Manager Mu nodded, "Of course it's excellent. The assessment for both of you is over, you can go back now."
They both walked off the stage and walked together without any prior arrangement.
The other outer disciples burst into laughter when they saw this scene, "These two fools actually have something in common."
"That's why I say they are fools. People go to high places and water flows to low places. If they don't even understand this principle, what's the point of practicing?"
Different from the outer disciples who laughed at them, the inner disciples remained silent, but their eyes were cold as they looked at the two of them.
If you reject their recruitment, it means you are not taking them seriously!
A cruel smile flashed in Huangfu Yao's eyes. If Xu Chunniang became Wei Dawu's follower, she might have been more cautious, but she was seeking death herself, so she couldn't blame anyone else!
Xu Chunniang and Su Chen had no idea what was happening behind them. After getting away from the crowd, she took the initiative to say hello, "Hello, my name is Xu Chunniang."
Su Chen nodded slightly, "I am Su Chen."
The two looked at each other and smiled tacitly, neither asking the other why they did not accept the offer.
"I've actually known about you for a long time." Xu Chunniang thought for a moment and said, "I heard from the senior brother guarding the north gate that a new disciple named Su Chen went to the Hundred Demons Mountain Range to train alone. I didn't expect to meet you in person so soon."
"That's nothing. Didn't you go there to practice alone?" Su Chen blinked. "But I've known you for a long time. It's not that I heard it from Senior Brother Beimen. You left a deep impression on me during the exam two years ago."
Xu Chunniang was a little embarrassed. The quiz two years ago was so embarrassing. She was almost late and was openly embarrassed by Zhang Donglai.
She changed the subject abruptly, "The Hundred Demons Mountain Range is pretty good. I can go there more often when my cultivation level is higher."
Su Chen showed a look of approval, "Just standing there and people coming up to offer resources, it is indeed a good place."
Xu Chunniang's eyes showed confusion. Why didn't someone give her resources just by standing there
But then she realized that the people he was talking about sending resources were the group of robber monks.
Xu Chunniang couldn't help but have a complicated expression. This guy was so fierce. However, when she thought that she had also made a fortune through counter-robbery, she was speechless.
It seems that there is not much difference between me and this guy.
After chatting for a while, the two parted at a fork in the road, but they agreed to go to the Hundred Demons Mountains together if they had the chance in the future.
However, Xu Chunniang knew that this was just a polite remark. Su Chen and she were of the same type and preferred to practice alone. After all, the path of cultivation was lonely, and there were no so-called teammates.
After returning to her residence, Xu Chunniang put aside other things and began to feel her own cultivation. Sure enough, there were signs of a breakthrough. She no longer hesitated and concentrated on meditating. However, no matter how much Xu Chunniang absorbed spiritual energy, her cultivation did not increase at all.
It's really strange. It was clearly a sudden sign, but why did such a result occur
Xu Chunniang frowned and began to recall the scene when her cultivation was weakened.
She was very excited at the time and wanted to prove herself and see the outside world through her own efforts.
Even an ant dares to shake a tree, and a mantis arm can stop a chariot!
No matter how difficult the road ahead is, she will keep going as always! Even if she dies, she will move forward and never retreat!
As her emotions grew more and more excited, Xu Chunniang's heart became calmer and she entered a mysterious and indescribable state. In this state, spiritual energy from all directions rushed towards her. Soon, her skills started to operate automatically, madly absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy, and her cultivation level rose at a speed far beyond usual.
Under the impact of massive spiritual energy, Xu Chunniang's cultivation level directly broke through the early stage of the fourth level of Qi training, and reached the middle stage, then the late stage, and finally broke through the fourth level of Qi training and reached the fifth level of Qi training!
This is not the end, a huge amount of spiritual energy is absorbed into her body, allowing her cultivation to rise again!
It was not until Xu Chunniang's cultivation was stabilized at the middle stage of the fifth level of Qi training and she was only a step away from the late stage that the spiritual energy completely dissipated and she came out of that mysterious state.
"This is... an epiphany!"
Xu Chunniang's eyes flashed with surprise. In theory, everyone who embarked on the path of cultivation had the opportunity to have a sudden enlightenment, and a sudden enlightenment could improve one's state of mind and cultivation in a short period of time. However, sudden enlightenment rarely happened, at least in the outer sect, no one had ever heard of a sudden enlightenment.
Xu Chunniang felt her own spiritual energy, which was almost eight times more than before. Moreover, the improvement in her cultivation level from her sudden enlightenment was very solid, even more condensed than before.
If she relied on her own practice, it would probably take her at least three or four years to reach this level.
Xu Chunniang's mind slowly calmed down. "But why did I suddenly realize this? Is it because my heart of cultivating the Tao has become clearer?"
She thought about it and only thought of this possibility. So it seemed that her choice was right.
Don't follow the crowd, accept your own weakness, and stick to your own heart.
Xu Chunniang's cultivation level was already one level higher than that of the outer disciples of the same period, and now the gap is getting wider.
However, she did not slack off because of her improved cultivation. Instead, she became more determined in her beliefs.
In the past, Xu Chunniang's goal was only to participate in the outer sect disciple competition, win the foundation-building pill, and successfully build the foundation to enter the inner sect.
But now, building the foundation is no longer her end point, but her first small goal!
Xu Chunniang took a deep breath. She believed that as long as she worked hard enough and kept surpassing herself, the whole world would open up to her!
After her cultivation level improved, Xu Chunniang began to refine the soft armor again. She refined the following layers of formations in one go and occupied the hub in the center.
The soft armor was filled with wind spiritual power. Almost at the moment of refining, Xu Chunniang felt a sense of lightness. This was an auxiliary function of the soft armor, which could increase the speed of the user.
She moved her body slightly, and with a light tap, she jumped out of the cave and ran through the forest.
Obviously, the distance of Lingxu Step was not farther, but Xu Chunniang's speed was almost twice as fast as before, and only her afterimage could be seen.
Xu Chunniang's eyes showed satisfaction. It was worthy of being a mid-grade spiritual weapon with six layers of formations.
After her cultivation level broke through to the fifth level of Qi training, the spiritual energy in Xu Chunniang's body was considerable, but the consumption of the middle-grade spiritual weapon was also astonishing.
Half an hour later, Xu Chunniang paused. At this moment, she still had half of her spiritual energy left in her body. If she continued to control the soft armor, she could last for a full hour.
"This soft armor doesn't have a name yet. Since it's made of Fengyun tiger skin, let's call it Fengyun Armor."
