I Hijacked The Timeline

Chapter 8



Someone Has to Step Forward

“I admit that luck played a part, but I was the one who improved the exercises,” Feng Qi said seriously as he looked at Wang Jinsheng.

Hearing this, Wang Jinsheng fell into deep thought.

Wang Jinsheng had a detailed understanding of Feng Qi’s family background. He knew that his parents were once members of the domain combat team, but they disappeared during an operation to disperse a domain field. Hence, Feng Qi was always alone and stayed in school.

The school was under closed management, so it was impossible for Feng Qi to interact with people outside the school.

As for the school, he really didn’t think anyone had the ability to improve the cultivation exercises that had been modified many times by their predecessors.

Feng Qi said that the exercises were improved through his own haphazard attempts. It seemed that other than this explanation, there was no better answer.

Thinking of how Feng Qi was feeling unwell in the morning, Wang Jinsheng had a guess.

“You weren’t feeling well this morning. Is it related to the random alteration of the exercises?”

“I’m not sure. I can’t rule it out, and I’m uncertain.”

Before figuring out the secrets of the mysterious dream, Feng Qi did not intend to expose it, so he chose to answer against his will.

“Don’t try it randomly in the future. The path of cultivation techniques is related to the acupuncture points in the body, and there are many fatal acupuncture points in the body. If you’re not careful, your entire body might be paralyzed and you’ll become a cripple. You can try it again when you learn more about improving cultivation techniques in the future!” Wang Jinsheng patted Feng Qi’s shoulder with concern. Then, his expression became serious.

“Feng Qi, I have a request now. I hope to get your approval!”

“Go ahead, I might not agree.” Although he said that, he could already guess what Old Wang wanted to say to him.

“I want to send your modified exercises to Tiger Soul Research Institute and let them test it. If the test results are feasible, it will be promoted all over the world. You will also be rewarded and it will be of great help to your future.”

“No problem!” Feng Qi agreed without hesitation.

With Feng Qi’s reply, a smile appeared on Wang Jinsheng face.

“Rascal, as expected of the student I taught. You didn’t disappoint me.”

“Of course. You often tell us that selfish motives can’t compare to the future of mankind. I came to you this time to promote my improved exercises.”

“You’re teachable!”

“No, you taught me well!”

After flattering each other, Feng Qi suddenly said,

“By the way, Old Wang, do you want me to repeat it a few times for you?”

“Okay, I’ll take another look and see what else is different.”

Feng Qi took two steps back and stood still. Then, he performed the exercises again. During this period, he would pause at critical points from time to time, allowing Wang Jinsheng to observe more clearly.

As for how to teach, he had already watched it several times in the video in the database. During this period, he kept explaining the key points of the movements to deepen Wang Jinsheng’s understanding of this improved version.

As for Wang Jinsheng, after watching Feng Qi’s demonstration, he quickly grasped the key points and displayed them according to Feng Qi’s movements. He was already quite proficient.

By the time Feng Qi was repeating it for the third time, Wang Jinsheng was already completely familiar with it and had mastered the breathing rhythm during the cultivation.

After stopping, Feng Qi looked at Wang Jinsheng who was still deep in thought and asked,

“Old Wang, have you ever thought about quitting being a teacher?”

Wang Jinsheng, who was in thought, looked puzzled when he heard this. Then, he shook his head.

“I’ve considered it before, but I’ve given up!”

“Why? The entire school knows that with your graduation results, you actually have better places to go to. Staying here is a complete waste of your talent. Some people even say that you chose to live a comfortable life here as a teacher because you’re afraid of fighting domain creatures, that you’re a coward.”

He knew very well whether Wang Jinsheng was a coward or not, but he wanted to know why Wang Jinsheng gave up the opportunity to work at the Tiger Soul Research Institute after graduating from the academy and chose to stay here to teach.

Hearing this, Wang Jinsheng could not help but scold with a smile,

“Why do you care so much? Get back to your revision. If you’re not feeling well, go to bed early.”

“Can you tell me why?” Feng Qi continued to probe.

Upon hearing this, Wang Jinsheng pondered for a moment. Then, he picked up the wine bottle on the ground and took a sip.

“There’s no harm in telling you.

“Actually, my original plan for my future wasn’t to be a teacher. I planned to either join a domain combat team after graduation or enter a cultivation techniques research institute to modify the flaws in existing cultivation techniques, perfect them, or study new cultivation techniques. However, an accident changed my mind.”

Looking at the curious Feng Qi, Wang Jinsheng took another sip of wine and continued.

“Before graduation, we had a domain combat training. After entering the domain field, my companions and I were attacked by domain creatures. During that period, we resisted with all our might and finally fought our way out, but three of our companions died.”

“Is this related to your unwillingness to work at the Tiger Soul Research Institute?” Feng Qi looked puzzled.

“In that combat test, I saw the cowardice and fear that several of my companions suppressed in their hearts. When they faced domain creatures, they only had the strength but did not have the courage to resist. They almost implicated the other team members. From that moment on, I understood one thing. A weak body can be saved, but a weak mind is hopeless.

“After the mission ended, I thought about it a lot and finally made a decision. I gave up my chance to work at Tiger Soul Research Institute and became a history teacher to resolve this problem from the root.”

Hearing this, Feng Qi already understood what Wang Jinsheng was thinking.

Many people said behind his back that Old Wang gave up because he was cowardly, but he felt that Old Wang had given up this rare opportunity for the future of mankind.

During class, Wang Jinsheng was extremely serious. He would always tell them firmly that humans would definitely win in the future.

He would also often tell them about the history of humans and creatures in the domain. He would introduce the great people who had made huge contributions to humanity and sacrificed themselves bravely. He hoped that they would use these as an example.

He would often publish articles on the forums of various academies to motivate those mentally weak people, hoping that they would understand that only by improving themselves and resisting to the end would humanity have a future.

The seemingly carefree Wang Jinsheng actually put a lot of pressure on himself. He yearned to awaken the entire human race mentally, and more than anyone else, he yearned for humanity to welcome the final victory.

Looking at the drunk Wang Jinsheng, Feng Qi was silent for a long time before saying,

“The influence of being a teacher is ultimately limited. You can only change some people, but you can’t change everyone. I think you shouldn’t stay here. You should go to Tiger Soul Research Institute and try your best. Perhaps you will develop a cultivation technique suitable for all of humanity. As long as you succeed, it will benefit all of humanity.”

After checking the database of the future, he knew that Wang Jinsheng would eventually give up teaching and return to Tiger Soul Research Institute. From then on, he would start a glorious life. He developed a series of cultivation techniques that were more suitable for human cultivation and made indelible historical contributions to the rise of humans. He was even rated as a historic great.

At this moment, he wanted to change history and try to make Wang Cheng wake up in advance and return to the path meant for him. He did not want him to waste his talent here.

“The path of developing cultivation techniques is not as simple as you think. Perhaps I might not be able to develop a cultivation technique even if I work hard for the rest of my life. I’m not as formidable as you think.” Wang Jinsheng shook his head and sighed. As he spoke, he took out a bottle of wine from a cardboard box at the side and opened the cap with his teeth before taking a big gulp.

“Someone has to step forward. If you don’t try, how will you know that you can’t do it? If you really want humans to win, you should take the most difficult path. Just like how I improved the exercises. If humans could have more of such cultivation techniques, would we still fear domain creatures?”

Feng Qi’s words stunned Wang Jinsheng.

Just as Feng Qi had said, he was, after all, only a single person. If he wanted to use teaching to awaken the weak, his influence would be extremely limited.

However, if he could develop a very perfect cultivation technique, the situation would be completely different. The cultivation technique would definitely be promoted and help all of humanity.

If there were more perfect cultivation techniques that allowed humans to obtain greater strength than domain creatures through cultivation, they would not have to fear of the invasion of domains.

“Old Wang, I’ll take my leave first. Let’s chat again when we have time.” With that, Feng Qi turned around and left.

Feng Qi did not know if he could change the future, but he wanted to give it a try.

Someone had to step forward. This sentence was both for Wang Jinsheng and himself.

He didn’t know what the future would hold, but it would be enough if he had at least worked hard and had no regrets.

Watching Feng Qi leave, Wang Jinsheng’s mind was in a mess.

Hearing Feng Qi’s words, he realized that an impulse had rose in his heart. It was as if a seed had taken root and sprouted in the depths of his heart, growing uncontrollably.

The path of developing cultivation techniques is filled with difficulties, but someone has to come forward. Why can’t that person be me?

“You rascal, you actually made me waver.” As he muttered, a trace of fighting spirit ignited in Wang Jinsheng’s eyes.

The butterfly’s wings quietly flapped at this moment, changing the direction of reality.

At some point, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed.

Wang Jinsheng looked up. The bright moon was in the sky, and the stars were dazzling.
