Xie Feng, with one hand behind his back, calmly asked, "Now, do you understand?"
Tang Ran pursed his lips, then raised his stubborn eyes, "Dean, is your so-called ' Literary Dao ' just for bullying others?!"
"Come forward."
Xie Feng said calmly.
Lü Yan and Master Han Yu frowned almost imperceptibly.
They were somewhat worried about the child!
Being too sharp and assertive is not a good thing!
The other students watched in silence, not daring to breathe.
Tang Ran pursed his lips and approached Xie Feng. He expected to be met with harsh criticism, but to his surprise, Xie Feng taught him the secret of "ruling" from the Golden Mouth and Jade Words!
A moment later.
Xie Feng asked, "Have you learned it?"
Tang Ran nodded.
Xie Feng raised his palm again and attacked him!
The force he exerted was like a boxing champion hitting someone with his little finger compared to his actual strength, but for Tang Ran, who had only been learning for a few days, it was like a violent storm.
As the palm strike landed, Tang Ran's expression changed slightly, and he instinctively used his Golden Mouth and Jade Words.
"Royal!"
As the childish voice faded, a transparent barrier appeared before him.
Xie Feng's palm strike shattered the barrier, only to vanish into nothingness along with it.
The blast of air hit him, Tang Ran jerked back, managing to stay upright this time!
Xie Feng asked, "Do you understand now?"
Tang Ran clenched her fists and remained silent.
Xie Feng smiled lightly, "If you still don't understand, then let me tell you, whether it's the Literary Dao or the Martial Dao, learning them is not for bullying the weak. Their most basic purpose is to protect yourself! For your own better survival!"
"Ability is your spear, kindness is your shield. Only by wielding both a powerful spear and a strong shield can you protect yourself! And even protect others while protecting yourself! Strength has never been the sole symbol of violence; strength is also synonymous with protection!"
"Do you understand now?"
Tang Ran lowered his head. "I understand!"
Xie Feng nodded and smiled. This child is a promising talent. He is not afraid of authority, dares to question, and dares to think. Although he has some sharp edges, a young man must have sharp edges and vigor to be called a young man!
"Dean!" A short-haired girl raised her hand and asked calmly, "You said you want to protect others. I'd like to ask, what kind of people need protection?"
Xie Feng looked at her. He was quite familiar with this girl; she came from Aurora City of the Star Clan and her Jialan.
Xie Feng said slowly, "In terms of the country, it's the people; in terms of family, it's relatives."
Jialan silently repeated it, then nodded thoughtfully.
Are there any other questions?
The students all shook their heads.
" Lü Yan, take them into the Literary Dao Tower to cultivate!"
Xie Feng waved his hand, Lü Yan nodded slightly, thus organizing the students to enter the Literary Dao Tower.
"My junior brother from back then is now capable of handling things on his own and has the demeanor of a grandmaster."
Kong Qiusu's voice came out.
Xie Feng gave a wry smile, "Senior brother, please don't tease me."
I'm telling the truth.
"You've established your own academy, using literature to convey principles and spread ideas, and you have so many supporters. You've done far better than I did back then!"
Is there anything in this world that my senior brother hasn't done well enough?
"Sigh," Kong Qiusu sighed, "I've lost in terms of popularity. You're the most popular among all of us fellow disciples! To be honest, I'm quite envious!"
Xie Feng said, "Being popular isn't necessarily a good thing; being unpopular isn't necessarily a bad thing. What suits you is what's good."
"Too."
"By the way, senior brother, your attainments in Literary Dao are unparalleled. Why don't we have a friendly exchange? You can give me some pointers!"
Kong Qiusu said, "Okay!"
Xie Feng then waved his sleeve cannon, conjuring up a vast domain.
Kong Qiusu also emerged from the former's Dantian, flashing white light, appearing like a mirage.
The two exchanged a glance, and without saying a word, they started fighting!
Xie Feng raised his palm, his mind racing, and in an instant, countless Literary Qi surged forth like a raging torrent, overwhelming everything!
The Literary Qi into a long dragon!
The dragon's tail swung, stirring up towering waves; its body roared, pointing directly at Kong Qiusu!
This strike is enough to kill Literary Venerable Realm!
Because he was facing an unparalleled Military Confucian, Xie Feng held nothing back!
Kong Qiusu stood calmly, making no move, only staring with his phoenix eyes at the roaring dragon of Literary Qi that was less than ten feet away from him...
"Break."
Kong Qiusu calmly.
Bang!
The Literary Qi surge exploded!
A fierce wind whipped Kong Qiusu's long, ink-black hair. His eyes were deep and unfathomable, like a distant mountain, an abyss, inspiring awe and making him seem unapproachable...
Behind all of this lies over 340 years of experience and strength!
"So strong!"
Xie Feng sighed inwardly.
As expected, you can tell how skilled my senior brother is just by his first move!
He still has a lot to learn from his senior brother!
Despite the initial defeat, Xie Feng's mood remained unaffected; he continued to use his Words Become Law " technique.
"Tyrannical waves!"
As soon as the words were spoken, all the energy in the space surged forth, forming waves that attacked once more.
Kong Qiusu raised his palm and slowly pressed it down.
"Flat."
It was just another casual remark.
The raging waves were immediately calmed!
"Broken!"
Kong Qiusu suddenly launched a counterattack, pointing at Xie Feng, and a thin beam of white light shot out!
Xie Feng then Words Become Law again, seemingly out of nowhere. "Invulnerable to swords and spears!"
The Power of the Literary Dao surged upwards, condensing into a layer of solid crystalline armor on its surface.
A white light burst forth from afar, carrying boundless and terrifying energy; the impact was so powerful that even space itself began to collapse!
Click!
Before the white light even got close, its oppressive force had already cracked Xie Feng's impenetrable armor!
A white light flashed, and the armor shattered into pieces!
Xie Feng reacted quickly and retreated, thus avoiding being injured by the white light.
His repeated failures fueled his competitive spirit.
He raised his eyes, his gaze intense, and said, "Senior brother, I'm about to reveal my trump card!"
Kong Qiusu suddenly laughed and asked, "Are you only using the power of Literary Dao to fight me? I don't mind if you use other laws of the Dao at the same time!"
Xie Feng shook his head. "I don't want to lose so badly that I'm utterly ashamed."
Kong Qiusu was taken aback; he truly hadn't expected his junior brother to be so honest...
Xie Feng unleashed a terrifying aura, took a step forward, and moved with the speed of a phantom, appearing in front of Kong Qiusu in the next second!
" His Vast as Wrath!"
With a soft shout, Vast Righteous Qi descended, sweeping forth boundless splendor!
In that instant!
Because of his Vast Righteous Qi, his energy was comparable to that of the Literary Sage Realm!
The domain began to shake violently, the heavens and earth collapsed, and endless Dao principles surged forth like Mount Tai pressing down!
Kong Qiusu remained calm. He took a step forward with composure, and then, amidst the overwhelming energy of the storm, he walked calmly, untouched by the wind and rain!
"Junior brother, next, I will teach you a Cultivation Method. Once you learn it, your attainments in the Literary Dao will be even higher."
As Kong Qiusu spoke, he appeared in front of Xie Feng, extending his right index finger and gently touching the latter's brow.
