During these moments, an elderly man was lecturing in the grand hall. He spoke fluently and confidently. Behind him hung a massive black mirror, which displayed diagrams of the human anatomy, alongside some basic principles and commonly encountered issues in practice.
"Foundations of the Fen Dao sciences…"
A brief talk on sitting meditation and the ancient technique of forgetting oneself...
The origins of the Nine Palace Trigrams...
The significance of cultivating the three souls and seven spirits...
The elderly man spoke eloquently, but unfortunately, the dozens of students seated below paid little attention.
Most of these students were around eleven or twelve years old. They wore identical long robes. They were either whispering among themselves, or dozing off in boredom, with unread books lying on their desks.
