Traveling through time to cultivate immortality: a life and death test

The three days and three nights of class flew by. Strangely enough, Liu Xing's enthusiasm for learning was inexhaustible; it was the fundamental difference between a top student and a poor student. After class, he always had endless questions, sometimes embarrassing the teacher. For questions he couldn't answer, he'd recommend relevant books and let him find the answers himself in the Sutra Library. Of course, these books required payment, and Liu Xing's 20,000 points quickly burned through, nearly using up all of them within a year.

"Liu Xing, I will be in seclusion for half a year. You will teach in my place for the next six months. Here is the class schedule." After class that day, the teacher actually found Liu Xing and talked privately about substituting for him.

"Can I really do it?" Liu Xing took the course schedule and looked at the content carefully. It was all content he knew, so there should be no problem if he prepared to teach.

"I see that the progress of your usual questioning has far exceeded the course progress, so there is naturally no problem. Of course, I am not asking you to teach for free. Take out your ID card and I will transfer 500 points to you as a reward for this time." said the teacher.

"Okay, I'll give it a try." Liu Xing thought for a moment before agreeing and handing his ID token to the teacher. He had nothing else to do, so he spent his days studying and researching restrictions. Now that he was filling in for the class, he was naturally happy to befriend a senior Jindan master. As for the points, they were completely indifferent.

"Okay, I'll be leaving first. You teach well for the next six months. When I leave, I have to assess the students' progress. You are not allowed to be lazy or slack off." The teacher threw the identity token to him and instructed.

"Goodbye, teacher. I will do my best." Liu Xing bowed and watched his teacher leave on the flying sword.

Teaching was different from answering questions for students. The course design, logic, and delivery style were all very particular. He spent five days preparing for the next class. Since it was his first time teaching, he researched the content very carefully, rehearsed it in advance, and mentally rehearsed it countless times until he was satisfied that there were no major issues. The end of the month class soon arrived, and Liu Xing arrived early, took his seat, and waited nervously for the students to arrive.

"Junior Brother Liu, you're here so early." A senior brother in the late Foundation Establishment stage greeted Liu Xing upon seeing him. He would often ask Liu Xing questions when he had them. Before, Liu Xing's realm wasn't as high as his, so he hadn't felt embarrassed. Now that Liu Xing's cultivation was the same, he was even more humble and eager to learn.

"Senior Brother Qian, it's not too late for you." Liu Xing responded hurriedly.

"Good morning, Senior Brother Liu!"

"Good morning, Senior Brother Liu!"

Fellow disciples came into the classroom one after another, and most of them greeted Liu Xing. Liu Xing was a kind person, but he patiently answered questions, so he was very popular. Of course, there were also some who ignored him, thinking that he stole the limelight and was a bit grandstanding. But Liu Xing didn't care, he just had to do his best. The class time came soon, and everyone was there. There were more than two hundred foundation-building cultivators in the class, and most of them were outer disciples. They usually practiced alone without a master to teach them. Except for the monthly open classes, they could only learn by themselves, so they all cherished such teaching opportunities. At this time, Liu Xing walked to the podium, and everyone was a little puzzled. They didn't understand what he was going to do, and they all watched quietly. They had all practiced for dozens or hundreds of years, so they still had some patience and cultivation. Liu Xing took out a recording talisman, and Liu Xing cast a spell on the talisman. Suddenly, the teacher's figure appeared in the sky. The teacher looked at everyone and said slowly:

"Master will be in seclusion for six months to comprehend a secret technique. I have chosen Liu Xing as the class representative. He will teach in my place for the next six months. Please observe discipline and listen carefully." With that, the shadow vanished, and everyone suddenly realized what was going on. A flurry of murmurs erupted among the students, some of whom were close to Liu Xing, while others remained indifferent, prepared to give it a try. If the lecture went well, they would continue to attend; if not, they would drop out. Some who disliked Liu Xing sneered, waiting to see him make a fool of himself. Liu Xing observed all this, smiling faintly, unconcerned.

"Hello everyone, seniors and juniors. From now on, I will prepare my lessons carefully and, incorporating my own insights, strive to teach each class well and live up to the trust of the teacher. I will also set aside more time after class to answer questions and discuss with you. This is my first time teaching, so please bear with me if I'm not very good at teaching." Liu Xing bowed to everyone and made a serious promise. Most of the students nodded gently, pleased with Liu Xing's attitude. Knowing his usual abilities, they also focused their attention and prepared to listen carefully. As for those who looked on coldly, they could leave them alone.

After a brief opening statement, Liu Xing began his lecture with undivided attention. His profound magical power and powerful spiritual awareness surpassed those of everyone present, allowing him to control the audience's moods. He delivered his lectures in a gentle voice, allowing the students to naturally enter a comfortable learning state. He found that this method had some benefit in improving his control over his spiritual power. Although the effect was minimal, it was a pleasant surprise. As for the course content, he had prepared it well in advance. Following a logical sequence, he employed a method of simplifying complex concepts and explaining them in simple, accessible ways. He guided the students step by step, and surprisingly, the students were captivated. Those with weaker foundations could follow the pace, while those with stronger foundations remained relaxed and gained new insights, as he always expanded upon the key points with his own personal insights and experience. At this point, his profound knowledge and profound understanding became extremely valuable. Compared to a teacher who lectured formally according to the syllabus, his teaching style was far more lively.

Three days passed quickly, and not a single person in the audience left mid-sentence, a fact Liu Xing was extremely pleased with. His mouth was dry from his lecture; despite his profound magical powers, he couldn't withstand the exhaustion of his full effort. His voice abruptly trailed off, the class over. He pulled out a bottle of water and gulped it down, moistening his throat. Then, smiling, he looked at his classmates, still lost in thought. As they gradually woke up, they were surprised to find that this class had been the most relaxing they had ever attended, and the one in which they had gained the most thorough understanding of the key points.

"Class representative Liu is indeed worthy of his reputation. We have benefited a lot from him." Senior Brother Qian praised sincerely.

"Yes."

"Yes, we'll come again next month. Thank you, Class Representative Liu."

Everyone echoed the sentiment, expressing their satisfaction with the class. Some female students were brimming with admiration for Liu Xing. The students who had previously watched with indifference also shut up, having nothing to say.
