Chapter 616: The Old Woman's Foot Binding Cloth
"Tsk!"
Chu Feng, seeing Han Sheng droning on endlessly, simply couldn't stand it anymore. He couldn't help but let out a scoff.
At this moment, the Chuan Gong Hall was very quiet, everyone was listening to Han Sheng's grandiose speech.
The scoffing sound from Chu Feng was also exceptionally clear.
It was immediately heard by Han Sheng.
"Who?"
In the ranks of the many Heavenly Prides of the Inner Sect, Han Sheng held a very high status. That someone dared to mock him ignited a raging fury that surged towards the Dou Residence.
He turned his head fiercely, scanning towards the back.
He immediately and accurately locked onto Chu Feng who had just scoffed.
It must be said, Han Sheng's ability to discern position by sound was indeed quite remarkable.
"Chu Feng, what were you laughing at just now?" Han Sheng's expression looked as if he was about to devour someone, his gaze chillingly cold and terrifying.
"Nothing much, just felt that Brother Han Sheng was speaking wonderfully..." Chu Feng deliberately elongated his tone. Upon hearing Chu Feng's apparent praise, Han Sheng's face slightly relaxed. "Wonderful like an old woman's foot binding cloth, stinky and long."
Snort—!
Ha-ha...
The entire place suddenly burst into laughter. Chu Feng had spoken what many wanted to say but did not dare to.
"You really dare to say anything!" Dongxue quietly gave Chu Feng a thumbs up. She was originally a very proud beauty, with a cultivation far higher than Chu Feng's. Towards other male disciples, she always maintained a cold demeanor.
Initially, she treated Chu Feng the same way.
But as they slowly interacted, she grew more and more appreciative of Chu Feng. Their relationship became much closer.
"You, a lowly Outer Disciple, a mere crawling creature, dare to mock this young master's answer, saying it's like an old woman's foot binding cloth! Since you are so capable, why don't you answer Elder Mu's question?"
"I want to see how brilliant you are!" Han Sheng roared fiercely.
"Suffering, for most people, is entirely a form of repression and torment. But for some who have comprehended the true nature of suffering, it is merely a state, a transcendence."
Chu Feng casually shared his understanding.
"Suffering is a state, a transcendence! What a profound answer!" Dongxue's beautiful eyes couldn't help but light up, twinkling with a bright spark. They were like a Black Gemstone.
They say a beauty is like a piece of art, and it really is so.
Dongxue's eyes were even more exquisite and captivating than a piece of art.
"So the true purpose of suffering is to comprehend, to transcend mentally!" Many Inner Sect Disciples, each far surpassing Chu Feng in strength and status, listened to Chu Feng's answer as if it was divine enlightenment, suddenly gaining a bit of insight.
Had they not heard it with their own ears and seen it with their own eyes, they would hardly believe that such profound cultivation theory could come from an Outer Disciple.
Looks can be deceiving, the depth of the sea unfathomable.
One by one, they put away their contempt, and the way they looked at Chu Feng was tinged with more respect.
Chu Feng, with his own strength, had earned the respect of these Heavenly Prides.
"Arghh, I'm so mad, that Waste has stolen the spotlight again!" Qin Shan was so frustrated that he wanted to spit blood.
Understanding cultivation techniques was Qin Shan's weak spot.
He hardly had any presence in this Chuan Gong Hall, belonging to the bottom tier.
Although possessing Four-star Sword God cultivation, and having spent many years in the Inner Sect, he is still only able to sit on a reed mat at the back and listen to lectures.
Watching Chu Feng drawing such significant attention, Qin Shan was crazily jealous. He could only watch helplessly as Chu Feng continually surpassed him.
Chu Feng, with his excellent performance, was silently delivering slap after slap to Qin Shan's face.
In front of everyone, Qin Shan called Chu Feng waste on the left and garbage on the right. Now, Chu Feng was showing everyone with his actions that Qin Shan was not even as good as this 'garbage'.
The one with the ugliest expression had to be Han Sheng.
At this moment, Han Sheng's handsome face became spectacularly contorted. It was as if he had eaten a large turd freshly excreted by Chu Feng.
Moreover, it was as if Han Sheng himself had opened his mouth wanting to eat it.
Although Elder Mu Cang had not yet made a judgment, who was superior and who was inferior was already very clear.
Compared to Chu Feng's sharp and incisive response, Han Sheng's long speech had indeed become like an old woman's foot-binding cloth.
"Damn it, don't be smug. You won this round by fluke, but next time, this young master will definitely regain his face. I will absolutely crush you," Han Sheng said through gritted teeth, vowing secretly.
Elder Mu Cang, sitting high above on the Lotus Platform, observed Chu Feng with shock and delight.
Basically, Elder Mu Cang recognized all the disciples eligible to enter the Chuan Gong Hall for lectures. Yet, Chu Feng was a new face.
And particularly young.
Like a piece of uncarved jade, possessing infinite sculpting potential.
"You're called Chu Feng?" Elder Mu Cang couldn't believe that this young man before him had such a profound understanding of suffering.
It seemed as if it wasn't the mindset of a young man, but that of a monk who had practiced for many years in a temple, capable of deep insights.
"Exactly, that is my name!" Chu Feng, in front of the instructor, tucked away his sharpness and wild demeanor. He behaved very humbly and respectfully.
"Chu Feng, your answer just now was extremely exquisite! Next time you come to a lecture, you may sit on a Yellow Silk Cushion!" Elder Mu Cang rarely praised people. Such high praise as he was giving now was extremely rare.
It seems that only Miss Si Huang had ever received such high praise from Elder Mu Cang!
According to the rules of the Chuan Gong Hall, if a disciple is praised by the instructor when answering a question, they are eligible to sit on the middle Yellow Silk Cushion.
Chu Feng really was incredible, merely by answering the first question, he had obtained the privilege Qin Shan had yearned for many years.
This also meant that Chu Feng had become one of the elite among the more than a thousand Heavenly Pride disciples in the Chuan Gong Hall.
As for those sitting on the cushions, they belonged to the most top-notch disciples.
Each of them had a deep understanding of cultivation techniques and the principles of cultivation.
"Let's start discussing the cultivation techniques, focusing on some of the most common issues encountered. Last time we had discussed up to the second point, this time let's continue with the third..." Elder Mu Cang started his simple and profound explanation.
When giving examples, he used the Dragon Elephant Skill.
This was also the cultivation technique that most of the disciples present were practicing.
All laws in the world are interconnected.
Although Chu Feng was cultivating the Mixed Element Unlimited Skill, he could still draw lessons, reflect, and then apply those insights to his own cultivation technique.
The content explained by Elder Mu Cang was very useful.
After listening, Chu Feng was inspired and absorbed many useful experiences, many of which related to common issues encountered in cultivation.
It seemed that the teaching lectures at the Chuan Gong Hall were indeed very beneficial. In the future, on the first and fifteenth of every month, if he had time, he should make an effort to come and listen.
Only at this moment did Chu Feng truly appreciate the tremendous benefits that being part of a Great Sect could bring.
