Chapter 7 An Fuqing
During dinner in the evening, Zhang Xiaolan was concerned about Chen Chu's practice today.
Including his younger brother Chen Hu, he was also a little curious.
It's just the first day of study, and he only learned the common foundation-building techniques, so Chen Chu just said a few words and ended the topic.
After dinner, Chen Chu took a shower and returned to the room, sat cross-legged on the bed and began to meditate.
As he closed his eyes and concentrated, the illusory lotus flower slowly appeared in his dark mind.
According to that post, the Yipin Lotus Meditation Method, when meditating on the lotus, is a process of constantly purifying and condensing spiritual power.
Condensing the loose and empty mental power of ordinary people into a 'real' existence that can weakly interfere with matter is the key to establishing the foundation for introducing Qi into the body.
As for what it means to introduce Qi into the body, I didn’t go into details. It’s just that when it comes to this step, the school teacher will naturally tell them.
The lotus has twelve petals. During the afternoon meditation class, Chen Chu spent half an hour condensing most of the petals.
At this time, as he practiced, the petals continued to become complete at a slow speed.
Phew!
More than half an hour later, Chen Chu slowly opened his eyes, looking a little tired, but with a look of satisfaction in his eyes, because he had fully realized a petal.
It’s just that the proficiency level only increased by 4 points this time, 1 point less than in the afternoon. I don’t know if it’s because it was my first time practicing with the help of meditation charts.
But at this rate, even if he gets 4 points at a time, if he practices twice a day, he is expected to break through in about ten days.
Furthermore, during this practice, the mental attributes increased by 0.1 again.
Next, Chen Chu practiced the Body Casting Art in the room again.
Although there is no light assistance from the Blood Essence Stone, there is an attribute page. Chen Chu can still keenly feel the faint energy and blood in his body when practicing the Body Casting Technique.
During the physical training, the mental power controls the flow of qi and blood to follow, and the physical fitness is strengthened in a subtle way. The first pass takes thirty-five minutes.
Then I practiced again, which took 30 minutes, and my proficiency was +2.
It’s just that this time the physical attributes only increased by 0.1, and the effect was less than half the improvement of the first round of qi and blood transfer in the afternoon.
After practicing twice in a row, Chen Chu couldn't stand it anymore. He felt exhausted, both physically and mentally.
Physique is still too bad, just transporting qi and blood for two rounds is not enough.
While sighing, Chen Chu drank some hot water, lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Chen Chu is very motivated for this kind of skill that can cultivate extraordinary power.
Even if it is a little slow at the beginning due to physical reasons, it doesn't matter. He has an attribute page that can fix his proficiency. If you work hard, you will be rewarded.
If it weren't for the fact that practicing once took a lot of energy and mind, and required a long rest to recover, he would have wished to practice twenty-four hours a day.
The next day, Chen Chu just walked into the classroom and saw everyone discussing cultivation matters.
Some people asked the other person how many petals they had meditated on, and some people were concerned about how to practice the Body Casting Technique to make it faster and longer. They felt that it was difficult to practice.
There are also a few girls who, judging from their complaints, are ready to give up cultivation.
They feel sore and tired every time after practicing. After meditating, they even feel stars in their eyes and feel nauseous. In this case, they obviously have no talent for cultivation.
Chen Chu came to his seat and sat down, and Xia Youhui in the front row came over: "A Chu, how is your progress in meditation and body casting?"
“It’s okay.” Chen Chu said casually.
Xia Youhui asked without giving up: "How much is it okay?"
"you guess."
"We are good brothers, and you actually asked me to guess that it was just the progress of the foundation-building technique." Xia Youhui looked distressed.
“You didn’t tell me either, why don’t you tell me how far you have come in cultivation?” Chen Chu was unmoved.
“There’s nothing that can’t be said about this.”
“I only practiced six times last night, and then I felt very tired and went to bed.”
…Chen Chu suddenly didn’t want to talk to this guy. The Casting Art can be carried twice in half an hour, which is equivalent to being able to practice it once in fifteen minutes, and it can be practiced six times in one go. The meditation method is also twice as fast as him.
Xia Youhui asked curiously: "Achu, what about you?"
"Much worse than you. The first petal of the meditation method takes 30 minutes to transport energy and blood." From Xia Youhui's progress, it can be seen that his progress is average, so Chen Chu did not hide it.
But after Chen Chu finished speaking, Xia Youhui was slightly startled: "That's not right. I remember A Chu that you barely completed one operation in almost an hour yesterday, right?"
“It should be because I was a bit unfamiliar with the first practice, but I became more proficient after the second practice at night.” Chen Chu said casually.
“…Is that so?” Xia Youhui nodded thoughtfully.
The morning's cultural class passed by in a flash.
At noon, Chen Chu took the food from the canteen and found a corner to sit down in the canteen. Before he could eat, Xia Youhui followed him excitedly.
Xia Youhui said excitedly: "Ah Chu, the rankings of the freshmen of the whole grade have been announced. What do you think the ranking of class monitor Lin Xue is?"
“Is there any ranking for this?” Chen Chu was a little confused.
He had heard about the rankings of college expenses, but he didn’t expect that after attending high school, and these talents came into contact with cultivation, there would be a ranking for freshmen.
“Achu, don’t underestimate this ranking.”
Xia Youhui shook his head: "We have more than 1,800 freshmen in Wuhan High School this year. All of them have practiced the foundation building method. Those who can stand out are geniuses."
“And the ranking only records the top 100, and it’s not easy to be on the list.”
“For example, An Fuqing from Class 1 has visualized eleven petals. He can carry the cast seven times in half an hour, ranking first.”
“I feel like she will be the first to successfully build a foundation in less than two days.”
“…Okay, I’m useless.” Chen Chu didn’t know what to say when he heard this exaggerated progress.
He barely managed one turn in half an hour, while others could turn seven in half an hour, and the idea of the lotus platform even manifested eleven petals.
This gap is so big that Chen Chu can't even get jealous.
Seeing that Chen Chu didn't speak for a while, Xia Youhui, who thought he had been hit, quickly comforted him: "Ah Chu, don't be discouraged, this is just building the foundation."
“Just because the foundation building skills are practiced quickly does not mean that they are highly compatible with the real martial arts skills.”
“Even if we are ten days and a half behind them in building the foundation this time, as long as the Zhenwu skills we practice are highly compatible, we will be able to catch up with them soon.”
“Zhenwu Kung Fu still has compatibility, what is that?” Chen Chu was a little surprised.
"Ahem... I actually don't know much about this. My brother mentioned it to me casually before."
Xia Youhui coughed dryly: "Guess how many names our squad leader Lin Xue has?"
“Hahahaha, you definitely can’t guess it.” Xia Youhui burst out laughing and said impatiently before Chen Chu could guess.
“Lin Xue is only 67, ranked 67th, it makes me laugh to death.”
“That woman was so proud yesterday. I thought her talent was exaggerated, but I didn’t expect she was only ranked 67th.”
“Hahahaha...Achu, you know, I laughed for a long time when I saw this ranking.”
Cough!
Chen Chu glanced at the girl who was walking behind him and suddenly stopped. Especially the girl's increasingly cold expression and her subtle change of subject.
"Xia Youhui, how do you know this? It seems that only I know about the progress of cultivation, and who ranked them?"
“Don’t you know?” Xia Youhui was stunned.
“The ranking of freshmen is posted on the school’s official website. Anyone who pays attention to the official website will know it.”
“As for their cultivation progress, they told themselves when others asked them in the morning. Someone specially compiled it and made a list.”
“Although this ranking is not very accurate and changes every day, it also illustrates their talent and potential, and many teachers are paying attention to it.”
After finishing speaking, Xia Youhui shrank his neck and said inexplicably: "Strange, why do I feel a little cold..."
