Chapter 23: Father doesn't know how much money to collect

What's even more surprising is,

This little kid can actually use Magnanimous Righteous Qi to perform techniques.

You know, everyone else relies on spiritual energy to drive their spells,

while he does the opposite, using Magnanimous Righteous Qi as the source of his spellcasting.

Such a unique method is simply unheard of,

How could one not find it astonishing!

Although everyone knows that the Confucian way can make use of Magnanimous Righteous Qi to have some effect,

but it usually only serves as an auxiliary function, merely to boost one's aura.

But the fact before us now is,

this Magnanimous Righteous Qi has actually become the main source of combat power,

which is truly shocking and outrageous!

Only see Ye Xiuxiu gently raise her jade hand,

elegantly taking back the technique she had just performed.

She wore a smile, her gaze sweeping over everyone present, and slowly said:

"Now you should all understand how powerful the force contained in the correct version of the sage's words is,"

She paused, then added: "Those are the words spoken by the sage himself—how could the sage leave behind something useless?"

"If you study the correct sage's words with dedication, you will surely become as strong as I am!"

After Ye Xiuxiu's demonstration,

the forty or so people originally gathered here now all have shining eyes, tightly fixed on Ye Xiuxiu, their faces full of longing and envy.

Their deep-seated desire to learn the correct sage's words was instantly ignited,

they simply couldn't wait to start delving into its mysteries right away.

Not only do these kids want to learn, but even these parents want to follow Ye Xiuxiu in studying.

Compared to He Pingsheng, he is already Ye Xiuxiu's favored disciple.

At this moment, Ye Xiuxiu suddenly raised her voice and asked:

"Now, do you still doubt my abilities? Do you submit or not?"

Before her voice even faded,

the small classroom echoed with a unified, deafening response: "Submit!"

This time everyone almost shouted in unison, their tone firm and resolute.

Though it still had a somewhat childish, milky tone.

【Cumulative: Made fifteen childhood playmates submit to you.】

【Cumulative: Made sixteen childhood playmates submit to you.】

【Cumulative: Made seventeen childhood playmates submit to you: Reward talent, Double Casting.】

【Cumulative: Made eighteen childhood playmates submit to you.】

【...】

【Cumulative: Made fifty childhood playmates submit to you.】

【Overcompleted the Counterattack Mission!】

【Finding childhood playmates is extremely difficult; although we were together as kids, we went our separate ways when we grew up, and some even died young. Surely making fifty childhood playmates submit to you must have involved great hardship.】

【This shows your desire to counterattack is extremely strong!】

【Overachievement reward: Top-tier Comprehension.】

Just then,

system messages popped up like a tide, one after another,

the screen flashed with various prompts and notifications.

Obviously, that stunning move just now completely intimidated this group of kids,

they were all stunned, their faces filled with shock.

Not only that,

this performance actually brought an unexpected surprise!

There are rewards for overcompleting the mission.

Top-tier Comprehension,

How important comprehension is in cultivation needs no further explanation,

if it weren't for my higher comprehension,

how could I have achieved what I have today?

Now, having gained top-tier comprehension,

the future is simply limitless!

The effect of this top-tier comprehension,

is estimated to rank among the top three of all the rewards I've received so far.

With great anticipation and curiosity,

Ye Xiuxiu's gaze turned to her newly acquired third talent.

Although she knows nothing yet about the specific effects of this talent,

but just seeing its name, "Double Casting,"

makes her heart race,

【Dual Casting: When releasing a spell, there is a ten percent chance to cast an additional spell.】

The talent's description was simple and plain,

but Ye Xiuxiu felt it was quite extraordinary.

Imagine—in the heat of battle, just when the enemy thinks they have dodged a round of spell attacks,

they suddenly suffer a second strike of the same power.

This kind of sudden turn of events would surely catch the opponent off guard,

thereby turning the tide of battle in one fell swoop.

Thinking of this, Ye Xiuxiu could not help but feel secretly delighted.

From now on, whenever she summoned her own characters to attack,

she might just trigger this Dual Casting talent effect,

summoning double Ye Xiuxiu characters to crush the enemy.

A thought suddenly flashed through her mind,

and she could not help muttering in a low voice: "Could it be that I'm really going to walk the path of the Confucian Way in the future?"

In truth, regarding which path of cultivation she should ultimately choose,

Ye Xiuxiu currently had no clear idea.

But she was not particularly fond of the Confucian Way—

the Confucian Way was not very elegant.

After all, she would be lugging around a brick all day.

Better to get a red-tasseled spear to carry on her back,

cutting a dashing figure.

Best of all would be riding a big white horse on top of that.

The task was complete,

and Ye Xiuxiu did not think about leaving right away.

Instead, she began earnestly correcting the children present on their mistaken Words of the Saints.

These children would all become her network of connections in the future.

They might be little brats now, but who knew—they could all become somebodies someday.

Ye Qingping watched this scene, not knowing whether to laugh or cry,

not knowing what to say.

You taught Chen Gong Dong one person a load of twisted logic, and fooled your teacher in the process—I can let that slide,

but you've taught so many others the same twisted logic.

If they all come looking for me one by one,

you'll put your old man in a very difficult spot.

I wouldn't know how much money to charge them.

Ye Xiuxiu pondered to herself:

If she could hold a red-tasseled spear and carry it imposingly on her back,

she would surely look dashing and spirited!

And if she also had a tall, snow-white steed to ride,

that would be absolutely perfect!

After the task was satisfactorily completed,

Ye Xiuxiu did not simply abandon everyone and leave.

Instead, she stayed behind and began meticulously and attentively correcting the children's mistaken Words of the Saints.

These innocent little children might all become important connections for her in the future!

Though they were still just a bunch of ignorant little brats right now,

who could say that on some day in the future,

they wouldn't transform into remarkable figures of great renown?

Ye Qingping stood to the side, watching the scene before him,

truly feeling both exasperated and amused,

and for a moment did not know how to even begin speaking.

He thought to himself:

You taught Chen Gong Dong alone those twisted and fallacious reasoning, and even fooled your teacher in the process—

for that matter, I can still turn a blind eye and let it go without holding it against you.

But now, you are so brazenly feeding so many children such a great quantity of twisted logic and fallacies.

What if one day they all come knocking on the door?

What am I, as a father, supposed to do?

When the time comes, I truly wouldn't know how to determine the right amount of lecture fees to charge them!
