At this point, Wei Ci no longer planned to listen any more, because he had already reached the stage of insight!
As for the promotion of Yuan Realm, Xing Xiuyuan had talked about it before, and Bai Nianran had mentioned it to him, and he had also studied it on his own in the classics published by the Island Lord's Mansion.
Now, he only needs to open all the energy points and open up all the meridians to find a way to break through and advance to the second level.
So after the two instructors finished explaining the stages of opening acupoints and unblocking meridians, he left Zhang Yu and ran away.
The theoretical training course that originally lasted for two days ended early after only studying for more than one day.
When Wei Ci returned to the Li family courtyard, it was still early.
Before he could practice, a waiter came and conveyed to him the archery training task that Bai Nianran had given him before leaving - within 3 months, hit the bullseye with 10,000 arrows from 70 meters away.
These ten thousand arrows must be shot with a black iron longbow, and the target must be 70 meters away.
A simple calculation showed that if the 10,000 arrows were spread evenly over 3 months, he would have to shoot at least 111 arrows every day.
This result made Wei Ci scratch his head. Bai Nianran might have even taken into account the improvement in physical fitness brought about by his progress in cultivation.
The arrangements are clear.
Thinking of the mountains of arrows, Wei Ci shuddered.
The hard life began.
Wei Ci spent most of the day practicing archery. When he was hungry, the waiter would bring him food. When he was tired, he would meditate to stimulate the recovery of the nine large air holes. At night, he continued to meditate and practice instead of sleeping, and even replenished the energy of the Golden Book.
, he didn’t even have time to do it.
For more than half a month, Wei Ci was like this every day.
He discovered with some annoyance that even if he spent all his time practicing archery during the day, it would be difficult to meet the requirement of 111 arrows per day.
At a distance of more than 70 meters, it is as difficult for a black iron longbow to hit the target as it is to hit a target 150 meters away with an ordinary arrow.
The main reason is the dark armguards that have been hanging on his arms since the beginning, and the black iron long bow that cannot use the energy amplification.
The heavy armguards pressed on both arms, and whenever he raised the bow, it would bring him huge resistance like a heavy weight.
The black iron longbow forced him to only use his body's most primitive strength to shoot.
This is the result of opening an air pocket on each of his arms for strengthening.
After nearly a month, he had only completed more than 600 arrows in total.
And just when Wei Ci was practicing crazily and working hard on archery to complete his mission, the annual trial on Sanye Island came again!
In the last trial, Wei Ci and Zhang Yu got a chance to enter the island master's treasure house because they ranked in the top 3. Wei Ci used the golden book to obtain finger bones and energy.
It can be said that the harvest was quite fruitful.
So this time, Wei Ci's interest was equally high. He was worried about where to find the energy, and the opportunity was about to come!
Before leaving, he made some preparations.
During the last trial, he and Zhang Yu spent the night hiding in a tree hole. It could be said that they were cold and hungry.
This time, you have to prepare for everything.
He temporarily found some saltpeter for making fire from the kitchen in the Li family's courtyard, and also took some cooking seasonings and put them in the Xumi space for later use, before packing up and setting off.
The starting point is still the martial arts training ground, which is also where the team is formed.
Some family members who had never shown up before were gradually present, including Xing Ming, Xing Haoran, Hou Li, Lu Jue, Lin Tao and other leading figures of this generation.
Although there was no agreement in advance, Zhang Yu was already waiting for Wei Ci when he arrived based on the experience of the last cooperation.
This was exactly what he wanted.
Lu Jue looked at Wei Ci and Zhang Yu standing together as a team with a cold look in his eyes. He would not forget that the last time he missed the top three was because the two of them came out as dark horses in the end and successfully slapped each other in the face.
"I hope they have the same good luck this time, huh!" Hou Li glanced at Zhang Yu disdainfully and said to Lu Jue.
Obviously Wei Ci and Zhang Yu are not the only old partners. Lu Jue and Hou Li have also formed a team again.
Zhang Yu's honest and honest look really made Hou Li angry.
In his opinion, the reason why Zhang Yu's team ranked among the top three last time was entirely due to the good luck of the spiritual-level middle-level alien crab spider.
Xing Ming just glanced at Wei Ci casually and stopped paying attention.
For them, the trial is not too difficult, just crush them with strength.
Under the arrangement of the two instructors, teams of two were quickly divided into groups.
Wei Ci counted 46 people, which made up exactly 23 teams, a few less than last year. Others also noticed the change in the number of people, some were emotional, and some were silent.
After all, the missing people either died or gave up their practice and left, becoming ordinary people.
Wei Ci was also a little sad. The road to spiritual practice was long, and some people just disappeared as they walked.
Since everyone's strength has generally reached the stage of opening acupuncture points and unblocking meridians, the trial location this time was changed to the second trial area, which is the separated area on the third leaf of Sanye Island.
The mission is similar to the previous one, you still kill strange beasts to rank by points.
This method is primitive and crude, but simple and practical.
The entrance to the second trial area is a dense forest called "Deer Forest".
The Deer Forest is a dense forest surrounded by dense high-crown broad-leaf trees. The high-crown broad-leaf trees are just like their name, with huge leaves and thick trunks that block the sky and the sun. There is always a sense of oppression in the forest.
According to Xing Gu's reminder, the strength of the alien beasts in the second trial area is one level higher than that in the first trial area, and they are generally at the high spiritual level.
It's just that Lulin is a bit special. Most of the strange beasts living there are mid-level and low-level spirits, so it was chosen as the location for this trial.
Even so, the island owner's mansion assigned high cultivators in advance to clean up the area for the warriors.
Most of the people's cultivations are at the first and second level, and their strength is comparable to that of the intermediate spirit-level beasts. In the case of two or two teams, it is not a problem to deal with the intermediate spirit-level beasts. In fact, there is no problem with the high-level spirit ones.
If you can't fight, you can still run.
The scope of this trial is limited to Lulin. Teams that leave Lulin will be directly eliminated and lose the qualification for the trial.
As soon as the 23 two-person teams entered Lulin, they separated.
Wei Ci held his Qingling Bow in his hand and carried more than 70 arrows left over from the last trial on his back, and he and Zhang Yu moved forward cautiously.
The black iron long bow and the 10 matching arrows were stored in the Sumeru space. These two things were fine for practicing archery, but they were not practical for actual combat, at least not for Wei Ci now.
Because his strength is too low, he cannot exert the power of the black iron longbow at all.
The arm guards were firmly worn on his body. Wei Ci had become accustomed to their weight and had no intention of taking them off.
The Qingling Bow can infuse one's own vitality to increase its power. Although the increase is very small, it is very suitable for Wei Ci at this stage.
It was for this reason that Mr. Mu gave him this bow.
"Whoosh!" Wei Ci suddenly shot an arrow from a distance. Just now, his mental power noticed that there was movement in the grass ahead.
