As the saying goes, learning starts from a baby.
Fang Zhengzhi had the memories of his past life. However, when he accessed Dao, his body was that of a baby. This was why he was able to memorize the Law of Dao.
The feeling of being able to completely recite a page of a piece of paper after reading it twice was naturally not something that an adult could experience and understand.
Fang Zhengzhi did not know why the candidates were so shocked. As such, he could not understand how Nangong Hao felt when he heard Fang Zhengzhi say that it was too little.
"120 Daos is too little?!" It was rare for Nangong Hao to feel emotional. However, he couldn't imagine that Fang Zhengzhi had more than 120 Daos!
Nangong Hao was a genius.
He naturally had the foresight of a genius. It was the same logic as a second-rank official in the imperial court not paying attention to the movements of a seventh-rank minor official.
Even so, before Nangong Hao left the Nangong Family, he took seven days and seven nights to understand Fang Zhengzhi's information in detail.
This included information that was circulated in the outside world, as well as information that was not circulated in the outside world.
For example...
Nangong Hao sent people to infiltrate the Northern Mountain Village and Southern Mountain Village to collect and organize all of Fang Zhengzhi's stories.
It had to be said that Nangong Hao had done a good job.
Based on his experiences and stories, he was able to deduce how Fang Zhengzhi dealt with problems. Furthermore, he was more powerful than Fang Zhengzhi.
Nangong Hao was confident that he would win.
In reality, everything was within Nangong Hao's control. This included Fang Zhengzhi's mysterious disappearance from the Intellectual Loft and his sudden appearance in the Southern Mountain Range.
All of this was within Nangong Hao's calculations.
Four years of seclusion...
Of course, Nangong Hao's appearance would definitely cause a commotion. He made use of the information network around the NanGong Nobles and delivered a perfect report on the young lord of the Demon Race to Emperor Lin Mubai.
Then, during the theory examination, he had obtained the title of the Demon Leader.
Everything was going according to his plan. However, the fact that Fang Zhengzhi had grasped more than 100 Daos had never appeared in his intelligence reports.
"Could it be that Fang Zhengzhi has never mentioned this to anyone?" Nangong Hao felt that this was the only explanation.
However, this explanation was a little too far-fetched.
After all …
Fang Zhengzhi was not someone who kept a low profile.
With such a high-profile and shameless personality, how could he hide a huge secret that could shake the Great Xia Dynasty for so long and never reveal it?
Nangong Hao couldn't figure out what was going on no matter how he thought about it.
Of course, Nangong Hao neglected one point. He didn't expect that Fang Zhengzhi, who was also the top scorer in the theory examination, would be so 'ignorant' that he didn't even know what it meant to grasp 100 Daos.
Fang Zhengzhi really didn't know, because he had mentioned to Chi Guyan under the moonlight that he had two to three hundred Daos in his pocket dimension.
However, Chi Guyan did not praise Fang Zhengzhi for his greatness. Instead, she made a "master-servant" pact with Fang Zhengzhi.
She looked at Nangong Hao, who remained silent.
Fang Zhengzhi was getting impatient. He had mentioned that he had more than 100 Daos in his pocket dimension to refute Nangong Hao's point of view. Furthermore, he wanted to intimidate Nangong Hao.
However, he had never thought of playing a number riddle game with Nangong Hao.
As such, when Fang Zhengzhi saw that Nangong Hao was silent, he raised three fingers and waved them in front of Nangong Hao.
"130 Daos?!" Nangong Hao's expression finally changed when he saw Fang Zhengzhi's three fingers. His calm eyes even lit up.
If Fang Zhengzhi's promise of a fair duel previously made him see Fang Zhengzhi as an opponent worthy of his respect, then, this time …..
This was the first time he had taken Fang Zhengzhi seriously.
"He actually grasped 130 Daos?!"
All of the candidates were stunned when they heard Nangong Hao's words. This was way beyond their expectations.
However, just as the candidates were about to express their thoughts, an angry voice rang out.
"Nangong Hao, are you retarded or something? Three fingers were worth one hundred and thirty? 300, do you know what 300 is?! "
Fang Zhengzhi rarely doubted his opponent's intelligence. Especially when his opponent was the number one talent in the world, Nangong Hao.
However, he could not take it anymore.
Was his reminder not obvious enough?
You said 100. Fine, I said it was too little.
At a time like this, you said 120.
Fine, no problem. If you don't want to multiply it, I will tell you directly. You should know that I will raise three fingers right?
However …
How dare you say that three fingers is 130?!
How could he take it?
Fang Zhengzhi did not know if the others could. However, he could not take it anymore. He did not care if you were the number one talent in the world. He was cursing your stupid intelligence.
Fang Zhengzhi's voice was loud.
At the very least, all of the candidates could hear it clearly.
However, they could not react in time.
There were two reasons for this. Firstly, Fang Zhengzhi was clearly saying that Nangong Hao had something wrong with his brain. That was a very direct statement.
However, this straightforward sentence was so shocking.
This feeling was like a little carpenter with no reputation running in front of Lu Ban and shouting, "Do you know how to use an axe?!"
Or, it could be said that an unknown soldier pointed a broadsword at Guan Yu and said, "Come, come, come, I'll teach you how to wield a broadsword!"
Was he questioning Nangong Hao's intelligence?!
After all, even the current Emperor did not dare to say the same thing. In other words, in the entire world, other than Fang Zhengzhi, there was no one else who would have such thoughts.
As for the second point …
It was the 300 that Fang Zhengzhi was talking about!
300?
What did that mean?
Was he talking about silver? Or gold? He could not be talking about Dao, right? 300 Daos? Could he not make such a joke?
The highest number of Daos in history was 183. Furthermore, he was already 90 years old. How old was Fang Zhengzhi? He was only 15 or 16 years old and he had already mastered 300 Daos?
Who would believe that?
All of the candidates would not believe it.
Nangong Hao did not want to believe it either. However, Fang Zhengzhi's words were too clear. After all, it was a rather harsh statement.
"Three... three hundred Daos?!" There was only one thought in Nangong Hao's mind right now. He had a good attitude, and he had a state of mind that was as calm as an ancient well.
However, at this moment, he felt his state of mind being shaken.
This was an unparalleled shock!
Wu Feng, Chen Feiyu, and Xing Qingsui, who was holding the Emperor's Token in his hand, were also affected by this impact.
Even Yan Xiu, who knew that Fang Zhengzhi had mastered many Daos, gaped in shock.
He had indeed heard Fang Zhengzhi mention this before.
However, he did not pay too much attention to this matter at that time. After all, it was relatively common to see people who had grasped more than 40 or 50 Daos in this world.
Of course, when Fang Zhengzhi said that he mastered more than 100 Daos, Yan Xiu was a little taken aback. However, it was just a little.
In his heart, Fang Zhengzhi was a unique genius.
As such...
It was not surprising that Fang Zhengzhi had some special abilities.
However, when this kind of extraordinary ability was so exaggerated that it was unprecedented, anyone who heard it would probably be so shocked that their head wouldn't be able to turn around, right?
Nangong Hao was silent.
All of the other candidates were silent as well.
Yan Xiu, Wu Feng, Chen Feiyu, and Xing Qingsui were also silent.
After Fang Zhengzhi scolded Nangong Hao, he felt that he had vented a lot of his frustrations. Then, he thought about it and felt that he had not given Nangong Hao much face.
After all, Nangong Hao did not scold him.
Fang Zhengzhi was not a person who cared much about etiquette. He had always been a casual person. He would scold and fight whenever he felt like it.
However, it was not nice of him to scold someone when he was not scolding him.
Therefore, after seeing Nangong Hao's silence, he thought about it and decided to ease the awkward atmosphere.
Profiting by apologizing?
That was too vulgar and unnecessary.
Fang Zhengzhi chose his own method to ease the atmosphere. He used a sincere and honest heart to let the other party feel his sincerity.
"Okay, 300 is just a rough number. If I want to be more specific, I have 388 Daos in my pocket dimension!" Fang Zhengzhi told her the number that he had never told anyone before. He heaved a sigh of relief.
Honesty.
This was the greatest honesty!
After all, cultivation was like a person's moves. Everyone had their own secrets. Who would tell their opponent how many moves they knew for no reason?
Very few people could do that.
However, Fang Zhengzhi had done it. He had told Nangong Hao the exact number of Daos in his pocket dimension. This was equivalent to telling Nangong Hao how many techniques he knew.
Of course...
There was another reason why Fang Zhengzhi did this. He felt that even if he told Nangong Hao, Nangong Hao would not be able to do anything about it.
After all, it was almost impossible to calculate the exact number of changes that could be produced after the combination of 388 Daos.
This was a confidence that came from the bottom of his heart.
However, when Fang Zhengzhi displayed his perfect confidence, the effect it produced surprised him and made him feel a little confused.
"What's wrong with Nangong Hao?" Fang Zhengzhi looked at Nangong Hao, who seemed to be in a daze. He could not understand what was going on.
Oh?
Did the number one talent become stupid?
Could it be that the number one scholar in the world was touched by my sincerity?
Fang Zhengzhi couldn't understand, so he subconsciously looked behind him. Soon, he realized that the scenery behind him was even more exaggerated than Nangong Hao's.
"Ding ding dang dang" sounds could be heard without end.
That was the sound of weapons falling to the ground. Other than that, Fang Zhengzhi saw the mouths of all of the candidates open wide. Their eyeballs were about to pop out of their sockets.
Fang Zhengzhi did not know how to describe all of this perfectly.
If he really had to use a phrase to describe it, he could only find a more common one, and that would be, "At a glance, everyone is stupefied!"
"388?!"
"He said there are a total of 388 types …"
All of the candidates were in a daze.
In fact, when Fang Zhengzhi said that to Nangong Hao, they were already in a daze. Now, they had no reaction at all.
What did 388 Daos mean?
That was absolute dominance!
It was a kind of suppression that no one in the past and no one in the future would be able to achieve.
There was a person in history who had mastered 183 Daos and reached the Rebirth State. He was the most powerful person in the Rebirth State at that time.
Although he did not become a Saint in one go, the title of number one in the Rebirth State still made him a Marquis in the imperial court.
There had been people who wondered what would happen if this person really became a Saint.
This was an extremely terrifying thought.
No one dared to imagine it. However, this thought had always existed. How powerful would a person who mastered more than 100 Daos be if he became a sage?
But...
300!
Or three hundred and eighty-eight?
What kind of "possibility" was that?
The most powerful person in the Heavenly Reflection State!
All of a sudden, all of the candidates were enlightened. They remembered when Fang Zhengzhi had participated in the Imperial Examinations. At that time, Fang Zhengzhi had also broken through less than a month ago.
Everyone thought that Fang Zhengzhi was only in the beginning stages of the Heavenly Reflection State. He was on a completely different level compared to Su Donglin, Xing Qingsui, and Nangong Mu.
But reality?
In his first battle with Su Donglin, Fang Zhengzhi had shown that he was strong enough to take on Su Donglin. Then, in the finals of the Imperial Examinations, he defeated Nangong Mu, who was in the pinnacle of the Heavenly Reflection State and had mastered the Green and Blue Secret Art of the Nangong Family. Finally, he dragged Yan Xiu off the stage.
This was something that none of the candidates understood.
They did not understand how Fang Zhengzhi, who had just broken through to the Heavenly Reflection State and did not have any special abilities or secret techniques, could have such luck and power. He did not have any special skills or secret techniques.
But now, they understood.
Fang Zhengzhi had 388 Daos in his pocket dimension. In other words, Fang Zhengzhi was the most powerful person in the Heavenly Reflection State!
