Chapter 49 Taking the initiative to go astray
Touching the jade plaque in his hand, Chen Changying tried to inject his spiritual consciousness into it.
A well-detailed map appeared immediately.
On the map, there are sparse and different light spots of different sizes flashing frequently.
"It seems that you have already begun to try out its usage on your own."
Seeing that the three people in front of him were lost in thought one after another, Zhang Tianyuan added: "The marked points on the letter plate represent each trial task."
"Where there are many light spots and large light spots, it means that the trial tasks are many and complex. On the contrary, it means that the tasks are easy and simple."
"The difficulty of the trial is different, and the points obtained will naturally be different."
I carefully wrote down the new rules for going out to practice as described by Deacon Zhang, while my eyes continued to scan all the light spots on the road map.
In addition to the information he just heard, Chen Changying also discovered that the entire light spots were distributed everywhere, with a common end point.
Dongxia City is an independent town located at the junction of Qingyang Sect, Spirit Beast Valley and Wuya Sect.
That should be the destination for all the inner disciples of the sect to go out to practice.
While thinking secretly, Deacon Zhang continued to state, "After you set off, your location will also appear on the map."
"Everyone can check the location of other disciples and the relevant points ranking."
"At that time, the elders will refer to the points of each team and give the final reward. Among them, all members of the best team will receive an Enlightenment Pill."
Enlightenment Pill?
If I remember correctly, it is a kind of earth-level low-grade elixir that can help sense the Tao Yun and has a probability of improving the monk's qualifications.
The sect really spent a lot of money this time.
Based on the above, a simple summary of this innovation in outing practice is that it eliminates the need to come back to receive new trial tasks.
Avoid the dominant influence of accompanying deacons, and use a more intuitive method to display the results of inner disciples’ outbound practice.
And, through the form of points ranking, it stimulates the idea of competing among everyone.
After a rough analysis, Chen Changying already had a rough idea in his mind.
On the other side, Deacon Zhang’s relevant explanation has also ended.
As the captain of the team, the most important issue he needs to consider now is how to plan the route from here to Dongxia City.
Different route choices will inevitably affect a series of subsequent arrangements.
Areas with more light spots represent more trial tasks and rich points rewards.
Along with this, the number of teams choosing to go there will definitely increase accordingly, and the competitive pressure will also increase.
In areas with few light spots, the trial tasks are simple and easy, and the points will be relatively few.
The advantage is that competition may be relatively small and completion efficiency can be improved.
Alternatively, you can also find another way, first skipping the two nearest large areas that contain trial tasks, and go directly to the town further away.
In this case, you might be able to gain a lot of points without having to compete with other teams.
At this moment, Chen Changying glanced back and forth at several designated places, making his final decision.
Just when he was about to make a judgment, system information appeared in his mind.
[Option 1: Set off for the nearby Beiyang City. Completion reward: Green Fire Technique - Xuan-level low-grade technique]
[Option 2: Set off to the nearby Shanqian Town. Completion reward: Water Song Jue-Xuan level low-grade technique]
[Option 3: Set off to Zecheng, which is far away. Completion reward: Liyuan Dan-yellow-level high-grade elixir]
[Option 4: Set off for Qingshui City, which is not far away. Completion reward: random attribute point +1]
These options one to four almost correspond to the three options I just thought of.
It's just Qingshui City that he has just observed.
Comparing the map marks on the letter plate, there were only two or three small light spots there.
Even if you conquer all the trial tasks, you won't get any points.
Even if it's the simplest route, wouldn't this be too hasty?
At any rate, it is now an outing practice that the sect attaches great importance to and spends countless efforts on.
While hesitating, Chen Changying looked back at the three graded rewards in front of him.
Finally, I thought about Wei Changsong, who just had a grudge not long ago.
At least so far, the system has never gone wrong.
On the other hand, I may indeed have made some omissions, or there are some unknown things that I don’t know yet.
After several considerations, he finally decided to agree with the system prompts, took back his consciousness from the letter plate, and said: "Get ready to go. Our first stop will be Qingshui City."
…
One day later.
Qingshui City, on the streets of Chengzhong District.
Zhang Tianyuan, who was following Chen Changying and others from a distance, couldn't help but shake his head.
Let’s talk about the inner disciples that I am responsible for.
Even the first few trial tasks had a weird feeling of being completed without even realizing it.
But regardless of their level of strength or cultivation qualifications, they can be said to be quite outstanding among the inner disciples of the same generation.
When the team leader arranges the division of labor, he will rarely be unconvinced or intentionally make mistakes.
This was originally a good thing.
But even when Chen Changying proposed to set the first stop in Qingshui City to carry out the trial mission, Jiang Hongli stood up and supported it immediately.
Zhou Yuan seemed to hesitate for a long time and finally did not say anything.
That's very problematic.
Here, there are only two or three light spots in total.
Even the trial tasks here were set up by him personally two days ago.
Zhang Tianyuan knows exactly what kind of situation it will be and how many trial points will be obtained in the end.
When the three elders gathered the deacons from all peaks together, they naturally did not just focus on making a magical weapon.
For the letter plate to play its due role, of course someone needs to find the trial missions represented by those light spots.
Most of the deacons had not shown up for the past few days just to do this.
According to his original plan, he was thinking that some inner disciples with relatively mediocre abilities would not have to compete with others and could gain some points by coming here.
Letting Chen Changying and others stay here would be overkill.
And it will also delay the progress of their next trial.
However, although I know this clearly in my heart, as a qualified accompanying deacon.
He cannot give any relevant hints.
I could only watch helplessly as the three of them went astray.
Walking in the bustling streets, Chen Changying glanced back and forth at the surroundings.
The light spots on the letter plate can only represent how many tasks there are in this area, but they do not mark them accurately.
According to what Deacon Zhang said earlier, very unique, irregular diamond-shaped marks will appear near the relevant trials.
So, how to find it smoothly.
This requires inner disciples to show their observation and analysis skills.
And this is also a very important part of outside practice after the reform.
Qingshui City, a large city with a population of 300,000, has only two or three bright spots.
You can imagine how difficult the trial mission is to find out.
Chapter completed!
