Celestial Immortal

   Chapter 163 What is Tao

   A few days ago, Father Chen wanted Chu Chen to study for the imperial examinations.

  Chu Chen didn't even think about it, and refused.

   After finally getting out of the hardships of exam-oriented education and cultivating immortals happily, what exam should you take?

   However, things are impermanent.

  Chu Chen revisited the exam preparation time again.

   Holding the Taoist scriptures in hand and studying hard every day is called diligence.

  The Taoist Academy recruits disciples once a year, but there is no rigid regulation on the time when the disciples of the Taoist Academy are admitted to the academy.

   Some people graduate after a few months of study in a Taoist academy, while others study in a Taoist academy for several years.

   All depends on personal choice.

  It is not difficult to graduate from the Taoist Academy. In addition to daily assessments such as going into the mountains and practicing morning and evening homework, there are only two hard indicators.

   One is to pass the question and monument test, and the other is to pass the Taoism test.

   Asked about the monument and passed the assessment Chu Chen.

   He only needs to pass the Taoist examination of the Taoist Academy once, and he will meet the conditions for graduating from the Taoist Academy.

   The assessment of the Taoist Academy is not too difficult. The monks who can enter the Taoist Academy are all outstanding. As long as they have the right mind and work hard, most of them can successfully graduate from the Taoist Academy in a few months.

   The reason why some Daoist disciples study in the Daoyuan for one or two years actually involves an unspoken rule.

The purpose of    Taoist Academy is to train young Taoist monks.

  When graduating from Taoist academies, most of them will be promoted and appointed as appropriate.

   Some Daoyuan disciples have improved a lot in Daoism after being admitted to the hospital for a period of time. It is a logical thing to be promoted to an official or a half-rank. It is much easier than accumulating merit and deeds outside.

  Shortcuts are in front of you, who wouldn't be tempted.

   If the Daoist cultivation base fails to improve diligently, which Daoist disciple is willing to graduate, and a chance for promotion is wasted in vain.

  Chu Chen has no concerns in this regard.

   When he entered the Taoist Academy, he was a ninth-rank Daoxing practitioner, and now he has been promoted to the eighth-rank Daoxing.

   A few days ago, after swallowing and refining the great demon Yuan Qi, he practiced [King Kong Lingtong Treasure Sword Technique] and [Hunyuan Refinement Form] every day, and his cultivation level rose again.

  Er Yuan-Jun has a slight tendency to become a little bit, and his cultivation is extremely fast.

   There is no need to worry about the insufficient improvement of Taoism.

   For several days, Chu Chen was reviewing the Taoist scriptures every day.

   During the day, he listened to the lecturer's explanation at the Taoist academy, and at night, Master Xu Ping personally tutored him. He was so busy that Chu Chen felt like he was dreaming back to his previous life.

   Fortunately, before I knew it, half a month passed.

   In addition to reviewing the Taoist scriptures and learning the knowledge of Taoism, Chu Chen transformed "Er Yuanjun" into the Yuanling, and the mana in the body increased greatly.

   "Brother Chu, wait for me."

   At the entrance of the Taoist Academy, Chu Chen met Wang Ping and was a little surprised.

  Wang Ping's eighth-grade Taoist cultivation base, after refining the cocoon and pure Yuanqi, the eighth-grade Taoist practice is complete, and he has the opportunity to impact the seventh-grade Taoist.

   Under normal circumstances, it is definitely best to break through the seventh-grade Taoism and then graduate.

   As soon as he graduates, he will be a seventh-rank immortal officer, which can save a lot of effort and is an opportunity that many people dream of.

   "You're not going to try harder?"

  Chu Chen looked at Wang Ping up and down and asked with concern.

   Wang Ping is a good friend, Chu Chen thinks it is very good and worth interacting with.

   A few days ago, after he sent incense to Xiucai on the front foot, Wang Ping also found the Xiucai on the back foot, and sent the incense of the soul to the truth, and the rhetoric was similar to that of Chu Chen.

   When the scholar talked to Chu Chen afterwards, he was really helpless and happy.

  Wang Ping shook his head and sighed:

   "If you don't work hard, I can't see everyone Ningxiang at all on weekdays. What is near the water tower and the moon first, it's all **** nonsense!"

  Chu Chen was speechless, what was the matter, the bull's head was not the horse's mouth.

   "What Ningxiang everyone, I'm talking about Daoxing, don't you graduate after a wave of seventh-grade Daoxing?"

   "Oh~" Wang Ping coughed with emotion and said with a smile:

   "No, breaking through the seventh-rank Dao Xing pays attention to a chance and good fortune. Don't be in a hurry. Take a step back and say that promotion to immortal position is not important to me."

  Chu Chen understood Wang Ping's words.

   For ordinary monks, the promotion of immortality is not easy, the opportunity is rare, and it needs to kill countless comrades to win.

  Wang Ping came from an extraordinary family, and he was born in a famous family.

   As long as the Taoist cultivation level is improved, where he wants to go to work, whatever position he takes, is like drinking water, it is not worth mentioning.

   For Wang Ping, the most important thing is whether he has the ability to sit firmly in his position.

   It has to be said that the world is inherently unfair.

  Some people are born with something that many people cannot catch up with in their entire lives.

   "Okay! Let's take the test together, and maybe we can enter the Ghost and Spirit Division to work together."

  Chu Chen smiled and said to Wang Ping.

   "Brother Chu, that's what I thought, let's go!"

   The Daoyuan Taoist examination is different from the academy examination. It is not written on paper, but is taught by the Taoist academy to test the school face-to-face, with one question and one answer.

   is similar to the assessment that Chu Chen had when he entered the Taoist Academy.

  The only difference is that the difficulty is higher.

   On the first day of the Taoist examination of the Taoist Academy, many disciples of the Taoist Academy signed up, more than a hundred people.

  Chu Chen and Wang Ping are 68 and 70 respectively.

  The two waited until the afternoon, and finally it was their turn to assess.

   Enter a clean room.

  Chu Chen was taken aback by the battle in front of him.

   There are more than ten people including Dean Cang Qingzi, teachers, and lecturers.

   In addition, Dean Cang Qingzi also invited two deputy governors of the Department of Ghosts and Gods to watch the ceremony.

   One of the county deputy governors was the Daoist Master Bo Yunlei.

   Another deputy governor of the county, Chu Chen, heard from the master and uncle, Han Chen and the deputy governor of Han.

   So many great people gathered together to assess you, and there are scrutiny eyes everywhere.

  If you have a poor mental quality, I am afraid that this will show your cowardice.

   "I have seen you seniors!"

  Chu Chen can be considered to have seen the world. He has good qi cultivation skills. He can hold his breath and bow to everyone.

   "Don't be too polite."

   Dean Cang Qingzi smiled and waved his hand, saying:

   "Chu Chen, are you ready?"

  Chu Chen took a deep breath and said respectfully: "Please ask the dean to ask the question."

   Cang Qingzi nodded slightly, waved his hand lightly, and a cloud-like hand dragged the lottery in front of the table and presented it in front of Chu Chen.

  The lottery tube seems to be unremarkable, but in fact there is a universe inside, which can isolate the detection of consciousness.

  Chu Chen immediately understood, and he didn't dare to show off his supernatural powers in public, so he honestly stretched out his hand to draw lots.

   Feel free to draw.

   Taking a closer look, he took out a bamboo stick marked "One".

   Seeing this scene, Daoist doctors, teachers, and immortal officials all showed smiles on their faces.

  Chu Chen looked at Taoist Master Bo Yunlei.

   Taoist Yunlei smiled bitterly.

  Chu Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he vaguely understood that the "No. 1" lottery was not a good lottery.

  It's all my fault for the kid, who said I had good luck today before going out.

   Sure enough, the "good news" came, and a bad lot was drawn immediately.

   is so **** effective.

  Cang Qingzi smiled, took back the lottery box and the number one lottery, straightened his color, looked at Chu Chen, and asked:

   "Chu Chen, why is the No. 1 lottery title?"
