Building a sect from scratch

"you--"

"Junior brother!"

Before Lu Wenyuan rolled up his sleeves and wanted to say something, Chaoyan stood on tiptoe, slapped him hard on the shoulder, and warned through gritted teeth: "Junior brother, do you still remember the 'advice' given by Senior Sister Jiao before leaving?"

"Hmph! Senior sister, you are too worried! How can I, a disciple of the Taiyi Ziwei sect, argue with someone who has no idea who he is?"

Lu Wenyuan spoke forcefully, holding his head high, making a scornful look, standing aside like a cypress, not squinting, and actually had a bit of a cool temperament.

"Come in, come in! Everyone is silent!"

Soon, the door of the institute was pushed open.

Zhou Qian had visible fatigue on his face. He held a piece of paper and read: "Don't whisper to each other, don't use spells, etc. There is a device in the room to detect spiritual power fluctuations. If detected, it will be treated as cheating. Enter. Just find a seat one by one after the venue. There are only thirty written questions in total, twenty choices, seven judgments, and three subjective questions. Half an hour...well, that's two quarters of an hour to answer. You can write as much as you can. , the results will be released in the afternoon and the retest list will be announced on the bulletin board at the door..."

At this point, a scream suddenly came from the crowd: "It's only two-quarters of an hour! What can I write about this!?"

Someone kindly comforted him in a low voice: "You have just arrived in Chang'an City, right? The exams here are basically at this time, and the content of the exam is different from that in other sects, but it doesn't matter. I didn't pass this time, and I can still do more." Practice, there is a new 'examination training center' opened next door, and it has also released a collection of mock papers and real questions called "Five Years of Examination and Three Years of Success". If you go there more and practice, you will definitely succeed!"

"Yes, yes, it took my senior brother three times to pass the exam. It's normal to fail the first time!"

Chaoyan was stunned by the words of these monks: "Isn't it, so exaggerated? Is it necessary to enter this research institute?"

"Doesn't this fellow Taoist know? The various research institutes of Taiyin Sect are famous cornucopias and nests of wealth! There are already several fellow Taoists who have had the vision to go in, and they have made a lot of money because of the gadgets they researched. !”

At this point, the monk even beat his chest with remorse: "Oh! Oh! I wish I had applied! At that time, you only had to go through an interview, unlike now, you have to take a written test!"

"Hey, fellow Taoist, calm down. There are times in life that must come to you, but there are no times in life. Don't force it!"

Lu Wenyuan felt ridiculous when he heard the exaggeration. He sneered and said disdainfully: "Hey! How much money can you make!"

"The Taoist friend who has the most, I heard that he earns thousands of spirit stones every day just from his share of the patent! It's only been a few days! He wears gold and silver, and I heard that he even put down a deposit to buy a luxurious flying boat for transportation! "

Chaoyan's eyes widened: "Take, take the young master!? Every what? Every day!?"

Even Lu Wenyuan couldn't help but feel sour in his heart, but immediately felt that it was impossible - the Taiyin Sect was so small, and had never heard of possessing any spiritual mineral veins, how could it get so much money!

"Humph, that's not all! Isn't it the Taiyin Sect's sect grand ceremony these days? Many major sects, chambers of commerce, and merchant alliances have come here? Have you ever heard of the famous Taoist Fu Lu Shou, the first chamber of commerce in the Ten Continents and Three Islands? The investment in Chang'an Research Institute alone is hundreds of thousands of spirit stones! This does not include the money for a series of goods orders!"

"Yes, yes! It doesn't take much more. As long as I can enter the research institute, I can get 100 spiritual stones in a month by doing a few projects. I will laugh out loud in my dreams!"

"Then you should just dream! Do you think you can make something good and apply for a patent?"

"Why not? Those popular things they sell don't have any technical content!"

…

The monks here are whispering below, and the invigilator Zhou Qian at the door over there has read the precautions for the second time. After he finished reading, he made a gesture to open the door and signaled everyone to come in for the exam.

Lu Wenyuan walked into the examination room with erratic steps, and followed the monks in front of him and sat down at the examination table.

Taiyi Ziwei Sect also has exams.

In other words, most sects have exams. Generally called "Xun Kao" and "Sui Kao", as the name suggests, it is a test every ten days or every year. There are also Buddhist sects that take the exam only once every three or five years.

However, whether it was the ten-day exam or the year-end exam, Lu Wenyuan had never heard of any "choice questions" or "judgment questions". Aren't they usually about Mo Yi, Tie Jing and the like! ?

There are also some "subjective questions", I can't guess what kind of test questions they are!

It’s not like he can’t even pass this little preliminary test! ?

Seeing the other monks filing in with expressions that seemed to be extremely relaxed, Lu Wenyuan's face turned pale.

And when he lowered his head and saw clearly the title on the rice paper on the table, he felt even more incredible.

He understood the requirement clearly. It was nothing more than four answers to each question and choosing the correct one. It seemed very simple.

But the title is outrageous, it’s all about things I’ve never heard of or seen before!

"Among the following statements about the Huiling Pill, the correct one is:

1. Basically consistent with the principle of spiritual stones replenishing spiritual power.

2. Other cold herbs can be used to balance the irritation in Huilingcao

3. Harmless to non-practitioners and can be swallowed by ordinary people..."

This feeling of wanting to describe it in a few words was very novel, and it also made him feel uncomfortable.

It is really too regular, too serious, and too straightforward, as if all the mysterious and mysterious things in spiritual practice have been cut open and chopped into pieces, vowing to grind them into flat, regular shapes!

How can this be done!

Cultivating immortals and asking for the truth are such a test of one's aptitude and "spirituality". It is so straightforward, just like hoeing the fields. Isn't this, isn't this...

Isn't this pulling all the cultivators down from the altar! ?

This thought popped out of Lv Wenyuan's mind. In a trance, he felt as if he understood something, but he couldn't figure out the new and more questions in his mind.

In the rustling sound of a piece of paper rubbing against each other, he looked at the small words on the snow-white rice paper with fear, as if these words could eat him. His mind was a mess and he couldn't think of anything.

After an unknown amount of time, several loud gavel sounds were heard, and the invigilator who had been sitting at the top of the exam and was lost in thought said, "There are only fifteen minutes left, that is, a quarter of an hour. Please pay attention to your answering speed, fellow Taoists. I will remind you this time!"

Lv Wenyuan was awakened from his dream. He looked around and found that others had answered several pages, and some seemed to have answered some "subjective questions".

Turning his head again, he suddenly saw the unknown monk who had just choked him at the door was also writing furiously.

The monk seemed to have sensed something, and when he looked up, he happened to see Lv Wenyuan's pale face, and rolled his eyes at him, and shook his head mockingly.

But this time, Lv Wenyuan was not in the mood to compete with him.
