Ling Duoqing, who spent the whole night creating cultivation techniques, looked tired. He couldn't help but yawn.
Ling Youshan, who was at the side, saw Ling Duoqing's situation and could not help but say, "Dad, don't be too tired, and don't worry too much. After I passed the Phoenix Academy examination, by virtue of my identity as a student of Phoenix Academy, while I was studying, there were also people who wanted me to help out with the other shops.
I'll work hard and earn money to support my family, and then you won't have to work so hard."You have to take care of your body. When I succeed in my cultivation, I will definitely let dad lead a better life and take good care of his younger brother and sister."
Hearing Ling Youshan's words, Ling Duoqing patted his head and sighed, "Shan, you don't need to worry about family matters. You'll be fine very soon. You seven siblings, just need to live a good life."
As he sighed in his heart, Duoqing started to operate his cultivation technique spontaneously. Strands of spiritual energy rushed into his body and helped him wash his weak body.
In the blink of an eye, Ling Duoqing's cultivation had already reached the first level of Qi-refining Stage.
"The power of emotions is so great. Why did I have to abandon emotions in my previous life?" Ling Duoqing sighed to himself, "Maybe I was too talented in my previous life and my training went smoothly. I was too busy practicing, so why would I care about other emotions?"
Hearing Ling Duoqing's words, Ling Youshan's eyes reddened, and he lowered his head, swearing, he will definitely pass the Phoenix Academy examination, and honor his father.
He was the leader of the family. As the first person to be adopted by Ling Duoqing, he had already started to become sensible.
Moreover, he saw Ling Duoqing's adoptive brothers and sisters, his family's disappearing valuables, and Ling Duoqing, who couldn't cultivate but insisted on helping the two siblings take care of their lives. He had long taken Ling Duoqing to be his father.
However, in this world, strength was everything. Even if Ling Duoqing was willing to give his all for them, his abilities were limited.
Thus, as a sensible man, he had to lighten the burden on his father.
The father and son duo chatted as they spent the morning before they finally arrived at the Phoenix Academy's entrance.
Today was the day of the Phoenix Academy's official examination to recruit students, so a lot of people had come to the Phoenix Academy.
From the variety of transportation at the Phoenix Academy entrance, one could see the situation of each examinee's family. Wealthy families would naturally be BMWs and travel in luxury, while families like Ling Family could only walk over early in the morning.
"Hey, Ling Youshan, you're finally not staying in the basic training class to participate in Phoenix Academy assessment anymore, right?" A head popped out of a carriage and asked while laughing, "The Phoenix Academy only requires five thousand gold coins a year. Can your poor dad afford it?"
Ling Youshan followed the voice and took a glance. He immediately retracted his gaze. He was only holding Ling Duoqing's hand and couldn't help but exert a lot more force.
Of course he knew how high the tuition fee was for Phoenix Academy. However, if he didn't have a good origin, how could he have become a genius? If he wasn't a genius, how could he repay Ling Duoqing, who raised him since he was young? Therefore, he had to take the Phoenix Academy examination, but he would think of a way to pay the tuition himself.
Ling Duoqing glanced at his eldest son, then turned around to look at the carriage and found a big "Mi" on it.
It turned out to be the carriage belonging to the Phoenix City of a large clan of Phoenix City.
Ling Duoqing glanced at the kid and said, "Whether I can afford the tuition is my problem, but you better shut up!" "Otherwise, I will ask your master about this and see how they discipline you."
When the driver heard Ling Duoqing's tone, he immediately glared at him in displeasure. However, the sound of a scolding voice came from the carriage, causing him to stop his other actions.
"Shut up, don't mock the poor!" A clear voice came from the carriage.
Ling Duoqing glanced at the carriage and didn't continue to talk. The little kid glanced at Ling Duoqing and did not say anything else, but his eyes were full of disapproval.
Then, everyone entered the Phoenix Academy.
The examination venue was at the Phoenix Academy Plaza. A group of people were silently waiting, waiting for the examination to begin.
At noon, the person who presided over the Phoenix Academy examination finally appeared.
It was a young man with a rather arrogant expression, about the same age as Ling Duoqing. The young man stood at the podium, looking proudly at the crowd waiting for the assessment.
The noisy crowd suddenly turned silent when they saw this situation.
After everyone quietened down, that person said indifferently: "I am Zhen Sishuang, the one who presided over this assessment, a teacher of Phoenix Academy. Now, everyone shut up and I'll explain the rules.
Have you seen the two pillars at my side? The test pillar on the left is specially used to test for spiritual roots. Depending on the quality of your spiritual roots, it will display a purple to green light. Purple was the best, cyan the worst. It didn't show any light to indicate that they didn't have spiritual roots, and they would be eliminated if they didn't have one.
The testing spirit pillar on the right is for testing your willpower. When your hands touch the testing spirit pillar, illusions will appear in your mind. The longer he persevered, the stronger his willpower became. If you can't make the testing spirit pillar emit light, it means that the will is very weak. This kind of person is not suitable for cultivation, and will be directly eliminated."
After Zhen Sishuang said that, he paused for a while and then said lightly: "Do you understand the rules? Then let's begin the exam. Those who have called out their name, come up to the stage to take the test! "First, Mi Yiran."
The crowd below burst into laughter, and the kid who ridiculed Ling Youshan from Mi Family's carriage just now walked out with a flushed face.
As he walked, he muttered to himself, "Dad, it's true. If you want to unify the business world, unify the continent. Why did you give me such a name?"
After which, Mi Yizong walked up to the platform and pressed his hand against the first pillar.
The pillar emitted a yellow light, Zhen Sishuang lightly said: "Medium-rank spiritual roots! "Next, the willpower test."
Mi Yiran pressed against the second pillar with some fear, only to discover that his face was filled with fear. In a moment, he had let go of his hand.
Then, the pillar began to emit a yellow light.
Zhen Sishuang lightly said, "Medium Will, not bad, recorded!"
Upon hearing Zhen Sishuang's words, a joyful smile emerged on Mi Yiquan's face.
After that, one by one, people were called up, and were basically all taken into the Phoenix Academy. There was only one young lady who had encountered an unknown illusion and was so frightened that she was unable to make the spirit pillar emit light. However, this little girl's spirit root was of the highest quality and had been broken down.
"Next, Huang Lingshan." Zhen Sishuang shouted.
A little girl walked up proudly, and without hesitation, she extended her hand and pressed it on the first testing pillar. The pillar immediately burst out a dazzling red light.
"Another Superior Grade Spiritual Root!" Zhen Sishuang could not help but shout out, looking at Huang Lingshan with expectation: "Test your willpower! Good, your willpower is also superior. Very good, free to enroll in the Phoenix Academy's superior class! "
Geniuses were given special privileges in any school.
The little girl Huang Lingshanao daintily nodded her head and stood behind the examiner.
"Next, Ling Youshan!" Wu Tie shouted with an expressionless face.
When Ling Youshan heard his name being called, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
Ling Duoqing comforted her, "Don't be afraid, you'll definitely pass the exam. You're stronger than them!"
Ling Youshan nodded heavily, took a deep breath and walked towards the stage.
He pressed his hand on the pillar, not reacting for a long time.
Just when he was still looking forward to it, Zhen Sishuang said in disdain, "Without spiritual roots, you can't cultivate! Hurry up and go, don't waste my time! "
Ling Youshan felt his head explode. He originally thought that he would definitely pass the Phoenix Academy examination, because in the Phoenix Academy training class, his physical fitness and physique was first place. However, he actually didn't have any spiritual roots?
If she could not enter the Phoenix Academy, if she could not cultivate, would her wish be fulfilled forever?
For a time, his heart was in turmoil as his eyes reddened.
He said unwillingly, "Teacher, is the spirit testing pillar broken? I can definitely cultivate it! "Or, can I take the next test first? I can guarantee that my willpower will be very good!"
Zhen Sishuang said coldly, "It's fine if I'm a waste, but to actually doubt the ability of the academy? Just based on this point, you don't need to take the exam anymore. Without spiritual roots, you are destined to be an ordinary person for your entire life. You are just like your father, a trash who doesn't know how to cultivate. Still not going down? I have to chase you down! "
Seeing that Ling Youshan was unwilling to step down, Zhen Sishuang waved his hand and a stream of spiritual energy swept Ling Youshan off the platform.
"Next!" Zhen Sishuang shouted.
