The old man didn’t know what to say.
All words failed him. Feng Wu had really memorized everything, like she said, and she was reciting the text so fluently. She didn’t stop once to try and recall a word.
Chaoge wasn’t all that surprised. Growing up with Feng Wu, she had gotten used to such wonders at an early age.
A belief took root in her mind when she was little, and it could now no longer be shaken. That belief was: Feng Wu was omnipotent.
But Grand Secretary Fang didn’t know that. He was astonished by how exceptionally retentive Feng Wu’s memory was.
As the general secretary of the empire, and working in a place like Imperial College where all kinds of talented people showed up all the time, he had seen his fair share of genius.
However —
He didn’t want to give in yet. Was it possible that the first book in the stack was the one she had memorized the best?
Grand Secretary Fang picked a random book from the stack, opened it, and chose a random paragraph. “Kunlun is located in the northwest, where the empire’s temporal palace stands.”
Feng Wu’s eyes lit up.
The previous one was the “Book of Changes” and this one was the “Classic of Mountains and Rivers.”
Feng Wu searched her memory and the sentences after that flowed out. “… Kunlun has a circumference of 800 li and is very high and steep. A tree grows on it, which is over 13m tall and so thick that five people can just get their arms around it. Nine wells are…”
Feng Wu’s recitation was rhythmic and fluent.
It was impeccable.
Grand Secretary Fang chose several other books and tested Feng Wu on every single one of them. Only then was he forced to admit that Feng Wu had indeed memorized everything well!
“You…” Grand Secretary Fang’s lips quivered a little. “You really haven’t read any of these books before?”
Feng Wu shrugged. “In the paper yesterday was the sentence ‘When all eight musical instruments are in harmony and the right order, gods and humans alike will be in harmony as well.’ If I had read those books before, I would have been able to answer those questions.”
Feng Wu had never read books on these subjects before, and everything she knew was related to cultivation. There was a blank in her knowledge and she was just starting to fill it in.
Grand Secretary Fang agreed.Read more chapter on NovelFull
“You really are an amazing kid.” Grand Secretary Fang, who had always been stingy with his compliments, couldn’t help but be amazed now.
He then asked Feng Wu if she had any paragraph that she didn’t understand, which he then explained, making sure that she had a thorough understanding of it.
While the old man and the teenage girl were absorbed in learning, Chaoge was yawning in boredom.
Feng Wu didn’t know what to do. She took out a manual called “Chaoge Sword” and gave it to her friend. “There, try this.”
She had created this manual last night, which was the most suitable for Chaoge at her current cultivation level.
“Wait, let me see that —” Grand Secretary Fang reached out with his hand.
And the booklet ended up in his hand.
Grand Secretary Fang began to flip through it. He only nodded appreciatively in the beginning, but soon, his eyes widened and he looked up at Feng Wu. “Where did you get this?”
Chaoge moved closer. “Why, it’s called Chaoge Sword, so it had to have been customized for me. Mm, it’s my own and I’m going to learn it!”
Feng Wu said grumpily, “I made it for you last night after I finished reciting the books. Of course it’s specially made for you. I even named it after you.”
“Wow, Xiao Wu, you’re the best! I love you so much!” Chaoge threw her arms around Feng Wu and wouldn’t let go.
Feng Wu patted her on the shoulder. “Shouldn’t you be practicing now?”
“Yes! Of course!” Chaoge snatched the manual back from Grand Secretary Fang and ran off.
The old man didn’t know what to say.
