"Are you sure you want to apply to Shushan to take the exam?" Manager Zhao looked at Zhao Yu with some surprise, "If you want to take the exam to become a handyman disciple, you must at least reach the seventh level of physical training..."
He knew exactly how Zhao Yu came here in the past three years.
He was either teasing the maid or the old aunt all day long, flirting and making love everywhere, but I never saw him practicing seriously.
"try it?"
Zhao Yu smiled and stretched out his hand.
Manager Zhao reminded: "I am at the ninth level of body refining. If you can't stand it, just shout out..."
After saying that, the two held their hands together and began to compete.
As soon as he came up, Manager Zhao directly used 50% of his strength, intending to make Zhao Yu suffer a little.
Unexpectedly, a strong counter-shock force came from my hand.
"Hey~!"
Manager Zhao was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Zhao Yu really had some strength. With this hand alone, he was at least at the fifth or sixth level of body refining.
"Okay, I have to be serious. If you can't bear it anymore, just shout out..."
Manager Zhao reminded him again, and the strength in his hands began to increase.
Sixty percent, seventy percent, eighty percent.
When he exerted 90% of his strength, he found that Zhao Yu's face was still very relaxed, and he was a little shocked.
He was also a bit worried about losing face. Based on this, Manager Zhao directly used all his strength.
"Old Zhao, hurry up and use your full strength..." Zhao Yu said with a playful smile.
This scene completely surprised Manager Zhao beyond words.
"You...have reached the ninth level of body refining?"
Being able to compete with him without losing, it is obvious that Zhao Yu's strength is equal to him.
At this time, feeling the strength in Zhao Yu's hand becoming stronger and stronger, Manager Zhao suddenly pulled his hand out.
"Okay, okay..."
He cursed secretly in his mind, he didn't expect Zhao Yu's hands to be so strong. If he continued to compete, he would be embarrassed.
"Manager Zhao, can I apply for the assessment now?"
"Of course, but I need to report it to my master..."
Manager Zhao left with a complicated expression.
He didn't understand how Zhao Yu achieved the ninth level of physical training. In the past three years, he obviously didn't see him practicing much.
But no matter what, since Zhao Yu has reached the ninth level of body refining, he can apply to take the examination in Shushan.
After all, according to his age, Zhao Yu had reached the ninth level of physical training before he was twenty years old, which met the standards of Shushan.
One day later, the second lady came back. After briefly understanding the situation, she summoned Zhao Yu.
"Silly boy, I didn't expect you to reach the ninth level of body refining!"
Zhao Ling'er was a little surprised and sighed, "No one expected that the little man back then would grow into a big man now..."
She looked at the boy who was now a head taller than her, smiled, and pretended to be mature: "Since you have reached the ninth level of physical training now, it would be a pity not to take the Shushan assessment..."
"You are a member of my Zhao family. From birth to now, you have spent time in my Zhao family. After you enter Shushan, you will also be taken care of by my Zhao family's brothers and sisters..."
She thought for a while and then said: "You probably don't have a name yet..."
"Then I will give you the surname Zhao and a given name Yu. What do you think?"
Zhao Yu couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.
It felt like an inexplicable coincidence.
His original name was Zhao Yu, but when he came here, he was a stupid fool with no name.
Now that he is qualified enough, he was given the name Zhao Yu.
Coincidentally, it's like someone is directing all this.
Could it be that some kind of power is at work?
After so many years, Zhao Yu feels that everything in the world is connected.
Seeing Zhao Yuleng on the spot, Zhao Ling'er raised the corner of her mouth. In her opinion, no servant could remain indifferent when faced with being given a name.
Obviously, Handan'er was frightened by her move of giving her name. He was probably too excited and speechless.
"I heard that you like Hu Niu very much?"
"Tiger girl?!"
Zhao Yu was stunned. In the past three years, except for Huniu sending letters every three months, he had almost never seen him again.
This was the first time I heard news about Huniu from Zhao Ling'er.
"After you pass the assessment, you will become a registered disciple. If you can become an outer disciple within half a year, then I will allow you to be with Huniu!"
"Not only that, I will also arrange for you to serve me near me so that you can get up close to Huniu!"
Zhao Ling'er had known about Huniu and Han Dan'er for a long time, but she didn't expect that Han Dan'er could also become the ninth level of body refining.
In the past, I didn't agree with them being together because I was afraid that Hu Niu would be distracted. Now that Idiot also has talent, it's just a good idea to take them under his wing.
Zhao Yu thought about it for a moment, bowed his head and thanked him.
After all, according to his personality, he is just a servant of the Zhao family. Now that he can be given a name and given the opportunity to serve in the direct lineage, he would normally be very excited.
Fortunately, Zhao Ling'er knew that Han Dan'er was mentally ill, so she wasn't too surprised when he saw his mediocre reaction.
"Very good, pack up and go up the mountain with me later!"
"yes!"
They say they are packing, but in fact there is not much to bring. Every daily necessities are available on the mountain.
It’s not like Zhao Yu has never seen disciples from Shushan.
There are many disciples who have come down from Shushan in the city, and some of them are temporarily staying on missions.
But most of them were handyman disciples who came down from the mountain to supply supplies.
Of course, for these handyman disciples, many prefer to stay in the city than in the mountains.
Because in the mountains, they belong to the lowest level, but in the city, they can gain the envy and admiration of a large number of people.
Coupled with Huniu's letter, it can be said that Zhao Yu knows as much about Shushan as Zhao Ling'er.
Of course, it was limited to the bottom layer, the situation above the foundation building stage, he still knew nothing about it, he only knew some relatively superficial things.
On the way to Shushan, Zhao Ling'er began to introduce some of the conditions on the mountain to Zhao Yu.
As everyone knows, Zhao Yu has already learned these contents from Huniu.
However, he didn't say anything and listened patiently.
When they arrived at the mountain, with Zhao Ling'er leading them, Zhao Yu passed the assessment smoothly.
Of course, it is also related to the fact that he has reached the ninth level of body refining.
However, when it comes to age review, people use bone age measurement.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! At that time, Zhao Yu was quite worried, but fortunately, the final calculation showed that he was only eighteen years old.
After receiving the supplies from the registered disciples, Zhao Yu also successfully obtained a book of Qi Refining Techniques, but only the first three levels.
"I am also practicing this Qi Refining Technique now. The complete version has nine levels, from the fourth to the ninth level. You need to wait until you become an outer disciple before I can teach it..."
Zhao Ling'er smiled and said: "During this period, you will first practice with the registered disciples. I will introduce several other people from our Zhao family so that you can take care of each other..."
After speaking, she took out the messenger charm and sent a message.
After a while, a girl rushed here.
"Second Miss!"
Although this girl was wearing the clothes of a registered disciple of Shushan, she still shouted respectfully after seeing Zhao Ling'er.
Zhao Ling'er nodded slightly and said, "This is Zhao Rongrong, now a registered disciple..."
Then she told Zhao Rongrong about Zhao Yu's situation and said: "Rongrong, Zhao Yu will be left to you..."
"Don't worry, Second Miss, I will take care of him!"
Seeing this, Zhao Ling'er nodded, exchanged communication symbols with Zhao Yu, and then left.
"Hello Zhao Yu!"
After Zhao Ling'er left, the smile on Zhao Rongrong's face faded by half, she looked Zhao Yu up and down, and then said, "Why haven't I seen you?"
She was a little confused. When she was in Zhao Mansion before, she didn't seem to see anyone like Zhao Yu.
"I practiced at the foot of the mountain..."
Hearing this, Zhao Rongrong was suddenly enlightened and asked: "Did you practice here since you were a child, or did you come from Suiyuan City before?"
Zhao Yu explained that he came here with the caravan three years ago.
A trace of contempt flashed in Zhao Rongrong's eyes.
She is only fifteen years old now and has already reached the ninth level of physical training, while Zhao Yu is eighteen years old. In comparison, her potential is too low.
"We live in the South Fourth Courtyard. They are basically the children of our Zhao family. There are more than seventy people now..."
When they arrived, Zhao Rongrong arranged Zhao Yu's residence in a corner.
Although she is also at the ninth level of physical training, she works part-time as the dormitory manager of South Fourth Hospital and is responsible for arranging the accommodation for newcomers.
Zhao Yu originally thought that Zhao Rongrong would call other people over to get to know him, but who knows, the other party left directly after arranging a place for him.
They didn't even exchange communication symbols with him, which left Zhao Yu speechless.
Huniu's letter mentioned that when they first entered the South Fourth Courtyard, all the other Zhao family children showed up and got to know each other.
"However, they were a large group of people who entered here at the same time. I am alone now, which is normal..."
Zhao Yu shook his head and did not dwell on these issues.
Anyway, for him, his status as a registered disciple is only temporary. If he wants to, he can be promoted to the qi training stage at any time, and he could even do it as early as three years ago.
But isn't the reason why you endured it for so long just to keep a low profile and make yourself less conspicuous?
Zhao Yu's own plan was to follow the path Huniu had walked and walk it again.
Because according to Huniu, her qualifications can only be considered above average, and she can enjoy certain resources, but it will not attract too much attention.
And this is exactly what Zhao Yu needs.
The South Fourth Courtyard is very large. It is just a general term. In fact, there are many courtyards, each with eight rooms.
The courtyard where Zhao Yu lives is relatively remote. Judging from the shoes placed in front of the door, there are only two other people living in this courtyard besides him.
Just at this time, the people in the two rooms heard the noise and came out.
"Who are you?"
Both boys looked to be around sixteen or seventeen years old, and both were thin.
"Is he new here?" The two saw that Zhao Yu did not have the uniform of a famous disciple, and realized that this person must have just arrived.
"Yes, my name is Zhao Yu, and I was arranged here by Senior Sister Zhao Rongrong..."
Zhao Yu said as he did as the Romans did.
As early as on the way up the mountain, Zhao Ling'er had mentioned that after entering the mountain gate, he could only be addressed as his senior fellow apprentice in public, but of course, he could do whatever he wanted in private.
"It turns out to be Junior Brother Zhao Yu!"
The two of them suddenly came to greet him enthusiastically and helped Zhao Yu bring the salute inside.
After a brief understanding, the two looked at Zhao Yu with some contempt.
"In terms of age, we are two years younger than you. When we were in school, we were also two years younger than you..."
"Then you came here last year?" Zhao Yu said casually.
"No, I came this year..."
This shows that the potential of the two of them is just that. After all, in comparison, Huniu was born at the age of fifteen, and Zhao Rongrong was also born at the age of fifteen.
And these two people are sixteen years old, and their potential is definitely not as good as those who are fifteen years old.
Of course, for the two of them, an eighteen-year-old young man like Zhao Yu has even less potential.
"Junior Brother Zhao Yu, senior brother still needs to practice, so go back first!"
After one of the two knew the details about Zhao Yu, he instantly lost the idea of making friends and left in a hurry.
When the other person saw this, he hesitated for a moment, but still did not leave directly, as if he was afraid of losing face.
"He is Senior Brother Zhao Ming. He is quite hard-working. He practices against the clock on weekdays. Don't mind..."
The man left behind smiled and said: "My name is Zhao Yi, but I still like my previous name, Ergou. By the way, what was your previous name?"
"Previous name..."
Zhao Yu gave an awkward yet polite smile, "I won't mention my previous name. My name is Zhao Yu!"
"All right!"
Zhao Yi thought that Zhao Yu might prefer his current name, so he didn't say anything more.
"As a senior brother, I need to give you a few words..."
"Senior brother, please speak!" Zhao Yu said humbly.
"Um……"
Zhao Yi nodded with satisfaction and said: "Since we have embarked on the path of cultivating immortals, we must go all out..."
"I've been here for a while, and I've seen too many people who didn't meet the standards and were eventually kicked off the mountain..."
"You just came up, so you may not have deep feelings. You think it doesn't matter even if you are driven down the mountain. You can still be a housekeeper in Zhao Mansion or something..."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "But if you think about it carefully, if you can cultivate immortality and live forever, are you willing to be a butler in a mortal mansion again?"
Zhao Yu shook his head, "Of course I don't want to!"
Zhao Yi nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "So, everyone here is very hardworking and would like to practice twelve hours a day..."
"Understood!"
Zhao Yu said seriously: "Junior brother has been taught, he will definitely practice hard and become an outer disciple as soon as possible!"
"Okay!" After a while of his senior brother's addiction, Zhao Yi returned to his room with satisfaction.
After he left, Zhao Yu took stock of his residence.
The room is about twenty square meters, with one living room, one bedroom and one bathroom.
What surprised Zhao Yu was that the bathroom was very modern and had a sewage pipe that could be flushed away directly.
After briefly familiarizing himself with the environment, Zhao Yu changed into the clothes of a registered disciple and left the room.
As for Zhao Yi's words, he had long forgotten them.
For others, practicing hard is the right path.
But for Zhao Yu, obtaining energy from others is the right way.
After three years of accumulation, he has accumulated nearly 100,000 energy points.
For others, it only takes one thousand energy to break through the restriction that others can sense Qi and advance to the first level of Qi training within one year.
Although he doesn't know how many levels of Qi training his 100,000 energy can support, continuing to gain energy is the right way.
…
"Brother, you like me, I thank you, but can you stop bothering me!"
A tall woman said helplessly: "You don't want to become an immortal, but I still want to become an immortal..."
"Recently, I have had a premonition that I am about to feel a sense of energy. If you come to me, my sense of aura will almost disappear..."
"You and I have the same status. We are both servants of the Zhao family. Now we finally have the opportunity to cultivate as immortals. Why don't you cherish it?"
Zhao Yu scratched his head, "I thought you were happy being with me!"
"Happiness is happiness, but people have to return to reality after all, right?!" The female monk shook her head and said: "Go away, don't come to me again!"
"All right……"
Zhao Yu sighed and left directly.
Looking at his back, a trace of reluctance flashed in the female monk's eyes.
Just like Zhao Yu said, during the past few days with Zhao Yu, she felt unprecedented happiness.
But as a former companion was promoted to the first level of Qi training, a sense of crisis suddenly hit her, and she quickly woke up.
She understands that if people like her have the opportunity to cultivate immortality, they must seize this opportunity and spend all their time working hard.
But what puzzled her was that Zhao Yu was obviously at the ninth level of body training just like him, so why didn't he practice hard?
On the other side, Zhao Yu also felt a little confused when he left the bamboo forest.
When they were at the Zhao Mansion at the foot of the mountain, the maids all liked to play with him, after all, he was funny and funny.
This allows Zhao Yu to obtain energy stably.
But when he got to the mountain, he found that everything had changed.
Everyone here is a cultivator and spends most of their time practicing.
Not to mention gaining energy, there is no time even for small talk.
It was rare to find someone who could talk to him, so Zhao Yu naturally tried every means to make him happy.
I thought she was someone who could harvest energy for a long time, but who would have thought that after just a few days, the female monk suddenly realized that she wanted to sever ties with her.
"Do we have to wait for a month to advance to the first level of Qi training and then find Hu Niu to get energy?!"
Zhao Yu didn't want to waste this month, but he couldn't be promoted directly now.
In the next month, Zhao Yu was in great pain.
During this period, he kept looking for targets that could obtain energy, but the only people he could contact were his fellow disciples in the body training period. They all worked hard to practice, and there was no time to travel with him and fall in love.
Finally, with one day left before the set goal, Zhao Yu couldn't help but get promoted.
"Being one day ahead of Hu Niu is not a great talent. It is still above average..."
With this in mind, Zhao Yu reported to his superiors his promotion to the qi training period.
On the same day, someone checked his cultivation, and after confirming that he had reached the first level of the Qi training stage, he was directly issued the Qi training method and registered his status as an outer disciple.
When Zhao Yu excitedly went to find Huniu, intending to obtain energy, he was told that the other party had left.
"Hu Niu, she and the second lady are out on a mission!"
"The second lady has already reached the eighth level of Qi training. The foundation building stage is not far away. She needs to accumulate merit to prepare for the exchange of foundation building pills in the future..."
"Since you are also a member of our Zhao family and have become an outer disciple, then move here to live..."
What makes Zhao Yu helpless is that he finally got promoted, but Huniu is no longer here.
After settling in a place to live, Zhao Yusi thought about it and found that there seemed to be no good place to go, so he simply went to a place where he could pick up the mission.
The cultivation realm that others need to practice hard to improve, for him, only requires energy.
This also means that he can have a lot of time to complete tasks.
When he clicked on the task list, there were not many tasks that he, a first-level Qi training monk, could take on.
Zhao Yu started picking them one by one.
According to the experience he has accumulated over the years, it is best for the object of experience to be gained from a woman, because the energy gained from her body is large and fast.
"Assist in weapon refining and be a fan boy, no, no, no, the people here are all rough guys..."
"It's impossible to cultivate farmland and be a spiritual farmer. How can a female monk do such tiring work as farming..."
Zhao Yu picked and picked, and finally selected a mission with a high probability of having many female monks.
