"Ancient Confucian Sect?" Zhu Yi's eyes flickered as he looked at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng nodded. "There was an ancient Confucian who started studying at the age of three. He had never come into contact with any Daoist techniques, nor did he have any Dharmic powers. He only focused on studying."
"This old man lived for a hundred years, which is considered a long life for mortals. When he was 103 years old, he was studying during a thunderstorm. Suddenly, he had an epiphany. A hundred years of wisdom and talent fused into one furnace. He broke through twelve floors in a row and opened up his Sea of Qi. Following that, he built his Bier Platform and condensed a pill cauldron."
At this point, Lin Feng was in awe. When he first saw this anecdote from the system, he found it unbelievable.
The great Confucian formed a pill cauldron in the morning and formed a golden elixir in a short period of time. In the morning, he saw longevity, in the afternoon, he knew the heavens, and in the evening, he was perfect.
Late at night, before the thunderstorm ended, the old man triggered the Lightning Tribulation and passed through it safely, forming a Yuanying.
Later, the great Confucian continued to cultivate, merging his knowledge with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, creating a brand new Daoist technique. With this, he finally achieved the Primordial Soul Great Dao and became free.
The orthodoxy he left behind was the Ancient Confucian Sect, an eternal legend in the cultivation world of the Divine Land.
However, as far as Lin Feng knew, the Ancient Confucian Sect had been annihilated a long time ago.
The reason was simple. It was very difficult to accumulate the scholarly aura to achieve the Dao. To be able to use this method to enter the Dao, one had to be a world-shaking scholar.
Even ordinary scholars who led the literary world for a while could not do it, let alone geniuses or child prodigies.
Only a great writer whose name would be immortalized in history would be able to reach such a level.
To put it bluntly, this was also a kind of cultivation method. Although it was said to be a day of enlightenment, the previous decades of hard work were actually preparation for building a foundation.
Moreover, it was a method that was rather difficult to cultivate. Most people who cultivated this method would study for their entire lives, but in the end, they would only be ordinary scholars.
At this time Lin Feng looked towards Jiao Junchen, thinking: "In that case, no matter if it's from the perspective of a cultivator or from the perspective of a scholar, this kid is a genius."
At this time, Jiao Junchen's actual age was only in his thirties. Reaching the Late-stage of Gold Core at such an age was extremely rare in the history of the human Cultivation World in the entire vast land of the Divine Land.
In the current Qin Dynasty, only Shi Tianyi, the Dual-Pupils who dug out Xiao Budian's Supreme Spiritual Platform was faster than him.
"Daoist Qing, Jiao Tianyi, Xiao Tianyi, Yu, Xiong, Xiong, and said," Xiong, of Xiong of Tianyi, Shi, Tian, Tian, Dao, Qing, Xiu, and Tian, Tian, Tian, Yi, Tian, Who was, and said of Tian. "Qin, Tian," Tian, "Tian, Xiao, Ren," Confucof of of of of of of the Tian Dao.
"If you don't follow the path of the Tian Dao, then you can't learn. Learning is bad. Is this your reasoning?"
Zhu Yi moved his fingers and said calmly, "You are the Minister of the Imperial Court of the Qin Dynasty, while I am just a commoner. I want to exchange knowledge with you. Even if you agree, I'm afraid you won't be happy in your heart.
"If your heart is unhappy and your mind is not calm, then there are only two results in learning. Either it will accumulate in your chest and you won't have any literary thoughts, and the article you write will be useless. Or, when you vent this anger, the article you write will be full of energy and swallow the mountains and rivers."
Jiao Junchen looked at Zhu Yi with surprise and nodded. "To be able to say this, I have to look at you in a different light. You do have some knowledge."
Zhu Yi laughed softly. "If your talent is stimulated by me, then I will only be happy. I'm just afraid that your chest will be stuffed with grass and you won't have any literary thoughts."
"But it doesn't matter. I will return to Tianjing City this year to participate in the imperial examinations of the Great Zhou Dynasty. After I finish, we can have a good exchange of knowledge. At that time, we can see whose knowledge is better."
Jiao Junchen looked at Zhu Yi and said with a smile, "Oh? That's very good. "
Zhu Yi looked at him and then said, "Knowledge can be compared in the future. At this spell conference, let's first compete with paths, skills, and magical abilities."
"It doesn't matter if we can't draw lots together. If you are willing, we can have a private exchange." Zhu Yi's tone was calm. "There is a saying that you and I, scholars, share. The Confucian Sage once said, when three people walk together, there will always be a teacher."
"Back in the day, the Confucian Sage once asked a child in his old age. For us scholars, the more we know, the more we don't know. It's worse for a scholar to develop an overweening temperament than a lone man."
Jiao Junchen stared at Zhu Yi for a long time. After a while, a smile appeared on his face. "Now, I suddenly hope that I can be in the same group as you, Brother Zhu."
Zhu Yi smiled when he heard this, but did not say anything else.
After watching Jiao Junchen and Shi Xingyun leave, Lin Feng turned to look at Zhu Yi and said with a smile, "Your exchange of words with this person has made your state of mind more clear. Now, you are on the verge of a breakthrough. You are only a thin layer away from the middle stage of the Golden Elixir, the state of knowing the Heavenly Connection."
Zhu Yi nodded. "Master, you are wise. I can indeed feel that I have reached a bottleneck."
He looked at Jiao Junchen's back and said slowly, "If I can defeat this person, I will be able to break through the barrier of that layer immediately."
Jiao Junchen's visit was considered a small interlude. At first, the others thought that he would fight Zhu Yi in real life. However, when they saw that he had left so quickly, they lost interest.
Everyone's attention returned to the drawing of lots. This time, they were going to draw lots for the top four in the Foundational Stage.
Wang Lin, Yue Hongyan, Shi Shaoqian, and Dao Yuting could be said to be the best among their peers at their age and realm. Their abilities had been completely revealed in their previous matches.
Everyone was concerned about what kind of combination the four of them would use in the duel.
In particular, Wang Lin and Yue Hongyan were fellow disciples of the same sect. After taking three of the top eight spots, the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Celestial Sect of the Cel
Most people were actually hoping that Wang Lin and Yue Hongyan would be in the same group.
Xuanmen Tianzong was a monster. It was best to let them fight among themselves.
Lin Feng also stared at the copper bottle in front of Dao Master Changle. If there was another internal fight, he would really curse.
Tiny Tot and the others were also a little nervous. They were still looking forward to the finals between Wang Lin and Yue Hongyan, so that they could help their sect secure the first place in advance.
In addition to Xuanmen Tianzong's own people, there was another person in the audience who was sincerely praying that Wang Lin and Yue Hongyan would not be in the same group.
Jiao Junchen looked at Shi Xingyun in surprise. "How come I've never heard that you and Xuanmen Tianzong are so close before?"
Shi Xingyun shook his head. "I've heard about you for a long time, but today is the first time I've met you."
Jiao Junchen asked curiously, "But isn't the civil war in Xuanmen Tianzong more beneficial for your cousin Shi Shaoqian?"
"Although I didn't watch the previous matches, I heard that the disciples of Xuanmen Tianzong are really good at fighting. What's more, they are all outstanding."
Shi Xingyun smiled bitterly. "The only opponent I hope Shaoqian will be matched against is Wang Lin."
"He's the weakest?" Jiao Junchen asked curiously. Unexpectedly, Shi Xingyun's face revealed a smile that was uglier than crying. "No, it's only because he's a man."
Jiao Junchen was even more puzzled. "So what?"
Shi Xingyun's face revealed an awkward expression. He said with some difficulty, "My cousin is good at everything, but when he meets women … Hmm, young and beautiful women, he … he …"
Jiao Junchen came to a realization. "Judging from his usual cold appearance, it turns out that he's a man who has tender feelings for women."
Then, he keenly noticed that Shi Xingyun's expression became even more awkward, which made him even more puzzled.
"What is there to be cold about? That was all taught by others. It's all an act …" Great Qin's Star Nebula Princess mumbled, "In short, all the gods and buddhas are watching over him. Even if he loses because of this, it's fine."
At that moment, the results of the drawing of lots were finally out.
In the semifinals, Yue Hongyan would be matched against Shi Shaoqian, while Wang Lin's opponent would be Dao Yuting.
Shi Xingyun raised her head and let out a long sigh. "It's over!"
On Lin Feng's side, Tiny Tot suddenly smiled. "Fourth Senior Sister, that guy is looking at you."
When Yue Hongyan heard this, she looked up and saw Shi Shaoqian staring at her. His gaze was very strange, and it carried a complicated and incomprehensible meaning.
"I don't care who he is, I'll still hit him with my fists," Yue Hongyan said indifferently after taking a glance at him.
Lin Feng smiled and sent a telepathic message to Yue Hongyan using his transcendence energy.
Yue Hongyan was a little surprised after hearing this. He turned to look at Lin Feng. Lin Feng nodded gently. Yue Hongyan took a deep breath and looked more serious. "I'll remember Master's warning. I'll be careful when the time comes."
On the other side, the disciples of the Tianchi Sect looked at Xuanmen Tianzong with unfriendly gazes, especially Fang Zhong, who was glaring at Yang Qing with hatred.
When Yang Qing made eye contact with him, she could not help but be shocked. She wanted to turn around instinctively, but Wang Lin, who was next to her, said calmly, "You lost to him. What are you afraid of?"
Yang Qing smiled bitterly and looked at Wang Lin. Wang Lin looked indifferent. "If he still dares to hate you now, it means that you didn't beat him up hard enough. You didn't beat him up enough. This kind of person is like a stray dog. When he meets someone fiercer than him, he'll immediately shrink back."
Among the Tianchi Sect's disciples in the Foundation Establishment Stage, the one who had a relatively normal expression was Dao Yuting. Her long black hair was draped over her back, her beautiful face was snow-white, and her lips were so pale that they were almost colorless.
Her expression remained cold. Even when she looked at her opponent, Wang Lin, her expression did not change much.
When Wang Lin met her gaze, there was no warmth in his eyes. It was so cold that it sent chills down everyone's spines.
The first match was between Yue Hongyan and Shi Shaoqian. After Yue Hongyan bowed to Lin Feng, he walked toward the Hidden Dragon Pot.
Shi Shaoqian followed closely behind him and entered the Hidden Dragon Pot. The two of them stood tens of meters away from each other.
Shi Xingyun stared nervously at the scene projected by the light at the mouth of the pot. She opened her mouth slightly and muttered to herself, "Please don't, please don't..."
Lin Feng noticed this and felt a little strange. He then realized that there was something wrong with Shi Zongyue's expression as well. He was staring at Shi Shaoqian with a hint of worry in his eyes.
Just as Yue Hongyan was about to make his move, Shi Shaoqian suddenly raised his hand and said, "Wait!"
