I am a mage and a wet nurse, so using seven swords is not too much, right?

“Although this course is for new students, what Master Duan said is still very beneficial to us.”

Among the disciples sitting in the front row, there was even an old disciple whose cultivation level Ning Ruan could not tell.

When responding to Tutor Duan, he also had a familiar tone.

It was obvious that he had attended countless classes.

"Yes, we just like to listen to Teacher Duan."

"Teacher Duan has been in seclusion for many days. This is your first class in three months. Of course you can't miss it."

"..."

The relaxed conversation, as if between good friends, made Ning Ruan feel that this might be part of the reason why Teacher Duan was so popular.

"Haha." Instructor Duan chuckled and glanced at the people below. When he saw Ning Ruan, his eyes paused slightly, but then quickly moved away: "Disciples who have been in the academy for more than six years can leave. What I said today I won’t answer questions that are of no use to you and have nothing to do with today’s lecture.”

No matter how high the affinity is, a mentor is still a mentor after all.

As soon as Master Duan opened his mouth, all the disciples, even those who were not happy and did not want to leave, had to get up and leave with bitter faces.

There is no way, they came here not just to attend classes.

If they can't ask questions, then it's just a waste of time for them to sit here.

More than half of the disciples who attended the class were missing.

The remaining ones, except for the eight new disciples, have only been in Qingyun Academy for no more than six years.

Teacher Duan nodded with satisfaction.

The class finally started.

Ning Ruan just listened and tried it out at first.

But after a while, she changed her mind.

Instructor Duan, you really have something.

The content of what he said was not profound, but rather meant to check and fill in the gaps for the monks in their small world.

It's very basic.

But it’s really something that doesn’t exist in the Kyushu realm.

"The way of the sword is the way of the extreme, not the way of the mean."

“If you want to achieve perfection, you should first clarify the direction.”

"As for the direction of the sword, I personally think it may be fast, ruthless, powerful, or murderous."

"A swordsman who has no direction, even if he is strong and has a high level, will still have no advantage in actual combat."

"As a sword cultivator, you should pursue the ultimate in strength, be able to advance and never retreat."

"..."

After talking for about another two and a half hours.

Instructor Duan finally stopped.

He raised his eyes and glanced at the disciples below who seemed to be deep in thought.

He glanced at Ning Ruan again, then withdrew his gaze and said seriously: "I have already finished what I need to say today."

"If you have any questions, you can ask them now."

brush!

As soon as Teacher Duan finished speaking, most of the people stood up.

There are too many people who want to ask questions.

Of course he couldn't respond to all of them.

You can only click on one at random first.

The one who was called out was one of the eight new disciples from the small world.

"Teacher, I would like to ask, which of the four directions of kendo is better?"

Instructor Duan glanced at him and did not answer directly, but asked instead: "Why do you think some people cross the border to fight against the enemy and win, while others can only lose at the hands of low-level enemies?"

The disciple who asked the question replied without thinking: "Of course it's because of the different talents. Although they are in the same realm, their strengths are very different."

Before Master Duan could answer, the disciple vaguely understood and said hesitantly, "So no matter which direction we choose, there will be a gap because of our different talents?"

Teacher Duan slowly opened his mouth and said, "Talent is important, but choosing your own path is more important. If you choose the right path, even if your talent is slightly inferior, what does it matter?"

Done.

He suddenly narrowed his eyes slightly:

"You have been in the spirit world for a long time, have you ever heard of the name Li Mu?"

Everyone naturally knows who is the number one killing god of the Eastern Qin Empire.

"Then you know that with Li Mu's talent, he is not even qualified to enter Qingyun College."

"!!!"

All the disciples below showed shocked expressions.

Including the disciples who have been in Qingyun College for several years, they are also in disbelief.

That was Li Mu, the number one killer in the Eastern Qin Empire!

How is it possible that his talent is so poor that he can't even get into Qingyun Academy?

Instructor Duan was not surprised by everyone's reaction, "Li Mu's talent is indeed average, but his obsession with swordsmanship reached its extreme. Later, he went to the battlefield to fight against foreigners, and even entered the Tao, which is where he is now."

"Talent is indeed important, but who dares to question Li Mu's talent now?"

Not only do they not dare to question it, they simply cannot believe it.

But the person who said this personally was Instructor Duan.

Can Instructor Duan tell lies?

Of course it is impossible.

Looking at the dazed disciples below, Master Duan continued: "So, if you want to become a truly powerful swordsman, you must choose a path that suits you."

Ning Ruan felt that what he said made sense.

Looking ahead and looking back, it is indeed difficult for a mediocre swordsman to become invincible in the same situation.

but……

Then again, she doesn't seem to have a specific direction.

And none of these four directions seems to be suitable for her.

Ning Ruan wanted to ask a question.

But it's a step slower.

Instructor Duan has already ordered someone else.

Wait until he finishes answering the question.

This time, Ning Ruan got up quickly.

Not surprisingly, Teacher Duan, who had intended to answer the new disciple's questions first, finally called on her.

"I want to ask, besides speed, ruthlessness, force, and killing intent, is there any other way?"

Teacher Duan's eyes deepened slightly, "Maybe there is, but I don't know."

That's it.

Even if there is, I am afraid it will be classified as moderate.

Ning Ruan understands.

“What if you feel that none of these four paths are suitable?”

"..." These words indeed asked Instructor Duan.

If he asked someone else, he wouldn't pay too much attention. If someone is not suitable for these four paths, it only means that the other person is very average in kendo.

Even if your realm is improved in the future, your strength will definitely not be as good as those who have found the right direction.

But since the person asking the question was the child of destiny, Teacher Duan had to be cautious, "You just haven't found your direction yet, it doesn't mean you are not suitable for these four directions."

"Besides, you are only at the fifth level, and you still have time to choose the right direction. There is no need to rush this matter."

There was a pause.

Most of them still felt that these words were too pale. Instructor Duan suddenly said: "Or, if it is convenient, you can try using the sword now."

This is where Teacher Duan helps find the direction based on the actual situation.

After realizing Master Duan's intention, both new and old disciples felt surprisingly the same at this moment.

Shock.

envious.

Even with a little jealousy.

The son of destiny is indeed given preferential treatment.

Ning Ruan has no inconvenience.

I also really want to hear your opinions.

So there is no intention to hide one's clumsiness.

He slapped the sword box with his backhand, and three sword lights shot out——
