This is a cultivation game, but its operation is terrible.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. In ten days, the seven classes of senior high school students would cost over a thousand spirit stones, and raising them to the college entrance examination would require tens of thousands of spirit stones.

This term ends and there's always another one; no one can afford to support that.

This is a school. We've already done more than enough by giving you a final push after nine years of compulsory education. You're all good students, and no one would be greedy.

Chapter 12 Immersive Story Experience

"but."

Just as the students were feeling disappointed, the homeroom teacher changed the subject and said, "The school can't support the entire senior class for a year, but it can support one class for a year."

"The school has decided to select 30 outstanding students from the seven senior classes to form a special class for intensive training."

"These ten days are the time the school will take to assess your aptitude and attitude towards cultivation."

"Ten days later, the top thirty students with the highest cultivation levels in the entire senior class will be gathered in the Immortal Examination Class, where the school will spend a lot of resources to train them for a year."

"Students who didn't make it into the Immortal Examination Class shouldn't give up. The Immortal Examination Class will be ranked every month. If someone's cultivation level is higher than the last person in the Immortal Examination Class, they can take the place of the last person."

Two years ago, the third district set a good example, and the school took action on the second day after the fourth district opened.

Ten-day high recommendation!

The top thirty will enter the Immortal Examination Class!

Abundant resources!

The whole class was immediately taken aback. Those with better aptitude were smug, while those with poorer aptitude turned pale.

They acknowledged the academic geniuses before, and now they've created a new one: the immortal genius.

unfair!

But there was nothing they could do.

In an era where social resources are nearly overflowing, educational resources cannot be distributed equally.

Moreover, in this era of extreme scarcity of cultivation resources, it is even more impossible to achieve complete fairness.

They are all beneficiaries of nine years of compulsory education and modern youths who have been impacted by the information explosion. They may not be able to fully accept it, but they at least understand it.

Both servers open at the same time, starting from the same point. In ten days, we'll see who can run faster.

The principle is that if you take one step fast, you'll always be fast.

I want to cultivate!

I want to live at school and mooch off spirit stones!

I want to get into the Immortal Exam Class!

The whole class was filled with high morale. Everyone was using the same Na Yuan Technique, and everyone was absorbing spirit stones. Who was worse than whom?

The only difference is the initial aptitude. In the early stages of Qi Refining, the impact of aptitude on cultivation speed is almost negligible.

If everything is the same, then what is the competition?

What we're competing on is something different!

In this class, Li Dongze is special because his family is rich, which makes him different.

Of course, there are even more special ones.

"I will definitely have a place in the Immortal Examination Class!"

Jiang Liu was very confident. He was now at the fifth level of Qi Refining and possessed a top-grade water spiritual root. No dog would believe he couldn't get into the Immortal Examination Class.

The school's educational resources are the only resources he can currently obtain for free, and he must fight for them!

The class teacher's words and the formation of the Immortal Examination Class reignited the students' enthusiasm for cultivating immortality. Their restless nature was instantly suppressed, and the entire class fell silent as everyone practiced the Absorption Technique.

But he wasn't fully focused.

It was already the second day of cultivation. All the students had mastered the technique of multitasking, simultaneously circulating the Absorption Technique and entering the Immortal Cultivation Era, continuing the work they had started since waking up in the morning.

Endless replay of the story!

The launch event, which required perfect foundation building, turned the previously uneventful cultivation era into a frenzy.

Investing in Foundation Stones can help you achieve a perfect foundation, and the only ways to obtain Foundation Stones are through gift packs and story trials.

The gift pack is unaffordable for 99% of people, and only the super-rich can obtain perfect foundation building through it.

Poor players who can't afford to spend money on in-game purchases have no choice but to grind.

The event lasts for a month, totaling over 700 hours. As long as you immerse yourself in the storyline training every moment, you're bound to achieve a perfect Foundation Establishment!

Pay-to-win can change your fate, and so can hardcore gamers!

Although Jiang Liu planned to obtain the perfect Foundation Establishment through the gift pack, it did not mean that he would not go through the storyline training.

He wants to swipe too!

Not for laying the foundation, but for actual combat!

After balancing the Three Revolutions Profound Technique, Jiang Liu turned around and entered the Immortal Cultivation Era, opened the story training, and clicked on levels 1-7.

In levels 1-6, although the protagonist killed the senior brother of Lingyun Sect, the city lord's daughter also died, which angered him so much that he quit the game.

He's recovered now and is making a comeback, heading straight for levels 1-7!

Open level 1-7, and the story continues from the previous one. Before starting, a prompt appears on the level interface.

[VIP1 player, you have unlocked the 'Immersive Experience' feature. Do you wish to activate it?]

【Yes】

The moment he agreed, Jiang Liu felt his brain sink, his head spin, his vision go black, and the world seem to shift.

When he opened his eyes again, he was shocked to find himself in the city lord's mansion in the story!

"Was it truly immersive?"

Jiang Liu's face was full of surprise, and he couldn't help but look down at himself. The original paper man model was replaced by himself.

Dressed in simple clothes and cloth shoes, holding the Rising Sun Sword, with a jade pendant hanging at his waist, a spirit pendant around his neck, and the Cloud Wings on his back...

He is the protagonist himself!

Jiang Liu was a little incredulous and subconsciously pinched himself, but felt no pain.

Hmm, is this a dream?

It's not a dream, it's virtual, it's definitely not reality.

It took Jiang Liu a few seconds to accept that he had entered the plot. He raised his eyes and looked at the entire main hall of the city lord's mansion.

Inside the main hall, there was a middle-aged city lord, an old man with a white beard, and on the ground lay the city lord's daughter, the groom, and a senior brother from the Lingyun Sect.

They are all NPCs, and they are currently in a static state.

In the lower right corner of his field of vision, there are three icons: [Start Story], [2x Speed], and [Skip].

It was these three icons that made him lose focus.

[Start the story]

"How dare you!"

A deafening roar of anger erupted from the NPC, an old man with a white beard named Elder of the Outer Sect of Lingyun Sect. He glared at Jiang Liu and roared, "You ignorant brat, you country bumpkin, how dare you kill a disciple of my Lingyun Sect! I will annihilate you..."

【jump over】

"Let me teach you a lesson..."

【jump over】

After skipping two lines in a row, Jiang Liu was still waiting for the other person to recite their lines when he saw the outer elder of Lingyun Sect fly towards him with a roc spreading its wings, and suddenly a silver sword appeared in his hand, which cleaved straight at his brain.

Holy crap, the plot ended after just two sentences?!

Jiang Liu was shocked. The cultivator's aura, the sharpness of the sword, and the undisguised killing intent rushed towards him, making it hard for him to breathe and sending chills down his spine.

He's just a modern student; when has he ever actually fought someone to the death with real weapons?

This is fake. This is fake...

Practice in real combat...

Jiang Liu tried to calm himself down and hurriedly raised the Chaoyang Sword to block.

duang!

A crisp metallic clang followed, and Jiang Liu was immediately struck as if by a heavy blow. He lost his balance and staggered backward, his hands numb from the impact of the two swords clashing.

next second.

Before he could regain his footing, a white sword light flashed from afar, reflected in his bewildered eyes, getting closer and closer.

Battle lost

[Young hero, please try again]

Jiang Liu: "......"

I opened it, and I got instantly killed!

Jiang Liu was kicked out of the 'Immersive Experience' feature. He stared blankly at the results screen for a few seconds before scratching his head and saying, "So the cultivation world isn't turn-based!"

Chapter 13 I Only Need One Victory

After being killed for the first time, Jiang Liu realized he had underestimated the NPCs.

The incoming sword energy blinded him and threw him into a panic, giving him no chance to react.

Without health or mana, a direct hit to a vital point after breaking through defense will kill you.

He rated his first real-world experience as zero, and looking back, he realized he made a mistake right from the very first step.

Why block when NPCs attack? Why not just dodge and then counterattack?

Jiang Liu silently simulated in his mind how he should defend himself and how he should counterattack.

A few minutes later.
