The Brawny Imperial Tutor: Your Majesty, Fusu Has Trained His Ghostly Back

Kong Quji, a practitioner of traditional martial arts, transmigrates to the Great Qin dynasty and takes on the mantle of a Confucian sage’s heir, becoming Fusu’s tutor.

Seeing Kong Quji standing before him, nearly two meters tall with a frame like an iron tower, the build of a powerful bull, and muscles bulging everywhere, Fusu is completely stunned.

“Master, are you really here to teach me Confucian classics and poetry?”

Kong Quji nods. “Exactly. I’m merely a scholar, frail and delicate.”

“Confucians believe virtue can win people over. Come, I’ll take you to get a tattoo first. We’ll have the character for ‘virtue’ inked on you.”

Fusu asks, “Master, what does ‘If you understand the Way in the morning, you may die content in the evening’ mean?”

Kong Quji replies, “If you find out in the morning that I’m asking for directions to your home, you can be dead by nightfall!”

Fusu asks, “Master, what does ‘The Master does not discuss strange forces and spirits’ mean?”

Kong Quji replies, “You brat, if I talk to you and you ignore me, I’ll use my savage strength to beat you senseless!”

One day, Kong Quji brings Fusu to meet Ying Zheng.

“Your Majesty, Fusu has mastered Confucianism and developed a ghostly back!”

Ying Zheng looks up at the brutish master and student before him and gulps hard.

“You’ve brought shame upon all things refined, shame upon all things refined!”
