"I'm just here to watch the fun. Just give me a glass of water, that's all."
Confucius waved his hand amiably, saying, "You all keep talking."
The group of powerful family patriarchs looked at each other in bewilderment.
Everyone present was a shrewd individual, and considering the recent series of events, the sudden emergence of such a prodigy naturally led to a connection with the mysterious person who kept ending races.
In fact, all the major families have already taken action in private.
The immense profits that come from seizing control of this person first are immeasurable.
After the incident at the Sage's Track, the Confucius family made a public statement regarding this person.
"He is a friend of the Kong family, and the Kong family's doors will always be open to him."
These are Confucius's original words.
The sudden appearance of Confucius at this moment carries an unmistakable sense of intimidation.
The meaning is clear: under his watchful eye, it's best not to do anything underhanded.
Otherwise, if this living saint were to lose his temper, these aristocratic families would not be able to withstand it.
Liu Aozhi and the others exchanged glances and could only silently restrain themselves.
at this time.
With the "Adaptation Technique" skill applied, Lin Yi's achievement points unsurprisingly soared to ninety.
"The Quest for Knowledge track has triggered the end of the track. Both players, please take your positions."
With a solemn expression, Cheng Lingyun took a deep breath and stepped onto the knowledge-seeking track under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Suddenly, someone in the Heavenly Palace asked, "Who do you think will win?"
Yuan Boxi, the head of the Yuan family, said with a meaningful look: "I heard that Cheng Lingyun is Bi Yang's top student. Bi Yang has given her many achievements. Their relationship is not just ordinary."
The group of Heavenly Palace leaders all revealed knowing smiles.
Bi Yang is the leader of the Shenhou Group and is recognized by Tianjun as the most outstanding technical fanatic. His research achievements in many areas are even comparable to those of the group of unparalleled old monsters present.
To be precise, he was simply lacking in age and experience to become one of those old monsters.
One day, Bi Yang will become one of them, and even one of the very top few.
However, although Bi Yang's expertise was high, it was limited to the research level.
In other aspects, he is a typical STEM guy, completely clueless about interpersonal relationships and has no idea how to deal with people. It's easy to imagine how he will be manipulated by a female subordinate as beautiful as Cheng Lingyun.
It should be noted that countless people in the Shenhou Group wanted to become Bi Yang's disciples, but in the end, only Cheng Lingyun was able to claim herself as Bi Yang's disciple.
The deeper meaning behind this is something any man would understand.
Cheng Lingyun's ability to secure a spot in the final round ahead of time was largely due to Bi Yang's instruction.
Since she has gone to such lengths, what she possesses is naturally not limited to what she has already shown.
To prepare for the final moments of the race, she must have something even more substantial in her hands.
"So, Zu Jun is playing against Bi Yang? Isn't that a bit unfair?"
Li Chengyuan, the head of the Li family, frowned.
Liu Aozhi smiled slightly: "Once you're on the track, everyone will show their unique abilities. What's the point of talking about fairness or unfairness? As long as the Heavenly Dao approves, then everything is fair."
The powerful figures from various prominent families wholeheartedly agreed.
After all, the key to their rise to prominence lies in exploiting various loopholes in the competition, which is blatant cheating for others. Where is the fairness in that?
This is an absolutely undeniable issue of who's the butt.
Confucius smiled and asked, "Do you think Cheng Lingyun has a better chance of winning?"
Liu Aozhi nodded: "That's probably it, unless this Zu Jun who suddenly appeared can surpass Bi Yang in skill."
This statement is meaningless; the idea that true masters are often found among ordinary people is something that only ordinary people truly believe in.
From the perspective of the Tianjun aristocratic family, if someone were truly an unparalleled master, they would have already been brought out to serve as their retainers.
You can choose any position in the Heavenly Palace Twelve Groups, isn't that great?
Yuan Boxi shook his head: "That's hard to say."
Many bigwigs nodded in agreement.
Ordinary people certainly don't have the right to provoke Bi Yang, but if the person in the room is the one they're guessing, given his previous astonishing performance, it's not necessarily true.
In the sandbox, both sides took their positions, and the game officially began.
The ultimate goal of the pursuit of knowledge is not fighting and killing. The format is quite similar to that of the pursuit of sainthood, and the essence is the discussion of the Tao.
However, the difference is that, as the first party to secure a spot in the final round, Cheng Lingyun can set the core agenda, naturally giving her a significant advantage.
Cheng Lingyun quickly posed the question.
Ancient rate.
All the people outside the venue showed strange expressions. If they didn't have some knowledge, most people wouldn't even understand the question.
At the track entrance, someone asked in confusion, "Isn't the ancient ratio just the commonly known circumference ratio? A diameter of one thirteenth of a circle, how can that be a final issue?"
The others were also puzzled.
This is the final stage of the pursuit of knowledge, especially since they have already produced so many amazing research results. In their minds, this topic must be profound and unfathomable.
How could such a basic fact be created?
Li Tianguo shook his head and explained, "A diameter of one circumference is just a rough estimate. Cheng Lingyun raised this issue because she must have found a way to calculate a more accurate value."
After his introduction, everyone immediately became interested.
Lin Yi, standing in the arena, had a strange expression on his face.
To be honest, he was a little apprehensive about having the other party set the agenda this time.
Although he was capable of responding to any question posed by the other party, given his scientific achievements in the secular world, there was a problem that was neither too big nor too small.
It may not fit the persona.
After all, the figure he created in the sand table was modeled entirely after Zu Chongzhi.
If you simply copy and apply other things, not to mention whether it will affect the judging of the track, it would be an insult to Zu Chongzhi, a great sage of ancient times.
But now, things have taken a turn for the worse; the other party has directly posed questions that fall within their own area of expertise.
Lin Yi's lips curled into a smile: "After today, the pi metric in Tianjun will probably have to be renamed."
At this moment, Cheng Lingyun on the other side was full of confidence.
She had just read part of "The Art of Combining Elements" and knew that the other party's mathematical skills were not bad, but since she dared to bring up this topic, she must have absolute confidence.
Cheng Lingyun announced directly: "The system of 'one track per three times' will become history starting today."
After saying this, under everyone's watchful eyes, he began to calculate pi on the spot using only some basic bamboo strips and wooden sticks.
Everyone watched quietly.
Soon, a big shot noticed something amiss: "The method of exhaustion?"
There are many methods for calculating pi, including the method of exhaustion, but it is not a mainstream method in Tianjun.
The so-called method of exhaustion is to use the area of a regular polygon inscribed in a circle to infinitely approximate the area of the circle in order to calculate pi.
