When Mo Hua saw Mr. Zhuang again, his face showed some resentment.
“Sir, didn’t you say there is a threshold?”
Mr. Zhuang smiled and said casually: “There is a threshold, maybe you crossed it accidentally.”
“Then am I considered a first-grade formation master now?”
“not that simple.”
Mr. Zhuang found a more comfortable position to lie down on the bamboo chair and explained to the ink painting: “Being able to draw nine formation patterns can only be said to have crossed the threshold of the first level. You have to learn more, draw more, and learn more. Only with more first-level formations and a complete mastery of the method of forming nine formations with one thought can one be considered to have the strength of a first-level formation master.”
Mo Hua heard something in Mr. Zhuang’s words, “With the strength of a first-class formation master, don’t you have the reputation of a first-class formation master?”
Mr. Zhuang nodded, “The name was decided by Dao Ting.”
“Daoting? Isn’t it Daotingsi?”
“The Daoting Division is under the jurisdiction of the Daoting. There are no formation masters in it, so what ability does it have to determine the quality of the formation masters?”
Mr. Zhuang said with deep eyes, “The Daoting is located in Daozhou in the center of Kyushu. The seven pavilions are named after the seven stars. Among the seven pavilions, Tianshu Pavilion is responsible for determining the grades of all formation masters above the first rank in Kyushu. Every few years, Tianshu Pavilion The Pavilion will send monks to the borders of Kyushu to order the formation masters.”
“Tianshu Pavilion…”
Mo Hua was shocked in his heart.
Daoting was high up and out of reach, and this was the first time he heard the name Tianshu Pavilion.
“Is it difficult to finalize the product?” Mo Hua couldn’t help but ask.
Mr. Zhuang nodded and said, “It’s difficult. First, it’s the assessment, and second, it’s the quota.”
Mo Hua doesn’t quite understand.
Mr. Zhuang said: “The assessment depends on the formation, and the quota depends on the connections.”
Mo Hua frowned, “The formation master’s selection is not based on the formation. Do we still need to rely on connections?”
Mr. Zhuang smiled contemptuously and said, “The formation master’s grade is based on the level of the formation, but the person who gives you the grade is the person. As long as you are related to people, you naturally need connections.”
“What kind of connections do you need…”
“Either the family is prominent, or the parents are extraordinary, or there are many spiritual stones. If you can clear them up, your network will naturally expand.”
Mo Hua was stunned. Wouldn’t it mean that a casual cultivator like him, who had no power and few spiritual stones, could not be judged?
Mo Hua asked weakly: “Are there any places for casual cultivators?”
“It’s impossible not to have one. There will always be a few. As for whether you can be chosen, it all depends on your fate.”
They say it depends on fate, but actually it depends on fate.
Mo Hua frowned and said: “If you put it this way, wouldn’t it mean that the formation masters are all in the aristocratic sects? The formation masters among the lower-level monks must be broken…”
Mr. Zhuang’s eyes became meaningful, he looked at the ink painting and said calmly: “That’s right.”
Mo Hua was stunned for a moment, a slight chill rising in his heart.
Mr. Zhuang gently rubbed Mo Hua’s head, “These are external matters, don’t worry too much.”
It was impossible for Mo Hua not to be careless. After a pause, he still couldn’t help but ask: “Sir, what if I’m unlucky and can’t decide on the product?”
Mr. Zhuang slowly sat up, the laziness in his eyes was gone, and his sharpness was slightly revealed, showing his sternness in the plainness:
“The formation master seeks the way of heaven and fully understands all principles. He is not defined by any common things, nor is he judged by any monk.”
“The Taoist court can determine the quality, but what it determines is their quality, and what it determines is the quality of power and profit.”
“What the formation master is really looking for is not the level of power, but the character of the great avenue of heaven and earth!”
Mo Hua was shocked in his heart, his consciousness became clear for a moment, and he felt suddenly enlightened.
“Thank you sir for your teaching.”
Mo Hua stood up respectfully and bowed deeply to Mr. Zhuang.
Mr. Zhuang nodded, and then said casually: “However, Daoting’s final product must be finalized.”
“Ah?” Mo Hua was stunned.
“After being approved by the Taoist court, your status will be different. From now on, you will be tougher in speech, and it will be easier to do things. Cats and dogs will not jump around in front of you. There are also free spiritual stones. If you don’t take it, you will get it… …”
“Then what if I can’t determine the top grade?” Mo Hua asked weakly.
Mr. Zhuang glanced at Mo Hua lightly and said, “There’s no rush.”
“Aren’t you in a hurry to order something?”
“It is not fixed or not urgent.”
“Well……”
Mr. Zhuang said: “How old are you? When you go to order the products, the people who will assess you are either middle-aged monks or gray-haired old men. They are more anxious than you. Why are you anxious?”
“Oh.” After thinking about it, Mo Hua felt much more relaxed.
“But what if you still can’t decide?”
Ink painting is more realistic.
Mr. Zhuang couldn’t help but ruffled Mo Hua’s hair again, “If you still can’t decide, just go and order the second grade.”
Mo Hua was stunned, “Second grade?”
“The first level will be stuck, but the second level will not. Tianshu Pavilion is not all idiots. Those who are stuck in the first level will forget it and everyone will turn a blind eye. But the second level is different. The formation level can reach the second level. , Even if he doesn’t have a distinguished background, he is definitely an ordinary person, and Tianshu Pavilion would not dare to provoke him at will. “
Mr. Zhuang said with a faint smile: “If you really have the level of a second-grade formation master, but Tianshu Pavilion is unwilling to give you a grade, you can stand at the door of Tianshu Pavilion, point to the plaque, and scold them for being ignorant. ”
Mo Hua asked in a low voice: “What kind of cultivation is the elder of Tianshu Pavilion…”
“It’s hard to say, the level must be a hole…”
Mo Hua opened his mouth wide. He had never heard of it.
Mo Hua looked at Mr. Zhuang and asked quietly: “Sir, you have never scolded Mr. Ge, have you?”
Standing at someone’s door and scolding someone’s elder.
If Mr. Zhuang had never done it before, how could he be so familiar with it? “I never curse others.” Mr. Zhuang said.
Mo Hua looked at Mr. Zhuang again.
He has a fairy-like spirit and a graceful manner. Even when he is lying down, he has a sense of coolness and freedom.
Mo Hua thought to himself: Mr. Zhuang does not look like he is capable of cursing, but it is hard to say what he is actually like.
Then Mo Hua was lightly tapped on the head by Mr. Zhuang.
“Are you planning me in your mind?”
Mo Hua chuckled and said again:
“But sir, when I become a second-grade formation master, it will be years and years of the monkey.”
Mr. Zhuang said: “First-grade formation masters are difficult, and there is only one grade. Second-grade formation masters are different. They are divided into junior high, middle and high levels. Each time you step on a step, there is a huge difference in the level of the formation.”
Mr. Zhuang looked at Mo Hua, “With your ability, as long as you can build the foundation and put in some effort, it shouldn’t be difficult to become a second-level primary formation master.”
Mo Hua was refreshed and felt that he had another pursuit.
But he still has a doubt: “Why is the second grade divided into junior high school and high school, but the first grade is not?”
According to Mr. Zhuang, a first-grade product can actually be divided into three levels.
Apprentices and formation masters who have not reached the first level, and first-level formation masters who have reached the first level.
The current first-grade formation masters can actually be regarded as first-grade high-level formation masters.
“What do you think?” Mr. Zhuang asked.
Mo Hua frowned and thought for a moment, “Is it the threshold?”
Mr. Zhuang nodded and said calmly: “If the threshold is raised, the monks below will not be able to cross it.”
