Although Sun Siwen sometimes liked to show off his achievements and abilities in front of Lu Yuan, this mostly belonged to the jokes between friends.

When faced with real issues, he had a clear understanding of himself.

Just like this time, when everyone thought Lu Yan’s juren title was due to his efforts, he thought otherwise.

On the contrary, he felt a bit unhappy about the misunderstanding from outsiders: “It’s obviously Lu Yan’s decades of hard study that led to his achievements today, yet people attribute the credit to me.

It’s really unfair for those of us who have struggled to become students step by step.”

“When Lu Yan returns, I will definitely clarify this point.”

Although being known as a teacher who produced a juren would benefit Sun Siwen’s future development,

he did not want to use other people’s efforts for his own career progress, which would be too shameless.

As for his friend’s thoughts, what could Lu Yuan say?

Besides being more relieved that his friend could stick to his principles, he could only admire: “Brother Sun’s aspirations and mind are worthy of being a role model for the world.”

Upon hearing this, Sun Siwen shook his head with a bitter smile: “What role model? I’ve also thought about pretending not to know about this, but I can’t pass my heart’s hurdle. Nor can I thicken my face.”

The night meeting ended with Sun Siwen clarifying his intentions.

A few days later, Zhou Qing excitedly ran over.

“Master, I’ve cultivated Inner Strength.”

This young apprentice ran in front of Lu Yuan, excitedly stretched out a finger, and then with a divine intention, moved his Inner Strength to the fingertip. His slender finger immediately turned slightly red and swelled a little.

“Not bad, not bad.”

Seeing this scene, Lu Yuan showed a smile on his face and praised generously: “Being able to cultivate Inner Strength in twelve days, your talent is already good.”

Although he praised Zhou Qing, Lu Yuan sighed in his heart.

Zhou Qing had his teachings and solved his confusion earlier, but in the end, it still took him twelve days to cultivate Inner Strength.

Although it took Lu Yuan half a year to cultivate Inner Strength, most of that time was spent exploring the technique.

If he excluded those exploratory factors and under the same conditions, Lu Yuan believed that he could cultivate Inner Strength within ten days.

‘So Xiaoqing’s talent should be mediocre, a little better than ordinary people, but limited in how good it is,’ he deduced.

Then he felt that the hope of his apprentice avenging himself had become even smaller.

Zhou Qing didn’t know about the pity in his master’s heart.

He had just cultivated Inner Strength, and with his master’s praise, he was excited at this moment.

Seizing this opportunity, he recalled some difficulties and problems he encountered during his cultivation in these days and said, “Master, I’ve been cultivating for the past few days and encountered some confusion. I beg Master to enlighten me.”

Seeing his disciple’s sincerity in seeking advice, Lu Yuan nodded, restrained his thoughts, and smiled: “Go ahead. I’ll teach you whatever you don’t understand.”

No matter whether Zhou Qing could avenge himself or not, as a Master, he would teach what he should teach seriously and would not deceive or ignore his apprentice.

This is a principle.

That morning, Lu Yuan spent the day explaining and dispelling doubts.

In addition to Zhou Qing’s note of confusion, he also pointed out in advance the various problems that might be encountered when practicing the First Mental Technique.

By solving the difficulties first, he saved his disciple from slowly exploring and provided some help as a master.

In the end, everything that should be taught was taught.

Lu Yuan looked at the sky and decided it was almost time for lunch, then stood up and said: “That’s it for today’s lesson. Remember what I said, it will save you a lot of effort.”

“Yes.” Zhou Qing immediately got up and saluted.

“Well,” Lu Yuan nodded and thought for a moment, then hesitated for a while before taking out a jade bottle from his chest and placing it in Zhou Qing’s hand: “This is the Blood Jade Divine Medicine that I refined using the Blood Jade Centipede you provided.

At that time, I made a total of five pills, and now I’ve taken four already, leaving one for you.

Consider it a congratulatory gift from your master for cultivating Inner

Strength.”

This Blood Jade Divine Medicine was refined with the help of Zhou Qing,

and during the refining process, Zhou Qing had contributed many rare Herbs that were cherished by the Zhou family’s ancestors.

Although Zhou Qing said at the time that these were given to his master as an apprentice payment,

Lu Yuan felt that he should be conscientious about this in his heart.

Some part of this medicine belonged to Zhou Qing, so as a master, he didn’t have the thick skin to claim it all.

Moreover, just one pill could help Lu Yuan break through and save a year’s effort at most.

To reach the top, he needed to break through at least seven meridians.

A single Blood Jade Divine Medicine would not help him much with his current progress.

Compared to that, it was better to give it to his disciple.

For a beginner like Zhou Qing, one pill could help him break through a meridian, saving him three or four years of hard work, which was a tremendous aid.

But I can help my disciple save three or four years and provide some assistance,’ thought Lu Yuan.

“Master.”

Seeing the Blood Jade Divine Medicine in his hand, Zhou Qing didn’t expect his master to give him such a precious thing.

He knew how much effort and attention his master had put into refining this medicine at the time.

But now his master was giving the treasure to him.

Zhou Qing was touched and almost shed tears. He quickly tried to return it:

“This is the divine medicine that Master painstakingly refined. I can’t accept it.”

Lu Yuan’s face darkened: “Accept the gift I give you. Are you going to disobey

Seeing this, Zhou Qing didn’t dare to defy and reluctantly accepted with gratitude.

Lu Yuan nodded in satisfaction, then said: “This Blood Jade Divine Medicine can help you break through a meridian, it’s extremely valuable. However, since your Inner Strength cultivation is still shallow and you are not familiar with the operation of Inner Qi in your body, don’t take this medicine yet.

Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t be able to control the surging Inner Strength and might damage your meridians.

Wait until you’ve practiced a few more months, then take it when you’re familiar with the meridians in your body.

Don’t be hasty, understand?”

Zhou Qing felt the warmth of these words in his heart and nodded heavily: “I understand, I will definitely remember Master’s teachings and not take the medicine unless I’m sure.”

“I believe in you.”

Lu Yuan showed a smile upon hearing Zhou Qing’s words: “But wipe the tears off your face first. A grown man shouldn’t be crying all the time. We’re going to eat soon, and it would be a shame if people saw your tears.”

Zhou Qing listened, quickly wiped his tears and tidied up his appearance. Then, he went to the dining hall with his master to have lunch..
