Chapter 149: Ink and Demon
“I can’t believe you actually broke through and became a Zhoutian martial artist. Congratulations! Congratulations!”
In that classroom, Shi Feizhe said to Old Man Fan.
Besides the two of them, there were also Guan Shan and Huang Goudan.
“It’s all thanks to Academy Head Shi’s good teaching!” Old Man Fan said modestly, without a trace of the crazed look he had when he was hitting people earlier.
“How can I take credit for that! It’s clearly because you have more understanding and accumulation, it’s your own ability!” Shi Feizhe laughed: “I’m not like some success gurus who claim all the credit for their students’ achievements, completely negating the students’ efforts and talent!”
“Academy Head Shi is being modest!” Old Man Fan said with a big laugh.
His smile was also ordinary, just like a sixty-year-old man.
The wisdom in his Sea of Consciousness made him realize that Shi Feizhe was not ordinary.
“What are your plans next?” Shi Feizhe asked.
“What plans?” Old Man Fan asked, puzzled.
“You’re already a Zhoutian martial artist, the Jianghu is vast, but you have a place to settle down.” Shi Feizhe said: “Are you still willing to be an accountant at Qing Shan Martial Academy?”
“Of course! Why wouldn’t I be an accountant! What else can I do if I don’t do accounting?” Old Man Fan said with emotion: “Academy Head Shi speaks so well, everyone at Qing Shan Martial Academy is talented, I love it here.”
“Is the Academy Head disliking me?” he asked.
“No! I don’t dislike you, I’m just afraid you might dislike Qing Shan Martial Academy.” Shi Feizhe shook his head and said: “A Zhoutian martial artist is the master of a manor, the head of a town, anywhere they go. Even in Luoyang, there are only a dozen or so Zhoutian martial artists.”
“With the world so vast, to have a Zhoutian martial artist be my accountant, wouldn’t I become like the Jiang Family.”
“Ha~ Without becoming a True Person, ultimately you’re just a bowing and scraping tool.” Old Man Fan laughed: “Qing Shan Martial Academy is still the best!”
“Yes! Qing Shan Martial Academy is the best!” Huang Goudan chimed in.
He looked at Old Man Fan with envy, not only had he become a Zhoutian martial artist, but he could also help Academy Head Shi.
“Of course Qing Shan Martial Academy is good!” Guan Shan also said.
The atmosphere was relaxed, there wasn’t much hierarchy, and there were martial arts to practice. Aside from the multiplication tables being a bit hard to memorize, and division being a bit difficult to understand, everything was great.
It was the best atmosphere he had experienced in all the gangs and sects he had joined!
“Alright, alright, in that case, I’ll go to the kitchen and prepare some dishes, let’s add some extra dishes today!” Shi Feizhe said with a smile.
“That’s great!” Everyone said in unison.
Old Man Fan watched Shi Feizhe’s retreating figure with a smile, while pondering in his heart.
【Can he even detect my ulterior motives like this?】
【As expected of Academy Head Shi!】
【I’ll endure, endure until I become a True Person!】
For the next ten days, nothing happened at Qing Shan Martial Academy, as if it were just a martial arts school with few students.
Shi Feizhe’s lessons, pinyin was almost finished teaching. Math… was still stuck on division.
Division and remainders, for people who had just memorized the multiplication tables, were indeed a bit confusing.
In addition to this, Shi Feizhe also taught a bit of natural science and moral education!
When Guan Shan, Huang Goudan, and Old Man Fan learned that the world beneath their feet was a sphere, their expressions were the same as Xiong Ba’s.
@. @
When Shi Feizhe started talking about moral education and some martial virtues, all three of them felt drowsy.
Why did Academy Head Shi also become a pedantic scholar, starting to talk about these pedantic things.
✿✿✿
The Jianghu, isn’t it all about fighting and killing!
Only by becoming a True Person can one be considered a human, a superior being!
If you’re not a True Person, everything you say is bullshit.
Xiong Ba, on the other hand, listened attentively, even more so than during math class!
Can the world really be like this?
He felt Shi Feizhe was like a towering mountain, and doubts arose in his heart.
While they were in class, Hua Xiaomei, drenched in sweat, finally finished repairing the wall of the reception room.
He had never known that doing plastering work was so troublesome.
When he was young, he had been interested in carpentry, but he really had no interest in plastering.
Material selection, measurement, cutting, planing, chiseling, sanding, joining, and assembly, he understood all the processes of carpentry.
But mixing mud, plastering, smoothing, and painting, he had really never done it before, and only finished it with Xiong Ba’s help!
The newly built wall looked like a huge scar embedded in the original wall, incredibly ugly, barely passable!
Hua Xiaomei remembered when he was a child, he saw a 《History of the Mohists》 in the old residence’s library. It recorded that the majority of the Demon Sect’s techniques were developed through years of accumulated experience and insights gained from daily work, and then deduced through the collective wisdom of many people.
For example, the 《Eleven Cuts》 originated from an idea that came to the Mohists a long time ago while they were cutting and digging. If there was a technique that could cut through everything, wouldn’t their work be much easier!
Another example is the 《Heaven and Earth Yin Yang Intertwined Hand》, which came about a long time ago when some assembly craftsmen, faced with difficult to reach spots during their work, had an idea. If there was a technique that could ignore distance and angles to assemble mortise and tenon joints and drive nails, wouldn’t that be great!
And the 《Questioning Heart Hammer》, which could hammer anything! Even the Huang Family’s 《Grand Zhoutian Flame》, which no one has been able to master to this day, all originated in this way.
Hua Xiaomei didn’t believe it at first, but now he did.
If he had mastered the 《Heaven and Earth Yin Yang Intertwined Hand》, plastering and painting would have been extremely fast.
But… with the 《Heaven and Earth Yin Yang Intertwined Hand》, who the hell would still do plastering!
Isn’t it better to be a superior being?
Martial arts is violence, it’s power, it’s the only way to become a superior being.
With martial arts, who the hell would work hard!
With martial arts, you can just make others do it!
As for whether others work hard or not, it’s not you who’s working hard, so of course you won’t feel the hardship!
The Mohists, from then on, became the Demon Sect!
Those craftsmen who held onto old ideas were gradually killed, the remaining ones were driven to the south, some to the north, and some simply disappeared.
The techniques that were originally created due to the needs of craftsmen, after continuous refinement, became a means of oppressing ordinary craftsmen.
It’s truly ironic!
But this is the Jianghu, this is reality, this is the human world.
Therefore, this is the true path of humanity.
Only by consuming others can one become strong, martial arts is about oppressing others!
He was on the right path from the beginning!
Hua Xiaomei’s understanding of martial arts deepened, the sword mirror he visualized in his mind began to change, faintly about to split into a Sword Heart.
He had been practicing the 《Clear Sword Heart》 these past few days, which involved visualizing a sword mirror splitting into a Sword Heart, and then slaying the Sword Heart.
Visualizing the sword mirror was smooth, but he was stuck at splitting the Sword Heart.
He didn’t quite understand how to split the Sword Heart.
Now, as he gained new insights into the world, the Sword Heart was about to split.
He decided to enter seclusion right away, slay the Sword Heart, break through to the True Person realm, and then…
Looking at the sound of Shi Feizhe’s preaching coming from the classroom, Hua Xiaomei sneered.
Practicing the nonsense technique he casually made up from his Grand Medicine. The Jianghu is truly…
