I have a talent tree

Chapter 24: Practice more food
  dong dong!

In the early morning, a melodious bell rang, which seemed to indicate that everything was awakening.

"The deadline for the assessment is already halfway over, but I don't have the courage to complete the task."

Many people gathered in the square, and some people sighed.

"Yes, a few days ago, another group of people were eliminated and went home. I heard that many of them are geniuses of Qingding Daoji."

"All the Qingding disciples have been eliminated. It's so cruel to go to Qingshan. Don't we need these geniuses?"

"What's a pity? Shangqingshan is the number one immortal sect in the South. What they don't lack most is genius!"

"Look, the gold list has been updated!"

At this time, a person pointed at the golden list and spoke quickly.

Immediately, it attracted everyone's attention.

"It's past half time, and some people should be on the list one after another." Many people are looking forward to it.

This gold list has been monopolized by Li Huaian for more than two months. Looking down on everyone, it is time for a change.

Unsurprisingly.

Under Li Huaian, golden names emerged one after another.

"Ling Qinghe, double armor!" Looking at the second person on the gold list, many people exclaimed.

This woman also has a high reputation in the stronghold, and is the most outstanding disciple of this generation's alchemy path.

Then, genius names that everyone had heard of appeared.

"Xu Shan?" When the seventeenth one was chosen, many people showed strange expressions.

"I'm afraid this is the only disciple of Qingding Daoji among these people." Someone said.

In the last assessment, Xu Shan got a lot of limelight, so many people paid close attention to him and knew his true talent.

"Indeed, this person is very smart. He got a few full armors in the last assessment. Now he is doing something amazing. Even if he cannot become the overlord of one party in the future, he will definitely achieve great things."

A Purple Cauldron genius said sincerely that he was more talented than him, but he had not yet completed a task.

"Speaking of which, I heard that this person had been alienated by his close companions before, and was disliked just because he broke through to the third level a few days late." Someone couldn't help laughing when they thought of this. .

"Short-sighted people, this kind of people think they have some talent, and they look down on this and that, but in fact they have accomplished nothing. I seem to have heard of the two people you mentioned. They are called Ping or Chu. Why are they now? I haven’t seen them on the list yet.”

The Ziding genius sneered and said disdainfully.

"Indeed, what fellow Taoist said is reasonable. We haven't even entered Shangqing Mountain yet, so who is better than the other? The outcome is still undecided. They get frustrated and think that this one is falling behind and that one is falling behind. In the end, they are not the ones falling behind."

A group of people hurriedly agreed.

Not far away, the two disciples who were listening to their exchange attentively turned green after hearing these words, and immediately fled the scene in despair, for fear of being recognized.

"Having said that, it may be difficult for Bai Jing to achieve his previous feats. After all, the talent gap is there." Someone said casually, looking at the names on the gold list.

Bai Jing had made a name for himself before, so his identity information was naturally revealed.

Well, it was passed down by two people.

"Indeed, this round of assessment is extremely difficult and cannot be won by trickery. I am afraid that no one can shake Li Huaian's status!"

The Ziding genius looked at the name at the top of the gold list and sighed.

the other side.

In front of a thatched cottage in District 8.

Bai Jing sat cross-legged, the Small Phaseless Skill was running in his body, and wisps of morning glow and spiritual tides continued to gather here.

Beside him, there were two brand-new classics.

After a month of frantically completing tasks, I finally earned enough training resources and exchanged them for the secret skills and formations I selected previously.

Now, I can finally practice with peace of mind and prepare for subsequent tasks.

After a moment, he opened his eyes.

"Mountain and River Arrows!" Bai Jing picked up the rubbings of Mountain and River Arrows and began to read through them.

Not long after, as he read through the main chapter, he already had some enlightenment in his mind.

hum!
  Immediately afterwards, a bubble of colored light appeared in the scorched earth in his mind. boom!
  As soon as Bai Jing's thought came to his mind, the bubble clicked directly on the fourth branch.

As the bubbles turned into foam and dispersed, words began to appear on the branches.

Success is engraved with unique skills!

[Mountain and River Arrow (1/100)]

"This is the benefit of the talent tree. You can get started directly without much practice."

Bai Jing smiled.

Then, he got up and really started to practice this unique skill.

Bai Jing recalled the contents of the secret skill in his mind, his body sank slightly, and he made the starting position of this technique.

hum!
  Immediately, invisible wind and waves swept through his body, and wisps of scarlet blood emerged from his body.

The thick Qi and blood gradually condensed and transformed into substance.

But in the end, it just condensed into thick blood pillars, like thick blood.

Unable to change any more, Bai Jing's heart skipped a beat and he shouted softly: "Go!"

In an instant, three pillars of blood turned into streams of light that were difficult to catch with the naked eye. They first rose into the sky, and then fell vertically under Bai Jing's control.

Boom!
  With a violent explosion, the ground was directly penetrated, forming three small holes one foot deep.

However, Bai Jing was not very satisfied. He looked at the pool of blood in front of him, shook his head, and sighed: "I obviously condensed ten arrows, but three of them were like blood pillars as thick as the mouth of a bowl. I spent too much Qi and blood, while the other seven fell directly and uncontrollably."

"Just practice more cooking!"

He looked at the talent tree: [Mountain and River Arrow (2/100)].

My proficiency has increased a bit, but I still need to practice more, and I won’t be able to get out of the mountain until I’m perfect.

Bai Jing continued his hand gesture, and time passed slowly.

He didn't stop until the sun hit him vertically, and he collapsed on the ground panting.

[Mountain and River Arrow (5/100)]

Seeing the increase in proficiency, Bai Jing felt relieved.

But as mentioned in the classics, the requirements for Qi and blood are extremely high, and a lot of the blood and water in the green cauldron in his body was consumed.

After resting for about a stick of incense, he got up again, but he did not continue to practice his unique skills.

Bai Jing picked up the [Star Formation Basics] and read it carefully.

hum!
  In the sea of ​​consciousness, a bubble of radiance gradually formed.

After a while, the bubbles condensed perfectly and lit on the branches of the formation.

[Star Array Basics (1/150)]

Bai Jing discovered that compared to the secret technique, this relatively cheap formation was much more obscure and profound.

But as long as the talent tree exists, no matter how profound it is, it won't be a problem.

He took out the formation plate and formation flag
  In the evening, Bai Jing was about to go out to Dange, but he found that the neighbor living on the left took two large bags of things and walked out with a sad expression.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, what are you doing?" He couldn't help but ask.

"Brother Bai!" The man turned his head, seemed to have thought of something, felt depressed, and said with a sad face:

"I was anxious, anxious to do that first-level mission, but I almost died. Fortunately, I was rescued by an expert from Shangqing Mountain, but I was no longer qualified for the assessment."

"That's such a pity." Bai Jing didn't know what to say after hearing this.

"By the way, Brother Bai." The neighbor looked up and said:
  "If you don't have a certain strength, don't rush to take the test. Many people are eager for quick success. In just more than ten days, more than 3,000 people were eliminated."

"Well, I am among them." He smiled miserably.

Bai Ding nodded. In fact, he was more stable than anyone else.

He then watched his neighbor walk away.

"Shangqing Mountain only recruits about three thousand disciples. It seems not unreasonable. Many people will be stuck at the last level." Bai Jing murmured on the way to Dan Pavilion.
