C742 A Weapon That will Yield Without a Fight
Chen Chang He's words were like a clap of spring thunder, exploding in the hall.
"What does he mean?"
"What do you mean that the fifth round of the Dao Debate should not exist?"
"Baili Ziwei has already lost?"
"This brat was forced to the point where he lost all his moves. Is that why he used such a subconscious move?"
"So embarrassing …"
Even the disciples of the Chen family could not stand watching such arrogant words spoken out loud.
For these proud Chen family disciples, they could lose, but they had to be upright and not embarrass themselves.
The people suddenly thought of Chen Chang He's origins.
Although he was also a descendant of the Chen Clan, after all, he had come all the way here from the Greencloud Continent. In such a remote place, what kind of genius could he possibly produce?
Not to mention that Chen Changgui did indeed have the legendary ability to challenge the Chen Mansion alone, in terms of manners and quality, he was on par with the Chen family's ordinary disciples. Otherwise, how could he not admit defeat and instead play tricks?
Chen Ying was also startled, but just as he was about to speak, Chen Chang He seemed to have turned to look at him and shook his head lightly.
Chen Ying frowned, although he still did not have much confidence in Chen Chang Ku, he still shut his mouth and chose to wait and see.
He wanted to see what this guy, who had taken advantage of his several steamed buns in Old Song's bun house, was up to.
The disciples of the Chen Academy thought that Chen Chang He was just playing some tricks, but Chen Ying knew that he was extremely accurate. Although they did not know what Chen Chang Si wanted to do, Chen Chang He was not someone who could not afford to lose.
Song Kui had wanted to say something at first, but seeing that the head of the Chen Academy, Chen Guan, was able to remain calm when facing this kind of thing, he sat down and did not say a word. He only turned his gaze to Chen Chang Ku, and slowly started to size him up.
At that moment, Baili Ziwei was also looking at Chen Chang He.
She did not carefully size up Chen Chang You, but looked at the latter's smiling face that seemed to deserve a beating, and coldly said: "New trick?"
The moment her voice was heard, the sermon hall immediately quietened down.
The crowd looked at Chen Chang Ku, wanting to see how he would explain himself.
Chen Chang Ku smiled, not only was he not acting like a scoundrel like how people believed, he asked in a clear voice: "What is cultivation path? And what is it? Is it a matter of the heart, or is it a matter of cultivation? "
Baili Ziwei calmly replied, "Of course."
Chen Chang Zai laughed: "Since you have both, let me say both. Let us first talk about the cultivation that increases our cultivation. Let me ask you, how did you become a cultivator? "
Baili Ziwei indifferently said, "I have a special cultivation technique to help me become a cultivator."
"Isn't that enough?"
Chen Chang Mo answered, "A teacher should impart knowledge and work to dispel doubts." If you acknowledge someone as your master, your master will hand over the cultivation method to you. If you follow the cultivation method and cultivate, you will naturally become a cultivator. Cultivation methods were simply a method to refine the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth into the Spiritual Qi that one could control. It could also be considered a method to borrow the strength of the world to strengthen one's own body. Since people only needed to use the cultivation method according to the rules to become cultivators, then what was the point in discussing this so-called cultivation method? On the quality of the cultivation techniques possessed by cultivators? It had to do with family background and luck. What was there to talk about? In terms of talent? That is natural, or perhaps coincidentally, one could be reborn by chance, what is there to talk about? "
Without waiting for Baili Ziwei to speak, Chen Changyu continued: "The stronger cultivators, in terms of the first cultivation path, are somewhat interesting. Because cultivators who are strong to a certain extent will have their own unique understanding of cultivation techniques, they have already reached the point of creating their own new cultivation techniques. But can juniors like us create new cultivation methods? If we cannot, then our cultivation will only be done step by step, and we will be able to breathe according to the cultivation methods we possess. Then, what can we say about the first cultivation method? "
With this said, the surrounding people raised their eyebrows.
Chen Chang He's words were easy to understand, of course they understood.
Most importantly, Chen Chang He's argument was not that he could not hold back, but that he had some truth in his words, and said it as if it was proper.
Baili Ziwei also nodded her head, "Since you say that there is no need to discuss the cultivation of the first method, then what about the second method?"
Chen Chang Xiao shrugged his shoulders. "The second method of cultivation is even more unnecessary."
Baili Ziwei asked, "Why?"
This time, Chen Changyu did not answer first, but asked back, "If this debate really starts, what are you going to say?"
Baili Ziwei said without any hesitation, "The heart is like a mirror. It is the state of mind I want to cultivate."
"Your heart is as clear as a mirror. Can you replace it with Confucianism?"
Baili Ziwei calmly replied, "Sure."
Chen Chang Chen said, "The Confucius principles, the books that are written on paper, can be read by everyone in the world. The great sage of Confucianism has already set a few levels for us, stand, do not doubt, understand the destiny, listen to the ear, do not exceed the moment. You speak according to the same logic, and I speak according to the same logic. We speak according to the same logic, is there any meaning to it? "Could it be that we can be like those old scholars, arguing till our necks turn red just for a different point of view?"
Baili Ziwei said indifferently: "If you say it like that, then we really do not need to discuss this. After all, each person has their own path of cultivation, and each person has their own state of mind. However, when have I ever said that I would discuss the second method of cultivation? "
Chen Changsheng smiled and asked, "Then, Miss Baili, what do you want to discuss?"
Baili Ziwei calmly replied, "The purest form of cultivation."
Chen Chang Chen asked, "How is it pure?"
Baili Ziwei replied, "It does not concern one's cultivation level, nor does it concern one's thoughts. It only concerns one's Dao."
Chen Chang He laughed, "The scope of that word is too big. You did not explain it clearly enough, but I still understand what you mean." "In that case, in your opinion, what is cultivation?"
Baili Ziwei said, "It conforms to the Heavenly Dao. Let nature take its course."
Chen Chang'e laughed. "How can we let nature take its course?"
Baili Ziwei said, "If you're hungry, eat. If you're tired, sleep."
Chen Chang Zhu laughed.
Baili Ziwei asked, "What are you laughing about?"
Chen Chang Zai said, "I laughed because I remembered a few words."
Baili Ziwei asked, "What words?"
Chen Chang Mo replied, "I am tired from eating and sleeping, so I only train to be mysterious." They say that they don't believe it, but they look for immortals outside of them. "
Baili Ziwei said, "There's a conflict between them?"
Chen Chang Xiao said in amusement, "There is no conflict. But since there's no conflict, letting nature take its course is naturally your path. So what are you talking about? "
With that said, Baili Ziwei paused slightly.
What are you talking about?
This sentence sounded a little weird at first, because there was no direct relationship between the theory and nature. However, after thinking about it carefully, there was some reasoning behind it.
However, Baili Ziwei was still unable to grasp onto the light that had flashed through her mind. She was still unable to ascertain exactly what kind of logic it was.
He couldn't help but notice that Baili Ziwei's brows were tightly locked together as she sank into deep thought.
"Wake up!"
At this moment, Song Kui's shout was like a thunderclap.
Baili Ziwei abruptly woke up and raised her head.
Song Kui said harshly, "Just let nature be your path. In terms of Dao, it is something you have to do. There is no relationship between the two, so why are you pondering!? "This fellow intentionally used such a method to disrupt your state of mind, forcing you to produce inner demons. How malicious is that!"
Baili Ziwei had clearly awoken from her deep thoughts, but upon hearing these words, she abruptly paused for a moment before taking a step back. Then, she cupped her hands together and bowed to Song Kui.
If Song Kui's sudden words had not woken her up, she, who had been taken advantage of by Chen Chang He's words, would have definitely had an inner demon!
The smarter a person was, the harder it was to decipher the Devil's Will.
With her talent, wasting several decades of time on inner demons would truly be a waste.
Song Kui suddenly turned around and looked at Chen Chang He coldly. "That brat Gui, although he is still young, he has such a malicious heart. If he is able to achieve greatness in the future, wouldn't he be a human demon!"
Chen Chang Xian said coldly: "Elder Song, only the officials of the Xu Prefecture can set the fires, and we are not allowed to light up the lanterns? Young people and young people, what sort of cultivation path did they talk about? If I hadn't stood up today and instead the ordinary disciples of the Chen Academy stood up, wouldn't she have turned the fifth round into a dead end with just a few words? If the disciples of the Chen Academy had demons in their hearts, their cultivation would stop. Who would be responsible for it? You said that I have a malicious heart, are you all clean now? "
Once he said this, the crowd burst into an uproar.
The disciples of the Chen Academy were well aware of the terrifying consequences of having inner demons appear in their cultivation. If their cultivation were to be delayed for several decades, it would be impossible for them to catch up to their peers in the future.
Furthermore, if it was an ordinary person, they would not have anything to do with Baili Ziwei. However, they were cultivators, and their knowledge of the profound things they possessed could be considered to be incomplete. For people like them who both understood and weren't good at it, it was very possible that they would be lured into an eccentric circle by Baili Ziwei with just a few words.
Chen Chang He had stepped forward to help them.
Other than the uproar caused by Chen Chang He's words, Song Kui's eyes also slightly narrowed, because he had not thought of this before.
The Old Ancestor only asked him to bring Baili Ziwei to discuss the Dao between the two clans. However, he had overlooked the fact that Baili Ziwei's opponent was just a bunch of youngsters who only knew a little about cultivation.
If Baili Ziwei's opponent was an honest, ordinary person, he wouldn't know anything. No matter how mysterious Baili Ziwei was, their mental states wouldn't be affected in the slightest. However, regardless of whether it was a disciple of the Chen family or a disciple of the Glory Sect, they all had a vague understanding of the Dao of cultivation and could not be considered proficient in it.
Chen Chang He's words made the cold, introspective judge frown, and did not utter a single word of reprimand.
Chen Ying stood up and spoke to Song Kui: "Elder Song, Chen Chang He is just a newcomer to the Chen School, you do not have to lower yourself to his level. However, as the head of the Chen Academy, I cannot ignore the emotions of my disciples … "What's your clan's way of doing this …"
He did not finish his sentence, his words deliberately leaving a white mark.
Song Kui immediately understood the meaning behind this seemingly gentle but cunning fellow. He said in a deep voice, "The fifth round of the Dao Debate was indeed something that we were inconsiderate of. Since that is the case, the fifth round will not be decided." And in order to express our apologies, although Baili Ziwei won the first four matches, we do not need to participate in this time's Dao Debate. "
Chen Zhen immediately laughed: "How can I be embarrassed?"
Song Kui glanced at Chen Ying, who did not feel the least bit ashamed. He coldly snorted, stood up and walked to the side of Baili Ziwei, saying with his head held high, "Let's end today's discussion here. Since we have won four rounds in a row today, we won't add to your problems here. If there is a chance in the future, the disciples of the Baili family will come back to the Chen family to seek guidance. I just hope that your family will be prepared for the auspicious event then, at that time, there won't be a good ending like today. "
With that, Song Kui left with Baili Ziwei.
However, when Song Kui did not turn his head, Baili Ziwei, who was at the entrance, turned around and glanced at Chen Chang He. Her eyes were cold and clear, and it was unknown what she was thinking about.
"Tsk tsk …"
As the two of them left, looking at Song Kui's back, Chen Pingzhi smacked his lips and said, "Tsk tsk, you truly are worthy of being a cold-faced judge. Although the three powers are secretly arguing, on the surface, they are always amiable. "This fellow, since he's unhappy with us in the bottom of his heart, let's just show it on the surface and leave. Before he leaves, he still has to say something fierce. Are you trying to piss him off?"
Chen Chang He rolled his eyes and replied, "I do dare to love and hate him, but you can only carry him on your back after he has left." Angry? Then why didn't you beat him up? "
Chen Zhen glared fiercely at Chen Chang He and said: "A gentleman does not speak but does not move, you brat do not understand fart."
Chen Chang He curled his lips and said, "I'm afraid you can't beat him, right? He is the second elder of the Baili family, and is also known as the Iron Judgement. Didn't you tell me on the way that he even dares to kill the youngest son of the Baili family's patriarch? "
Chen Zhen almost jumped up from the ground: "Can't I beat him?" I can wring his head off and kick it like a ball! "
Without waiting for Chen Chang He to mock him, the third master jumped down from his chair and said excitedly: "Oh, Little Seal, it seems like your strength has increased greatly in the past few days? Come, come, come, come. I was just worrying about not having anything to do, so I was bored.
The person who wanted to pretend to be a big boss in front of Chen Changyu just a moment ago, Chen Dazhi, immediately pretended to be a grandson and laughed: "I say, Third Master, how am I a match for you? Can you stop messing around with me? Didn't I want to boast in front of the disciples of the Chen Academy just now? "You should know that I am, after all, the head of the Chen Academy. If I lose face in front of the disciples of the Chen Academy, how will I discipline them in the future?"
The mentally deficient Third Master did not care about all this. He grabbed Chen Pingzhi's wrist and said excitedly, "Hey, even if you're not my opponent, I can't just let you have one hand, right? Come, come, come, let's go outside the Chen Academy. I'm so bored that I'm about to go crazy. "
As he said that, the third reverend grabbed onto Chen Ying's wrist and leaped up like he was trying to pull a kite. Chen Ying's face was full of shock, grievance, shame, and grief.
Seeing how Chen Ying was about to leave with tears in his eyes, Chen Changsheng could not help but laugh.
He discovered that it was a very comfortable thing to get along with Chen Jiayi.
This person not only had a refined temperament, but also had a mind of the essence. He wasn't like the ordinary Confucian Scholars who valued rules and regulations. He was humorous when he should, ordinary when he should, reasonable when he should, tough when he should, and soft when he should … Such a person was truly rare.
Chen Chang He also understood why the Chen School would be handed over to an outsider who did not have any Chen bloodline to manage it.
That Old Ancestor of the Chen family was truly wise and insightful. He was on the same level as Old Man Chen Deli, who had been promoted from servant Wu Gang.
As the three reverends pulled Chen Gang out of the door, the disciples from the Chen family school immediately scattered and formed two groups. One group dispersed while the other group rushed towards Chen Chang Mo.
Chen Chang He's gaze did not fall on the surrounding disciples of the Chen School. Instead, he looked at Chen Yu Bao who was not far away.
When Chen Yu Hua reached the door, he turned around and stared at him. Chen Chang He had a reaction, so he turned back to look.
Chen Yu Bao sneered, he placed his right hand on his neck, and slowly swiped his hand, his meaning was obvious.
Chen Chang Zai raised his eyebrows, but did not reveal any angry expression, and instead smiled.
His smile was very calm and also very plain. It was neither ridicule nor ridicule. However, such a calm smile was the greatest ridicule Chen Yu Bao possessed.
Chen Chonglou looked as if he had been ruthlessly slapped, because what Chen Chang He meant was that he did not care about him at all, and naturally would smile as he faced the threat of him slicing his throat.
"Sure."
Chen Yu Bao only said these two words before coldly snorting and stepped out of the door.
Following Chen Yu's departure, the few cultivators who surrounded Chen Changsheng began to discuss curiously.
"What happened to Chen Yu Bao?" Chen Chang He, you know him? "
"Even though he's usually very violent, he shouldn't have any killing intent towards a new disciple, right?"
"I understand, it must be because he lost to Baili Ziwei just now and Chen Chang He won against Baili Zi Wei, that's why he feels ashamed, and that's why he doesn't like Chen Chang He."
"This explanation makes sense. Chen Yu Bao is indeed someone who cares a lot about his face."
"Chen Chang He, as your brother, I will remind you, that guy is vengeful and cruel. Now that he has set his eyes on you, if he doesn't bite off a piece of your meat, he will never let you go, so you have to be prepared and be on guard."
At this moment, the disciples of the Chen Academy gathered around Chen Chang He, all of them obviously wanted to befriend him.
Putting aside the legend of Chen Changyu charging into the Chen Mansion alone with his sword, the moment Chen Changyu entered the school, he had helped to recover his face. Naturally, they had some admiration for him.
As for those Chen Clan disciples who were jealous of Chen Chang He's limelight, they had long since dispersed.
"Right."
At this time, the young woman Chen Baiyi, who had previously tried to introduce herself in the fourth round of the Dao Debate, said, "Just now, I was at the door. When I saw Baili Ziwei leave, I turned my head and glared at you. Obviously, you almost caused her to have an inner demon today. Baili Ziwei is no ordinary person. After all, she is someone who has won four consecutive rounds. You must be careful. "
Chen Chang He, who was standing behind Chen Ji just now, had a clear view of the woman's reaction when he heard her name. Naturally, he knew better than this young woman how extraordinary Baili Ziwei was.
He then changed the topic and joked towards the young lady: "Let's not talk about that for now, Lily ah, if we meet somewhere else, you might want to call me big sister goddess, but in the school now, in terms of seniority, you should call me little uncle."0
Hearing this, the young woman, Chen Baiyuan's face immediately blushed.
On the other hand, the surrounding disciples of the Chen Academy roared with laughter.
"Baihe, although we both pay our respects to the same elder as you, you are of the 'Hundred' generation, and I am of the 'Happy' generation. Are you going to call me 'Young Master'?"
Chen Lefeng, who had previously stood forward to introduce himself, also started to joke around with Chen Baihe.
Chen Lefeng had a steady and honest look on his face, yet he was still able to make a joke out of it.
However, in the world of cultivation, looks were not the main determinant of a person's personality.
As for Chen Baihe, who had been taken advantage of by Chen Liufeng and Chen Chang He, her face became even redder, but she did not feel embarrassed or angry, instead she said: "Chen Liefeng, if one day you can help the whole school regain their dignity like little uncle, and become a hero once again, so what if I call you little grandpa?"
"Ouch!"
The moment the surrounding people heard Chen Baihe actually call him uncle, they all started to cheer him up.
Because most of the students in the Chen Academy were of similar age and came from different branches, they didn't care too much about seniority. Normally, they would be good friends when they were having fun together, but now, when it came to seniority, they felt that it was inexplicably funny.
Chen Baiyuan admitted that Chen Chouyu was indeed her uncle, which made the few of them feel slightly satisfied.
Seeing that these people seemed to be very familiar with each other, Chen Changsheng also understood one thing.
It was not that he possessed great charisma and many people were willing to befriend him right after he arrived at the school. Rather, Chen Baihe and Chen Lefeng were people in the same circle as him. As long as the two of them wanted to befriend him, it would naturally mean that their circle would want to befriend him.
Wherever the circle existed, it was inevitable. Just like how Xie Yu'er and Du Xin were in the same circle, there were many smaller circles within the Chen Academy.
After the Chen seal was taken away by the three great reverends, only Chen Baihe and the others came to form a relationship with him. In the eyes of outsiders, Chen Changgui had already been branded as a member of their circle.
However …
Just like what Chen Baili had said about her delicate and charming 'uncle', she would be forced to enter the circle if she was forced to. Chen Chang Ku thought.
Chen Changsheng thought to himself that he would not stay in the school for long. Rather than making friends with those who did not wish to, it would be a good thing to make friends with these cheerful fellows with a warm face and a cold butt.
Besides, the relationship between the two of them was as calm as water, so Chen Changyu did not think that he would get involved with any of them.
As he was speaking, the bruised Chen Ying covered his face and returned to the lecture hall, waving to Chen Chang Mo.
