16 Hiding Cultivation 4 (1/2)
”Good, good. Could you tell us about Zhang Xuan's teachings and give us an evaluation of his ability?”
Lu Fengyi nodded before reaching into his robes and pulling out a small list of notes. Although Lu Fengyi knew all the concepts off the top of his head, he had written down Zhang Xuan's teachings so that he could recite the words without mistake. If not, it was quite likely that Wang Ying sense that something was wrong.
”Ahem, although I paid my full attention to what Zhang laoshi was saying during the lesson, I was only able to capture about half of it. The contents included...”
As Lu Fengyi voiced out each of the points he had written down, he noticed that the originally disbelieving expressions of the elders began to change. With each passing word, their faces became more and more shocked as their mouths widened to the size of an egg. Not only them, even grand elder Li and the sect leader Wang Hong expressed their amazement at the profoundness behind the theories.
”... only then can the cycle of spiritual energy be complete.” Lu Fengyi took a deep breath before indicating that he had finished.
Looking up, Lu Fengyi could see the dozen or so elders and the clan head all looking at him as if he was a monster, ”Uh, seniors? Is there something wrong?”
Recovering quickly from the entrancement he had been put in during Lu Fengyi's reciting of notes, sect leader Wang Hong stood up before announcing, ”Ying'er, you must not withdraw from this Zhang laoshi's lesson at all cost! You must learn from him diligently…”
Wang Ying eyes shone with excitement, ”Yes father!”
”Speaking of which, would little friend Lu Fengyi like stay for dinner? I wish to thank you for taking care of my daughter and enlightening me to Zhang Xuan's true capability.” Wang Hong stepped while making a gesture to what seemed like a handshake.
Acknowledging the gesture, Lu Fengyi took the hand and shook it tight, ”I'm honoured to receive this opportunity. I thank clan head for your generosity!”
”Hahaha! Good, good! Ying'er, take Lu Fengyi to your courtyard and entertain him while we get the feast ready!” Now that Wang Hong had realised Wang Ying had indeed chosen a good teacher, his mood had soared, and his spirit was pumping with excitement.
Slightly dazed by the sudden change in attitude, Wang Ying stood up and faced Lu Fengyi, ”I'll take you to my courtyard. We can further discuss the contents of the lessons there.”
Lu Fengyi smiled before turning back to the elders above, ”There is one more thing I'd like to say.”
Heart still beating quickly from excitement, Wang Hong waved his hand in approval.
”Wang Ying xiaojie, would you be kind enough to strike the Strength Measuring Rock Pillar?” Lu Fengyi pointed to the rock pillar in the corner of the room.
Wang Ying nodded before stepping up to the pillar to lashing a sharp kick towards the pile of stones. Instantly, the rock pillar shook, and a series of numbers appeared upon it.
205!
Too shocked to speak, the elders could only stare on. Wang Ying did not stop at this, turning around, she threw a punch towards the pillar.
120!
