Lan Ningshuang sensed his change in mood and asked with concern, “Young Master, don’t pay attention to what that person said. Studying is undoubtedly useful.

Qin Feng sighed deeply, “How many scholars can reach the level of the National Teacher of the Heavenly Monitoring Pavilion?”
Lan Ningshuang was at a loss for words, unsure of how to respond.
Qin Feng continued, “Practicing both martial arts and the Literature tradition requires a lot of time and money. Ningshuang, let me ask you, if ordinary people have such conditions, given the choice, which path would they choose for their children?”
Lan Ningshuang hesitated, then said, “Naturally, it would be…”
“No need to think too much, it would definitely be the martial arts tradition.
