Shen Lian responded, "So you will be teaching without discrimination."

"Yes," Guan Longzi replied with a serious face.

Shen Lian looked at him, sighed and said, "Although teaching without discrimination is not absolutely fair, it is fair enough. Do you know what are the consequences of this?"

Guan Longzi remained silent for a moment and replied, "If it was not me, someone else would have done the same."

Shen Lian smiled and said, "That's great."

No one knew if he was referring to the idea or Guan Longzi's character, but it did not matter.

Guan Longzi's student recruitment and preaching was the first blow towards Xia Kingdom's strict policies on hierarchy. It was an open challenge towards the power of the aristocrats and royalties.
