"Today, we'll be studying our required core subject, Seris.
Open Romance of Seris to 'Records of the Grand Historian: Biography of Lord Shang,' starting from this passage: after ten years of implementing these policies, the people of Qin were greatly pleased, and every household had enough to live on. The people fought bravely in public wars but feared private feuds, and the villages and towns were well governed.
Try translating the entire passage into vernacular Chinese, then into Elvish script, and answer the reading comprehension questions using the context..."
A few days later, in the teaching area of the Mage Tower.
The tower's lecturer was assigning classwork to the apprentice mages.
As language-learning material, Romance of Seris was Roland's own work-a transplant-and contained a wealth of historical and cultural depth. It was extremely valuable and therefore widely circulated.
The more everyone studied it, the more they felt that Roland truly was an unparalleled genius, born with knowledge.
These materials contained his philosophy of governance and profound wisdom!
Quite a few people could not help having a sudden realization. "Isn't this exactly the reform East Lainer is carrying out?"
They could view Jonis and the others as people from Yan, Zhao, and Qi...
They could view ranged spells, Detonation Talismans, and the like as the Qin army's powerful bows and crossbows, and printing as standardized production...
They could view learning the Seris language and writing system, and immersing themselves in Seris culture, as the unification of weights and measures...
The educational loop was complete, and everything suddenly became clear!
These new students had enrolled the previous year. As apprentice mages, their reading comprehension was already close to level four.
But only now had they truly begun to connect everything they had learned.
Their thinking was gradually becoming Qin-like...
"Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"
