Chapter 79: Study hard
The "do your own thing" mentioned in the original poem certainly means studying hard.
As a student at Red Mountain College, the most important thing is, of course, to study. Learn the Demon Dao, cultivate the Demon Weapon, overcome all kinds of difficulties in the process, and finally become a Demon Daoist who is beneficial to the country and the world.
And after the demon seed transplantation ceremony and the subsequent series of riots, Bai Xiao was finally able to officially start the path of demon cultivation with peace of mind.
On April 25th, the first public class for first-year students started on time in the large classroom of the main teaching building.
The person in charge of teaching is Zhu Junshen, and the content of the lecture is "Introduction to the Demon Dao" edited by himself.
Demon Dao, 2,500 years ago, human beings successfully stole the power of the demon race in a battle between humans and demons that was a matter of life and death. The key to its use is two points, one is the magic weapon, that is, the organ of the demon race, only the magic weapon can produce magic energy, as the material for outlining supernatural powers. The second is the demonic sense, which only can properly use the demonic energy and turn it into the required supernatural powers. Magic weapons and magic knowledge complement each other and are indispensable......
The first lesson of Introduction to the Demon Way is undoubtedly a clichΓ©, and even the textbook, which has been revised many times, does not say much new in the opening part. The vast majority of students in the class have already read the entire book before class.
But when Zhu Junshen lectured, people still listened with relish.
In the same way, the weight of writing in a book is different from that of someone telling it. Especially after the interpretation of the great master, it will be even more impressive and deep-rooted. What's more, Zhu Junshen is indeed a very good teacher, he can always quote scriptures and classics when teaching, and use the wonders he has experienced to interpret some common sense that people are so used to turning a blind eye to it.
The one-hour class soon came to an end, and finally, Zhu Junshen closed the textbook and said seriously: "I hope everyone can forget everything I said just now." β
"Huh?"
The students suddenly let out puzzled voices.
"Because everything I just said could be wrong. Zhu Junshen said, "The progress of the theory of the Demon Dao is always accompanied by the rupture of the old theory, and a new theory is born." 2,500 years ago, humans believed that as long as they transplanted enough magic weapons and brought their bodies as close to the demons as possible, they would be able to gain the power to compete with the demons. At that time, in order to achieve this goal, the council even did not hesitate to carry out a large number of human experiments, and established the first generation of magic weapon transplantation projects in the sea of corpses and blood, and the sparks of wisdom that burst out of it are rare even today...... However, it turned out to be a dead end. Mature magic weapons, even if transplanted into the human body in the gentlest way, will trigger an uncontrollable backlash, ranging from the collapse of flesh and blood to the transformation of inhuman beings at worst. β
After a pause, Zhu Junshen said again: "After that, on the basis of countless blood and tears, human beings improved the transplantation technology, invented the demon seed transplantation, completely domesticated the magic weapon, and realized the perfect symbiosis between the magic weapon and the human body. However, it was also at this time that the demonization crisis appeared, and the human beings whose magic energy was too powerful had uncontrollably distorted thinking and cognition. It was only after that that mankind realized the importance of demonic consciousness, and once made the cultivation of demonic consciousness a top priority. β
"But then there was a trough in the Demon Path, and overly suppressed demonic consciousness would lead to slow growth of demonic weapons, and overactive demonic consciousness would inevitably lead to demonization. For a hundred years, mankind has been shrouded in pessimism, and most people believe that the development of demonic civilization has reached an inflection point, so some people seek retro, and some people even pursue the unattainable power of antiquity - but there is an unexpected discovery that Blazing Feather Island was explored in that era. β
"What has allowed mankind to get through the trough is still a new theory that breaks common sense, that is, the emergence of the Blur Domain, relying on the bonds between people to set anchors for each other and lock in human nature. Since then, a new era of demonic prosperity has once again begun. β
"Looking back at these clichΓ©s of history, I want to tell you that no theory can guide humanity forever, and even what I say is likely to be overturned in just a few years. You should always be skeptical when you study the Demon Dao at Hongshan Academy, of course, this is also what I expect from you, and when I give speeches in other colleges, I will tell students to work hard to learn from the fighting spirit of their predecessors and be down-to-earth. β
Amid a chuckle, the freshmen's first public class ended.
After class, Bai Xiao, Yuan Ye and others came to the original poem's laboratory.
The original poem got straight to the point and said: "I heard what the dean said just now? Red Mountain Academy has always had the reputation of being the cradle of geniuses, and the cultivation of geniuses has always been eclectic, if you make a fuss because you blow up a few laboratories or suck up a nest, then you are only worthy of going to White Night City to be a sandbag during the Blazing Feather Island Conference." β
After speaking, the original poem saw expectant eyes around him.
"Well, as you can see, I've designed a training program for each of you, from magic weapons to magic consciousness to physical training. Outside of public classes, you just need to follow my plan. β
As he spoke, he handed over four pamphlets and a thick book to each of his five students.
For a while, the students' eyes lit up, and even Yuan Ye, who had always had a complex perception of the original poem, couldn't wait to open the manual.
No matter how many complaints he had in his heart about his sister, Yuan Ye had never doubted her natural talent.
When she left her family and went to Hongshan City to take the exam alone, she easily crushed nearly 40,000 candidates from the East and West Continents without serious preparation, and won the first place in admission, and the results also refreshed the record that lasted for ten years at that time.
After that, it was like a leap forward, and every year she crossed a distance that others might not have been able to cross in a lifetime.
Become the youngest Demon Dao Master on the continent, open up your own independent Demon Domain, and establish regional hegemony in the Blur Domain...... The original poem's life course of less than 30 years is almost more legendary than her teacher Zhu Junshen!
What kind of genius and unique training program would such a person design for her students?
With intense curiosity, the students flipped through the manual, and after a few seconds, their eyes gradually glazed over.
"Sister...... Teacher, I don't understand a little. Yuan Ye asked, "Is there any essential difference between this plan and the standard plan in public textbooks?"
The original poem said: "This is my certification, you see the cover and my signature......"
"Are you just stamping it!?" "Yuan Ye was shocked, "What about the details that were made for us!?"
Sun Wen next to her also whispered slightly: "Although there is indeed a significant gap between our talent and Senior Brother Bai Xiao, the difference in treatment between you, teacher, is also a little too obvious." β
Gao Yuan touched his chin and groaned, as the owner of the legendary demon seed, of course he also hoped to have a more exciting and unique cultivation plan that would make people shine at a glance, but ......
Only Zuo Qingsui didn't say a word, just silently flipped through the manual and memorized all the contents.
In terms of family background, she is the worst of the 5. In terms of admission results, it is also the last seat, and even the demon seed is the lowest scored. Although many people are already envious of her 90-plus-point demon seed, Zuo Qingsui knows very well that she is the most inconspicuous member of the original poem's laboratory.
She didn't have any dissatisfaction, but felt a little fortunate that she could be so inconspicuously ...... Studying and living together, she has no desires.
As for whether the manual was copied from the textbook by the teacher or specially designed, she didn't really care.
However, Zuo Qingsui, who didn't care about all this, was directly named by the original poem.
"I might as well make a prediction here, in the assessment at the end of this year, among the five of you, Bai Xiao scored first, and the second is Zuo Qingsui. β
The girl immediately let out the mournful screams of the small animals that were being targeted by the hunters.
"Huh?"
The original poem intensified, reached out and patted the girl's immature shoulder, and said, "I'm looking forward to the day when you call her Senior Sister Zuo." β
According to the tradition of Hongshan College, students in the same grade can be referred to each other as classmates, and can be directly referred to by name, and for those who have amazing achievements and obviously surpass their peers, they can be commensurate with senior brothers and sisters.
After the original poem finished speaking, for fear that a few students would not understand, he changed the way of expression: "The three of you are waiting to lick the soles of Zuo Qingsui's shoes." β
Zuo Qingsui was almost in tears.
Teacher, why are you hurting me?!
