The guard took the identity jade token, injected spiritual power and glanced at it. The image in the jade token was that of a one-armed monk with short hair and dark gray monk robes. The man in front of him was exactly the same as the image. The guard looked up at Qin Tiexin's face again, his eyes paused on the empty sleeve of his right shoulder for a moment, and then handed the jade token back.
"Come in."
It was faster than others. Qin Tiexin's identity jade tag recorded his appearance after his arm was broken off. The features were too obvious, so it would be troublesome to verify. In addition, the jade tag record showed that he had been active in the city for the past few days. He just returned to the city normally today, and the guard didn't even ask a question.
Qin Tiexin made a Buddhist salute with one hand raised up, passed through the city gate and entered the city.
It was just after noon, and the sun was high. Now that we were out, Qin Tiexin wanted to simply sign up to save us from having to make another trip in a few days.
The Star Selection registration office is located in the center of Cloud Ford Ward. It is a large three-story complex made of blue-gray strips of stone, which is a bit taller than the surrounding shops. In front of the building is a white jade stone tablet with the words "Star Selection Bureau" engraved on it.
Qin Tiexin When we arrived, the people at the door felt more crowded than at the city gate.
The first floor is the rest area, the door is open, and people are coming and going. Qin Tiexin walked in and took a look. There were dozens of benches in the hall, all of which were full. There were also many monks sitting cross-legged on the ground, leaning against the wall, sitting under the pillars, and nesting in the corners. They were all densely packed. In addition to the newspaper The famous monks, as well as the accompanying family members, and several clerks in the Star Selection Bureau uniforms walked back and forth in the hall to maintain order. There was also a small group of Rogue Cultivator watching the excitement standing in the corner, stretching their necks to look at the stairs on the second floor, but were waved away by a clerk.
Qin Tiexin walked to a small table at the door. There was a bamboo basket on the table. There were dozens of finger-sized jade pieces stacked in the basket. Each jade piece was engraved with a number. Sitting behind the table was a young civil servant Qi Refining Late Stage, who was writing something in a booklet with his head down.
Qin Tiexin walked to the table and put up a palm with one hand. "That's good, I'm a poor monk signing up."
The clerk looked up at him, took out a jade piece from the basket and handed it to him. "There are more than thirty people ahead, just wait. When the jade piece lights up, go up to the second floor. If it doesn't light up, don't go up. You will be kicked off if you go up. Find a place to sit, and squat if there is no seat."
Qin Tiexin took the jade piece and looked down at it.
The front of the jade piece was engraved with "Forty Seven", and on the back were several very thin lines of Spirit Rune. He looked at the jade pieces in the basket again, and there were only about ten jade pieces left. He was number 47. The people coming in from behind would probably be queued up to sixty.
He turned around and walked to the rest area. Along the way through the crowd, many people glanced at him, and stopped for a moment on the empty sleeve on his right shoulder before moving away. Even after Qin Tiexin's current figure was disguised, the magnanimity of the frame and Qi and Blood's exuberance could not be hidden. Several young monks sitting against the wall glanced at each other.
"Physical repair, Qi and Blood Realm's."
"He's still a warrior monk, but he's a one-armed one."
"I dare to come here with only one arm, I'm afraid I have real skills under my hands."
Qin Tiexin just pretended not to hear. He found an empty seat in the corner, sat cross-legged on the ground, placed the iron rod across his knees, took out the Jade Slip introduced by Star Selection from his arms, and continued to read.
Seven days after the end of Temperament Trial is the third level, Secret Realm Trial.
The ordinary Secret Realm Trial uses Myriad Stars Dynasty Golden Core A small secret realm opened by the monk himself, which contains some Demon Beast used for assessment and reward items. Every fifty years Star Selection, the secret realm is replaced by a natural secret realm, mostly cave abode left over by the predecessors after their incarnation or the remnant realms left by the extinct sects, which have basically not been explored.
The secret realm of Centennial Grand Star Selection is more Elder Gu, and the rewards will be richer, but it will also be more dangerous. The specific secret realm will not be announced until before the exam starts. Chen Xi is in There is a mark in Jade Slip: Secret Realm Trial is essentially a bonus level, with a lot of good stuff in it. Lucky candidates can increase their cultivation level after coming out, and some may even directly break through to a small level.
Secret Realm Trial The time is not fixed. Small secrets can be released in three to five days, but big ones are hard to say. The longest time in history was more than forty days. Qin Tiexin After seeing this, I figured it out, Temperament Trial ends in seven days, Secret Realm Trial may take more than a month, and comes out to rest for ten days, Skills Trial, Arena Trial, the entire Star Selection process will take at least two months to complete.
After coming out of the secret realm, there is usually a rest period of ten to fifteen days before entering the fourth level, Arts Trial.
This level tests four items: alchemy, weapon refining, formations, and talismans. Candidates can choose one of them. Senior monks will be invited to provide on-site guidance and commentary. You may not participate, but candidates who do not participate will not get points for this level.
Qin Tiexin frowned slightly when he saw this. It was hard to tell whether this was good news or bad news for him.
Myriad Stars Dynasty Weapon refiners are scarce, so it is relatively easy to get high scores for refining. As noted in Jade Slip, candidates who were able to refine Upper-Grade Law Artifact in previous years would basically get full marks at this level. His level of refining was already at Azure Xuan Region, and he could already refine Upper-Grade Law Artifact. If he used his full strength, his score at this level would be almost in vain.
But now only one left hand is left.
Refining weapons is different from boxing. For boxing, you can still punch with one hand, as long as you have enough strength. Refining weapons requires the cooperation of both hands, holding the materials with the left hand and forging with the right hand; controlling the fire with the left hand, and carving the formation with the right hand; stabilizing the weapon embryo with the left hand, and adjusting the Spirit Rune direction with the right hand. Every process requires the cooperation of two hands, and if one is missing, the other is missing. He is not sure whether he can refine weapons normally.
You have to find a weapon refining shop to try it out before starting Skills Trial.
He kept this in mind and continued reading.
After the end of Arts Trial comes Arena Trial. The last level is also the most direct level, which is combat. The monk's ability must ultimately be reflected in combat. This is the level with the highest score for Star Selection.
Monks who are not good at fighting can also choose to give up, but if they give up this level, they will basically miss the final ranking.
After all five levels are completed, Star Selection Bureau will be ranked based on the performance and scores of the previous levels, and rewards and duties will be allocated to the corresponding monks. The top ten will participate in the final palace examination and enter the palace.
As for the questions of the imperial examination, no one knows. Every imperial examination is set by the emperor or prince himself, so anything is possible.
Qin Tiexin read this paragraph twice.
Palace examination. Palace. As long as you enter the top ten, you will definitely be able to step into that door. As long as you enter that door, find a secret place to put down the beauty puppet, Chen Xi will be able to sense it and find a way to find the medical cultivator.
But Myriad Stars Dynasty's final work allocation is not entirely based on ranking.
Jade Slip gives an example: a monk with average combat ability but extremely strong alchemy skills may get a better position than a monk who is average in all aspects and has a higher total score. The official selection system of the Myriad Stars Dynasty has its own evaluation criteria, which is not a simple ranking of scores.
Even if a position is finally assigned, the candidate can still refuse. There was a monk who performed very well and passed the final palace examination, but refused the assigned position and was chosen as a son-in-law by a marquis. His future was actually better. However, this kind of thing is rare, so just treat it as an anecdote.
This is probably the entire content of the five levels of Star Selection. Chen Xi left a sentence at the end of Jade Slip: The specific assessment details will be slightly adjusted every year. At that time, the rules announced by the Star Selection Bureau will prevail. Just remember the above roughly.
