Master Zhang did not draw a conclusion immediately, but pondered for a moment before saying, "Is it a shock...it's like your style just now."

"Tsk tsk, it's such a rare mind." Wang Renzhi, who had never even bothered to report his name before, seemed to be in a state of interest. "Hey, I said, you should just change your career and stop being a alchemist. I heard that the materials for shock techniques are hard to find. You can't rely on a wooden sword to subdue demons and eliminate demons, right? Being an escort or coach may be more suitable for you."

"You're too much of it. Qingshan Town Shikao thanks to Xia Fancai--" Luo You'er suddenly seemed to remember something and reached out to cover her mouth.

"Excessive?" Wang Renzhi shrugged, "We are a team that wants to act together. There is a drag on the team for everyone. As for the taxi exam you mentioned, I don't think it is a basis for you - no matter how many exam rooms are there, just hundreds of candidates participating together, why can we think it is a credit for one person? Without him, there will be even a qualified person in Qingshan Town's Taxi exam?"

"Woo..." Luo You'er could not refute for a moment.

"But if You're up, I don't have to kick him out of the team," Wang Renzhi sighed lightly, "After all, I'm a person who wants to do big things, at most I'll just work harder for myself."

"Then you should work harder." Luo You'er replied almost without hesitation.

This time it was Wang Renzhi's turn to be shocked.

Xia Fan, the person involved, couldn't help but feel a little moved. He thought the little girl had been rejecting him, but he didn't expect that one day he would speak for him, and he would refute the face of a handsome guy.

There is nothing more comfortable than seeing a person who looks better than you.

At this time, Luo You'er turned her head and quietly made a gesture of twitching at him.

What does this mean?

Xia Fan thought about it for a long time and almost sprayed out the water.

Could she be a simulated crab and remind herself to use fried crabs to repay them?

"Teacher," Yue Feng suddenly spoke, "Since you said that the mind and nature are acquired, can this hexagram be changed artificially?

"Hahaha... a good question." Master Zhang stroked his sharp beard. "In fact, the Privy Council once conducted a detailed experiment to prove the shaping nature of the mind. Simply put, it was to train ten children of the same hexagram in two groups, one group without worries about food and clothing, and the other group was free to stock on the streets. In the end, the hexagram of three people did change. However, the price was also extraordinary. The great change in temperament made them unable to go further in magic. In other words, the hexagram could indeed be changed by humans, but the completely different minds also made them another person."

"According to the records of the Privy Council, there are indeed examples where the sudden change of hexagram does not affect the practice, but they are all special circumstances and are difficult to reproduce. For example, those who lose memory after serious injury or are mentally insane." He looked at Xia Fan, "You don't have to be discouraged. Although Zhen is difficult to improve, it is not a pilgrim who has not yet made it out. You can first consider other magic techniques, even martial arts techniques, and when you accumulate certain merits and get above the sixth grade, you can directly apply for materials from the Privy Council."

There is actually a control group experiment, and the accumulation of the Privy Council over hundreds of years cannot be underestimated.

"Thank you for your reminder, Master Zhang." Xia Fan said with some reservations. He was actually mentally prepared for this result. When he was wandering with his master, he noticed that some techniques could be easily imitated, while others were much more difficult, and it was often only one or two months before the first signs were seen. However, the master nagged that learning magic was a long-term process, and it was normal to take three or four years to master it, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Only the shock technique that even the master did not know. After just following the other party's "oral statement" and following the other party's "speaking", he could feel that the energy in his body began to move, faster than any technique he had learned before. It was precisely because of this that he devoted most of his energy to trying and improving shock techniques.

Now, Xia Fan finally got a systematic answer.

As for classification by nature, he felt it was completely understandable - just like someone who was good at science and engineering in his previous life, while some were good at art. While his thoughts shape his personality, his personality will in turn strengthen his thoughts.

"You just talked about merit," Luo Youer said curiously, "What is the promotion method of the Privy Council? How many grades are there in total?"

"Miss, are you starting to think about promotion now? Not bad! This kind of thing is to plan early." Master Zhang praised, "The Privy Council is different from the six ministries. The grade is the grade, and the position is the position. The two cannot be compared. From the beginning, there are eight ranks of alchemists, namely, the first opening, the heart, the questioning, the test of the edge, the hundred blades, the guard, the green sword, and the feathered clothes. When you eliminate evil spirits for the Privy Council, create magic, improve materials and talismans, or make other great achievements, you may be promoted. And the position... For example, the teaching officer I am appointed, no matter how long I work, is only a responsibility and cannot achieve meritorious deeds."

"But you have also dealt with evil spirits."

"Indeed, I was only the sixth grade, but I was only the sixth grade." He felt a little regretful in his tone. "As for the position, part of it is for the convenience of the title, and the other part is for the connection with the six ministries of the court. Those fools who cannot feel angry will never understand that the decision of the status is not the square chair under the butt, but the strength they have."

"Okay, let's talk about the grade first. Since you have completed the appraisal of your mind, you can go to the library of the recording department by yourself and borrow the alchemy seal from the alchemist's seal to learn about the alchemy." Master Zhang finally summarized.

"May I ask...Is any type of art possible?" Wei Wushuang said unexpectedly, "Do you need to spend extra money?"

"If you can learn one more art if you spend money, then the Privy Council will probably pay you money to beg you to learn." Master Zhang looked at his expression as if he was looking at a fool, "The stronger the alchemist, the stronger the Privy Council. What reason is there to set up cards for strengthening your strength? Apart from not bringing out books and teaching non-alchemists everything they have learned in the mansion, the Recording Department has no other restrictions."

"Ha, fat man, do you think those arts can be learned as long as you want?" Wang Renzhi probably cheered up and pointed his ridicule at Wei Wushuang. "The arts are free, but it does not mean that medicinal materials and paper are free. If you learn too much at once, be careful to be poor."

"Uh... I should be able to afford it if it wasn't for too expensive materials." Wei Wushuang retorted in a low voice.

"Oh? That's why I underestimated you. But money can only solve the most basic problems. How much I can learn depends on this," he pointed to his head. "I've been awakened for less than three years and won the top ten in the Scholar exam."

"The top ten... Why don't Brother Wang go to Shangyuan City?"

"You envy Shangyuan, but I don't envy it. You can go there anytime if you have money, but in terms of freedom, how can you compare to Jinxia City? Alas, the local buns will blindly yearn for big cities."

Xia Fan realized that this guy named Wang was definitely either rich or noble, or both, and his family background should be ranked first in Jinxia City, otherwise it would not be so unrestrained - especially in the Privy Council. At least when he was boasting about himself, Master Zhang was just watching and had no intention of interfering.

He didn't seem to be targeting someone deliberately, but was used to speaking like this.

"I also want to ask for a question." Shangguan Cai stood up and said, "I have witnessed the battle between alchemists. To be honest, it is extremely clumsy. If you face an experienced gangster or a martial arts man, you will not have any power to fight back. Especially if you shout out your own magic... Is the same true for the top-grade alchemists?"

This questioning angle immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Even Xia Fan wanted to know the answer.

"The first batch of new alchemists this year is really good, much smarter than those three years ago." Master Zhang nodded with satisfaction, "Of course there is no need! The technique comes from the heart and the thought comes right away, so why do you need to use the help of the mouth to say it? But even if you guard or even the Qing Jian, you will still read the magic loudly on some occasions. What do you think this is?"

"Strengthen your consciousness?" Yue Feng tried to answer.

"Correct, when you express your thoughts, you can regard them as unity of mind and body, and when your level is almost different, the effect of reciting will definitely be stronger than not reciting. If it has no effect on your situation, what's the harm that you say it? In addition, if you have a clear consciousness, language can sometimes become an offensive method - for example, the technique you recite is completely opposite to the technique you think."

"So that's the case..." Shangguan Cai showed a thoughtful expression.

"If the opponent is an evil spirit, it is always good to shout it out?" Luo You'er clapped her hands suddenly, "Anyway, they don't understand human words!"

"That's exactly that." The Master laughed.

After the laughter subsided, Xia Fan raised his hand again.

"Can I ask a question that has nothing to do with magic?"

"Oh? Ask."

"When I was in Fenghua County, I met an old lady." He explained in detail what he had encountered three days ago. "The Privy Council is a court institution that deals with evil events. Why is the price so high that an ordinary family cannot bear? Shouldn't alchemists protect one side and protect others from evil spirits?"
