Chapter 51 Education

[In the 365th year of the Demon Calendar, the 7th cycle of the 3rd period, you, with your True Immortal cultivation, have received the sacred mandate from Nuwa to officially assume the position of Great Chief of the Human Race.]

[Upon assuming your post, you immediately face the challenge of managing the human race. These primitive savages have absolutely no manners; you must begin compulsory education at once.]

However, you also face the problem of your low cultivation level...

[Back then, in order to catch up with the important historical moment of Nuwa creating humans, you stayed at home doing nothing. But because you were so outstanding, your father finally agreed to let you go out to study.]

[While it might be fun to just sit around doing nothing, your cultivation level has genuinely remained stuck at the first realm of immortality, "True Immortal." Becoming the Great Chieftain of the Human Race means facing endless troubles. You must become stronger; True Immortal is clearly too weak.]

Thus, a dilemma arises before you: should you cultivate immortality first, or govern the human race first?

Faced with this question, what would you choose?

[A: Cultivate immortality first, cultivation level is paramount! B: Govern first, humanity is fundamental!]

"What kind of question is that?"

Zhao Si's lips twitched:

"Can't we cultivate immortality and govern at the same time?"

If you don't even have this much time management skill, how can you be a time assassin?

"I don't get to choose such a life-or-death matter as self-destruction, but I'm the one who has to do these trivial things..."

After a brief moment of criticism, Zhao Si quickly realized what was going on:

"Wait... something doesn't seem right."

Cultivating immortality while governing sounds like a good idea, but in reality, Jin Bing has no way to do both at this stage.

For Jin Bing, who was a peak Grand Luo Golden Immortal in his previous life, rebuilding his cultivation was incredibly easy!

But the question is, what level of repair is sufficient?

Celestial Immortal? Mysterious Immortal? Great Luo Immortal?

The reality is, even if you cultivate to the level of a Quasi-Saint, it's useless. The Witch Clan had a total of twelve Quasi-Saints, but in the Witch-Demon War, they only managed to fight to the death with the brothers Di Jun and Tai Yi.

Is it possible for Jin Bing to become a Quasi-Saint in a short period of time?

Obviously not.

Moreover, once the Heavenly Court starts targeting the human race as it did in the previous two simulations, even if Jin Bing is at the peak of the Quasi-Saint realm, he won't be able to withstand it!

Therefore, a very ridiculous conclusion emerges:

"Instead of pointlessly cultivating immortality and wasting my time and energy, I should devote myself wholeheartedly to the governance of the human race. The overall strength of the human race is far more important than my personal cultivation improvement..."

Good heavens, the theory that cultivating immortality is useless!

Having arrived at this counterintuitive conclusion, Zhao thought for a moment, and although it seemed absurd, he still decided to act decisively:

"Since we can restart it, let's give it a try!"

"B!"

[You chose option B, address the problem first!]

Having made up your mind, you resolutely decided to abandon your personal cultivation career and instead devote yourself wholeheartedly to the boundless cause of governing the human race.

[But you also felt that being completely defenseless was unacceptable, so you took advantage of the advanced clone technique bestowed upon you by your master, the Sage Taiqing, and casually gathered three rare and precious materials on Shouyang Mountain, a place brimming with treasures. After a rough refinement, three ordinary-looking avatars were created.]

[The avatars, created using advanced clone techniques, deeply understand the Dao Ancestor's "severing of the three corpses," thus their cultivation advancement is not limited by the original body. Under your command, the three avatars, representing the ages of "old," "middle," and "young," have focused on cultivating in Shouyang Mountain. With your experience as a peak Great Luo Golden Immortal, their progress is rapid...]

Meanwhile, your true form is focused on the education of human civilization at the foot of Shouyang Mountain.

With your past life's practical experience, you are quite adept at educating humans who are still in a savage state.

[Language, writing, morality, law... and so on, under your patient guidance, the eyes of thousands of curious children gradually filled with awe. In their hearts, which were like blank sheets of paper, you seemed to be a divine being sent down from heaven, glorious and great!]

Nuwa watched with great interest as you, her "teachers," instructed her children. Although the Heavenly Court had always had a policy of literacy education for backward races, most of the celestial officials and chieftains sent down to the capital viewed this work as exile, spending their days lamenting and feeling pessimistic about their future in officialdom.

With such a negative mindset, the Heavenly Official Chieftain was beyond educating the people; it would be considered a good person if he didn't prey on them...

[But you are different. You always personally teach the human race, overcoming all difficulties. You treat the ignorant savages with a balance of kindness and strictness, neither indulging them nor resorting to beatings and scoldings. You are truly an excellent teacher and friend.]

Nuwa was very curious: What exactly are you after?

[Merit? For the sake of merit, it doesn't have to go this far. After all, accumulating merit is meant to facilitate cultivation, but you're not even cultivating immortality, focusing solely on teaching and edifying. For a sage's disciple who is devoted to accumulating merit, this is putting the cart before the horse.]

Considering your mysterious origins, even with a thousand doubts, Nuwa could only conclude that you genuinely favored this race… However, she was wrong.

[You don't favor any particular race. The reason you've focused on the human race is because you know their destined tragedy... If they become strong, they will harm the demon race; if they become weak, they will be harmed by the demon race.]

You are also conflicted. What should you choose? Should you teach humans how to cultivate immortality? You have no answer in your heart...

Faced with this inner conflict, you decide to (?). Please fill in your answer freely!

"Hey! You've finally run out of ideas!"

Upon seeing Jin Bing ask for help again, Zhao Si couldn't help but chuckle and say, "You've got some backbone, kid!"

I thought you had a solution, but it turns out you're just like someone dancing on an egg...

"Unless one cannot touch the essence of the class contradiction of the Heavenly Way, all means are nothing more than reformists and patch-up artists."

But when it comes to the specifics of how to paste a flower, there's a lot to say about that.

After making a couple of comments about Jin Bing, Zhao Si couldn't help but start planning:

"On the question of whether or not to teach humans how to cultivate immortality, the only option is yes!"

For a race destined to be the protagonist, it is impossible to "de-cultivate immortality." The inability to cultivate immortality means that they are not worthy of the name, and it also means that when Di Jun or the disciples of the sages target them, the human race can only be attacked and oppressed unilaterally.

Too weak, without strength, that won't do!

Conversely, a strong and prosperous human race inevitably leads to extremes and a fundamental contradiction that cannot be reconciled...

"Then why not try having humans, as the stronger race, voluntarily treat all living beings as equals?"

A very bold idea suddenly popped into Zhao Si's mind, and it became unstoppable:

"Humans are destined to be the protagonists. Whether in terms of the speed and quality of their reproduction or their suitability for cultivating immortality, they far surpass ordinary demons. This is both a disadvantage and an advantage."

"This means that as long as the collective consciousness of the human race can spontaneously reject arrogance and, under conscious control, gain the recognition and acceptance of the vast majority of the demon race, then..."

Zhao Si's eyes lit up:

"The best way is to start teaching them from a blank slate stage, using the highest ideals and beliefs to help them all resist their lofty instinctive desires..."

No matter how idealistic it might be, Zhao Si decided to give it a try!

Who cares? If I fail, I can just start over. But if I succeed...

"Let's do it!"

Zhao Si became excited:

"Let Jin Bing tell the human race directly that they are indeed born superior beings, but compared to the vast majority of all living beings, their strength is like a leaf in the sea. If they become enemies, they will be completely overthrown."

"So what if it's the will of Heaven? You say I'm high and mighty, but I insist on being equal with all living beings. I will resolutely oppose the chaotic fate of Heaven. My destiny is in my own hands, not in the hands of Heaven."
