In class.
Duan Qingxi propped up his chin in boredom and said to the Second Taoist Priest on the stage, "Second Master, don't we already know these basics? Why do we have to study them over and over again?"
The second Taoist priest was the most gentle of the four. He looked at Duan Qingxi with a smile and said, "Then Le'er, tell me, what is magic? How do you practice magic? What are the levels of practice?"
Duan Qingxi straightened his body and said seriously, as if reciting a text: "Cultivation is the main thing in the world today. Magic is the way to cultivate. The more powerful the cultivator, the higher the magic. And the different physical conditions of each person, the different ways of cultivation are. They are divided into gold, wood, water, fire and earth. Gold is the best, and they should cultivate gold-level magic. Wood is the second best, and they should cultivate wood-level magic. And so on..."
After a pause, she continued, "Evil creatures are rampant in the world, and demonic beasts are the most terrifying. Practitioners must practice diligently to protect the common people."
The second Taoist nodded, then said: "However, those are just knowledge from books, and you should also have your own great path in your heart."
Yun Ting asked, "Second Master, what is the Dao in one's heart?"
"Why do you want to practice? What is your original intention for practicing?"
Hearing this, Yun Ting began to think seriously.
In fact, he himself didn't know what his original intention was for practicing. Anyway, since he was old enough to understand, his mother and four Taoist masters began to teach him the methods of practice, and many people said that he was extremely talented.
Er Dao Zang continued, "Some people cultivate for fame and fortune, some cultivate to inherit the family's legacy, some cultivate for fun, some cultivate to avoid being bullied, and some cultivate... to protect the people of the world. Whatever the purpose of your cultivation is, you must spend your entire life pursuing it."
Then, he looked at Duan Qingxi again, "As for why I have to study these things over and over again, it's because I'm afraid that in the process of pursuing your goals, you will forget your original aspirations and be blinded by the prosperity of the world."
Duan Qingxi: ...What a great piece of chicken soup!
"Second Master, I understand."
"Well, I understand."
Duan Qingxi practiced in secret. Even though he is now a top master, no one knows about it except Yun Ting.
Therefore, the second Taoist priest did not ask much of her.
After leaving the academy, Yun Ting felt somewhat angry when he thought about how his second master was strict with him but very tolerant towards Duan Qingxi.
"How could the four Taoist masters be so unreliable? After all these years, they still can't tell that you are a cultivator!"
Duan Qingxi smiled smugly, "Anyway, we agreed that you must not tell anyone unless they find out, otherwise you'll be a puppy!"
Yun Ting snorted softly, "I, Yun Ting, always keep my word!"
However, it was precisely because Duan Qingxi was crushing him that Yun Ting never thought he was that great. Even if others praised him to the sky, he still felt like a piece of trash.
Is it amazing that he can fight against intermediate-level monsters alone at the age of thirteen? Didn’t you see that Yunle fights high-level monsters like it’s a piece of cake!
After a while, Yun Ting said again: "Tonight, please accompany me to the back mountain."
"What are you going to do in the back mountain?"
"Go find a monster to fight. Master said I'm very powerful, but I still think I'm not good enough."
Hearing this, Duan Qingxi paused, gave him a subtle look, and said, "As a boy, don't say you are incompetent."
Yunting: ...???
That night, Duan Qingxi accompanied Yun Ting and secretly went to the back mountain.
