Chapter 302: The Gap between Men and Women Compared to the expensive top-level magic weapons, the Divine Fire Sword, which is simple to refine and low in cost, is obviously more suitable for large-scale granting to younger disciples. “Several of my junior brothers and sisters have just arrived, and they have not yet learned magical powers and spells. Even if they have magic weapons, they cannot bring out their power. "That's why the villa didn't issue any magic weapons." Jin Renfeng smiled and said, "But you are all inner disciples, and you are all qualified to obtain magic weapons." "As long as you practice diligently and become proficient in magic, Master will definitely give you a magic weapon." "My fellow disciples, there is no need to rush." Upon hearing this, several casual cultivators looked expectant. Although they have already entered the threshold of cultivation, they do not even have a magic weapon on them because they have no family support.
Guan Pengyun, the only wealthy one, only owns one magic weapon. Although its power is limited and cannot even compare to the magic weapon of the little demon, it is still a protective item after all. Therefore, now that they heard that they could obtain magic weapons directly, all the independent cultivators were extremely delighted. "It seems that I made the right decision to become a disciple at Shenhuoshan Villa this time." Guan Pengyun said in his heart. There is hope of being promoted to a direct disciple, and the possibility of obtaining magic weapons. For independent cultivators, there is no better place than this. . . . . . . After arranging a group of fellow apprentices, Jin Renfeng led Shu Xiaoxiao to another place. After walking through the bamboo garden and passing through the corner gate, they arrived at the Huaizhu courtyard. Shu Xiaoxiao is a direct disciple and according to the rules, she can have a courtyard of her own. Because she was a female disciple, the master arranged her to live next to Huaizhu. When I walked to the front of the courtyard, I saw Huaizhu standing by the gate with a smile on his face. "Why is Junior Sister here?" Jin Renfeng stepped forward and asked. "Of course I'm here to wait for Junior Sister Shu." Huaizhu raised her eyebrows slightly, glanced at Shu Xiaoxiao who was hiding behind, and said softly. "There is a new junior sister in the villa, so naturally I, as her senior sister, have to help her out a bit." "That's a good feeling!" Jin Renfeng nodded slightly. "It just so happens that I need to help Fourth Junior Sister arrange accommodation. If I can get help from Junior Sister, I will be able to relax a lot."
As he said this, he walked straight towards the yard. Huaizhu raised his hand and grabbed the boy's arm. "Brother, Junior Sister Shu is a woman, and her personal belongings are bound to be private, so it's not convenient for you to take care of her. Let me do it." Jin Renfeng stopped, thought for a moment, and nodded. After all, this is the feudal era. Although there are immortal cultivation sects, the barriers between men and women have been reduced a lot, but they are still there. "I didn't think it through!" Jin Renfeng laughed and said, "Since Junior Sister is willing to help, I'll trouble you." Shu Xiaoxiao glanced at Huaizhu timidly, but saw that her cheeks were as red as fresh lychees, her nose was as rosy as goose fat, her shoulders were slender, her waist was thin, and she was tall and slender. She was wearing a long green skirt and hairpins and rings on her head. She was dressed neatly and gorgeously, like a fairy in heaven. He bent his head to take another look, but saw that he was wearing coarse linen clothes and tattered clothes, like a little beggar, and he couldn't help feeling ashamed of himself. "Huaizhu is Master's daughter and the second oldest disciple. You can call her Second Senior Sister." Jin Renfeng turned around and introduced Shu Xiaoxiao. "Second Senior Sister!" Shu Xiaoxiao called out timidly. Huaizhu nodded her head slightly, and her autumn eyes looked at the tattered clothes. Shu Xiaoxiao, who was shrinking timidly, spoke softly, "Junior Sister Shu, you don't have to be afraid of me." "In this mountain villa, I am just an ordinary disciple. Being the daughter of the villa owner is actually meaningless." "Since you have become my father's disciple, we are one family. Just treat me as your sister." "Sister Huaizhu!" Shu Xiaoxiao changed her words accordingly. Huaizhu responded and walked forward to hold the girl's hand. "There are few female disciples in our villa. Including Junior Sister Lu, there are only four." "There are not many people I can talk to. Now that my junior sister is here, I have another close friend." "If you need anything to eat or use in the future, you can come to me." "I will try my best to help if I can." Huaizhu spoke softly, like a close sister. Hearing these words of comfort, the tension in Shu Xiaoxiao's brows eased a little, and the sense of alienation from being in a new and unfamiliar place also disappeared a lot. After a few words, the two women became familiar with each other. Then Huaizhu took Shu Xiaoxiao and walked into the yard.
The two women have graceful and slender figures. Jin Renfeng was about to follow in. But the junior sister waved her sleeves and slammed the gate tightly. Jin Renfeng patted the gate and called out, "Junior sister, why did you leave me outside?" Huaizhu's voice sounded slowly. "Men and women should not touch each other. How can a man like you enter the residence of this female disciple?" "Brother, you have been busy for half a day, you must be tired, you should go back and rest early!" Jin Renfeng was frustrated and couldn't help feeling depressed. He had been to Junior Sister Huaizhu's yard and house quite often before, visiting whenever he had something to do. She never stopped him on weekdays. As a result, his own house was not protected, but this happened to Junior Sister Shu. It is really confusing. Feeling puzzled, but unable to force his way in, Jin Renfeng could only turn around and leave. . . . . . . After returning to his residence, thinking that he had nothing to do, Jin Renfeng sat cross-legged on the bed and began his day's practice. He immersed his mind into his body and checked the source of his Qi. Perhaps because of the nourishment of the vast magical power, the seeds planted previously grew very rapidly. In just a few days, a circular Qi ball was formed, floating in the Dantian. "According to this progress, in another three months, I will be able to cultivate this Qi ball to the level of a Qi infant again." Jin Renfeng murmured, I have practiced in a world of one person before, so I am very familiar with all stages of the origin of Qi. "Only with a Qi infant can the various abilities of the Qi body source flow be able to take effect." "Then, with the protection of the Qi body source, I will not be afraid of assassins." Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel irritated. "I am the great Jin Renfeng, but I was blocked at the gate by a mere assassin. I don't even dare to go out. It's so pathetic." "If I have the chance in the future, I must teach the Wang Quan family a lesson to avenge today's vengeance." The young man cursed and swore a vow for the future. . . . . . . The next day. squeak-
At 7:00 ., the gate opened on time and the villa began a new round of recruitment. The sun shines all over the earth, giving the Shenhuoshan Villa located on the hillside of Tianhuoshan Mountain a layer of gold. In the early morning air, Jin Renfeng led more than a hundred people who came to become his disciples into the front yard of the villa. "Why are there so many people here again?" Sitting in front of the desk, Huaizhu, holding a pen and ink, looked at the bustling crowd with a surprised look. "Looking at the number of people, I'm afraid it's even more than the day before." "I think those who didn't pass the selection before came to take the second test to try their luck." Jin Renfeng said softly. In the crowd, he saw several familiar faces from the last test. "With the addition of many people who came yesterday to become my disciples, we have gathered so many people." "Brother is really generous. He casually promised me two test opportunities." Huaizhu said sadly, "Now those who wanted to become my disciples are happy, but it just makes me work twice as hard for nothing." Although the villa has a lot more manpower after the previous selection, there are also many people who can read and write. But because they had to attend morning classes, all the new disciples were unable to get away. As a result, the task of recruiting disciples fell on the shoulders of the two of them. "Don't blame me, Junior Sister!" Jin Renfeng laughed awkwardly. “I had no choice but to respond in this way.” "I don't see where the helplessness is!" Huaizhu glanced at the young man and snorted. Jin Renfeng explained, "Junior sister, you only saw that I gave the selected candidates a second chance, but you forgot the situation in our villa." "This time, our villa is planning to accept disciples for a long time, and the duration may be three to two months." "According to the frequency of conducting selection tests every two or three days, there will be 30 to 40 tests during this period." "Those who came here excitedly to become my disciples would definitely feel unwilling if they were frustrated in the selection process." "If we only give them one chance, they won't give up." "By then, even if I don't give them a second chance, there will inevitably be people who take advantage of the situation and participate in the sect assessment multiple times." "By then, let alone twice, there may be many people who have taken the test three or four times." "What's the big deal? Can't we just find out the people who have participated in the selection multiple times?"
Huaizhu was puzzled. "But if we want to catch those people, we have to check their names and hometowns one by one." “This requires a lot of literate people.” Jin Renfeng said helplessly, "We are short of manpower in the villa, so we can't do this." Ultimately, it was the backward communication methods in the feudal era that led to the emergence of loopholes. In this era without the Internet, computers, or photos, it is not an easy task to filter out duplicate names and places of origin in the list. "That's why I gave them one more chance." "This way, if they fail once, they won't lose hope. If they fail the second assessment, they will be able to recognize their own strength. They can retreat when they know the difficulty." "Brother is really good at making excuses!" Huaizhu glanced at him. "After all, isn't it true that Senior Brother's approach cannot prevent people from repeating the test?" “The second chance also gave many people who only wanted to participate once the idea of doing it again.” “There are still a lot more people inside and outside!” Jin Renfeng laughed awkwardly. In fact, he really didn't think much about it before. He just saw everyone begging so hard and couldn't bear it, so he promised to give those who wanted to become his disciples a second chance. All the reasons just given are just sophistry. With his photographic memory, it is not difficult for him to screen out people who have taken multiple tests. . . . . . . in the hall. Looking at the dozen or so children in front of him, Dongfang Gu Yue couldn't help but frown, with an angry look on his face. He had never seen a disciple so difficult to teach! After a full half day of his careful teaching and patient explanation, these new disciples did not make any progress at all in their practice of the Pure Yang Heart Sutra. How can there be such stupid people in this world? Dongfang Guyue couldn't help but doubt his life. It's just a book of martial arts with only tens of thousands of words. Is it difficult to memorize the whole thing? How could someone not remember a technique in half a day? It would be fine if it was just the two illiterate mortal disciples, but the group of independent cultivators couldn't do it. When he was teaching his eldest disciple Jin Renfeng before, even though he was unable to cultivate magical powers due to physical reasons, he quickly memorized the contents of the exercises and mastered the qi circulation routes of the Pure Yang Heart Sutra. However, these disciples before him had consumed so much of his energy but gained nothing. They didn't even understand the Qi meridians. All these gaps made Dongfang Guyue feel extremely disappointed.
"Master! It's already noon, let's have lunch first!" At this time, Jin Renfeng walked into the lobby and spoke. "It's a human phoenix!" Seeing this senior disciple appear, Dongfang Gu Yue felt quite relieved. Fortunately, there is still this great disciple. "Is it noon already? Then let's stop here for today!" Dongfang Guyue said lightly. As soon as he finished speaking, all the disciples behind the table breathed a sigh of relief. The disappointment in the master's eyes just now could hardly be concealed, and they were extremely scared, fearing that they would be expelled from the sect in the next moment. Fortunately, the eldest senior brother came forward and saved their lives. Jin Renfeng helped the master to get up from the armchair and walked slowly out of the hall. "Ren Feng, these junior brothers and sisters of yours are really disappointing." The old man looked sullen. "I've been practicing for decades, and this is the first time I've seen someone who can't even practice the skills properly!" "Even when I was teaching Qin Lan, it was never like this." "They really opened my eyes." Seeing that his master was furious, Jin Renfeng tried to persuade him. "Although Qin Lan is young, he is also a top genius who has inherited your cultivation talent." "With your guidance since childhood, even the descendants of ordinary noble families cannot compare to you." "Comparing Qin Lan with the other junior brothers and sisters is really too embarrassing." "Ren Feng, do you think our standards for accepting disciples are a bit low?" Dongfang Guyue frowned and said, "If we raise the talent requirements, will the situation improve?" "Master, what are you thinking about?" Jin Renfeng chuckled. "Our standards are no worse than those of the aristocratic families." "If we raise the bar any higher, I'm afraid no one will be able to pass the selection!" "But now these guys can't even understand the Pure Yang Heart Sutra. I don't think they will be able to achieve anything great in the future." Dongfang Guyue looked worried. "It would be better if——" "Master, educating people to become talents is not something that can be accomplished overnight." "Even I spent a month to master the Pure Yang Heart Sutra."
Jin Renfeng shook his head helplessly. He knew that his master was used to seeing geniuses like his two junior sisters Huaizhu and Qin Lan, so he was not used to the gap brought by being an ordinary disciple. "We must give our junior brothers and sisters some time!" "Besides, the Pure Yang Heart Sutra is a method you painstakingly created, it is not a simple technique." "It's normal that we don't know how to do this since we've just started." "You do have a point!" Dongfang Guyue sighed. "It's also because I care too much about this villa and I'm a little worried about gains and losses." The master and the disciple walked slowly, talking about everything at the villa.
