A beautiful appearance is a dime a dozen, but an interesting soul is one in a million.
Knowledge and character are the greatest manifestations of the soul. You can figure out your own character, but I will guide you in terms of knowledge and talent.
Playing the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting are just the most basic skills. You can develop in the direction that best suits you based on your own preferences and the needs of your environment.
However, in this era, the strong are respected, and cultivators are the true high-ranking members. Your development path must be combined with your own cultivation techniques...
Therefore, selling your art but not your body is the true path to success!
Another day, Wang Hao once again gave a public lecture to the many young ladies of the Listening to Rain Pavilion. Imparting practical skills was secondary; the real purpose was to teach these young ladies brand-new ideas, commonly known as creative thinking!
The development of the Tomb of the Gods World is quite abnormal, with everything revolving around self-cultivation, and auxiliary service industries have hardly developed at all.
Even if the sect behind Nangong Xian'er can only engage in low-level prostitution in secret, this is mainly because these people don't have any imagination.
However, these people are not stupid. As long as they have a brand-new idea, they can independently develop a dazzling array of service industries based on it.
"You created this?"
At this moment, Nangong Xian'er, who was also listening to the lecture, saw Wang Hao finish his lecture and look at the dual cultivation manual in his hand. She was once again deeply shocked by this man.
This dual cultivation technique was the Wang Hao had previously passed on to those young ladies. After all, this main profession couldn't be neglected; at most, it was just a matter of finding a more elegant way to do it.
Out of curiosity, Nangong Xian'er asked for a copy of the manual to study, and what she saw there left her deeply shocked.
This dual cultivation technique is very similar to a sixth-grade dual cultivation technique that she once taught Wang Hao, but it is far, far more perfect.
Moreover, it incorporates the essence of many other unique skills, and even the mysteries of their core inheritance of the Desire Dao, making it a celestial-grade unique skill, no less than their core inheritance of the Desire Dao.
Although I already knew that this guy's comprehension was extraordinary, far surpassing the legendary geniuses, this is still just too amazing!
"If I didn't create it, did you create it?"
Rolling his eyes, Wang Hao quickly changed the subject.
"How's the construction at the Listening to Rain Mountain Manor going? Hopefully it won't open before the competition ends!"
Wang Hao's original idea was to renovate the original site of the Listening to Rain Pavilion, but Nangong Xian'er was wealthy and powerful. After learning about his reform plan, she directly bought several barren mountains ten miles outside the capital of Huaxia Nation, intending to build a Listening to Rain Mountain Manor there.
Wang Hao was very satisfied with this. The larger the investment, the more powerful the girl's backing would send more and stronger people to oversee things. With a strong backer, these poor young ladies would be able to have more freedom in the future.
He was powerless to change the state of the world for the time being, but since he had encountered these unfortunate young ladies, he naturally had to lend a hand.
Don't worry, I'll definitely make it to the opening ceremony!
She rolled her Byakugan back at him, never expecting that this wicked Nangong Xian'er would have such a kind heart.
After observing for the past few days, she was certain that the other party was not feigning kindness to gain fame, but genuinely wanted to help these girls find a bright future.
Ever since she proposed investing in the construction of the Listening to Rain Mountain Manor, this bastard has asked about the project's progress every day, and after a while, she naturally got annoyed.
"Your Formless Divine Art seems incomplete. Is there some intricacies involved?"
Nangong Xian'er glanced at the manual in her hand again, quite curious about it.
This cultivation technique is indeed of a very high grade, but unfortunately it is not perfect and has many shortcomings.
She didn't believe this guy lacked the ability to perfect it completely; it was clearly done on purpose.
Why should I perfect the creation of this cultivation technique?
Wang Hao smiled and asked in return.
He, who loved to teach, had already regarded Nangong Xian'er as his disciple. When it came to teaching disciples, he never liked to directly fix their development path, as that would limit their potential and creativity.
Therefore, he deliberately left the Formless Divine Art Skill with flaws, waiting for those young ladies to use their own talents and knowledge to perfect it and forge their own paths.
You mean...?
Nangong Xian'er seemed to understand something, and roughly grasped Wang Hao's intentions. She then compared it with the educational model of her own sect and immediately felt quite frustrated.
She understood the advantages of Wang Hao's educational model. Although it was certainly not as good as those cultivators who had perfected their cultivation and inherited their skills in the early stages, it was superior in that it could be used as a foundation to perfect a cultivation method that suited her perfectly and fully develop her potential.
As long as one can independently perfect this technique, one will naturally step into the first Grandmaster realm, making one clearly superior to cultivators like her who have painstakingly cultivated and perfected the inheritance.
This can be described as a completely new teaching model that focuses on the future, and it is much more reasonable than the teaching models of their Desire Dao and even the entire cultivation world.
Of course, this path is not without its flaws. In the initial stages, it takes a long time, several times longer than that of cultivators like them who have perfected their inheritance.
However, the girls at the Listening to Rain Pavilion are just low-level personnel trained by their sect to gather intelligence and make money through prostitution.
Even if the cultivation speed is a little slow, it doesn't matter; it suits these girls perfectly.
Moreover, this Formless Divine Art is all-encompassing and extremely inclusive, capable of developing in any direction, even turning into a demonic art. It is most suitable for widespread use in Foundation Establishment.
"You don't mind if I bring more people to take the class with them, do you?"
With a quick glance, Nangong Xian'er sensed an opportunity.
If this new model can be expanded within the sect, it will not only greatly benefit the sect, but also greatly assist her in competing for the position of Holy Maiden, and even in taking over the position of sect leader from her master in the future.
"Do as you please, I don't care!"
Wang Hao genuinely didn't care; teaching a thousand people was the same as teaching a hundred thousand, and it didn't require him to give anything extra.
"However, the competition starts tomorrow, and I'm afraid I won't have much time to teach then!"
After thinking about it, Wang Hao felt that once the competition started, he might not be able to spare much time.
After all, by then I will be exposed to the eyes of all the major powers, which will inevitably attract attention and things will become troublesome.
Most importantly, he needed to stay at the competition venue with the participants to observe the various unique skills and traditions displayed by the contestants.
After all, the Huaxia Empire intends to intimidate all the major powers in the world this time, and the rewards offered for the competition are unprecedentedly generous. The quality and number of participants will definitely far exceed those of the past.
The young talents qualified to participate in the competition must be elite members of various forces, and the cultivation techniques they practice must be of the highest quality.
How could Wang possibly miss such a golden opportunity?
"It's alright, all your previous lessons have been recorded. You just need to come over and provide guidance when you have time."
Nangong Xian'er chuckled quietly, having already planned everything out in her heart.
"That's no problem. By the way, how's your demonic power transformation going?"
Nodding, Wang Hao inquired about the girl's cultivation progress.
Last time, he suggested that this girl transform her unorthodox cultivation method into a demonic Devil Dao that was more suitable for her, and he gave her corresponding guidance.
With this girl's talent, she should be done in the next few days.
You'll see once you try!
With a mysterious smile, Nangong Xian'er suddenly struck out with her palm, unleashing a jet-black Demon Dragon of true energy that shot straight at Wang Hao's face.
She had been tormented by the Dragon Baleful Intent within her for some time, and had been harboring a grudge for a while. Today was the perfect opportunity to get her revenge.
Unfortunately, the result disappointed her, or rather, it was exactly what she expected.
The Demon Dragon energy that had been unleashed was frozen three feet in front of Wang Hao, unable to move an inch, as if he had been subjected to a spell to immobilize him.
Wang Hao, on the other hand, examined and analyzed the Demon Dragon energy unleashed by Nangong Xian'er with great interest, and after a while, he nodded in approval.
"Not bad, not bad. To be able to completely transform the evil true energy within your body into Devil Dao true energy in just five days, your talent is exceptional, and most importantly, you've worked incredibly hard!"
Wang Hao had never doubted the girl's talent and comprehension; she was absolutely top-notch. However, even so, the fact that she could completely demonize her true energy in just five days clearly showed that she had put in a lot of hard work.
As the saying goes, it's not that I'm afraid of someone more talented than me, it's that I'm afraid of someone more talented than me who also works harder than me.
Clearly, Nangong Xian'er is not just a pretty face; she's worth nurturing!
"Girl, I have something to tell you. Would you like to be my...?"
Wang Hao, quite satisfied, began to consider taking on disciples, since he needed to have a large number of disciples to help him spread his teachings in order to complete the system's mission.
Nangong Xian'er is top-notch in terms of intelligence, aptitude, and comprehension. She's also incredibly hardworking, making her practically the perfect tool!
That's right, they're just tools!
In Wang Hao's eyes, anyone who could help him complete system tasks and obtain a large number of Fortune Points was a tool.
"Oh, you're so mean, my lord!"
Before Wang Hao could finish speaking, Nangong Xian'er's fair face flushed with shyness. She stamped her foot and turned away as if embarrassed.
"..."
Completely bewildered, Wang Hao watched the girl run away, utterly baffled as to what had gotten into her this time!
"It's just one more teacher, is it really that big of a deal?"
Wang Hao was completely baffled. Although he had met many women, he still dared not say that he could understand a woman's thoughts, let alone such a cunning and ever-changing enchantress.
What Wang Hao didn't see was that on a pavilion not far to the side, two middle-aged beauties stood one after the other by the window. Half a body length behind them was Song Jiaojiao, the charming woman who had guided Wang Hao here on the street that day. She was also the controller of this Blossoming Flowers Courtyard, or rather, the current Listening to Rain Pavilion, and the person in charge of the Desire Dao Path's base in the Huaxia Nation.
The stunningly beautiful woman at the front looked at Wang Hao, who stood there dumbfounded, and Nangong Xian'er, who ran away with a shy expression, with a strange look on her face.
"Is that the young man Xian'er chose to undergo tribulation?"
Sensing the question from the beautiful woman in front of her, the charming woman behind her Song Jiaojiao, quickly responded.
"The young lady's letter that day did indeed state that this man was her chosen son-in-law, but that name was likely just an alias. I am incompetent and have yet to ascertain his true identity and background."
As she spoke, Song Jiaojiao knelt down on one knee in shame. After all, she was in charge of intelligence gathering in the sect, and now she couldn't even find out about one of the people next to her young mistress. It was indeed a serious dereliction of duty.
"It's only natural that you can't find out. The sect leader should know that kid's identity. Half a year ago, she even ordered the erasure of all traces and information about him."
Right now, only the sect leader and Qing Ming sister Qingming probably know that kid's true identity, and then there's that girl Xian'er!
The beautiful woman waved her hand, signaling her disciple Song Jiaojiao to stand up. She didn't seem to be blaming her, but her gaze towards Wang Hao was filled with even more curiosity.
To understand their core lineage of cultivation Desire Dao, one must first enter into passion, then transcend passion, and finally master one's own passion; only in this way can one achieve a state of complete inner peace.
The path of passion cannot be achieved by oneself alone; one must have an object to whom one's affections are placed.
In the past, each successor would choose a gifted man to truly fall in love with, guide his own desires, and after a certain stage, guide the other person's desires, reaching a point where they truly love each other to the point of death.
When emotions reach their peak, decisively kill the other person to transcend lust. Once the emotional wounds have healed and disappeared, you can completely control your own desires and achieve a state of mental fulfillment.
They call this process of self -Desire Dao cultivation " Transcending the Love Tribulation"!
Judging from his previous appearance, that mysterious young man should be the one chosen by Nangong Xian'er to Transcending the Love Tribulation.
But that kid seems quite extraordinary. If things go wrong, Nangong Xian'er might not be able to Transcending the Love Tribulation, and instead, she might really fall into that kid's hands.
This is going to be interesting!
