un and said: "As I said, I've raised your realm by one level. Now, it's your turn!"After witnessing the terrifying demand for spiritual energy that Gingercloud possessed, the Ancestor very naturally c...In the following days, Jiang Yun also temporarily put aside all his distractions and focused all his attention on cultivation. Because he was afraid of raising his realm too quickly, most of his time was spent cultivating techniques.

Besides, he would go to the first floor of the library to enrich his knowledge of cultivation.

Of course, he would occasionally visit Dongfang Bo as well, to ask him a question or two.

What surprised him the most was that not only did Xu Chongshen, the outer disciple of Baishou Peak, never come to seek revenge, but nothing happened on Lu Xiaoyu's side either. In fact, Lu Xiaoyu even came to Zangfeng several times to visit Jiang Yun.

Coming and going, his relationship with Lu Xiaoyu became closer. Without realizing it, Lu Xiaoyu treated Jiang Yun as an elder brother, and Jiang Yun sincerely regarded Lu Xiaoyu as his younger sister.

All in all, this kind of life made Jiang Yun very fulfilled and satisfied.

……

On this day, Jiang Yun opened his eyes from his cultivation, and a black stone appeared in his hand.

For such a long time, although Ginger Cloud had been to the library many times and had indirectly asked Dongfang Bo about it, she still had no clue about the origin and specific use of the black stone.

As a servant, he couldn't obtain any cultivation-related items either. He also felt embarrassed to ask Eastern Master or the Second Senior Sister for help, so he never used this stone again.

>Perhaps I can try that stone again tomorrow!

Today marks exactly six months since Jian Yun arrived at this Daozong. It's also the day for the re-examination, and according to Dongfang Bo, as long as today's re-examination goes smoothly, the sect will distribute some cultivation items as rewards.

Although they are still just common medicinal pills, perhaps there is something within them containing the meaning of the Dao!

If luck is on your side, it might even be possible to turn this stone back into water again.

"Ding dong!"

The newest and fastest updates are on B

As Gingercloud's self-spoken words fell, three melodious bell tolls suddenly rang out, spreading throughout the entire Wudao Sect and into Gingercloud's ears who was still fiddling with a black stone.

Ginger's eyes suddenly lit up and she exclaimed, "Finally here!"

Gingercloud knew this was the bell summoning disciples within the Zhōngdào Sect, meaning the retest was about to begin.

The so-called re-examination is not like the initial assessment, where one goes through three trials again. Instead, it directly assesses a disciple's cultivation realm. The passing standard requires all newly inducted disciples to elevate their cultivation by at least one level based on their original realm.

Of course, the more improvement, the greater the benefit for the disciples.

If the re-examination fails, regardless of your status when you first joined, you will automatically be downgraded. For雜役 disciples, the consequence of being downgraded is to be directly expelled from Wenda Sect.

The reason for the re-examination is twofold: first, to urge disciples to cultivate diligently and create a sense of urgency for them; second, to avoid any oversight during the initial three trials, thus ensuring that no promising disciples are missed. It also provides these new disciples with a second chance.

After the examination, there will be some small competitions mainly for sparring, in order to hone the disciples' practical combat abilities.

Some people have exceptional talent in their cultivation, but lack combat experience. When facing others, they wield their power ineffectively and ultimately lose to opponents with inferior realms.

After all, any sect, if it wants to develop and grow stronger, can't do without fighting with others. Just as Jiang Wanli once told Jiang Yun, this world is a place where the weak are prey to the strong!

Therefore, the sect allows disciples to spar with each other, and even organizes small competitions every year on each peak. Every three years, there is a grand competition for the entire sect.

In general, retesting is highly valued for all new initiates. In the history of the former Q Dao sect, there have indeed been many examples where individuals performed poorly in the initial three trials but excelled during retesting, leading to a direct promotion of their status.

Even, it is said that Fang YuXuan, who is now regarded as the first disciple among the inner disciples of the Question Dao Sect, was directly promoted from an outer disciple to an inner disciple during the re-examination. Because he had improved four levels in a row and performed brilliantly in the competition, he not only entered the inner sect but also became the apprentice of the headmaster of the main peak. Since then, he has soared to great heights.

A flash of ghostly light in Jiang Yun's hand, and the black stone had been tucked back into his dantian. When he pushed open the door and walked out, Dong Fangbo was already smiling at him, "Jiang little brother, are you nervous"

Jiang Yun also smiled faintly: "Don't worry!"

Although he only stayed at the Zhendo Sect for half a year, with the guidance of his senior brother Dongfang Bo, a master with extensive theoretical knowledge, and his second senior sister who was skilled in magic arts, coupled with his own comprehension and the rich collection of books in the library, Jiang Yun is no longer the novice who knew nothing about cultivation as he once was.

Dong Fang Bo's words were just a casual remark. He still vividly remembered how Jiang Yun had reached the third level of Tong Mai cultivation in just half an hour, and how he had injured the tiger with a single finger. Moreover, even Dong Fang Bo himself couldn't see through Jiang Yun's current realm, so he wasn't worried about testing him at all.

"By the way, did your second senior sister teach you the little trick you need"

"That's taught me!"

Not long ago, Jiang Yun specially asked his second senior sister for a method to conceal his cultivation level, in order to retain some of his strength during the re-examination.

Although everyone wants to make a name for themselves in the re-examination, Jiang Yun is just the opposite. He would rather stay on this Cangfeng Peak, following Dongfang Bo and his second senior sister in cultivation, than become a disciple among the Five Peaks of Inquiry.

Besides, his cultivation speed far surpassed that of others. Once it spread, it wouldn't necessarily be a good thing for him, and it would inevitably bring some unnecessary trouble. Therefore, his requirement for the retest was simply to pass!

"That's good. I have something to take care of and need to go out for a while. It will be a few days at the shortest, maybe half a month before I can come back. So I won't be able to accompany you to the re-examination today!"

"Great!"

Eastern Bo, after nodding at Jiang Yun, waved his sleeve. Suddenly, a patch of emerald green leaves appeared beneath him. They grew with the wind and instantly transformed into ten zhang long.

Immediately after the leaves flashed, they suddenly lifted Eastern Bo and charged into the sky. After a moment, there was no trace of them left.

Although Jiang Yun and Dongfang Bo were already very familiar with each other, he had never asked about Dongfang Bo's cultivation level, nor had he ever seen Dongfang Bo cast any spells.

Today, is the first time I've seen it!

However, Jiang Yun wasn't too surprised. In his opinion, Dongfang Bo and his second senior sister should at least be at the Fu Di realm of cultivation. Therefore, being able to fly with a flying weapon was perfectly normal.

Gazing at Dongfang Bo's retreating figure, Jiang Yun pondered another matter. Just now, he keenly sensed a trace of solemnity deep in Dongfang Bo's eyes!

"Big brother, did you run into some trouble"

Although Gingercloud had some doubts in his heart, since his senior brother hadn't spoken up, he didn't feel comfortable asking. Besides, if there was truly a problem even his senior brother couldn't solve, he probably wouldn't be much help either.

However, Jiang Yun still felt uneasy and decided to go to the waterfall to inform his second senior sister. However, when he arrived at the waterfall, he was astonished to find that his second senior sister had also disappeared.

This made him realize instantly that Zang Feng must have encountered something, and the fact that both his senior brothers and sisters had disappeared at the same time probably had something to do with the peak master of Zang Feng's peak, or perhaps the third senior brother.

These two people have yet to appear!

After a moment of contemplation before the waterfall, Jiang Yun finally turned and walked toward the foot of Zang Peak.

No matter what the elder brother and his companions encountered, he couldn't help. It was better to pass this re-examination first and then find an opportunity to ask if there was anything he could do.made him forget himself.When Tian Yu retracted his fist, Jiang Yun finally spoke, "Brother Tian Yu, what brings you here again"Tian Yu, upon hearing this, the joy on his face instantly turned into an...
