If it were any other restriction.
He might not necessarily be able to meet it.
But if it is for a Spirit Plant Master.
Then that is quite a coincidence.
The Entry for the Spirit Hoe that Elder Lin gave him previously included Spirit Plant Cultivation.
And its effect is that he can barely be considered a Spirit Plant Master.
Thinking of this, he spoke directly to that disciple: "I am a Spirit Plant Master."
"Hmm?"
The disciple, who had been sitting at the table looking somewhat indifferent, stood up instantly upon hearing this.
He looked at Zhang Yan in disbelief: "You say you are a Spirit Plant Master?"
"That is correct."
Zhang Yan nodded gently.
"Whoa~"
Perhaps the voice was a bit loud, as there were quite a few cultivators inside the Sect Affairs Hall.
They were naturally sharp-eared and keen-eyed.
Hearing a sound, they immediately turned their attention over.
"He is a Spirit Plant Master?"
"How is this possible?"
"Looking at his age, he is only fourteen or fifteen, right?"
"And his cultivation level is only at Qi Refining Layer 1, how could he be a Spirit Plant Master?"
The crowd saw Zhang Yan and immediately began to whisper.
Spirit Plant Master.
Although it is the profession most chosen by cultivators.
This does not mean that being a Spirit Plant Master is simple.
Quite the contrary.
Precisely because so many people choose to be Spirit Plant Masters, the level of internal competition in this profession is more severe than in others.
Perhaps for other professions, a thirty percent success rate in doing something is considered Entry-level.
But for a Spirit Plant Master, it must be fifty percent to be considered Entry-level.
It might even require seventy percent to be considered Entry-level.
Therefore, a large number of cultivators, after choosing to be a Spirit Plant Master, fail to become one for a long time and eventually can only work as a Spirit Farmer or switch to another path.
That is why when Zhang Yan said he was a Spirit Plant Master, everyone was skeptical.
So young.
With such low cultivation, how could he be a Spirit Plant Master!
In everyone's impression, a Spirit Plant Master is at least at the Middle Qi Refining stage or an elderly person with White Hair.
Spirit Plants grow slowly; even the fastest-growing Spirit Rice takes four months to ripen.
A cultivator with low cultivation and a young age simply cannot gain much experience.
In such a situation, how could he possibly become a Spirit Plant Master?
"You say you are a Spirit Plant Master, then are you willing to undergo an assessment?" The disciple from the Sect Affairs Hall asked, although he also did not believe that Zhang Yan could become a Spirit Plant Master at such a young age.
"I can."
Zhang Yan nodded without hesitation.
The so-called Spirit Plant Master assessment is actually not commonly used.
Because everyone knows clearly over the years which Spirit Farmer is capable.
For example, in the same Spirit Field, one Spirit Farmer's harvest is simply greater than others.
Or for another example.
When tending to the same Spirit Medicine, some Spirit Farmers can make the Spirit Medicine mature faster and have better medicinal effects.
There are also some Spirit Farmers who, let alone helping the Spirit Medicine grow, end up killing it directly.
In such cases, high-quality Spirit Farmers are naturally called Spirit Plant Masters.
But there is another type.
Just like Zhang Yan.
Not very old, not much experience, but gifted with Talent, and in the path of spirit planting, he is simply better than others.
But if others do not believe it, what can be done?
That is where the assessment comes in.
And the assessment for a Spirit Plant Master is very straightforward: it is the care and treatment of Spirit Plants.
"Since Junior Brother is willing to accept the assessment, then please follow me."
Hearing that Zhang Yan was willing to accept the assessment.
That person immediately became interested.
He hurriedly led Zhang Yan to the backyard.
They entered a Room covered with a curtain.
"Steward, a disciple has come to be certified as a Spirit Plant Master."
"Come in."
An old voice came from inside.
"Junior Brother, go in. I still have to return to the Sect Affairs Hall."
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
Zhang Yan bowed to the disciple of the Sect Affairs Hall, then lifted the curtain and walked in carefully.
Behind the curtain was a small place that looked like a greenhouse.
There were rows of shelves around, and on them were baskets of spirit soil with bits of White growing on them.
Zhang Yan's nose began to Twitch.
He faintly smelled a moldy odor.
"You want to be tested as a Spirit Plant Master?"
Just as Zhang Yan was pondering, the old voice from before sounded again.
He looked down subconsciously.
He saw a Dwarf Elder less than three feet tall standing in front of him.
He had not noticed the Dwarf Elder earlier because he was observing the Room.
"Greetings, Lord Steward. This disciple wishes to be assessed as a Spirit Plant Master."
"To come and test for Spirit Plant Master at such a young age with only Qi Refining Layer 1, then I will test you with a simple problem. The Spirit Mushrooms in this room are in a strange state; come and see what is going on." The Dwarf Elder's voice was somewhat cold.
Clearly, he did not think highly of Zhang Yan coming to take the assessment.
"Very well!"
Zhang Yan did not hesitate after hearing this.
Instead, he immediately began to investigate.
And the Dwarf Elder watched Zhang Yan with a calm expression.
The plants grown in this room were all a type of Spirit Mushroom.
They had been normal before, but for some reason, many of the Spirit Mushrooms had suddenly become moldy and rotten during this period.
He had just accepted a sect mission to come and check on them.
Before he could find a clue, he encountered Zhang Yan coming to be assessed as a Spirit Plant Master.
In his anger, he gave this task to Zhang Yan.
He looked down on people who treated the Spirit Plant Master assessment like a child's game.
Zhang Yan did not know the Dwarf Elder's thoughts.
At this moment.
He was carefully examining these Spirit Mushrooms.
"Is it because of a fungal infection?"
Looking at these Spirit Mushrooms, Zhang Yan's eyes showed a flash of realization.
These Spirit Mushrooms should be suffering from a fungal infection; of course, that was the term from his past life, but in this life, it should be called Evil Qi Invasion.
And this.
He knew how to handle it!
Zhang Yan found an infected Spirit Mushroom.
He stretched out his finger and waved it gently.
A Spiritual Light flashed, and a burst of Spiritual Energy directly cut off half of the Spirit Mushroom.
"What are you doing, kid!"
Seeing this scene, the Dwarf Elder became Furious, jumping up suddenly, his height reaching Zhang Yan's chest.
He glared with wide eyes, the expression on his face extremely angry.
"Please wait a moment, I can cure this!"
Regarding the Dwarf Elder's anger.
Zhang Yan did not care.
His goal was just to treat the Spirit Mushrooms anyway.
"Fine, I want to see how you, kid, are going to cure it! If you cannot cure it, I will fine you Spirit Stones!" The Dwarf Elder's voice was somewhat sharp.
"Very well."
Zhang Yan was calm and unhurried.
He unleashed his Wood Element Technique, and a ray of Emerald Green light shone out.
"Hmm?"
"Wood Element Technique Minor Accomplishment?"
Seeing this Spell.
The Dwarf Elder widened his eyes.
As the most basic and core Spell for a Spirit Plant Master, he certainly recognized it.
If an ordinary person cast this Spell, he would not have had any reaction.
But...
This guy is only in his teens and his cultivation is only at Qi Refining Layer 1, yet he has already reached Minor Accomplishment!!
What kind of Talent is this?
"Just relying on this Wood Element Technique alone is more than enough to be a Spirit Plant Master." At this moment, the Dwarf Elder already had an idea in his mind.
This kid can pass the assessment and become a Spirit Plant Master.
To have learned the Wood Element Technique at such a young age, he is definitely a good seedling for a Spirit Plant Master!
