Chapter 134: A Failed Lesson

Supreme Wisdom?

Guan Shan expressed, seeing Academy Head Shi, he knew this thing was a trap, I won’t listen, I won’t listen.

Huang Goudan expressed, Academy Head Shi is so strong, could it be because of supreme wisdom? I want to learn!

Old Man Fan expressed, I’m an old bone, saving some money for retirement is the greatest wisdom.

Xiong Ba had a dull look, as if he had heard but not heard.

As if he heard.

Four people, four expressions, Shi Feizhe in front of the blackboard saw it clearly.

Damn it, how are all the students like this? How can we spread martial arts throughout the land?!

The little kid he tricked with candy during the day was driven home by his father before dark, for fear that Shi Feizhe would continue to abduct him!

Actually, during this period of time, there were indeed people from the Jianghu who came to inquire about the flyers. After all, this place is at the junction of three provinces, where there are all kinds of people, and naturally there is no shortage of people who are willing to take a gamble.

However, these people failed to pass the moral character test, and Shi Feizhe rejected them.

The Jianghu is already chaotic enough. If these people are taught martial arts, wouldn’t it be even more chaotic?

By then, spreading martial arts throughout the land would turn into chaos throughout the land. When will the Jianghu ever be peaceful?!

In the initial stage of Qing Shan Martial Academy, it’s better to have a shortage than excess!

Therefore, in the past ten days, there were only four of them in Qing Shan Martial Academy, and now there is one more genius, Xiong Ba.

“Supreme wisdom is actually a method of understanding the world. One must be skeptical of the world and ordinary things, thus generating ‘why’! It is because of ‘why’ that there are ideas of inquiry and argumentation, and that wisdom is born!”

“Wisdom is not eternal, unchanging, or unquestionable. ”

“The world is material, and people are also material, but True Qi is idealistic!”

“What is materialism? What is idealism?”

“Matter is objective and exists independently of our senses……!”

Shi Feizhe began to briefly express his views on the world.

Matter came first, then people, then consciousness. With consciousness, there is True Qi, and True Qi in turn changes matter.

He thought it was reasonable.

Guan Shan didn’t want to listen at first, but……he found that he couldn’t understand even if he wanted to.

@. @

What is Academy Head Shi talking about?!

What matter, what consciousness, what comes first, matter or consciousness!

What, what, what?!

He felt a little sleepy.

Huang Goudan listened attentively and even took notes with a charcoal stick.

He felt that even if he couldn’t understand it, he would be able to understand it after copying it several times… right?

Do you need to know about matter and consciousness to practice martial arts?

Is there a connection?

As for Old Man Fan……his eyes were blank, his gaze dull, as if he was wandering in a trance.

What supreme wisdom!

It’s supreme sleepiness!

Who wouldn’t be sleepy listening to this?!

Can’t we have class during the day instead of at night?

If he asked Shi Feizhe, Shi Feizhe would tell him that he had other things to do during the day.

As for the genius Xiong Ba, he seemed to understand, and yet he didn’t seem to understand.

Many things couldn’t cause him to ripple, as if he was a shining pearl, able to reflect and respond to things. But those things were like water on a pearl, unable to penetrate his heart.

“Do you understand?” Shi Feizhe said, his mouth dry, and saw the four people below drowsy. The only one who wasn’t drowsy was Xiong Ba with his eyes wide open.

“Xiong Ba, do you… understand?” Shi Feizhe asked.

（〓￣（∵エ∵）￣〓）ゞ

“I don’t understand!” Xiong Ba said blankly.

“…”

✿✿✿

Could it be that his lesson was too profound?

No, he understood this when he was a teenager.

Wait…when he was a teenager, he at least received nine years of compulsory education, which was better than many illiterates in this world.

Should he also provide them with nine years of compulsory education?

Hmm…

“Ahem…” Shi Feizhe cleared his throat and said, “How about this. I dare say it’s meaningless. Let me give you a question!”

Shi Feizhe saw the four of them perk up, slowly exiting their confused state, and then said:

“Xiao Wang bought three bowls and had eight wen left. If he bought five bowls, he would have two wen left. How much money did Xiao Wang have in total?”

This question was a second-grade problem from his previous life. It wasn’t that Shi Feizhe didn’t know higher-grade math problems, but that he was afraid they wouldn’t understand them at all!

“What kind of bowl is so expensive!” Guan Shan wondered, he couldn’t figure it out.

He usually had difficulty with large sums of addition and subtraction, so this problem was a bit beyond his reach.

Huang Goudan tried it with a pen. He used a rather clumsy method, trying it bit by bit. On the third try, he figured out that the price of a bowl was three wen, and then he concluded that Xiao Wang had a total of seventeen wen.

Old Man Fan was an old accountant, and he understood this kind of problem at a glance. This kind of problem was much simpler than the chicken and rabbit in the same cage problem.

As for Xiong Ba, he was still the same as before, as if he had heard and yet not heard!

“Guan Shan! Have you figured it out?” Shi Feizhe looked at Guan Shan, the first disciple of the academy.

“I don’t understand.” Guan Shan spread his hands and said plausibly, “I also don’t understand what this has to do with martial arts!”

“Martial arts are practiced, not calculated!” He had been listening for a whole evening, first he was dizzy from hearing things like “subjective, objective, materialism, idealism”, and then he had to do a useless math problem.

He wasn’t an accountant, even if he could calculate, it wouldn’t make his martial arts stronger!

“…” Shi Feizhe looked at Guan Shan and took note.

Seeing the look in Shi Feizhe’s eyes, Guan Shan remembered that Academy Head Shi was petty!

Oh no!

“Seventeen wen!” Huang Goudan quickly said when he saw Shi Feizhe looking at him.

“Good!” Shi Feizhe was overjoyed and said, “How did you figure it out?”

“Uh…” Huang Goudan said, “I tried it one by one!”

“…” Shi Feizhe looked at Old Man Fan.

Old Man Fan smiled and said, “Two bowls cost six wen. Then five bowls plus two wen is naturally seventeen wen.”

It would be strange if Old Man Fan couldn’t calculate this kind of children’s problem.

Shi Feizhe looked at Xiong Ba again and said, “Xiong Ba, do you understand?”

“Calculate what?”

“Calculate the problem!”

“Why calculate?” Xiong Ba said earnestly, “I’m still waiting for him to decide how many bowls to buy. He buys three at one time and five at another. How many does he actually want to buy?”

“…”

“Buzz!” Shi Feizhe felt his blood rushing to his head, his brain buzzing, even experiencing slight dizziness.

“Class dismissed!” Shi Feizhe angrily threw the chalk and was the first to leave the classroom.

What a failed lesson!

The other four looked at each other, not understanding why Shi Feizhe was so angry.

Guan Shan looked at Xiong Ba, and Xiong Ba looked at Guan Shan.

Guan Shan gave a thumbs up!

Xiong Ba was expressionless, not even a hint of pride.

He was used to it.

Xiong Ba: This person is so troublesome! （The foreshadowing plot still needs to be written. ）
