Shi Heng was discussing the knowledge of the feng shui path with others.

The improved feng shui knowledge obtained from Wang Ye was appropriately shared by Wang Ye here.

Even though not everything was revealed, each change in detail amazed the people around, leaving them in awe.

It felt like his improvements were simply perfect!

Shi Heng listened to the people around him, whose eyes were filled with shock and realization upon hearing his improvement plans, and the words they spoke made him feel a bit buoyant.

Isn't that what a feng shui discussion conference is about?

Sharing with others the achievements made during this time, basking in the admiring looks and hearing the praises from others' mouths, fulfilling one's own vanity.

You can also freeload on others' experiences in return.

Maybe, by freeloading in reverse, you can figure out a point about yourself, bring it up again, and savor the thrill once more.

And this time, because Shi Heng had the experience obtained from Wang Ye, he could talk about an extremely large number of improvements.

Moreover, Shi Heng didn't just say them all at once; he shared them slowly, one improvement at a time, making his way of speaking more enriching and the other people's looks of amazement towards him increase.

Of course, it wasn't just merely to satisfy his vanity.

That was just a side benefit.

More importantly, the greater the contribution made in this feng shui discussion conference, the higher his status in the feng shui path would rise, and in turn, the resources he would gain would increase.

In the process of their discussion.

Taking advantage of Shi Heng's pause, several people glanced towards the young magicians.

Immediately, a light "huh" sounded.

"Over there, it seems a few young ones are about to compete."

"Indeed, I was thinking right from the start that these young magicians had not had a proper competition yet; over several discussion conferences, they've been quite harmonious, unlike us back in the day. This time, it seems there indeed will be a competition among the younger ones."

Saying this, someone set their eyes on Shi Heng, and said to him, "Shi Heng, it looks like it's a competition between your disciple and others."

At first, Shi Heng hadn't looked that way, listening to those people's discussion.

In his view, competitions among younger people were just like children's play, nothing significant.

However, upon hearing that his disciple was involved, Shi Heng quickly looked over there.

He wasn't too surprised about Wang Ye competing against others.

After all, Wang Ye had hardly appeared in the feng shui circle before.

No one knew Wang Ye's strength.

No one had heard of Wang Ye.

Then, suddenly at this feng shui discussion conference, Wang Ye appeared and immediately received Zhou Xuan Ying's praise, which naturally made many suspect there was some behind-the-scenes manipulation.

It wasn't just the newcomers who thought so; in fact, Shi Heng knew that even those older magicians who had just been praising him must also think the same.

One hundred percent!

But they just hadn't shown it.

Under such circumstances, Wang Ye had to showcase his strength through competition to silence the murmurs.

Over at Zhou Xuan Ying's side.

Beside Zhou Xuan Ying, there was a feng shui master of the same age, also a Grand Master among the Patrol Commanders, named He Wo.

He Wo was the highest-ranked feng shui master among the Patrol Commanders, aside from Zhou Xuan Ying.

Also, he was the most authoritative figure at this feng shui discussion conference, except for Zhou Xuan Ying.

He Wo, smiling, took a sip of tea while looking at Wang Ye, who was about to fight Ting Yun, and asked Zhou Xuan Ying, "So, when you introduced Wang Ye to everyone present, you already anticipated there would be someone among the new magicians who'd be dissatisfied and challenge Wang Ye?"

"Yes." Zhou Xuan Ying didn't deny it, taking a sip of tea and nodding with a sly smile, "Over the years, these new magicians have only been discussing, never competing; it's been too dull."

"You, those juniors all think you're dignified and virtuous, but they didn't expect you to be so sly." He Wo teased.

Indeed.

From the beginning, this was merely a move by Zhou Xuan Ying.

Zhou Xuan Ying valued Wang Ye, and Wang Ye's performance this afternoon amazed him, but to be directly impressed in front of so many people was definitely not possible.

After all, in Zhou Xuan Ying's view, what prodigies like Wang Ye initially needed wasn't various connections but rather a kind of self-tempering.

Having too many resources at this time would only be a limitation to oneself.

So, he needed to add some conditions for Wang Ye.

For instance.

He provided an opportunity for Wang Ye.

And Wang Ye needed to stir the young magicians' atmosphere, making them compete.

"Exactly."

He Wo nodded slightly, "Having gone through so many ages of chaotic battles, the young magicians of this era begin enjoying peace right away, and thanks to our efforts, the status of magicians has increased significantly."

"On the contrary, compared to our time, these magicians lack a bit of competitive spirit, or in their subconscious minds, magicians are supposed to be genteel rather than competing."

"This mindset is not good."

"Whether it's martial arts or magicians, they are all cultivating a way. And in cultivation, it's about fighting against heaven! Fighting against people! Competing for various resources! This peace is not good for them."

Having said this.

He Wo looked at Zhou Xuan Ying meaningfully and asked, "But... aren't you worried that if Wang Ye really isn't as good as Ting Yun, your reputation will be affected?"

Zhou Xuan Ying laughed open-mindedly, "Oh, what's there to worry about regarding reputation or not?"

"You know, we're already people with one foot in the grave."

"Who knows, one day we might suddenly die; fame and such are just illusions, inconsequential."

He Wo looked at the open-minded smile on Zhou Xuan Ying's face.
