Chapter 131: Principal Lin, the Exemplar of Scholars Worldwide!

As soon as this teaching philosophy emerged, it spread throughout the Imperial Academy, and all the teachers and students bowed in admiration!

At the same time, it spread throughout the capital city, and scholars in the entire city began praising him!

Their hearts were filled with admiration!

“To establish the heart for heaven and earth, to establish the mission for the people, to inherit the wisdom of the sages, and to bring eternal peace… In just four sentences, it encompasses the lifelong pursuit of scholars. Principal Lin is truly talented!”

“These four sentences can serve as my life motto!”

“Originally, I didn’t believe that the top scholar deserved to become the Principal. But based on his teaching philosophy and the four sentences he recited, I believe that the top scholar is definitely qualified to be the Principal!”

“Yes! I also believe that under the leadership of Principal Lin, the Imperial Academy will flourish!”

“This is the best era for scholars!”



Naturally, this teaching philosophy also reached the imperial palace.

“To establish the heart for heaven and earth, to establish the mission for the people, to inherit the wisdom of the sages, and to bring eternal peace…”

The Empress delightedly murmured, “Good, truly good. He deserves to be the top scholar I selected! Scholars should be like this, with such ideals and aspirations!”

The Empress said loudly, “Make this statement the motto of the Imperial Academy! All students and teachers of the Imperial Academy must memorize and understand it!”

“Furthermore, appoint Lin Beifan of the Imperial Academy as the exemplar of scholars worldwide. Spread this proclamation throughout the nation and let it be known far and wide!”

“Let scholars from all over the world learn from Principal Lin!”

“Yes, Your Majesty!”

With the Empress’s support, Lin Beifan’s reputation soared even higher!

Every scholar in the world knew Principal Lin!

His teaching philosophy became the maxims and pursuits of scholars, spreading far and wide!

At this moment, Lin Beifan had already finished work and returned home.

Seated on his left was his wife, Li Shi Shi, who kept serving him food and pouring wine, her beautiful eyes misty as she looked at Lin Beifan with admiration.

Seated on his right was Mo Rushuang, who couldn’t help but glance over during the meal, her face radiant with desire.

I have to say, the title of Principal has given him a considerable boost, making him full of charm.

Sitting across from him is the little princess, who is looking at Lin Beifan with envy through her cute and large eyes.

She couldn’t help but be jealous. This guy is such a poser!

After visiting the Hundred Flowers Pavilion, he left behind a poignant poem called “Silently Ascending the Courtesan…” which depicted the hardships of the women in the brothel.

It made scholars hesitate to visit the brothel!

After visiting the Thundercloud Temple, he left behind a romantic poem called “Heavenly White Jade Capital, Twelve Towers and Five Cities…” which was widely praised throughout the world and earned him the title of “Heavenly Immortal”!

He participated in a poetry gathering and left behind an eternal verse called “When Will the Bright Moon Appear, Holding Wine and Asking the Blue Sky…” which captured the yearning and romance of the moon, establishing him as the unrivaled poet!

Now that he has become the Principal and put forth the super teaching philosophy of “To Establish the Heart for Heaven and Earth, To Establish the Mission for the People…” he has become the exemplar of scholars worldwide, renowned throughout the land!

His style is off the charts!

The little princess is consumed by envy. She also wants to be as impressive as Lin Beifan!

“Why are you looking at me like that, little princess?” Lin Beifan asked, puzzled. He noticed that she had been staring at him since earlier, even eating less.

“Lin Beifan, can you teach me how to be impressive?”

Lin Beifan: “Huh?



“What I mean is, can you teach me how to make everyone think I’m amazing and awesome!” The little princess danced with excitement.

In the midst of the expectant gaze of the little princess, Lin Beifan calmly took a sip of wine. “Young princess, aren’t you making things difficult for me? I’m just an ordinary scholar. I don’t know how to do that!”

“How can you not know?” The little princess rushed over and said excitedly, “Every time you make an appearance, you recite a poem, exuding such an impressive aura. It’s amazing!”

Lin Beifan calmly replied, “Is that considered posing? It’s just my everyday life.”

The little princess was instantly shocked!

Wow!

With just one sentence, he managed to pose!

This guy’s level of posing has reached an extraordinary realm, returning to its original nature!

“Lin Beifan, teach me quickly!” The little princess said eagerly.

“Do you have no sense of requesting assistance? You should first address me as Mr. Principal!” Lin Beifan scolded.

“Mr. Principal, please, I’m begging you!” The little princess blinked her eyes, looking as innocent as a kitten, and said pitifully, “Please.”

“That’s more like it!” Lin Beifan stroked the little princess’s head while laughing and said, “How do you want to pose?”

“It would be great if every time I make an entrance, I have a poetic line! After hearing it, others will think I’m awesome! Can I do that?” The little princess danced with excitement while asking eagerly.

“That’s the simplest thing!” Lin Beifan calmly smiled and said, “When you make an entrance, you just need to recite… ‘At the peak of immortality, I stand proudly in this world. With me, Yunying, there is heaven! With the Red Peak Spear and the Eternal Shield, I slay the immortal king and annihilate the nine heavens!’

Immortality and heaven!

A spear and a shield!

And slaying the immortal king and annihilating the nine heavens!

The little princess, as well as everyone present, felt a strong aura of prestige coming over them!

“So powerful!!!” Everyone gasped in awe.

“So impressive! I love it!” exclaimed the little princess excitedly.

“But, will saying this line be too arrogant? Will it get me killed by others?” Li Shi Shi hesitated, her expression uncertain.

Lin Beifan calmly said, “No! It’s a surefire way to get killed!”

The little princess: “…”

“If you don’t possess the unrivaled strength of a supreme grandmaster, uttering this line would definitely be courting death!”

The little princess: “…”

The little princess felt weak, “Principal… Lin, can we change it to another line? I can’t handle this one, let’s choose something less arrogant!”

“That’s also possible. Listen carefully!” Lin Beifan nodded.

“Tell me!” The little princess once again filled with anticipation.

Lin Beifan declared, “Who stands at the end of the immortal path? In one encounter, Yunying becomes emptiness! Grasping the sun, moon, and stars, there is no one else like me in this world!”

The immortal path and emptiness!

The sun, moon, and stars!

“It’s either becoming emptiness or being a person like no other!”

Everyone once again felt a surge of pressure, hitting them head-on!

“So powerful!!!” Everyone gasped in awe once more.

Even the two monks who were eating and chanting the Buddha’s name almost couldn’t hold it together. They chanted

“Amitabha” to suppress the arrogance demon within them!

“I want this one!” The little princess was so excited that she almost cried.

Every time she made an entrance and shouted this line, it would definitely impress the whole audience and make her the most dazzling presence!

“But this line is still quite arrogant! Can the little princess handle it? What if passing experts take offense and eliminate the little princess?” Mo Rushuang worriedly expressed her concerns.

Such things are not uncommon in the martial world!

Sometimes, it’s precisely because one is too arrogant that they get killed by a low-profile expert, resulting in a very unjust and suffocating death!

Lin Beifan smiled faintly. Of course, the little princess couldn’t handle it!

This line encapsulates the fortunes of two xianxia protagonists. How could a little girl like her bear it?

The little princess also realized this and felt discouraged, “Can we change it again?”

“That’s also possible!” Lin Beifan nodded.

“Tell me!” The little princess urged eagerly.

Lin Beifan declared, “If I desire, the heavens cannot be without! If I desire nothing, the heavens will not permit existence! My destiny is like a demon, seeking to seal the heavens!”

Everyone gasped in awe once again, “Powerful!!!”

However, when the little princess thought about her own abilities, she became frantic with excitement, “Lin Beifan, don’t always use words like ‘immortal’ and ‘heaven,’ they’re too advanced! Let’s go for something simpler within the realm of martial arts on Earth!”

“That works!” Lin Beifan nodded.

“Tell me!” The little princess became excited again.

Lin Beifan proclaimed, “I am the Heavenly Emperor, destined to suppress all enemies in this world!”

Everyone: “Powerful, powerful, powerful…”

“Amitabha!” The two monks chanted the Heart Sutra once again, suppressing the arrogance demon within them.

The little princess became frustrated, “Didn’t I just say not to use words like ‘immortal’ and ‘heaven’? Let’s stick to something within the earthly realm!”

“You can also proclaim yourself as the Heavenly Emperor!” Lin Beifan suggested.

The little princess became even more frustrated, “I’ll be crushed by my older sister, the Empress!”

“Fine, I’ll think of something else!” Lin Beifan replied.

After a moment.

Lin Beifan shouted, “I am invincible in the mortal realm. If not against the heavens, then whom shall I fight?”

The little princess felt dejected, “Still too powerful…”

“But it’s within the earthly realm!” Lin Beifan argued.

“You can fight against the heavens, and you call that weak? Can we change it again?” the little princess pleaded.

After another moment.

Lin Beifan bellowed, “Heaven did not give birth to me, Wu Yunying, the sword path endures like an eternal night!”

The little princess once again felt discouraged, “Still too powerful. Can we make it weaker?”

“But this is already weaker. Among the martial arts, I only choose the path of the sword!” Lin Beifan responded.

“Enough talk, change it again!” the little princess insisted.



In the end, after a round of attempts, none of them were satisfactory.

Lin Beifan felt extremely tired and shook his head with a sigh. “Young princess, you are too weak. Even when given the chance to show off, you can’t seize it!”

The little princess lowered her head in guilt, suddenly feeling worthless.

“Only one line left, if this one doesn’t work, I’m out of ideas!” Lin Beifan sighed.

The little princess’s eyes lit up. “Tell me!”

Lin Beifan proclaimed, “Tell what? Lin Beifan acts throughout his life, why should I explain myself to you?”

The little princess suddenly became furious, “You look down on me?”

Lin Beifan smiled and shook his head. “That’s the line I mentioned! How do you feel about it, little princess?”

The little princess’s anger vanished in an instant, and she blinked her eyes. “Lin Beifan acts throughout his life, why should I explain myself? Alright, alright, I want this line! It’s perfect!”

Then she excitedly bounced and skipped out!

Li Shi Shi expressed some concern, “Husband, this line is still somewhat arrogant. I’m worried…”

Lin Beifan smiled and shook his head, “There shouldn’t be any problems! At least in the capital, her father has her back!”

As Lin Beifan predicted, the little princess encountered no issues later on.

However, the idle young masters in the capital suffered.

Because the little princess needed a stage to show off, she needed targets, and those idle young masters were the best targets.

The little princess would start attacking them as soon as she saw them, slapping them left and right.

When the idle sons asked why she was hitting them, the little princess would young masters with a single line, “Lin Beifan acts throughout his life, why should I explain myself?”

And then she would continue slapping them!

Silence was not an option!

If they didn’t speak, the little princess would keep hitting them until they did!

As soon as they said something, she would reply with that line!

That’s just how willful she was!

The capital became chaotic with people running around in disarray!

After two days, Mo Rushuang, Li Shi Shi, and Lin Beifan walked into the study.

“Young master, we just received a letter from the prince! He says he wants to obtain the method of manufacturing the watercraft air-cushion!”
