Chapter 22: Become a disciple of Elder Huo Ling

"Shi Hao?"

"Stone country people?"

The three-eyed spirit murmured in a low voice.

But then he put it behind him.

His surname is just Shi, which means he may not be a member of the royal family of Shi Kingdom.

And even if he is a member of the royal family of the Stone Kingdom, so what? There are princes and princesses from other countries who come to study in the Butian Pavilion.

One more is not too much, one less is not too much.

Moreover, he had never heard of any prince of the Stone Kingdom who was proficient in fire and water magic.

Retracting his thoughts, the three-eyed spirit body saw Wang Miao bury the talisman bone in his arms back to its original place, and activated it with divine power, connecting it with the formation.

"Shi Hao, let me ask you a question."

"Why do you want to dig out the talisman bones in the assessment area? I see that although you have observed the talisman bones, I don't believe that you can comprehend them in such a short time. So what is your reason for doing this? Why do you do this?"

When Wang Miao heard this, a barely perceptible alertness flashed in his eyes.

But it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

No matter how powerful the spirit in front of him was, it was impossible for him to know that he could quickly learn the array patterns on the talisman bone through the system.

This way, he could pretend to be gifted, and it would be easier for him to join the Butian Pavilion in the future and obtain more scriptures and magic skills.

So Wang Miao said:

"I have been smart since I was young, and I know everything naturally. I can remember scriptures and magic after just one look."

"Now that he is seven years old, he has studied more than a hundred scriptures..."

Before Wang Miao could finish his words, he was interrupted by the three-eyed spirit.

"What, how old did you say you were?"

"Seven years old."

This is another label that Wang Miao added to him.

In this world, a good memory is not a rare talent, and reaching the cave heaven realm at the age of seventeen or eighteen is not too amazing.

Moreover, with the Heaven-Deceiving Talisman on him, even the three-eyed spiritual body could not see through Wang Miao's true cultivation level.

Judging from the strength Wang Miao has shown, it can be guessed that he might be in the middle stage of Cave Heaven Realm.

But if one is gifted with extraordinary talent and has practiced to the middle stage of cave heaven at the age of seven, this is not something that can be summarized by the word genius.

Moreover, Wang Miao's current physical condition is obviously inconsistent with his stated age.

The three-eyed spirit instantly appeared in front of Wang Miao, but he didn't notice how the other party came in front of him.

Grabbing Wang Miao's arm, the three-eyed spirit body slapped it quickly with both hands.

This seems to be a means of testing bone age.

A few minutes later, the three-eyed spirit looked at Wang Miao with shock.

He didn't expect that what Wang Miao said was actually true.

He was actually only seven years old.

Moreover, this physical body, which was abnormally inconsistent with its age, shocked the three-eyed spirit once again.

Not to mention anything else, his physical strength alone is actually no worse than that of an ordinary cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Realm.

Wang Miao's body is full of qi and blood, and has a profound foundation.

When reaching the Blood Moving Realm, one's strength might reach the legendary extreme of 100,000 jin.

The three-eyed spirit wanted to roar to the sky. This time, his Butian Pavilion had really found a good treasure.

Moreover, Wang Miao is also good at fire-related magic, which just happens to be his strong point!
Although his water-based magic is a bit poor, it also depends on who he is compared with.

It’s more than enough to teach a little guy in the Cave Heaven Realm.

Immediately, he grabbed Wang Miao and rushed out of the third area.

Then, without returning to his original place, he rushed straight to his residence in the Butian Pavilion.

Elder Changchun looked at the three-eyed spirit flying away and asked Elder Huoyan beside him in confusion:
"You old man, you must have discovered another good seedling, so you are in such a hurry to bring it back!"

The Flame Elder did not hide anything and a smile appeared on the corner of his serious mouth.

"Haha, it's just so-so. It's just that you will have the chance to enter the Holy Academy later. It's not worth mentioning!"

"Holy Court!"

"It seems that the little fellow's talent is indeed extraordinary. He actually has the opportunity to enter the Ancient Saint Academy..."

As he spoke, Elder Changchun looked at Wang Miao, of whom only a residual image was left.

……

On a majestic sacred mountain in Butian Pavilion.

Wang Miao and the three-eyed spirit sat facing each other on either side of an open-air tea table.

There are two cups of tea with a fragrant aroma on the table. Smelling the tea a few more times can help calm your mind.

The three-eyed spirit smiled at Wang Miao and said playfully:

"Your name is Shi Hao?"

Wang Miao quickly said yes.

Wang Miao had no psychological burden about impersonating Shi Hao.

As for cause and effect, he didn't care even more.

Regardless of whose reflection this is in, or in the original trajectory of the perfect world, Wang Miao is confident that his future achievements will be no worse than Shi Hao, or even stronger.

In that case, what's wrong with using a false name?
If you have the guts, go and cause trouble for him in the future!

The three-eyed spirit still smiled as he shook his head and said:
"You are not Shi Hao, you are the Fire Immortal."

"You're not even a fire fairy. These two are just fake names you gave yourself." "But I don't care what your real name is. I just have one question."

Wang Miao neither admitted that the three-eyed spirit was right nor that it was wrong. He said respectfully:
"Excuse me."

"Do you have any other purpose in coming to Butian Pavilion?"

Wang Miao thought for a while and said:
“Does studying count?”

"Not counting."

"Then there is none."

"Really do not have?"

"No."

"Okay, in that case, I'll believe you!"

"I see that you are good at fire and water magic. Coincidentally, I am also good at it. How about you follow me and learn from me?"

Wang Miao looked at the three-eyed spirit who wanted to take him in as a disciple but never said it clearly, and he was not surprised at all.

As for his proficiency in water and fire magic, it was entirely because after practicing the Chi Ming Jiu Tian Tu, Wang Miao had a natural affinity for water and fire.

It is easier to control than ordinary monks.

It's really not that he's only good at these two.

He is also very good at the magic of swallowing magic and the magic of flying magic!
Wang Miao did not refuse the three-eyed spirit's desire to teach him personally.

It just so happened that he had not yet understood clearly the fusion of water and fire and the cooperation of water and fire when the Chi Ming Jiu Tian Tu returned to the innate state from the acquired state, so he could ask this cheap master for advice.

"This is naturally a blessing for disciples!"

"Teacher, my elders always say that if you read ten thousand books, you will be able to write like a god. Cultivation is just like reading. Only when you read more scriptures can you have your own insights into cultivation."

"I would like to spend one hour every day in the Sutra Library to study the scriptures. Please allow me to do so, Master."

“Read ten thousand books and write like a god!”

The three-eyed spirit kept muttering, with a gleam in its eyes.

"Very good. The one who can say such words must be a great senior."

"I approve this. Even if you don't tell me, as my disciple, you are entitled to observe the Sutra Library three days a month."

"For now, it's only changed to one hour a day. For the remaining six hours, you can arrange your time as you like..."

"By the way, my name is Huo Ling. Don't bring disgrace upon my reputation in the future."

After saying that, Elder Huo Ling threw a jade token to Wang Miao.

This is a disciple token with the words "Shi Hao" engraved on one side and the words "Huo Ling" engraved on the other side.

Afterwards, Elder Huo Ling waved his hand and brought Wang Miao to a small courtyard filled with spiritual energy.

Pointing at the courtyard, Elder Huo Ling said:
"This small courtyard will be your residence from now on."

"Put the token close to the gate, and the formation here will be activated..."

"Besides this, the token has many other uses. Just try them out yourself!"

"By the way, remember to come and listen to my class tomorrow."

Having said that, Elder Huo Ling’s spirit body left.

Only Wang Miao was left looking at the quaint courtyard in front of him, but you have to say, the spiritual energy was really abundant.

Especially after he activated the formation in the courtyard.

It seemed that all the spiritual energy within a hundred miles was attracted to the courtyard.

Practicing here for one day is equivalent to half a month of hard practice in the outside world.

No wonder so many geniuses want to join the Butian Pavilion. This alone makes it worthy of the title of a holy place for cultivation.

……

The second day after Wang Miao gradually began to practice under the guidance of Elder Huo Ling.

The enrollment examination of Butian Pavilion has finally ended.

One after another, young geniuses walked out of the assessment area with outstanding talents.

Some were calm and composed, with their heads held high; some supported each other; others were in a very miserable state, seriously injured, and barely managed to get out.

However, except for a dozen people coming out of the third district, the number of people who came out of the other seven districts was only twenty at most, and the least was only three people who passed the assessment.

The eight districts combined only have about a hundred people.

Among these hundred people, Shi Yunfeng was standing among them.

He looked at the young men around him with some confusion.

It’s impossible that he passed the test but Wang Miao didn’t!
Could it be that he was sniped by a group of people from the Tuoba family?

So does he still want to join the Butian Pavilion?

For a moment, Shi Yunfeng looked embarrassed.

He and Wang Miao left the Great Wilderness together, and here they are people who can help and trust each other.

Although his cultivation level is still a little behind Wang Miao, he is confident that he can catch up in the future.

And don’t be fooled by Wang Miao’s teenage appearance.

He knew very well that Wang Miao's real age was only seven years old.

If he wasn't with her, if something unexpected happened, how would he explain to the old village chief of Wangjia Village when he returned?

Just as he was about to stand up and resign, Wang Miao's voice reached his ears.

"Brother Yunfeng, don't worry about me. I have already joined the Butian Pavilion. Look to the right..."

Upon hearing this, Shi Yunfeng quickly looked to the right.

Sure enough, behind a huge rock, he saw Wang Miao's figure.
