I Have a Dice Left by a God-Chapter 320 - 187: The Debate

Behind the curtain, the people inside became suddenly excited. It was indeed the great scholar who proposed the truth that productivity determines the relations of production. They finally managed to invite him. It was said that this person must be in Hedan.

"I used some old tricks to deceive the Princess. Outside, there are all students from the Celestial Principle School; they hope to gain some insight. I hope that Mr. Li will not mind my small selfish motive. If I hadn’t known your unique identity, I would have tried my best to bring you into our Celestial Principle School," Vladimir said somewhat regretfully while looking at Li Xin. There were many strong forces of causality on him, one of which was completely beyond Vladimir’s comprehension. "No matter what, the door of the Celestial Principle School is always open to you, this kindness is etched in my heart."

Li Xin guessed that the other was referring to his identity as the Night Patrol. The Night Patrol was nothing significant—Vladimir thought of him as a person of the Moon God. In the world’s conventional thinking, someone in his situation couldn’t possibly join the Celestial Principle School. However, what Li Xin was actually thinking was that this matter wasn’t impossible to discuss.

But Vladimir didn’t continue, and Li Xin didn’t force the issue. He sat opposite Vladimir and pointed to the curtain. "Grand Scholar, there’s no need for this thing. I’m not someone who can’t be seen. I just feared losing face before, but now that I’m here, I won’t think too much about it. I don’t think everyone will laugh at me."

James promptly had the curtain removed. People on the other side were extremely curious, listening to the exchanges between the two. They all longed to see the master’s style. When the curtain was removed, everyone was dumbfounded, staring at the young man sitting opposite Grandmaster Vladimir... a Beijing native?

What the heck???

He seemed to be the youngest in the whole room. Becoming an elite of the Celestial Principle School usually required being over twenty-five, and those who were particularly outstanding were in their forties or fifties. Where did this young boy come from?

Could this early meeting be an unconventional test?

The Celestial Principle School has many special challenges, focusing on challenging thought. However, since Grandmaster Vladimir rarely comes out, this possibility seemed unlikely. Could this be a swindler?

Externally, these theories had faded away, but within the Celestial Principle School, the research on Li Xin’s theories had reached its peak. The more they pondered, the more intriguing it became. The seemingly concise theory provided a direct interpretation of the composition of human society. This is an unbreakable natural law, and the phrase "view issues with a development perspective" is simply exquisite.

Even in the Celestial Principle School, a place of liberated thought, everyone’s eyes were filled with curiosity, doubt, and disbelief. The crowd, having grown quiet, still had eyes filled with questions and eagerness to try.

"Mr. Li’s ’Utopia Mountain’s Tale of Enmity and Friendship’ is very interesting, but it’s written a bit slowly," Vladimir said with a smile.

Another bombshell was dropped, finally stirring the hall into a frenzy. "Utopia Mountain’s Tale of Enmity and Friendship" was currently the hottest novel in Hedan and had already spread in other cities like Moncalleta. The price of second-hand Hex Bird Report weekly issues had doubled, and prices soared when transported to distant places. The further away, the more expensive. This situation was escalating, though the person involved was still oblivious.

The Celestial Principle School delves into all sorts of fields, including literature and art, which form the upper structure of humanity, a compulsory course. "Utopia Mountain’s Tale of Enmity and Friendship" has truly overturned their previous understanding of novels.

Almost everyone present had read it and realized that novels could be written in such a way—a person who could summarize society and understand and grasp human emotions.

Could it be that these two are actually the same person?

James and Kundra exchanged glances, this occurrence was truly beyond their awareness.

"Grand Scholar, I’ve already been writing as fast as I can," Li Xin said with a smile, realizing he couldn’t hide it any longer. With the massive sales of "Utopia Mountain’s Tale of Enmity and Friendship," this situation was bound to happen sooner or later. "I solemnly declare, I am the most diligent writer on Dao Yuan Continent."

"Haha, I have the privilege to urge the publication, no matter how fast it is, it will never seem fast. Why did you come up with the name Utopia Mountain?" Vladimir asked.

"That’s another story. There is a place called Utopia where people communicate heart to heart without any barriers, with fair laws. Everyone can attain genuine freedom and equality; it’s an ideal state. Utopia Mountain in ’Utopia Mountain’s Tale of Enmity and Friendship’ is actually a dreamland," Li Xin explained.

"Does this ideal state represent the beautiful aspirations of people, and at the same time is it a satire against those injustices on the continent?" Vladimir suddenly asked, "Such a place may require a strong enough productive force to establish; without sufficient material support, it’s hard to achieve."

Li Xin chuckled but didn’t respond, thinking to himself, this old fellow is remarkable.

In a place like the Celestial Principle School, brimming with reform fervor, there is intense interest in such ideal worlds. It was the first time hearing about it, but suddenly there was no more. Thinking about it, it was only natural; it would be a spoiler.

Li Xin just smiled, putting on a brave face, his mouth almost cramping from laughing, damn it. He only knew the name; he hadn’t actually read such books, and any more would be pushing it.

"Today is our institute’s morning meeting to discuss some events happening in the Kingdom. Would Mr. Li be interested in participating?" Vladimir asked. "At the Celestial Principle Institute, behind closed doors with royal privilege, we can speak freely with no reservations."

"Actually, I’ve been to several Canon Law Schools, long have I heard of the Celestial Principle Institute’s fame. I would be very pleased to discuss and share with everyone here," Li Xin said.

Now, everyone below was eager to try. In the Celestial Principle School, without debate, there is no truth, and all truths are debated out. Once started, identity doesn’t matter. Even facing Grandmaster Vladimir, there are quite a few who dare to speak frankly. This is the root of the Celestial Principle School, daring to challenge authority, and we’ll soon see what this ’master’ is truly made of.

Estella quietly sat at the side of the first row, calmly watching Mr. Gemini and her teacher speak frankly. Both were so humble. The young lady’s eyes were filled with anticipation, wondering what kind of sparks this morning meeting would ignite?

Grandmaster James cleared his throat a few times, drawing everyone’s attention to himself. "Everyone knows about the large-scale uprising of the Death Warriors in the east of the Black Meteor Empire. Recently, these rebels have coerced a large number of slaves and defeated the Black Meteor Empire’s Knight Order sent to suppress them. The rebel leader, known as the Undying King, tore a Battle Angel apart on the battlefield. Now, the Death Warriors’ morale is soaring. News just arrived yesterday; the Death Warriors have taken two great cities, freeing all the Death Warriors and slaves in the city and slaughtered the city in retaliation."

As James spoke, he swept his eyes over everyone. "Everyone, share your views on this uprising."
