”Learn now?”

Upon hearing Zhang Xuan's words, Lu Xun, Tian Long, and the others burst into laughter

Younow? Do you think that the Way of Tea is some ordinary workmanshi+p of those streetside craftsmen? That you can master it just because you said so?

This is an occupation! Even if you ile day, without countless years of effort, it would be impossible for you to bear results You wish to pass the test just by learning right now… Will it kill you to be ood as well This way, you won't be able to lift your head when you lose later on

Lu Xun snorted

While the others were laughing over Zhang Xuan's words, Huang Yu was on the verge of tears She ie to persuade hiree! Lu Xun has specially learnt the Way of Tea and he is skilled in it…”

You don't even knohat the Way of Tea is, yet you wish to coainst an initiate of the Way of Tea Are you sure you aren't joking?

I have seen reckless people before, but I have never seen such a reckless person

”It's no proble Xuan reassured her with a s Xuan's as resolute, Huang Yu panicked, but there was nothing she could do

”H laoshi+ was acting, Elder Tian's face darkened

He had immersed his entire life into the Way of Tea toat all, said that he would learn it right now…

Learn what? Hoill you learn?

Do you think it's playing house? Do you think you will learn the art just by looking at it?

You !

Even the threeat one another, and deep wrinkles for laoshi+'s affair, but this was the first ti him in person They didn't expect him to be such a reckless and frivolous person If he truly had such a character, then despite his capability in ie, they had to reconsider whether they should accept hiin then!” Suppressing the displeasure he felt, Elder Tian gestured ”The test is si'er, you'll brew a pot of tea after which Lu laoshi+ and Zhang laoshi+ will speak of the brewing technique used and its tea aro in soh countless years of inheritance and there were countless schools and techniques The sa a different technique, would have differing fragrances, textures, and colors

That hy there were no right or wrongtea Rather, one could only say whether one was better than the other

A good brewing technique could unleash the full fragrance contained within the tea leaves, nourishi+ng the spirit of those drinking it

”Understood!”

The edges of Tian Long's lips curled up He glanced at Zhang Xuan before taking the tea tray and tea set fro's hands

First, he used ater to heat up the tea set Then, grabbing a few tea leaves, he placed the water When the tea leaves were steeped, the fragrance of the tea ier in the hall

”Incredible!”

”To think that Tian Long would achieve such deep understanding of the Way of Tea despite his young age I'm impressed”

”From the looks of it, Tian laoshi+ has ie down to him Soon, another incredible tea do's movements, the three master teachers nodded their head in approval

They had learnt the Way of Tea froh they hadn't reached the level of an official tea master, they had immersed themselves in the art for e in it Thus, they were able to see that Tian Long's skills were extraordinary

”There are four levels to the Way of Tea, namely Redolent Hue, Essence Restoration, Infused Intentions, and Diffusing Fragrance! Even though nothing much can be said about his character, it is a fact that he possessed outstanding skills in the Way of Tea Judging fro technique, he should have already reached the second level, Essence Restoration!”

Afraid that Zhang Xuan couldn't tell as happening, Huang Yu was co with him via telepathy

”The first level, Redolent Hue It refers to the level where the tea one produces has reached a certain level ofto the eye and the nose Don't underestimate this level just because it is the lowest one In order to reach it, you need to have a clear understanding of the amount of water and tea leaves you must use, as well as the state of the tea set Without years of hard work, it is difficult to reach this level

”The second level, which is the real is currently at, is called Essence Restoration At this level, you are no longer just showing off your skill Rather, at this level, you infuse the art of tea brewing into your bones, granting therance of the tea leaves out, allowing others to taste the most authentic tea

”As for the third level, Infused Intentions, it is si The tea maker now understands the very essence of the Way of Tea, reaching the level where they are able to infuse their own artistic conception into the tea they brew Those drinking it can experience the eh the tea he produces At this level, one can take the tea master examinations and become an official tea master

”Last but not least, the fourth level, Diffusing Fragrance At this level, one can allow the fragrance of the tea to travel vast distances, such that people within several thousand li can srance of the tea to the cup,such a tea would feel as though they were drinking a heavenly elixir Elder Tian has reached such a level, and you can see the stea over top the cup of tea he has poured Upon reaching this level, not only will one be able to experience the full fragrance of the tea, the tea will also be warm no matter when one drinks it It won't turn cold with the passing of ti Yu seeeable of the Way of Tea, and she explained the various levels that a cup of tea could reach to Zhang Xuan

Knowing that she was trying to help hirateful

After hearing her words, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but be i was

Just these four levels would require one to immerse themselves in the Way of Tea for their entire lifeti, Tian Long finished brewing his tea He slowly poured it out, the tea gushi+ng out like a fountain The delightful sound of the tea lapping against the sides of the teacup echoed in the air, as if created by an instrument

”I've e the tea into the teacup, the true fragrance of the tea immediately eizing quality to it,slee
