Hao Jianhua felt bad all over, and thought to himself: You have already made such a big fuss by "cultivating immortality" by yourself. This is not the end. Do you want to bring other students with you?
Just look at the current online public opinion.
He could already predict...
If you really agree to start this society.
The evaluation of Imperial University on the Internet is definitely negative, and Imperial University will be ridiculed by other universities across the country, especially its archrival Huaqing University.
Completely reduced to a laughing stock!
This is not possible!
Hao Jianhua did not want the century-old Imperial University to suffer a heavy blow in terms of its reputation.
However, he just said something like "freedom of speech, don't take it to heart" to comfort Lin Beichen. He couldn't tell what he really thought in his heart.
Wait until this time passes...
Talk to him again.
Hao Jianhua smiled and said: "Classmate Lin Beichen, your idea is very good, but the founding of this club is a very serious matter. I will think about it again."
He really needed to think it over again.
If this decision is not made well...
That's really going to happen.
Seeing the public opinions on the Internet, Lin Beichen had long expected that it would not be easy to start his own club, and he did not expect that he would be able to apply to the principal and get approval right now.
But since there is no refusal, it is good, and it seems that the principal will agree.
Lin Beichen knew how to advance and retreat, and did not get entangled. He stood up and said with a smile, "Okay, principal, I won't disturb you for now."
After saying that, he walked to the door of the office.
The moment the door is opened.
An old man stood outside the door with a surprised expression on his face. He raised his hand and made a knocking motion.
This old man is lean, energetic, and kind-hearted.
And he...
It was the old man who took his granddaughter with him in Shangqing Ancient Town and Longhu Mountain, Mr. Cai.
Eyes facing each other.
Lin Beichen was stunned for a moment, then turned his whole body to the side, nodded slightly towards him, indicating that he would invite him first.
Mr. Cai walked into the office with a smile. Lin Beichen passed him and closed the door.
"Click——"
Hao Jianhua had already come up to him, holding one of the old man's hands with both hands, and said respectfully: "Teacher, why are you here?"
"What, I can't come?"
Mr. Cai joked.
He is Hao Jianhua's mentor, and he also has another identity - Cai Peiyuan, the former president of Imperial University.
"Yes, yes, yes, that's great."
Hao Jianhua seemed like a child in front of Cai Peiyuan, and there was no trace of the principal's aura in front of others.
"I wish you could come every day."
"Come on, my old arms and legs can't stand this."
Cai Peiyuan smiled, and then explained: "I saw the hot search on the Internet, and I happened to be doing something near Teito University today, so I stopped by your place to take a look."
"Teacher, this matter..."
"What do you think the problem is?"
Before Hao Jianhua could say anything, Cai Peiyuan asked him a question.
Hao Jianhua sighed: "The problem lies with me. I shouldn't have let reporter Hu interview classmate Lin Beichen."
"Doesn't that mean the problem lies with Reporter Hu?"
"this……"
"Actually, it's not whose problem it is."
Cai Peiyuan smiled kindly and explained: "It is a problem of social atmosphere. It is too impetuous and noisy. The slightest disturbance can set off a prairie fire. It is really unreasonable. Imperial University is in the society, and it is even more difficult to deal with it." In the center of society, we may not be able to change the entire social atmosphere, but at least we must be able to emerge from the mud and remain untainted, and become a pure land in the noisy and impetuous world.”
"Teacher, I understand."
Hao Jianhua bowed to Cai Peiyuan sincerely.
All the questions that had troubled him due to hot searches on the Internet disappeared with Cai Peiyuan's words.
The question has no answer, but the question itself is no longer a question!
"Children can be taught."
Cai Peiyuan patted his shoulder, then thought of something and asked, "When I came here just now, I saw classmate Lin Beichen going out. Why did he come to you?"
"Oh, that's it, teacher, classmate Lin Beichen wants to start a club for cultivating immortals."
"The Immortal Cultivation Society?"
Cai Peiyuan's mind instantly flashed to Lin Beichen's independent figure when he was observing the scenery on the Longhu Mountain Observation Deck. He thought of the comments made by Master Guan Tianshi from the Tianshi Mansion. He felt dazed and said subconsciously: "That's true. good."
Before Cai Peiyuan solved his doubts.
Hao Jianhua must have been completely confused when he heard what he said, but now, he can understand it.
It doesn't matter what the world thinks.
After Hao Jianhua figured this out, he no longer had any doubts about Lin Beichen's founding of the association. He nodded and agreed, "Yes, I think it's good too."
…
…
After Lin Beichen left the principal, he returned to the empty dormitory and carried his thunderbolt to the gymnasium.
At this time, the people gathered outside the stadium did not leave because he had been away for a while, but instead became more and more numerous.
"He's back. Look, he's back again."
"I also brought something back."
"Did you go out just to get what he was holding?"
"..."
The originally quiet surroundings were suddenly filled with chatter.
Lin Beichen didn't care about this, and went directly into the gymnasium, took out the lightning strike wood from the canvas and put it on the ground, then sat down cross-legged and started practicing.
"I started meditating again. Is this cultivation of immortality just meditating?"
"Huh? What is that?"
"It looks like a big piece of charcoal."
"Are there still sprouts on your charcoal?"
"Huh? There are sprouts on the charcoal? Isn't this the wood struck by lightning?"
"Thunder struck wood? Is this really possible?"
"..."
The lightning struck wood attracted the attention of everyone outside the gymnasium.
The voices of discussion are getting louder and louder.
It even made the entire gymnasium buzz, as if there were countless flies flying.
Lin Beichen, who was immersed in cultivation, seemed to have his own shielding barrier and was not disturbed at all.
Practice on your own.
He practiced until the sun set and the moon hung high in the night sky. He realized that he had practiced to the point where he could no longer practice today. Only then did he come back from the immersion. The noisy discussions outside the gym finally reached his ears. .
"I'm numb. I've been watching it for almost a day. I just saw Lin Beichen meditating here for a whole day."
"Lin Beichen didn't do anything this day, he just meditated here. Is this how to cultivate immortality?"
"What a waste of time."
"Does Lin Beichen have no real ability at all?"
"I feel the same way. The bullshit must have been blown out, but I don't know how it will end. Seeing that there are so many of us watching here, it's just a mystery."
"I don't think that piece of broken wood he got from somewhere is not a piece of lightning-struck wood. It's probably just a prop for him to show off."
"It's boring."
"..."
Regarding these questions from the audience.
Lin Beichen laughed it off without any fluctuation in his heart.
Just as he was about to leave the gym.
Sudden!
The phone rang.
“Dingle bell…Dingle bell…”
It's the principal.
Lin Beichen looked at the time. It was past seven o'clock in the evening. Why was the principal calling him so late?
With doubts.
He answered the phone.
"Hey, principal, you're looking for me."
"Classmate Lin Beichen, you came to me this afternoon and told me about starting this immortality club. I have thought about it and agreed. It has been entered into the school club list for you."
Hao Jianhua had already dealt with this matter a few hours ago. However, he chatted and drank tea with Cai Peiyuan and walked around the campus. He had just sent Cai Peiyuan home safely, so he had time to talk to Lin Beichen. Say it.
Lin Beichen:?
Do you agree?
Do you have your own club?
He was overjoyed and said quickly: "Thank you, principal!"
hang up the phone.
The outside of the gymnasium was filled with students.
Lin Beichen's eyes lit up, he thought of something, and walked out of the gymnasium holding the thunderbolt.
The chatter outside the stadium suddenly became quieter.
Everyone looked at him.
Under their suspicious gazes.
Lin Beichen said loudly: "Dear classmates and seniors, just now, the society I applied to found was approved, and the Immortal Cultivation Research Association was officially established!"
Everyone:? ? ?
Society?
Immortal Cultivation Research Association? ?
For a moment, they felt that their CPU was about to burn out. Could such a society still be approved to be established?
It's really a knife to pull the butt, it opened my eyes!
Don't wait for their reaction.
Lin Beichen then continued: "The Association for Cultivation of Immortality is now recruiting new members. Anyone who is interested or wants to study Cultivation of Immortality can go to the campus to register online. Tomorrow at seven o'clock in the morning, I will teach you how to cultivate Immortality in this gymnasium! "
After saying that, he left without saying that he wanted everyone to help convey more.
He believes that with his current popularity, he will soon be known to everyone.
And everything was just as he expected.
No more than a few minutes.
The Teito University forum is full of posts about this matter.
【Big news! Lin Beichen actually founded a society called the Immortal Cultivation Research Association, and it is recruiting new members right now! 】
[Live video of Lin Beichen announcing the establishment of the Immortal Cultivation Club! 】
[Shocked to all three eyes, there is actually a club for cultivating immortals. It’s really amazing for my emperor! 】
[Xianxian Club...How could the school agree to the establishment of such a club? I am not Sister Li. 】
[Is Teito University the only university in the country that has a cultivating society? I just ask, who else? 】
[I heard that Lin Beichen has joined the Immortal Cultivation Research Association, which is recruiting new members. Does anyone want to sign up? It seems that the teaching of cultivating immortals will start tomorrow morning. 】
【……】
After being fermented in Teito University’s post bar, the incident quickly spread on major social platforms.
on Weibo.
A topic like #皇都大学林北陈修仙社# quickly rushed to the hot search list, and its popularity continued to soar, and its ranking on the hot search list also continued to rise.
Click on the topic.
The content inside can be described as rich and colorful.
There are screenshots of posts on the Teito University forum, videos of Lin Beichen preaching in front of the gymnasium, screenshots of the club list on the Teito University campus website, and the Immortal Cultivation Research Association founded by Lin Beichen is also specially marked... and so on!
"No, no, Imperial City University is from the University of Portland, and it's even approved by the special Immortal Cultivation Society?"
"Damn it, this is the first time I regret not studying hard and not going to university so that I can qualify to sign up for this club. I'm so curious about the core of this club, hahahaha!"
"Awesome, the Immortal Cultivation Club has been punished. Isn't this just a joke?"
"Is there any good brother from Imperial University who can sign up? I'll record a video tomorrow and let me see what the Immortal Cultivation Institute teaches."
"The Immortal Cultivation Club? You're laughing so hard. Imperial University is really a joke now. Huaqing University next door can wake you up laughing even if you dream in the middle of the night!"
"I'm laughing so hard, my family, who knows? The Imperial University, the highest university in China, actually has a society for cultivating immortals. Isn't this equivalent to adding a feudal superstition category to the Nobel Prize?"
"..."
Just as Hao Jianhua worried and expected at the beginning.
The comments on this matter on the Internet are all negative comments, denying, criticizing, questioning, and making fun of it.
And the initiator of this impact.
Lin Beichen was in the dormitory, sitting in front of the computer, sorting out the registration form.
At this time, there was a burst of messy and rapid footsteps.
The roommates who had finished their evening classes rushed into the dormitory.
Han Yuan came close to Lin Beichen and tutted: "Beichen, Beichen, did you not read the comments on the Internet, or is your psychological quality so strong? I thought you were just pretending to be strong when I called you. How could I possibly think that you are really okay and you founded a club for cultivating immortals?!"
Lin Beichen said nonchalantly: "Those people on the Internet have nothing to do with me, they just talk about theirs."
"ox!"
Han Yuan gave a thumbs up, and then joked: "However, I think your Immortal Cultivation Club is a bit hasty. Except for the brothers who can support you a little, how can anyone sign up?"
"..."
Lin Beichen looked at him with an expression like he was looking at a clown, then pointed at the computer screen and said, "See for yourself."
As he spoke, he moved the mouse scroll wheel.
On the computer screen are lines of personal information, name, student number, major, etc.
Han Yuan was dumbfounded and asked in disbelief: "These...are these all people who signed up for your immortal cultivation club?"
"Um."
Lin Beichen nodded and said, "Nearly eighty people have signed up."
Many of these people are onlookers who have been squatting in the gymnasium for a whole day. They have been observing for a whole day but can't see anything. They want to sign up and take a good look at what medicines Lin Beichen sells tomorrow. It will not be in vain today. A hard day's work.
Others are just curious about how to teach immortality.
More and more people are signing up...
Steady growth!
Early the next morning.
Lin Beichen came to the gymnasium with the thunderbolt in his arms.
Although there are still more than ten minutes before the seven o'clock promised last night, twenty or thirty people have already arrived at the entrance of the gymnasium.
"I'm coming."
"Look, Lin Beichen is here."
"..."
In the chatter of exchanges.
Lin Beichen invited them into the gymnasium.
More than ten minutes passed, and the time came to seven o'clock. During this period, about ten more people came one after another.
At this moment, there were almost fifty people sitting in the gymnasium.
The gymnasium that looked empty yesterday seemed a lot more crowded.
Lin Beichen glanced at the number of people and was a little surprised.
The number of people who signed up to join the club was less than 200.
Considering that there will definitely be some people who are hot-headed and just sign up, but they are not actually here to participate in club activities, and some people will go to classes.
He thought that only a dozen people would come in the end.
"Nice to meet you all."
Lin Beichen said hello, and then said: "Everyone who comes here so early in the morning, I believe you must want to see what I teach about cultivating immortals, right?"
"right!"
Everyone laughed and responded in unison.
Lin Beichen nodded and said, "In that case, I won't talk nonsense. I'll start teaching you when I'm ready."
With that said, he held the lightning strike wood and came to the middle of the crowd.
In order to let them feel the electric element better, he specially brought lightning strike wood.
At this time, a question came from the crowd: "Classmate Lin, oh, no, it's the president. Is this the legendary lightning-struck wood?"
Hearing this, the others also pricked up their ears. Yesterday, they were curious when they saw this dark lump, and they discussed it for a long time without coming up with a reason.
Lin Beichen put the lightning strike wood on the ground, then walked and said, "Yes, this is the lightning strike wood."
Hear him say that.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the lightning strike wood.
“It’s really like lightning struck a tree!”
"It's the first time I've seen it. It's almost the same as the lightning struck Mu Zhen described in the rumors."
"..."
At this time, another voice sounded from the chattering discussion: "President, what is the use of this lightning strike?"
"It will be helpful for your next cultivation of immortality."
Lin Beichen didn't say it in detail, and even if he did, they couldn't understand it. It was a waste of time.
After saying that, he raised his hand and pressed it, indicating that everyone should be quiet, and then said: "Okay, then I will teach you the first step in cultivating immortals, visualization. What visualization is, is to try your best to imagine that there is an inexplicable force. The energy appears in your body..."
On one side, Lin Beichen was talking about some of the essentials and experiences he had gained in understanding the state of visualization, and on the other side, others began to follow suit in a decent manner.
Soon, everyone began to try hard to visualize, and Lin Beichen himself also entered the state of practicing thunder.
One minute……
Two minutes...
…
Time passes minute by minute.
I don’t know how long it took.
Soon, some people couldn't take it anymore.
"What? I can't feel anything."
"That's right, who can't imagine it? I can imagine it, but I can't feel anything physically. Isn't this just fooling people?"
"I asked him why he is always meditating, just sitting and thinking?"
"I'm so speechless. If I had known I was just sitting here thinking nonsense, I might as well have slept in!"
"OK, I'm sure, this damn cultivator is just trying to fool people."
"..."
Dissatisfied and disappointed voices sounded one after another.
They just want to be fresh and curious.
At this moment, the freshness and curiosity have been worn away by time...
One after another they left the gym.
Lin Beichen, who was practicing, knew what was happening in the venue, but he did not interfere.
Those who leave are either because their minds are unstable and they leave even when others leave, or because they have insufficient wisdom and regard contemplation as visualization.
Nothing will come of it if you stay.
The longer time goes by, the more people leave.
Of course, it wasn't just those who left. During this period, members continued to enter the gymnasium. Some came right after class, and some were really bored and signed up again, so they came over to take a look.
In and out...
Lin Beichen was not affected at all. He did his own thing step by step, practiced, and then talked about visualization to the new members during each round of practice, and answered questions for the members who had not left yet.
Repeatedly...
Repeated from early morning till night.
Apart from Lin Beichen, there are three people in the gym who have not left and have persisted until now. Although they have been sitting here for a day and thinking about it, they have not felt anything.
Lin Beichen took a look at the time and saw that it was already late, so he said to them: "Okay, let's get here today. Cultivation does not happen overnight. You can calm down and maybe one day you will suddenly realize it."
Send them away.
He cleaned the gymnasium.
Just when he was about to leave.
The phone rang.
“Dingle bell…Dingle bell…”
Lin Beichen glanced at the phone screen, it was my mother!
He picked up the phone without thinking twice.
"Hey, Mom."
"I'm not your mother, classmate Lin Beichen."
A hoarse laugh came from the phone, like sandpaper rubbing against the ground, which made people feel extremely uncomfortable. Then the voice continued: "But your parents are in my hands."
