After reading it, Si Wuya's exhaustion and dispiritedness disappeared.
He was even more excited than before.
For an ordinary person to focus and work for an entire night, only a young person who was in the prime of his life could do that. For cultivators, it was not difficult for them to work through the night. However, Si Wuya's cultivation base was restricted. It was slightly strenuous for him to solve these questions. He spent the night with dark circles under his eyes.
When Si Wuya received the question, he seemed to have been injected with adrenaline as he began to study it.
Normally, he would not have bothered to study it. However, this question was given by his master. When he thought about it, he became excited.
Zhu Honggong was speechless.
He thought to himself, 'This is bad. Seventh Senior Brother's really possessed. So what if you manage to divine it?'
"Seventh Senior Brother?"
Zhu Honggong waved his hand. Si Wuya pretended not to see him.
Zhu Honggong sighed softly. With his big belly, he left the Cave of Reflection with his hands on his back.
It was not easy for him to put on the airs of a master. It felt good.
As soon as he walked out of the Cave of Reflection, he saw Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng walking toward him.
"Greetings, Mister Eighth," the two of them said in unison.
Zhu Honggong cleared his throat and said in an imposing manner, "What's the matter?"
"Nothing. We're just here to take a look. We heard that you spent the entire night solving the questions, Mister Seventh. We're interested as well, "Pan Zhong said.
"If you have the time, you might as well cultivate." Zhu Honggong rolled his eyes at the two of them.
Zhu Honggong tossed the piece of paper to the two of them.
"Thank you, Mister Eighth."
The question spread like wildfire in the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Apart from cultivating, all they did was eat, drink, defecate, and sleep. It was inevitable that their lives were lacking. Now that this question appeared, everyone began to study it.
Lu Zhou had been meditating on the Heavenly Writing scrolls in his room. He did not expect his unintentional actions to attract everyone's attention.
The next morning.
Before daybreak, Lu Zhou heard a notification.
"Ding! Disciplined Si Wuya. Reward: 200 merit points."
"Ding! Disciplined Si Wuya. Reward: 200 merit points."
There were two notifications this time. This was interesting.
'Looks like I'll have to come up with a few more questions to teach this rascal a lesson. I'll show him that there's always someone better out there.
"Greetings, master." Zhu Honggong's voice rang in the air.
"Come in."
After spending some time with Zhu Honggong, he was no longer as reserved as he used to be. Instead, he seemed more at ease.
When he entered the room, he saw his master sitting cross-legged. He bowed and said,
"Master, Seventh Senior Brother solved that question yesterday, and his answer was the same as yours."
Lu Zhou's expression remained unchanged.
That question was just an appetizer. The strange thing was that if he solved it, he would be rewarded with merit points.
"What about the second question?" Lu Zhou asked.
"I think Seventh Senior Brother will be able to undo it, but … judging from the way he's scratching his ears and cheeks, I'm sure it's painful," Zhu Honggong said.
"The one on the table, give it to him."
"Your disciple understands."
…
Zhu Honggong brought the answers to the second and third questions to the Cave of Reflection.
"Seventh Senior Brother, the answer is here. And the third question … "
Si Wuya hastily took the answer and compared it with the new question. Then, he exclaimed in admiration,
"Wonderful, truly wonderful."
Zhu Honggong looked at the stone table in the Cave of Reflection. There were two cracks on it. "Seventh Senior Brother, did you do this?"
"I couldn't help myself," Si Wuya said as he looked at the paper.
"Seventh Senior Brother, stop solving the questions. It's boring."
"Get out."
Si Wuya's voice was cold and emotionless.
"Huh?" Zhu Honggong was taken aback. He hastily said, "I'll leave now."
After Zhu Honggong left, Si Wuya calmed down.
Si Wuya calmed down and muttered to himself, "23, 128 … 233 … I'm only one of them?"
I've never seen master use such a method to express himself … It's an eye-opener … "
The answers on the paper did not only contain the answers, but there were also hypothetical unknowns.
For an intelligent person like Si Wuya, the slightest hint of an answer was enough to enlighten him.
How could he not be shocked when he saw this?
As for the third question, to be more precise, it was the third piece of paper. After reading it, Si Wuya was stunned for a long time.
He finally understood that the first two questions were merely appetizers.
On the third piece of paper, there were triangles, circles, and symbols that Si Wuya could not understand.
Indeed, he could not understand them.
This was because the third piece of paper contained higher-level geometry and algebra.
Even before Lu Zhou transmigrated here, he would have been troubled by these questions as well, let alone Si Wuya who had never encountered such concepts.
This was the fear of being dominated by countless students.
"Ding! Disciplined Si Wuya. Reward: 200 merit points."
After three notifications, Lu Zhou finally nodded in satisfaction.
'Even I have a headache just by looking at these questions, let alone you.'
The third piece of paper contained algebra and geometry.
For a world that lacked basic mathematical concepts, it was as though they were reading the Heavenly Book.
Si Wuya was not an ordinary person. If he studied them for some time, he should be able to understand them, right?
With this thought in mind, Lu Zhou closed his eyes and continued to meditate on the Heavenly Writing scrolls.
In the afternoon.
The others from the Evil Sky Pavilion had already given up on solving the questions.
This was because being stuck in this state for a long time could easily torture them to the point where they wished they were dead.
In the evening, Si Wuya looked at the questions on the paper. He seemed to be in a daze.
It was as though he had become a lot dumber.
This was how humans were. When they encountered something difficult, their confidence would be shaken, and they would easily doubt themselves.
Si Wuya was no exception.
Little did he know that the others from the Evil Sky Pavilion had long since given up.
On the third day, the fourth day, the fifth day …
Si Wuya studied the questions on the paper.
The more he studied them, the more he realized how difficult the questions were.
…
Five days passed in just a blink of an eye.
Lu Zhou's meditating on the Heavenly Writing scrolls was going smoothly. The Heavenly Writing's extraordinary power was already full.
However, he did not know what the fourth Heavenly Writing power was.
Now that he had comprehended the power, it was time for the item cards to increase in value.
He opened the item column. As expected, all the cards had increased by 500 points.
Lu Zhou was cursing the system inwardly when a voice rang from outside.
"Master, Seventh Senior Brother wants to see you."
Upon hearing this, Lu Zhou's expression remained unchanged.
'This rascal won't be able to solve the problem on the paper.'
"What is it?"
"Seventh Senior Brother wants to ask you about the solution to the problem on the paper."
"He wants to ask for guidance?"
Zhu Honggong could tell that his master was slightly angry. He hastily said, "I'll pass the message to him."
After Zhu Honggong left.
Lu Zhou stroked his beard and looked out the window. 'Do you think I can't teach you a lesson?'
Over the next few days.
Lu Zhou gradually increased the difficulty of the questions. He did not expect Si Wuya to solve them. Instead, he wanted Si Wuya to understand the meaning behind the questions.
There was no end to learning. The more Si Wuya understood mathematics, the more he would understand its secrets.
…
Inside the Cave of Reflection, Si Wuya was just as Lu Zhou had said.
As he gained a deeper understanding of the questions, he discovered they were much more difficult than he had imagined.
His appearance had also undergone an earth-shattering transformation from before.
He was tormented to the point where he resembled a madman. His hair was disheveled, and his mind was focused on the pile of paper.
Pan Zhong glanced at Si Wuya before he turned around and left. "I can't believe Mister Seventh has become like this.
"Those questions are simply insane and make one's hair stand on end."
"Forget it. You can't even understand them."
Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng were about to leave the back of the mountain.
A female disciple ran over to them.
Pan Zhong frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Princess Yong Ning's condition has worsened. Someone has reported this to the pavilion master! I'll inform Mister Seventh, "the female disciple said hastily.
At this moment, Si Wuya, who had always ignored the outside world, appeared at the entrance of the Cave of Reflection.
He had dark circles under his eyes and a haggard expression. He frowned as he asked, "What's wrong with Yong Ning?"
