The First Tyrant of Daxia
Chapter 2138: Arrogant Man, Partridge
After the court session, Qin Yun changed into comfortable casual clothes and took Alfred to the Juxian Pavilion.
Juxian Pavilion was specially built by Qin Yun as a place for scholars to communicate and demonstrate their abilities.
In Juxian Pavilion, these talented people are arranged according to a ranking system. They compete with each other and the winners accumulate points. The higher the points, the higher the ranking, which means the more outstanding the ability.
These people appear in Juxian Pavilion naturally for fame and fortune.
But Qin Yun didn't care about these. As long as his ability was outstanding enough, he was willing to work for him and had no ulterior motives, Qin Yun didn't mind giving them the fame and fortune they wanted.
Alfred said, "Your Majesty, the person who ranks highest in the Juxian Pavilion right now is Partridge from Bronstow, with a score of 123, and he has defeated many prestigious scholars."
"Partridge?"
Qin Yun remembered the list Alfred submitted, "Is that the one you submitted, the third person on the list?"
"Yes." Alfred nodded.
Qin Yun asked curiously, "Since this person is the highest ranked person in Juxian Pavilion, why did you rank him third?"
Alfred said, "Your Majesty, it is like this. Although this person is very talented, he has some flaws in his character. He is arrogant and conceited, and cannot handle such an important task."
"The reason why he is ranked third is because his talent is so outstanding."
"Otherwise, I would not have allowed him to be among the top ten."
"Ok?"
After listening to Alfred's words, Qin Yun felt more interested.
"Is this Partridge really so talented? Is he really so arrogant?"
Alfred nodded seriously: "It is true, Your Majesty."
"This person once proposed the theory of self-concept. He believed that the world is divided into two worlds, one is the world of self-concept, and the other is the world of non-self-concept."
"The main point is that the world always changes with people's self-perception. For example, a flower is in front of the same person, but different people have different feelings about the flower, so they have two feelings about it."
"This theory caused a sensation throughout the Western world. Partridge's views on the world were regarded as classics by many people, and many people wanted to become his disciples."
"But Partridge is too arrogant and looks down on people who are weaker than him, so he doesn't have many disciples and his reputation is not very good."
After hearing what Alfred said, Qin Yun was stunned. Isn't this idealism?
"Do you also think his view of the world is correct?" Qin Yun asked with a smile.
Alfred hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, when I first heard this view, I also found it very interesting, but it seems that this view cannot stand up to careful scrutiny and always feels a bit strange."
"You're right to feel weird." Qin Yun smiled. This is idealism. If the world changes according to his wishes, then wouldn't he be the god of this world?
However, in this world, this view of the world can be said to be groundbreaking. It is no wonder that Patridge has gained a large number of followers. This is really a dimensionality reduction attack.
Alfred was a little surprised. "Your Majesty, do you know why his views are so strange?"
Qin Yun smiled but said nothing. He certainly knew why Patridge's views were so strange.
"Let's go in and meet this Patrick." Qin Yun took Alfred directly in.
As soon as you walk into the Juxian Pavilion, you can hear a fierce quarrel coming from inside.
Many famous scholars from the entire British region now gather in the Juxian Pavilion.
They argued fiercely to show their talents and support their own opinions. Some people even started quarreling and finally started pulling each other's hair.
As soon as Qin Yun walked in, he suddenly felt an unbearable noise in his ears, as if there were saliva flying in the air.
Military generals fought on the battlefield, with swords flashing and blood everywhere, but the battlefield of these literati was not necessarily weaker than that of the military generals. If these people got anxious and angry, they would really go up and pull their hair!
The verbal sparring in secret was even more fierce than the fight between military generals.
In addition to these debaters, there are many people showing off their other talents. The purpose of Juxian Pavilion is to embrace all rivers and be great because of its tolerance. As long as someone is capable, he can enter this place.
In order to facilitate the debate among these scholars, Qin Yun had a large open space left in the middle and a large stage built on it. Whoever stood on it would be the focus of the whole audience.
The focus of the whole audience at this moment is a little old man with a thin body, a gaunt face, a beard, but a spirited look.
The little old man stood in the middle of the stage, but he did not show any sign of timidity. Instead, he seemed extremely confident. To describe him in one sentence, he was like a one man guarding the pass against ten thousand.
Alfred said beside Qin Yun: "Your Majesty, that person is Patridge."
Qin Yun nodded. It was obvious that the old man standing there was very arrogant, fully demonstrating what it meant to be arrogant.
“This world is dominated by us humans. If you observe a tree or a bird, if you see it moving, it is moving. If you see it is not moving, it is not moving.”
"This is what I call the theory of self-idealism. The concept of self is the basis for identifying the world. The world is what you think it is. The world changes with your thoughts."
Partridge sat cross-legged on the ground with his head held high. “If you disagree with my opinion, feel free to come up and argue. But if you lose, I will only mock you mercilessly.”
Qin Yun was stunned for a moment and looked at Alfred beside him.
Alfred gave a helpless smile, as if to say, see, I was not wrong.
Qin Yun nodded. This guy was indeed too arrogant, but he was also really capable.
As the saying goes, there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts, and this is also true in the West.
Many people in Juxian Pavilion expressed dissatisfaction with Patridge.
Partridge glanced at them and said calmly, "You guys come up and debate together."
"That's unreasonable!"
"Too arrogant!"
"Partridge, today I'm going to make your theory collapse!"
Several people looked at each other and said in unison: "Let's go together!"
After that, several people rushed onto the stage together.
Qin Yun couldn't help laughing when he saw this. He thought that these people had said so many harsh words because they wanted to challenge Patrick in a duel, but they just rushed up together.
"Don't laugh! This is a top-notch debate. Watch it carefully and learn from it."
The scholar next to him saw Qin Yun laughing and couldn't help but scold him.
