Mental strength
When Zhang Ruochen saw the Eighth Prince and Shan Xiangling, they also saw Zhang Ruochen standing outside the Inscription Run Guild.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen, the Eighth Prince was very angry, and sneered, "Ninth Brother, aren't you a martial arts genius now? What are you doing at the Inscription Pattern Guild?"
Zhang Ruochen shook his head lightly, not wanting to get entangled with the Eighth Prince, so he told Yun'er, "Sister Yun'er, wait for me on the ancient antelope cart, I'll go to the Inscription Pattern Guild to buy some things first."
Zhang Ruochen got off the ancient antelope horse car and walked towards the gate of the Inscription Pattern Guild.
Behind him came a very soft and pleasant voice, "His Royal Highness Ninth Prince, wait a moment."
Zhang Ruochen stopped, turned around, glanced at Shan Xiangling who was walking over, and said, "Who are you?"
In Qingxuan Pavilion, Zhang Ruochen met Shan Xiangling, but he didn't know Shan Xiangling's identity and name. All I know is that she seems to be the junior sister of the Eighth Prince, from a certain sect.
"Fire Cloud Sect, Shan Xiangling. His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince really opened Xiangling's eyes during the assessment at the end of the year. With a cultivation level at the lowest level of the Huangji Realm, he was able to defeat a warrior at the highest level of the Huangji Realm. If there is a chance, Xiangling very much hopes to exchange martial arts with His Royal Highness Ninth Prince."
Shan Xiangling walked towards Zhang Ruochen calmly, exuding a faint fragrance from her body, with a look of anticipation in her eyes.
As one of the four beauties of the youth generation in Yunwu County, Shan Xiangling is indeed very beautiful, her eyebrows are like willow leaves, her eyelashes are long and curled, and her facial features are very delicate, just like a finely crafted work of art by the creator.
Originally, the first time she saw Zhang Ruochen in Qingxuan Pavilion, she regarded Zhang Ruochen as a cripple who couldn't practice martial arts, and even suspected that Zhang Ruochen was Qin Ya's face, and looked down on him very much.
However, in the battle at the end of the year, Zhang Ruochen showed terrifying martial arts talent. He lifted a heavy stone plate as if playing a game, hunted first-level savage beasts, and defeated the enemy across two small realms.
Among young warriors, it is not an easy task to achieve any of them.
How could a martial arts prodigy like Zhang Ruochen be the face of others and become the plaything of a profligate woman?
Zhang Ruochen gave Shan Xiangling a slight look, and was slightly surprised, "This woman is not only very beautiful, but also has a very high talent in martial arts. She has already cultivated to the extreme level of Huangji Realm, which is better than Princess Nine and Lin Ningshan. The cultivation base is even higher."
In fact, Princess Nine, Lin Ningshan, and Shan Xiangling are all beautiful and extremely talented in martial arts, so they can be listed as one of the four beauties of the youth generation.
If you don't have the talent to practice martial arts, no matter how beautiful you are, you still don't have the qualifications to become a goddess-level figure that many warriors talk about.
Shan Xiangling's age is seventeen years old, a little older than Princess Nine and Lin Ningshan, and her cultivation level is naturally higher.
The eighth prince saw that Shan Xiangling had taken the initiative to show his favor to Zhang Ruochen. Sensing the crisis, he rushed over immediately and said, "Junior Sister, have you forgotten the matter between the ninth brother and the proprietress of Qingxuan Pavilion? You should stay away from such a person." Some..."
Shan Xiangling raised her hand slightly, interrupted the Eighth Prince's continuation, smiled with bright eyes and bright teeth, and said, "Ninth Prince is such a talented young man, how could he be the kind of person you mentioned?"
That sense of crisis is even stronger!
"Junior Sister! Let's go! I'll come to apprentice next time!" The Eighth Prince grabbed Shan Xiangling's wrist, trying to pull her away.
"Wow!"
The zhenqi in Shan Xiangling's body moved rapidly, and a powerful force emanated from his wrist, and with a light shake, the Hachioji was directly sent flying.
"His Royal Highness, men and women are different, please respect yourself." Shan Xiangling said coldly.
"Junior Sister..." Eighth Prince's five fingers were numb with pain, and he couldn't lift his whole arm.
Shan Xiangling glanced at Hachi Prince, then shook her head slightly.
When she looked at Zhang Ruochen again, a soft smile appeared on her face, and she said in a very pleasant voice: "His Royal Highness Ninth Prince, Xiangling is coming to the Mingwen Guild as an apprentice and intends to learn the art of refining. What about you?"
Zhang Ruochen saw everything just now, and said lightly: "I'm here to buy an inscription pen and spiritual paper, and I plan to learn the inscription patterns."
"Really? That's great. I have learned inscription patterns since I was a child, and I can already engrave some basic inscription patterns. I have also done some research on inscription pens and spiritual paper. If His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince wants to buy these two things, perhaps Xiang Ling can help." Shan Xiangling said.
Zhang Ruochen thought for a while, only to realize that he really didn't seem to know much about inscription pens and spirit paper, so he agreed.
Looking at the backs of Zhang Ruochen and Shan Xiangling, the Eighth Prince was extremely depressed.
After a while, the Eighth Prince's eyes regained his fighting spirit, and he secretly said in his heart, as long as I become the disciple of Zon's Artifact Refiner, then the junior sister will definitely return to my side again.
...
"Both the inscription pen and the spirit paper are divided into five grades, which are basic grade, intermediate grade, advanced grade, heaven grade, and god grade, which correspond to the five grades of the inscription patterns."
"To carve the basic inscription patterns, you only need to use basic-level inscription pens and spirit paper."
"People whose mental power is below the thirtieth level can only draw basic inscriptions. The higher the mental power, the more basic inscriptions can be drawn, the more stable the inscriptions, and the higher the success rate."
While introducing Zhang Ruochen, Shan Xiangling said: "I have cultivated spiritual power since I was a child, and at the same time learned inscription patterns. My current spiritual power has reached the sixteenth level, and I can also draw several basic inscription patterns, but the success rate is quite low. .It takes 20 strokes to succeed once."
"The success rate of a character like Zorn's refiner is already quite high. If you portray him ten times, he will be successful at least seven or eight times."
In Scarlet Cloud Sect, they also recruited craftsmen who could cultivate spiritual power. However, Chiyun Sect is a martial arts sect after all, and the craftsman with the highest spiritual power has only cultivated his spiritual power to the eighteenth level. With his attainments, it is already difficult to give advice to Shan Xiangling.
That's why Shan Xiangling came to the inscription pattern guild in Wangcheng, and wanted to join Zon's refiner's sect, continue to learn inscription patterns and weapon refinement, and strive to reach the level of a first-grade refiner as soon as possible.
"Your mental power has actually reached the sixteenth level!" Zhang Ruochen said.
You know, before the age of twenty, one can be called a genius if one has cultivated one's spiritual power to the fifteenth level. Among girls of the same age, Shan Xiangling's mental strength is quite remarkable.
When it comes to the strength of mental power, Shan Xiangling is also quite proud, and a sense of superiority suddenly arises in her heart, saying: "Generally speaking, if the mental power reaches the fifteenth level, there is a chance to become a first-grade weapon refiner."
After a pause, she said in frustration again: "It's a pity that my crafting skills and inscription carving skills are a bit poor. I took the exam twice, but I didn't pass the exam of a first-grade craftsman. If I can worship a Under the sect of a second-grade refiner, with his guidance, I will definitely become a first-grade refiner soon."
Zhang Ruochen said: "So what about becoming a first-grade craftsman? Is there any benefit?"
"There are simply too many benefits! First of all, after becoming a first-grade refiner, you can officially join the Inscription Pattern Guild and become a member of the Inscription Pattern Guild. Master Li lectures."
"At the same time, if you become a first-rank refiner, you can get a set of refiner robes specially refined by the Inscription Pattern Guild. As long as you wear the robes, it represents your identity. As long as it is not a personal grudge, or you provoke it yourself If someone dares to harm you, the Inscription Pattern Guild will come forward to help you resolve the matter."
"Of course, as a first-grade refiner, he is actually very respected by warriors. Generally speaking, no warrior will take the initiative to offend a refiner or alchemist."
Zhang Ruochen was also a little moved. You must know that the Inscription Pattern Guild has a very long history. It was born in the Middle Ages, hundreds of thousands of years ago. Even the First Central Empire founded by Empress Chi Yao is only 800 years old.
It can be said that even the foundation of the First Central Empire, which now rules the Kunlun Realm, is completely incomparable with the Inscription Pattern Guild.
No one knows how powerful the Inscription Pattern Guild is, anyway, no one dares to provoke the Inscription Pattern Guild.
It seems to be a good thing if you can become a member of the Inscription Pattern Guild. Zhang Ruochen nodded thoughtfully.
Inscription pens and spirit paper are very expensive.
A basic inscription pen costs 1,000 silver coins.
A basic-level spirit paper costs one silver coin.
Seeing the price, ordinary warriors turned away in fright.
Learning inscription patterns is simply a waste of money. Only big families and sects can train a few alchemists and weapon refiners. Moreover, before training, they must be carefully selected, and geniuses with strong spiritual power must be selected.
If there is no way to cultivate a first-rank alchemist, or a first-rank weapon refiner, it will be a loss.
Zhang Ruochen bought ten inscription pens and 10,000 spiritual papers, and spent a total of 20,000 silver coins. Even though he is not short of money now, he still spends it very distressed.
Zhang Ruochen bought an inscription pen and spirit paper, and then went with Shan Xiangling to meet Master Zuo En. It can be said that Zhang Ruochen doesn't know anything about inscription patterns now, and he relies entirely on his own groping.
If you can get the guidance of a master, perhaps, you can get twice the result with half the effort.
In the distance, they heard a voice.
"Congratulations, Your Highness the Eighth Prince, your spiritual power has reached the twelfth level. You really haven't cultivated your spiritual power before?" Zuo En said in amazement.
At the age of the eighth prince, if he could reach the twelfth level without cultivating spiritual power, it would definitely be regarded as an extraordinary talent.
"This prince has naturally never cultivated spiritual power before."
The Eighth Prince saw Zhang Ruochen and Shan Xiangling walking towards this side, with a smug smile in his eyes, he deliberately raised his voice, and said, "According to Master, isn't this prince born with a strong mental power?"
Hachioji was very excited to be affirmed by Master Zon, so he couldn't wait to show his talent to Shan Xiangling.
