Besides, ye Zan left the Tongtian tower and went directly to the iron fortress. At this time, the contest held by Yuqing Taoist palace to select excellent disciples had already ended. Whether they lost the election or simply came to see the excitement, they have already dispersed. Only those excellent disciples who were selected remained in the iron fortress and accepted the final tests.


    This time, ye Zan wants to select some excellent disciples for yuqingzong. Excellent disciples not only need excellent qualifications, but also need to be investigated from mind to character. Although people brought out of this small world have to leave their names on that military book, which is equivalent to an additional layer of loyalty guarantee, it doesn''t mean that they really don''t have to care about anything.


    For example, there is such a kind of person with high qualification and excellent performance at ordinary times, but when he encounters something big, such as the threat of a strong enemy, he counsels for no reason, and he can''t even give full play to one percent of his original ability. Although such people are not very common, they are by no means special cases. The main problem is that their psychological tolerance is too poor and they panic when they encounter something.


    Of course, such people are not hopeless. As long as they can find a way to break through that mental barrier, they can still become useful talents. However, ye Zan is impatient to do this problem of psychological adjustment. Anyway, it''s not that he can''t choose others. Moreover, like those who have problems with their mind and character, they can also stay in Yuqing Dao palace and transform slowly. When they can get rid of their problems, it''s not too late to take them out to join Yuqing Zong.


    In addition to qualification, other tests and tests need to be done by means of science and technology. For example, psychological testing, although the world also talks about mental problems, it often relies on the so-called experience of knowing people, or it can only wait for the weakness of each other''s mental nature to be exposed. However, through the world of science and technology, we can accurately expose the psychological problems of the subjects.


    When ye Zan came to the iron fortress, he first met the two ancestors of Yuanying left behind in Yuqing Dao palace. The two ancestors of Yuanying, one named Li Tianying and the other named Wang Mingyang, are now the leaders of Yuqing Dao palace.


    "I''ve seen elder Ye!" Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang greeted Ye Zan respectfully.


    "Oh, I''ve seen two elders. Thank you for waiting!" Ye Zan said with a smile.


    After the ceremony, Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang looked at Ye Zan and said, "congratulations to elder ye, promotion to Yuanying realm!"


    In fact, since Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang know that ye Zan will take people away this time, they can naturally guess that ye Zan''s cultivation has improved. However, when they saw Ye Zan and felt the mana fluctuation on Ye Zan, they were quite surprised. When they think about it, ye Zan has just stepped into the realm of Yuanying, and that cultivation is naturally the early stage of Yuanying. But I didn''t expect that at present, the other party seems to be stronger than their two Yuanying in the middle stage.


    "Hehe, thank you very much." ye zanke said.


    "Elder ye, we have done everything you ordered to select excellent disciples. Now, eight disciples of Jindan territory and 17 disciples of Zhuji territory, a total of 25, are undergoing the final test." Li Tianying reported to ye Zanhui.


    "Well, thank you, two elders. Because I am Yuqing sect, ten elders of Yuanying territory have just joined us. In order not to cause tension in other sects, I will wrong two elders and other elders of Daogong in a short time. Please be considerate." Ye Zan explained to Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang why he didn''t take Yuanying''s ancestor out this time.


    "No matter what elder ye said, our cultivation is not perfect now, and we practice the same everywhere. Moreover, as long as the sect needs it, we work for the sect everywhere. How can we feel wronged." Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang quickly responded.


    "Well, two elders, don''t worry. The sect will keep a firm record of your contributions to the sect and won''t treat you badly in the future." Ye Zan also promised Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang.


    "We must do our best for the sect!" Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang can''t say that they are overjoyed at the smell of the speech, but at least they don''t have any worries when they get Ye Zan''s promise. After all, this time ye Zan did not choose to take their Yuanying ancestors away. No matter how they understand it rationally, they will inevitably have some bumps in their hearts.


    At this time, the door of the conference hall opened. Ye Yi and others who were responsible for testing the disciples came in and reported the test results to Ye Zan.


    Originally, 25 excellent disciples were selected, but after those scientific and technological test projects, the final number was set at 20. Among the 20 disciples, there are five in Jindan territory and 15 in Zhuji territory. The passing rate is also very high. As for the five people who failed the test, in fact, they can''t be eliminated. Five people will also become key disciples in Yuqing Taoist palace. Moreover, the iron fortress will also formulate some training plans for their problems in the test.


    Ye Zan is also satisfied with the result that so many outstanding talents worthy of training can be selected from such a small world.


    Next, ye Zan took another look at the planting of Lingdao in the small world. Through Skynet''s monitoring, those spiritual rice planting bases in the whole small world, even a bug climbing on the ground, could not escape his eyes.


    This spiritual rice is of great significance to practitioners. Therefore, Yuqing Taoist palace dare not neglect the cultivation of spiritual rice at all. Therefore, the growth of Lingdao is quite good in all planting bases in the whole small world. It won''t be long before it will be a bumper harvest again.


    "Two elders, I have another thing to do this time. I need the help of the Taoist palace." Ye Zan said to Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang after seeing the planting of Lingdao.


    "If elder Ye has anything to do, please tell him!" Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang said quickly and respectfully.


    "I have a batch of seeds here, but they are not spirit rice seeds, but some high-yield ordinary crops." Ye Zan said, took out a few things from heaven and earth ring and put them on the table in the conference hall. If people in the world of science and technology recognize these things for the first time, there are also crops that were very famous in the era of the earth, such as corn, potatoes and so on.


    These crops, which ye Zan found from the plant gene bank he brought, are among the top high-yield crops in the world of science and technology. Moreover, these crops have also been genetically adjusted, which can be said to have more advantages than the original plants. In addition to high yield, insect resistance and drought resistance, as well as taste, have been adjusted and optimized. For example, potatoes are known to produce toxins after germination, which can be serious or even fatal. However, after genetic adjustment, potatoes basically have no function of generating toxins, and the shelf life has been prolonged a lot.


    Yezan took out these high-yield crops mainly for merit. After all, the promotion of Lingdao has not really reached the level of broadcasting the world, and he has advanced this piece of merit, and he will not get too much merit in the future. Although rail transit has begun to be built in Datang state, it will also be a long-term project, which can not make him get a lot of merit soon.


    Therefore, if ye Zan wants to get a lot of merit as soon as possible, he still needs to think of other ways.


    Therefore, ye Zan thought of high-yield crops, which have a great impact on human beings in terms of people''s livelihood. You know, in the earth era of the world of science and technology, when science and technology were not very developed, the emergence of these high-yield crops saved countless lives.


    In this world, the crops that secular mortals have been planting, whether in terms of crop types or planting methods, can be said to be quite primitive. Many farmers at the bottom may barely starve to death from the harvest dug from the ground all year round. Therefore, if there is a disaster year, it is not uncommon for people to die of hunger everywhere, and it is not uncommon for people to change their children and eat.


    In terms of planting methods, ye Zan can''t make much change unless some scientific and technological things are added. After all, in terms of planting, people in the world have developed the original planting method to the extreme after thousands of years of development. If we add some scientific and technological things, such as a harvester, planter and other machinery, it is obviously unrealistic.


    Therefore, ye Zan decided to start with crops. Having high-yield food, at least not to starve to death, is already a great merit.


    In fact, after several generations of cultivation, Lingdao can also be regarded as a high-yield crop after losing the ability to convert Reiki. However, it is also certain that even if it becomes an ordinary high-yield crop, Lingdao will not be planted on a large scale in the secular world. After all, in terms of planting conditions, the planting requirements of Lingdao are still quite high, and they are picky about the planting environment such as soil.


    It can be imagined that when spiritual rice flows into the secular world, it will only become the table food of the powerful class, and it is unlikely to become the preferred food for the people at the bottom to survive the disaster.


    Of course, before preparing to launch these high-yield crops, just like rail transit, we still need to carry out social adaptability experiments in the small world. After all, the emergence of such high-yield crops will certainly have an impact on the whole society, such as the impact on food prices and various effects brought by changes in food prices.


    However, after preliminary calculation, ye Zan can be sure that the impact will not be too great, which will not directly cause some people to lose their jobs like rail transit. After all, food can''t be sold at a high price. It''s a necessity for human survival. If you have it, you won''t starve to death. For many people at the bottom struggling with food and clothing, it may be their biggest pursuit not to be starved to death.


    Therefore, ye Zan asked Yuqing Daogong to promote these high-yield crops in this small world. In addition to certain social adaptability experiments, it is more important to cultivate more seeds. After all, the seeds brought by Ye Zan from the world of science and technology are only used for laboratory samples, and the number is naturally very limited. What he can take out now, the seeds for the promotion of Yuqing Taoist palace, have been accelerated through the time of Yuqiu space. However, it is impossible for him to use the time acceleration of jade ball space to cultivate more seeds. In that way, the cost is too high, and the speed is not fast.


    Therefore, the best way is to let the small world plant on a large scale for several generations, then there will be enough seeds for large-scale promotion and planting in Shenhua domain.


    After hearing Ye Zan''s introduction to several crops, Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang stood up and solemnly saluted Ye Zan, saying, "we thank elder ye on behalf of all living beings in this world!"


    "Alas, the two elders don''t have to do this. I just take out these crops. The specific promotion and planting depends on the efforts of the two elders and all members of the Taoist palace." Ye Zan waved his hand and didn''t bother to explain the merits to each other.


    "Elder ye, don''t worry. Let us handle this matter. We will spread these crops in this field as soon as possible!" Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang assured Ye Zan.


    "Well, thank you, elders." Ye Zan nodded, and then took out one hundred treasure bags after another from the heaven and earth ring, which naturally contained those high-yield crop seeds.


    Li Tianying and Wang Mingyang also hurried to put away the treasure bags. Now Yuanying elders of Yuqing Taoist palace have been equipped with heaven and earth rings. Although the storage space is not very large, it is enough to pack some things. After all, for ordinary people, they don''t need to carry too many things. The most important thing is convenience. They don''t have to carry big and small bags everywhere.


    After explaining the high-yield crops, ye Zan and the two elders met the excellent disciples selected this time under the leadership of Ye Yi and others. These excellent disciples already know why they were chosen, so they are still a little excited.


    "Meet elder ye, elder Li and elder Wang!" after seeing ye Zan and the two elders, the twenty excellent disciples immediately bowed down to them.


    "Well, get up," said Ye Zan, raising his hand and giving them a virtual hand.


    With Ye Zan''s words, the twenty excellent disciples stood up one after another from the ground and stood there with their heads held high, like soldiers waiting for review.


    Ye Zan walked in front of the crowd and scanned the crowd with insight. This is the last test. Through the way of insight, he can clearly see the whole situation of everyone from inside to outside, even the cell vitality, the subtle characteristics of Zhenyuan and so on. Although these twenty people can''t compare with Qi Qianjun, their qualifications are still quite good. They can almost compare with the elite disciples of Tiandao mountain in those years.
