Continuously devouring this cool energy, the eagle’s body is slowly enlarging.
Once the transformation is complete, its size has increased by one-third, and its feathers are more brilliant than before.
Previously indistinct details like feather patterns and claw wrinkles also beca clearer.
Reflecting upon Lou Yi, his eyes are brighter, his mind more agile, and his five senses increasingly sharp.
Even the speed of True Strength circulation within his body has accelerated slightly under the influence of enhanced Divine Sense.
’Previously, practicing Martial Arts could enhance the physical body, now practicing Magic can enhance Divine Sense?’
’I didn’t feel it before, perhaps because the Rain Technique is too low-level, the feedback wasn’t obvious.’
’Flesh nourishes the spirit, and spirit likewise can feed back to flesh, the two complent each other.
It seems there’s still much to explore on the Martial Artist’s path.’
Lou Yi faintly feels he’s found a path. But this path remains vague, with an uncertain future ahead.
Nevertheless, with the Attribute Panel, he has confidence to refine and pursue this path.
...
In a flash, ten days later.
Under Wei Jian’s leadership, the quarterly assessnt for over a hundred newcors is about to begin.
The newcor assessnt is mainly divided into four categories:
Field harvest, Spiritual Power test, Lifebound Corpse control, and Magic mastery.
The Spiritual Power test occupies forty percent of the score, while the other three items each account for twenty percent, overseen by Stewards from the Law Enforcent Hall of Feishi Peak for monitoring and scoring.
Among them, the field harvest assessnt is placed first, as the initial item.
However, it must also be arranged according to the disciples’ actual circumstances.
Those like Lou Yi, with relatively poor Spirit Roots, are assigned to farming, so what’s tested is field harvest.
A single Steward is responsible for evaluation, without requiring the corresponding disciple to be present on site.
While You Qingyi and Wang Wenbai, who have other arrangents, are tested on other items.
For the latter three assessnts, everyone is consistent.
All disciples will be gathered in one place to undergo individual onsite testing.
The Spiritual Power test assesses the disciples’ cultivation, specifically how much total Spiritual Power they’ve absorbed over three months.
This is also equivalent to evaluating cultivation progress, and those with exceptional Spirit Roots have a significant advantage.
Lifebound Corpse control tests the disciples’ level of synergy with their Lifebound Corpse.
The greater the synergy with their Lifebound Corpse, the stronger the Lifebound Corpse is, and the higher its future potential.
The Lifebound Corpse can assist in cultivation and subsequently help make cultivators battle-worthy, providing close protection for the owner’s fragile body. Its importance to every disciple in the Corpse-Driving Sect is self-evident.
Magic mastery assesses the disciples’ proficiency in spiritual techniques.
Though Cultivators prioritize cultivation, Magic is a ans of confronting opponents and must not be neglected.
Since many disciples have only learned the Rain Technique, the Magic assessnt aligns with this spell.
"Steward Kong, out of the original 168 disciples I led this period, thirteen failed to sense the Spiritual Qi and were expelled from the sect.
The remaining 155 are staying at the outer sect. Most of the Spirit Fields they farm lie within the A5 to B9 zones; this is the A5 zone..."
A male disciple clad in a light blue Daoist Robe, who looks tall and slender with small eyes, is at the forefront, introducing sothing.
It is indeed Wei Jian, the leader of Lou Yi and You Qingyi’s batch of disciples.
He is currently walking along the pathway between Spirit Fields.
On both sides, large stretches of lush green Spirit Rice exude a fragrance of plants, invigorating the senses.
Behind Wei Jian, there are also four n of varying ages.
The leading one appears to be in his forties, dressed in the unified red Steward attire of the Corpse-Driving Sect.
He has a lean appearance, with a pale complexion, hands clasped behind his back, exuding an air of distinctiveness.
Beside him are three young n similarly dressed in light blue Daoist Robes.
One holds a paper docunt, another cradles a White Jade Docunt, and the other tightly grips a crystal-clear stone shaped like a goose egg.
They stop in front of a section of field.
The young male cultivator holding the paper docunt takes a glance, then says, "Zone A6, Lu Ziyun, the field he planted is here."
In front of them, the Spirit Field covers approximately an acre, with Spirit Rice reaching three to four feet high, and the grains on the ears of rice nearly all plump.
One can imagine that the scene when matured in a few months must be a harvest.
Wei Jian also confidently smiles, "I know this Lu Ziyun; though his Spirit Root is of lower grade, he’s not far from the Middle Grade.
Moreover, he is persevering and conscientious. His achievents in the future may not necessarily be worse than those with Middle Grade Spirit Roots."
However, Steward Kong, in red robes, circles around nearby, occasionally peeling off rice ears for inspection, his brow furrows, "I observed quite several spots where Spirit plants are obviously missing, could they have grown poorly and were forcibly pulled out?
These pulled ones are not a small number, at least dozens, possibly hundreds.
This originally harvestable Spirit Rice will naturally diminish later on."
Steward Kong shakes his head, "Cheating won’t do any good. But considering most growth is good, let’s rate it as B-middle."
Upon hearing this, Wei Jian’s smile freezes.
However, the individuals behind Steward Kong all react differently.
The male disciple with the paper docunt retrieves a black brush from his chest pocket and writes a large ’B-middle’ next to a na in the booklet.
The one with the White Jade Docunt activates a slight circulation of Spiritual Power, displaying Lu Ziyun’s na on the docunt.
He uses his finger as a pen and writes ’B-middle’ next to the na as well.
It appears this White Jade Docunt has touchscreen functionality.
The one holding the crystal-clear goose egg stone positions the stone against his chest.
A flash of white light is seen.
In the center of the goose egg stone appears a miniature projection of the Spirit Field, serving as ’photographic evidence.’
"Let’s proceed to the next location," Steward Kong says indifferently.
"Understood."
Wei Jian doesn’t dare rebuke, so he must lead the group to proceed to the next disciple’s Spirit Field location.
Of course, internal grumbling is inevitable.
’This guy Kong is too harsh. What’s the harm in yanking so poorly grown plants? Nitpicking, truly nitpicking!’
"This affects my contribution; the better this batch of disciples’ grades are, the higher my contribution."
"Could it be Elder Chen’s faction sent soone to deliberately make feel uneasy since I didn’t choose him as a ntor? I hear he’s notoriously big-hearted..."
At the next few fields, as Steward Kong continues to score and evaluate, Wei Jian’s expression becos increasingly grim.
"Spirit Rice grows unevenly, indicating improper Rain Technique application, B-lower."
"Hmm, why are there so many bugs, and weeds are so abundant, C-middle!"
"Harvest is diocre, neither outstanding nor lacking, B-middle."
After nearly all the fields are graded, there is not a single A-grade, and even B-high is scarce.
Wei Jian harbors intense resentnt, unwilling to speak much.
