The Immortal Way is Fierce

Chapter 171 High integrity
"Senior Brother Fan's words are indeed too polite. As a new disciple, I am lucky enough to be able to enter Longxiang Taoist Academy without taking the test. What's more, Senior Brother Fan's identity as the chief disciple of the seventh level of Qi Refining is highly anticipated by everyone. It’s a real sword and a real gun, made through hard work, how can I take away people’s beauty?”

Unexpectedly, Fan Dayong was so open and open, even a little too open. Zhang Jingyuan looked solemn and said seriously.

To be honest, if it was in his previous life, he would really want to compete for the so-called chief disciple if things went wrong.

After all, to become the chief disciple, the reward of one hundred credits per year is indispensable, which is equivalent to two to three hundred spirit stones.

Moreover, after becoming the chief disciple, according to the regulations of Longxiang Taoist Academy, you can have the distribution rights of some spiritual fields, mineral veins, training rooms, caves, tasks, including shops, monster hunting, etc.

Don't underestimate this so-called distribution right. After all, no matter how small the right is, it is still a right. As long as it is a right, it will generate benefits and you can get certain benefits from it.

Although Longxiang Taoist Academy only receives a dozen or so students every year, considering that only after the foundation is established, it can be counted as graduation, and it is necessary to leave Longxiang Taoist Academy.

According to the average foundation-building age of Longxiang Taoist disciples, who are about eighty years old, there are almost more than a thousand students who have been in Longxiang Taoist Institute all year round.

But you must know that not every disciple of Longxiang Taoist Academy can definitely build a foundation. There are still 30% who have no hope of building a foundation in their lifetime. This group of people has accumulated over the years, and there are almost five or six hundred people.

With such a small number of two thousand people, placed in the huge Longxiang Taoist Temple, on average, there may not necessarily be twenty people on each hilltop.

But where there are people, there will be rivers and lakes, there will be interests, and there will be disputes, not to mention these people will stay in Longxiang Taoist Temple for hundreds of years.

During these hundreds of years, these disciples always have to find something to do and learn something other than cultivation.

After all, we can't let these disciples just practice cultivation for hundreds of years and ignore what's going on outside the window, right?

This is a group of people, not donkeys pulling mills, they can't do it, and they can't do it.

Therefore, in Longxiang Taoist Academy, in addition to practicing, these disciples also need to learn various Taoist techniques, alchemy, weapon refining, talismans, puppets, and even enemies, learn about various monsters and beasts, etc., a series of things.

In this case, the question arises. For example, to make elixirs, you must first have a magical elixir. Where can you get this elixir?
Some people will choose to go to places such as Canglang Monster Mountain, where they can not only pick elixirs, but also gain some combat experience and obtain some monster materials.

But other people are willing to plant some elixirs in their spiritual fields, and experience the natural way of reaping the benefits of hard work.

But the right to allocate this spiritual field is in the hands of the chief disciple. How much the chief disciple is willing to give you, which mountain top the spiritual field is allocated to you, and the concentration of spiritual energy are all these will affect the final harvest.

If you want to obtain more and better spiritual fields, you must naturally find a way to build a good relationship with the chief disciple, and even directly share part of the harvest with the chief disciple.

In addition, some teachers will also release some tasks for planting spiritual fields.

There is no doubt that the spiritual fields in the hands of these teachers are the best spiritual fields in the entire Taoist academy.

These tasks released not only have spirit stones and credits as rewards, but if they are planted well, other additional gains can be put into their own storage bags by the disciples who receive the tasks.

Not to mention, helping teachers plant spiritual fields will make it easier to win the teacher's favor.

And some disciples, if they feel that they are short of money, or simply have no hope of building a foundation, but they have learned some methods of alchemy, weapon refining, and talismans, they want to open a shop and get some means of making a living.

It just so happened that Longxiang Taoist Temple, including the shops in the city area around Longxiang Taoist Temple, were all managed by the chief disciple.

So, can the status of this chief disciple be high or not important?

However, in the Taoist Academy, it is not very simple. The chief disciple of each grade can be assigned some additional shares of spiritual fields, shops, mineral veins, etc., and then his cadres can make arbitrary decisions and do whatever they want. Do whatever you want.

Instead, the Taoist Academy handed over these things to the chief association of the Taoist Academy to manage them.

The Chief Association, as the name suggests, is a thing composed of the chiefs of each grade.

Of course, those who can get in are the real chiefs like Fan Dayong, and those who come under the shadow of Zhang Jingyuan are not counted.

Although most chiefs can raise their hands to speak and then vote, the chiefs of Longxiang Taoist Temple are replaced too quickly.

Therefore, the only person who really has the final say is the chief of Qi Refining Dzogchen, who is also the real senior brother among all the disciples of Longxiang Taoist Academy.

His power is three points more powerful than that of ordinary teachers, and he has a high chance of being able to stay in the Taoist Academy to teach.

After all, he is the strongest, and the time from Qi Refining Dzogchen to Foundation Building is also the longest. Sometimes the Qi Refining Dzogchen Chief can sit in this position for twenty years.

Zhang Jingyuan remembered that the longest-serving leader of Qi Refining Dzogchen was probably more than sixty years, a full sixty years, while the shortest record was that of Bai Buhui.

Bai Buhui seems to have been the chief of Qi Refining Dzogchen for more than three years and less than four years. Moreover, Bai Buhui, the Chief of Qi Refining Dzogchen, took the seat during the first Taoist competition after he was promoted to Qi Refining Dzogchen.

In other words, it took less than four years for this woman to complete the Qi Refining Dzogchen and build the foundation. Her Tianling Root was really terrifying.

It is absolutely no exaggeration to say that Longxiang Taoist Temple itself is a small society.

I just want to say that the special system of Longxiang Taoist Academy allows those geniuses who can really suppress a generation to always hold the power of the chief, while the others are quite different. I mean, come to my house this year. .

After all, being able to become the chief basically means that his or her cultivation level will be promoted soon, and once his or her cultivation level is improved, he must be forced to give up the position of chief.

Therefore, for the relatively outstanding Taoist disciples, there is a certain chance that this chief position can be obtained, and it is almost a bit of a loss.

As for why this is done, it is probably because once the disciples of Longxiang Taoist Academy graduate, they must serve in the Taoist Alliance.

No matter how small a foundation-building monk is, he must become the lord of a city and hold certain rights. This chief position is tantamount to allowing them to experience the taste of power in advance.

As for those chiefs who only know how to benefit themselves, once they cause anger and resentment, they will naturally be kicked out of the Taoist Temple early.

After all, even if such a person becomes the lord of a city, he will not be a good lord of the city.

But are these so-called rights and benefits important to Zhang Jingyuan?
It really doesn't matter.

After experiencing half an era in his previous life, how could he still not know that these are all illusions, and only realm and strength are real.

For those foundation-building monks, would they care about the power and power of the so-called chief disciple of Qi Refining Dzogchen?
Will not.

Anyway, in all the years he has been in the Dao Alliance, he has never seen many Qi Refining Dzogchen chiefs. For the sake of this chief position, they deliberately suppressed those who did not improve their realm.

Therefore, he naturally disdained the so-called power and power of the chief disciple. With this time, he might as well work hard to practice.

Anyway, for the chief disciple, the reward of one hundred credits per year will not be given to him less.

Fan Dayong sincerely wanted to give up the position of chief to Zhang Jingyuan, but Zhang Jingyuan firmly refused every time he said it.

Only then did Fan Dayong truly believe that Zhang Jingyuan had no interest in the chief position.

For a moment, Zhang Jingyuan's figure became infinitely majestic in his mind, and he decided that he would hug Zhang Jingyuan's thick legs.

After all, if it were someone else, he would still be the other person. I don’t know what the chief means and what the benefits are, but who is Zhang Jingyuan?

In fact, he has been with Bai Buhui all the time. On the day of the assessment, seeing Zhang Jingyuan hanging on Bai Buhui, and Bai Buhui was not angry at all, I don't know how many people in the entire Longxiang Taoist Temple were moved. Broken.

If such a person says he doesn't know what chief means, he won't believe it to his death.

Therefore, it can only be said that Zhang Jingyuan stands upright in heaven and earth with high integrity, lives in the world with humility, and is extraordinary and refined.

However, although Zhang Jingyuan was unwilling to be the chief, in Fan Dayong's mind, he still treated Zhang Jingyuan as the chief senior brother and accompanied Zhang Jingyuan to go through some admission procedures.

The Taoist disciples who were responsible for going through the admission procedures and earning credits were all shocked and couldn't help themselves.

Those who knew this knew that Fan Dayong was the chief of the seventh level of Qi Refining. If they didn't know this, they would have thought that Fan Dayong was Zhang Jingyuan's younger brother.

In fact, there is nothing much to do in the admission procedures, except to receive the Taoist Academy token, Taoist robe, 100 credits, ten spirit stones, and a bottle of yellow-grade middle-grade Xuanxu Pill.

After having this token, from now on, whether it is the teacher or other disciples, they can contact each other through the token, unless the other party is within the token restriction and is set to refuse contact.

As for the robe, it is very particular, especially the purple robe that Zhang Jingyuan wears, which represents the chief disciple. The seven stars on the chest of the robe represent his seventh level of Qi refining.

This purple robe can basically be equivalent to a yellow-level high-grade magic weapon. It is woven with silk threads tanned with eight different kinds of heavenly materials and earthly treasures. After wearing it, it is invulnerable to all poisons and invulnerable to weapons and weapons, except for monks and monsters who are above the foundation establishment. Only then can it be easily destroyed.

It also depicts a dust-free and cleansing array to ensure that the body is not contaminated with any dirt and keeps the whole body clean.

In addition, there is also an introduction to the various disciplines of Longxiang Taoist Academy, including the location and function of each peak, etc., and miscellaneous information.
