The woman who spoke was called Ye Qing, ranked seventh in the academy. She was slightly less beautiful than Tang Sanghua, but she was still a rare beauty.
It was a pity that her face, which could be either angry or happy, and which always wore light or heavy makeup, was expressionless from morning to night, as if everyone owed her money. Her beautiful eyes often revealed an inexplicable resentment and sadness, as if she was the most unfortunate person in the world.
In Yan Li's eyes, this was a pitiful and self-pitying person.
Was it not pitiful to be trapped in a prison of misery and not change? This kind of person only knew how to blame others and blame heaven, and feel pity for herself. There was no medicine that could save her.
Yan Li couldn't be bothered to get angry at this woman's provocation.
He chuckled and said, "Only a smile is the secret to eternal youth. Women have to pay attention to this. Otherwise, once you're over thirty, you'll become an old woman in the eyes of others."
With that, he passed through the crowd and entered the dormitory.
"Yan Li, you stinking bastard, I'm speaking the truth. You're not even in the top ten. Don't you find it embarrassing to stand with us?"
Tang Sanghua cursed at his back, then grabbed Ye Qing's hand and comforted, "That bastard doesn't have anything good to say. Don't bother with him."
Ye Qing broke free from her hand and lightly shook her head. "As you said, I'm speaking the truth. How he responds is his own business."
Tang Sanghua didn't get angry at being snubbed. She giggled and chatted with the crowd.
Not long after, the class bell rang. Everyone entered the dormitory one by one and sat at the corresponding table.
About fifteen minutes later, the Buddha Wisdom Painting arrived as scheduled, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
She wasn't particularly good-looking. In terms of appearance, she might not even be as good as Ye Qing. But she had an otherworldly quality that made her stand on the podium like the center of the world. Everyone's eyes couldn't move away.
This wasn't the magic of charm, but the result of her temperament.
It was as if just looking at her could cleanse one's soul; it was also like seeing an old friend you had known for a long time, the joy of meeting again after a long separation spread from the bottom of your heart, making you want to hold her hand and tell her many, many things that you normally didn't want to or dare to say.
"Hello everyone, I am the Buddha Wisdom Diagram." The Buddha Wisdom Diagram smiled.
There was no focus in her beautiful eyes. They were so dull and empty. But as soon as she smiled, the room was filled with fragrance. Everyone was moved and sighed.
They were moved by how sincere her smile was. Even though there was endless darkness in front of her, she used her smile to tell everyone that her heart was filled with boundless hope. It was such a contrast that moved the hearts of the crowd.
He sighed at the cruelty of the Creator. Such a nearly perfect person was born blind. In her heart, the world was completely dependent on other people's descriptions and her own imagination. This was such a sad thing.
However, regardless of whether it was sorrow or joy, it could not be seen on the face of the Wisdom Buddha Diagram. It was as if there was nothing in this world that could make her happy, and nothing that could make her sad. She paid the price of passing through the endless darkness to see through the frosty feelings of the world. Her heart was as steady as a rock.
Everyone was affected by her. The violent, manic, and other negative energies had mostly dissipated. Their hearts were clear and bright, unprecedentedly calm.
At first glance, everyone liked this girl who was favored by the heavens. They shouted in unison, "Hello, Teacher!"
The Buddha Wisdom Diagram nodded slightly. She didn't feel happy or sad for herself. "Today, I've come to talk about the rise and fall of cultivation sects. After understanding it, you will have a clearer understanding of the current state of the world. "
After the greetings, she went straight to the main topic.
Yan Li's heart was moved. He couldn't help but listen attentively.
The Buddha Wisdom Diagram saw that no one had anything to say, so she continued, "History is the most precious and dazzling essence of humanity. History has an unchangeable sacredness, but time cannot be turned back. Many historical records can no longer be verified. So, what I've told everyone today is what I think is correct history. If you have different opinions, you can bring them up and discuss them together. "
Seeing that no one had anything to say, she continued, "The cultivation civilization of the divine continent began more than seven hundred years ago. At that time, the divine continent was ruled by the Great Wei Dynasty. One night, a nebula tide suddenly descended from the sea of stars. Overnight, countless unfamiliar faces appeared in the divine continent. They established hundreds of cultivation sects, and the divine continent entered the cultivation era. "
"The historical records that recorded their origins have been destroyed. We only know that they came from a domain that was a hundred times larger than the divine continent. But to this day, no one knows the location of the gate connecting the two places. Hundreds of cultivation sects used the divine continent as a battlefield. They started a fierce battle, and the innocent mortals who were affected numbered in the hundreds of millions … "
The Buddha Wisdom Diagram's expression was sorrowful. When she first heard this part, she was so sad that she almost cried.
Even though so much time had passed, her heart was still very sad.
Everyone's minds swayed. It was hard to imagine the scene of hundreds of cultivation sects fighting.
The Buddha Wisdom Diagram composed herself and said, "Because of this, hundreds of millions of mortals returned to the sea of stars. Due to the pressure of death, large numbers of mortals flocked to the various sects, trying to enter them to cultivate and avoid this pressure. At that time, many bright stars appeared, and with their exceptional cultivation talent, they shone brightly in the divine continent … But because of this, the divine continent's cultivation resources were crazily plundered, and the fighting intensified … "
"After nearly three hundred years of fighting, a large number of cultivation sects were destroyed, and this chaos finally came to an end. Among the surviving sects, there was a sect called the Dao Heaven Sect, which wanted to overthrow the Great Wei and replace it. The precarious Great Wei completely fell apart, and all the large sects fought again for the world … "
"After that, it was our dynasty's founding ancestor who stood out and destroyed the cultivation sects. He burned a large number of techniques and ended the cruel fighting brought about by the cultivators, creating immeasurable merit."
The Buddha Wisdom Diagram paused here, then said, "Today, I will briefly explain the origin of cultivation. The historical records can no longer be verified, so it is inconvenient to elaborate on the guesses of the people in the future. Next time, I will explain the cultivation history of our dynasty. Today, we will stop here. If you have any questions, you can ask. "
Yan Li immediately asked, "What is the Nebula Tide?"
The Buddha Wisdom Diagram said, "It is a very rare phenomenon, and it only appears once in a hundred years. Every time it appears, there will be Yuan Meteor Stones appearing all over the divine continent. Shadowless Starlight Thread, Sky Mystic Stone, and other treasures are refined from Yuan Meteor Stones. "
Hearing about Shadowless Starlight Thread, Yan Li's heart moved. If he wanted to complete the refinement of Li Ya, he had to continue to invest in Shadowless Starlight Thread. Shadowless Starlight Thread was measured in portions, and one portion was about five qian. On the market, one portion was worth a hundred taels of gold. Considering the initial investment of Li Ya, this was an astronomical figure.
However, Li Ya perfectly solved the drawbacks of the Heart Cleansing Mantra. Moreover, when the Sword Heart Realization was cultivated to a high level, the requirements for the sword were especially high. Li Ya, which had form but no substance, was also a perfect choice. In the future, he might even be able to use it to control the sword. Therefore, with these two reasons, no matter how high the price, he wanted to try.
If he had no money, he just had to think of a way to earn it.
Tang Sanghua also asked, "Sir, is the Nebula Tide related to the cultivators who suddenly appeared in the divine continent?"
The Buddha Wisdom Diagram said, "Various signs show that the cultivators outside took advantage of the Nebula Tide to break in. Although there have been several tides since then, there have been no more. "
Someone else asked, "Sir, are there still cultivators from the sects now?"
The person who asked the question obviously came from a remote place. If one knew a little about history, he should know how many terrible things the remnants of the sects had done in the past hundred years.
Although in recent years, the remnants of the sects had almost disappeared without a trace, it did not mean that their threat had disappeared.
There was a saying that was widely spread in the divine continent: the remnants of the sects are everywhere. Perhaps they are among the people you know, perhaps they are sleeping with you in each other's arms.
The Buddha Wisdom Diagram smiled and did not answer.
…
Zhao Qiping never dreamed that he would end up in such a miserable situation after being sent off in such a grand manner. Not to mention that he was ashamed to face his fellow villagers and elders, even to himself, he felt extremely ashamed.
The instructor had absolute control over the students of the academy.
Jiang Changtian had said that he would be sent to Yuan Province, and even the Supreme Court could not change this result.
No one knew better than Zhao Qiping what kind of place Yuan Province was. It was a land of bloodshed, a battlefield dyed red with blood.
Killing, bloodshed, and violence would forever be the main theme of Yuan Province.
Coming out from there, one had to return there.
This was really ironic!
After packing his luggage, Zhao Qiping set off in the afternoon under the urging of the escort officer.
Recalling what happened in the morning, Zhao Qiping was angry and at a loss.
Until now, he did not understand Yan Li's attitude. He did not know if he had saved him or harmed him.
He wanted to exert his strength to hate him, but his heart was empty, and there was a sense of powerlessness that made him give up resisting.
As a student of the academy, he was exempt from the shackles, so the passersby on the road did not point fingers at him. This made him feel a little better.
When he came to the city gate, he suddenly saw a familiar figure. His heart warmed, and he hurried over, shouting, "Brother, Brother Yan, you came to save me?"
Yan Li crossed his arms and leaned against the wall under the door. He looked at him lightly and said, "I did not come to save you."
Zhao Qiping's heart went cold, and the blood in his body froze. He lost his last hope.
He said dejectedly, "Is that so? Then why did you come?"
Yan Li said lightly, "No one can save you, only you."
Zhao Qiping gritted his teeth and said, "I have already ended up like this, how can I save myself? If you came to see me make a fool of myself, then please go back. I am going on my way! "
Yan Li frowned slightly. This Zhao Qiping, made him feel slightly disappointed.
He shook his head and took out a banknote worth five hundred taels of silver, handing it to him and said, "I have never acknowledged you as a friend. I am not now, and I will not be in the future. "
Zhao Qiping originally wanted to refuse, but five hundred taels of silver was not a small amount. He hesitated for a moment, but still took it.
Then he said mockingly, "Just take it as a reward for letting you watch a good show!" After saying this, he walked past Yan Li.
Yan Li turned around, and the two walked further and further away.
In reality, they had never come close.
"Because I have never had a friend. Not now, and I will not have one in the future. But, at least I will kill him for you! "
The voice gradually faded away.
