Picking Up Supreme Treasures in the Dream Realm-Chapter 743 - 416. I stand on the shoulders of greatness, Overlord Legion
"I know many of you want to come to Great Xia to study in the future, but there’s an important prerequisite, which is passing the Level 4 and Level 6 Xia Language exams.
"The maximum score for these two exams is 450. If you don’t get at least 350 for Level 4 and 300 for Level 6, almost no higher education institution in Great Xia will accept you.
"If you wish to seek a job at a Great Xia Corporation or even immigrate to Great Xia, these two exams are unavoidable hurdles."
At 9 a.m. Great Xia Time, Meng Xiaochuan began his morning class.
Upon hearing "Xia Language Level 4 and Level 6 exams," most of the 60 New Zealander students in the online class displayed expressions of headache.
Nowadays, as Great Xia’s influence steadily increases, the Xia Language Level 4 and Level 6 exams are becoming known worldwide.
Especially a few months ago, the Great Xia Immigration Headquarters officially issued a new set of rules—national integration points.
To obtain a Great Xia National ID, your integration points must surpass a baseline; otherwise, you won’t even qualify to apply.
And the Level 4 and Level 6 Xia Language exams are two of the bonus point items therein.
"In the Level 4 Xia Language exam, there will definitely be questions related to Great Xia’s ancient poetry, usually in the form of image recognition questions, where there’s a picture on the paper, and you have to write a poem based on the meaning of the image.
"In the Level 6 Xia Language exam, the requirements become higher, and your levels are still far from enough, so I won’t elaborate here."
As Meng Xiaochuan casually chatted, he stepped down the stairs and walked out the apartment building’s door with a camera in hand.
He did this naturally to counter foreign media slander.
Many media outlets claimed that Great Xia concealed the real numbers, and the death toll in Xiumei City should have reached six figures.
Great Xia has had a frost disaster, yet I dare to teach outdoors; how could Great Xia have tens of thousands of deaths?
Ridiculous!
Meng Xiaochuan pointed the camera at an ice forest next to the community, continuing, "For example, if this picture appears on the exam paper, which ancient Great Xia poem comes to mind for you?"
In previous classes, he had taught these New Zealanders over a dozen ancient Great Xia poems, so this question didn’t count as "off-topic."
Zhang Tiantian was the first to answer, "I think of a line, ’A thousand mountains with no birds in flight, ten thousand paths without a trace of man.’"
Meng Xiaochuan nodded, "Very good! This line of ancient poetry can earn full marks."
He further praised, "I can tell that Zhang Tiantian frequently recites ancient poetry in her spare time; this is the correct way to learn ancient poetry."
Half an hour later.
While teaching in his bedroom, Meng Xiaochuan received a message: "Bro, the footage of you braving the frost disaster to teach has gone viral on external networks."
This was from a colleague.
He was dumbfounded for a moment.
Meng Xiaochuan found a video to show the students and started searching for news on external websites.
He discovered his colleague was right; all news reporting "Great Xia frost disaster death toll fabrication" featured comments with his image of "teaching amidst the frost disaster."
His teaching video was also spreading far and wide.
Very clearly.
Foreigners aren’t foolish; once they see this picture, they won’t believe the media’s reports anymore.
If Great Xia really had so many people frozen to death, how could this Great Xia teacher be lecturing outside?
Meng Xiaochuan closed the webpage, suddenly feeling an incredibly unreal sensation.
Have I become famous just like that?
After the first class ended, he immediately learned the benefits of fame.
The Tianfu Province Education Bureau contacted him, briefly inquiring about the situation, and stated he would be included in this quarter’s list of outstanding teachers. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
After the second class started.
Meng Xiaochuan had only taught for a few minutes when his wristband suddenly emitted a rapid "beep beep" sound.
The students, hearing this sound, all looked at him curiously.
Meng Xiaochuan calmly said, "This is an official danger alert."
The students were amazed.
Meng Xiaochuan explained, "You should know that terrifying monsters are born in frost disaster zones.
"Yesterday, a dreadful Corpse Control Monster appeared in Guangren City, Dongli Kingdom, and the Carmenia Federation’s military was attacked by monsters, with many dead."
He raised his wristband: "The official just issued an emergency notice that a Corpse Control Monster has appeared in this community as well.
"Next, I plan to stop the class and live stream from the balcony, hoping to have the chance to show you the official footage of clearing the Corpse Control Monster."
Some students tried to dissuade him from such perilous behavior.
"Teacher Meng, this is too dangerous!"
"Teacher Meng, you should hide quickly."
But Meng Xiaochuan boldly walked toward the balcony, still smiling, "You should all know the fourth of the Six Paths of Canglan, the Azure Lotus path, right?"
Ignoring their dissuasion, he continued, "When Mr. Ghost and Mr. Spirit Crows established the Azure Lotus path, they intentionally infused it with the poetic mood of Great Xia’s poet, Qinglian Scholar.
"Among the numerous timeless poems left by Qinglian Scholar, the most notable characteristic is an unparalleled sense of exuberance and transcendent boldness.
"The most classic line is, ’Do you not see the waters of the Yellow River come from the sky, flowing to the sea never to return?’ Thoroughly understanding the essence within greatly assists the cultivation of the Azure Lotus path.
"So I am contemplating a question now: there’s a saying ’knowledge and action are one,’ if your actions are always cautious, lacking the courage to face danger head-on, how can you truly understand the boldness of the Azure Lotus path?
"I sometimes cannot help but imagine, facing innumerable trials and tribulations, what kind of fearlessness Mr. Ghost and Mr. Spirit Crows held, with which they used their own hands to forge a sky for Great Xia."
