One Punch Shatters the Heavenly Gate, and You Call This Confucianism?

Across the land of Jiuzhou, a hundred schools contend, countless blossoms bloom, immortal sects rise, and imperial dynasties stand side by side.

The Confucian school cultivates righteous virtue.

The Daoist school generates primordial qi.

The Buddhist school comprehends the true meaning of reincarnation.

Martial artists can move mountains and drain seas.

But poems run out, and ink runs dry. A hundred years ago, Confucianism and the Dao fell into decline after reaching their height.

Gu Chen is the Ninth Prince of Great Zhou, but because he loves Confucianism and the Dao above all, he is shunned.

With iron fists, he upholds reason; at his waist, he wears a sword of virtue.

He persuades with reason and repays malice with virtue.

What is benevolence? It means beating someone in half.

What is righteousness? It means knocking someone's head flying.

"By reading Mengzi, you have obtained the body of a sage."

"By reading the Brawling Analects, you have obtained the strength of a dragon and an elephant."

Seeing Gu Chen shatter an immortal sect with one punch and cut down an immortal from the Heavenly Gate with one slash, moving through the place as if no one could stop him, the people of Jiuzhou tremble in fear. You call this Confucianism and the Dao?!

The Great Chu Empress: So the so-called Analects are actually the Brawling Analects! Only Gu Chen grasped their essence.

The Upper Immortal Sect: So "Hear the Dao in the morning and die content in the evening" means Gu Chen found out where our sect was in the morning and came to wipe us out that night.
