It is not difficult to convince his mother to support his studies. Han Yun, who was born in a scholarly family, naturally knew the importance of studying. When Zhang Zhizhong came to visit his youngest son in the evening, he praised Zhang Zhiping's ideas and said that he would invite a good teacher for him, but he didn't know how great his son's ambition was.

The next day, Zhang Zhizhong soon invited a teacher back, which was Zhang Zhiping's eldest brother, Chen Boxian, the second brother's enlightenment teacher. Chen Boxian, whose courtesy name is Yuanshan, was not known as a great scholar, but he was also a famous teacher here. He had a lot of talents from his disciples. If he hadn't had a good friend with Zhang Zhizhong, he would have come to serve as an enlightenment teacher for a child. Even so, the two just agreed that he would come to the morning every morning and let Zhang Zhiping go to the school to study after three years.

However, this is exactly what Zhang Zhiping wants. Three years later, Zhang Zhiping asked to learn martial arts from Shili. Due to the existence of martial arts masters in this world, scholars do not despise martial arts. Zhang Zhizhong, a gentleman, was also the best in the Six Arts of the Gentleman, otherwise he would not have been able to go to Beijing to take the exam alone. Therefore, although Zhang Zhizhong asked Zhang Zhiping not to waste his studies, he also paid a lot of money to ask Shili to agree to teach his secrets of internal skills.

After some experiments, Zhang Zhiping found that although his memory has not reached the point where he can remember everything with a glance, he can barely memorize a book after reading it through. Moreover, he is still young now, and his memory will continue to improve as he gets older.

This provided great help to Zhang Zhiping to learn literature. In just one month, Zhang Zhiping learned all the common words in this world. Zhang Zhiping controlled it a little in order to avoid shocking the world, otherwise one week would be enough. This undoubtedly made Chen Yuanshan very happy, and he adjusted his teaching plan and began to teach Zhang Zhiping the classics, history, and sacred texts of this world to Zhang Zhiping.

Although Zhang Zhiping had not read many classics, history, philosophical scriptures in his previous life, he still knew some commonly used quotes and aphorisms. After some comparison, he found that although the meanings of the two worlds are somewhat different in writing, many philosophies can basically be communicated. In order to avoid any mistakes in the future, Zhang Zhiping corresponded them one by one so that he could better integrate into this world.

Compared with literature, what Zhang Zhiping is more interested in is undoubtedly the martial arts of this world. Thinking about his future singing, walking around the world with his sword, and being chivalrous and righteous. This is the dream of every young man in China! But what disappointed Zhang Zhiping was that Shi Li asked Zhang Zhiping to stand up from horse stance and exercise his body first to further learn his internal skills. In desperation, he could only comfort himself with a high building. Fortunately, Shi Li said that Zhang Zhiping has been rich in various exquisite ingredients since he was a child, and his body has a very good foundation. As long as he can keep up with tonics and exercise, his body will soon reach the standard of practicing internal skills.

Two years passed in a flash. During this period, Chen Yuanshan asked to memorize various classics first, lay a solid foundation, and then further explain the meaning. The teacher taught and explained the questions. Although Zhang Zhiping memorized many books, it would be far from being able to understand Zhang Zhiping. Chen Yuanshan is undoubtedly a good teacher in this regard. He taught according to his aptitude and laid the foundation for him based on Zhang Zhiping's characteristics of not forgetting it. Then, only Zhang Zhiping needs to constantly understand and ask him if he doesn't understand anything. This undoubtedly greatly accelerated Zhang Zhiping's learning speed and made Zhang Zhiping grateful to this teacher.

Zhang Zhiping's talent in martial arts was beyond Shi Li's expectations. He had practiced his body in just two years. Now Zhang Zhiping is only seven years old, and his strength is not inferior to that of an adult man. Shi Li suddenly knew that he had picked up a bargain, so he handed over his internal skills to Zhang Zhiping. Zhang Zhiping was overjoyed and immediately studied this internal skills.

Shili's internal skill is called Ningyuan Gong. According to Shili, this is a widely circulated technique in the Zhou Dynasty. Although it is incomparable to the techniques of those famous sects, it is superior to the comprehensive techniques. You can always practice the eight extraordinary meridians and the twelve serious meridians. Moreover, the internal strength extracted is extremely pure and can be easily converted into other techniques. However, the cultivation speed is extremely slow, and few people can practice to the peak realm.

As the saying goes, there is no separation between medicine and martial arts. Zhang Zhiping has learned basic meridian knowledge for two years, and Shi Li's personal guidance, and his understanding of the Ningyuan Jue is very thorough. However, whether one can develop internal strength is the key to whether a person can become a real warrior. Many people have been stuck at this step for decades, and can only practice some evil ways or inexperienced external skills in their entire lives. This is a martial arts qualification. Although Shi Li promised to ensure that Zhang Zhiping is absolutely fine, it still made Zhang Zhiping very worried. As a result, Zhang Zhiping couldn't calm down for three consecutive days, let alone extracting the first internal strength. This undoubtedly made Zhang Zhiping even more irritable. He was also absent-minded when eating at home, and was soon discovered by Zhang Zhizhong and Han Yun.

Zhang Zhizhong stopped Han Yun from asking questions on the spot. After dinner, he called Shi Li over to ask clearly the situation. After pondering for a little, he told Shi Li not to continue teaching. The next morning, Zhang Zhi called Zhang Zhiping to the study.

This was the first time Zhang Zhiping went to his father's study. He looked around and looked around. He was a little confused. He didn't know what Zhang Zhizhong asked him to come. After Zhang Zhizhong asked Zhang Zhiping to sit down, he kept handling official duties on the table and ignored Zhang Zhiping. After a while, Zhang Zhiping felt uncomfortable all over. He didn't know what his father wanted to leave him here. After a stick of incense, Zhang Zhiping couldn't help but say to Zhang Zhizhong: "My father, don't know what you meant to call me here?"

A trace of disappointment flashed in Zhang Zhizhong's eyes, and he raised his head and said to Zhang Zhiping: "It's only a stick of incense, which is shorter than I thought. It seems that you are studying for the sake of studying this period, which is still far from it!"

Zhang Zhiping was stunned when he heard this, but he was a human being for two years and soon figured out some meaning. He couldn't help but feel some touch in his heart, but he couldn't say it. At this time, Zhang Zhizhong began to mention: "As the saying goes, reading to nourish the spirit, you are just reading, but you still don't understand the purpose of reading!"

The purpose of reading? In the previous world, the purpose of reading was to gain knowledge. As the saying goes, learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and you will not be afraid of traveling all over the world, because these are extremely practical knowledge that can make you live a better life in society. However, the saying that reading and nourishing qi is rarely seen. At this time, Zhang Zhizhong continued: "In ancient times, I, Confucianism, said that farming is not as good as farming, machinery and craftsmanship, and law enforcement is not as good as the Law, but why can I stand out from the various schools of thought and annex the hundred schools of thought? That is because what I, Confucianism teaches is the principle of being a human being. As the saying goes, I am good at nourishing my grand spirit, reading and nourishing qi and understanding the truth, and the huge mountains collapse before the color remains unchanged. You can only wait for a stick of incense and can't calm down, so how can you do a good job?!"

Although he did not fully agree with Zhang Zhizhong's statement, the idea that reading in the previous world was equivalent to acquiring knowledge still deeply influenced Zhang Zhiping, but Zhang Zhiping still realized his problem. He was too impatient and had a hint of pride in his heart to travel through the world, which made it difficult for his soul to calm down, so it was naturally difficult to extract the internal force guided and condensed by his heart. Thinking of this, Zhang Zhiping couldn't help but look up and said to Zhang Zhizhong: "Father, I understand, I will go back to practice calligraphy now."

Zhang Zhizhong nodded with satisfaction when he heard this and said, "No, it's good, a child can teach you. Practicing calligraphy is a way to concentrate and calm your mind, but I hope you can read and cultivate your energy so that you can go further. Okay, go back and let me see your performance in a few days."
