From a Zhengyi Taoist Child to a Master of All Laws

Chapter 357 There are gods beyond the clouds

"What a broken stone picked up from the mountain, flashy but useless..."

Chen Li claimed that she was well-versed in all kinds of brand trends, but she couldn't recognize anything of the person in front of her who was playing with stones.

That’s true restrained luxury.

"call out!"

The young man from the chaebol family couldn't see through the mystery at all, and threw the stone in his hand with force.

A perfect parabola, Wang Shuhuan and Chen Li's eyes lit up, and they moved quickly towards the direction of the stone in silence.

The landing point should not be far away. Wang Shuhuan walked to the landing point and saw a man with a lump on his forehead cursing from afar.
"Who is so uncultured? Throwing things around and dropping them from high places hurts me so much!"

This is a boy of about seventeen or eighteen years old, holding his forehead in pain, and in his hand, he is holding a piece of five-colored stone.

The boy has an ordinary look, a standard face, as if he had just finished the college entrance examination. His looks are the kind that can disappear immediately in a crowd. The only thing that leaves an impression on people is the slightly ruffian look in his eyes and eyebrows.

Then, Chen Li pursed her lips, stepped forward and mustered up the courage to say: "I'm sorry, we just threw this stone carelessly in a moment of impulse, can you return it to us? We can compensate you!"

The boy didn't seem to care about the stone in his hand, and said happily: "Oh, you think this is ancient times, there is compensation, do you want to pledge yourself to me?"

Wang Shuhuan pulled Chen Li behind him and took out the living expenses for the past few days from his pocket: "Sorry, this is indeed our problem. This is our compensation. I hope you can forgive us."

The boy's face twitched, and after thinking for a long time, he reluctantly handed the stone to Wang Shuhuan: "Forget it, it doesn't matter if I give it back to you. Maybe we can be in the same school in the future."

Wang Shuhuan was overjoyed and reached out to take the five-colored stone:
"Thank you! My name is Wang Shuhuan, and this person is Chen Li. We are from Quanzhou in southern Fujian. Can you tell us your name? If we can be in the same school in the future, we will definitely support each other!"

Wang Shuhuan and Chen Li didn't notice that the boy's knuckles were turning white while holding the five-colored stone, but he still let go of his hand the moment Wang Shuhuan touched the five-colored stone.

"My name is Liu Ming, and I'm from Meishan in southern Sichuan." The boy also introduced himself.
-
July 1st, Baiyun Mountain.

Early in the morning, before daybreak, the clouds that had gathered on Baiyun Mountain gradually dissipated. Eight hundred thousand examinees woke up from their tents, and seeing the indigo mountain landscape gradually reveal its true appearance, they were shocked and quickly lined up in groups.

Baiyun Mountain is more than 300 square kilometers, and the front mountain is nearly 1,000 meters above sea level. Later, the magic circle was covered, and Li Yang used the Dutiansi Divine Bell, Yinglingshe Qigong Seal, and Xue Ruyi Sanbao to set up the Xuanwu Nourishing Blood Array in the mountain.

The entire mountain can be said to be a gathering of clouds and spirits. It is changing subtly every day, and the mountain is still rising.

Shrouded in clouds and mist, it feels like a hidden world with an immortal atmosphere.

The above mentioned are probably the initial impressions of Baiyun Mountain for the 800,000 examinees.

The 800,000 people were divided into 40 groups, each with 20,000 people, and went up the mountain one by one to take the final test.

"My name is Wang Xin, and I'm the person in charge of the admissions interviews at Baiyun Taoist Academy."

At the foot of the mountain, Wang Xin, dressed in a green Taoist robe, managed to steady his trembling calves. He looked around indifferently and with a sense of oppression, imitating the way he saw on TV. When the crowd was completely silent, he spoke loudly into the microphone:
"Everyone knows that today, Baiyun Taoist Academy is opening its doors to accept disciples. The specific procedures are now all in the hands of Baiyun Taoist Academy. Before we begin, let us first make it clear that the real learning of Taoism will definitely be different from what you imagine, and not everyone can get what they want.

We have lowered the standards to the lowest level.

Finally, I would like to make one more point. Even if you successfully pass today's test, entering Baiyun Taoist Temple is not a one-time thing.

If you succeed in becoming a student, your first year will be a probation period. By this time next year, if you have cultivated the sense of Qi and entered the Qi-inducing realm, you will be qualified and can stay to formally teach the Dao. If you fail, you will retain this year's college entrance examination results and leave the Daoist academy!"

hum!
As soon as Wang Xin finished speaking, the whole audience was in an uproar. They were not questioning him, but they had already anticipated some rumors and regulations. They were arguing about various issues:

"What are the criteria for entering the Taoist Academy?"

"Yes, we are talking about interviews, but interviews must also have a scoring sheet, right?"

"If I fail next year, can I take the entrance exam again? If I keep working on the mountain, I will eventually be able to develop some kind of Qi sense, right?"

"What will we be taught in the first year? If the academy doesn't teach us anything, how can we cultivate our sense of energy?" And so on. Those with strange thinking patterns have already started to study the bugs in the rules.

Wang Xin frowned, put on a stern face, used his Qiling Qi, and pointed at the microphone: "Quiet!!"

Squeak...squeak...

An extremely sharp sound was amplified through the loudspeaker. Everyone covered their ears and the noise suddenly stopped.

"I will only explain, not answer. If you can't accept it, please leave now!" Wang Xin said seriously.

"Anyway, the Taoist Academy selection will not affect the traditional college enrollment at the end of July. If you withdraw now, it will not have any impact on you."

In fact, not all of the six million people who passed the admission line filled out the application form.

Perhaps they were self-aware and did not think they could be selected; perhaps they were spoiled and felt they could not endure hardship, so out of the six million candidates, less than five million actually filled out their applications for admission to colleges and universities.

"..."

There was an eerie silence for a moment, and some people actually withdrew, but they were very few and could be ignored compared to the terrifying base of 800,000.

"Okay! Now those who remain will follow the arrangement of the past two days, 20,000 per team, and go up the mountain according to the number. Today we will only check five groups, a total of 100,000 people, and go from one end of the mountain gate to the other..."

"Candidates whose interviews are scheduled in the next few days, please return to the tents and wait quietly. Don't cause any trouble!"

With such a huge base, it was only thanks to the authorities that they had prepared multimedia and broadcasting in advance. Otherwise, even if Wang Xin shouted that he was exhausted, it would be impossible to hear what he was saying in the huge crowd.

So everyone got busy again, some going back to the resettlement areas, some watching the excitement. The first team of 20,000 people stood up and rushed to the front, sticking closely together like a long dragon.

Soon after, Zhu Ling and Zhao Ziyao came out of the mountain and shouted, "Team One, follow us forward!"

Hurala!
A long line of people crossed the temporary platform, walked forward for a distance, and arrived at the edge of the ghost gate formation that was originally set up.

"Into the mountains!"

"Into the mountains!"

"..."

The clouds and mist rose again at some point, slowly lingering over the entire mountain.

All the scenery is below the clouds, all hidden, and the vast expanse looks mysterious and weird.

This is the first time for most people to come into such close contact with clouds.

In front of the clouds, Zhu Ling and Zhao Ziyao urged and maintained the order of the team. The candidates looked left and right, and finally there was a brave one who closed his eyes and rushed into the clouds.

Most of the candidates in the first team were from southern Fujian Province and cities. Wang Shuhuan and Chen Li looked at each other. They had all been through this fog before and knew what would happen after entering.

Zhu Ling, who was wearing a white robe and a wooden hairpin, recognized Wang Shuhuan early in the morning. He shook his head and recited in a clear voice:

"There are gods beyond the thirty-three heavens and beyond the clouds in the ninth heaven"

"Gods and immortals are mortals in disguise, but they are afraid that mortals are not determined enough"

Knowing that Zhu Ling was trying to wake him up on purpose, Wang Shuhuan straightened his face, nodded, and then immersed himself in the mist with a determined look on his face.

After engulfing 20,000 people, there was no more movement in the cloud, except for the next group of people who were about to enter the cloud, who kept looking out from the foot of the mountain.
