Zhang Xi knew the others were not convinced that Duan Li reached his current cultivation level in just under a single month, and that they thought he was just exaggerating things. Thus, he purposely used this exam as an opportunity for them to open their eyes wide.
After all, he and the Principal as well as their other small circle of friends had already been shocked to death, and it would be unfair for the others to not experience the same feeling as well.

Furthermore, Duan Li was about to become the Imperial Overseer soon, so the more senior teachers that acknowledged him prior to his coronation, the less opposition will they have to face later on!
"Cultivation is the absorption of spiritual Qi from the surrounding into one's dantian, and then cycling them throughout the body through the meridians and channel pathways to perform miracles." Duan Li started with his hands clasped behind his back, his disposition gradually changing into that of an expert.
Seeing this, the other senior teachers curled up their brows and frowned.
Why is a mere Core Formation student acting like an expert in front of senior teachers like them?
What gal!
Although they were a bit riled, since this was an examination, they decided to give the other party some slack and go on with his lecture.
"Simple, concise and straight to the point. I like that! Continue!" Zhang Xi nodded in approval at Duan Li's introduction to his lecture.
"En. From this definition, cultivation can therefore be divided into three process; Absorption, Tempering, and Release! All these three are in continuous cycle in order to reach harmony with nature!" Duan Li continued as he tilted his head to the ceiling, seeming to peer into the secrets of the world itself.
For a cultivator, after absorbing or inhaling spiritual Qi into their body, they will use it to temper their body both internally and externally. This was why there were different realms between cultivator in the first place!
Subsequently, the spiritual Qi must be always recycled between the cultivator and the nature, hence release, or exhalation during the execution of their breathing technique!
"Only when one can do this will they be considered as a cultivator! Why? Because to perform miracles, it is similar to borrowing the force of nature, and one must be aligned with the natural surrounding first!"
"To put this into an analogy, it is the same as how a still water could never hope to erode a single pebble! Yet, by borrowing the power of the wind, the water will be able to create waves which in turns could even erode a mountain given enough time!"
All the four senior teachers nodded in agreement this time. They had to applause silently in their hearts when they heard this, even for the proud Ding Ziqing!
To think that a junior student had already developed such a concise comprehension towards cultivation that he was able to verbalized everything directly into the crux..
This was already on the level of philosophical culmination, similar to an expert that had observed the world for a very long time!
"However..." Duan Li paused dramatically.
"This is all but inefficient!" He suddenly said as he shook his head, causing the senior teachers to become agape!
Ah? Inefficient?
Inefficient your head!
Cough! Cough!
Zhang Xi that had always been known to possess a calm composure even in the midst of tribulation could be heard coughing intensely, as if a patient with a terminal disease.
"... Interesting. But, do you mind to enlighten us?" he said quickly before the others could chimed in and berate the later!
Are you trying to push everyone to oppose you here?
Those are the very ideology that a veteran cultivator had followed all their life!
For you to say that it was inefficient, aren't you practically saying that they had cultivated wrongly?
As if expecting their bewildered expression, Duan Li chuckled for a moment before replying, "Simple. Cultivation in itself is an act of defying the heavens. Therefore, one needs to defy the very law that binds themselves to nature! Only by defying nature itself can one truly improve by leaps and bounds!" Duan Li said grandly.
Pu!
Defying both the heavens and nature while living under their roof?
Are you sure you are not implying to become a robber instead of a cultivator?!
"Preposterous! You are just talking gibberish! I was wrong to be impressed with you for a moment there! This is extremely disappointing!" Ding Ziqing bellowed out as she pointed her index finger to Duan Li, seething with rage!
"You think that I am lying? Hmph! Come here and do a Sonar Qi onto my body then if you do not believe me!" For the first time, Duan Li harrumphed to the other party.
He had tolerated the other party viewing him in disdain earlier, and now, she even went so far as to point finger towards his face!
How rude!
Do you think that just because you are a senior teacher, I do not dare to pummel you?
"Y-You! Very well! Although I do not know why you want me to perform Sonar Qi on you, but this is your last chance to prove your words! Otherwise, I will be forced to fail you!" Ding Ziqing was even more enraged being scoffed at by a mere student.
Suuu!!
With a single step, she disappeared from her initial spot before reappearing right behind Duan Li, trying to catch the other party off guard so as to let him know the differences between them.
However, Duan Li had already turned his head over and set his eyes on her with a cold glance, even before she appeared!
This sent her body into an instinctive shiver!
It seemed as though her movements was seen through by Duan Li the moment she executed her movement skill art which was supposed to be impossible!
After all, she was a Nascent Soul realm expert while the other party was only at the Core Formation realm!
It was unheard of for such a thing to happen!
"What... Hmph! It must be a fluke! This arrogant young man is truly infuriating!" she said to herself, thinking that Duan Li was only lucky to be able to see through her.
Nevertheless, she still placed her hand onto Duan Li's back and executed a Sonar Qi. This was extremely simple for an expert of her caliber to do and was not worth a mention.
Huuuu!
However, moments after she placed her hands onto Duan Li's back, her countenance immediately turned pale and she retreated all the way to the back with a single leap, and then her back facing against the wall, she slumped to the floor weakly as if she had seen the ghost of her ancestor, her whole body trembling!
"Wha-What... Impossible! What are you?!" She muttered incoherently, her backs drenched with sweat.
Seeing this scene, Le Cenglei and Shen Long furrowed their brows.
"What happened? What did you do to her?" their countenance turned hostile, thinking that Duan Li had made a move onto Ding Ziqing!
"Calm down, Duan Li did nothing to harm her. Just repeat what she did before, and you'll both soon learn the reason why." Zhang Xi waved his hand.
The duo looked at each other before nodding. From their perspective, it seems like the Vice-Principal had already anticipated this beforehand, making them curious.
Tap! Tap!
Shortly after placing their hand onto Duan Li's back and executing Sonar Qi, their eyes immediately widened as they too retreated away from Duan Li, as if avoiding a plague!
"What in the world?! You... You cultivated... using all three dantians?!!!"
Just like that, they felt their whole cultivation almost going berserk as their state of mind spiralled into insanity..
...
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
