The "Junzi Six Arts" of the Confucianists actually refer to six completely different, yet deeply interconnected paths of cultivation.
These are the six arts of rites, music, archery, charioteering, writing, and arithmetic.
Cultivators who cultivate these six legacies and pass through a series of tests may choose to take charge of one of the four Spirit Plants: "Meilan Zhujv" (Plum, Orchid, Bamboo, and Chrysanthemum).
What Song He desired was the Joy Bamboo cultivated by a gentleman who had reached the late stage of Nascent Soul and who specialized in the art of music, constantly nourished by the vast righteousness exuded from his own path of cultivation.
This 'music' is not purely about melodies but encompasses the entire realm of music and dance, including a complete set of traditions. The number of such inheritances is scarce; even the Red Dust Academy has only a few Nascent Souls cultivating this path.
