Chapter 51: Remarkable progress and passing the examination

In two months, Zhao Yu was satisfied with the cultivation progress of his disciples.

Not to mention the direct disciples, just the named disciples, there are several who work extremely hard. Often when other disciples have taken a rest, they are still practicing martial arts and rehearsing combat skills over and over again in the martial arts arena.

Even other people, when they should be cultivating, none of them pretended to be so. After all, most of these registered disciples have different identities, either special soldiers or agents. These people have a sense of crisis - when performing tasks, life or death is uncertain. Now there is an opportunity to make them stronger, and no one will take it lightly.

Their hard work and seriousness have affected a few registered disciples who are not soldiers or agents, and then even direct disciples who have no special status. Although this atmosphere does not seem to match Xianmen Xiaoyao, Zhao Yu agrees and lets it go. At the beginning of cultivation, you must work hard, otherwise you will not be as good as the threshold, and you will not see the immortal way.

It stands to reason that people who work hard should be appreciated.

But Zhao Yu discovered that one of the named disciples worked hard, but it was not a down-to-earth effort, but a desire for quick success. This person is extremely thirsty for power, and this desire has become somewhat blind and distorted, which is not a good thing.

Effort is a good thing, but one must also work hard in a down-to-earth manner and with a correct mentality. Blindness and distortion can only ruin his future.

This person is Bronski, the only government special soldier who fell to the last dozen or so steps in the test of being a direct disciple.

Seeing that tomorrow was the two-month deadline for registered disciples, it was already evening, and Zhao Yu slowly came to the martial arts field.

Bronski was practicing his boxing skills alone. Zhao Yu could see at a glance that the set of the broken jade boxing fist he chose, which was wide open and closed, strong and violent, had been practiced to the point where he could enter the palace.

The fists are whistling, whining and making sounds, they open and close widely, and they strike forcefully, yet they move smoothly and smoothly, which is very remarkable.

Among all the registered disciples, he is one of the few who has mastered his combat skills to the point of entering the palace in just two months.

Normally at this time, there should be two or three people practicing hard here with him, but tomorrow is the two-month deadline, and the other people went to rest early to recuperate for tomorrow's assessment. Only Bronski is still practicing.

Zhao Yu came to him quietly and said: "Stop first."

Bronski was startled for a moment, turned around and saw Zhao Yu, and bowed: "Master."

Zhao Yu nodded: "You are very good. Of the twenty-six named disciples, you are the hardest working one. You have achieved great results in your practice until now. Except for Barton and Frank, no one of them is your opponent."

When Bronski heard this, a smile of recognition appeared on his face.

But Zhao Yuhua's voice changed and she said: "You have practiced the Shattering Jade Fist in just two months to the point where you can enter the palace and enter the house. You can open monuments and crack rocks. You have also practiced the Thick Earth Kung Fu to the second level. You can move your hands with a force of two thousand kilograms." . To be honest, if my direct disciples were not rich in resources, I am afraid that some of them would not be as good as you. But..." Zhao Yu said this and shook his head: "My teacher can see that your desire for power has gone too far. Almost pathological!"

Bronski's happy expression suddenly froze: "Master, is it wrong to work hard?!"

"No, there is nothing wrong with working hard." Zhao Yu sighed: "It is precisely because you work hard enough that I want to talk to you."

"The key point of our cultivation is to keep a god's spirit calm, and you have to hold it within a certain degree. And you have passed. Effort is good, but pathological effort is a distortion of the mind. The mind cannot remain clear, and this will be your future path. The biggest obstacle!"

Zhao Yu stood with his hands behind his hands and walked slowly to the edge of the cliff. Bronski followed him with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

"To put it bluntly, you are being extreme." Zhao Yu said calmly: "My teacher recommends that you read more Taoist scriptures and refine your mind. Put down your martial arts and combat skills first. When your mind is clear, it is not too late to practice."

People like Bronski are actually more suitable to practice magic skills. However, for those who are too extreme, it is easy to become a demon by practicing demonic skills, but it is difficult to enter the Tao.

Even demonic monks first become possessed by demons, then break through them, and then enter Taoism.

If Bronski practices magic, he will definitely make rapid progress in the early stage, but after reaching a certain level, he will definitely encounter a huge bottleneck. If he can break through it, he will have a bright future. If he cannot, the inner demon will bite back, and the end can be imagined. Know.

"I have been observing you for a while." Zhao Yu turned his back to Bronski: "You are very jealous of your direct disciples. Why is this? It's because they have more resources than you and their skills are better than yours. ?"

Bronski was silent for a moment: "Yes, Master."

"You are quite honest." Zhao Yu nodded: "But you have to know that you took part in the test together and you failed. This is your own fault."

"But where are Tony Stark, Peter Parker, Harry Osborn and Raven?!" He suddenly shouted excitedly: "They did not participate in the test with us! Although they made up for it later, But neither Harry nor Tony passed once! Why did you give them a chance and not me?! Is it because Tony and Harry are rich?! Are they Monopoly?!"

Zhao Yu laughed. He turned to look at Bronski, shook his head and sighed: "The cultivation of immortality is about fate. The four of them were accepted as disciples by chance before they were officially accepted as masters. People are different from each other. , you can’t compare yourself to them, you are you and they are them.”

At this point, he paused: "My teacher does not look down on you. If you can persevere while firming up your mind and maintaining clarity, it is not impossible that you will have the opportunity to become a direct disciple. My teacher never said that a named disciple will always be Named disciple. Besides... accepting a disciple as a master has its own reasons for being a master, how can you allow you to doubt it?!"

He flicked his sleeves and said, "Just take care of yourself."

As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared.

Bronski watched Zhao Yu disappear and clenched his fists bitterly.

The next day, the registered disciples took the two-month assessment, and all of them finally passed.

These named disciples, regardless of their perseverance and qualifications, are better than ordinary people. With the help of elixirs, they have generally practiced their chosen exercises to the second level in two months. Those with great potential, such as Blonsky, Barton and others, are showing off their skills. There is a ton of huge strength, a small potential, and a thousand pounds.

It can be said that they are completely different now than they were two months ago.

If you really compare, you can crush yourself two months ago with just a few clicks of your fingers. Of course, firearms are excluded. In their current state, being hit by a thermal weapon would still have serious consequences, there was no doubt about it.

Zhao Yu stood at the head with his hands behind his back, with a look of relief on his face. He glanced at the twenty-six registered disciples and said with a smile: "None of you have let me down. Everyone has passed the examination. According to the regulations at the beginning of entry, You can leave the cave now."

"But before I leave, I would like to give you a few words of advice."

He showed a stern look on his face: "You must keep in mind the sect's teachings and rules. This is one. Second, I hope that when I see you next time, I can see that you have found the place of persistence in your heart. Your cultivation is For what! A grudge? To act chivalrously? To protect? To kill? This is about your future."

"Finally, I would like to give you a word of advice from my teacher. When practicing, you must maintain a normal mind." His eyes deliberately swept over Bronski: "At any time, you must keep your mind from being polluted, and remember it! Remember to read more Taoist scriptures , practice hard.”

"Okay, let's stop here." Zhao Yu waved his hand: "From today on, you can leave the sect. If you don't want to leave, I won't force you as a teacher. At the same time, you can come back at any time, as long as you don't commit any lawlessness. If you redeem your mistakes, the sect’s door will always be open.”

The disciples all bowed to Zhao Yu, and except for a few two or three, the others left the sect one after another.

Most of these registered disciples came from SHIELD and the government. Their original purpose of training here was to serve the government and SHIELD, so they all left.

The remaining two or three people were all people from the private sector. They did not serve anyone and decided to practice well in the sect.

After sending away the registered disciples, the Taiyi Cave became much quieter.

Among the eight direct disciples, except for Peter and Ruiwen who were tasked to guard the farm and the gate of the sect, the other six were all beside Zhao Yu.

The gatekeeping task is the longest-term task of the sect.

Since Zhao Yu officially opened the mountain to accept disciples, many people have come to visit or become disciples one after another. Ordinary visitors will be turned away, while apprentices must wait until the same time next year.

The sect has sect rules. After the apprenticeship time, even Xavier School or other mutants or superheroes must wait until the next time.

It is impossible to just come in and start the test process. The number of disciples in the Taiyi Sect is too cheap.

Therefore, the farm must be watched by someone at all times. There is this sect mission.

As for the gate of the sect that needs to be guarded, it is also necessary. To get in and out of the gate, it takes two and a half tons of force to push the gate open. Many registered disciples do not yet have this ability. When they enter or leave the sect, someone must open the door for them.

Then there is this sect mission.

For these two tasks, the tasks of guarding the farm and receiving visitors, the eight direct disciples took turns. As for the gatekeeping task of the sect, only Peter and Logan were capable of the task at first. Ten days after accepting the disciples, Harry joined. Now, every one of them has this ability, even Tony.

Now among the eight direct disciples, Peter is far ahead. He has practiced Chunyang Body Refining Fist to the seventh level and is about to break through to the eighth level. It is easy to move his hands and feet and have tens of thousands of kilograms of strength.

Among them, the one with the highest level of cultivation is Harry. He started only later than Tony and Peter. Now, Chunyang Body Refining Fist has reached the fifth level! There are more than ten thousand divine powers in one body!

Ranked third is actually Cindy, the seventh junior sister!

He has reached the fourth level of Pure Yang Boxing and is about to break through to the fifth level!

It’s really rare!

You must know that among the senior brothers and sisters who started at the same time, such as Raven, Logan, Natasha and Matt, their starting conditions were higher than hers, but they were surpassed by her, which shows that their qualifications and understanding are extraordinary.

The remaining ones are all at the third level of boxing, with slightly different levels. The highest one is undoubtedly Luo Gen, only below Cindy. The worst was Tony, who had just broken through the third level.

But even Tony's physical strength is six thousand pounds!

It can be said that the qualifications and potential of his direct disciples have all met Zhao Yu's requirements.

"Among these named disciples, there are actually a few who have qualifications and potential that are no worse than some of you."

Zhao Yu said to the six disciples around him: "For example, Bronsky, Barton and Frank. If their cultivation techniques were not inferior to yours, and if they had the same supply of resources, their current state would definitely be worse than yours. Especially Tony! "

Hearing this, Tony quickly raised his hands in surrender: "Master, I still need to draw the talisman! I have less time to practice than them, of course..."

"Of course what?!" Zhao Yu glanced at him: "That's not a reason! Ask your junior brothers and sisters, who is the least diligent?"

Tony smiled and stopped talking.

"Forget it, everyone has their own fate." Zhao Yu shook his head: "You are talented in talismans, so it is understandable that you practice slower. But as a teacher, I still say, practice hard!"

"I know!" Tony was a little impatient.

Zhao Yu tried to slap him, but Tony quickly dodged and all the disciples laughed.
