Beginning with the Five Animals Fist to Become a Saint

Chapter 407: Breaking the Limit, Swift Wind and Thunder, Wen Ju Tong Shi (Monthly Ticket Plus 12)

The next day.

It is still cloudy and rainy.

Before the morning light breaks, heaven and earth seem to be falling into a dark abyss.

[Source Energy]: 8404 (6703→8404)

Looking at his panel, his eyes narrowed slightly.

It indeed broke the eight thousand mark.

Increase 1701 energy points per day.

But it is indeed not as cost-effective as the Baotai Yiqi Dan, nor as good as the ancient fairy treasure purchased in Wanhua Tower that day.

“But it’s still okay!”

He nodded again.

Because compared to the Baotai Yiqi Dan, the immortal treasure Xuanyang Ginseng has almost no negative effects.

Unlike the Baotai Yiqi Dan, it does not leave tiny impurities and erysipelas in the human body.

Over time, it will have a great impact on the human body.

Afterwards, he got up and continued to refine his marrow to maintain the growth of his strength.

For the remaining source energy points, he could only temporarily count on Bai Luoyu's reward for meritorious service.

He can only wait patiently in this regard.

In the blink of an eye.

Two days later.

It has been raining continuously for the past two days.

Dongling City became more and more lively, hosting many literary gatherings, poetry gatherings, elegant gatherings and banquets.

But these gatherings have nothing to do with Jiang Ning.

In the past few days, he has been practicing martial arts at home.

Still maintaining the rhythm of not leaving the front door or stepping out of the back door.

The same is true for Lin Qingyi.

He has been staying in the mansion these days, and the place he goes out most often is to Jiang Ning's yard, watching Jiang Ning practice his martial arts.

Never stepped out of the door.

Before, he was worried that Lin Qingyi might do something weird, but after a few days, he felt much more at ease.

Wake up this day.

I saw that the sky was much brighter than the previous few days.

He immediately looked out the window.

Although the sky was still chaotic, it was not yet dawn.

But it was obvious that the clouds had dispersed and the continuous rain had stopped.

Especially the red glow in the distant east and the rising sun told him that today was a very good day.

His face suddenly lit up with joy.

The continuous rain over the past few days also made it impossible for him to breathe in the essence of the sun and increase his experience in internal alchemy and health-preserving exercises.

This technique, which he considered extremely important, had delayed its progress a lot.

Now that the clouds have cleared and the rain has stopped, this also means that he can continue to stay on the right track, breathing in the essence of the sun, and increasing the experience points of the inner alchemy health-preserving exercises.

Then after getting up.

He glanced at his panel again.

[Source Energy]: 8429
The source energy points did not increase significantly in the past few days, only increasing by about twenty points.

[Skill]: Wind and Thunder Step + (break limit 2000/2000 at a time) (Feature: Breath of Wind)

The most obvious change is the Wind and Thunder Step. The experience value is complete and has reached the level where it can break the limit at any time.

Apart from this, the biggest improvement is the progress of marrow refining.

[Realm]: Fourth-grade marrow refining (931/1999)

The progress of marrow refining is about to exceed a thousand.

These past few days, his training and cultivation was basically focused on refining his marrow.

The vague threat from Xiao Qiu Shui made him never dare to relax.

Once Xiao Qiu Shui succeeds, he will become the first master of heaven and man in Dongling County in recent years.

He had to treat such an existence with caution.

That's just a possibility.

But Xiao Qiu Shui is extremely talented, and he has stayed at the peak of the fourth level for such a long time, so his accumulation is probably extremely deep.

Some time ago, Xiao Qiuyue was even asked to come and die, just to allow her to sever all emotions and reach the state of supreme oblivion, thus entering the realm of harmony between man and nature.

The existence of this incident greatly increased Xiao Qiu Shui's possibility of entering the third rank and achieving a celestial being.

After getting up.

Jiang Ning pushed open the door and smelled the fresh air after the rain. He immediately felt refreshed.

He looked at the panel again.

[Source Energy]: 8429
[Skill]: Wind and Thunder Step + (break limit 2000/2000 at a time) (Feature: Breath of Wind)

Ever since he completed the experience points for the Wind and Thunder Step yesterday, he has been considering whether he should allow the Wind and Thunder Step to complete the second limit-breaking process.

For him now, the second breakthrough of the Wind and Thunder Step does not seem to be that much.

It only costs two hundred source energy points.

Two hundred source energy points don't seem to be a lot compared to eight thousand.

However, before the source energy points exceed ten thousand points, every point is precious, let alone two hundred points.

That's why he kept thinking and hesitating.

At the same time, the breaking of the limit of Wind and Thunder Step will definitely improve strength, but it is definitely not very obvious.

This is also the reason why he hesitated.

Now seeing the sky brighten after the rain, he suddenly understood and made a decision.

Immediately a thought came to my mind.

The source energy points suddenly decreased by two hundred points.

[Source Energy]: 8229 (8420→8229)

After a while.

All changes on the panel are finalized.

[Skills]: Wind and Thunder Step (Second Break Limit 66/3000) (Features: Breath of Wind, Swift Wind and Thunder)
[Swift Wind and Thunder]: The talent for physical skills is extremely high. The learning ability and the ability to comprehend physical skills will be greatly increased.

Looking at the simple and clear introduction on the panel, he nodded repeatedly.

Nice and useful feature!
This is his opinion on this feature.

immediately.

He jumped up and began to test the changes after the Wind and Thunder Step broke the limit.

The whole person suddenly turned into a wisp of green smoke and flew out of the courtyard wall.

The Wind and Thunder Steps after breaking the limit for the second time seemed to have broken some invisible shackles. At the moment when the morning breeze whistled in his ears, he suddenly had some strange enlightenment, as if he could hear the breathing of the wind.

In a flash, with the sound of his clothes rustling, he had stepped onto the treetops ten feet away.

The moment his toes touched the leaves, invisible true energy spread out like ripples, and the branches and leaves all tilted towards the southeast, as if guiding the wind direction for him.

A smile appeared on his lips, and his footsteps were light among the branches and leaves covered with morning dew.

With every step you take, your true energy forms a subtle resonance with the surrounding airflow.

At this moment, the body movements are as natural and smooth as breathing.

With a sudden sound, he flew towards the top of the mountain.

The morning mist on the top of the mountain suddenly surged violently, and the cyclone created by his running tore a crack in it.

laugh--

His afterimage passed through the bamboo forest, and dozens of bamboo leaves suddenly hovered in the air strangely.

It was not until his figure appeared in front of the waterfall a hundred feet away that the bamboo leaves exploded into powder.

Walking on the waves, with every step you take, the surging waves under your feet will explode.

It felt like a cannonball was roaring beneath my feet.

After crossing the waterfall, his figure turned into overlapping afterimages, and he then rushed into the jungle.

Every step he took created ripples in the air that were visible to the naked eye.

At this moment, he seemed to be riding the wind in Feng Xu.

A cyclone formed behind him, and the evergreen leaves behind him turned into a long dark green dragon.

Running among the mountains and forests, between the treetops.

Feeling the beauty of the jungle in the early morning and listening to the breathing of the wind, the more he ran, the more relaxed he felt.

When he reached the top of a high mountain.

The dark green tornado behind him engulfed countless leaves like a giant dragon tearing through the clouds.

He looked back and jumped off the mountain again.

When the sky was full of broken leaves exploding on the top of the mountain and falling down one after another, but not all of them fell to the ground.

He had already floated back onto the bluestone slabs in the courtyard.

At this moment, the morning light just pierced through the clouds, turning the fine electric light surrounding his body into light gold.

Looking down, I found that there was not even a drop of dew on the soles of my shoes.

He suddenly turned his head and looked at the crabapple bud in the corner.

When I was testing my skills just now, I clearly remembered that a petal was swept away by the energy, but now I saw that bright red petal lying quietly at the place where I jumped just now.

It turned out that after running twenty miles into the mountains, it would only take a moment to return.

March 5th.

Winter-spring socializing.

The morning sun shines through the clouds like golden light, shining on the ancient city walls.

The originally quiet Dongling City had already become lively. The avenues that extended in all directions were filled with hawking sounds and noisy scenes everywhere.

Today is Daxia's annual civil service examination.

This day is also one of the days most anticipated by students all over the world.

After years of hard work, today they will finally turn into butterflies. Once they succeed, the common people will instantly cross the social class, gain fame and honor, and become nobles.

From then on, he was free from the life of facing the loess and back to the sky, and from the hard work for a whole year, in the end, only two or three taels of millet were left, and only the earth-colored glaze was visible at the bottom of the jar.

In front of Jiangning Mansion.

Liu Wanwan carefully straightened Jiang Yiming's collar and smoothed out the wrinkles on his body.

"Ming'er, did you bring the pancakes?" Liu Wanwan reminded.

"Mom, don't worry! I have brought everything!" Jiang Yiming patted his chest.

The pancakes for lunch and dinner are now placed close to his body.

"Young Master, why don't you take it with you?" Lu Yi said.

"No need!" Jiang Ning smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about me. I can be fine without food or water for ten days or half a month! Not to mention just today!"

Children's test.

Enter at 9:00 pm.

The hour of Hai just ended.

You need to stay in the Gongyuan for a whole day.

Therefore, students need to bring their own dry food.

Afterwards, Luyi also helped Jiang Ning tidy up his Confucian robes.

Because he was going to take part in the civil service examination today, Luyi had already tailored a set of Confucian clothing for Jiang Ning.

Compared to usual, wearing the scholar's robe made Jiang Ning look more like a scholar, and his aura became softer.

"Go ahead, go to the Imperial Examination Hall with your uncle!" Liu Wanwan patted Jiang Yiming on the shoulder.

Jiang Yiming nodded and came to Jiang Ning.

"uncle!"

"Let's go!" Jiang Ning smiled.

Then he carried a package and handed the Sumeru Ring to Luyi.

To enter the Imperial Examination Hall to take the Tongshi examination, one needs to undergo a body search.

There is favoritism and fraud in placement.

As for the Sumeru Ring, it is not allowed to be carried.

Once any violation is discovered, the candidate will be disqualified from the examination, expelled from the Imperial Academy, and will not be allowed to take the examination again for three to five years.

In serious cases, the offender may be banned from taking exams for life and thrown into prison.

Gongyuan
There are three main gates.

The red-lacquered and copper-nailed dragon gates exude a chilling air, and each gate is embossed with dragon patterns.

Two bronze statues of Xiezhi beasts stand on both sides of the gate.

At the entrance, there was a crowd of people, and everyone was holding their household registration ID and the entry token that had been issued long ago.

It's time.

The bright sunshine enveloped everyone, and the vermilion lacquered and copper-nailed dragon gate slowly opened.

After a while.

After verifying his identity, Jiang Ning passed through the Dragon Gate.

"Unbutton your collar! Take off your boots!"

The bailiff spoke.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning took off his shoes and Confucian robes and put on a white inner garment.

at this time.

A squad leader came over hurriedly.

He waved away the bailiff who was about to search him and quickly came to Jiang Ning.

"Commander Jiang!" He lowered his head slightly.

"You are." Jiang Ning looked surprised.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know me, sir. I know you. I didn't expect you to come to participate in the children's exam. I was ignorant and neglectful just now. Please forgive me!"

Although the sound was small, the students who were being searched nearby could clearly hear it.

One of them looked at Jiang Ning with angry eyes.

At this moment, Jiang Ning nodded.

“Just check as normal!”

"Yes, sir! My name is Li Chao, and I will check it carefully according to the rules." The man finished speaking and then leaned over.

"Sir, I'm sorry!" He apologized again.

Then he started with a simple search through the clothes and fooled me twice.

"No problem!" He took out a piece of bamboo paper and handed it to Jiang Ning.

"Sir, this is your examination room serial number! You can go inside to get your clothes and put them on again!" Li Chao said respectfully.

Jiang Ning nodded.

He walked towards the house.

Not only his clothes, but also the pens, ink, paper and inkstone he carries with him will be carefully inspected.

Behind him, he faintly heard a few words.

"That's not fair!!"

Then there were a few scoldings from the yamen runners, and then someone shouted loudly.

"Take him inside for a full body check, suspect he has something on his body!"

Hearing the noise behind him, Jiang Ning couldn't help but shook his head.

He couldn't comment on whether it was fair or not, but he had a clear conscience.

This is enough!

And the person behind him is not just or not, but at least he is not smart.

When you are not strong enough, any resistance to injustice is almost futile.

Even sacrificing in vain.

At least, it would only be meaningful if there was planning and strategizing.

After entering the house, he put on his Confucian robes and boots again.

Then he picked up his own pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

He looked at the bamboo paper that Li Chao had just handed him.

Jiajiu.

Jiajiu?

It seems that the environment should be pretty good!
Jiang Ning nodded.

As far as he knew, the examination rooms were divided into four levels: A, B, C, and D.

There is no difference between them. The only difference is that the A-type examination room is cleaner, tidier and more spacious.

The T-shaped one is even dirtier and messier.

Correspondingly, the allocation of examination rooms also depends on the individual.

There is nothing fair about this.

But there has never been true fairness in the world.

Even relative fairness is rare.

Jiajiu.

Jiang Ning looked up at the mark on the roof and then entered the house.

The house of several hundred square meters is divided into compartments.

Jiang Ning glanced across the entire audience.

I nodded slightly in my heart.

Although it was not luxurious, it was clean and tidy, and it was obvious that it had just been cleaned.

He then found the fake nine cubicle and sat down.

Quietly waiting for the children's test to begin.

Figures filed in one after another, and soon the bustling No. A examination room was filled.

……

Haishi.

The sky is filled with stars.

The night is thick.

When the bell rang, Jiang Ning slowly opened his eyes.

The image of the rising sun that he had visualized in his mind slowly dissipated.

He had completed all the exams long before the hour of Hai and before the hour of Xu.

The reason why he can be so efficient is that he writes with inspiration.

This is because the examination for students with disabilities is mainly based on the basics.

As long as you have memorized the meaning of each book and can recite it by heart, fluently and easily quote it, it will not be difficult to pass the examination for students of higher learning.

But it is so difficult to recite it by heart and quote it easily.

This kind of citation is not a citation from the classics, but a citation from any sentence or paragraph.

Just by looking at a sentence or a paragraph, you can know which book, page, or paragraph it comes from.

Only in this way can the requirements be met.

This step is extremely difficult for ordinary students.

But for Jiang Ning, it was extremely simple.

His photographic memory allows him to deeply imprint something in his mind after just one viewing, making it extremely difficult to forget.

Therefore, for him, the Tongsheng examination was just a matter of copying the answers, so he naturally finished it early.

Finally I can go out!
Seeing that the invigilator had stood up, his eyes swept across the room like a sword.

When other staff members began to collect the test papers and seal them separately, he knew that the Tongsheng examination was completely over and he would be able to leave soon.
