The elder was leaving.
He had received the response he wanted from Jiang Li, so there was no need to ask further.
Yet before he left, he posed one more question.
"Yesterday, I heard that there was a debate between a scholar from the Imperial College and a disciple from the Mo Sect; Young Master Jiang was listening from the adjoining room. But I wonder, to Young Master Jiang, between the teachings of confucianism and mohism, which is superior and which does Young Master Jiang favor?"
Jiang Li was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, as he hadn't expected the elder to ask such a question.
His mind raced, but he spoke calmly about the characteristics of confucianism and mohism, "The Confucians honor the superior, the Mohists root among the inferior; one preaches benevolence, the other universal love. It would be hard for juniors like me to judge which is superior."
