Chapter 531 Phoenix Tree (2/2)

Wuding's oddity too was spread around. He was seen as the most outstanding young man in Yinshang and he was thought to be the future master of Yinshang.

Emperor Xia did not have a daughter and hence he favored Lei Jing strongly. Even though Lei Jing was not a princess, her status was not too different from one. A lot of people thought that the battle between Wuding and Lei Jing was a showdown between Xia and Shang. As Lei Jing was a woman, it was alright if she lost but It was not the case for Wuding.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.

This was the most stressful challenge for Wuding in his life as the reason for battle was because of a joke between Shen Lian and Guan Longzi.

Shen Lian was not at Zhiwei Temple but the Dynasty School. Guan Longzi was at the school too. Due to the upcoming battle between Lei Jing and Wuding, a lot of the students had lost interest in the class. In addition to the fact that Guan Longzi did not add anything new, instead, he kept repeating the same principles.

That was why there was nobody in the classroom. Even if there was, it was Shen Lian.

Shen Lian listened to Guan Longzi's lecture from the start till the end today and Guan Longzi too followed the sequence of the knowledge as he spoke.

After he finished, Shen Lian clapped, ”Even though I've never observed your Lianshan but I am already extremely interested in it.”

The knowledge taught by Guan Longzi was not difficult. It mainly involved the division of the four seasons, the twenty-four changes in Qi dynamic in a year and also the location when the sun rose from the east and set in the west.

The knowledge was dead and not particularly useful. That was why the students were not too interested.

Shen Lian however, managed to understand at a deeper level about what Guan Longzi said. It involved the principles of the world and the understanding towards the world. The knowledge that Guan Longzi was teaching was something unchangeable, something as rigid as the mountain.

Shen Lian had the temperament of water as he had countless forms. As such, when he fought with others, he could adapt quickly. He did not stick to just one cultivation method. This was his strength but it could hinder his development.

Guan Longzi was different. He did not change what he believed in and he could stay put in everything he did. His Dao was unbreakable, like a free-standing mountain, whether you saw it or not, mountain remained as a mountain.

Guan Longzi smiled, ”Lei Jing may not win and hence you may not be able to get Lianshan for me. Furthermore, Lianshan is my Dao and not yours. You better not have too high an expectation, else you will only be disappointed.

”Jing Er will not lose, even if Wuding's knife technique has entered the path of Daoism and that he has received guidance from Wen Zhong every day.” Shen Lian spoke slowly.

”I know you're confident but do you know what is Zi Zhao's level now?” Guan Longzi asked slowly.

”I don't want to know.” Shen Lian looked at Guan Longzi with a serious look.

Guan Longzi could not help but laugh. Shen Lian was indeed fun at times and you would never be able to guess what he was thinking and would be doing.

Spending time with such a person would not be too boring.

Wuding was currently at Lake East which was at the outskirt of Diqiu.

Wen Zhong, riding on top of a black Qilin was on top of a small hill. From there one could see the Lake East. It was a gorgeous view.

A topless young man jumped into the water.

He was holding a light wooden sword. While the water of the lake seemed calm, in reality, it was the hideout for many gigantic sea mammals.

Some sea mammals were just average in terms of cultivation level and spirituality but they were talented and had strong power. They could even cause a small tsunami for all four corners.

The young man was naturally Wuding. He was now at Lake East and his mana was sealed.
