Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

"I, I..."

Chen Tingting hesitated for a long time, unsure of what to say.

After a long pause, she suddenly spoke up as if possessed: "Xiao Qi, since you're my brother's disciple, could you teach us?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Yiyi and Wang Zhaodi also stared intently at Xiao Qi.

"Yes, Xiao Qi, please teach us! We want to fly too, it's so cool!"

Who says cultivation is only for men? Women like cultivation too!

Especially with a living example right there, after practicing, one can fly and become very powerful...

Overall, it's super cool!

Girls also yearn for the sky!

If Chen Tingting had known earlier that cultivation could make her this strong, she would have agreed to cultivate back then!

There's no need to just watch helplessly now, or even ask my cousin's disciple to teach me.

Unfortunately, there's no going back in this world.

Xiao Qi smiled and shook his head: "Cultivation isn't that easy. You're all overestimating things!"

"Now that the official breathing technique has been released, why don't you guys try it yourselves and see?"

The three girls looked at each other in bewilderment.

Although Xiao Qi didn't say it explicitly, the implication was that cultivation really exists!

The three girls felt even more passionate.

Liu Yiyi asked, "Xiao Qi, is that breathing technique that was announced really cultivable?"

"Since it's officially announced, why not give it a try? Practice makes perfect, you'll know the answer once you try it yourself," Xiao Qi said without giving a definite answer.

There was a lot of information involved, and she couldn't say too much.

"But I want to cultivate the kind my cousin cultivates, which is what you're cultivating now!" Chen Tingting said again.

Given an unknown, officially released mass-market version and an elite version with real-world case studies, even a fool would know which to choose.

If I can learn Ye Chen's cultivation method, why bother learning anything else?

Free things always give people a feeling of unreliability.

Although Liu Yiyi and Wang Zhaodi didn't say it explicitly, they both meant the same thing.

Xiao Qi, his face expressionless, calmly said, "You should first practice the officially released breathing techniques. That's the basic version. If you can't even understand that, there's no need to force yourself down this path!"

What her master taught her, she could not pass on to others without his permission.

The master's cousin was no exception.

Therefore, it is definitely not feasible to teach the Xuan Tian Breathing Technique.

She has already shown them the direction; she has no obligation to plan every step for them. How they do it is entirely up to their personal choices.

The three were about to say something more to try and persuade each other when Xiao Qi waved his hand to stop the endless conversation.

"Let's do it first, otherwise it's all just castles in the air. Since the official announcement has been made, there must be a reason for it. Perhaps this is also an opportunity!" Xiao Qi looked at the three of them and spoke slowly.

For some reason, the three of them felt unable to resist when they heard these words.

It's as if what Xiao Qi is saying is absolutely right!

Wang Zhaodi's throat bobbed, and she finally asked, "Xiao Qi, you've been cultivating for so long, what realm have you reached? Are the realm divisions as described online, Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, and Golden Core? How many levels of Qi Refining are you at...?"

Xiao Qi couldn't very well say that she had already reached the Foundation Establishment stage, especially the late stage...

That would make them question the meaning of life!

Xiao Qi didn't give a direct answer, but instead said, "You have to take things one step at a time. Don't worry about how far others have gone. Knowing too much is not good; it will affect your state of mind. Anyway, you have some free time now, so try some breathing exercises!"

"This path is tedious and monotonous, and you have to persevere every day. I hope you are mentally prepared!"

After Xiao Qi finished speaking, he didn't say anything more.

The dormitory fell silent.

Chen Tingting and the other two exchanged glances, then had no choice but to return to their respective beds and begin learning the officially published breathing techniques.

Chen Tingting pursed her lips tightly. If Xiao Qi could cultivate, so could they!

The three began practicing the Big Dipper Breathing Technique according to the official instructions.

But for beginners, even if they understand the text, putting it all together...

The ideal was beautiful, but reality slapped everyone hard in the face!

The first hurdle in cultivation is not understanding many technical terms!

Ninety-nine percent of people who have watched cultivation techniques for half an hour still don't fully understand the meaning of some of the terms.

Not to mention starting any breathing exercises!

Who said breathing can make you stronger?

Who says there are no barriers to cultivation? Does the official announcement of cultivation methods mean that everyone can cultivate?

Reality has taught everyone a harsh lesson!

"Xiao Qi, what does 'tongue against palate' look like? Is it like this?"

"Xiao Qi, where is the Qi Sea located?"

"How do you gesture three inches?"

"Xiao Qi, where are the Ren and Du meridians?"

"..."

When the three of them kept asking questions, Xiao Qi immediately showed off his skills, sharing his knowledge and explaining the specific steps to them.

There are some things she can't say, but anyway, this is the official cultivation method.

She was just helping a few people break it down so they could get started faster!

As her roommate, I'll still help her out if I can.

As long as it doesn't violate principles, it's fine.

The three were shocked by the images that suddenly appeared in their minds.

Xiao Qi actually answered their questions in a way they had never heard of before.

"Keep your minds focused and carefully understand. I will only teach you this once!" Xiao Qi reminded everyone.

The three of them felt a chill run down their spines and quickly composed themselves, stopping their wild thoughts for the time being.

Is cultivation simple?

If you know how and have someone to guide you, it's actually quite simple.

The three were shocked, but at the same time, they also felt a sense of sudden enlightenment.

This method of direct mental demonstration significantly reduces the difficulty of starting cultivation by several levels.

Filled with excitement, the three of them slowly entered a state of breathing exercises.

This was also a stroke of luck for the three of them.

It's because they have a roommate who knows how to cultivate himself.

But others weren't so lucky.

While Xiao Qi and her roommates were all starting to try cultivating, others were still searching everywhere for explanations of various terms.

Fortunately, the internet is now very developed, and there are many enthusiastic science popularizers.

Before long, someone posted an instructional video online!

It's just a paid version.

Even so, people still flock to it.

This really made the blogger a fortune!

Of course, free versions of the commentary videos gradually began to be released, but this did not diminish the popularity of the paid versions.

After all, many people believe that only paid products are authentic!

Just when everyone had finally overcome the hurdles and understood the terminology, and began to excitedly practice their vocabulary, a new problem arose.

What is Qi sensation?

Most people who practice breathing exercises for half an hour feel nothing except for passing a few farts.

My butt is numb from sitting so long, and my legs are tingling from all the static. But nobody ever complains that cultivation is this hard!

Once there is no positive feedback, people will start to doubt the authenticity of this breathing method!

Could it really be just ordinary qigong?

Holy crap, is it even worth persisting in this situation?

You should know that there are tons of fitness qigong exercises available online.

Even with long-term cultivation, it's nothing more than strengthening the body!
