Mythical Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1754: Chapter 1651: Li Youu Says All of This Is Worthy of Research

Sure, here’s the translation:

Although Spiritual Talent is the accumulation of one’s own knowledge, experience, cognition, and so on, is a pregnant mother considered one person or two? Cai Yan couldn’t help but feel a chill when she thought about this; it seems reasonable to say that Cai Zhenji giving birth to a child inherently possessing Spiritual Talent isn’t impossible!

If one’s Spiritual Talent doesn’t awaken, accumulating in a nascent state in consciousness, and inexplicably now having two consciousnesses, Cai Zhenji, are you defying the heavens!

”Reasonably speaking, not only is it not impossible, but it’s highly possible.” Cai Yan muttered for a long time before looking at her sister.

However, the more you think about it, the more terrifying it seems. If a woman possesses Spiritual Talent and her offspring also possess Spiritual Talent, then perhaps all the Great Aristocratic Families would flip the table. No matter how you say it, in this era, Spiritual Talent is equated with the top Civil Officials.

Without saying anything else, as long as one possesses Spiritual Talent, protecting a family name or an era presents no problem. After all, those who have Spiritual Talent are basically unlikely to court death, except because in pursuing one’s dreams or ideals, one’s life might end, but for the family, there is no harm.

Whether it’s Tian Feng’s family or Ju Shou’s family, even after their deaths, they still comfortably sit in the position of an Aristocratic Family. They chose to pursue their ideals but had wisdom enough to ensure that even after a failure, the family wouldn’t be implicated.

The benefits such a Sage brings to a family are truly immeasurable. If Cai Zhenji indeed births an offspring with Spiritual Talent, the Aristocratic Families Under Heaven would indeed explode; some kind of lineage that spans generations might truly be achieved.

Just imagining Zhuge Family constantly producing individuals like Zhuge Liang, which family could compete? Just the thought of this situation makes Cai Yan shiver, suddenly impulsively wanting Cai Zhenji to abandon this idea.

However, before Cai Yan could speak, Lady Tang replaced her, saying, ”You’re looking for trouble, aren’t you? You’re so clever at other times, why are you so foolish now!”

”You’re the foolish one. Don’t you want your child to be naturally incredibly intelligent?” Cai Zhenji retorted angrily.

”You call that intelligence?” Lady Tang argued back, ”You’re just looking for trouble, aren’t you? Have you considered how much trouble this will cause if your theory is true?”

”You’re overthinking; there are few women who can awaken Spiritual Talent, and even fewer at this particular time.” Cai Zhenji rolled her eyes and said.

”You’re mistaken, perhaps as long as there is a woman with Spiritual Talent, it will be like this.” Cai Yan said softly, ”Because inside the body, another consciousness has formed.”

Cai Zhenji was startled, her hand about to brush her hair paused, and after remaining silent for a while, said, ”Perhaps you’re right...”

”Do you understand what this means?” Cai Yan looked calmly at Cai Zhenji, and Cai Zhenji hesitated a bit. She is smart and naturally understands the trouble this might bring; perhaps for women with Spiritual Talent in the future, it would be both good and bad.

”I feel I need to consult with uncle, his understanding of Spiritual Talent is deeper than that of Physician Hua.” Cai Yan thought briefly and spoke, feeling it’s not that simple, even if inheritance is possible, mothers probably can’t endure multiple separations of Spiritual Talent.

After all, even if Spiritual Energy can recover, there is a limit to endurance; maybe the first few times would be fine, but once the limit is exceeded, trouble would occur.

Cai Zhenji nodded, the two looked at Lady Tang, who also nodded, but stood up to express her desire to retreat to the back hall, really not wanting to deal with Li Youu.

Cai Yan’s execution is not slow, she brought a team of city guards out of the city to the military camp to find Li Youu, who was at that time frantically training Iron Cavalry, preparing within three months to train the soldiers to execute commands reflexively.

The quality of these soldiers was quite good, their equestrian skills also very adept. Initially spending ten days, Li Youu had already made these people understand orders are orders, don’t ask why, just execute them, and then continued the training in the camp within a five-mile radius.

At first, combat power was not required, merely demanding that upon hearing an order, they execute it; hence various exhausting drills, every day leaving the soldiers so tired they didn’t even have the energy to curse, lazy even to talk while eating, just training, daily intensification.

Basically, training halts just before reaching internal bleeding from exhaustion, repeating day after day, nearly observing that when soldiers begin to have thoughts on other things and curse, and their complexion fluctuates, it indicated the possibility of intensifying the training, effectively tormenting this group of soldiers.

However, after such extensive preparation, it was evident there was a substantial improvement in physical quality, stamina, and willpower. Li Youu estimated that this bunch of fools would continuously intensify training until a month passed with no thought of cursing or talking, where they would drop to sleep after training each day, then he would move to the next phase of training.

After all, having spent a consecutive month like this indicated that physical quality, stamina, and willpower had reached a stage where further improvement became difficult; at this point, it was time to employ other methods, such as organizing teams of three, issuing wooden spears and having them battle bears and tigers.

Afterward, those who passed would practice charging on horseback; by then, according to Li Youu’s estimate, even with protection, dozens would not survive because it was a head-on collision—and even with blunt-tipped wooden sticks, some idiots would be speared off the horse, then trampled to death.
