A new world for a hundred generations

Two months passed by in a blink of an eye.

After dividing the scope based on assessment, the school Yun Ye needs to go to is completely different.

Not only was the Yangqi Hall where the main class was held changed to a larger one, but the number of students also changed, increasing to more than fifty.

This time I was lucky. I was assigned to the same Qi Yang Hall as Wang Yao, which was also named C Qi Yang Hall, but with the prefix of "Second Examination" added.

With the distance getting closer, Yun Ye and Wang Yao can do more things. Competing with each other in Tiger Fist and discussing Qi nourishing techniques are common things. They hope to speed up their practice through this method.

Unfortunately, by themselves, they have achieved little, far less than the guidance of famous teachers.

However, the number of people in Yangqi Hall increased, and these teachers all had their own tendencies. They did not pay extra attention to Yun Ye and Wang Yao, and their guidance was very careless and of little significance.

And those who are truly geniuses, and even those who are rich, are given individual guidance and make rapid progress, further widening the gap.

This is even when Yun Ye and Wang Yao were not targeted, those geniuses who refused to accept weakness, these stakeholders simply refused to point out, and even deliberately pointed out the wrong ones, which is very scary...

After two months, Yun Ye's qi nourishing technique has made great progress, and has entered the middle stage from the early stage of foundation. At this rate, I am afraid that he will be able to cultivate his qi to a small extent in one or two years and have the opportunity to awaken his spiritual roots.

But he also discovered a problem.

The main lesson is the art of nourishing Qi.

Secondary course, Tiger Boxing.

The second lesson is about demon knowledge and spiritual practice knowledge.

The amount of study in the second stage of the Xian Xuetang exam was very large, and it was beginning to exceed Yun Ye's ability to bear.

The more time you spend practicing Qi nourishing, the other aspects will fall behind.

Three meals a day of D-level quality food are equivalent to him having to practice Qi-nourishing techniques at least fifteen times.

This is not a small amount, it will take Yun Ye three hours.

In fact, Yun Ye not only eats D-grade food for three meals a day, but also has a C-grade meal.

He spends at least four hours a day practicing Qi nourishing techniques.

In addition, there are tiger fists and various knowledge to master, and Yun Ye's time is starting to run out.

"Is there any way to improve the efficiency of the Qi Nourishing Technique..."

Yun Ye started to figure it out.

Yangqi Hall specializes in teaching the art of nourishing qi.

The higher the level of mastery, the better the effect. Generally speaking, mastery is divided into five levels: entry, proficiency, minor success, great success, and perfection.

At present, he is only at a proficiency level, and theoretically there is still a lot of room for improvement.

But this is only in theory.

Anyone who has focused on a certain skill for more than ten years understands that the fastest progress is made in the early stages of learning, and the slower it gets in the later stages, it is all a matter of time and effort, or even stuck.

Although the art of nourishing qi is not very complicated, it took Yun Ye a month to get started and a year to become proficient.

If you want to enter the stage of success, I am afraid it will take at least five years to slowly improve and carve this skill into the bone marrow.

But such a long time obviously cannot solve Yun Ye's dilemma.

There is no doubt that Qi nourishing techniques also have levels.

Just like the internal skills in martial arts novels, the effects of peerless magical skills and ordinary martial arts are completely different.

As a teacher of Qi-nourishing techniques, Yu Yu also mentioned other Qi-nourishing techniques.

If the Qi nourishing technique taught by the government is the foundation, then the stronger Qi nourishing technique is the secret teaching.

The secret Qi nourishing techniques of all families are developed bit by bit on the basis of Qi nourishing techniques.

Essentially, this is still the same technique, but it is easier to learn and reach a higher level.

It is equivalent to sorting out the originally scattered knowledge into a knowledge tree, which improves learning efficiency.

In other words, any proficiency in Qi nourishing techniques is universal.

As long as you get it, you will most likely be able to get started immediately.

It is this universality that makes the secrets extremely valuable, and basically no one will leak the secrets.

As a teacher of Qi Nourishing Technique, Yu Yu actually mastered the secret teaching, which is why he was chosen as the teacher.

Theoretically, if he had no reservations, the student would be able to make rapid progress without learning the secret Qi nourishing technique.

But Yu Yu is from a noble family, and it is impossible to teach a commoner wholeheartedly. After a year, Yun Ye has only just mastered the "proficient" state of Qi nourishing technique.

Yun Ye felt that there was no way to show the school. If he wanted to get the secret, he could only use other methods.

Or, do your own research.

Both paths are nearly impossible.

Given how conservative this world is about secrets, Yun Ye cannot buy the secrets with money. He can only use his strength to rob them, or make great contributions to the aristocratic family or the government, and they will award them.

Yun Yeyi has no strength, and the second person has just started practicing, so it is impossible to make meritorious deeds.

The second way, to do your own research, is even more difficult.

Baishi Town has existed for at least hundreds of years and has gone through more than a dozen generations, but there are still only a few famous families.

Obviously, this is not something that can be accomplished in just a few generations, even if one is extremely talented.

But after thinking about it, Yun Ye felt that he was the only one who could do his research. His time was the least valuable. If one life failed, there would be a second life. Accumulating as much as possible was the right way to go.

Thoughts come through.

Yun Ye was completely relieved and no longer thought about how to get more points in the exam, but concentrated on learning various knowledge.

It was at this time that Yun Ye discovered the role of the major classes in Xian Academy.

The second class is where practical techniques are directly taught.

Classification of herbal medicines, refining of ores, and even medical instruments are taught, but these things are not for people who are spiritual root revivers at all, so no one pays attention to them.

Yun Ye found that most of the students in the second class were fifteen or sixteen years old, which surprised Yun Ye. Isn't this the sprint stage? Why are they still here?

But on second thought, maybe it is the final stage, knowing that there is no hope for their spiritual roots to revive, so they come to learn these practical techniques to make a living, isn't it a waste?

And the actual situation quickly became clear after Yun Ye quietly inquired.

It turned out that the students in the second class were not only practitioners, but even most of the learners were ordinary people without qualifications. They were apprentices in the logistics department of the government...

They could also be said to be servants passed down from generation to generation.

Their life was to learn technology, then serve the government, practitioners, and finally have children and repeat the cycle.

Yun Ye was no longer surprised, and quietly integrated into it, absorbing all the knowledge he needed.

...

If you want to study the art of nourishing qi, you must first understand the operating principle of the art of nourishing qi.

In this world, almost everyone knows the fact, but not the reason, and has not studied it specifically. It all depends on the genius to make improvements.

But the situation is obviously different for Yun Ye. His creativity is insufficient and he cannot open up a new path.

But the systematic analysis of existing things still made him discover something that most people cannot discover.

That is the role of the formula.

The art of nourishing qi must be accompanied by the formula. Although it is enough to recite silently, it is absolutely impossible without it.

The content of the formula generally describes that qi is extracted from the whole body, gathered in the chest, and does not dissipate for a long time, and finally preserves the life energy to make the body gradually stronger.

This sounds a bit like... hypnosis? Self-suggestion?

Yun Ye, who was interested, immediately began to experiment.

First, he did not think about the formula and simply practiced the art of nourishing qi.

Unlike the art of nourishing qi with formulas, the simple action only made Yun Ye sweat profusely, and almost no qi was extracted.

This is a art of nourishing qi that has not even been achieved. As in the past experience, it has no effect.

Then, Yun Ye practiced the normal art of nourishing qi again.

But unlike the complete practice, Yun Ye carefully experienced the changes in his body when he silently recited the formula this time.

As a result, due to distraction, the effect of the Qi-nourishing Technique was greatly reduced, and only about 40% of the normal Qi was cultivated.

In the end, Yun Ye did not chant the formula, but directly imagined that the Qi was extracted and practiced the movements.

The result was very interesting. This time, the Qi-nourishing Technique was not ineffective, but the effect was greatly reduced, with an efficiency of only about 10%, which was lower than the distraction effect when chanting the formula.

After that, Yun Ye practiced the Qi-nourishing Technique through imagination many times. What surprised him was that as he became more proficient, the efficiency of practice increased rapidly, and soon reached 80% of the normal practice effect, and there was even room for improvement.

This situation further enriched Yun Ye's understanding of "cultivation".

As far as Yun Ye felt, practicing the Qi-nourishing Technique through imagination was actually more difficult than silently reciting the formula.

And directly reciting the formula was even simpler than silently reciting it.

The reason why he could quickly reach the level of the normal formula practice method through imagination practice was that he had memorized the movements firmly, was extremely proficient, and could use all his mind on imagination.

If you are a beginner, it is difficult to imagine a real object in your mind even if there are no other movements.

The imagination training method is not just a rough idea. It requires a very real understanding of the feeling of qi and the feeling of qi being refined. This requires long-term practice to improve.

Once completed, the gain is indeed far beyond Yun Ye's imagination.

The 100% threshold was quickly crossed.

It was just a start-up. After a month of improvement by Yun Ye, the effect reached 150%!

Yun Ye vaguely felt that the so-called secret qi-cultivation technique is actually from simple to difficult, to build a more three-dimensional and clearer cultivation process, rather than always using the same set of auxiliary formulas.

If you don't understand this, the qi-cultivation technique will probably stay at a low level forever, and it will be difficult to achieve great success, let alone perfection.

Compared with the excavation of the imagination method, Yun Ye has no way to start with the body-cultivation movements, and his accumulation is not enough for him to improve the movements.

Basically, if you make any changes, the efficiency of the entire qi-cultivation technique will drop drastically. Simply enumerating is a complete waste of time.

As for the modification of the movements, let’s wait until he has a good understanding of the cultivation system of this world.

The teachers in Xianxuetang all have the ability to modify the movements of the Qi-nourishing Technique. When they give instructions, they will modify the movements according to individual circumstances. If it’s just one or two, it’s okay, probably because they are gifted.

But if all of them have it, I’m afraid it’s some kind of common sense, but Yun Ye is not at that level and can’t understand it.
