The title of a teacher is given based on the quality of their teaching and the seriousness of the students, granting varying rewards of experience.

However, the number of students will not significantly impact the reward, otherwise, one could simply boost their experience by increasing the number of students they teach.

Currently, the title of “Junior Teacher” has reached its full extent at the third level, with the monthly Master’s Day still ongoing, although the cultivation level of the gratitude has increased.

However, the cultivation level he can obtain from the students remains quite small.

The gap between the Golden Core Realm and Qi Refining Realm is as wide as that between an adult and an ant. To a Golden Core Real Person, a thousand Qi Refining disciples combined aren’t much of a challenge.

Every time the students express their gratitude, his panel would give out a reminder. Even when all 2000-plus Qi Refining disciples combined their monthly gratitude, it failed to budge his cultivation level by even a bit.

Lin Yi found this quite reasonable since he is at the Golden Core First Layer. If he were to extract too much, these Qi Refining disciples would easily notice.

As the saying goes, it takes ten years to grow a tree, but a hundred years to cultivate a person. Planting a tree is easy, but cultivating a person takes a significantly longer time.

Given that this is tied to the Junior Teacher title, it is now the time for initial educational investment. In the future, as these disciples elevate their realms through cultivation, the cultivation levels he can obtain will also increase.

More importantly, as long as he teaches a class to these disciples and establishes a teacher-student relationship, even if he leaves the Liu Yun Sect, they will continue to provide him with cultivation.

Therefore, the charateristics of the Teacher title means it cannot be the main source of cultivation. This is why he only spends two or three days a month on classes.

Besides offering free courses at Golden Sword Peak, Lin Yi started setting an entrance barrier for the paid courses in the Lecture Hall.

Because even if he accepted tens of thousands of Inner Sect Qi Refining disciples, they might only bring him a few points of cultivation a month. It would be better for him to attend another lesson with Pill Immortal Master instead.

Since the goal is to cultivate talents, it’s only natural to look for diligent and gifted students.

In this way, he might foster an Immortal Emperor or someone of the kind, and the returns he gets would also be higher.

He isn’t the kind of person who enrolls even the most delinquent students into his class. If they’re not serious about learning, he won’t accept them, even if they have a Supreme-grade Spirit Root.

After ten days, a new month has begun, and Lin Yi’s second free lecture on Golden Sword Peak officially started.

At the entrance of the Golden Sword Peak lecture hall, there are several long queues, making the scene very lively. There were about eight or nine hundred people, some of them being Foundation Building cultivators.

Zhou Yun Feng, Qi Jing Yu, and some other older acquaintance disciples also came to join in.

On the occasion of Lin Yi’s previous lecture, they had also come to the venue, but none of them had stayed for the full twelve hours. The one who stayed the longest only last a few hours.

When the class time arrived, Lin Yi slowly walked over from the side of the venue. Looking at the nearly 900 students in front of him, he showed a smile on his face, lightly tapping on the podium.

Suddenly, the whole venue turned silent as these Qi Refining disciples naturally dared not ignore the movements of a Foundation Building cultivator.

“Before the class begins, I need to clarify an issue. Recently, the number of rumors about my Lectures circulating in our Sect has been increasing.”

“Some disciples claim that attending my lectures can increase their intelligence and cultivation perception, while others say that they didn’t experience such effects after attending my classes.”

“There are even suspicions that those disciples spreading the ‘attending my lecture can increase perception’ rumor were hired by me using Spirit Stones to attract more students to purchase my classes.”

“I must clarify that, although there is some correlation between my teaching and increasing perception, it’s primarily the result of your diligent studying.”

“If I could easily increase perception, I would have already improved my spiritual root to a Supreme-grade one, and not remain at a Lower-grade Spiritual Root…”

Upon hearing Lin Yi’s words, the crowd burst out laughing.

However, many students who had seriously studied the previous lecture felt that their increased perception was largely due to Elder Uncle Lin Yi’s teaching rather than their own hard work.

They had also studied hard before and attended many lectures but none had made a significant impact like Elder Uncle Lin Yi’s teachings. In their eyes, Uncle Master Lin was undoubtedly an excellent lecturer.

Then, Lin Yi indifferently said, “Those who claim that my courses were ineffective can deep down reflect on whether they seriously studied during the classes.”

“Furthermore, I will set certain conditions for future Lecture Hall credit classes. Only those who meet the requirements can use their credits to purchase my classes.”

“I won’t accept any more disciples without restriction. This way, I can better instruct those disciple who truly wish to learn while also preventing others from spreading more rumors.”

“For the free lectures courses at Golden Sword Peak, I plan to use the same method. Anyone who does not seriously study more than two of my classes will in future be refused from participating in my pedestal lectures.”

What he wants to improve are those hardworking disciples of Golden Sword Peak, not those who merely come to mess around.

Listening to Lin Yi’s words, Zhou Yun Feng couldn’t help but nod. This Junior Disciple’s handling of the situation was quite right.

The instruction is only intended for those who are serious about learning. Those who are just there to play around, flaunt their cultivation levels and status, or associate with other disciples, should not come here to learn.
