"If you'd like, you can practice with me first," Zhou Ze said with a slight smile to Bolan.
Practice along with me?
Berlan was slightly puzzled, then asked doubtfully, "Train with them? Is this the same as being a lightning apprentice?"
Zhou Ze nodded and said, "You could say that, or you could say that—"
Bolan still seemed somewhat unwilling: "Senior, how can I become your disciple, or even your personal disciple?"
Zhou Ze smiled and said, "I don't have a personal discipleship system; there's only a system of nominal disciples. Since you've become my disciple, you're naturally all my disciples—"
Bolan's eyes lit up. If that's the case, training with a senior would mean being a nominal disciple, but perhaps without the official title.
However, they receive the same treatment as registered disciples.
"You can just call me Teacher Zhou from now on. That's what all the students in the 'Master Teacher' space call me," Zhou Ze said calmly. "You can ask me anytime if you have any questions—"
"Alright, you did pay for the first lesson, so feel free to ask me any questions."
Bolan eagerly asked, "Teacher Zhou, how come Luo Feng, Rong Jun, Clark, Lei Dian, and the apprentices comprehend the laws so quickly? Could you teach me?"
"Hmm, maybe I explained it in more detail," Zhou Ze said with a slight smile. "Bolan, right? I do know you to some extent."
"Logically speaking, you should be ranked first in talent in this year's Genius Battle. It's a pity you chose the 'Cosmic Chaos Monument'. If you had chosen another Chaos Monument, you might not have fallen so far behind."
Berlan's eyes showed some struggle as he said, "Teacher Zhou, the teacher from the Primal Secret Realm, also advised me to give up—"
"But I'm never willing to accept it—"
"Either don't choose, or choose the best—"
"What are you unwilling to accept? I didn't say you had to give up!" Zhou Ze said with a half-smile.
"Forehead()."
Bolan was slightly taken aback. He thought Zhou Ze was going to ask him to give up the dual cultivation of the laws of time and space. He had originally planned to give up and listen to Teacher Zhou's arrangements, but he didn't expect Zhou Ze to say this.
"Teacher Zhou, you don't object to me cultivating two superior laws at the same time?" Bolan asked again.
Zhou Ze smiled faintly and said, "There's nothing to object to. I've never liked to force anyone when I teach. Even with my students, I will only ever offer suggestions."
You can take anything I say as a reference; if you think it's good, put it into practice; if you think it's bad, just treat it as a story.
Berlan was at a loss for words. He could only feel Zhou Ze's magnanimity. Even when facing these little guys who were only at the Hengxing or Universe level, he said such words that put himself in a very low position or had no airs at all.
Is this the difference between an ordinary teacher and a famous teacher?
Berlan thought to himself silently.
"Okay, Professor Zhou," Bolan said solemnly.
Zhou Ze waved his hand: "Relax, why are you so serious—"
Zhou Ze summoned a stone table and two chairs, sat down, and pointed to the chair opposite him, saying, "Sit down. It's our first meeting, let's have a good chat. That's much better than simply giving instructions on the laws of nature."
"Okay." Berlan sat stiffly in the chair, his back straight.
"Hehe—" Zhou Ze smiled slightly, looking at Bo Lan's restrained appearance: "Let me ask you a question, why do you insist on cultivating the laws of time and space simultaneously?"
"Just speak your truest thoughts directly, without any reservations. I just want to hear what's deepest in your heart!"
Bolan wasn't good at interpersonal relationships, so he felt comfortable with Zhou Ze's teaching method and said directly:
"Because I know that only by fully comprehending both of the two superior laws can one become a true peak powerhouse; comprehending only one superior law will at most make one a national ruler."
"And my plan is to gain the recognition of the two supreme laws before achieving immortality, and then break through to immortality in one fell swoop—"
"As for the speed of cultivation, I don't really care, and I don't care about secret techniques either—"
Zhou Ze nodded. Bolan had a clear plan for himself, or rather, his teacher before he joined the Virtual Universe Company was extremely farsighted.
"Good idea, ambitious too. That's nothing. I'm not afraid you have it, I'm afraid you don't—" Zhou Ze's lips curled into a slight smile, then he paused:
"But don't forget, no matter how talented you are, if you cultivate both time and space, your rate of progress will be drastically reduced. Breaking through the Heavenly Bridge isn't a big deal, since the rewards aren't much—"
"But when it comes to the qualifying battles, you will definitely be hampered by the laws of time. You might have been able to enter the Primordial Secret Realm, but because of this, you will only be able to stay in the Beginning Secret Realm. Compared with the Primordial Secret Realm, the Beginning Secret Realm is far inferior in all aspects of resources. This is not conducive to long-term cultivation at all!"
Berlan said calmly, with a hint of a sigh, "I have considered that."
"But with Luo Feng and the others around, even if I reach the Domain Lord level, I have little hope of entering the Primal Secret Realm—"
The Primal Secret Realm has a fixed number of slots: 100 Realm Lords, 10 Domain Lords, and 3 Universe-level Lords. The Universe-level Lords are self-explanatory, and the Domain Lords are 10. In Bolan's view, Luo Feng, Rong Jun, Thor, Clark, and the apprentice have basically filled five of the Domain Lord slots.
As for the other five, given the time they've spent at the Domain Lord level, even if he has exceptional talent, it's impossible for him to secure a spot in the Primal Secret Realm in a short period. Furthermore, he can't afford to spend too much time remaining at the Domain Lord level.
"There are over a thousand people in the Primordial Secret Realm, while there are only about 100 people in the Primordial Secret Realm," Zhou Ze said. "Not only are there very few people in the Primordial Secret Realm, but it is also the most valued, so we still have to go into the Primordial Secret Realm."
Berlan took a deep breath and said, "I understand, Teacher Zhou, I will try my best—"
"You mean I should focus on the laws of space first, and only start studying the fundamental laws of time once I enter the Primordial Realm and am confident I can maintain my qualification there?"
Zhou Ze laughed and said, "That's right! You must understand the importance of resources. Your ultimate goal is still to become a World Lord in the Primal Secret Realm."
"As for the Primordial Realm Master, unless they break through to immortality or perish, it is almost impossible for them to be dethroned by someone else."
"Your current efforts to secure resources are laying the foundation for your future status as a Realm Lord. Now you should understand, right?"
A slight smile appeared on Bolan's indifferent face as he exclaimed in admiration, "Teacher Zhou, none of my previous teachers ever told me these things. They just told me to do what they said, without explaining anything in as much detail as you have."
"No wonder the apprentices say your guidance is just as effective as the Chaos Stele, and even more so in terms of details!"
Berlan said with a hint of excitement, "Now I understand completely."
Zhou Ze nodded and smiled, "It's good that you understand. There are many details involved, such as when to advance to the Domain Lord level, when to advance to the World Lord level, etc. But as far as possible, we should avoid being stuck at a certain level—"
"After all, each major transformation allows the soul to evolve, greatly increasing both comprehension and the clarity of understanding the laws—"
"And once you reach the Domain Lord level, you'll be deployed to a higher level. Even though Luo Feng and the others are drawing attention in this year's Genius Battle, you can't be careless. You must always keep yourself in the sight of your guards—"
"After you leave Chaos City, you can take on cultivation missions, but you must act according to your abilities and not overexert yourself—"
"As for the realm lord going to the outer battlefield, it's somewhat up to fate, but one should still be cautious in normal times—."
Zhou Ze spoke at length and in great detail, and Bolan listened patiently for a long time before Zhou Ze finally stopped and said:
"You can ask me any questions you have. I'll answer any question I can. My teaching philosophy is to make everything crystal clear so you can make the best choice for yourself!"
Bolan hesitated slightly, but still mustered his courage and said, "Teacher Zhou, isn't this a bit too cowardly?"
It must be said that Zhou Ze's admonitions conflicted greatly with the philosophy he had been taught since childhood. After all, the education Bolan received from childhood was that to become a strong person, one should be fearless, have great perseverance, and be unafraid of life and death, rather than being timid and hesitant like Zhou Ze said.
