Chapter 2892 Teaching
The first lesson for a child growing up is to learn that everything has a price. Society is not home, and there are no parents to bear the price for you. When you enter society, you have to bear the price yourself, but don't feel that you can't bear it.
And Duran wants to tell young people that adults can do whatever they want, that is, they can jump left and right, leaving them dumbfounded.
Toph naturally has no way to pay any price, because she is only twelve years old, and theoretically all her belongings belong to her parents. Of course, the earth-controlling technique she learned from the groundhog belongs to her, but if she doesn't have the earth-controlling technique, she will have no foundation for her life.
"Can I owe it?" In order to be able to travel alone, facing the shameless Duran, Toph gave a condition, that is, owe it: "I will pay it back when I have money."
"Look at your ugly expression of primitive accumulation." Duran couldn't help but say: "Capitalists are like this, it's best to calculate wages once a year, and delay it as much as possible, and it's best not to pay wages."
Isn't primitive accumulation like this? If you don't have money, you have to owe it. Toph had no choice, so she had such an expression on her face. If Duran didn't agree, she would have nothing to do.
In fact, Duran agreed to Toph's travel. Only a lot of actual combat could continue to improve Toph's strength. He had already taught her everything he could. With her talent, it was only a matter of time before she could be on par with the gods. But Duran's character was to increase the difficulty for them, so that was called growth.
"Do you owe? That's fine." Duran said, "Then write an IOU, just write 100 million."
"100 million is 100 million." Toph didn't know that 100 million was almost equal to all her family's assets. But she didn't think it was difficult to make this money. She could earn hundreds of thousands by winning a game in the ring. At most, she could win a hundred or a thousand more times. Anyway, it was not difficult.
She wrote the IOU casually and regarded money as dirt. She even felt that Duran was making a fuss for 100 million by obstructing them in every way.
Duran took the IOU and said with a smile: "Congratulations on becoming a debt slave. Young people should work harder. I am optimistic about you."
Free, Toph felt that the sky was high and the earth was vast, and she set off immediately.
Because they had already witnessed Toph's strength in the ring, everyone had no problem now, but they were just curious about how Toph would educate the Avatar next.
As the first waterbending teacher of the Avatar and now also the sparring partner of the Avatar, Katara knew the character of the Avatar quite well. She knew that although this little bald head was kind, he needed encouragement and was easy to back down. He was worried about many things before he did them. If he didn't see the results in a short time, he would be discouraged, and gentle encouragement was needed at this time.
Ikari Shinji expressed his praise. They, the male protagonists, really needed the encouragement of lolita, queen, and beautiful girls, otherwise they would have no motivation.
For the distant and empty things like protecting the world, they couldn't cheer up.
Toph had her own way of education. She first had theory, and she directly taught the Avatar everything she learned from Duran.
This theory sounded normal to Toph, because she had not received any education in the art of bending before, but it sounded like a fairy tale to Avatar and Katara. But these were all taught by Duran, the man who resurrected the gods.
Indeed, Avatar was greatly inspired after hearing this and began to feel his chakra. Chakra is the fastest way to activate Avatar, but the disadvantage is that you have to forget about the world and not be attached to it.
In fact, there are many ways to activate Avatar, such as the physical method in the original book, which uses physical methods to impact the meridians and penetrate the energy.
There is also an emotional stimulation method, which is to directly start cheating once you encounter intense emotions, such as when your friends are in danger.
Of these two methods, the former is risky and the latter is difficult to control. Chakra practice is to integrate with the energy of the universe, which is controllable, safe, and can be achieved in a short period of time. Of course, once it is achieved, thoughts will be free, and any attachment to the world will turn into flowing water, and there will only be great love and no small love.
"The teacher's chakra practice is special. You don't have to forget the mortal world. You just need to constantly absorb cosmic energy to transform your body cells into a special state. In simple terms, it is to use the power of control on your body to transform the body into a god."
The three were stunned by Toph's high-end theory.
Sokka, a housework expert, said that this was really a crazy theory. He stared at the blind girl blankly, obviously unable to accept the theory of people turning into gods.
"Fire control is to control the plasma state of matter, water control can control the solid state of water, and gods are also a state. Since it is a state of matter, it can be controlled. It just requires a lot of energy. Through the coordination of power control and chakra, you can absorb cosmic energy and transform your body into the state of gods. Isn't this easy to understand? The existence of supernatural powers is evidence of the mutual communication between humans and gods."
Is it easy to understand?
"What state is the god?" Sokka asked. He didn't understand the plasma state, but only knew that water has three states: solid, liquid and gas.
"Bose Einstein condensate." In fact, Toph didn't understand it very well, but that's what the teacher taught, so just accept the setting.
Just like ordinary matter has three states: solid, liquid and gas. There is no reason. The universe works this way. So as long as we understand that we can exert the power of the gods in this state, it will be fine.
Everyone is just confused and feels that it is amazing.
The Avatar did feel his own improvement and the influence of the seven chakras on him. It seemed that he could sense the energy of the universe. There was another self in the vast starry sky, connected to him by a winding transparent road. He was a member of the universe and a branch of the cosmic energy.
Katara could actually feel this way after learning. Sokka was very depressed and felt that he could not fit in. In the past, he could understand only the art of bending, but now they were about to ascend to become gods, and he could not understand it at all. He couldn't help but think that if the other three people became Avatars, wouldn't he be very lonely?
But Sokka couldn't sense the energy of the universe, so he was even more depressed. In fact, he also wanted to become stronger, so he had been secretly training boomerangs, but unfortunately this combat power was not enough.
"In the past, there was only one Avatar, which was understandable. If all the art of bending masters can cultivate the realm of Avatars in the future, wouldn't it be that the art of bending dominates the world?" If it was just an ordinary art of bending, ordinary people would also have the strength to fight. Whether it was acupoints or art of bending, ordinary people could also fight. But no matter how strong ordinary people are, they can't beat the magic, and neither can the magician. It can be said that everyone is equal under the magic.
It's acceptable to have only one magic that has been passed down from generation to generation, but it's unbearable if there are a group of magic. Supporting one magic and supporting ten magics consumes ten times more resources. How can ordinary people and magicians afford such expenses?
If the support of magic appears to be partial to some, then the battle between magic and magic will begin. It's not the lack of it that is worrying, but the imbalance. Magic is also human, and there will be psychological imbalance and fighting. So one magic is okay, but ten magics can't be equal.
Although Soka doesn't know magic, his wisdom is excellent. He realized that too many magics are not a good thing, because many magics will inevitably determine the distribution relationship through war, and then ordinary people will be unlucky.
