On the Holy Spirit Continent, many children from well-off families will be sent to take a spiritual intelligence test when they reach the age of seven or eight. This spiritual intelligence does not refer to IQ, but refers to the possibility of successfully achieving spiritual enlightenment and becoming a monk in the future.
The results of the intelligence test will give a value from 1 to 100. Generally, a value greater than 50 means that there is the potential to become a monk. The larger the value, the higher the possibility of becoming a monk, but also the achievements that the child may achieve in the future.
The bigger it is.
Only children with test results higher than 50 may be admitted to the Monk Academy, undergo further Qi refining training, and then undergo a spiritual enlightenment ceremony at the age of ten. If the spiritual enlightenment is successful, they will enter the ranks of monks and start further studies. If they fail, they will be dropped out of school and go home.
.
According to many years of experience and records on the Holy Spirit Continent, children with spiritual intelligence above 60 are generally expected to enter the realm of spiritual cultivation in the future; children above 70 will have greatly increased hope of spiritual cultivation. Of course, higher cultivation realms are not determined by spiritual intelligence.
Well, whether it is the character of one's mind or the adventures encountered in practice, it is often the key to determine how far a monk can go. Mortals can't imagine that the path of a monk is extremely difficult, and his life is a life-defying one.
It may lead to the end of life and death.
Mortals only see the incomparably powerful side of the monks and immortals, and rarely hear about the hardships behind their cultivation. Therefore, every year, in order to qualify for admission to this monk academy, parents of countless families try their best to come up with various ideas.
Method. Families with affluent families not only find various elixirs to strengthen their children's muscles and bones since childhood, but some families even spend a lot of money to find monks for guidance in advance for their children, and the cost is often astonishing. Usually only ordinary people can be hired.
The monks at the Spirit-Enlightening Realm and above the Spirit-Building Realm basically don’t care about this little bit of mortal money.
In the world of monks, the currency used for transactions is called "Holy Spirit Stone", which is a gemstone that condenses the power of heaven and earth. Mortals have few opportunities to come into contact with it. Holy Spirit Stones are divided into upper, middle and lower grades according to their grades. A piece of low-grade Holy Spirit
A stone can be equivalent to the income of an ordinary family for several years.
"Is this the end of Jiaming's potential?" The Grand Master's wife sighed, looked at Grand Master Jialing with a sad face and said, "I really didn't expect this result. I had some hope at first.
He can have the same physique as you, and he can inherit your mantle in the future. We may also be born in the future. But with the intelligence of 33 years old, I am afraid that even if he gets into the best school because of his old love, it will be difficult.
Is the spiritual enlightenment successful?"
The master said nothing and silently looked at the red dot on the Lingzhi Stone, which landed at the position of 33. This Lingzhi Stone is a prop for testing children's intelligence. It has a scale from low to high from 1 to 100. Hold it in the hand
After holding it in your hand for a while, the potential spiritual power in the child's body will turn into a red dot and rise towards the scale. The higher it rises, the better the physical condition will be.
Grandmaster Jia Ling's spiritual wisdom was as high as 79 when he was tested back then, and his cultivation path went smoothly until a catastrophe, when his holy power was exhausted and he had to hide in this small place.
He was expecting his children to inherit the same physique, but the result was undoubtedly a bucket of cold water poured on him, extinguishing any hope in his heart.
At this time, Jiaming ran aside and was minding his own business. He didn't understand anything about spiritual intelligence and enlightenment. Although the existence of monks was a well-known thing on the mainland, the Taishi family had always been in front of Jiaming.
Deliberately avoid mentioning it.
"I've given him a lot of magical medicine since he was a child. It's no longer a matter of day after tomorrow! Even gods can't save his congenital poor physical condition. It seems that Jiaming is doomed to have an ordinary life."
"It's okay, there's Jun'er, just wait. It's been so long, and you've only been pregnant with two children. I'm afraid you won't be able to have more children in the future. I hope Jiajun can achieve something!" After a long time, Grand Master
After saying this to his wife, he took the spiritual stone and left, leaving his wife alone in silence in the room.
"Jiaming, kid, come here!"
"What's the matter, mother?" Jiaming, who was sweating profusely from playing outside the house, heard the voice and ran quickly to his mother's room, only to see his mother with a sad face trying to squeeze out a smile. A loving mother will always love her.
Even if they already know that their children are destined to achieve nothing in the future, they still love them without hesitation.
"Jiaming, your parents are sending you to school! There will be many children to play with you at school, so you won't be lonely and can make many, many new friends!" Mrs. Taishi said slowly.
"Really? Is it the kind of school that Grandpa Li said can teach immortals?" Jiaming asked excitedly. Grandpa Li is their old butler.
"Everything, those are all lies!" Madam's face tightened, "Of course it is a school to learn the knowledge of governing the country. In the future, you can be like your father and be a great master who is loved by everyone.
!".
Now that it is known that Jiaming's path as a monk has been cut off, the only thing that can be done is to let him inherit the identity of the Grand Master and live an ordinary life among ordinary people, with no worries about food and clothing, for the rest of his life.
This hereditary status was obtained by Master Jia Ling for doing a great deed for the emperor of the Dongchen Empire before his holy power dissipated. It can be regarded as a way out for future generations.
"Well, where should I go to school? I don't want to leave home!" Jiaming raised his head and thought for a while, then asked the question he was most worried about.
"My child, when you grow up, it's time to leave your parents and live on your own! All the good schools are in Yanjing, and your father will arrange for you to go there!"
"You want me to go back to Yanjing alone? Then why did we go to such trouble to move to such a far place last year? Wouldn't it be better to stay in Yanjing then?" Jiaming became anxious and shouted.
In fact, he had asked the question of why he wanted to leave Yanjing so many times before. Every time his parents did not give a positive answer, leaving the little guy helpless.
"Stop making trouble! Later you may understand the purpose of everything your parents did today, but now you just do as we say and there is nothing to discuss!"
The Grand Master's wife looked very serious at this moment. Jiaming knew that when his mother was like this, any act of coquettishness would be useless. He trotted out of the room angrily.
"Alas!" Looking at the child's back, the Grand Master's wife sighed again: "My child, since you are destined to be a mortal, then continue to be ignorant. When you don't have strong strength, ignorance is a blessing..."
