Chapter 1027: Chapter 658 Year-end Evaluation (Thanks to the Alliance Leader, Wind’s Chocolate) _2 Chapter 1027: Chapter 658 Year-end Evaluation (Thanks to the Alliance Leader, Wind’s Chocolate) _2 The Cultivation Elder nodded with satisfaction.
Mo Hua pondered for a mont before speaking softly,
“Elder, most cultivators in this world are just practicing Qi Refinent…”
The Cultivation Elder paused, his gaze carrying a aningful depth.
“Indeed.”
“Then they…”
“If they are stuck in Qi Refinent all their lives, their problem is mostly not their aptitude. The bottleneck in their cultivation has only one word…”
The Cultivation Elder said lightly, “Poverty.”
Mo Hua felt sowhat uncomfortable.
The Cultivation Elder looked at Mo Hua with a profound gaze, a hint of surprise that he himself hadn’t noticed appearing on his face.
Eventually, he managed to control his emotions and nodded slightly,
“Don’t think too much about it; you are just at the Foundation Establishnt level, just focus on your cultivation…”
“If your cultivation progress is slow and you end up repeating a grade, it wouldn’t necessarily an getting expelled, but it’s a bit embarrassing…”
Mo Hua nodded, then suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
Right, the Elder had reminded him…
Currently, among his fellow disciples, he was “Junior Brother.”
If he repeated a grade, he would have to address his current fellow disciples as “Senior Brother” and “Senior Sister!”
It ant dropping two junior ranks in hierarchy!
That won’t do!
Absolutely not!
Mo Hua’s face was serious.
He must speed up his cultivation, not to ntion, he absolutely must not repeat a grade!
Otherwise, he would lose the authority of being the “Junior Brother!”
The Cultivation Elder was taken aback; for so reason, Mo Hua suddenly seed highly motivated…
But that was a good thing.
He decided not to say anything more.
“However…”
The Cultivation Elder looked at Mo Hua again and sighed inwardly.
Core Formation is difficult…
The Spiritual Root really was too poor, it was uncertain whether he would be able to overco that threshold when the ti ca…
…
These things, Mo Hua was still unaware of.
Besides cultivation, in Alchemy, Artifact Refining, and Rune Refining, he was only graded “C”.
Nothing surprising there, he was stable.
From the instructors to his fellow disciples, and even Mo Hua himself, no one was surprised.
But Elder Yi, who taught Taoist Skills and knew Mo Hua better, said during a casual chat,
“I can also only give you a ‘C’…”
“I wanted to give you a higher grade, but I couldn’t…”
“It’s okay, it’s okay.”
Mo Hua reassured Elder Yi instead.
The grading of Taoist Skills is divided into three types: Spells, Martial Arts, and Swordsmanship.
As a disciple within the sect, mastering one of them suffices.
After all, genuine Dual Cultivation of Spirit and Body, including expertise in swordsmanship, even within the talent-rich Qianxue State Boundary, is incredibly rare and should not serve as a standard for ordinary cultivators.
Especially the likes of Mo Hua, a cultivator below such “standards.”
Elder Yi still felt regretful and said,
“You execute spells very well and use them proficiently. Your combat mindset is also far superior to ordinary cultivators…”
“But these things are not part of the rigid assessnt…”
“The assessnt of spells revolves primarily around the grade of your spells and the Cycles of spiritually powering the spell you manage…”
“So your situation is disadvantaged…”
“You don’t have any spells with significant power…”
Upon ntioning this, Elder Yi suddenly paused.
He rembered the day when Mo Hua had turned the Dao Room’s spell puppet to dust and severely injured himself with that unknown, trendously powerful fire spell…
Elder Yi frowned, thought for a mont, then shook his head.
That doesn’t count…
It wasn’t a stable spell, just sothing he managed to conjure by chance…
It can’t be used for assessnts.
With such a high risk of losing control, it can’t be used casually.
Mo Hua, this kid, probably wouldn’t dare to use it again… right?
Elder Yi looked at the lively and shrewd faced Mo Hua, and suddenly felt unsure.
“Mo Hua…”
Elder Yi hesitated for a long ti, then cautiously said,
“Don’t use that spell from last ti ever again, alright?”
“Mhm!”
Mo Hua nodded.
He would not use that last spell again.
But he had already improved a new version; in the future, he would use the new one instead.
…
Besides, there was another course he received a “C” in, and that was Tao Cultivation Techniques.
Formations, Pill, Artifact, Rune also falls under “Tao Cultivation Techniques.”
But because of their large scale, long tradition, deep legacy, and many practitioners, these are considered Visible Learning in Tao Cultivation and are separately classified into different subjects.
Besides Formations, Pill, Artifact, Rune, there are many Tao Cultivation skills.
These skills are either derived as offshoots from Formations, Pill, Artifact, Rune, or they relate to cultivators’ daily living, production, and combat, albeit with less esteed status among Tao Cultivation skills.
For instance, Spirit Plant cultivation, cuisine, blood extraction, mining, musical instrunt playing, Spiritual Dance, chess skills, architecture, etc…
Although outwardly everyone says Tao Cultivation Techniques are equally respected across all categories,
In reality, once it becos about social interactions, these naturally grade into different tiers.
Skills like musical instrunt playing, chess, and Spiritual Dance, which appear refined, are often held in higher esteem.
While labor-intensive skills like Spirit Plant cultivation, mining, and architecture are sowhat less favored.
The Sect doesn’t enforce strict rules.
Disciples can learn from any category as long as they are interested, at least to understand so theoretical aspects.
But when it cos to assessnts, focus is still on skills like musical instrunt playing, Spiritual Dance, chess, which are essential Tao Cultivation skills for disciples from major families in the future.
The areas Mo Hua is familiar with, such as Spirit Plant cultivation, mining, and architecture, are not counted towards assessnt scores in the Sect.
Especially cuisine.
Mo Hua’s mother, Liu Ruhua, was extrely skilled in cuisine.
Mo Hua had “inherited” this through bloodline.
While wandering, preparing the three daily als for his master, Old Kui, junior brothers, and junior sisters was his responsibility.
