Someone Must Step Forward

"I admit there's an element of luck, but I'm the one who improved the Cultivation Gymnastics," Feng Qi said, looking at Wang Jinsheng with a serious expression.

Hearing this, Wang Jinsheng fell into thought.

Wang Jinsheng had a detailed understanding of Feng Qi's family background. He knew that his parents were members of a Domain Battle Group but went missing during an operation to disperse a domain field. Because of this, Feng Qi had always been alone, boarding at the school.

The school had a closed management system, so it was impossible for Feng Qi to have contact with people outside the school.

As for within the school, he really didn't think anyone had the ability to improve the Cultivation Gymnastics, which had been modified multiple times by predecessors.

Feng Qi said that he improved the Cultivation Gymnastics through his own random attempts. It seemed that besides this explanation, there was no better answer.

Thinking about Feng Qi not feeling well in the morning, Wang Jinsheng had a guess:

"You weren't feeling well this morning, was it related to randomly modifying the Cultivation Gymnastics?"

"Not sure, not ruled out, not certain."

Before figuring out the secret of the mysterious dream, Feng Qi didn't plan to expose it, so he chose to answer against his will.

"Don't ever try random things like that again! The path of cultivation techniques is related to the acupoints in the body, and there are many Fatal Acupoints in the human body. If you're not careful, you could become completely paralyzed and a total cripple. Wait until you learn more about improving techniques in the future before trying!" Wang Jinsheng patted Feng Qi's shoulder with concern, then his expression turned serious:

"Feng Qi, I have a request now, and I hope to get your consent!"

"Go ahead, I might not agree." Although he said this, he had already guessed what History Teacher Wang wanted to tell him.

"I want to send the improved Cultivation Gymnastics to the Tiger Soul Research Institute and have them test your improved version. If the test results are feasible, it will be promoted worldwide, and you will also receive rewards, which will be very helpful for your future."

"No problem!" Feng Qi agreed without hesitation.

At Feng Qi's answer, a smile appeared on Wang Jinsheng's face:

"You little brat, you're truly a student I taught. You didn't disappoint me."

"Of course, you often tell us that personal selfishness is nothing compared to the future of humanity. I came to you this time precisely to promote my improved Cultivation Gymnastics."

"A teachable child!"

"No, it's the teacher's excellent guidance!"

After flattering each other, Feng Qi suddenly spoke:

"By the way, Old Wang, do you want me to demonstrate it a few more times for you?"

"Okay, I'll take another look and see what else is different."

Stepping back two steps and standing still, Feng Qi once again performed the Cultivation Gymnastics, pausing at key points from time to time to allow Wang Jinsheng to see more clearly.

He had already watched the teaching videos in the database several times, constantly explaining the key points of the movements to deepen Wang Jinsheng's understanding of the future version of the Cultivation Gymnastics.

After watching Feng Qi's demonstration, Wang Jinsheng quickly grasped the essentials and followed Feng Qi's movements, already looking quite good.

By the time Feng Qi performed the third time, Wang Jinsheng was completely proficient and had mastered the breathing rhythm during cultivation.

After stopping his movements, Feng Qi looked at Wang Jinsheng, who was still deep in thought, and asked:

"Old Wang, have you ever thought about not being a teacher anymore?"

Hearing this, Wang Jinsheng, who was thinking, looked puzzled, then shook his head:

"I thought about it, but I gave up!"

"Why? All the teachers and students in the school know that with your graduation results, you could have gone to a better place. Staying here is a complete waste of your talent. Some people even say you chose to be a teacher here to live a comfortable life because you're afraid of fighting Domain Creatures, that you're a coward."

He knew whether Wang Jinsheng was a coward or not, but he wanted to know why Wang Jinsheng gave up the opportunity to work at the Tiger Soul Research Institute after graduating from the academy and chose to teach here.

Hearing this, Wang Jinsheng couldn't help but laugh and scold:

"Why are you asking so many questions? Go back and review. If you're not feeling well, go to bed early."

"Can you tell me?" Feng Qi continued to press.

Hearing this, Wang Jinsheng pondered for a moment, then picked up the wine bottle on the ground and took a gulp:

"It doesn't hurt to tell you."

"Actually, my initial plan for my future wasn't to be a teacher. After graduation, I planned to either join a Domain Battle Group or enter the Technique Research Institute to modify the drawbacks of existing techniques, improve techniques, or research new cultivation techniques. But an accident changed my mind."

Looking at Feng Qi's curious face, Wang Jinsheng took another gulp of wine and continued:

"Before graduation, there was a domain practical training. After entering the domain field, my companions and I were attacked by Domain Creatures. During that time, we fought hard and finally carved out a path to survival, but three companions died."

"Does this have something to do with you not wanting to work at the Tiger Soul Research Institute?" Feng Qi looked puzzled.

"During that practical test, I saw the cowardice and fear suppressed deep within several of my companions. Facing the Domain Creatures, they had the strength but not the courage to resist, and they even almost dragged down other team members. From that moment on, I understood one thing: a Feeble body can be saved, but a cowardly spirit is incurable."

"After the mission ended, I thought a lot and finally made a decision: to give up the opportunity to work at the Tiger Soul Research Institute and become a history teacher to fundamentally solve this problem."

Hearing these words, Feng Qi already understood what Wang Jinsheng was thinking.

Many people secretly said that History Teacher Wang gave up because he was cowardly, but he felt that Old Wang gave up a rare opportunity for the future of humanity.

During his classes, Wang Jinsheng was extremely serious and always firmly told them that humanity would definitely win in the future.

He also often told them about the history of humanity's struggle against Domain Creatures, introducing the great individuals who made significant contributions to humanity and those who sacrificed heroically, hoping they would take them as role models.

He would also often publish articles on the forums of various academies to encourage those with cowardly spirits, hoping they would understand that only by striving for self-improvement and resisting to the end could humanity have a future.

The seemingly carefree and casual Wang Jinsheng actually put a lot of pressure on himself. He yearned to awaken all of humanity spiritually and yearned more than anyone for humanity to usher in the final victory.

Looking at the bleary-eyed Wang Jinsheng, Feng Qi was silent for a long time before speaking:

"As a teacher, your influence is ultimately limited. You can only change a part of the people, but you can't change everyone. I think you shouldn't stay here. You should go to the Tiger Soul Research Institute and try your best. Maybe you can develop a cultivation technique suitable for all of humanity. As long as you succeed, it will benefit all of humanity."

Having checked the future database, he knew that Wang Jinsheng would eventually give up teaching and return to the Tiger Soul Research Institute, thus starting a brilliant life. He developed a series of cultivation techniques more suitable for human cultivation, making indelible historical contributions to the rise of humanity, and was even rated as a great historical figure.

At this moment, he wanted to change history, trying to make Wang Jinsheng realize earlier and return to the path he should take, instead of wasting his talent by staying here.

"The path of developing cultivation techniques is not as simple as you think. Perhaps I won't be able to develop a cultivation technique even if I work hard my whole life. I'm not as amazing as you think." Wang Jinsheng shook his head and sighed, then took a bottle of wine from a cardboard box nearby, bit off the cap with his teeth, and took a big gulp.

"Someone has to step forward. How do you know you can't do it if you don't try? If you truly hope that humanity can achieve the final victory, you should take the most difficult path. Just like I improved the Cultivation Gymnastics, if humanity had more such cultivation techniques, would we still fear Domain Creatures?"

Feng Qi's words stunned Wang Jinsheng.

As Feng Qi said, he was just one person after all, and his influence was extremely limited if he wanted to awaken the feeble through teaching.

But if he could develop a very complete cultivation technique, the situation would be completely different. The technique would definitely be promoted and influence all of humanity.

If there were more complete techniques that allowed humans to gain stronger power than Domain Creatures through cultivation, they would no longer need to fear the invasion of the Domains.

"Old Wang, I'm leaving now. Let's chat when I have time." After saying that, Feng Qi turned and left.

Feng Qi didn't know if he could change the future, but he wanted to try.

Someone has to step forward. These words were not only for Wang Jinsheng but also for himself.

He didn't know what the future held, but at least he had tried, and that was enough to have no regrets.

Looking at Feng Qi's retreating back, Wang Jinsheng's mind was in chaos.

After listening to Feng Qi's words, he found that a surge of impulse had risen in his heart, as if a seed was taking root and sprouting deep within him, growing uncontrollably.

The path of developing cultivation techniques was full of difficulties, but someone had to step forward. Why couldn't that person be me?

"This brat, he actually made me waver." Muttering to himself, a hint of fighting spirit ignited in Wang Jinsheng's eyes.

The butterfly's wings quietly flapped at this moment, causing the direction of reality to change.

Unbeknownst to him, the dark clouds in the sky had dispersed.

Wang Jinsheng looked up, the bright moon hung high in the sky, and the stars were brilliant.
