588 FIRST DAY IN THE CLASS
When these children's mind was filled with doubts and fear of being discriminated for their poor outfits, Jimmy finally entered the Judgement Ground. He looked at the huge crowd and smiled. He then said, "Good Morning everyone! My name is Jimmy. And I will be the one who is going to preach on the Basics of Cultivation."
As soon as Jimmy concluded with his introduction, all the poor children stood up immediately. They bowed down and said in respect, "Greetings, Master! Thank You for your care."
Jimmy smiled in response. He looked at these children's eyes filled with hope and respect. Jimmy sighed. He never forgot. Back then, when he was declared as someone who was born with no Magic Core, he felt the horror of being helpless. He never showed it on his face. But his heart was on complete despair. He felt as if all his hopes and dreams collapsed on the spot.
But later he learned about the Willpower. He trained in the Willpower with all his heart. But that's not the point. The point is that, when he was declared that he hasn't born with the Magic Core, the feeling of being powerless was very frustrating for him. He was relieved when he successfully started to train in the Willpower. His eyes was filled with hope.
Today he found that very same hope in the eyes of these poor children. He suddenly saw himself in these children. His heart filled with emotions. Earlier he only wanted to teach them basics. But this time he made up his mind. Today he will preach on the basics of cultivation to the point where he will help these poor children build their foundation very strong.
He said, "No need for all these formalities. Please sit down."
How could he not unerstood that this kind of paying the respect was something they were trained by their parents before sending them here? He could understand this very well.
The children sat down. The cultivators also sat down after paying their respect. Jimmy is the second awakening stage expert. He is much stronger than even their Pavilion Lords! As someone with weak cultivation, they would obviously pay respects to the strong person like Jimmy.
Jimmy said, "Before I start the class, I would like to ask you a very important question. Be more attentive. This question is very simple. But it is very important for every cultivator."
Everyone started to wonder. A simple question? But a question which is very important for each and every cultivator? What could it be? They tried to guess. But soon gave up as Jimmy raised the question.
Jimmy asked, "What is your purpose for cultivation? Why exactly you people chose to cultivate?"
The crowd fell silent. Indeed. This is a simple question. But it is also very important one as well. The so called experienced cultivators lost in their thoughts. Because they knew that they had never asked themselves such a question. No instructor in their Pavilion in the God Realm ever asked this question in front of them.
Even the Six Pavilion Lords were lost in their thoughts. This question was very simple. But they knew that their is a much deeper in depth meaning behind this question. And this question is indeed very important for every cultivator which they never asked themselves ever before.
Looking at the silent crowd, Jimmy smiled and said, "Hmmm! I expected this silence. According to my own personal analysis, there are more than 99% people in our world who don't know why they actually cultivates. And this is the reason why nobody reaches the apex of the world. You people cultivates because cultivation is very common. It became daily part of your life. You people were raised with the idea of being a cultivator. But you never ask yourself this question. Why did you chose the path of cultivation."
Bill stood up and said, "Brother! You are right. We never asked ourselves this important question. Thank you for opening our eyes."
Bill continued, "But since you raised this question, I would like to know your answer. Please tell us, brother! Why did you choose the path of cultivation?"
Everyone looked back at Jimmy. Appearantly, they were hoping for an answer which gives them a purpose. The purpose for why did they chose the path of cultivation.
"My reason for choosing the path of cultivation?" ,Jimmy looked in the sky with serious face. He smiled and said, "Everyone, please look at the sky. Tell me. What did you find?"
Everyone looked at the sky. The naive children didn't doubt whether their exist any in depth meaning behind Jimmy's question. But the experienced cultivators are different. They were looking at the sky and were thinking with the cultivator's point of view.
"We find Shining Sun!"
"We find Blue Sky!"
"We find clouds which look beautiful."
The naive children replied their findings. They were truly naive because they never educated in their life before.
"You people are right." ,Jimmy smiled and said, "Shining Sun, Blue Sky and Beautiful Clouds are part of the sky which looks even more beautiful. This is something every person knowa. But I have a question for you all. What can you see behind the sky?"
Everyone were completely rendered speechless. It is a rhetorical question. What acually exist behind the sky? no one knows.
Jimmy said, "I don't know either. I want to get strong to the point where I can go beyond the sky and explore it."
Before others could say anything, Jimmy continued, "But as of now I couldn't go beyond the sky. I am restricted by some kind of power or some kind of person. In other words, my fate is being controlled by certain someone. Or my fate is in the hands of some kind of mysterious energy."
"This is the reason why I cultivate." ,Jimmy suddenly looked at them and said, "As long as your fate is in the hands of somebody's hands, you won't have any freedom. I know that my journey has just begun. Even though it's just a short one, I know that as I cultivate, I will take a step closer to my dream."
Jimmy took a deep breath and said, "The reason why I cultivate is to nullify all kind of restraints and restrictions from me. My journey is very long. I have a clarity. So I take things slowly. I know that if I rushed in my cultivation, then I won't reach the apex in cultivation."
"But what if you won't be able to reach that apex?" ,Someone asked.
Jimmy smiled and said, "Then I will have no regrets. Because I know that at least I tried my best."
