I, Ma Liang, Am Positive, Upbeat, and Have a Great Mindset!
Regarding Ma Liang's initiative to volunteer to go to the Spirit Beast Continent.
Chu Xinghe remained completely calm...
If you were to say that Ma Liang knew even a little bit about Mine Seeking Art, I would never have let Ma Liang go. After all, you never know what kind of bizarre things that bastard Ma Liang might get into.
But while others may not know Ma Liang's situation, don't you know it yourself?
Ma Liang also Mine Seeking Art... How could he possibly find anything?
There was an even more important reason for sending Ma Liang there: Yuzheng and Tieniu, these two lucky generals, were good in every way... except for the speed at which they were losing money!
Look at those two, acting all stingy like they're buying spirit ore. How many days have they been gone already?
It took you two so many days to achieve an eight-kill streak?
Do you know the saying, "Time is money, but money can't buy time"?
Were you guys buying spirit ore? You were just wasting your time!
I've sent them two messages in the past two days, urging them to speed things up... to not worry about losses at all... to just keep going and buy everything...
But guess what? The two of them dawdled ahead, completely hesitant to make a move. They looked at the various spirit ores again and again, showing absolutely no intention of taking any action...
Chu Xinghe was helpless about this... but after thinking about it carefully, there was nothing he could do...
This is a matter of mindset. Tieniu came from humble beginnings, Tieniu cares more about everything he has worked so hard for than anyone else. That's why Tieniu sometimes seems hesitant and timid when doing things, mainly because his mindset hasn't fully changed yet.
Feng Yuzheng's background was alright... but that was all; after all, the Feng Lineage had already fallen into decline by then.
Although he is now a core disciple of the Vast Heaven Sect, Feng Yuzheng knows that he is only where he is today because of Senior Brother Xinghe, so he always thinks twice before acting.
These two are good in every way, except they're not bold enough in their actions! They're petty and narrow-minded... lacking that grand and unrestrained spirit!
Chu Xinghe wondered if this was the time to be petty.
Do you think it's easy for Lao Tzu to find an opportunity to suffer a huge loss?
This is where we should emphasize a bold and unrestrained style!
Young people should be more open-minded!
If you're talking about being able to let go, then Ma Liang definitely is!
In terms of mindset, Ma Liang has always held himself to the standards of Future Grand Elder.
Ma Liang was known for his unrestrained and bold approach to things...
Therefore, sending Ma Liang to the Spirit Beast Continent was absolutely the right thing to do. With Ma Liang's help, they'd be guaranteed a huge loss!
"Ma Liang... after you go, tell Yuzheng and Tieniu that when it's time to act, they should act... what does it matter if they fail once, twice, three times, four times, seven or eight times? Where does success come from without failure?"
How can you see a rainbow without experiencing wind and rain?
"How many days has it been? You can't even handle eight failures? You're already losing so little and you're already losing your composure? How will you ever be able to build a world on your own in the Future?"
"So don't hold back, just buy it... If anything goes wrong, Senior Brother Xinghe will cover for you!"
In response to Senior Brother Xinghe's words, Ma Liang said that Senior Brother Xinghe was right. Ma Liang assured Senior Brother Xinghe that he was a free spirit, and that it was ridiculous that these three little guys were so restrained.
Ma Liang said, "Senior Brother Xinghe, you can rest assured... Yuzheng and Tieniu have the wrong mentality, but don't you understand my mentality, Senior Brother Xinghe Ma Liang?"
I, Ma Liang, am known for my positive and optimistic attitude. With me Ma Liang, here, there's absolutely no problem maintaining a stable mindset!
Chu Xinghe personally set up a teleportation array for Ma Liang to travel to the Spirit Beast Continent.
Ma Liang also arrived at the Spirit Beast Continent immediately.
Upon seeing their Senior Brother Ma Liang arrive, Feng Yuzheng and Wang Tieniu turned pale, their heads practically drooping into their crotches.
Feng Yuzheng felt like a child who had done something wrong. He realized that he had really made a mistake... He had let down Senior Brother Xinghe's expectations. Now that Senior Brother Ma Liang was coming, he would definitely curse him for bringing shame to the sect and Senior Brother Xinghe!
Wang Tieniu's thoughts were similar to Feng Yuzheng's, and he also kept his head down and remained silent.
When faced with Wang Tieniu and Feng Yuzheng, Ma Liang did indeed choose to hurl insults!
"Feng Yuzheng, oh Feng Yuzheng! You've disappointed me so much... and you've disappointed Senior Brother Xinghe even more!"
Feng Yuzheng almost couldn't hold back her tears when she heard this!
"Feng Yuzheng... how many days have you been here? You've only made eight moves? Do you know that Senior Brother Xinghe scolded me at home because of this! Buying eight spirit mines in so many days? Anyone who knows would think it was your idea, but anyone who doesn't would think our Vast Heaven Sect is begging for food!"
Feng Yuzheng: "?"
Wang Tieniu: "?"
"Senior Brother Xinghe instructed us this time... We need to be bold and unrestrained in our actions, we need to be bold... Do you understand? You can't even handle this little setback?... Come on... Today we'll select eight more spirit mines! Today, Senior Brother Ma Liang will show you what true mindset is!"
Led by Ma Liang, Feng Yuzheng used his Treasure Seeking Art to select eight spirit mines on the spot...
The mining disciples of the Vast Heaven Sect also began excavating spirit ore immediately...
Ma Liang stood beside the spirit mine and spoke calmly, "Junior Brother Yuzheng... Junior Brother Tieniu... As disciples of the Vast Heaven Sect, as talents personally discovered by Senior Brother Xinghe, your failures are not terrible; what's truly terrible is that your mentality collapses after your failures!"
"So what if it's eight spirit mines? So what if it cost a huge amount of resources and resulted in a loss? What's that? Tell me, what's that? Today, Senior Brother Ma Liang will show you what true mentality is... No matter how heavy the blow, it can only defeat my Ma Liang, but it will never make me admit Ma Liang! That's what mentality is!"
As Ma Liang recounted the story, the first spirit mine was discovered... a junk mine... still a fault-line junk mine!
Ma Liang: "What are you panicking for! Stay calm... don't you understand what calmness is?!"
Soon... the second spirit mine was also mined... another junk mine... and it was a fault line...
Ten kills in a row... A new record has been set...
Ma Liang: "Everyone, stay calm! It's just two bad mines, right? Does our Vast Heaven Sect lack such resources? Keep your composure..."
Then the third... and the fourth spirit mine were also mined... the record was broken once again... twelve consecutive fault-line junk mines...
Ma Liang gritted his teeth. "Stay calm! Keep calm! We can lose the spirit mine, but we can't let our mentality collapse!"
Soon all the remaining spirit ore was mined... Sixteen junk mines created the ultimate record of sixteen consecutive kills...
Ma Liang watched as all eight spirit mines collapsed... At this moment, Ma Liang didn't know if the spirit mines were still collapsing... but right now, Ma Liang was truly devastated!
This guy's mentality is just so incredibly unstable...
Yuzheng... are you kidding me?
Ma Liang said this has nothing to do with Treasure Seeking Art or Mine Seeking Art...
Even with your eyes closed, you couldn't find this many junk mines, could you?
Are you trying to use the process of elimination with me? Are you trying to help other factions eliminate junk mines?
I, Ma Liang, have a great positive attitude... but the problem is, Yuzheng, the spirit ore you've created isn't positive at all... it's purely negative!
Ma Liang took several deep breaths but still couldn't calm himself down!
Whether others were mentally broken or not, Ma Liang didn't know, but Ma Liang was absolutely, completely mentally broken...
What the hell? You're saying I, Ma Liang, have a bad attitude?
I, Ma Liang, didn't kill Yuzheng and Tieniu on the spot, so why are you saying I have a bad mentality?
Seeing Feng Yuzheng and Wang Tieniu both wanting to use their Earth Escape Technique that allows one to escape underground), Ma Liang tried his best to calm himself down... and tried to appear more composed.
Ma Liang said that it's no longer a matter of being bold and unrestrained... Now we need to consider exactly where the hell went wrong!
The problem is, if you were to say that Yuzheng's arrival was my idea, Ma Liang, then after losing so much money, it wouldn't be wrong for Ma Liang to go back to Senior Brother Xinghe and apologize.
After all, it's normal for me, Ma Liang, to make mistakes, right?
The problem is that Senior Brother Xinghe also gave his opinion before Yuzheng arrived... and Senior Brother Xinghe agreed.
You can say I, Ma Liang, made a mistake, but if you say Senior Brother Xinghe has a problem, then I think you have a problem!
If it's not Senior Brother Xinghe's fault, then whose fault is it?
After thinking it over, Ma Liang pulled Feng Yuzheng and Wang Tieniu, who were already curled up like shrimp, to sit down.
"Yuzheng... let's try a different approach... since you've been so careful in your selection process and it only yields low-quality ore, let's think about it from the opposite perspective... what if you selected from the opposite direction...?"
It has to be said that Ma Liang's words immediately made Feng Yuzheng and Wang Tieniu, who were practically burying their heads in their pants, raise their heads!
Looking at Senior Brother Ma Liang before them, Feng Yuzheng and Wang Tieniu finally understood why Senior Brother Ma Liang was the only permanent outer disciple... and why Senior Brother Ma Liang was Senior Brother Xinghe's most trusted confidant!
This idea from Senior Brother Ma Liang is really a bit too radical!
Because what Senior Brother Ma Liang said makes perfect sense... Since choosing the right option every time is wrong... then wouldn't choosing the opposite way be the right way?
"Senior Brother Ma Liang's insight is brilliant!"
"Senior Brother Ma Liang's words have solved the problem perfectly!"
"Senior Brother Ma Liang is right! Maybe if we choose the other way around!"
After confirming that what Senior Brother Ma Liang said was true, everyone rushed to the spirit mine trading market. Following Senior Brother Ma Liang's instructions, Feng Yuzheng immediately bought four spirit mines!
To verify Senior Brother Ma Liang's conjecture, everyone worked without delay and began mining the four spirit mines that very night.
The four spirit mines were quickly opened... and the result completely shocked everyone present!
It's still a junk mine... and it's still a fault line!
Feng Yuzheng: "..."
Wang Tieniu: "..."
Ma Liang: "???"
At this moment, Ma Liang was completely dumbfounded. Was this some kind of ghost? Buying forward had a problem... and buying in reverse would yield the same result?
At this point, Ma Liang's mentality wasn't just about whether he was about to break down... Ma Liang's mentality had completely exploded!
