Bizarre Cultivation: Starting from Being Beaten Up by Reality

Chapter 129 Li Family Disciple Test

Lin Fan stroked his goatee and said, "It seems that my junior brother has made all the preparations. I will just stand by and chant sutras for the deceased."

After saying that, he ignored Huang Haozi, took a futon and sat down, placed his hands on his lap and formed a mudra, put his whisk on his wrist, closed his eyes and waited.

Lin Fan's hand seal wasn't made randomly; it was a Dao seal used to initiate a spell within his "clone," so it wouldn't be detected as fake. Whether the occasion was appropriate was a matter of luck.

Seeing this, Huang Haozi knew he couldn't say anything more, so he began to perform a ritual.

Huang Haozi began to swing the peach wood sword, and Lin Fan's lips started to move again, "Hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron..."

Huang Haozi looked back at Lin Fan in confusion. Why didn't I hear the chanting for salvation?

Lin Fan kept his eyes closed, sensing the doubt emanating from Huang Haozi. "Don't understand? That's right, otherwise how could I be your senior uncle?"

He knows a few lines of the Rebirth Mantra, but firstly, he might have misremembered them, and secondly, he might not even remember them all. He can't keep repeating those few lines indefinitely.

After memorizing the periodic table, Lin Fan began memorizing mathematical formulas and vocabulary, interspersed with the periodic table. It sounded rhythmic, but he couldn't understand it at all. He could also memorize classical Chinese, since the language of this world was different from the language of the modern world.

Do you even understand the capabilities of graduating high school students?

By the time Huang Haozi finished the ritual, Lin Fan's lips were practically burning. If he did this every day, he would definitely be able to get into university!

Lin Fan was indeed exhausted, his forehead covered in sweat, mostly from nervousness. Trying to pull a fast one in front of so many people was bound to be nerve-wracking.

After the ritual was completed, the Li family carried the coffin to the burial site. Lin Fan really wanted to ask them why they were in such a hurry. The person had just died in the morning, the ritual was performed at noon, and the burial was in the afternoon. Did they think the corpse would turn into a zombie if it wasn't buried within a day? This was far too hasty!

Li Gengjin handed two silver ingots to Huang Haozi, who then brought over the whole plate and gave it to Lin Fan. "Uncle-Master, you've worked hard. I've gained a lot from learning the Dharma with you this time. Thank you for your guidance."

Lin Fan felt rather strange; it was as if he had lied to someone and they still had to thank him. In short, he didn't like this feeling.

He took one ingot of silver, but Huang Haozi insisted that he accept another ingot, which Lin Fan insisted on refusing.

Actually, he didn't want any of the ingots; after all, he couldn't take the money from the underworld with him. But taking one ingot was more reasonable.

"Two Taoist priests, please come and have a vegetarian meal."

Lin Fan's expression fell. "Still want to eat?"

Li Gengjin asked curiously, "Doesn't the Daoist Master eat?"

"Ahem." Lin Fan coughed. "I have already abstained from grains and can live on dew and wind."

"Then please take a seat, Daoist Master, and have a cup of tea."

There was no meat on the table, but the soup still had oil floating on top and emitted a fragrant aroma; there was even tofu!

Lin Fan was certainly hungry, but he dared not eat, and besides, eating would only be an illusion. He could only suppress his rumbling stomach and pretend to sip tea.

Huang Haozi had absolutely no pressure about maintaining a refined and otherworldly persona. He ate heartily with a full bowl of rice, then mixed the rice with the vegetable soup and poured it into his mouth.

After finishing two bowls of rice, he said to Lin Fan, "Uncle-Master, it's such a pity you can't finish it. The vegetables grown by the Farm Sect are all beneficial to cultivation. At the very least, they can strengthen your body and prolong your life!"

Lin Fan looked at the ordinary food on the table, unsure whether Huang Haozi was telling the truth.

Finally, after finishing their meal, it was time to test the young disciples of the Li family. Not only Lin Fan, but Huang Haozi also came over to watch out of curiosity.

Huang Haozi was still holding a handful of melon seeds, about to hand them to Lin Fan, "Uncle-Master, want some? The disciple test of the Maolin Li family is quite interesting; I've witnessed it once before."

Hearing this, Lin Fan became excited.

The group arrived at the testing site, which was an open space filled with various small obstacles.

Lin Fan looked around the venue; it looked strangely familiar.

The first to be tested was Li Youtian and his black dragon.

"Go, Little Black!"

With a haughty command from Li Youtian.

Lin Fan's memory has also fully returned. Isn't this the small dog obstacle course competition he saw on the video website?

The nimble black Pomeranian confidently leaped over obstacle after obstacle, bounding through a halo of straw hanging in mid-air, looking utterly arrogant.

Huang Haozi watched the show from the sidelines, cheering as if he were watching a circus act. He realized that this was exactly what "interesting" meant, and it truly was interesting in the literal sense.

Even more outrageous were the clan elders watching from the sidelines, all of them with rosy cheeks, offering their comments with expressions of admiration.

"You Tian's spirit beast is really well trained. Its talent is among the top three in the Li family in the past hundred years."

"This spirit beast has remarkable eyesight; it's destined for greatness!"

"Did you see that jump just now? It was perfect, not too much or too little. Such precise control of power is truly rare!"

Lin Fan kept a straight face, afraid that if he relaxed, his expression would look strange. "Don't you feel ashamed talking like that? Aren't you embarrassed?"

After completing the obstacle course, the black dragon arrived at the final challenge, where it faced a proud and imposing rooster, a head taller than the black Pomeranian.

In a fierce battle between chickens and dogs, the black Pomeranian finally bit through the rooster's neck. The little black dog held its head high, puffed out its chest, and carried the rooster around the field once.

The crowd cheered.

Next up was the second son, Li Youshui, who immediately greeted everyone with great politeness.

However, once they set off, all sorts of problems arose. When faced with obstacles, Pomeranian hesitated and needed Li Youshui's constant encouragement to get over them.

But then the clan elders started commenting.

"You Shui's performance was quite good; he could be ranked second among the younger disciples."

"A spiritual root with water is at least of the superior grade, but unfortunately, even though they are twins, they are still a notch below each other."

"Alas, if it weren't for the fact that Tian Zhuyu came before him, You Shui would also be a peerless talent."

Lin Fan's lips twitched violently; if this continued, he began to think that there was something wrong with him.

Huang Haozi nudged him with his arm and said, "Uncle-Master, I told you it was interesting. Look how happy they are. No matter what their level is, they all think they are cultivators."

Upon hearing this, Lin Fan's face darkened. "Nephew, you must not speak recklessly and break the rules."

Huang Haozi chuckled, "This disciple is enlightened, enlightened."

In the final segment, the Pomeranian and the rooster fought a fierce battle, ending in a draw, and both received positive reviews.

Lin Fan thought that was enough of a perfunctory response, but after reading the rest, he realized why the clan elders thought the two young masters had performed so well.

A girl came up behind us, carrying a small sparrow.

The sparrow flew to the finish line in a flash, but failed to clear a single obstacle, earning a good scolding from the clan elder.

A chubby boy was with a field mouse. The field mouse could only complete the obstacle courses on the ground, ignoring all the high jumps, but it still tried its best and performed better than a sparrow. But things went terribly wrong in the next challenge. The field mouse was chased all over the place by a rooster, and luckily it wasn't pecked to death.

Lin Fan's lips were twitching so hard he almost went numb. He said to Li Gengjin, "Aren't you guys going to consider setting up test levels based on different species?"
