My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare! Chapter 70: Bottleneck【Thank the league leader "No Matter Wh

Although Song Mu'er eventually gave half of the peach to Song Ning'er, Song Ning'er still looked sowhat unhappy.

Li Nuo felt a bit awkward.

At this mont, he felt like a parent with two children who couldn't distribute love equally between them.

It wasn't just a feeling, between the two sisters, he did indeed favor Mumu more.

Whenever there was sothing tasty or fun, his first thought was always Mumu.

Because Mumu was well-behaved.

She would, without disdain, play with a fool the first ti she t one, stand up for him when soone bullied him, and sweetly thank him after he helped her dress and groom.

Aside from so deeply rooted, decayed thoughts, all favoritism in this world was not without reason.

Absolute fairness to both sisters was unfair to Mumu.

Thus, although Li Nuo felt embarrassed being caught red-handed, he didn't think he was wrong. Next ti he gave sothing nice to Mumu, he'd just be more mindful of Ning'er's feelings.

After finishing the peach, Song Ning'er ran off alone.

Song Mu'er sat quietly next to Li Nuo while he read, occasionally asking him about characters she didn't recognize.

After days of diligent study, Li Nuo had worn out a copy of Shuo Wen; apart from so rare and uncommon characters that still required a dictionary, he had mastered most of the commonly used characters.

Song Mu'er was reading a Daxia children's enlightennt book. Although Daxia won were not allowed to take the Imperial Examination, so prestigious families, especially those of nobles, still valued the education of their daughters.

These girls had to learn Literature, Mathematics, Music, Calligraphy and Painting from a young age. They didn't need to master everything, but they needed to have so knowledge in all these areas.

After all, Daxia society was rigidly hierarchal, and prominent families would only marry within their social strata. The main wife of a prestigious household might not need to be a talent skilled in Qin, Chess, Calligraphy, and Painting, but she could not be illiterate...

Of course, that was just a superficial view.

Li Nuo glanced at his wife who was wiping a sword in the courtyard and thought being illiterate wasn't so bad.

At least, the slightly admiring eyes she showed when he taught Mumu and her Mathematics always secretly pleased him...

Today Mumu unusually didn't ask him any questions. Li Nuo turned and asked, "Didn't Mr. Chen assign any Mathematics howork today?"

Song Mu'er shook her head and said, "No, Mr. Chen took a leave today, so he didn't co to teach."

Actually, Li Nuo previously had so prejudice against Mumu's Mathematics teacher.

He thought Mr. Chen was one of those obstinate scholars who didn't know how to teach according to the student's abilities, always giving such difficult Mathematics problems to children, but his opinion of the elderly gentleman completely changed after eting him yesterday.

The old Master not only had a profound understanding of Mathematics but more importantly, at his age, he could still humble himself to ask a young person for advice, with such a modest and courteous attitude that one couldn't help but admire...

Qingfeng Academy.

Mr. Chen, with his hands clasped behind his back, looked at the three white-haired elders and pulled a wry smile, saying, "Tsk tsk… I've already explained it so thoroughly. You three couldn't possibly still fail to understand, could you?"

Compared to the spirited Mr. Chen, the other three elders looked especially haggard.

Given their age, staying up for two consecutive all-nighters would leave anyone drained.

The three n thought they could penetrate the mystery after a night of discussion.

Unexpectedly, these three pillars of Daxia's Mathematics couldn't make sense of another person's solution, even after collaborating and discussing it all night.

Originally thinking Mr. Chen was being deliberately enigmatic, they found clarity in their confusion after listening to his explanations today, as if their struggles suddenly clear, resolving all their doubts.

Embarrassingly, they had lived their entire lives, and only today did they realize the exquisiteness of Mathematics.

With their vision, it was not difficult to discern that the thod Mr. Chen used to solve the problem originated from the "square field" and "Pythagorean" theorem, yet it was not limited to them, but was a completely new mathematical thod.

If this thod could be perfected, it could undoubtedly create a new field in Mathematics outside of the "Nine Numbers," and his status could compare to the pioneers of Mathematics.

This ti, the three were completely convinced.

Old Man Lu bowed his hands and said with genuine admiration, "I admit, in the way of Mathematics, I am far inferior to you."

"I admit as well."

"In the way of Mathematics, you are truly formidable."

The other two elders also expressed their stances one after another. They had competed their whole lives, and unexpectedly, when Mr. Chen was of age, he was still able to have such an enlightennt. Beyond their regrets, they could not help but admire him.

Mr. Chen stroked his beard and said, "It's rare for you to have such enlightennt. If there are any questions you still don't understand, bring them all out, and I will spare so ti to help you look into them."

The next morning, Li Nuo slept until he naturally woke up. After having breakfast, he leisurely headed to the County Magistrate's Office.

He did not sleep well last night.

Because his wife was not by his side.

She had gone to accompany Mumu to sleep last night, and Li Nuo had to sleep alone in her room.

He always let her sleep on the floor, and Li Nuo actually felt quite embarrassed about it.

He had offered to sleep on the floor himself, but she had declined.

He also did not dare to invite her up to sleep together.

It was clear that she was not pleased with this marriage arrangent, so Li Nuo did not want to invite further disappointnt. He thought the current way they related to each other was not too bad.

The cases at the County Magistrate's Office today were unexpectedly nurous. Li Nuo was so busy that he did not have ti to go ho for lunch, and ended up eating at Pei Zhe's house. He thought that it would at least add three days to his lifespan, but, to his surprise, he did not gain a single day's lifespan by the ti the governnt office closed in the afternoon.

He was not sure if it was just his perception, but these days, he felt that the lifespan gains from judging these ordinary cases were diminishing.

It should not be just a perception.

Although he had not yet joined the door of Legalism, he was well-versed in the classics of Legalism and had a thorough understanding of the Legalist cultivation.

The cultivation of a Legalist disciple is such that initially solving so minor cases could increase cultivation, but as one progresses further, the difficulty of cultivation increases.

Those trivial little cases, after reaching the Third Realm, would have a minuscule effect. To rapidly increase one's cultivation or break through bottlenecks, one must handle so major affairs.

Thus, those high-ranking Legalists enjoyed exterminating families entirely and were particularly fond of judging nobles...

His situation was very likely encountering a bottleneck.

This was both a bad thing and a good thing.

If the increase in lifespan also had a bottleneck like cultivation, then before breaking through this bottleneck, it would be difficult for him to increase his lifespan by judging these minor cases.

However, once this bottleneck was broken, he could formally enter the door of Legalism and possess so self-protective power.

Furthermore, another issue made Li Nuo a bit perplexed.

Housekeeper Wu had once said that Legalist cultivation, in the short term of one or two years, or as long as three to five years, could give a glimpse into its thods, officially stepping into the door of Legalism and becoming a First Realm Legalist disciple.

But all in all, he had only been practicing Legalism for half a month, so how could he have encountered a bottleneck already?
