3 days later, Fang Yuan claimed the 10 primeval stones and passed it off as being lucky. However, Mo Bei knew the truth.

In the afternoon, there were Martial arts classes where the martial arts were being taught.

"The foundation of martial arts is the most important among important things. Especially in the early stages of a Gu Master's cultivation, it is more important than anything else. All of you better focus your attention on me!"

The teacher started displaying his moves. These were all his valuable experiences that he got from sacrificing blood and tears, experience accumulated from long battles.

The classes went on for some while and then everyone returned to their home.

✵✵✵

Every week, each students would receive 3 primeval stones from the academy. This was the academy's weekly subsidy where every seven days allowance would be distributed. One could say it was financial aid for these young teens. After all with their capabilities, to feed and raise their own Gu was a lot of financial pressure.

"You must all remember, the Gu are just tools that we use. Cultivation is the foundation of us Gu Masters. The higher your rank, the stronger the Gu you are able to use. In the next three months, whoever can take the lead and promote to Rank one middle stage will receive a reward of thirty primeval stones. At the same time he will be able to choose the second Gu first for free. After three months, we will elect a class monitor and two vice-class monitors based on the results. The class monitor will enjoy a subsidy of ten primeval stones while the vice-class monitor will have an allowance of five pieces! Alright, that's all for today. You can all leave." The elder's words made the academy burst with noise.

Mo Bei heard this and recalled a scene from the novel. Fang Yuan was the first one to reach middle stage by using liquor worm. He also rejected the position of class Monitor so that he can continue exhorting classmates for primeval stones.

Just as Mo Bei was walking forward, he saw Fang Yuan leaning against the gateway of the academy.

For Fang Yuan, the so-called glory of the class monitor was just a valuable tool the upper levels used to motivate those below them. In the end, it was just a layer of illusionary glory, it was useless!

'So it begins' Mo Bei sneered in his mind as he stopped walking.

He recalled a quote from the novel which showed Fang Year's physiological viewpoint

[ "Whether it comes to a clan, sect or demonic group, whether it is this world or earth, all organizations are like this. The high and low positions are established, making the law of promotion clear, letting those in the organization climb up non-stop from the bottom. Because chasing after profit is the nature of humans, and positions of authority often make people have superiority, creating the illusion that oneself is living a more valuable life than others. Power is like the carrot dangling in front of a donkey. The desires of humans are stimulated by it, and each of them secure their personal gains with someone with authority for it. After climbing up one level, there will be a higher level. While they are busy currying favour for personal gain, their hard work is squeezed out from them and their value is exploited by the upper position. In every organization, as long as there is a chain of command, it is to give serve to those at the upper ranks. The so-called class monitor and vice-class monitor position is like the smallest carrot, luring everyone else into the structure of the clan. And to stop those below from realizing the truth, those at the higher positions integrate shared values, clear-cutting the idea of glory, meritorious deeds etc. The establishment of high and low positions are made along with unequal benefits. Sometimes the use of religion is done to dominate people's hearts. Many people in the world do not understand this. They foolishly work hard for others. And for every organization in the world, the most fundamental of its essence is just one thing, and that is – The redistribution of resources, where the higher the position the more resources they can enjoy. Thus any organization is just a representation, while the real basis is just one word – resources. Without food resources, one will die of starvation. Without water resources, one will die of thirst. Without cultivation resources, one will become weak and sooner or later, be bullied to death." ]

These words had deeply resonated with Mo Bei when he read the RI novel and this was one of the best quotes he had read which had given him a new perspective in his life. He understood the reasons behind his suffering on Earth and the motives behind those who bullied him back then. It was all for creating a hierarchy, making illusory layers between them, so they could get the most benefits.

Fang Yuan had long left the academy, and right now he stood at the gate entrance of the school. Seeing the first batch of students coming out gradually walking closer towards him, a smile appeared on his face.

Mo Bei was standing at the back and seeing everything with his own eyes. He was the person who most anticipated this part of the story.

"It's Fang Yuan."

"What's he doing at the middle of the gate entrance?"

"Hmph, every time I see his dead dysfunctional state, I feel so pissed off."

"Don't worry about him, he's probably waiting for someone."

The young teens paid no attention to him. Just as they were about to walk over, Fang Yuan strode across and blocked them. "I'm plundering. Everyone must surrender a piece of primeval stone before they can leave."
