People are in reality, transcending the other side

Chapter 390 Virtue and Harmony (Ninth Update! 10000 Monthly Tickets Requested!)

A little further away, Shen Ruoyu, the principal of Tiannan School, was watching Li Qi through the glass of the venue. At first glance, Li Qi's demeanor seemed unremarkable, but upon closer inspection, a sentence suddenly popped into his mind: "The teachings of the Holy Way are as bright as the sun and moon!"

From Li Qi, he actually sensed a vision of giving. Giving is not a lofty act of charity, but a sincere enlightenment, a virtue cultivated through self-cultivation, something that can only be done after reaching an extremely high level.

Just like many people who teach and educate others, it's all for a few coins. While there's nothing wrong with this in itself—it's normal to earn a living through hard work—it lacks a genuine sense of purpose and therefore feels somewhat incomplete.

"The young people these days are truly terrifying. At such a young age, they have already attained enlightenment and possess the aura of a grandmaster. Now, they have even made a vow to cultivate a heart for teaching and enlightening others. They are only sixteen years old, and they are already like this at such a young age. Could they be another saint?!"

Shen Ruoyu's heart skipped a beat at this moment, and such a thought couldn't help but arise.

To someone who knows nothing about Li Qi, all they would think is that Li Qi has a good demeanor and is a virtuous person. But as a seasoned veteran, he knows the real dangers involved.

According to Buddhist teachings, Li Qi has now attained Mahayana Buddhism. Buddhism is divided into Mahayana and Hinayana. Hinayana Buddhism can only liberate oneself, while Mahayana Buddhism can liberate all sentient beings.

This size, however, has nothing to do with a person's level of life or martial arts realm. Even if one is physically weak, if one has great aspirations and vows, one can still attain the true essence of Mahayana Buddhism and save all people.

Conversely, even if one attains the state of Buddhahood, that is, becomes a great sage, if one does not generate aspirations and have a heart to universally save others, then one is only a Buddha in Hinayana Buddhism and does not enter Mahayana Buddhism!
This is why Shen Ruoyu was so surprised at this moment.

Because this thing has little to do with one's martial arts level. In fact, sometimes, high martial arts skills can be an obstacle. The stronger one is, the less one regards oneself as a human being, thinking that one is superior, and the less one can awaken or have an epiphany.

Meanwhile, inside the stadium, Cheng Weiwei was also looking at Li Qi, but she felt that Li Qi had changed more and more. Just standing there quietly now gave her a feeling of growing distance.

That kind of distance is like people on earth looking at gods and Buddhas in the sky. Even if they leap up with all their might, they can't touch the clouds beneath the gods and Buddhas. There are dimensions between them.

"It hasn't been that long..."

"The book says that the transformation between dragon and snake is only a momentary thing. I was confused about this before, but now I understand..."

"Ugh!"

"Indeed, it only lasts for a fleeting moment!"

Cheng Weiwei had this idea.

"The same rules apply as last time: everyone attack freely without holding back!"

Seeing that everyone around him was ready, Li Qi said this.

"Okay, let's begin!"

Then, his tone suddenly rose, carrying an inexplicable air of authority that subconsciously inspired people to obey and dare not disobey.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Immediately afterwards, almost simultaneously, more than twenty core members of the Tiannan Military Striking Society who had already arrived at the border subconsciously drew their swords.

In an instant, the arena was filled with the flashing of swords and the clash of blades. Outside the arena, a group of fourth-grade students, led by their teacher, who had come to Tiannan for a study tour, widened their eyes in surprise. They had not expected to witness such a thrilling event so soon after arriving.

In fact, this is not a coincidence. In Tiannan, or many places in Kyushu, there is a tradition of sending lower-grade students to study at good schools for higher grades. This is to broaden their horizons and, even if there are only a few schools, to inspire them to want to get into those schools, it is still a gain. It is a way to artificially stimulate their enthusiasm for learning.

At the same time, in this day and age, martial arts is something that cannot be avoided. Therefore, all study tours are held in the martial arts class of the martial arts club so that younger students can experience the intense atmosphere there.

It's just that Li Qi never made a vow before, so he wouldn't be able to see the current situation.

boom!
Of the more than twenty people who had entered the realm, Shen Yue was undoubtedly the fastest. With her martial arts skills approaching the peak of the realm and her special physique, she could stir up a storm with a single move, and the air was filled with a bloody and murderous aura.

In an instant, many people felt that a demon had descended upon the world and was about to wash the earth in blood.

boom!
However, she charged forward quickly, but was also repelled just as fast. Many people didn't even see Li Qi's sword swing before Shen Yue was already flying far away. Although her backward flight was swift, it wasn't explosive; instead, it gave off a gentle and graceful feeling.

She then came to a steady stop, and surprisingly closed her eyes to begin to feel the spiritual gains from the collision with the blade.

At the same time, more and more swords and shadows approached Li Qi, but without exception, they were all sent flying upon contact. However, no one was injured or even fell down. Everyone stood firmly and then closed their eyes to ponder and reflect.

Three seconds later, the scene returned to silence. Li Qi had already sheathed his sword, and everyone else in the scene, except for him, had their eyes closed and had all gained something.

This is Li Qi's method of instructing others in martial arts. No amount of words can compare to a single, decisive blow. Of course, this method is not something that ordinary people can use. Only Li Qi, whose martial arts skills have been constantly improving and whose vision has been constantly broadening, has created a unified framework to govern everything. His own mind and spirit are also extraordinary. Only in this way can he break through the opponent's weak points in the operation of their will in an instant and enlighten them.

Even Li Changqing didn't have this kind of skill. In fact, Li Qi felt that even a Great Master might not be able to achieve this level if his mind and spirit hadn't reached the One Yuan realm.

At this moment, not only was the venue silent, but the lower-grade students studying outside were also completely silent, all their eyes fixed on Li Qi, who stood proudly in the center.

They didn't know that this was a transmission of teachings and enlightenment; they only felt that with a knife in hand, they were invincible, and that this was incredibly powerful.

At that moment, sunlight streamed through the dome, illuminating half of Li Qi's profile. Countless children felt that the person in the room had become light, like a god or hero from a story, leaving an incredibly deep impression on them!

In fact, many children know Li Qi, but their impression of him has never been as profound as it has been at this moment.

As for Li Qi, he paid no attention to the gazes around him at this moment, and was immersed in the self-reflection of his own mind. This kind of teaching was also an invisible tempering for him. At this moment, the fire in his heart had only just begun to burn, and he was still a long way from truly being as virtuous as the sun and moon in the teachings of the Holy Way.

But for many things, the hardest part is actually going from zero to one. Once you have a start, the rest is just a process of accumulation and then qualitative change...
