Chapter 174: The Difference Is Obvious

Being called Lao Zi by Pavilion Master Hong Lie one by one, the house elder felt very uncomfortable, but he still said honestly: "Miracle Taoist, extremely talented, worthy of the second class."

Everyone had already guessed this result and nodded. But Pavilion Master Hong Lie frowned: "Best class? So you look down on our sword skills?"

The house elder's heart skipped a beat, why would he look down on you bunch of cutthroats if he just rated the magical Taoist?

The house elder said sarcastically: "Pavilion Master Honglie, what do you say?"

"Miracle Taoist, it took him just one stick of incense to fully comprehend the Dragon-Slaying Sword Technique. No matter in terms of understanding or proficiency in the art of swordsmanship, he deserves to be ranked first!" Elder Hong Lie's eyes widened in anger, "You are so awesome that you can only give him a second rank. Is this possible? Don’t you look down on us sword cultivators?”

Just as the house elder was about to explain something, Pavilion Master Hong Lie clenched his fists: "Speaking of which, Lao Zizi, we haven't practiced for a long time. Why don't we spar later?"

When he said this, the elder of the house paled obviously. Although he and Pavilion Master Honglie were both masters of the Mahayana realm, different monks had different specialties. Sword cultivators were pure killing machines. He dared to compete with each other.

The house elder was silent for a moment, took a pen, and abruptly changed the unfinished word "B" to A, and said righteously: "In this way, the grade A rating is more reliable!"

Everyone was speechless for a while. What would be safer? Can you make it clear that your internal affairs elder is afraid of being beaten? However, the special skills of the magical Taoist are worthy of Grade A evaluation, and the monks dare not discuss anything.

Pavilion Master Hong Lie was satisfied and patted Zhang Ye on the shoulder: "If you feel wronged by Dingyuan in the future, you are always welcome in Dao Pavilion!"

After saying that, Pavilion Master Honglie glanced at Dingyuan bitterly, then turned into rainbow light and flew away.

Zhang Ye thinks this Hong Lie Pavilion Master is quite interesting. He comes and goes in a hurry, and by the way, he has helped him get a Grade A rating, which is quite good.

The monks looked at Zhang Ye differently. Before he passed the entrance test, the heads of the two departments started to compete for people. In addition, no one has ever obtained the evaluation of the magical Taoist Double Armor since the rules of the entrance test were established. Double armor, no matter what happens in the next interview session, the magical Taoist is the well-deserved newcomer king.

As for Xu Jie on the side, he looked at the house elder eagerly. The magical Taoist's rating was changed to A, so ours should be changed back to B, right?

However, the house elder obviously forgot about this: "Okay, let's take the third test, ask the heart!" Xu Jie had a look on his face.

It is said that the purpose of this heart inquiry is to screen out spies or other people with ulterior motives from sneaking into the sect. Only those who have passed the heart inquiry stage can truly be one of our own.

Zhang Ye was slightly nervous. Although he had been prepared, if the questioning time lasted for more than one stick of incense, Zhang Ye might completely lose himself.

For this reason, Zhang Ye did not immediately become a made-up magical Taoist. Instead, he waited until the true inquiry began before swallowing the elixir.

"Which one of you two will start first?" The internal affairs elder was more looking forward to the test results of the magical Taoist, so he looked at Zhang Ye.

It doesn't matter who comes first. Zhang Ye swallowed the pill that had been hidden in his mouth for a long time and said, "I'll go first."

But Xu Jie said "I'll go first" almost at the same time. Zhang Ye looked confused, "Why the hell didn't you say it earlier if you wanted to go first?" I told you earlier that I would let you!

After all, the internal affairs elder favored Zhang Ye and said, "Then let Taoist Miracle go first."

Zhang Ye breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, the effect of the medicine has slowly taken effect. Zhang Ye's consciousness was a little blurry, and a new consciousness gradually took control of his body. Zhang Ye had been trained by Su Jin, and he immediately got up and started to use his mental methods to guide the new consciousness. .

However, at this moment, Patriarch Baimei said: "Wait a minute, Xu Jie was the one who said he would accept the heart inquiry first, so why is it the turn of Taoist Miracle? Elder of the Internal Affairs, you are partial!" Although the victory or defeat is almost a foregone conclusion, Baimei The ancestor doesn’t steam the steamed buns to fight for his reputation!

The House Elder's face stiffened. Xu Jie did speak a little ahead of him just now. In fact, it really doesn't matter who goes first and who comes last. But Patriarch Baimei said that he was partial, which would be unfair. The House Elder was going to let Xu Jie start first.

But before he could speak, Elder Dingyuan stopped again: "Ancestor Baimei, why do I feel that it was Taoist Miracle who said it first?"

The two of them are used to fighting, and they won't give in no matter how small the situation is. They argue endlessly with each other's words.

Zhang Ye was so anxious that he had swallowed all the medicine. What can you do for me? He thought for a while, usually it only took him half a cup of tea to ask questions, but he couldn't decide who would take precedence at this moment, so he simply let Xu Jie get it first, and when he finished, he would still have time.

"Elders, I am willing to take the test behind Xu Jie." Zhang Ye said with difficulty, his consciousness now very blurred.

Elder Dingyuan was originally arguing with Patriarch Baimei. Hearing Zhang Ye's words, Elder Dingyuan was not happy at first. But thinking that he had said that he must support Zhang Ye unconditionally, he had an idea and said: "Look, what is it?" High integrity, what is character? In ancient times, Kong Rong gave pear, and now there is a magical Taoist test! "

The elder of the internal affairs also glanced at Zhang Ye gratefully. He did not dare to offend either Dingyuan or Baimei. The magical Taoist was willing to give up the first test, which also solved the problem for the elder of the internal affairs.

"In this case, let Xu Jie start asking questions!" the house elder said, and Dingyuan no longer vetoed it, and it was settled.

Zhang Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and his consciousness gradually separated from his body. He felt a little out-of-body, watching himself like a bystander.

The fabricated magical Taoist has taken over the body. His memory is in line with the entrance test to Tiandao Palace, so he did not feel surprised and stood quietly in the field.

Not long after, the internal affairs elder lit a calming incense, intending to relax the tester and facilitate the questioning stage.

The internal affairs elder took out a bronze mirror, which can show the scene deep in Xu Jie's consciousness and play a public role.

After making these preparations, the internal affairs elder put his mind into Xu Jie's sea of ​​consciousness. Soon, the bronze mirror showed the internal affairs elder standing in front of a ball of light and began to ask questions.

"Do you have any ulterior motives for joining Tiandao Palace?" The consciousness will not lie, and the internal affairs elder asked directly.

Xu Jie's subconscious answered: "I want to become stronger and replace the White Eyebrow Ancestor."

Xu Jie was obviously introduced by the White Eyebrow Ancestor, but he said he wanted to replace him. He is really an ungrateful person. However, it is understandable that a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier. The White Eyebrow Patriarch did not say anything, and other cultivators could not say anything.

Dingyuan glanced at the White Eyebrow Patriarch without mocking him. Who knows what the magical Taoist will answer behind him? It is better to be safe than sorry.

According to the regulations, the Internal Affairs Elder did not continue to delve into this question, but asked the next question: "Will you be loyal to the Tiandao Palace? Please answer with yes or no."

"Yes." As long as he answered yes, Xu Jie had already passed the entrance test halfway.

The Internal Affairs Elder asked the last question: "Then under what circumstances will you betray the Tiandao Palace?"

Being loyal now does not mean that you will be loyal in the future. People's hearts are changeable. The Tiandao Palace deeply understands this truth, so this question is set to directly ask the conditions for cultivators to betray the Tiandao Palace, record it in the personnel file, and prevent it before it happens.

All the cultivators present have experienced it, and the answers are varied. Some people answered when there are enough benefits, and some answered when the sect treats them unfairly. There are many kinds of answers. If the answer is harmless, it will be fine. If it is too much, the test score will be cancelled and he will be expelled from the sect.

Therefore, when the internal affairs elder asked this question, the monks listened attentively, wanting to know under what circumstances Xu Jie would betray the sect.

Because this is something that has never happened, Xu Jie's subconscious mind thought for a long time, and finally said: "The Tiandao Palace killed my close relatives."

This answer was not for his own interests, but because his close relatives betrayed the Tiandao Palace. This proved Xu Jie's selflessness and bloodiness, which made the monks respect him.

There are only three questions in the heart-to-heart question. The internal affairs elder withdrew his divine thoughts and thought for a moment. In view of the last answer, which touched people's hearts, he gave Xu Jie a B-level evaluation. This is the best rating in the heart-to-heart question link, and few people in the entire Tiandao Palace have obtained it.

As for the A-level of the heart-to-heart question, no one has ever obtained it. Because the A-level evaluation requires the monks to have no possibility of betraying the sect, even if it is just a hypothesis. But the third question requires the monks to make assumptions, so the A-level rating only exists in theory.

Xu Jie regained consciousness. After learning his answer and evaluation, he breathed a sigh of relief and then looked at Zhang Ye as if showing off. He was sure that this was a nearly perfect answer, and he could finally beat the magical Taoist.

Of course, he also hoped that the magical Taoist would make a big mistake in the questioning stage, so that he might be able to turn defeat into victory and get the position of teaching new people.

The monks also looked at Zhang Ye. Would this magical Taoist who had already won the double armor create another miracle and become the third armor? But it was just a thought, because it was absolutely impossible.

If someone was familiar with Zhang Ye, they would find that Zhang Ye's eyes were a little different now, because Zhang Ye was no longer himself.

The internal affairs elder said to Zhang Ye: "It's your turn next. Relax your guard. I will enter your sea of ​​consciousness with my divine thoughts."

Zhang Ye's self-consciousness floated outside his body like a spectator. Seeing that his questioning finally began, he breathed a sigh of relief. The time of an incense stick was still sufficient.

The thoughts of the Internal Affairs Elder entered the subconscious of the Magic Taoist, and the scene inside appeared on the bronze mirror. The Internal Affairs Elder asked: "Do you have any ulterior motives for joining the Tiandao Palace?"

The Magic Taoist's consciousness replied: "Yes, I joined the Tiandao Palace not to make up for my mistakes."

When this was said, the monks looked as if it was true. Elder Dingyuan looked a little unhappy, but this was also human nature. At that time, the Magic Taoist killed Elder Qingchen. In order to save his life, he could do anything.

But the White Eyebrow Patriarch sneered: "Elder Dingyuan, you know a person's face but not his heart, so you must open your eyes."

"You..." Elder Dingyuan was about to say that Xu Jie, who you introduced, could be so good? But the Magic Taoist continued: "It is to repay Elder Dingyuan for his kindness."

Everyone's face froze. Not to make up for the mistakes, but to repay Elder Dingyuan? In the questioning stage, the Magic Taoist's subconscious mind could not flatter. This answer was enough to prove that the Magic Taoist was grateful to Elder Dingyuan from the bottom of his heart!

Elder Dingyuan also reacted, with a pile of beard, laughing heartily, he really did not trust the wrong person. Then he glared: "White Eyebrow Ancestor, you can know a person's face but not his heart, you must open your eyes!"

Xu Jie said earlier that he wanted to replace White Eyebrow Ancestor, while the magical Taoist said that he wanted to repay Dingyuan's kindness. They were both recommending talents, so the difference was obvious!

In addition, using White Eyebrow Ancestor's words to retort exactly, Elder Dingyuan felt that it was more satisfying than swearing.
