Mu Fan: "It feels so good not to be human!"
"Once you leave this place, you may not return."
"To advance to the next level, a certain amount of luck is required. Those who lack sufficient luck, or who are unwilling to do so, may choose to give up."
"If you wish to enter the main courtyard, please make your decision after entering the second floor, otherwise you will lose your opportunity."
At the entrance to the second level, there are huge, suspended characters in bright red, serving as a stark warning to everyone.
Before entering, Lu Changzhi already knew something about it; he glanced at it but didn't look at it again.
Luck and such are nothing to worry about; Ancestor Liang Si had already given me a token before I came.
In comparison, the reminder of the choice is more important.
This is another characteristic of the Academy in its Law Contemplation Gathering.
Everything requires making choices; consider your own circumstances and don't easily follow the crowd.
The first level right now is the most basic level.
The higher the level, the better, but that doesn't mean the most basic level is bad.
Even the insights into cultivation and the martial arts techniques passed down here would be extremely valuable to smaller forces in the outside world.
Furthermore, anyone who enters does not need to expend any luck and can stay here for a relatively long time.
If you decide to move to the second level, you will no longer be able to enjoy the relatively more comfortable conditions here.
The second tier has better overall resources, but if you choose to stay in the second tier, in terms of time alone, it is actually far less abundant than the first tier.
But there's one thing that's most easily overlooked.
The things on the second level are good, but that doesn't mean they will be easy to understand and practice.
If one's ability to comprehend and cultivate is insufficient, even when something is placed before them, they may very well pass by their mind without truly engaging with it.
However, if, as suggested, you immediately choose to enter the third level after entering the second level, the second level will serve as a transition or a test.
According to the information provided by Liang Si, the process of entering the second level from the first level will test one's ability to comprehend and cultivate, which will determine the difficulty of the second level's test.
The success of the second level's test will determine the amount of time you can gain upon entering the third level.
The more difficult the trials of the second level are, and the faster they are completed, the more time one will have to contemplate and cultivate in the third level.
They are interconnected and mutually influential.
There are quite a few people who come in without a clear goal from the start, and end up wasting their time and luck, only to gain nothing.
Lu Changzhi was well aware of his purpose in coming here.
First, ensure Xiao Ye's safety.
Although this was within the Academy's territory, and there were repeated orders prohibiting any fighting or other acts of mutual harm, the matter was still under control.
But even a cornered dog will jump over a wall, so how can we not be on guard?
Secondly, one could find a place to rest one's head.
In terms of spiritual practice, that's not the main goal.
"Let's go?" Lu Yuan looked at Lu Changzhi.
Lu Changzhi nodded.
Just as he was about to make a breakthrough, Lu Changzhi suddenly remembered something.
With a thought, the sign appeared in his palm, and then he poured his power into it and stepped forward.
Soon, the figures of the group appeared on the second floor.
Compared to the spaciousness of the first floor, the second floor is much smaller, and the space looks more like a serious and formal reading area.
At this moment, Luo Ling'er, who was standing to the side, suddenly spoke up:
"All of this looks so difficult for me to do."
Gu Chen nodded in agreement, his expression somewhat grave.
"Indeed, it's not simple."
Lu Yuan looked at Lu Changzhi with a hint of curiosity:
"Given your talent, what do you need to do to get into the main academy?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi smiled slightly and said:
"There's too much to do, so it's not convenient to explain it directly to my seniors."
Lu Yuan gave Lu Changzhi a deep look, but did not doubt Lu Changzhi's statement.
He understood that being smarter doesn't necessarily make things easier.
On the contrary, the smarter you are, the harder it is.
However, there are also advantages. The faster you do it, the higher the time limit for the third level will be, allowing you enough time to comprehend it.
For someone to have cultivated to this level at only eighteen years old and be able to do it so easily is truly unbelievable.
Lu Yuan did not ask any further questions.
Lu Changzhi then looked at Mu Fan.
Mu Fan wore a slightly surprised smile.
The two looked at each other, and then Mu Fan smiled and said:
"This inhuman feeling feels so good."
Lu Changzhi smiled as well.
He wasn't there to participate seriously.
What a coincidence, even at this point, the Nonhuman Plaque is still usable.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the idea of using Nonhuman Plaque itself exploits a loophole.
In short, he didn't act like a human being; he just walked in like that.
There is no question of a test at the moment.
I asked Gu Chen and Luo Ling'er.
The core of this test lies in the ability to comprehend and the speed at which one can learn and master the skills.
Each one is tailor-made, and the level of difficulty varies from person to person; there is no standard for measurement.
Lu Changzhi looked around and quickly spotted Xiao Ye.
Those who fail the test cannot enter the main academy.
Therefore, the second floor was not as noisy as the first floor, and most of the people present were busy.
"Are there enough Dao Comprehension Tea and tea eggs?"
Lu Changzhi's voice rang in Xiao Ye's ears.
"Don't worry, Master, that's enough," Xiao Ye quickly replied.
"That's good, no need to be frugal."
After giving him a word of advice, Lu Changzhi did not disturb Xiao Ye any further.
After everyone was allowed to enter.
The outside world, from all sides, is waiting.
In fact, although anyone can enter the Law Contemplation Gathering, those who have reached the Late Saint King Realm or above generally do not participate in it.
The Saint Realm is equivalent to the initial contact with the laws of heaven and earth, with limited understanding. In the third level, one can use it to comprehend cultivation and enhance mastery of the methods one cultivates and excels at.
Upon reaching the Saint King Realm, one has already gained a grasp of most of the laws of heaven and earth that one is close to.
The same is true for those at the Saint Venerable Realm, who have already gained a relatively complete understanding and mastery of the laws of heaven and earth. The cultivation methods of others can at most provide some reference, but the actual help they provide is very small.
In addition, there is another factor.
The ability to comprehend things inevitably declines with age, just as the pace of spiritual practice slows down with age.
Given their current level of cultivation, entering the inner sanctum actually takes them significantly longer to reach the third level, far surpassing the experience of younger cultivators.
Knowing the reason is one thing, but it still affects one's reputation.
Therefore, most of the powerful figures from various factions are present.
However, there are exceptions. For example, Long Miao, the chieftain of the Sea Race, although he was at the Saint Venerable Realm, also entered the cave to observe the cultivation and enlightenment of Human Race experts in the way of water, thereby improving himself.
Of course, such cases are always in the minority.
At this moment, most people were waiting for the first person to enter the main courtyard.
The condition of the main hall can be seen from the outside, and that's what deserves the most attention.
Being the first to enter the main courtyard is enough to prove one's extraordinary ability in comprehension and cultivation.
