The Celestial Principle Academy suddenly announced publicly that the first Essence Lecture by Principal Mordo would be held at the Quiet Canon Law School, shocking the entire Dragon Capital and its major Canon Law Schools. In Dragon Capital, Divine Revelation has always been the absolute forefront, hogging all the limelight, while the Phoenix Cry, Moon Shadow, Heavenly Fortune, Quiet, and Jingrong five Canon Law Schools have been discontent for quite a while. However, the elite status and resource superiority occupied by Divine Revelation are already established, not without challengers. Every year, there are attempts to challenge it, with rumors circulating about the alliance of the five Canon Law Schools. In the end, various plans fail in front of absolute power, with repeated victories cementing Divine Revelation Canon Law School’s current invincible status.

The more concentrated the resources and talent, the more established the situation becomes, and the harder it is to shake.

What does Celestial Principle mean?

In Dao Yuan, hidden paths are divided into two types: the concealed, niche grey paths and the broad avenues under the sunlight. Perhaps it’s unnecessary to elaborate on the niche paths, which mean challenge and difficulty due to dangers, resources, and limitations, while relying on the broad avenues. Essentially, the traditional broad avenues that can be popularized in Canon Law Schools do not change from Knightly Academy; they are the Knightly Path, fully aligned and widespread among the four hidden avenues and Canon Law Schools.

The emergence of Celestial Principle disrupts this situation, while Celestial Path is not merely a branch or evolution of the Knightly Path, but an entirely new path.

Celestial Principle’s limitations are similar to those of Law Enforcers and Knights, absolutely having the lowest requirements for talent and conditions in hidden paths currently known. It’s accessible to everyone, allowing anyone studying Celestial Principle to benefit, with the extent of benefits related to one’s own self. This is the fundamental reason why Celestial Principle Academy quickly developed in Hedan and expanded to other countries.

The Celestial Path focuses on self-cultivation and adhering to celestial principles from within, not outwardly, breaking the hidden paths’ barriers to ordinary people more thoroughly than Law Enforcers and Knights.

Celestial Principle has always been low-profile in Dragon Capital, yet it accumulated significant power concurrently. This lecture is not only a presentation; it is an opportunity for enlightenment enhancement for everyone studying celestial principles. Great enlightenment and minor enlightenment fall on individuals, especially ordinary people, representing rare opportunities as not everyone has as many opportunities as certain family heirs.

The anticipation from more people has turned into wish power, and the principals of each Canon Law School are well aware of this. Hence, they all vie for this opportunity, though choosing Divine Revelation is expected by everyone. Next, comes establishing relationships, seeking favors, hoping to secure placement for their best students during the lecture.

The negotiations were halfway through, gifts exchanged, and now Celestial Principle Academy switched to Quiet, a slap in the face indeed, for it’s the first such occurrence in the illustrious history of Divine Revelation.

Principal Chen’s face still carries a bewildered joy. Given his age and shrewdness, he wouldn’t show such emotions unless uncontrollable.

"Grand Scholar Anthony, they’ve been summoned, they’ll arrive shortly." Chen Rutang took out his treasured tea.

Anthony smiled gently, "Principal Chen, thank you for your generous support."

Chen Rutang’s smile was wide and youthful, "Celestial Principle Academy’s choice was discerning. Scholar Zhuang, voice any requests, we’ll deliver if possible, if not, we’ll find a way."

Celestial Principle Academy sent two people, one Hedan’e Two-star Grand Scholar Anthony, the other local representative Scholar Zhuang Zhidong.

Zhuang Zhidong smiled slightly, "Currently nothing needed, if future assistance arises, we won’t hold back. Principal Chen, within Dragon Capital’s six Canon Law Schools, Quiet is prominent in arts and principles. Any impressive students to introduce to us?"

"Haha, Quiet follows a comprehensive development path. The Knightly Path is only one among many. Arts and principles will increasingly hold greater importance. Many excellent students here, Bai Family’s Bai Peng, Zhuo Yan, as well as Suerte, are commendable. And indeed, to mention, Governor Luthor’s descendant is with us, showing wisdom beyond peers." Chen Rutang said.

Zhuang Zhidong and Anthony exchanged a look, "What’s his name?" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

"Lu Shuai, from Celestial Capital."

Anthony and Zhuang Zhidong nodded, Zhuang Zhidong smiled, "Governor Luthor’s descendant should surely be exceptional. Is there a student named Li Xin with you, who visited Hedan?"

A flash of surprise crossed Chen Rutang’s eyes, returning to normal quickly after a brief silence, he chuckled, "That’s confidential within the academy. Li Xin is our special recruit this year, indeed studied in Hedan. Quiet disregards status, focused on character and talent. How did you know?"

Anthony and Zhuang Zhidong suppressed their joy, despite prior investigation, confirming ensures no mishap lest Celestial Principle turns into Academy of Ridicule.

Anthony relaxed, his smile grew more natural, "Principal Chen’s disregard of convention is admirable. We should learn from you."

Unwilling to disclose further, Chen Rutang, a seasoned fox, deciphered the truth. Li Xin recently excelled in martial arts testing, he knew the potential was high, yet how it linked to Celestial Principle School. Though Moon God’s Court and Celestial Principle somewhat cooperate, the relationship isn’t that friendly.

Shortly, a knock sounded outside the lounge, an elegant mature woman entered, "Principal, Bai Peng and the others arrived."

"Let them in," Chen Rutang nodded.

Bai Peng and Lu Shuai led; Bai Peng a president, Lu Shuai, Governor’s descendant, first impression strong regardless of talent, followed by Suerte, Zhuo Yan, and Li Xin, who initially refused but Bai Peng insisted on dragging him along. Bai Peng genuinely believed Li Xin’s joining Quiet was beneficial, wishing him to shine, essential for leaving a favorable impression on Celestial Principle School.

As the five entered, Anthony controlled his excitement upon seeing Li Xin, while Chen Rutang, discerning as ever, smiled and stood introducing, "You’ve arrived, meet Grand Scholar Anthony and Scholar Zhuang."

The five greeted ceremoniously, Anthony rose instantly, Zhuang Zhidong likewise, "No need for such formality, please take seats."

"Grand Scholar, let them stand, seeking education, adhering to student protocol is reasonable," Chen Rutang said, "Announcing good news, Celestial Principle Academy decided Principal Mordo’s first lecture will be hosted at our Quiet Canon Law School."

Everyone couldn’t hide their excitement, "Grand Scholar Anthony, on behalf of Quiet’s students, I thank you for choosing us. We firmly believe Celestial Way is profound, aiding us continuously during learning, yet harbor many doubts and incomprehensions, causing sleepless nights. Quiet’s students will surely rejoice upon learning this news." Bai Peng expressed sincerely and eagerly, without arrogance or showboating.

Anthony reluctantly shifted his gaze from Li Xin, "It’s our Celestial Principle School’s honor too..."
