

Hearing this, Su Ming finally had a basic understanding of Yaoyuan Taoist Temple.

Ordinary disciples can only be recruited by the Xianxia Sect if they pass the three assessment criteria of heart, comprehension, and spiritual root.

Cultivators with special talents, such as alchemists, formation masters, and weapon refiners, may not pass the examination and are recruited directly.

Of course, the Xianxia Party pays less attention to refiners, and the number of special recruits is limited every year.

Unlike alchemists, as long as you are really talented in alchemy, you will receive as much as you have from Xianxia.

After talking about Yaoyuan Taoist Academy, the two brothers Lu Youcai talked about Xingluo Island where they grew up.

But Su Ming lacks interest in Xingluo Island, because according to what Lu Youcai and his brothers said, Xingluo Island is just an insignificant one among the many fairy islands in Yaoyuan Water Realm.

Only because it is the closest to Yaojiang City, it is more lively and prosperous.

But also because it is the closest to the mortal city, it will inevitably be contaminated with a lot of worldly atmosphere, which is not conducive to monks' practice.

Unlike Tianshu Island, where Yaoyuan Daoist Academy is located, it is surrounded by tens of thousands of fairy islands, which are rarely visited by ordinary people, and it is the real paradise of cultivation.
