Peerless Taoist

The last two days were talking about the Mountain and Sea Scripture and the way to become an official.    

Ever since the scene of ten thousand people ascending to the heavens was revealed, the eyes of the entire Imperial Capital were all focused on this place.    

Some of the experts who disdained to listen to Lu Yu's lecture also rushed over. In the end, the number of people in the valley increased. Looking around, they were actually densely packed with people who were listening to the lecture.    

Among them was the State Supervising Wine, Fang Mingzhe.    

He gathered together with the group of ministers and Confucians to discuss with Lu Yu, but when the heavenly thunder descended, under the urging of curiosity, they still rushed over to take a look.    

However, when they heard Lu Yu's voice, they immediately became intoxicated and couldn't extricate themselves from it.    

They were immersed in the world of the Mountain and Sea Scripture.    

Many people were listening attentively. Lu Yu was describing a mysterious world to them.    

A mysterious voice echoed out in everyone's ears. For a moment, everyone felt as if they were deep within the strange and variegated Mountain and Sea Realm. Numerous ancient and savage lands appeared in front of them, and numerous strange beasts and deities could be seen with the naked eye.    

Many people closed their eyes to listen for a day. They heard the sun set during the day, and knew that Lu Yu had come to a stop. It was only then that they came to their senses from that mysterious and unfathomable matter.    

Fang Mingzhe carefully thought back to what Lu Yu had said. He felt as if many scenes had appeared in his mind. Even the most knowledgeable of people had never been able to recognize what those scenes were.    

"Learning is endless. We people always feel that we know everything, but we know nothing about the Devil Land outside the Two Realm Mountain."    

"At first, we always thought that other than the ancient demon, there were some evil things on the Demonic Land. But we didn't expect that there were words and languages there. There were gods and Demonic Beast. They were the same as us, they were all part of a civilization. "    

" It can be said that this scripture alone is enough to fill the void in the Demon Land! "    

"The way Lu Yu talked about officials is also quite novel. Officials pay attention to ability, while officials win over officials. This is a new perspective."    

"Engineering, food, culture, economy... What is administrative management? What kind of course is this? We, the National Supervising Department, have never taught these things before!"    

A Great Confucian smiled bitterly and said, "We are the number one academy in Great Yu, but it's a pity that we only know that we are looking at the sky from the bottom of a well after seeing you today."    

Fang Mingzhe looked at the densely packed instructors and students of Jade Cauldron Academy, who were standing in the open space, and suddenly felt a sense of trance.    

"Do you see the gazes of those people?"    

Fang Mingzhe let out a long sigh. "I'm afraid these people have long regarded His Majesty as a god. Their loyalty to His Majesty is probably higher than the Imperial Court."    

The Confucianist was puzzled. "Since these people are subjects, why can't they be loyal to His Majesty?"    

"Officials can dissuade and advise. When necessary, they can also correct the king's mistakes."    

Fang Mingzhe shook his head and said, "But these people are different. Regardless of right or wrong, they only do things according to His Majesty's wishes. Even if the king is wrong, they will still carry out it without hesitation. "    

" Furthermore, the aura that these people are emitting makes even me shudder. I'm afraid that the sudden appearance of the sea of lightning just now is related to them as well!"    

"It is likely that we are already unable to catch up to the footsteps of this Emperor..."    

...    

Lu Yu finished his speech.    

A few more days passed.    

Thirty thousand disciples left Yu Ding Academy, and with the identity of "selecting officers," they entered the basic yamen of Great Yu and began their tough-training.
