Sea Cultivation: Giant Ships and Heavy Artillery Knock on the Door to All Races

Chapter 254 Optimization and Improvement, Wuwei Palace Registered Disciple
This person's name is Shu Yuheng, and he comes from the Shu family of Shubai Island, a large Jindan force in the Southern Region.

He was not ostentatious before and seldom interacted with others, but there was still a group of people gathered around him. He should be the first one in the Shu family to build a foundation, and the foundation he displayed was still significantly greater than that of Chu Junhao.

Unlike Lin Qianfan who gave up climbing and started practicing after reaching the 8001st step, he even continued climbing after a short rest until he had to stop at the 8200th step.

"Is this impossible? What a pity!"

Shu Yuheng's face did not show any joy of being the first in the test, but rather calmness.

His situation is different from Lin Qianfan's. He has reached the peak of the ninth level of foundation building and is destined to have no room for growth. However, Lin Qianfan obviously still has a lot of room for improvement. Perhaps the next time Lin Qianfan challenges the Shuofeng level, he will be able to reach the ninth level.

Don't say that the cost of starting the trial is high.
It would definitely be costly for useless people, and they might not cooperate even if they were paid. But if Lin Qianfan performed well enough, he believed that Wuwei Palace would have no problem providing Lin Qianfan with it free of charge once.

Shu Yuheng then sat down cross-legged and began to practice with peace of mind. The other people watching the ceremony finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although everyone rationally recognized Lin Qianfan's potential, Shu Yuheng's performance was too intuitive. Every step he took after reaching the 8001st step was trampling on the confidence of others.
It even made many people who were relatively satisfied with their test results become less confident, but fortunately he stopped.

"Whoo~"

Three hours later,
Lin Qianfan exhaled a large amount of black turbid air. The black turbid air had complex composition and abundant power, and could even distort vision.

These are the tiny impurities and garbage sediments that Lin Qianfan could not find in the three dimensions of his spirit, energy and soul on a normal day. This time, with the help of a strong external force, he finally found them out and completely replaced them.

"Eight thousand three hundred for the first time? There are always people better than you!"

Lin Qianfan was convinced when he saw this. Three hundred steps difference is three hundred steps difference. This is the first time for everyone to come here for trial. Second is second. Anyway, Chu Junhao has completely lost his energy and there is nothing to be afraid of.

Looking down again, most people had already left Shuofeng Stage. Some were eliminated and flew out, while others had cultivated to the limit and their bodies could not bear it, so they went down on their own initiative.

When it comes to sitting down to practice, the higher the level of cultivation, the more cost-effective it is. Lin Qianfan is only at the fourth level of foundation building, and the time required for him to sort out the three dimensions of essence, energy and spirit is much shorter than that of others.

After completing his training, Lin Qianfan did not go any further. It was not because the rules did not allow it, but because he could not do it. Because his body was now in an empty state, everything that had been recovered would be immediately worn out. The consumption was greater than the recovery, so he should go down, otherwise he would hurt his body.

The way down was very easy, with stairs coming to greet Lin Qianfan step by step. Compared to the difficulty of coming, the return journey was particularly comfortable, and all the tense parts of the body were relaxed.

At the same time, the spiritual energy in the air rushed into Lin Qianfan's body like a god. In addition, the power of qi, blood and soul was also constantly growing and enriching until his condition returned to its peak.

Lin Qianfan looked inward at himself,
The liquid spiritual power in the Dantian Spirit Lake is extremely active, pure and transparent. The reaction speed and maximum value of their calls have been improved, and the scale of the Dantian Spirit Lake has also been significantly increased. The total amount of the Dantian Spirit Lake has been increased while the cultivation level remains unchanged, which is amazing!
In addition, the three balls of saturated heavenly rain and dew that had originally accumulated at the bottom of the lake had shrunk significantly. They were not consumed for no reason, but were completely absorbed by Lin Qianfan and became a controllable part.

The Qi and blood in the body's acupoints are surging, full of vitality and vigor, and are obviously cleaner than before. It is obvious that the effect of tempering the Qi and blood is very significant.

It’s not that Lin Qianfan’s qi and blood power were weak before, but that he lacked sufficient application. Most of it was cultivated in the training room. Without actual combat in this area, it was inevitable that it was a bit stiff and rigid.

The situation in the sea of consciousness is the same as that in the dantian. While the realm remains unchanged, the total amount has been expanded and completely purified, resulting in overall optimization.

Wow~

Xiao Xinglan turned into a fish and swam freely in the sea of consciousness.

She felt very uncomfortable when the sea water dried up before, but now the abundant sea water gives her a better experience. Simply put, the water quality has improved a bit and her living environment has improved.

“It feels completely different from before!

The purity of the three dimensions has been improved, the total amount has been expanded, and even the control ability has been improved, and the strength has become more than 10%.
Is this the trial method used exclusively by Yuanying forces? It really works, and the results are immediate! "

The unprecedented strength and sense of fulfillment made my physical and mental state, which should have been exhausted, surprisingly good, and I didn’t even need to rest.

The only difference is that he is extremely hungry and has a great appetite. He wants to eat monster meat, but now is not the time to eat.

"Brother Lin, congratulations! It really is true that the real person never reveals his true identity!"

Someone took the initiative to greet Lin Qianfan. Although they were not very familiar with each other, it was enough to get to know each other. They completely forgot their previous feelings of contempt for Lin Qianfan.

Lin Qianfan responded politely and did not act arrogantly.

At this time, no one was climbing the Shuofeng Steps anymore. The remaining people were all practitioners with higher cultivation levels. They were in a lower position and had less pressure. It would just take longer to sort out all the steps, and the ranking results would not change.

Lin Qianfan restored the overall assessment situation based on the content of the conversations with others and the positions of the remaining people.

The main body of this assessment is still the group of wandering scholars. The thirty or so disciples of Wuwei Hall are basically the first time here to build the foundation. Their assessment results are not outstanding, but they will have the opportunity to come again in the future, so their results are not important.

Among the more than one hundred scholars, only Lin Qianfan and Shu Yuheng made it to the final round, so there were only two people in the first echelon. The two of them were undisputedly recognized by the others, in a gap-like manner.

The next round was from the 7001st to the 8000th step. In this round, there were a total of ten people standing, some of whom were not good-looking but gradually adapted and caught up from the back.

Obviously, they were not disturbed by external conditions at the beginning and did not insist on being in the first echelon. Instead, they maintained their personal best rhythm and finally came up.

These ten people are planned to be divided into the second echelon, but there are also differences between the first-tier and the lower tiers.
Five of the ten people stopped at the 7001st step and did not move forward, just like Lin Qianfan stopped at the 8001st step;
Three people, including Chu Junhao, chose to continue climbing until they had exhausted their last bit of strength, and finally stopped at different positions in the middle of the stairs. This was actually a bit harmful to their health, and it was not much better than the five people who did not move.
In addition, two people successfully reached the 8,000th step, which was only one step away from Lin Qianfan. However, after careful consideration, they both gave up the final push.
Human power is limited, and they may feel unwilling to give up, but sometimes it is a sign of true courage to retreat while the going is tough.

Except for a few people in the first and second echelons, the vast majority of others were trapped between the 6,001st and 7,000th levels, especially on the highest 7,000th level where the most people were.

This group of people is not that bad. After all, this is their first time here. They have no experience and no skills. Many of them still have room for growth. Their potential ceiling is not capped. If they go back for targeted supplements, they will see significant improvement. They can be called the third echelon.

In addition, there are a small number of people below the 6,001st level. Although there are many people in the lower levels, the number is not large. After all, the overall quality of this group of scholars is still good. Although the worst ones are trapped at around 3,000th level, the number is still very small.

As for who was worse off, it was hard to tell. The ones who were sent flying definitely possessed certain qualities, such as courage, self-confidence, and so on, but they also lacked certain things. It was difficult to tell who was better, but the ones sent flying also lost this opportunity to consolidate their foundation, making them the biggest losers.

But if they can quickly recognize themselves, find their position, and break their Dao heart and then rebuild it, the probability of forming a pill in the future will still be not small.

"Big Brother, what do you say?"

Although the trial has not yet ended, everyone's assessment results have come out, and even the details such as everyone's words, deeds, behavior, and character are all in the eyes of the Jindan cultivators.

"Everyone, tell me how many we should collect this time."

It stands to reason that an old-fashioned Yuanying force like Wuwei Palace generally only accepts registered disciples in the Jindan stage. This way they can earn a considerable amount of tuition fees and also use it to expand the prestige and influence of Wuwei Palace.

But the situation is different now, because the Thousand Star City has opened the ascending channel, which means that in the future there will definitely be people from grassroots backgrounds who will successfully form a Nascent Soul, so the Nascent Soul forces are all competing for people, hoping that the new Nascent Soul cultivators are close to them and have a bond in advance.

"I think the top twelve are all possible! It's not easy to achieve this on your first visit. They are no worse than the average level of my Wuwei Palace disciples. They all have a chance of reaching the Nascent Soul stage."

Being able to do this for someone from a Jindan faction is already quite good. As long as they are not blocked in the upper levels of the Thousand Star City and the fourth-order spirit veins can be lent to them for a breakthrough, they are no worse than the disciples of the Wuwei Palace.

"That's a bit too many! We still need to recruit from the winners of the Hemolysis Tower Trial. Too many is not good. I suggest eliminating half of them!"

"That's right, too many non-personally-initiated teachings will affect purity!"

"How do we eliminate them? Assessment scores or comprehensive scores?"

"Anything works!"

Afterwards, several Jindan senior officials who actually managed most of the affairs of Wuwei Palace made discussions and judgments.

They eliminated the last six people from the first and second echelons. The remaining six were those they thought had a high probability of producing top-grade golden elixirs, and they planned to accept them as registered disciples of Wuwei Hall in advance.

It's not that the others are without opportunities, they just missed this opportunity. If they can produce top-grade golden elixir, they will still be accepted by Wuwei Palace.

"Kick this guy out too, only five will do!"

The master pointed at Chu Junhao, who was ranked last among the six people, without explaining the reason.

The others looked at each other and without asking why, they simply crossed out his name, also thinking that he was not good enough.

Two hours later, when the last person who could not bear the pressure and could not continue to practice came down, the assessment officially ended.

Generally speaking, except for a few who were injured and their aura was weak, the aura of everyone else has improved to some extent. Even those who were trapped at the 3,000th level took the opportunity to consolidate their foundation.

There are even a very small number of two or three people who are close to a breakthrough, and they can go into seclusion and break through after going down today.

“I believe everyone already knows the results of the assessment, so I will not elaborate on them.

Don’t be proud of your good results. You still have a long way to go in your cultivation. Only by maintaining your performance can you be considered truly great.
Don't be discouraged if your grades are poor. You are all still young and a long way from reaching the Danjie level. You even have two hundred years left. You can calm down and polish your skills. You may be able to make a comeback in the future.

The opportunities that the Shuofeng Stage brings you are only partial and cannot support the entire path. You need to use this to find your current position and goals, and move forward courageously in the future..."

As someone who had climbed the 9,000th step, Xiao Yichen was fully qualified to lecture others, giving them a critical lecture in the manner of a teacher.

These people are basically the best in their own forces, but their mentality is very prone to problems. This time they have seen how high the sky is. If they adjust in time, they will become stronger when they return.

On the contrary, if his shattered Dao heart cannot be re-established and strengthened, or even sinks into depravity, it will be regarded as a great devastation for the Jindan forces he belongs to, and it will also be the merit of Wuwei Palace.

"Shu Yuheng, Lin Qianfan, Xu Zhihe, Jiang Nanyan, and Lin Shaoyi, the five of you will stay here. The rest of you may leave. Take time to digest and recuperate what you have seen and felt today. It will affect you for the rest of your lives!"

The five people whose names were called immediately understood what Xiao Yichen meant, because the Jindan cultivators on the high platform did not leave, and it was obvious that they wanted to meet the five of them.

Those whose names were not called had mixed feelings and different ideas. The few who knew that they were just one step away felt very sorry and could only leave with some reluctance.

Only Chu Junhao was struck by lightning after hearing the announcement. His face turned pale and his body was cold. He stood there at a loss.

In the previous assessment, he happened to be ranked sixth, and this time only five people were left, so it was obvious that he was eliminated.

"Is it... a coincidence...? Or is it intentional... targeting me? Is it just because... I'm a member of the Chu family...?"

Chu Junhao found it hard to accept this fact.

He was full of ambition when he first signed up. As a nobleman from a Nascent Soul faction, the resources he had been exposed to since childhood were beyond the comprehension of those from smaller families.

Everyone was competing on the same stage, and he was very confident that he would be the first. He believed that even if he was a member of the Chu family, as long as he got the first place, he would definitely be there unless Wuwei Palace did not accept registered disciples.

When the time comes, I will definitely receive special attention when I return to the Chu family, and thus receive further support from the family, and there is hope for me to achieve Nascent Soul.

But now the dream has been dashed, all expectations have been dashed. Wuwei Palace only accepted five people in this round, and the next round will probably have to wait until the Jindan stage.

"Golden elixir! Golden elixir! Top-grade golden elixir! There's still a chance!"
