Dragon's Origin

A group of grandmasters were all pondering, wanting to add to the points raised by Wang Sheng.

Everyone now understood Wang Sheng's meaning. Since no one knew which cultivation method was suitable, they should first identify the necessary characteristics and then look for methods based on those characteristics.

This was a good approach. Searching for a target based on needs was certainly more convenient than everyone chiming in with the advantages and disadvantages of a particular method, right? Targeted selection was definitely more precise than aimlessly trying one method after another.

"I think we can add the requirement of composure and calmness," Grandmaster Liu pondered for a while and said, "During the performance, someone might advance, which places higher demands on the musicians. The more critical the moment is for others, the less likely we, the performing musicians, can afford to make mistakes. Being composed and calm will help us cope with such situations."

In the past, such situations were common at everyone's concerts, but these grandmasters were old enough to be accustomed to them, immersing themselves in their music without making mistakes. If it were a younger musician, such as those in the Royal Symphony Orchestra or those with less experience, they might make mistakes!

It had happened before that a graduate of the Royal Academy of Arts made a mistake during a performance, but no one advanced at the time, so it didn't cause any major trouble. However, if the cultivation method could make people more calm, dealing with such problems might be simpler and easier.

Making mistakes is inevitable. Even grandmasters can't guarantee that they will never make a mistake. At this time, the most important thing is to remain calm and not continue to make mistakes, and to be able to calmly deal with the situation at hand, so as not to make it worse. Therefore, there is a high demand for calmness.

"That point can be added," Grandmaster Yu nodded, "In fact, whether we are composing or practicing day after day, there are times when we feel bored. At this time, this kind of trait is needed."

The crowd then engaged in another round of discussion, and finally came to a complete conclusion. There were about a dozen requirements, but this was too cumbersome for a cultivation method, so everyone had to remove some of the less important requirements. After another round of streamlining, everyone found that the final requirements were still the four proposed by Wang Sheng plus the one proposed by Grandmaster Liu, for a total of five.

The cultivation method should be able to strengthen the body, so that the musician has good physical strength to sustain continuous performances lasting four or five days. It should allow the musician's energy channels to be long and sustained, so that blowing, stringing, and singing can all be done in one breath. It should allow the musician to have a good sense of rhythm, and the cultivation rhythm should be very clear. It should enhance the musician's hearing and improve the judgment of pitch, rhythm, and volume. It should increase the flexibility of the arms and fingers, and finally, it should allow the musician to remain calm.

"With so many requirements, we can then put out a reward," Wang Sheng said with a smile to the grandmasters after the results were released, "Relying solely on ourselves to find the cultivation methods we have seen is certainly not enough. Offer a high reward in gold coins, and perhaps some obscure cultivation methods created in some remote corners will be discovered and caught up by us!"

"Offer a reward?" Grandmaster Yu frowned first.

"Human power is limited. We can't possibly have seen all the cultivation methods in this world," Wang Sheng stated his reason, "Therefore, gathering the wisdom of everyone in the world to help us choose is a more feasible method."

"Not appropriate!" Wang Sheng still underestimated the importance this world placed on its cultivation methods. Since they wanted to find a path and a method for all those who devoted themselves to music to improve their musical realm, the grandmasters' intention was to resolve it within a small scope as much as possible.

"Then I'll look for it among the existing cultivation methods on hand." Wang Sheng didn't care. Anyway, it wasn't that he had to find a suitable one immediately, nor was it for his own cultivation. Wang Sheng could look for it among the cultivation methods left by the Lin family and Zhu Xingsheng, but he couldn't guarantee that he would find it. As for the Taoist methods, Wang Sheng certainly didn't have the authority to take them out.

Several masters were still pondering, when Wang Sheng suddenly laughed, "Grandmaster Yu, Grandmaster Liu, Grandmaster Shan, speaking of which, you are already leading grandmasters in musical performance, and your cultivation is not weak, and the spiritual energy changes during cultivation are also very pure. Why not create your own cultivation method?"

"Create our own cultivation method?" The masters mentioned by Wang Sheng suddenly lit up when they heard Wang Sheng's suggestion.

Not only the ones mentioned, but almost all the grandmasters present were like that.

Creating their own cultivation method, creating a cultivation method most suitable for musicians, this proposal made everyone's heart tremble. An irresistible temptation rose from everyone's heart.

If creating a new way of performing, inventing a new instrument, or even composing a new song that would be passed down through the ages was the most attractive thing for these grandmasters, then creating their own cultivation method exclusively for these musical performers would be an unprecedented feat of establishing a new sect?

Everyone fell silent, each pondering the feasibility of such a thing. But obviously, everyone seemed very excited.

"Create our own cultivation method, can we do it?" Grandmaster Yu raised his doubts on behalf of everyone, "We are just a group of musicians."

"That's right, you are just a group of musicians," Wang Sheng nodded in agreement with Grandmaster Yu, but immediately added, "But you are also a group of legendary realm grandmasters."

"During your performances, you have experienced at least thousands of people advancing and undergoing spiritual energy body tempering in front of you," Wang Sheng said to the crowd, "And you may experience more in the future. Don't tell me you can't perceive the direction of those spiritual energies during the performance. You must be able to clearly investigate the cultivation status of each person who advances."

Everyone was thinking along with Wang Sheng's words, and some were nodding silently. Indeed, they had experienced too many high-level advancements, so many that they had seen almost all kinds of cultivation methods.

Most ⊥ New ⊥ Small ⊥ Say ⊥ In ⊥ Six ⊥ 9 ⊥⊥ Book ⊥⊥ Bar ⊥⊥ First ⊥ Hair!

"Shouldn't a grandmaster just be able to bring performance skills to the peak?" Wang Sheng continued to bewitch, "I believe that there are so many kinds of cultivation methods in this world, they will never appear out of thin air. They are also improved little by little by generations of experts."

After a pause, Wang Sheng waited for everyone to digest these contents before continuing, "As far as I know, the Emperor has improved the imperial family's Mind-Preserving Meditation, and my senior brother Lingxu Old Ancestor has also improved the Taoist Canon Meditation. Masters, don't you want to carve out a path for future generations?"
