Who Told Him To Cultivate Immortality!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio The Second Test (Thank you to the chief of the alliance who tipped the book in the sky and cloud sea.

"Who uses the Mantis Fist like this?!" The Deputy Sect Leader widened his eyes. He had heard of the Mantis Fist before. It was a fist technique that imitated the mantis.

It was imitating the mantis' fist technique, not turning into the mantis' fist technique!

In order to achieve the expected standard for this test, he had repeatedly deduced and even asked a few quick-witted higher-ups in the sect to try it out. He had confirmed that there was no other solution other than the standard answer he gave.

Now, two answers that were not the standard had popped out. He could not accept it!

The Sect Leader was more open-minded. "Think about it from another angle. He only took a few looks at the mantis and he understood the Mantis Fist. Even the generals of the Jin Kingdom in history did not have the talent for martial arts. This means that Lu Yang's talent for martial arts is extremely high. In the end, he reached the profound realm of using martial arts to practice spells. He is a rare genius!"

The Deputy Sect Leader was stunned. He turned to look at the Sect Leader who had a serious expression and asked, "Are you serious?"

The Sect Leader thought to himself, Of course I made it up. Actually, I did not understand how he turned from a human into a mantis. However, as the Sect Leader, I cannot show ignorance in front of my subordinates.

The Sect Leader nodded. "Of course I am serious."

After hearing the Sect Leader's words, the Deputy Sect Leader was in a better mood. Since he was a rare genius, it was reasonable for him to find the solution by accident.

It was barely acceptable.

"Those who can pass have passed. The first test ends here," the Deputy Sect Leader said.

There were hundreds of thousands of images on the surface of the water. Everyone's performance was recorded in the images.

Only a small number of people understood perseverance from the spiders and a very small number of people understood strategies from the mantis. Most people could not recover from the setback in the cave and became deserters. They were killed by the Liang Kingdom's soldiers in the chaos of war. They died nameless deaths. The Liang Kingdom's soldiers did not even know how high-spirited the people they killed were.

"The second test begins."

…

"The second test is to make the examiner sincerely keep you."

This sentence appeared in everyone's mind. They forgot the cause and effect and only remembered to think of a way to pass the second test.

Yan Wangsun felt a little dizzy. He did not have any recollection of what had happened earlier. He only vaguely remembered someone asking him where he was from, and he said that he was from Huangyue City.

"I'm Yan Wangsun. I'm currently applying for a position in the Landing Money Chamber of Commerce. I need to pass an interview. The interview requirement is that I can't tell anyone about the interview questions." Yan Wangsun sorted out the information he currently knew.

Even if he did not ask for it, Yan Wangsun would not tell others about the interview questions. This would be building bridges for others, and it would not do him any good.

Yan Wangsun found himself sitting in the first seat. Beside him was a burly man in a Confucian robe.

"My name is Brutal Bones. What's your name?"

Yan Wangsun didn't answer because the examiner was calling his name.

As soon as he entered the room, Yan Wangsun noticed a ball of paper at his feet. He threw it into the trash can and then prepared for the interview.

The examiner was chubby and barely wore his clothes. He always had a smile on his face. "Yan Wangsun, right? Go to the market now and see if there are any potatoes for sale."

Yan Wangsun left obediently and walked around the market. There was only one stall that sold potatoes. When he came back, he said, "Yes."

The chubby examiner asked again, "How many potatoes do you have?"

Yan Wangsun had no choice but to go out again. When he came back, he said, "There are 80 kilograms of potatoes."

"What's the price?"

Yan Wangsun cursed in his heart. "Why didn't you say so earlier?" He ran out for the third time and asked for the price. "Three copper coins per kilogram."

"How's the quality of the potatoes? Does it match the price?"

Yan Wangsun suppressed his anger and ran out for the fourth time to check the quality of the potatoes. "The quality of the potatoes is average. It's about three to four copper coins. The price is not high."

The chubby examiner smiled and said, "You're eliminated."

"Why should I!"

Yan Wangsun said angrily. He had been taken out by the fat examiner four times. Every time, he had to run back and forth. After working hard for half a day, he was told that he had failed?

Are you kidding me?

The fat examiner spread his hands. "You ran out four times just to ask about potatoes. How can I be assured to hand the job to you?"

"Then why don't you finish asking all the questions in one go!"

The fat examiner shook his head. "You didn't do things properly. How can you blame me for not finishing my questions?

Young man, you have to learn to figure out the intentions of your superiors in your work. "

"Bah, do you think you're the emperor? What intentions?"

The fat examiner wasn't angry. "Even though you failed, you can stay."

Yan Wangsun looked at the fat examiner suspiciously, worried that he would be fooling him again. "Really?"

"Do you still remember the ball of paper you picked up when you entered the door? I threw it on the ground on purpose to see who would pick it up."

Yan Wangsun was delighted. Was this a test of his sense of responsibility and observation skills?

"Coincidentally, I'm lacking a cleaner. You can stay and be in charge of cleaning."

Yan Wangsun: "…"

Yan Wangsun wanted to curse, but he didn't say anything. No matter what, staying meant that he had passed the test. It was a good thing.

"Next," the fat examiner shouted.

Man Gu walked into the room. Yan Wangsun saw Man Gu's honest look and felt a little disdainful. He felt that this person must be like him, fooled by the examiner.

"Go and see if there's anyone selling potatoes in the market." The fat examiner asked the same question.

Man Gu acknowledged and left. He only came back after more than ten minutes.

"There's an old man selling potatoes in the market with a cart. There are eighty kilograms of potatoes, three copper coins per kilogram. The quality matches the price. The old man even said that if you buy more potatoes, the price can be reduced by ten percent …"

Man Gu answered in detail. He even asked questions that the fat examiner hadn't considered in advance. Yan Wangsun, who was standing at the side, was stunned.

Man Gu might look burly, but he was actually a meticulous and thoughtful person. He was good at learning humbly, especially from Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou.

Based on the current situation, there was still a long way to go before graduation.

"Congratulations, you've been retained."

…

"What do you think? This Man Gu is a good seedling, right?"

When the vice sect master saw that Brutal Bones had passed the test again, he was very happy. This proved that his train of thought was correct.

Some of the others only needed to make two trips to answer the examiner's four questions. This was barely considered a pass.

Only Berserker Bones fit his thoughts perfectly.

The Hierarch nodded. "It seems like the second test is to test whether or not one is considerate and whether or not one is able to think for one's superior."

The demonic path had to be careful when doing things. They did not want to leave any traces behind so as to avoid being caught by the righteous path.

Furthermore, only by thinking for your superiors would you be able to show that you have the potential to rise. Only then would the higher-ups promote you.

The Vice Sect Master came up with the second test based on all kinds of considerations.

"This time, there shouldn't be any other way." The Vice Sect Leader smiled proudly.

The Hierarch didn't say anything. He looked at the two people who had performed well in the first round.

His intuition told him that there might be another way.
