Mount Fenglong, a divine extension of the Northern Sacred Mountain and a distinct deity among the Three Peaks, earned its name from the legend of Yu the Great sealing a flood dragon here during his water-taming efforts.
For millennia, Mount Fenglong has been honored with rituals and commemorated in stone inscriptions, its spiritual legacy enduring unbroken. During the Han Dynasty, scholar Li Gong taught disciples here, laying the foundation for what would become the Fenglong Academy. Later, Tang Dynasty luminary Guo Zhen entered the mountain, obtained a legendary sword, composed the "Ode to the Precious Sword," and established a school. Thus, the mountain became a beacon of scholarly pursuit, drawing devoted students.
In an era of disrupted seasons and fractured lands, Crane, an Elder of the Mohist Gate, upheld righteousness amid peril to establish the Fenglong Academy. Championing education for all—regardless of lineage or status—his teachings nurtured minds like spring rain, benefiting the realm. Though chaos cannot be quelled in a day, I have witnessed here an unbroken chain of wisdom, where the torch of knowledge burns undimmed.
