Where Was the Best Place to Study? In the Back Row, by the Window
Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi couldn't help but rub his forehead, thinking to himself:
"You're an old comrade who's over a thousand years old!"
Of course, despite his words, Lu Changzhi still took out a piece of Black Dragon meat and handed it to Lu Yuan.
Being praised is always very pleasing.
Besides, this Black Dragon jerky isn't anything rare.
This food tastes good at first, but the quantity is overwhelming.
In the past, each cut only covered a small portion relative to the Black Dragon, but it was still quite a large amount.
What we couldn't finish was all made into jerky.
Later on, only Gu Chen still had a special fondness for Black Dragon jerky.
However, it now seems that someone else is equally matched in this matter.
Lu Yuan was greatly pleased as he accepted the dried Black Dragon meat.
This little meat jerky is truly amazing; it's only about half the size of a palm, but it's so satisfying to eat!
Then, with good wine and good food, Lu Yuan also took out a jar of wine.
For a time, amidst the leisurely sermons of the Academy's powerful figures, the three of them raised their cups and bowls, eating and drinking with great relish.
"Good."
After a satisfying meal, Lu Changzhi nodded in satisfaction.
Let's not talk about the wine or the food.
It was precisely this situation that brought his thoughts back to the present moment.
If you ask where is the best place to study, it's right in the back row by the window.
Of course, that's just talk.
The cloned head that was placed there seemed to be working quite well.
Knowledge enters the brain on its own, and you can't stop it.
I didn't do any studying, I just focused my mind on it, and I didn't miss anything.
"System, you really are my little darling."
Lu Changzhi praised him.
"Master, Xiang Li is your true darling."
Upon hearing this, Lu Changzhi shook his head:
"His cotton-padded coat is letting in the wind now, but yours is different; it never leaks, which puts people at ease."
After the sound faded, the system hesitated for a moment:
"What the master said seems a little strange."
"You."
Lu Changzhi shook his head and smiled:
"Not easily praised."
After saying that, Lu Changzhi withdrew his thoughts and looked to the side.
Mu Fan probably understood Lu Changzhi's intention, so he stepped aside and voluntarily made room for him.
Just the right amount, not too much, not too little, perfect for lying down.
Lu Changzhi glanced at Mu Fan:
"You're being so proactive, it makes me feel like you have something you want me to do."
"That's nonsense."
Mu Fan waved his hand, then looked righteous and awe-inspiring.
"As a disciple, isn't this all I should do?"
Lu Changzhi couldn't help but smile.
There was more or less an element to it—a Lu Yuan of sweet talk between them.
They didn't continue the conversation.
With the sun high in the sky and a spot available, it would be a real shame not to take a nap.
After setting up the mattress and arranging various formations, Lu Changzhi took a nap.
Lu Yuan watched Lu Changzhi's entire routine of eating and sleeping in Jingjing, his face filled with disbelief.
This shows they don't take the Law Contemplation Gathering seriously at all.
But on second thought, it doesn't seem so strange.
After all, he entered the Saint Realm at the age of eighteen. With such a brilliant achievement as a precedent, everyone present now pales in comparison. It wouldn't matter if they didn't listen.
What he couldn't quite understand was...
Could this kid really have acquired his strength and cultivation through sleeping?
Otherwise, why would they be so enthusiastic about sleeping?
Unable to understand, Lu Yuan could only feel a pang of envy in his heart.
Soon, Lu Changzhi fell asleep.
In stark contrast to Lu Changzhi's relaxed demeanor, everyone else present was equally at ease.
When these powerful figures from the Academy preach, they try to cater to cultivators of lower levels so that they can also benefit from the teachings, and they usually don't make the teachings too obscure or profound.
Even so, the gap in understanding is ultimately insurmountable. Many insights and experiences can only Easy Enlightenment when one's understanding reaches a certain level.
Therefore, for the vast majority of people, much of what they hear and experience is somewhat beyond their comprehension.
But something is better than nothing.
Try your best to understand, try your best to comprehend, understand as much as you can, and try to feel as much as possible.
This method of contemplation lasted for three full days.
During this period, several powerful figures from the Academy came to the lecture platform one after another.
Afterwards, powerful figures from various factions took this opportunity to speak about methods related to their own cultivation.
Although they are not as skilled at expounding the Dharma as the experts in the Academy, and their teachings are often somewhat obscure, they have the advantage of being different from the academy and possessing their own unique characteristics.
In short, for the cultivators from all sides who came, there was undoubtedly something to gain from hearing the teachings of different powerful figures.
If not for such an opportunity, for the vast majority of practitioners, it would be extremely rare to hear a powerful practitioner say a few words about cultivation.
When no more powerful figures stepped onto the preaching platform, the audience reacted in various ways, but most showed excitement and emotion. Some were so excited that they beamed with joy, saying they had gained a lot, while others frowned, deep in thought.
"Next, we'll get to things that truly concern us. I hope that the insights I've gained over the past few days will be enough to make this trip worthwhile."
"The competition among those prodigies will begin soon. So many talented individuals have come this time; I wonder who will be the first to reach the main courtyard."
"Is there even a question? It's definitely Xiang Li from the Xiang Clan. He's so strong, how could he not be the first to do something like this?"
"That's hard to say. This isn't a contest of strength; the ability to comprehend and cultivate shouldn't be confused with strength."
"What you say makes some sense, but don't forget, Xiang Li is the descendant of two great Saint Emperor, and that Saint Emperor Murong specializes in a path related to willpower. Do you think Xiang Li's ability to comprehend and cultivate this path would be weak?"
"Alright, alright, what's there to argue about? Mind your own business. If you're just busy watching the show, you'll regret it when it's all over. Once you're inside, you should try to do as much meditation and practice as possible."
With the conclusion of the Dharma talk, the final and most important part of the Law Contemplation Gathering became the focus of everyone's attention.
Hearing a powerful person preach the Dharma is more of a high-level understanding, but for the vast majority of people, observing the Dharma is more important.
Or rather, there is hope that one can learn it within a certain period of time and truly apply it in the short term.
Furthermore, in terms of the diversity of spiritual practice alone, this next stage is truly of paramount importance.
Furthermore, the fact that Shen Wenxi's engagement is also related to this adds an even greater, albeit unspoken, importance.
Whether they wanted to watch the excitement, gain something, or take a gamble, everyone was excited.
Lu Changzhi also paid attention to it, showing a clear advantage in terms of interest.
"It's finally starting."
Speaking softly, Lu Changzhi looked at Xiao Ye in the crowd, a hint of curiosity on his face.
I wonder how Xiao Ye plans to make a name for himself.
"They're both major surnames, so there shouldn't be a case of initial suppression followed by praise."
