Chapter 37 Promoted to the Si Nong Temple, award: first-class first-class.
The sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, in the morning.
Sinong Hall notified that the disciples who participated in the promotion assessment from each workshop will gather at the Sinonong Hall.
Everyone knows that this is the announcement of the assessment results.
All the people hurried to the Si Nong Hall, gathered under the steps in front of the Si Nong Hall, and waited for the arrival of the deacon Kao Gong Si Wang.
A moment later, Deacon Wang came out of the main hall with several disciples in charge.
"Meet Deacon Wang."
Everyone hurriedly bowed to Deacon Wang.
"There is no need to be too polite."
Deacon Wang saluted seriously, then took out a scroll document, opened it with his hand, and announced to everyone.
"Decree from the Lord of the Palace: Here are Xu Ke and others who are disciples of the outer sects of each workshop. They are diligent in their work, practice hard, and have extraordinary qualifications. They have passed the examination of the merit examination department and will be promoted."
"Xu Ke from Hedongfang, Li Heng from Xishanfang, and Yang Cheng from Qinggangfang are among the top three. They were promoted to serve in the Temple of Si Nong, and awarded: First Class A."
"Zhang Chaoyi of Pingshanfang... ranks among the top ten, promoted to the Si Nong Temple, and conferred: First Class B."
"Du Mingsheng in Shigangfang...passed the examination and was promoted to the Si Nong Temple to serve as an officer. Award: First Class C."
"There is a saying in the real person in charge of teaching: If the sect wants to prosper, it should be based on talents. In all the workshops of the Sinong Temple, the promotion of talents should be the top priority, and we must not slack off."
"The above-mentioned promoted disciples shall be ordered to be announced in all workshops to commend them."
After the decree was announced, Xu Ke breathed a sigh of relief.
The promotion assessment went smoothly, and no "injustice" occurred.
It seems that Haoyang Xianzong is not as "dark" as I imagined, and those "plans" made before were completely useless.
Moreover, there is no quota limit for this promotion, as long as they meet the requirements, they will all be promoted smoothly.
After thinking about it, Xu Ke also understood.
For the Zongmen, low-level farming disciples are equivalent to "general workers", and the disciples in charge of the Si Nong Temple are equivalent to "technicians". The value they can create is completely different.
So, Zongmen certainly hopes that the more "technicians" the better.
"Follow the order of the Palace Master!"
When Xu Ke was distracted and thinking wildly, everyone bowed and saluted one after another, accepting the order of the palace master.
Fortunately, Xu Ke responded quickly, and bowed to accept orders with everyone.
"Congratulations everyone for successfully passing the assessment!"
After the decree was announced, a smile finally appeared on Deacon Wang's serious face, and he congratulated Xu Ke and the others.
"Thank you, Deacon Wang."
Everyone quickly returned the gift and thanked them.
"The Zongmen Grand Competition will be held on the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month. Xu Ke and the three of them need to report to Si Nong Hall on the eighth day of the eighth day, and participate in the Zongmen Grand Competition held on the ninth day of the lunar month. Others can wait until after the Zongmen Grand Competition and report on their own."
Subsequently, Deacon Wang announced the "report" time.
"yes!"
Everyone quickly took orders, and then dispersed.
The promotion assessment for the Hall of Si Nong is over. With the first result in the assessment, Xu Ke was successfully promoted to the executive disciple of the Si Nong Hall, and was awarded the first-class first class.
The whole process was much smoother than Xu Ke expected.
—
After the show ended, Xu Ke and Liu Yongtian met up and prepared to go back to the hall.
"Choo chirp!"
Seeing Xu Ke approaching, the purple skylark cheered, flapped its wings and landed on Xu Ke's shoulder, pecking Xu Ke's temple hair with its mouth, looking very intimate.
"Your purple skylark is pretty good. I haven't fed it for a whole day."
Fangzheng Liu Yongtian walked up with a smile.
"Fangzheng..."
Xu Ke stepped forward to say hello, and just called "Fangzheng" when he was interrupted by Liu Yongtian.
Liu Yongtian smiled, "You are also an in-service disciple of Si Nong Dian, and your status is the same as mine. It is more appropriate to be called senior brother."
"Okay, Senior Brother Liu."
Xu Ke didn't struggle too much with the address, and bowed his hands to Liu Yongtian, "I was taken care of by Brother Liu before, thank you very much."
"It's all your own ability, what should I take care of you?"
Liu Yongtian smiled and waved his hands, "There is no need to thank you. If you want to say thank you, I have to thank you!"
Seeing that Xu Ke was puzzled, Liu Yongtian explained: "There has been no promotion in Hedongfang for many years, and I was at the bottom every year in the examination of Sinong Hall. Not only did you get promoted smoothly this time, you also took the first place, awarded the first-class class A Wait. My assessment this year will take up all of your power."
"hehe!"
Xu Ke smiled, changed the subject, and asked Liu Yongtian: "Senior brother Liu, what's the situation with this award?"
"The disciples of Si Nong Hall are divided into nine levels, and each level is divided into three classes."
As Liu Yongtian walked, he explained to Xu Ke: "The first to third grades are junior executive disciples, the fourth to sixth grades are intermediate executive disciples, and the seventh to ninth grades are senior executive disciples. Different levels have different tasks that can be performed. It's completely different from the treatment you enjoy."
Oh, see, this is a "job title".
Xu Ke nodded, and asked again: "Then, what kind of affairs can I be in charge of, and what kind of treatment can I enjoy?"
"First Class A, it can only be said that the starting point is higher than others, but it is still a junior executive disciple."
Liu Yongtian replied with a smile: "You won the first-class class this time, and when you report to the Sinong Hall, you will have a reward. Other than that, you are just like everyone else."
Oh, I got it.
This is the same as getting the first place in the college entrance examination. After entering the university, you will be treated the same as other people.
Xu Ke smiled, and it would be nice to have a prize.
"By the way, you are going to report on the eighth day of the eighth day. Are you going back with me now, or are you staying here?"
Back to the guild hall, when entering the door, Liu Yongtian asked Xu Ke.
"Let's go back first!"
Of course Xu Ke wants to go back. In the "underground cave" at home, there are still thousands of catties, thousands of millet, all kinds of magic and skill secret books, and even the storage bag and the thunder cone magic weapon are hidden in it.
If you don’t go back, if someone finds out, isn’t it just giving people a chance?
"That's right! If you don't return home when you are rich, isn't it a night walk in brocade clothes?"
Liu Yongtian thought that Xu Ke wanted to go back and pretend to show off.
I really haven't thought about this aspect.
Xu Ke smiled and shook his head without explaining much.
It is only human nature to go back to the hometown to show off.
Liu Bang also wrote a poem specifically to show off when he went home, "The wind is blowing, the clouds are flying, Vega is at home, and I return to my hometown"!
—
The two of them went back together, much faster than when the large army was on their way.
Liu Yongtian's cultivation is not uncommon, he has already completed Qi training, and with decades of accumulation, there will naturally be no shortage of flying magic weapons.
After leaving Haoyang City, Liu Yongtian waved and released a flying boat magic weapon the size of a palm. Driven by spiritual power, the flying boat instantly soared to the size of ten feet.
"Wow...is this a flying magic weapon?"
Xu Ke's eyes are shining, this is the first time he has been in close contact with a flying magic weapon.
"It's just a flat boat."
Liu Yongtian smiled, "Don't be envious, you will have some in the future. Let's go!"
Immediately, the two jumped up and landed on the flying boat.
Entering the cabin, Liu Yongtian came to the cockpit of the bow, took out a middle-grade spirit stone, put it into the groove of a talisman array, and then shot a burst of spiritual power to activate the talisman array. The flying boat shook and roared through the air.
"This thing is convenient, but it's just... too expensive!"
Liu Yongtian held the rudder with his hand, turned his head and glanced at Xu Ke, "You need a middle-grade spirit stone to start it, and you will burn money once you use it!"
Oh, I understand this better!
I can afford a car, but I can't afford to burn oil, I understand it too well!
Xu Ke laughed dumbfounded.
