Jiang Yuan smiled.

Han Yu is an expatriate. Even if the Hengtian Sect values the relationship with the expatriates and treats Han Yu differently from fellow disciples, why should he, an expatriate disciple, care about other people's affairs?

But what happened next really proved Han Yu's words.

The three of them came to the academy together. One was the most talented person of the Qing Emperor, who was already particularly eye-catching. The other was the only son of the head of Feng Tanghan and the future successor of the Jiuyu Sect, and the other was the favorite of the Qing Emperor who almost caused a disaster. , it is extremely difficult for these three people not to attract attention.

The master said that he was going to the mountain today, and now everyone became active. They could finally go out and escape from this place where they sat in a well and looked at the sky. Chen Ze said, Master, what are you going to do on the mountain today?

Cui Shiming stroked his mustache and said, "It's not important. The key is for you to relax."

The master is wise. Chen Ze shouted, and then several people followed him to boo.

The master said "cough" twice, and what he said next was the key point. But every time Chen Ze only gets excited when he hears the first half of the sentence, and then he feels like an eggplant beaten by the rain when he hears the second half.

But Chen Ze always adheres to this "good habit" and actively creates a good atmosphere for other senior brothers.

"Everyone will be adults after New Year's Day. If your spiritual power and spells are not up to standard, you will not be able to obtain your own weapons. So you should know what the purpose of this time is to focus more on, right?"

Lin Zhihui seemed to wake up suddenly,

adult

mean

What?

——Self-reliance

——Solve problems independently

——So you can’t rely on your parents and others for some things.

——Especially Jiang Yuan

——You must also become stronger inside. At least you won't let others notice your emotions, so you can protect yourself.

A test after New Year's Day is to check the gap between you and the adult level. If you fail, then you are offended, and you will have to continue practicing for another year until you pass the test.

What if you keep failing? So sorry, you will never reach adulthood. This is the rule of the Hengtian Sect.

If you ask, isn't this unfair to those disciples with poor intelligence and poor foundation? ——You are right, he chose the wrong path. Since he has no wisdom and no ability to work hard enough to pass, this place is not suitable for him to stay.

If we talk about Lin Zhihui ten years ago, he was definitely a clumsy child. There were things that Lin Zhihui couldn't reach. Jiang Yuan would step on the stool to help him get it. When Lin Zhihui couldn't lift the water for washing his feet, Jiang Yuan would put the basin on the wooden board and drag it...

He was not as smart as Jiang Yuan, nor as lovable as Jiang Yuan, but the young Lin Zhifan did not understand this. He stood behind the screen and listened to those people praising Jiang Yuan for his extraordinary talent and intelligence. Why did they never mention his name?

Later, when Lin Zhifan grew up, he gradually understood this problem, and the answer was wisdom.

Just like you can see Lin Zhifan's thoughts through his eyes, most people would only say that this fair-skinned, doll-like child is cute when seeing him, but when praising Jiang Yuan, they would use the words handsome and lively.

Jiang Yuan has been active and lively since he was young, but this is only in front of acquaintances. In front of outsiders, Jiang Yuan is like a precocious teenager, with a mature and steady face that does not match his age. Regarding this question, Lin Zhifan asked him, and he said that not everyone understands him, so why let those unnecessary people know the real him. Lin Zhifan didn't understand what he meant, but at least he heard that he was an important person to him, of course, including Aunt Jiang, Uncle Jiang, and Shi Le.

Later, the gap between Lin Zhifan and Jiang Yuan became larger and larger, which was reflected in the initial cultivation and in learning to read and write.

Lin Zhifan is a person who never admits defeat. How could he show such a big gap between himself and his good buddy? If he fails to do what Jiang Yuan has done, Lin Zhifan will definitely spend time on it.

Lin Zhifan and Jiang Yuan paid a heavy price when they first learned to fish.

The fish from Jiangyuan came up very quickly, but Lin Zhihui waited for a long time but no fish took the bait. When Jiang Yuan came over and asked him why he hadn't caught one yet, Lin Zhihui lied to save face, saying that he was too sleepy and didn't know the fish was hooked. Lin Zhihui temporarily restored his self-esteem.

In order to catch fish, Lin Zhihui secretly ran out to fish at the river at night. However, the winter was too cold. Although Lin Zhihui was dressed thickly, due to the cold air in the middle of the night, he did not catch any fish and even made himself feverish. . The next day, Lin Zhihui kept coughing and said that he caught a cold in bed in the middle of the night. Jiang Yuan said, why is your body so delicate? I sleep in bed every day and you still don’t have a fever?

Since then, for some reason, Jiang Yuan has never gone fishing again, but this is exactly what Lin Zhihui wanted.

Lin Zhihui didn't have Jiang Yuan's intelligence, so he naturally had to make up for it in other ways. As the saying goes, diligence can make up for clumsiness. When Lin Zhihui heard this word, he felt like he had seen a revelation in life. From now on, if you don't understand something or don't know how to do it, you will study it carefully and ask for advice diligently. Slowly, the gap with Jiang Yuan became smaller and smaller.

So for the adult test, Lin Zhihui will not worry about his ability.

As for weapons, Lin Zhihui didn't care at all. With Ecstasy, it was destined. No matter how good other swords were, they couldn't match the joy and cherishment after touching it for the first time.

Although Lu Zhan's face didn't change much, his fists betrayed him, which showed that he was looking forward to getting a real sword when he became an adult.

Everyone is like this, but Chen Ze seems a bit pessimistic. He is just like Lin Zhihui ten years ago, helpless and pitiful.

His spiritual power and magic are the worst among his peers, but no one can help him.

Everyone's attention turned to Lin Zhihui's adult test mentioned by Cui Shiming. Lu Zhan asked, is there anything that needs to be prepared for this trip to the mountain? Cui Shiming said, there is no need for anything, you will know when you get there.

The mountain was higher than the current location of the college. Lin Zhihui glanced towards the west. He saw lush greenery and only heard a few bird calls accompanied by a long series of echoes.

Others were talking and laughing along the way. Lin Zhihui, Jiang Yuan, and Han Yu were walking behind. Occasionally, some disciples would bump into Lin Zhihui on purpose. Lin Zhihui didn't pay attention and almost fell. If he fell from here, , if the legs are broken, the arms will be broken. Jiang Yuan pulled Lin Zhihui between himself and Han Yu, and Han Yu yelled at the man, "Run to reincarnate, you still don't have eyes." The man turned around and saw that he was someone he couldn't mess with. After nodding and apologizing, he quickly got into the crowd in front of him.

Lin Zhihui remembered what Jiang Yuan said before, they may not understand why you need to let them know your true self. They will just follow the crowd and become restless. If someone says you are good, you are good, but when you do something that harms their interests, they will bite you back. People who said you were good before also start to change their minds, just like what happened before Nothing has happened before, or what happened before is a humiliating existence for them. It's similar to "A person like him can still do such good things, don't insult the word good things, he doesn't deserve it."

There is a thatched hut at the destination, which has been completely covered. The entire terrain is relatively flat, at least much flatter than the road up the mountain. There is still a large blank land next to it, and I don't know what it will be used for.

Chen Ze couldn't keep up with his physical strength after climbing. He breathed in and out loudly and squatted on the ground to breathe. His face turned red. Cui Shiming asked him to go to the thatched hut to rest.

Song Li asked, what are you doing here?

Cui Shiming said, don't worry, you will know when Chen Ze comes out.

After waiting for a short while, Chen Ze came out jumping up and down, and the breath on his face returned to normal. When he saw everyone's eyes focused on him, he asked unnaturally, what's wrong?

Lu Zhan said, I also want to ask you what happened. Why are you so happy after you went in and came out?

Chen Ze said, "Hey, you're talking about this, I don't know. The air in the room is very good. After entering, I sat on a stool and drank a glass of water and felt refreshed instantly. I was afraid of what tasks the master would assign, so I Come out and take a look.

It sounds like a miracle, how could there be such a wonderful house. Lu Zhan was about to go in, but Cui Shiming stopped him.

As you can see, this is a very magical house, with super spiritual power gathering inside. Cui Shiming solved everyone's doubts.

Then what? What are we going to do? Han Yu said something from the side. Because his voice was so pleasant, everyone looked at him.

"What are you looking at, haven't you seen handsome people?" Han Yu is not afraid of offending people, and he has no good impression of these people. Besides, after offending him, he can go back to Feng Tang.

He just happened to offend everyone. Lu Zhan was the first to be dissatisfied and stood up to express his opinion, saying, "Brother Han is so loud. It seems that he is overconfident in himself, right?"

"You still dare to claim to be handsome. If you are talented, why can't Feng Tang tolerate you anymore and send you to the Qing Emperor to study?" Sun Ping stood up to Lu Zhan and acted coyly again.

"So if you have the ability, go to Feng Tang. If you don't have the ability, just rely on jealousy to get ahead." Han Yu didn't care at all how ugly these words were, and dismissed them all, which not only showed his shamelessness, but also blocked him. The other person was speechless.

Cui Shiming stopped both parties and said, "Stop arguing. The person who is talking will go back."

Han Yu made a face towards Lu Zhan and Sun Ping, and Lu Zhan's face turned blue. Sun Ping pouted and showed off his disgusting expression to Han Yu with bared teeth and raised lips.

Han Yu ignored him and put his thoughts and attention on Cui Shiming wholeheartedly. Sun Ping's efforts were in vain. Lu Zhan happened to turn his head and saw him. Lu Zhan was shocked by his surprised appearance. He went up and threw a sleeve on his outstretched hand, and said, "Are you promising? Are you a dog? Learn such vulgar things from him?" Sun Ping put down the hand that opened his mouth, and then felt a little aggrieved. Just look at the land battle and let it go.

Cui Shiming said that this thatched house is the place where spiritual power is tested. Although it is a bit crude, the effect is very good.

This was also the result of his initial efforts to test the spiritual power of his disciples. In the final analysis, it was because no one helped him build a decent thatched house.

Someone secretly laughed underneath. Cui Shiming pointed out that person and said, "Chen Ze, please stand up. Didn't you feel good in the room just now? You absorbed most of the spiritual energy, and now you have recovered your strength." , is it time to change back?"
