Achieving the Dao from the Hundred Schools of Thought

Zhuang Weiyang stood stiff as a scarecrow, letting her niece Bo Pi lead her into the banquet.

Among the crowd, only next to Zhang Zezhong was there a small wooden table that was still available.

Bo Pi's niece eagerly led Zhuang Weiyang to sit down, poured her wine, and brought the wine bowl to her lips.

"Brother Weiyang, you said you were thirsty earlier, why aren't you drinking?"

"Brother, do you regret choosing Lan'er? Then Lan'er will go and bring those two vixens back to you~"

Lan'er's coquettishness made Zhuang Weiyang feel uneasy.

This can't go on!

This drink is something I can't refuse, whether I drink it or not.

Get your brain working!

Zhuang Weiyang pretended to be calm, took the wine glass with trembling hands, smelled it, and frowned.

"Peach blossoms falling?"

"Lan'er, please don't be offended. I dislike peach blossoms falling the most; I cough whenever I drink this wine."

As she spoke, Zhuang Weiyang repeatedly winked at Zhang Zezhong.

Zhang Zezhong quickly understood and echoed Zhuang Weiyang:

"Absolutely, absolutely. Not to mention Lan'er, even if your peach blossoms fall, Second Young Master Zhuang Weiyang will not drink them either."

"If you don't believe me, ask Zhao Xiuwen next to you!"

Lan'er looked at the wine in her hand suspiciously, then turned to look at Zhao Xiuwen.

Zhao Xiuwen was taken aback when Zhang Zezhong mentioned him, but quickly realized what was going on.

"That's right, Sister Lan'er. Last time I saw Wei Yang drinking at the tavern, she only drank Green Python Wine and didn't drink Peach Blossom Wine."

Zhao Xiuwen's intervention successfully averted the crisis.

Who Xiaolan is is no longer important at this moment.

If Bo Pi claims she's his niece, then she must be a man, and from now on, she must also be Bo Pi's niece.

The singing girls fed her wine, and Zhuang Weiyang could drink it in large gulps.

He could even get drunk and fall into the arms of a singing girl.

But when Bo Pi's daughter fed him wine, he couldn't drink a single drop.

Otherwise, Zhuang Weiyang would never be able to shake off the title of nephew-in-law.

Lan'er put down her wine bowl, got up and walked to the backyard, leaving only a single word of advice in the air.

"Brother Weiyang... Lan'er will go get you the Azure Python Wine. Wait for Lan'er, don't be anxious."

Zhuang Weiyang was in a real bind.

How will I get past the next level?

Zhao Xiuwen can help once, but not a second time.

Besides, this guy didn't have good intentions either.

He simply didn't want to become a pauper himself after mastering the art of war, only to then cling to Bo Pi's coattails!

Zhuang Weiyang's mind raced, hoping that Lan'er would return later.

Bo Pi, seated at the head of the table, took in all of this, and his opinion of Zhuang Weiyang rose even higher.

After clearing his throat twice, Bo Pi turned the students' attention to himself.

"Haha, let's drink and not forget our business."

"The summer harvest martial arts exercise is almost here."

"All of you here are outstanding talents of the Wu Kingdom."

"Do you know what the reward is for the top prize in this martial arts competition?"

Upon hearing this, the group's drunkenness subsided somewhat, and they all clasped their hands in greeting, begging the Grand Tutor for some guidance.

Bo Pi didn't keep them in suspense and said directly:

"The last few are not much different from those in previous years' martial arts competitions."

"A first-tier weapon, a half-demon warhorse... even the worst of them have some coins."

Zhuang Weiyang also listened attentively and nodded repeatedly.

He wants a share of these benefits.

Weapons and warhorses were all things he needed.

Even the worst knife coin contains the luck of the human race and can be used to buy spirit rice in the public fields to help temper the physical body.

Spirit rice can help ordinary people advance to a higher realm, and it can also help ordinary cultivators increase their cultivation level.

Even if it's useless to Zhuang Weiyang, he can still use the knife coins or spirit rice to exchange with the demon race for what he needs.

Of course, he has already revealed that he has mastered wind techniques, and his combat strength is definitely not weak among the group.

If you can get more benefits, then get more benefits.

Bo Pi's next words made Zhuang Weiyang's breathing quicken.

"This first-place winner received a full suit of armor personally forged by the Gongshu family!"

"I don't need to elaborate on how precious this full suit of armor is, do I?"

Reality is not like a game.

In the game, armor only adds a little bit of defense.

In reality, Zhuang Weiyang, clad in full armor, could defeat at least five people of equal strength.

The attendees also understood the purpose of full armor.

"Sir, are you telling the truth?"

"The Gongshu family's full suit of armor was top-quality stuff. In the past, possessing a full suit of armor was a crime punishable by law!"

"Yes, yes! In a small country like Aolai, this kind of treasure could at least be exchanged for a city! I never expected my King of Wu to be so generous!"

"Does my king's greatness need you to explain it?"

The people below the stage had different expressions, but without exception, they were all secretly amazed by Fuchai's extravagant spending.

Upon seeing this, Bo Pi revealed a satisfied expression.

Zhuang Weiyang, standing in the crowd, was even more cautious.

He knew that the grand show was about to begin tonight.

Bo Pi's words were merely a prelude.

As expected, Bo Pi, having whetted the students' appetites, immediately revealed his true intentions, saying:

"Gentlemen, as you all know, the campaign against Qi is imminent."

"Not only my king, but also my crown prince is racking his brains and losing sleep over this matter! He only hopes that outstanding military talents can serve the country and join the war against Qi."

"This year's summer harvest martial arts competition is different in that, starting with the top-ranked player, they will choose the city they will guard in turn."

"I urge you all to carefully consider selecting border cities of Qi for defense! In case of any unforeseen circumstances, they can immediately serve the country!"

At this point, Bo Pi paused for a moment and glanced at everyone.

But how many people can make such a decision so quickly, considering matters that affect their future?

Except for Zhuang Weiyang.

I absolutely must go to Zhuili.

"Of course, if someone is willing to inform us in advance, they are willing to go to the Wu-Qi border."

"Serve my king, serve the crown prince."

"Then there's no need to participate in the martial arts competition. I, Bo Pi, the acting Crown Prince, will personally gift you a first-tier weapon of your choice!"

"Gentlemen, has anyone made a decision?"

As soon as he finished speaking, many students began to whisper among themselves.

Military training is about growing through war.

The full armor for the top martial arts champion is too elusive; most people don't even dare to dream of it.

But this level of weapon is something you can see and touch!

The crowd's agitation intensified.

"My lord, I am willing to go!"

Tang Xu pushed away the beauty in his arms, panting heavily, and said to Bo Pi.

"I, Tang Xu, am willing to give my life for the Kingdom of Wu!"

As soon as he finished speaking, many people followed suit.

Even Zhuang Weiyang, for a moment, had the idea of ​​participating in the war against Qi.

Participating in this great battle doesn't seem so bad; at least we can get a Tier 1 weapon...

Zhuang Weiyang instantly sensed something was wrong, and cold sweat immediately soaked her clothes.

wrong!

That's not right!

How could I have such thoughts?!

Zhuang Weiyang activated her heart fire with all her might, and the flames in her heart blazed brightly, which restored her clarity of mind.

Zhuang Weiyang then looked up, her gaze towards Bo Pi filled with even more apprehension.

The Second Realm Political Cultivator can stir people's hearts with just a few words!

If I hadn't been dreaming and spending so much time stirring up my inner fire...

Now, just like everyone else, he'll be caught up in the heat of the moment and sell himself out!

"Brother Weiyang, can you promise Lan'er that you will help Uncle Bopi solve his problems?"

"Lan'er heard that her brother has mastered the Wind Technique of the Military Sage~"

"If Brother Weiyang were to use the military strategies of a sage on the battlefield, he would surely terrify the people of Qi and make them flee at the mere sight of him!"

Just as I regained a sliver of clarity, Lan'er returned.

The sweet, comforting voice, mixed with a strange fragrance, made Zhuang Weiyang's head spin.

But Zhuang Weiyang was not afraid at all!

Are there also evil spirits that disturb people's minds?

My anger is not something to be trifled with!

Bo Pi's scheme was insidious, but he misjudged Zhuang Weiyang's control over the Heart Fire.

Throughout the past day, Zhuang Weiyang had been constantly stirring up her inner fire.

Zhuang Weiyang mastered these subtle techniques of burning inner fire and resisting temptation without any formal instruction.

"The fire in my heart, ignite!"

Suddenly, flames burst forth from his heart, and the heart fire blazed brightly!

Zhuang Weiyang's face turned pale, her inner fire quickly dissipated, and she was freed from all mental influences.

However, due to the excessive consumption of his inner fire, Zhuang Weiyang's energy and spirit were once again depleted.

This leads to...

Zhuang Weiyang's face turned pale, and she shook her head repeatedly, pushing away Lan'er who was pressing against her. Her hands trembled uncontrollably.

"Sister Lan'er, please wait."

"Recently, Wei Yang has been indulging in unrestrained behavior and has been harmed by wine and women."

"Now, after much painful reflection, I've made an immediate decision..."

"Quit pornography!"

Lan'er: "..."
