The sky was blue and clear, as if it had been washed.
The sun was golden.
White clouds floated, and a group of colorful parrots chirped, forming an arrow formation under the blue sky and white clouds, flapping their wings and soaring.
These colorful parrots only appeared in large groups in spring. Their feathers were colorful, and they were the size of eagles. Their heads and beaks were like parrots, and their tails were like a peacock's, dragging long.
It had been more than ten days since Fang Yuan won first place in the test to refine his vital Gu.
The spring breeze blew the green grass on the mountain, the wildflowers bloomed, and the bees and butterflies danced around. It was a beautiful scene of spring, full of vitality.
The atmosphere of spring was so strong that even the tall bamboo walls around the training field could not cover it.
The training field covered an area of three acres. The ground was flat, paved with a thick and wide layer of limestone. The surroundings were transplanted with green spear bamboos. These dark green bamboos were close to each other, straight and straight, forming a circle of tall green walls.
Although the corners of the walls were also paved with stone bricks, many places had already sprouted grass. Between the bamboos, there were wild roses that drilled in from the outside, and even climbed up the walls.
Fifty-seven fifteen-year-old youths stood in the middle of the training field, forming a semicircle, watching the academy elder in the center.
This was a lesson to teach the youths how to use the Moonlight Gu.
"The Moonlight Gu is the signature Gu of our Guyue clan, just like the Xiong family's Bear Power Gu and the Bai family's Stream Gu. Most of the people here have chosen the Moonlight Gu as their vital Gu. Watch carefully, I will personally demonstrate how to activate the Moonlight Gu to attack. Students whose vital Gu is not the Moonlight Gu, you must also focus. This classic long-range attack method can be used on other Gu, and has a wide range of applications. "
As he spoke, the academy elder stretched out his right hand, spreading his fingers and lowering his palm so that the youths could see his palm.
"First, use your mind to move the Moonlight Gu into your own palm." As he spoke, the crescent mark that represented the Moonlight Gu moved along the elder's arm to his palm.
"Then, move the primeval essence in your aperture and pour it into the Moonlight Gu." A trace of silver-colored primeval essence gushed out of the elder's body, almost imperceptibly, and entered the Moonlight Gu in his palm.
The academy elder was a Rank three Gu Master, and only a Rank three Gu Master could condense a silver luster of primeval essence.
A Rank one Gu Master's primeval essence was called bronze primeval essence, while a Rank two Gu Master's was called red steel primeval essence. Only at the third rank would it be silver primeval essence.
After absorbing this sliver of silver true essence, the crescent moon mark in the center of the elder's hand immediately became brighter and brighter. Even though it was daytime, it still emitted a bright pale blue radiance.
"Amazing!"
"So beautiful." The youths couldn't help but exclaim in amazement when they saw this scene.
The pale blue light, as clear as water, flickered faintly in the elder's hand. At first glance, it was as if the academy elder was holding a handful of moonlight in his hand.
The academy elder smiled. "Watch carefully. The last step is to shoot it out like I did."
As he spoke, he slowly closed his spread fingers, then raised his arm and slowly straightened it. Finally, he waved his palm lightly.
His movements were steady and powerful.
Whoosh.
The youths heard a light sound in their ears.
Following the academy elder's movement, the pale blue light condensed on his palm was thrown out just like that.
The light formed a small moonblade in the air. The pale blue moonblade was only the size of a palm, just like the crescent moon in the night sky. It drew a straight line in the air, and then hit a grass puppet ten meters away.
With a swish, the grass puppet's thirty centimeter thick neck was cut off by the moonblade. The puppet's body swayed, and its huge head fell to the ground.
After cutting off the grass puppet, the moonblade immediately dimmed. However, it still flew for another six meters in the air before the crescent moon gradually faded away, finally dissipating into the air.
Looking at the grass puppet's neck, the cut surface was extremely smooth, as if it had been cut with the sharpest sickle.
Almost all the youths stared with their eyes wide open, looking at this scene in shock. A few of them couldn't help but touch their own necks, shocked by the moonblade's attack power.
After a short period of silence, exclamations came again and again. Some of the youths' eyes lit up, staring at the grass puppet. Some stared at the academy elder's palm. There were also some who whispered to each other, discussing excitedly.
Only Fang Yuan was hidden in the crowd, his expression cold and indifferent, not moving at all.
In his previous life, his cultivation had reached Rank six, and he founded the Blood Wing Demon Sect in the Central Continent, with tens of thousands of followers. He was known as the Big Shot of the Demonic Path, and his reputation was illustrious.
The academy elder was only a Rank three Gu Master, and this method was child's play. It would not cause a ripple in Fang Yuan's heart.
"Next, as long as you have successfully refined the Moonlight Gu, step forward. Each of you will have a grass puppet. Follow my method just now, activate the moonblade and practice attacking. "
Just as the academy elder finished speaking, more than thirty youths stood up.
This year, the entire clan had more than a hundred youths participating in the Awakening Ceremony. There were fifty-seven students who had the talent to cultivate. Among them, thirty-five chose the Moonlight Gu. After these days of hard work, they had all refined the Moonlight Gu.
The rest of the youths were all D grade talents. It was not that they did not want to refine the Moonlight Gu, but their talent was not good enough, so they could only retreat.
To the Guyue clan youths, the Moonlight Gu was no longer a simple Gu worm, but a symbol of the clan's glory.
Soon, thirty-five youths stood in a row. Ten meters away from each of them, there was a grass puppet erected in front of them.
Fang Yuan stood in the middle of the line, not attracting attention.
Practice began.
The youths all stretched out their right hands, transferring the Moonlight Gu into their palms. The blue crescent moon imprints, with the injection of bronze colored primeval essence, emitted aqua blue radiance one by one.
But when they cut in the air with their palms, only seven or eight crescent moons flew out. Some of these crescent moons only appeared for a moment, then quickly dissipated. Some just flew out two or three meters, and suddenly with a bang, collapsed into blue flowing light. Some flew far, but the direction was off, directly flying into the sky.
The youths all frowned. Watching the elder's demonstration just now, it seemed quite simple. But when they personally tried it out, they realized the knack within. To send out a moonblade and hit the grass puppet at the same time, it was really not easy.
The elder watched with a slight smile. He saw this scene every year, so he was not surprised.
The remaining 22 youths could only stand outside the field, watching enviously.
After practicing for five minutes, the youths were gradually able to send out the moonblade. For a moment, the sky above the martial arts field was filled with light blue moonblades flying everywhere.
Some of the moonblades dissipated halfway, some unfortunately collided with each other, and some flew out of the field, slanted and disorderly. Only a few moonblades were able to hit the grass puppet. Of course, this was a case of a blind cat running into a dead mouse.
The academy elder began to conduct individual tutoring.
He focused on Fangzheng, Mobei, and Chicheng, these outstanding students, patiently correcting their mistakes in postures and teaching them his own insights. As for C grade students like Fang Yuan, he only gave a few words of advice.
Fang Yuan had been condensing the blue light in his hand. He waved his palm a few times in the air, but he condensed it and did not release it. Seeing that the field was chaotic and no one was paying attention to him, he moved his mind and loosened his control of the Moonlight Gu. His palm tilted slightly, making a palm knife slashing action.
In order not to attract attention, he did not aim at the grass puppet opposite him, but instead aimed at the one in front of him on the left.
With a swoosh, a moonblade flew out quickly, passing through the chaotic area in the center, drawing a straight line in the air, accurately hitting the neck of the grass puppet.
The grass puppet trembled, its neck was cut in half by the moonblade, but soon the green grass stalk that was cut began to grow again, tangling together, and the wound healed.
This grass puppet, of course, was not an ordinary grass puppet, but a Rank one Grass Puppet Gu. It had a slight self-healing ability of the plant attribute.
Unless the grass puppet was cut in half, the wound would heal after a while.
"Wow, look at this moonblade!"
"Amazing, who sent it?"
There were very few moonblades that could hit the grass puppet. Fang Yuan had only casually attacked, but it had created the most obvious attack effect so far. It immediately caused the students outside the field to exclaim in surprise.
Even the academy elder's attention was attracted. He asked, "That moonblade just now was not bad. Did you send it?"
He looked at a C grade student with a questioning gaze. Because that puppet corresponded to him.
This male student blinked his eyes. Facing the sudden stares of the crowd, he seemed to be at a loss of what to do. To be honest, the scene was too chaotic just now. Moonblades were flying everywhere, and he did not know if he was the one who sent it.
"But, it looks like it's possible, right?" The young man thought and nodded subconsciously.
The surrounding students suddenly had a whole new level of respect for him.
"Who is he? What's his name?" Some of the female students asked the people around them.
"Even he can send moonblades, I can't lose!" Guyue Mobei's eyes flashed with determination.
"So it wasn't brother who sent it." Guyue Fangzheng let out a sigh of relief. After being comforted by his aunt and uncle, he had already recovered from the previous shock.
"Brother, you got first last time because you were lucky and chose a weak-willed Moonlight Gu. A Gu Master's cultivation cannot always rely on luck. I will win against you. "Fangzheng encouraged himself in his heart.
"You did well. Continue to work hard and grasp that feeling just now." The academy elder patted the student's shoulder and encouraged him with a smile.
The young man nodded his head excitedly, his eyes shining with a different light.
The elder took the opportunity to announce, "Listen up, this is your homework. Practice well after class, and we will check the results in three days. Whoever has the best results will get ten Yuan stones as a reward. Do you all hear me? "
"Oh!" The students shouted in response. Hearing that there would be Yuan stones as a reward, they could not help but get even more excited.
However, after just three minutes, the moonblades flying in the air gradually became sparse.
"Damn it, every moonblade consumes ten percent of my primeval essence."
"The consumption of the moonblade is too high. I am only a C grade, and my aperture can only store 38 percent of green copper primeval essence. I can only send out three moonblades in a row. "
The youths who stopped all sighed in despair.
The academy elder witnessed all this and did not say anything, but he sighed in his heart, "This is the benefit of having a high cultivation talent. To use the moonblade, there are only two words – practice makes perfect. Those with high talent have more primeval essence in their aperture, and their primeval essence recovers faster, giving them more opportunities to practice. Those with low talent can use Yuan stones to make up for it and increase the amount of practice. Those without high talent and without Yuan stones, even if they want to practice, they will not have the strength. Sigh, a Gu Master's cultivation is so cruel. I better take care of those students with high talent. "
