The next day.
Bu Feifan woke up early in the morning and was informed by Yang Chan's maid, Lingzhi, along with Liu Yanchang that Yang Chan and Changyue had gone out to visit a friend. Therefore, Mount Hua Villa would be closed for a period of time, and it would be inconvenient to entertain the two of them.
Bu Feifan and Liu Yanchang weren't fools, so they could naturally hear Lingzhi's euphemism.
At that moment, Liu Yanchang seemed to have realized something and his face darkened. He looked like he had a lot on his mind. He didn't even bother to say anything to Lingzhi. Instead, he asked Lingzhi to convey his gratitude to Yang Chan with a stiff expression.
Bu Feifan did not have any other reaction other than being slightly surprised. However, after thanking Lingzhi warmly, he also asked Lingzhi to convey his gratitude to Yang Chan and Changyue.
After that, Bu Feifan and Liu Yanchang left Mount Hua.
However, before they left Mount Hua, Bu Feifan and Liu Yanchang went to the bottom of the South Peak Cliff under Yang Chan's command to pay their respects to their companions who were buried there.
......
In the afternoon.
Sunlight poured down, scorching the earth.
At the foot of Mount Hua.
"Brother Bu, are you really not going to reconsider?”
At this moment, Liu Yanchang had regained his gentlemanly demeanor and looked at Bu Feifan with sincerity.
"Thank you for your kindness, Brother Liu."
Bu Feifan cupped his hands and smiled." Just as Brother Liu said, with my talent in the Confucian Way, it's undoubtedly harder than ascending to the heavens to break through the limit and enter the Jinshi realm…Since that's the case, why don't we take advantage of the limited time and properly enjoy the hundred years of wealth in this boundless mortal world…"
"Thus, I can only thank Brother Liu for your kindness.”
Seeing Bu Feifan's firm attitude, Liu Yanchang sighed and cupped his hands." Since Brother Bu has made up his mind, I won't persuade you any further."”
Then, Liu Yanchang looked at the sky and said,"It's not early anymore…" If Brother Bu is free in the future, you can come to the Emperor's Academy in the capital of Great Song to find me. I will definitely welcome you!”
"If I have the time, I will definitely find Brother Liu and have a good gathering.”
Bu Feifan nodded and cupped his hands.
"Then we'll part ways here!"
Liu Yanchang cupped his hands at Bu Feifan.
"Brother Liu, have a good journey!"
Bu Feifan returned the greeting.
Then, Liu Yanchang turned around and walked away.
"Haha…"
A moment later, Bu Feifan looked at Liu Yanchang's back as he walked further and further away. A trace of mockery appeared in his eyes.
Along the way, Liu Yanchang hinted to Bu Feifan several times that he had a way to get Bu Feifan into the Emperor Academy, but only if Bu Feifan was willing to work for him.
The Emperor's Academy was one of the 72 academies of the Confucian Sect. It only accepted Confucian cultivators who had the qualifications of a Jinshi or above. It was one of the holy lands that Confucian cultivators in the world yearned for.
However, as a transmigrator, Bu Feifan obviously couldn't accept being someone else's subordinate. Therefore, he decisively rejected Liu Yanchang several times.
Of course, Bu Feifan would never agree to go to the Emperor Academy with Liu Yanchang even if he didn't have to pay any price.
If he really wanted to enter the Heaven's Son Academy, he only needed to announce his Confucian aptitude. By then, not only the Heaven's Son Academy, but even the other academies of the 72 Confucian Academies would come to beg him to join them.
After all, there were 12 Confucian stars in his palace. In other words, he had the highest level of Confucian talent, the Supreme Saint.
However, it was also because of the twelve Confucian stars in the Wen Palace that Bu Feifan didn't dare to tell Yang Chan and the others about his Confucian talent. He even deliberately said that his Confucian talent was so low.
Because in this world, there were only ten realms in the cultivation of Confucianism. From weak to strong, they were: Tongsheng, Xiucai, Juren, Jinshi, Hanlin, Grand Scholar, Great Scholar, Half-Saint, Sub-Saint and Confucian Saint.
This was obviously less than the last two realms of the Confucian Dao that the Confucian Dao Paragon Saint system had sent him.
In other words, in this world, the Saint Ancestor and Absolute Saint did not exist, and no one had ever reached these two realms that surpassed the Confucian Saint.
Therefore, Bu Feifan knew that if he were to reveal the truth that he had 12 Confucian stars in the Palace of Culture, he would be killed.
According to the information Bu Feifan had received from Liu Yanchang yesterday, the strongest existence in this world was the Sage of the Heavens.
The cultivation level of this heavenly saint was similar to that of the Confucian Saint, belonging to the same realm.
So, just think about it. Would the saints allow someone who could easily ride on their heads in the future to exist?!
No one in the world was willing to be trampled on, especially a group of saints who stood at the top of the world and had always been riding on the heads of all living beings in the three worlds.
Therefore, the answer was unclear.
Once Bu Feifan's talent in the Way of Confucius was exposed, even if the saints were not sure if he could really surpass them in the future, they would definitely eliminate him in order to prevent future troubles.
This was the reason why Bu Feifan didn't dare to tell Yang Chan and the others about his true talent.
Although this was only Bu Feifan's personal guess and assumption, he had to be cautious for the sake of his life.
The reason Bu Feifan had decided to set his talent as the 'Juren Possessor', was because the' Jinshi 'was the minimum standard for the 72 Academies to recruit disciples.
Therefore, Bu Feifan had to place his talent in the Confucian Way below that of a Jinshi.
This was because if Bu Feifan's talent was set at the level of a scholar or above, then someone from the 72 Academies of Confucianism would come and recruit him into one of them.
If Bu Feifan were to be recruited into any of the 72 Academies of Confucianism, he would have to go through the Heavenly Treasure Mirror, which could reflect the number of Confucian stars in the Confucian Palace. This was to confirm his Confucian talent and prevent others from mixing with him.
In this case, wouldn't Bu Feifan's talent in Confucianism be exposed to everyone?!
Of course, Bu Feifan could also reject the 72 Academies.
However, a Confucian cultivator with no power, influence, or family had rejected a place that thousands of Confucian cultivators in the world could not squeeze into.
This was no different from a beggar refusing to be an emperor.
How could it not arouse suspicion and cause trouble?!
Therefore, in order to avoid suspicion and trouble, Bu Feifan had to place his 'Confucian talent' below the 'Jinshi Possess'.
It was also because Liu Yanchang had mentioned to him yesterday when he was explaining some basic knowledge of this world's Confucianism. Many people who entered the Dao through singing were talented, and their 'Confucian aptitude' was not that bad. Since ancient times, the worst had the potential to become a 'Jinshi'.
If he had positioned his talent in the Confucian Dao at the level of a child or an adult, the difference would be too great. It would make Yang Chan and the others even more incredulous and arouse suspicion.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Bu Feifan finally decided to announce his talent in the Confucian Way to the public as 'Juren Possess'.
"It seems that having too good a talent is also a kind of trouble!!”
After watching Liu Yanchang disappear from his sight, Bu Feifan sighed with a complicated expression.
Then, he found a direction and left Mount Hua.
......
P.S. 1: I originally planned to slowly uncover why Bu Feifan had positioned his talent in Confucianism as the 'Juren Possess', through other plots.
However, it seemed that some of his friends did not understand and asked in the book review section. Therefore, he explained the reason in this chapter in advance. However, because the author has a bit of OCD, she wants to make her logic more reasonable, so she will write in more detail. Please forgive me, my friends, and don't be long-winded!
[P.S. 2: Finally, on account of the author still updating her novel at 1:00 AM, please give me some flowers, review tickets, or monthly votes!]!
