Encounter Taotie by chance at the beginning and practice longevity skills

The leading monk asked: "What is your name?"

Qi Fei stood up and replied with a respectful expression: "For your information, my name is Qi Fei."

The leading monk nodded and said with a smile: "Qi Fei, you have good qualifications. You can follow my disciple to Chengling Academy tomorrow. Are you willing?"

Qi Fei's eyes flashed with excitement and expectation, and he bowed solemnly: "Thank you, sir. I will definitely live up to your expectations."

The leading monk said: "My name is Tang Yunting, and that person's name is Su Chen, my disciple."

Qi Fei saluted respectfully again.

The faces of other students in the classroom were full of envy.

Tang Yunting looked at Su Chen. Su Chen understood and immediately went around to test the students' qualifications.

But Su Chen also walked to the end of the seat while shaking his head.

When he reached the end of the seat, Su Chen slowed down. In front of him was an ordinary student who looked a little nervous and clasped his hands together. Su Chen smiled and signaled the student to relax, then gently pressed on his wrist.

After a moment, Su Chen raised his brows slightly, looking a little surprised.

"Master, there is another one here. But his qualifications are average."

"What's your name?" Tang Yunting asked.

The student replied nervously: "My...my name is Li Fang."

Tang Yunting nodded and said: "It's really good. There are two students in one subject in this small school. Are you willing to go to Chengling Academy with Su Chen tomorrow?"

Li Fang's face showed an expression of disbelief, which then turned into excitement and joy. He nodded quickly: "Yes, I do!"

Su Chen was not idle at this time, and came to the table where Lei Ze and the others were.

Su Chen gently put his hand on the general's wrist, closed his eyes and felt it for a moment, then showed a look of joy.

"Master, there is another one here with average qualifications."

Tang Yunting came over and asked, "Little girl, what's your name?"

The general chuckled: "My name is Shangguanjun."

Su Chen tested Lei Ze and Xianmeng again, and the joy on his face became stronger and stronger.

"Master, these two people also have qualifications, but they are only average."

Tang Yunting looked at Lei Ze and Xianmeng: "What are your names?"

Lei Ze said respectfully: "My name is Shangguan Ze, this is Shangguan Meng, and this is Shangguan Jun."

Tang Yunting smiled: "Brother and sister?"

Lei Ze said: "Not counting brother and sister, Shangguanmeng is my childhood sweetheart, so I changed my surname to Shangguan. This is my maid, so I also changed my surname to Shangguan."

Tang Yunting nodded after hearing this: "Yes, yes, you three are willing to come to the academy to practice."

The three of them replied in unison: "It's what I asked for."

Tang Yunting laughed loudly after hearing this: "Okay, okay, let's meet at the south square of the city tomorrow at midnight." Tang Yunting said to Li Fang and Qi Fei: "You two too."

Su Chen also said happily: "Master, this time I recruited 5 people in one subject in this school, so it's a good start."

Tang Yunting smiled faintly and went to another room with Su Chen.

Seeing the two monks leaving, the teacher said with relief: Then he turned to the students, with a hint of seriousness and expectation in his tone:

"Students, today's selection ends here. I am very happy and proud of those students who have been selected. You will represent our school and embark on the path of spiritual practice. I wish you eternal life."

"As for those students who were not selected, there is no need to be discouraged. There are many paths in life, and spiritual practice is not the only way out. You can still study hard, gain fame, and contribute to the country and society. Remember, no matter where you go, No matter which path you take, you need persistence and hard work.”

"You five selected students can go back first and get ready."

After the teacher finished speaking, Qi Fei and Li Fang stood up, bowed respectfully and walked out.

The general originally wanted to go back, but was held down by Lei Ze.

The general's spiritual consciousness said: "Master, we can go."

Lei Ze's spiritual consciousness replied: "What's the hurry? There is a beginning and an end. You can have another sleep. I think Xianmeng really likes class."

The general didn't say much after hearing this, and just lay down on the table and fell asleep.

Lei Ze was thinking about the information that his spiritual consciousness had just gleaned, as well as the academy he had learned about before.

Tang Yunting, a golden elixir monk, is not a monk who refines essence and energy, and his spiritual consciousness is extremely low.

Su Chen, a foundation-building monk, a monk who breathes in the Dharma.

Chengling Academy, I found out before that it is the academy closest to Chihei City.

There are a total of 10 academies in the Cangyan Dynasty. All academies recruit mortal disciples. Except for the teachers, all the academies are disciples in the Qi refining stage.

Well, we won’t know the details until we go to the academy tomorrow.

......

The next day, Lei Ze took the two of them to Chengnan Square early.

A lot of people have gathered in Chengnan Square, including selected students like Lei Ze and others, selected children sent by their parents, and some curious onlookers.

There was an atmosphere of tension and excitement in the air, and everyone's faces were filled with expectations and curiosity about the future.

The general said: "It's so lively, Master."

Xianmeng agreed: "Yes, I didn't expect that there would be so many people before Chen hour. Hey, it seems to be Li Fang over there. It seems destined. Brother Xianren, let's go say hello."

Lei Ze also nodded and walked towards Li Fang with Xianmeng and the general with a smile.

Li Fang looked a little embarrassed. After all, he was still a child from an ordinary family and was not very used to this kind of situation.

"Good morning, Li Fang!" Xianmeng greeted warmly, with a friendly smile.

Li Fang turned around with a look of surprise on his face: "Shangguan Meng, Shangguan Ze, Shangguan Jun, you guys came so early too!"

Lei Ze said: "Yeah, after all, it's better to come early."

Li Fang was also excited and said: "I didn't expect that the three young masters are all qualified. It is really gratifying. When the time comes, you will have to take care of me when you enter the academy."

Lei Ze said with a smile: "We are all people with average qualifications, and it's not necessarily clear who will support whom."

Xianmeng also joined the conversation, her voice full of liveliness and cheerfulness: "Li Fang, you are too humble. In the academy, everyone studies and makes progress together. We will definitely help each other."

Li Fang scratched his head in embarrassment and said to Lei Ze: "Master Shangguan, I really envy you. You have such a considerate childhood sweetheart who is so beautiful. The maids are also so cute. The most important thing is that they still have Qualifications can practice with you.”

Several people were chatting away, and Lei Ze and the other three became more and more familiar with Li Fang.

Soon, Su Chen and a bald foundation-building man came to the stage in the center of the square.

The loud voice spread to the ears of everyone in the square:

"Disciples who are about to enter the academy, please be quiet."
