though he couldn’t understand it, if it were a martial arts manual before him, he might have been more interested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there were people in the room!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Wen, Dou Gu, and others treated the text as if they wished to enshrine it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could only feel: mysterious, yet awe-inspiring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yu wondered: could his elder brother have read not Daoist texts on Mount Zhongnan, but books on statecraft?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ke’s gaze slowly swept the room; outside the window, the sky was gradually turning pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew his personal simulation was nearing its end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hoped his direct participation this time had not been in vain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his gaze once more toward the crowd in the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And behold!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Jinyu, that woman resembling a “Kunxu Reba,” stared intently at the passages describing alliances among several states, her eyes filled with disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the brilliance and audacity of these strategies far exceeded her expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Wen and Dou Gu meticulously examined each line of the decree; their expressions shifted as they read—from initial calmness to shock, then to deep contemplation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Prince Zhou Cheng appeared even more focused, copying each line beside him, his pen gripped tightly as he made annotations on the paper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever he encountered a passage that moved him, he would pause, a smile lighting his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ke shook his head, a thought rising in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I need only make a slight move, and I’ve already reached the limit of this world!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five thousand years of vibrant transformation—these were not written with thunder and lightning, but by the hands of ancient sages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ke turned his gaze to Lu Yu, who had already drifted far beyond the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yu felt his brother’s gaze and “put on an act,” picking up a sheet of paper, swaying his head as he pretended to read, muttering praise:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother, these few points you wrote are truly excellent!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ke couldn’t help but laugh at his younger brother’s innocent, carefree demeanor, warmth rising in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This brother of his—whether meeting for the first time during the simulation in the northern camp,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>or standing now in the Taihe Hall—seemed unchanged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ke smiled faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still a pure heart!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xuedian, the Lu Family Army’s supply officer, wore the most expressive expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One moment he glanced at the Shao Bao, the next at the words on the paper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face showed utter disbelief!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One or two decrees were understandable, but thousands upon thousands written in a single night, all at once?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xuedian felt he had wasted his years studying the sages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had once been from a great northern clan, passing the imperial examination as top scholar before turning twenty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after the Northern Wind’s Tuoba Shu ascended the throne, his family’s support for the “Second Prince” led to the extermination of his entire clan; he alone escaped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xuedian’s mind brimmed with curiosity and confusion; he finally couldn’t hold back and asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shao Bao, are all these exquisitely brilliant decrees entirely your own conception?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had always deeply admired the Shao Bao’s military genius; every battle the Lu Family Army fought—winning against greater odds—proved the Shao Bao’s extraordinary strategic vision and command.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the battlefield, no one in the world could match him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Governing a state differed from waging war; Li Xuedian could not imagine the Shao Bao surpassing these well-read advisors in statecraft.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then what use were they?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ke, upon hearing this, gently shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Li Xuedian inwardly nodded, thinking this was only reasonable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, if someone truly possessed such foresight alone, it would be like a celestial immortal descending—too incredible to believe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xuedian pressed further:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then, Shao Bao, where did these decrees come from?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He secretly speculated that these statecraft strategies might have been the collective work of ancient sages or wise men, somehow acquired by the Shao Bao by chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as he spoke:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Cheng leaned in, listening intently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dou Gu lifted his paper, awaiting Lu Chen’s answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Wen listened with rapt attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All eyes turned to you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ke, hearing this, smiled faintly and said slowly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Gained from wandering the Immortal Realm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Immortal Realm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xuedian frowned, puzzled; he knew the Shao Bao was steady and never spoke recklessly, yet “Immortal Realm” sounded too ethereal, deepening his confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others murmured softly: “Gained from the Immortal Realm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ke continued calmly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That realm is the Immortal Realm!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I saw people living in peace and contentment, the elderly cared for, the young nurtured, the virtuous chosen, trust upheld, harmony cultivated—doors left unlocked.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then, within that Immortal Realm, I conversed with celestial sages for five thousand years.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xuedian grew even more confused; in today’s warring states, where could such a paradise exist?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not even in ancient times, nor in the future—likely impossible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps only in dreams.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Jin, listening nearby, chuckled softly, her laugh clear and pleasant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Only immortals can reach the Immortal Realm!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then the Shao Bao is no less than a celestial immortal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as she spoke:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Xuedian suddenly understood: there was no “Immortal Realm”—the Shao Bao was merely being modest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yu merely smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ke paid no mind; he looked around the Taihe Hall, where lantern light illuminated every face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The palace maids, though yawning constantly, still forced themselves to stay alert, not daring to slack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brilliantly lit Taihe Hall, its ceiling adorned with lifelike golden dragon heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was this truly a simulation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could ponder further!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He felt the [Kunxu Cauldron] within his mind tremble slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if an invisible force was pulling him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Personal Participation Time Ended.]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An indescribable force enveloped him; the world spun wildly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly opening his eyes, he found himself back in his familiar quarters, a complex emotion rising within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He moved his hands, astonished to find his body not exhausted as expected, but unusually light—as if the entire experience had been a dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It felt as if he had merely “subbed in.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly looked at the desk before him!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he had chosen [Personal Participation], Yu Ke had spilled the water from his cup onto the desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now he looked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The water had only just begun to spread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It slowly dispersed, droplets falling to the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ke withdrew his gaze, deep in thought: one night of [Personal Participation].\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a time differential.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In reality, only an instant had passed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truly unbelievable!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This simulation’s duration was clearly much longer than the first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems “A Ding” has been quietly growing stronger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yu Ke gazed out the window;
