"Fellow Daoist Ye, is this your grand ambition?" Kong Chan's voice trembled slightly as he forced himself to calm his excitement.
hehe.
Ye Tian sneered inwardly. "Scared, aren't they? These ignorant scholars. These are the four lines of Zhang Zai's 'Hengqu' from my previous life, a famous saying that left its mark on history and was highly praised."
Kong Chan was genuinely frightened. His face turned deathly pale, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Seal off this place! Seal it off immediately! Release your Confucian true energy!"
After saying this, all the great Confucian scholars, including Chen Zhang and Chen Dexing, released their inner righteous energy.
Ye Tian now felt that this entire world, including the two pillars of light, had been completely enveloped. Even if all the great scholars of the academy were together, they probably wouldn't be able to break in, even if they were at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
this……
Ye Tian suddenly realized that he himself had not been aware of the seriousness of the problem. He had also underestimated Kong Chan's emphasis on this grand vision.
Kong Chan bowed with his hands clasped and said earnestly, "Fellow Daoist Ye, could you perhaps record your grand aspirations on the first floor of our Confucian Haoran Pagoda to express your determination?"
It's just engraved on the first floor of the Confucian Haoran Pagoda, like pasting up couplets. I don't know why these people are making it so formal.
Ye Tian suddenly couldn't quite understand this strange Confucian culture, but since they wanted to carve it on the first floor as a couplet, he figured he might as well let them do it. After all, he was just a plagiarist anyway.
"Okay, but I have a request." Ye Tian certainly wouldn't do a losing business.
"Oh?" Kong Chan breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they could talk, that was fine. As long as it wasn't something as outrageous as reaching for the moon in the heavens, their academy was willing to try and satisfy Ye Tian.
Their attitude was quite good.
Ye Tian chuckled and said, "My request is very simple: I hope that all the great scholars present can become cultural guests of our Ruthless Sect."
He's a scholar, after all.
To become a guest retainer, one certainly can't be like Su Li and Chu Feng; that would seem too low-class. A cultured guest retainer is much more refined.
"So simple?" Kong Chan was stunned. He had thought Ye Tian would make some demanding requests. But it was only this simple.
"I wonder what we are required to do as guest elders of the Ruthless Sect?" Kong Chan asked cautiously.
Ye Tian chuckled inwardly. The poor scholars of the academy had no idea that they were about to become his employees, spending the rest of their lives accumulating Confucian integrity for others.
"Simple. There are too many illiterate people in our sect. We can help them learn more about culture and knowledge, and when we have free time, we can come and supervise their studies and cultivation."
The main point is to work for him; as for the rest of the reasons, Ye Tian can only make one up, as long as it sounds plausible on the surface.
so.
Ye Tian, all by himself, reached an agreement with the entire Hanlin Academy.
at the same time.
The system's automated prompt suddenly rang out.
[Ding! Kong Chan, Dean of Hanlin Academy, has become a cultural guest of the Ruthless Sect. The host has obtained 2x2 of the Twelvefold Righteous Qi of the Great Aspiration Scholar of the World!]
[Ding! Academician Chen Zhang of the Hanlin Academy has become a cultural guest elder of the Ruthless Sect. The host has obtained two copies of the Ninefold Righteous Qi of the Confucian Scholar of the Great Aspiration Realm!]
[Ding! Academician Chen Dexing of the Hanlin Academy has become a cultural guest of the Ruthless Sect. The host has obtained 2x the Ninefold Righteous Qi of the Confucian Scholar of the Great Aspiration of the World]
The mechanical announcements in his mind rang like morning drums and evening bells in Ye Tian's heart. Just as he expected, these Confucian scholars had become his employees and would still give him feedback.
The only pity is...
The righteous spirit of the Confucian academy will not increase Ye Tian's spiritual energy level.
Otherwise, with so many powerful laborers, Ye Tian's cultivation level could have advanced by leaps and bounds in an instant.
The academy's dean, Kong Chan, is no weakling. In terms of cultivation level, he's equivalent to the peak of the twelfth level of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
Perhaps due to the special nature of Confucian scholars who cultivate themselves, they might be even more powerful.
As for Chen Zhang and Chen Dexing, they don't seem to be much worse.
His cultivation level was also at the ninth level of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
They're all experts! Ye Tian has gained a lot from his trip to Hanlin Academy, acquiring a bunch of highly skilled workers all at once.
The remaining great Confucian scholars in the academy, even those with the lowest cultivation levels who were integrated into his system, all reached the level of Great Luo Golden Immortal.
[Ding! Host has gained 2x Righteous Qi! Realm breakthrough to the third level of Confucian Scholar Realm.]
Before the borders of the nation, Confucianism was part of the system of immortals and the universe, specifically the realms of Heaven and Earth. These ranks, from highest to lowest, were: Zhuangyuan (状元), Juren (举人), Xiucai (秀才), and Rusheng (儒生).
Because Ye Tian possesses a Confucian scholar at the Heavenly Realm level, his breakthrough speed is astonishingly fast. He's currently at the Confucian scholar level, but it probably won't be long before he directly breaks through to the Heavenly Realm.
The righteous energy of Confucianism, when applied to Ye Tian's body, created a completely different feeling. If spiritual energy is dispersed throughout the limbs and bones, forging the physical body while simultaneously refining the primordial spirit...
The Confucian concept of "righteous spirit" simply elevates the primordial spirit. The strength of the primordial spirit is astonishing; it even allows one to abandon the physical body.
Ye Tian had a premonition that if he cultivated the Confucian system to its highest level, even if his physical body was eventually annihilated, as long as he could find a suitable new body, his strength would not be diminished in the slightest.
This system is quite terrifying.
If one can cultivate both Confucianism and the immortal system.
Ye Tian's primordial spirit and physical body will become terrifyingly powerful. At that time, he might not be able to fight against more powerful opponents.
hiss.
This seems to be a brighter future, and it seems that the cultivation of these "tools" of the academy should also be put on the agenda.
Hmm.
The aura formed by the righteous spirit of Confucianism seemed to be pressed against a person with a bruised and swollen face.
Ye Tian took a closer look and realized it was Junior Brother Su.
Then it suddenly dawned on him that Junior Brother Su had been standing alone next to him and the Confucian masters, and when the spiritual energy shield formed, it directly bounced Junior Brother Su away, no wonder he was bruised and swollen...
Ye Tian fell silent for a moment; this was truly outrageous.
"Senior brother..." Su Muchen cried as he recounted his story. He said that he had just stood there, and before he could even react, he was thrown away by something.
Ye Tian quickly offered some words of comfort.
"Alright, it's time to go back to the sect." Ye Tian patted Su Muchen on the shoulder and told him that one must be strong and not shed tears easily.
“Senior brother. The important thing is that I’ve come to tell you something. Someone just came to the academy looking for our junior sister, Gu Nishang. It seemed like an old acquaintance. But when she left, she looked very upset. They even had a fight, and when Master went to confront them, he was injured by the person.” Su Muchen said.
Ye Tian frowned and asked in a cold voice, "Where?"
He treated everyone in the Ruthless Sect as family. Even though he made his family work for him every day, it didn't mean that others could bully them.
"They haven't flown far yet, hurry and go after them to check on them. I'm worried something might have happened to my junior sister," Su Muchen said anxiously.
