Chapter 56: The Fifty-Sixth Day of a Successful Live Tutorial on Game Creation...
After speaking, Kong Xuan pulled out a book in full view of everyone.
"Class is now officially beginning. Please return to your seats." The boy sat up straight, but his words carried weight.
The phoenix's songs and dances are also one of the phoenix clan's attack methods.
The infants, who had not yet developed their senses, crawled out of their parents' arms and came to Kong Xuan.
Seeing this, Kong Xuan nodded in satisfaction. Indeed, children were more enthusiastic about learning. The Xingxing who had been roaring behind them now dared not utter a sound.
With danger lurking in the shadows, they pursued the beast with the intention of rescuing their leader. But now their leader was hanging before the beast's jaws, their tribe's supernatural powers had been utterly crushed, and even the young members of the tribe had been bewitched.
A single move can have far-reaching consequences. Right now, the Xingxing (a mythical creature) truly dare not move, merely standing still and waiting for their fate to arrive.
The peacock did nothing; he continued reading the book: "The Great Way is formless..."
[No way, all this effort to put together just to read to them? Is this kid crazy?]
The people of the prehistoric world naturally didn't know the purpose of the live broadcast; they only felt that Kong Xuan was deliberately trying to attract attention.
However, some people discerned something interesting. Although forcing NPCs to teach was indeed a bit strange, what Kong Xuan said was true.
"Simple and easy to understand, profound yet accessible, every word a gem." Those who didn't understand were still watching the spectacle, while those who did understand were already calling upon their disciples.
"Guang Chengzi, Yu Ding, you two arrange for the other junior brothers to listen to this lesson carefully." Yuan Shi gave the order to his disciples from afar.
Although Kong Xuan's explanations were extremely rudimentary, consisting mainly of introductory techniques for cultivating the Tao, they were remarkably well-organized, breaking down the fundamental knowledge into even simpler parts.
Even the Xingxing, who had previously resisted, couldn't help but lean closer to listen attentively while remaining wary, their eyes showing a look of fascination.
The largest leader, hanging above, was listening to the lecture while trying to escape. Occasionally, he would become so engrossed that if he slowed down even slightly, he could enjoy the foul smell from the beast's mouth and the sensation of its sharp teeth scraping against his skin.
Thus, Kong Xuan's lectures captivated all the Xingxing, and even the previously noisy chat screens have now turned into discussions about the basics of entering the Dao.
The previously confused Xingxing, following Kong Xuan's sermon, had their eyes clear, their minds opened, and they were reborn.
Seeing that the "students" in front of him had finally calmed down and were willing to listen attentively, Kong Xuan was also very pleased. He began to explain the appropriate path to the Xingxing based on their racial characteristics.
"A good runner is agile and swift as the wind..."
"That's what they're talking about!" The Xingxing were overjoyed and memorized every single word.
After finishing the lesson, Kong Xuan leisurely put the book back into his bag. Seeing that the spirits of the Xingxing in front of him seemed to have undergone a complete transformation compared to before, he nodded in satisfaction.
He always has a good grasp of the timing for his lectures, and now it's about time.
Kong Xuan leaped to the treetop, his red eyes gazing down at the practical lesson that was about to unfold.
A newly cultivated Xingxing tribe versus three level 10 Chaos Beasts.
Sure enough, the moment he landed on the tree, the already precarious binding formation could no longer hold back the chaotic beast's advance and burst out.
Fortunately, the Xingxing leader also escaped its restraints. Before falling into the gaping maw, it let out a long cry, and then, with its agile body, it hooked itself upside down on a tree, escaping its fate.
But he escaped. The group of Xingxing who had gathered to listen to the lecture were immediately terrified by the ferocious beast and scattered in all directions. The Xingxing leader even saw a cub, only a few days old, slip out from between the beast's claws.
"Save...save..." The Xingxing leader found something that could save them: a small, golden peacock standing on a treetop.
Kong Xuan stared at him for a moment, her red eyes filled with cold indifference, and then took out her notebook to make corrections.
Seeing that the peacock remained unmoved, and the Xingxing fleeing below were completely disorganized, even willingly offering themselves up to the beast's jaws, the Xingxing leader knew he could wait no longer.
"Thank you... thank you..." The Xingxing leader bowed to Kong Xuan.
He had already gained spiritual insight, and thus knew that the person before him had the opportunity to guide him into the path of Tao, which was a debt of gratitude that he could not fail to repay.
But there were more important things to do at the moment. Since Kong Xuan could no longer be relied upon, they could only rely on themselves.
The Xingxing leader leaped down from the treetop, the sound of its landing and its loud roar successfully attracting everyone's attention.
Faced with the ferocious beast, he charged forward this time, calling out to his companions. The Xingxing tribe, which had been leaderless before, finally began to have some order.
The cubs were pulled up to the treetops and surrounded by others, taking advantage of Kong Xuan's slight favoritism during his lectures. Meanwhile, the strong and robust Xingxing lined up and took the initiative to surround the three ferocious beasts.
The largest Xingxing leader was taunting the three ferocious beasts, slowly luring them away from a short distance and using his familiarity with the terrain to keep them hanging behind him.
The ferocious beast, lacking sentience, wasted its energy hanging in the mountains and fields. You led the beast to a valley. Around the valley, the Xingxing, who had been lying in wait, sang nature's primal melody.
The echoes reverberated through the valley, like a stream, like a storm, until even the singing monkey forgot it was singing. As it sang, it became the song itself.
Its voice changed from that moment on. The so-called entry into the Dao means that at a certain moment, one aligns with the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and from then on, the world is renewed.
Kong Xuan gazed out, extremely satisfied with the development of the battle, and continued to record it in his notebook.
At this point, the battle was coming to an end. Exhausted and disturbed by the singing, the ferocious beasts faced their final wave of ranged attacks.
It was covered in pebbles and fruit thrown from the mountain and the water, leaving it in a sorry state. In the end, after venting its frustrations like a headless fly in the valley, it was pounced on by the Xingxing leader and a group of Xingxing.
The rough branches pierced the eyes of the ferocious beasts, and different Xingxing grabbed their limbs. The Xingxing leader straddled them and bit the throat of one of the beasts.
When the three ferocious beasts fell, all the Xingxing danced joyfully. They feasted on the beasts' flesh and blood, their fur becoming even shinier and their eyes even clearer.
The now even larger Xingxing leader took out the hearts of the three ferocious beasts and placed them as a gift in front of the tree where Kong Xuan had landed.
"Thank you." The leader knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times earnestly.
Then they stayed under the tree, hoping to see the wise man who had taught them again.
However, Kong Xuan's attention was completely drawn to something else at this moment.
[Task 1: The Beginning of Preaching is Completed]
You forged a completely different path. Instead of giving a man a fish, you taught him how to fish. Faced with the ferocious beasts of chaos, you didn't attack but chose to teach the ignorant inhabitants of chaos, enabling them to defend their homes and find their place in the primordial world.
[Congratulations! You will receive the following rewards: Title: Mentor, Chaos Shard*3, Upgrade Potion*10, Seed of Preaching (Purple)*1]
The other rewards are the usual rewards for completing the first mission of spreading the word, but the title of "Teacher" has never been mentioned.
[Teacher: Basic title, can be upgraded. A teacher is one who imparts knowledge, teaches skills, and resolves doubts. Wearing this title will increase the efficiency of imparting knowledge by 5%, and the probability of enlightenment during enlightenment will also be increased.]
It's a good thing. Kong Xuan casually put it on the status bar. Next time, he'll bring Dapeng and the cubs from Wuzhuang Temple over and see if it can improve their learning efficiency.
[No way, this works?]
[So this is how you clear the game. I couldn't beat the ferocious beasts before, but now I'll try it using Lord Kong Xuan's method.]
[Don't worry, not everyone can explain the fundamental principles of Taoism in such a simple and easy-to-understand way as Kong Xuan. I just tried, and even I couldn't understand what I was saying.]
[This is a brand new item I've never seen before, a unique title! It looks amazing, I want it!]
[This title is indeed impressive, but if there's a teacher, there must be other titles as well. I want the most powerful and unique one to show you all.]
…………
Unique methods for clearing levels, hidden mysterious titles, and an unreserved explanation of the fundamental principles of the game.
It instantly captured the entire audience of the game. Some were brought in by their mentors for extra lessons, some were attracted by the cool titles and wanted even cooler ones, and others couldn't wait to try out the brand-new gameplay.
The live stream's popularity was also boosted to its peak.
Kong Xuan looked at the gains from the live broadcast with satisfaction. He not only reviewed the basic theories of Taoist cultivation, but also mastered some teaching skills in practice.
It also gave "Three Thousand Guests of the Purple Clouds" a huge boost in advertising, and the live streaming function designed by the master also came into everyone's view. Finally, the unique title was a stroke of genius.
It's likely that future players of the game won't just follow the tutorial, but will actively explore the various gameplay elements and experience the surprises that were designed in the game's development.
This way, the master's hard work in creating the game wouldn't be wasted. A hint of joy appeared on Kong Xuan's youthful face.
According to the live broadcast schedule planned by Xiaorenshen, it is now coming to an end.
Kong Xuan left the branch he had been on and chose a scenic, open spot. He took out his notes from the game from his pocket, and the cover prominently displayed the words "Teaching Practice Manual".
Turning to the middle page, one finds densely written notes from Kong Xuan on his lesson preparation and reflections on the previous class.
"Teaching should be tailored to individual needs, and moreover, teaching and learning go hand in hand. Passing on the great principles in the game can also benefit oneself. I hope everyone can gain something from the game."
The blond-haired, red-eyed toddler tirelessly promoted the game's core principles, striving to realize the "society of knowledge sharing" that his master spoke of.
Of course, according to Little Ginseng's theory, at the very last moment before the live stream ends, it's essential to leave a lasting impression on everyone in order to maintain the buzz.
For Kong Xuan, this was not a problem at all.
As the first peacock in the world and the son of Yuan Feng, his beauty is beyond doubt.
"However, the human form still can't compare to the real body." Kong Xuan was proud of his gorgeous feathers, believing that his real body's beauty would definitely leave a deep impression on everyone.
And so, at the very last moment before the live stream ended: in a vast, clear blue sky, a golden peacock appeared on the screen. It slowly spread its tail feathers, and colorful divine light burst forth from them, so beautiful that it was impossible to open one's eyes.
Kong Xuan's beauty is undeniable; even though it only lasted a few seconds, it left a deep impression on everyone.
Most of the beings in the primordial world reminisced about the beauty of the peacock, never forgetting it.
Only Da Peng, who had been secretly watching the live stream, felt a chill run down his spine, because a sentence was clearly written in the "Teaching Practice Manual":
There is great terror between life and death, so putting students in life-or-death situations makes it easier to inspire their desire for enlightenment (√).
My life is over!

Author's Note: This is the first time I've commissioned a cover art from a teacher. [Cat emoji]
Kong Xuan + Little Ginseng, this is a victory for the toxic fans.
Da Peng: So I'm the only one who got hurt, right? [fear]
