Chapter 42 Humanitarian Spirit
"Qin Le, could you explain briefly?"
One student couldn't help but ask a question, and the others also cast expectant glances at him.
They simply couldn't understand the connection between the unity of knowledge and action and turning the pages of a book. Those students who had received guidance from Qin Le hoped that he could, as before, explain the principles clearly and plainly.
Before Qin Le could speak, the teacher on the stage spoke first:
"Let me address this issue."
Upon hearing this, the students all turned to face their teacher.
"The content of this first page," the teacher said, his gaze sweeping across the class, "how many of you truly agree with it? And how many of you can truly put it into practice without forcing yourselves?"
Two questions silenced the students who couldn't turn the page.
In front of Confucian teachers, they couldn't even muster the thought of lying—everyone knows that Confucian scholars are masters at understanding people's hearts.
The silence lasted for a while. Finally, a student looked up at the teacher, his face filled with apology:
"I'm sorry, teacher... I don't agree with the principles in the book, and I can't put them into practice."
Seeing that he readily admitted it, the teacher suddenly laughed:
"Then go find the path that suits you. Staying here is just a waste of time."
"Thank you, teacher." The student bowed respectfully, then got up and left the classroom.
One student led the way, and others followed suit, standing up to apologize and leaving. To these people, the teacher said only one thing:
"Go, go find your own path."
In no time, the classroom was half empty. Those who remained either had already turned the page or wanted to try again.
Qin Le didn't say anything more, picked up his pen, dipped it in ink, and began copying the book—although copying the book didn't really help him, since he had chosen this course, he should finish what he started.
After class, Qin Le walked alone in the corridor, still pondering how to promote communication and cooperation between humans and demons.
Just then, a voice interrupted his thoughts:
"Qin Le".
He turned his head and saw Luo Qiuyue walking towards him with a smile.
"You have some free time?" Qin Le smiled.
While in the celestial realm, Luo Qiuyue said she wanted to ask him for advice on military strategy, but after returning to the mortal world, she seemed to have vanished into thin air. She even registered for university a day later than others, and no one knew what she was busy with.
"Yeah, I just finished." Luo Qiuyue walked up to him. "Are you free now?"
"I'm pretty free," Qin Le said, a thought suddenly occurring to him.
He was originally racking his brains about how to promote exchanges between the two races, but the moment he saw Luo Qiuyue, an idea flashed through his mind—since those demon race guys were unwilling to leave his side, why not take this opportunity to let them familiarize themselves with the Heavenly Realm's combat mode in advance, and at the same time let the human students adapt to cooperating with the demon race.
The key to this lies in the military strategy taught by the Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden.
The two found a bench in the academy and sat down. Qin Le looked at Luo Qiuyue:
"How far have you progressed in your understanding of military strategy?"
A bitter look appeared on Luo Qiuyue's face: "I haven't even scratched the surface."
Qin Le wasn't surprised and continued, "What exactly is it that you can't figure out?"
"What puzzles me most..." Luo Qiuyue paused, "is how could the Dao of War allow a Celestial Immortal to lead ten thousand Earth Immortals to slay a Chaos Beast at the Golden Immortal level?"
She couldn't understand the logic behind it at all. During the actual college entrance exam, they only managed to break through the Chaos Beast's defenses and achieve a battle beyond their level thanks to Qin Le's immortal cultivation.
Without the power of immortality, they wouldn't even be able to break through the defenses.
However, the art of war can achieve the killing of beings across vast realms without relying on the path of immortality—this is completely beyond her comprehension.
Qin Le smiled softly upon hearing this:
"It's very simple. Because their attacks contain a spirit of humanity. It is this 'spirit' that allows them to fight beyond their level."
"Humanitarianism?" A look of doubt flashed in Luo Qiuyue's eyes.
"Hmm..." Qin Le thought for a moment, seemingly feeling that explaining with words wasn't intuitive enough, so he simply took out his phone: "Okay, let me show you something first."
He tapped the screen a few times, and a light screen projected out, showing a majestic and imposing giant dam stretching across the valley, exuding a powerful aura.
"Do you recognize this?" Qin Le asked.
Luo Qiuyue nodded: "I know, it's one of the engineering projects from the mortal era, I think it's called... the Three Gorges Dam?"
"Yes. From our current perspective, this project might not seem like much. But imagine this—if all your cultivation were sealed, and you were asked to build a dam like this, could you do it?"
Qin Le spoke seriously, looking directly at her.
Luo Qiuyue shook her head almost without thinking:
"I can't do it."
She had limited knowledge of the mortal era, and although she was occasionally amazed by the creations of that time, she never delved into them.
After all, times have changed. Instead of wasting time on that, it's better to cultivate yourself a little longer.
Qin Le smiled and said, "I can't do it either. It's simply not something one person can accomplish alone."
As soon as she finished speaking, a thought flashed through Luo Qiuyue's mind, and she suddenly looked up:
"I understand! You mean—our human race itself contains a certain 'Tao.' And the Way of War is about activating and gathering the 'Tao' inherent in each person, which is why we can achieve combat beyond our level?"
"It's not just humans," Qin Le added. "All living beings in the Three Realms possess the Dao."
Luo Qiuyue let out a long sigh of relief.
I see. Just because one person can't do something doesn't mean a group of people can't. The essence of military strategy lies in the orderly and rational allocation of the collective strength, turning the impossible into the possible.
"So what you need to do next," Qin Le looked at her, his tone gentle yet clear, "is to comprehend the spirit of humanity. Only by thoroughly understanding this can one truly grasp the essence of military strategy."
Upon hearing this, Luo Qiuyue gave a bitter smile:
"I'm not like you... how could I possibly have comprehended the power of the Immortal Path at this point?"
Qin Le was speechless for a moment: "Who told you this is the path to immortality?"
"Not Sendoh?"
"Of course not." Qin Le shook his head: "This is just a power that you naturally possess as a 'human,' and it has nothing to do with the path of immortality."
What he didn't say was that while the spirit of humanity doesn't belong to the path of immortality, it is the fundamental power bestowed upon humanity and all living beings by the Heavenly Dao. To comprehend it is not to touch the Heavenly Dao itself, but to grasp the innate power and abilities granted to living beings by the Heavenly Dao, and it will not bring about any backlash.
"Then... could you give me a hint?" Luo Qiuyue asked helplessly, "I understand the principle, but I still have no clue how to do it."
Knowing and doing are two different things.
Qin Le thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled:
"For the first eighteen years of my life, I lived much like an ordinary person—except I was healthier and stronger. Why don't you...give it a try?"
Luo Qiuyue: "..."
Looking at Qin Le's serious expression, she was momentarily speechless.
