Chapter 35
Slowly, a more terrifying idea appeared in the minds of the three people.
If Su Chen spent a lot of time playing games, he could still have achieved such terrifying swordsmanship and body movement skills today.
If he saves the time he spends playing games, wouldn't it be...
Damn it, it's so damned! It turns out that hard work is worthless in the face of talent!
We practice so hard, but in the end, we are not as good as others who practice casually after playing games.
They can't say that Su Chen is gifted, but normal practice has little effect, and he can only become stronger quickly by playing games, right?
How could there be such an outrageous thing in this world?
The reason he is so strong must be because of his extraordinary understanding.
Playing games... has limited his talent!
At this moment, in the eyes of the teachers and students of No. 1 High School, Su Chen has completely become a rebellious boy with average spiritual talent, extraordinary comprehension, and a heavy obsession with games.
With such talent, why doesn't he practice hard to become famous in the world of immortal cultivation in the future but stay here playing games? It's a waste of talent; it's a waste of talent!
Why does such a person who does not work properly have such a supernatural enlightenment... Damn it!
Inside the secret realm of Wuquan Mountain.
[Name: Su Chen (Taichu Divine Sect's servant disciple)]
[Qualifications: High-grade mixed spiritual roots (gold, wood, water, fire, earth)]
[Cultivation: third level of Qi gathering stage (3700/20000)]
[Current experience points: 2500]
"I originally wanted to save the experience points to improve my alchemy skills, but why didn't anyone tell me in advance that the most important thing in alchemy is... luck?"
Su Chen looked at the alchemy furnace on his phone, which had failed again and was emitting billowing black smoke.
He admitted that he was a little defensive.
Fifty-one times. He has tried to refine the elixir 51 times.
Surprisingly, he still couldn't successfully refine the 'Qi Gathering Pill'.
If this continues, the spirit stones he earned from completing tasks will soon be used up!
Su Chen looked at the only 200 low-grade spirit stones left in his game, knowing that he had at most four more chances to refine pills.
After spending all the spirit stones, he would have no choice but to go to Qingxuan Forest to chop trees and continue to earn spirit stones.
"Forget it. I've never had good luck since I was a child. This kind of luck-based thing is not suitable for me."
"Go ask Xiao Ye to lend some luck to her. She has the physique of a lucky fish who can pick up money whenever she goes out."
"With her by my side, I might be able to succeed in one try."
"Right now, I should improve my cultivation first. I can't wait any longer."
Cultivation of Immortality, add points!
[Name: Su Chen (Taichu Divine Sect Servant Disciple)]
[Qualifications: High-grade mixed spiritual roots (gold, wood, water, fire, earth)]
[Cultivation: fourth level of Qi gathering stage (4700/20000)]
[Current experience points: 1500]
"If I were originally a low-grade spiritual root, then when my spiritual power value reaches 10,000 points, it will be the limit of the Qi gathering stage, and I can't continue to improve."
"But now the high-grade spiritual root has raised my spiritual power limit to 20,000 points."
"In other words, low-grade spiritual roots can only be cultivated to the tenth level of the Qi gathering stage, but I can cultivate to the twentieth level of the Qi gathering stage."
"But I have never heard of any realm beyond the tenth level of the Qi gathering stage before. I think most people regard the realm beyond the tenth level as a realm beyond the norm."
"No wonder I always hear about some geniuses who have reached the peak of the Qi gathering stage early but have never been in a hurry to break through. It turns out that they have only reached what ordinary people think is the peak, but have not reached their peak."
"The gap between ordinary people and geniuses is indeed huge, visible to the naked eye."
"But now I am... not also an absolute genius, am I?"
"Let's put the alchemy thing aside for now. Let the game character concentrate on cultivation in the next few days."
"According to my current training speed of about 50 experience points per game day, I can increase my cultivation by 1,000 points in 20 game days."
"And this... is just two days in reality."
"Even if I don't use all my experience to improve my cultivation, this speed is still amazing."
"It seems that there is no need to rush to improve my cultivation. I should concentrate on seeing if there is any way to increase the probability of building a foundation."
"After all, it would be shameful if I couldn't even complete the Heavenly Dao Foundation Building."
Wuquan Mountain Secret Realm, the ninth day, sunny.
As the first phase of the assessment draws to a close, several students have gathered at the foot of the mountain in the center of Wuquan Mountain.
These students are divided into several teams and some lone wolves.
The number of people in a team varies, with some having more than a dozen and others having only two or three.
The number of people is inversely proportional to the average strength within the team.
The higher the average strength of a team, the fewer people it has.
The lower the average strength of a team, the more people it has.
As for those who do not want to form a team, they are all students of the Heaven Dao class without exception.
They have absolute confidence in their abilities and do not need help from others.
And because the time for the second phase of assessment to start has not yet arrived.
Therefore, the small peak in the center of Wuquan Mountain is not open and is covered by a huge mountain barrier.
The candidates could only gather outside the barrier at the foot of the mountain and wait for the second stage to begin.
After nine days, there are only 98 students left out of the 305 candidates in the senior year of Jiangnan No. 1 High School.
Nearly two-thirds were eliminated.
Among these eliminated students, there was even one student from the Heaven Dao Class.
It's not that the student's cultivation is not good enough; it's just that they have been protected too well since childhood.
After coming to the Wuquan Mountain Secret Realm, they were unable to fully display their strength due to various reasons and were unfortunately eliminated.
Similar situations were not isolated cases among the more than 200 students who were eliminated.
The real world of immortal cultivation is countless times more cruel than what students imagine...
