Qi Haozhi felt complicated, but more of it was anger and shame.
He started practicing from the first day he entered Xiaoyao Sect, and only broke through the first level of Qi training a few days ago. However, this ugly girl who clearly couldn't even read had the same level of cultivation as him!
Doesn't this mean that the ugly girl's cultivation speed is faster than mine
No, that's impossible!
Xu Chunniang frowned. Why was this person as annoying as a fly
She’s only at the first level of Qi training, can’t she break through
How could these people know how much time and energy she had invested in her cultivation!
"Get out of my way! You're blocking me from choosing a spell!"
Xu Chunniang said expressionlessly.
Qi Haozhi did not move away, but stared at Xu Chunniang, "I see, you must have used spirit stones to practice, right?"
Xu Chunniang just thought he was weird. What did it have to do with him whether she used the spirit stones or not
But there was nothing to deny. She crossed her arms and looked at Qi Haozhi sideways.
"So what? Even if I have been using spirit stones to cultivate since the first day I tried to draw Qi into my body, you can't do anything about it, right?"
After hearing her "explanation", a look of realization flashed across Qi Haozhi's face.
No wonder her cultivation speed was faster, it turned out that she had been using spirit stones.
He soon figured out why the ugly girl would use spirit stones to practice directly.
It must be because the dormitory she was assigned to was too bad and the spiritual energy was too thin to practice, so she had to use spirit stones.
After finding the reason, Qi Haozhi's expression relaxed again.
Even if the ugly girl has six more spirit stones than him, so what? It’s only six spirit stones, but she is assigned to a dormitory where she can’t practice at all. When the spirit stones in her hand are used up, she will cry!
He is indeed a lowly peasant with short-sightedness!
Thinking of this, Qi Haozhi's mood quickly improved. He didn't even bother to look at Xu Chunniang again. He even felt that his previous behavior was a little ridiculous. He was actually nervous because of a peasant.
He raised his chin and left with his chosen technique.
Seeing Qi Haozhi's expression become inexplicably arrogant, Xu Chunniang was confused but too lazy to care about it and started to choose the magic on her own.
She looked at this book, then touched that book, she really wanted them all!
It has been more than two months since Xu Chunniang entered the Immortal Sect. She is no longer the ignorant little village girl she used to be. Naturally, she knows that one cannot chew too much.
More importantly, new disciples are only allowed to choose two books of magic for free.
She murmured to herself, "I have three spiritual roots: water, wood, and earth. It would be best for me to choose magic with these three attributes.
During the previous spiritual root test, they said that my water spiritual root was the best, with a purity of 60, followed by wood spiritual root, with a purity of only 45, and earth spiritual root was the worst, with a purity of only 35.
From this point of view, the most suitable magic for me should be water attribute magic, followed by wood attribute magic, and finally earth attribute magic.
If you can only choose two, then choose one with water attributes and one with wood attributes!"
Xu Chunniang set her eyes on a book called "Water Arrow Technique" and was about to pick it up, but paused.
One can tell at first glance that water arrows are an offensive technique. After learning it, she will be able to have a certain degree of self-protection ability.
However, before one's cultivation reaches the fourth level of Qi training, water arrow technique is almost useless as long as one does not fight with others.
The protection period for new disciples is only three years. After three years, no matter how high or low her cultivation is, she must pay contribution points to the sect.
If she paid one point a month, she would have to pay a full twelve points a year, plus the annual expense of six spirit stones for the fasting pills. Even if she did not use the spirit stones for cultivation, she would still have to earn enough contribution points and spirit stones in a year.
A little contribution can be exchanged for a spirit stone, but a spirit stone cannot buy a little contribution.
There are ways to get spirit stones, but contribution points can only be obtained by completing tasks or commissions, and all disciples are no exception.
If it were anyone else, they wouldn't be so worried, but Xu Chunniang was different. She had offended Manager Zhang before. If Manager Zhang deliberately made trouble for her, she might not be able to earn so many contribution points.
Xu Chunniang's eyes passed over the "Water Arrow Technique" and fell on the "Spiritual Rain Technique".
Her spiritual roots are water, wood and earth, which makes her very suitable for developing in the direction of spiritual plants.
The Spiritual Rain Technique is also a single water-attribute technique, but it is a completely auxiliary technique, and is also a must-learn technique for those who want to enter the "Spiritual Plant" category among the 100 arts of cultivating immortals.
As for the function of "Spirit Rain Technique", it is used to water spiritual plants.
Having made up her mind, Xu Chunniang reluctantly gave up the powerful "Water Arrow Technique" and chose "Spirit Rain Technique" instead.
As for the second book of magic, Xu Chunniang thought about it and decided to go all out, so she chose the wood-based "Spring Life Technique".
"The Art of Spring Growth" is also a must-learn method for those who are interested in learning the "Spiritual Plant" major. Since she is determined to develop in the direction of spiritual plants, she naturally cannot do without the "Art of Spring Growth" which can accelerate the growth of plants.
The person in charge of copying the magic techniques in the Transmission Pavilion was a female cultivator. After seeing her choose for a long time and finally pick out a book on the Spirit Rain Technique and a book on the Spring Birth Technique, she didn't say anything.
The female cultivator manager quickly copied the jade slips and handed them to her. She said solemnly, "Remember, any technique of Xiaoyao Sect must not be passed on to outsiders!"
Xu Chunniang nodded. She had memorized the sect's rules by heart and knew that passing on the sect's techniques to outsiders without permission was a serious crime and the person would have their cultivation abolished and be expelled from the fairy mountain.
As for why the disciple who taught the magic privately was not killed, Xu Chunniang thought it was probably for deterrence.
After all, asking a person who has embarked on the immortal path to become a mortal again is more painful than letting him die.
After receiving the jade slip, Xu Chunniang walked out of the Transmission Pavilion and headed towards the dormitory. On the way, she passed by the Teaching Hall and hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not go in.
The lessons given by the senior brothers in the teaching hall are certainly good, but what is more important to her right now is to improve her cultivation. After all, cultivation is the foundation of everything.
Moreover, the techniques that the uncle masters taught were all advanced techniques that could only be learned in the middle and late stages of Qi training. Entry-level auxiliary techniques such as "Spirit Rain Technique" and "Spring Birth Technique" were probably not even mentioned.
As the sun was setting, Xu Chunniang reached the foot of the mountain where her dormitory was located. However, she did not choose to go up the mountain, but continued to head south.
Although she only stayed outside the dormitory for a short while last time, she also felt that the spiritual energy on the top of the mountain could almost be described as barren.
Now that she had a better place to practice and live, she naturally would not think of living in that ramshackle house.
After walking south for half an hour, we finally reached the cave before dark.
Xu Chunniang was very satisfied when she saw that the pile of weeds she used to cover the entrance of the cave had not been disturbed at all.
The only thing that made her unhappy was that every time she entered from the outside, she would inevitably fall into the pool of water...
Fortunately, the disciple uniforms issued by Xiaoyao Sect were not only dust-proof and cold-resistant, but also waterproof. She climbed ashore wet, but her clothes were dry and comfortable.
After her hair was dry, Xu Chunniang began to practice as usual. Without the aid of the spirit stone, her practice speed slowed down noticeably.
At the moment, Xu Chunniang was not as anxious as she was before when she was trapped, so she was naturally reluctant to use the spirit stones directly to practice. Although the speed of practice was a bit slow, this was the only way.
