Deduct 1 for merit. I am really not a child of luck.

Chapter 50: The Last Immortal Examination Day, Immortal Foundation Building Method (Seeking Follow-up Reading)
199.叶辰，初试分数：350分（+10分）；秘境分数：210（+30分），总分：600分

……

“It actually added 30 points!”

Old Li said in surprise.

Although the ranking of the Immortal List is not yet stable, most of the Immortal candidates have already been teleported out.

Even so, Ye Chen's score still reached over 100.

The gap was not in the secret realm score, but in the blue treasure he obtained.

Immortal Meng stared at the foundation-building method in Ye Chen's hand and said:

"Friend Ye is indeed the son of destiny, blessed with great fortune. This should be the first foundation-building method in the current Immortal Examination Secret Realm, so the extra points will naturally be very high."

The most precious treasure in the Immortal Examination Secret Realm is naturally the Taoist foundation-building method.

Blue quality treasures correspond to precious foundation-building methods, and the bonus points are higher than those of ordinary treasures.

Immortal Meng turned his head and looked at Principal Zhu and Old Li with a smile, and said, "If Mr. Ye is interested in applying for the Taoist Academy, I would like to welcome Mr. Ye on behalf of the Taoist Academy."

Feng Xianchang also said: "The Qingshan Sect is also like this."

Both Taoist academies actually invited Ye Chen. Although it was not a direct admission, it was still a verbal promise.

Principal Zhu and Lao Li were delighted at first, but then showed puzzled expressions.

Because of Ye Chen’s score, let alone a final comparison.

Even with the extra points added, his performance can only be considered to be below average among the immortal candidates who passed the secret realm this time.

It seems unnecessary for Wendao Academy and Qingshan Sect to invite Ye Chen in person.

After all, Ye Chen is not someone who uses backdoors like Lin Mo.

Could it be that the nine major academies lack the Taoist method of building a foundation?
Immortal Meng saw the confusion of the two and explained, "There are three thousand Taoism methods for foundation building in the Dao Academy, and there are naturally some treasures, but they may not be able to correspond to Young Friend Ye's own foundation."

After hearing his explanation, everyone finally understood.

The foundation-building Taoist method that candidates brush out from the Immortal Examination Secret Realm is most likely a Taoist method that completely matches the candidate's own state.

for example:

For example, a candidate with dual spiritual roots of water and wood will most likely select a foundation-building method such as [Benhua Zhenlu] or [Qingye Xuanzhou] that suits his own spiritual roots.

"In this way, compared with other candidates, Young Master Ye will have a natural advantage in cultivation at the foundation-building stage. Even if he has three spiritual roots, his cultivation speed may not be slower than that of some people with two spiritual roots."

Immortal Meng said: "The path of cultivation is like this, one step ahead, all steps ahead."

Ye Chen, who had obtained the Taoism foundation, had increased his potential and even received invitations from Qingshan Sect and Wendao Academy.

"Okay, great!"

Old Li's face was almost wrinkled with laughter. Principal Zhu was a little more reserved, but also had a happy face, as if a prompt had floated across the system panel:
[Political Achievements +1]

Old Li smiled and muttered curiously: "Ye Chen has come out, why hasn't Lin Mo come out yet?"

When Master Meng heard this, his expression froze again.

Even with a good temper like him, he couldn't help but complain in his heart:
Is this kid poisonous? It's already the third day and he still hasn't come out?
You should know that up to now, most of the immortal candidates have come out, and there are only less than 300 people left in the secret realm.

These 300 people can almost be said to be the most outstanding group of immortal seedlings in this immortal examination, and they are also the high-quality students that the nine major academies will compete for next.

But Lin Mo hasn't come out yet. Is he planning to live in the secret realm?
……

……

The fourth day of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Test.

On this day, the frequency of blue light flashing above the Dengxiantai became noticeably more frequent, and there were even one or two purple lights mixed in.

Immortal Master Meng, Immortal Master Feng, and the immortal masters in the surrounding pavilions, clearly no longer looked as calm as usual, and they began to make more small movements behind the scenes.

Especially Immortal Master Meng, who kept making hand gestures. Should he be transmitting a message to some immortal candidate?

No! There should be more than one.

What a fickle man, he just recruited Ye Chen from our class. But think about it, there are more than ten precious foundation-building Taoist books today, right?

I wonder what level the purple foundation-building method corresponds to?
In addition, what’s going on with this kid Lin Mo? According to what the immortal said, he should have appeared yesterday. Why didn’t he come out today? This is weird!

However, when I mentioned this matter again today, it was obvious that Master Meng no longer wanted to pay attention to me.

Oh, forget it! Lin boy, you're on your own. Your teacher can only help you so far...

The fifth day of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Test.

There are a lot of blue treasures, and the purple ones are gradually increasing.

Sure enough, just as Master Meng had said before, the higher the immortal candidates’ scores become, the better the quality of the treasures they receive will be.

Among the candidates who took the Xian exam today, none of them scored below 650 points.

Ye Chen was originally ranked within the top 200, but now his ranking has been squeezed out of the top 400. The top student in our class now seems mediocre among this group of students.

Today, I got five or six purple treasures, with the highest bonus being 50 points, which is really surprising.

It’s a pity that the purple foundation-building method has not yet been revealed.

Today, Master Meng made hand gestures more frequently with a smile on his face, and it seemed that he had gained a lot.

In comparison, Feng Xianchang was much silent. He did make a few hand gestures, but each time lasted very short. Could it be that the conversation had broken down?

That makes sense...

Besides, where's Lin Mo? You're not really planning to live there, are you?
The sixth day of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Test.

What a shining day.

Almost every immortal candidate comes out with light. The worst is green light, there is a lot of blue light, and there seems to be quite a bit of purple light as well.

Finally, someone has found a purple-quality foundation-building method. It turns out that the foundation-building method that shines with purple light is of spiritual grade.

I heard that there are more advanced foundation-building methods above that, which are rare even in the nine major Taoist academies and can be found on one’s fingers only. Only those with great luck can obtain them.

However, it is said that the last time it appeared was more than 20 years ago. I don’t know if I will have the opportunity to see this legendary foundation-building method with my own eyes this time.

All of the above little knowledge about the secret realms was popularized by Master Feng.

Because Master Meng is a bit busy today and can't take care of us.

Feng Xianchang seems to be much more relaxed. I don't know if the hospital has put him under performance pressure. I'm really worried about him...

It's another day without seeing Lin Mo. Not to mention Master Meng and Principal Zhu, I almost forgot about him.

Now, excluding those candidates who have been "greyed out", there are less than 50 left in the Immortal Examination Secret Realm.

Chu Wange, Feng Ji, Zhao Yungui...all of these outstanding performers in the initial round of tests are among them.

Lin Mo...what qualifications do you have to be ranked together with them?

Listen to your teacher and come out early before everyone notices you, otherwise you will be the one who will be embarrassed.

……

……

The 7th day of the Heavenly Dao Immortal Test is also the last day of the Immortal Test expected by everyone.

"Shh!"

A shining orange light lit up above the Ascension Platform.

Lao Li rubbed his eyes. Why was this golden light so dazzling?!

Before he could finish his thoughts, he saw Immortal Master Meng and Immortal Master Feng stand up from their seats at the same time, staring at the scene in the mirror flower and water moon, their pupils slightly contracting.

"Orange light, this is..."

“Immortal-grade foundation-building method!”

As soon as I heard Immortal Meng say this, I saw Wang Tou suddenly jump up from his seat after confirming the figure and laughed:
"Hahaha, it's Wan Ge! It's Chu Wan Ge!"
