When Bei Gong Tang had finished writing down the notes Feng Zhi Xing had given them, she noticed that Sima You Yue had not picked up the brush at all. Curiosity took over and she took the rare initiative to speak to Sima You Yue.
"Hmm?" Sima You Yue was surprised for a moment as she looked over at Bei Gong Tang. "I've got them all down."
Bei Gong Tang looked at her clean notebook and looked back, with her eyebrows raised in query.
Sima You Yue pointed to her head and tapped her temple. "It's all in here."
Looking at Bei Gong Tang's skeptical expression, she carried on: "Since young, once I've seen something, I can remember it. I've never forgotten anything once I've looked at it. I've memorized everything Master Feng taught."
Bei Gong Tang didn't bother anymore, the look of disbelief was still written all over her face but she went back to revise the notes that she had jotted down.
Sima You Yue didn't think that Bei Gong Tang would have sat at the last row. She was diligently reading the notes and quietly listening and concentrating hard on the class. However, she still gave off the same icy cold aura that separated her from everyone else, as if she had a barrier set around her. This piqued Sima You Yue's curiosity, what could she have experienced that made her that way? It was as if she had a deep hatred buried within, that even her eyes could not suppress.
A day of class passed by without any hitch as various cultivation theories and practical lessons were conducted throughout the day.
After they finished class, Sima You Yue and Fatty Qu went back to their courtyard and she lightly touched her rumbling stomach, she headed straight to the kitchen.While she was cooking, she could not help but let out a small sigh and lament, she spent quite an amount of time on food, when would she be able to catch up with her cultivation?
"Don't worry, you can also cultivate while eating." Little Spirit voiced out when he sensed what was troubling her.
"I can cultivate even when I'm eating? How is it that I've never heard of such a wonderful method before?" She asked.
"That's because you are ignorant." Little Spirit replied honestly without any hesitation.
Sima You Yue twisted her lips, this guy! Couldn't he be a little more tactful?
Well, she was an adult and he was only a small brat, she shouldnt argue with kids. She silently convinced herself as she asked: "So, how do you cultivate while eating?"
"Those plants that successfully absorb the Spiritual Qi in the air and store them are termed as Spirit Plants. They were originally ordinary plants, but some have managed to absorb the Spiritual Qi and store these Spiritual Qi within." Little Spirit explained.
Thinking of her past knowledge of photosynthesis, absorbing the carbon dioxide and converting it into oxygen, she could also relate to the matter of the plants absorbing Spiritual Qi.
"As long as you consume food that is imbued with Spiritual Qi, all the Spiritual Qi that were stored in them would be naturally absorbed by your body." Little Spirit carried on with his explanation.
"Really?" She raised an eyebrow, her voice full of doubt. "If it was so simple, why hasn't anyone else discovered this method? If things were so simple, I'm sure this would have caught on."
"It's because the Spiritual Qi here is too thin, there's not enough Spiritual Qi for these plants to transform into Spirit Plants and flourish. So everything in this world are only ordinary plants, so of course there's nothing special about them." Little Spirit replied with undisguised contempt.
