She has that power? That's rare, but not uncommon.

Have you seen it for yourself?

[secondjade]

Described, but unseen.

Description enough.

Regardless: instruction beneficial, even if technique not applicable.




Harmed by world's disbelief. Best to be with those who know of spirits.

[lanofsizhui]

[Unseen? That shall be remedied during training.]

Technique may not be applicable, but ours is the most traditional and efficient.

Also, father. If Lan technique is not applicable, an adjustment in teaching lessons maybe necessary. Miu is new and Jin Ling style is different than Lan style.

[secondjade]

[ There's a slight pause. ]

Suggest teaching Jin style?


Ask Jin Ling to give mentorship?

[ Because there's no way in hell he's letting Meng Yao anywhere near his students if he can help it. ]

[lanofsizhui]

I was thinking that. You should spar with Jin Ling, their sword fighting style is different than ours.

Also father. This is a suggestion. But no handstands. I suggest a change in physical and meditation exercise program. I can train them both myself after the lesson.

[secondjade]

Will consider.

[ He's... pretty sure he would accidentally wipe the floor with Jin Ling but he could probably hold back enough to get an idea of the boy's technique.

He can't help but feel fond as he reads Sizhui's other suggestions. ]

Handstands important for physical and mental strength.

Submit edited curriculum. If acceptable, will grant change.

[lanofsizhui]

[Sizhui typed up a list of suggested changes and sends it to him as a document attached. Most of his changes suggested a lot of walking, hiking, and in replacement of handstands, he suggested mountain climbing.

The suggested change is really based on Sizhui's perception of Miu's and Jin Ling's physical weaknesses respectively and emotional fragilities. Not only that, he felt Wangji's training can be too harsh, basing on tradition where all juniors were trained without distinction. Waking up early at that certain hour can be done within reason.]

Not necessarily if Miu's strength lies in spiritual perception, then more focus on spells and talisman creation.

Handstands are for lifting heavy objects and increase strength in arms. Mental strength relies if one trusts each other in good faith. With trust, there's harmony and unity within the team.

[secondjade]

[ There's a long wait as Wangji reads over the document and deliberates, but eventually: ]

Curriculum granted.

Lan Sizhui to lead excursions.

However: also expected to continue his own handstand training, separate from others.

[lanofsizhui]

[With that settled, Miu and Jin Ling are spared of the harsher exercises to a lesser degree. Saved! Of course, to change his father's mind can be seen as impossible to some as he knew his father to be a stickler to tradition and rules.]

Thank you, Hanguang-Jun.

[secondjade]

[ Wangji can be very strict, but even he is aware that they are in very different conditions, now, in a very different place.

And Wei Wuxian...

Well, he's having to adjust in many, many ways. ]

Mm.

Carry on with duties. Do not over-exert yourself.
