Chapter 49 Promotion

On the way back to the courtyard from the outer gate, Chu Ning was thinking about the news he heard from Mu Ling.

According to Mu Ling, she heard from an elder of the sect that Qingxi Sect would expand the training of menial disciples.

Originally, making talismans, refining pills, and refining equipment were basically only taught to inner and outer disciples.

After the end of this season, menial disciples have the opportunity to learn some basic refining techniques.

However, Mu Ling also mentioned that even if it is open to menial disciples, it is limited, after all, there are so many menial disciples in Qingxi Sect.

For example, the menial disciples in the spiritual planting room, because they practice wood-attributed exercises, are relatively more suitable for making talismans.

However, the menial disciples in the D area basically have no chance to compete, but the disciples in the C area can have a chance.

"In this case, I still have to find a way to be promoted to a C area disciple."

Chu Ning carefully calculated all this in his heart.

In fact, Chu Ning can meet the hard conditions to be promoted to a C area disciple.

For example, the middle stage of Qi Refining and several planting spells can be cast instantly.

But it doesn't mean that you can be promoted to a C-district disciple if you can do all these.

Qingxi Sect will conduct promotion once a year, and the number of promotion places is very limited.

Only when you beat others in the promotion assessment can you get a place.

As for the time of the promotion assessment, Chu Ning also knew that it would be three months later.

The spiritual field that Chu Ning was assigned to after completing the assessment three months after entering the sect was left by the disciples who had been promoted before.

"I was thinking about keeping a low profile, but now it seems that some things that should be fought for should be fought for appropriately."

Entering his own courtyard, Chu Ning's face became more serious.

This time, he was not competing with new disciples like Yuan Guang.

Instead, he was competing with all the menial disciples in the D-district, including many senior brothers who had been in the sect for many years.

Chu Ning participated in the promotion assessment as a new disciple.

Regardless of whether he could complete the promotion, it would surely attract some attention from others.

But Chu Ning didn't care so much at this time.

It was not shocking for a menial disciple to break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining in a few months of a year.

As for the casting of spells, he used his previous rhetoric.

After entering Area C, he would be silent for a while, and naturally he would be forgotten slowly.

And such an opportunity, if missed once, would never come again.

After thinking this through, Chu Ning had almost no hesitation, and immediately made up his mind to participate in the promotion assessment three months later.

In the next few days, Chu Ning worked on the fields and practiced every day, but nothing special happened.

That day, Chu Ning was coming back from the fields in the evening, but he unexpectedly found that the door of the yard where Qi Chongmao lived next door was open.

Chu Ning's heart skipped a beat.

"Could it be that someone came to investigate Qi Chongmao's disappearance again?"

Zhuang Yunde clearly said that the sect would not investigate too much about the disappearance of such menial disciples.

The Law Enforcement Hall had come to investigate ten days ago, so why would someone investigate now?

Thinking of this in his heart, Chu Ning couldn't help but slow down his pace a little.

At this moment, he vaguely heard a conversation in the yard, and it was obvious that they were about to leave the yard.

Chu Ning did not hesitate any longer, and pushed open the door with a normal look, ready to enter his own yard.

"Junior brother, please stay!"

Chu Ning had just stepped into the yard when a voice suddenly came from behind him, causing him to stop.

Turning his head, Chu Ning saw a man and a woman walking out of Qi Chongmao's yard on the other side.

The middle-aged man was of medium build, about forty years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a somewhat silly look.

The woman looked younger, and although her appearance was not stunning, she was also quite pretty.

Chu Ning only had a preliminary sense that the mana fluctuations of the two people were stronger than his own, and they had both reached the sixth level of Qi Refining.

"Junior brother, my husband and I were just arranged by the sect to live here, and we will be neighbors in the future."

It was the middle-aged man who spoke, and Chu Ning was a little surprised when he heard this.

What he didn't expect was that in just one month, the sect actually arranged for someone to live in Qi Chongmao's yard, and it was a couple.

Chu Ning occasionally saw some female disciples in District D, but this was the first time he saw a couple like this.

He was about to speak, but the woman had already spoken first:

"You don't even introduce yourself, how can others know who you are."

The middle-aged man smiled innocently, and the woman turned her head and smiled at Chu Ning after she finished speaking.

"My name is Lu Yunfang, and this is my family's head, Luo Hongping, who just came back from outside and was arranged to live in this yard."

Chu Ning heard the introduction of the two and bowed, "Chu Ning meets senior brothers and sisters."

After that, he was a little surprised and said: "Just now, senior sister said that you came back from outside?"

"Well, we usually stay in the Xiuxian family..."

With Lu Yunfang's introduction, Chu Ning finally understood the situation roughly.

It turned out that the two were in the spiritual field of a Xiuxian family under the sect.

That family had a lot of spiritual fields, but the population had dwindled before, and there were few cultivators with spiritual roots, so gradually the spiritual fields could not be cultivated.

So Luo Hongping and his wife were arranged by the sect to be in charge outside.

In recent years, several immortal cultivators have gradually appeared in this family. The two had always said that they wanted to return to the sect, but there was no suitable opportunity.

This time, Qi Chongmao happened to be missing and there was no one in the spiritual field, so they called the two back.

Lu Yunfang smiled and said, "There is nothing else, just say hello."

After the other party finished speaking, Chu Ning did not respond too much, and showed that he was not very sociable at the right time, and then politely sent the two away.

Although the couple also seemed very enthusiastic, there was a precedent of Qi Chongmao before.

Chu Ning was still more vigilant in his heart. After all, it was not true that people who looked kind were harmless.

He lit a fire and cooked spiritual rice, and Chu Ning ate a large bowl.

Feeling the fragrance in his mouth and a weak spiritual power began to flow in his body, he began to practice.

As usual, Chu Ning first practiced the Nine-Evolution Body Refining Technique.

Then he practiced the Qingmu Changchun Gong for a while, and finally practiced the Soul Refining Technique.

At this moment, Chu Ning's Niwan Palace, the consciousness is still rotating in the form of mist, and there is no condensation, which also means that he still cannot use the consciousness to sense.

Chu Ning did not pay attention, but continued to practice according to the formula of the soul refining technique.

After completing all the practice of the day, it was already late at night, and Chu Ning returned to the room and fell asleep.

After thinking about it, he took out a few things from the storage bag and placed them on the pillow.

An attack talisman, a defense talisman, and his black wooden sword of unknown material.

These things were placed where he could touch them at will.

Since experiencing the incident with Qi Chongmao, Chu Ning has become more cautious even in the sect.

Especially today, two people moved into the yard next door.
