Dong Canglan explained calmly, as he prepared the tea. His actions were effortless, yet demonstrated an extreme level of proficiency and fluidity.

"Common people have a tea set with one teapot, accompanied by four, six, or at most eight teacups; do you know why?" Dong Canglan asked.

"It's probably because even numbers are considered auspicious, such as four sounds like 'joy', six like 'smooth' or eight like 'wealth'." Feng Yin replied.

"Correct, that is indeed the secular belief. However, those who practice spiritual cultivation often associate it with the five elements, the seven stars, or the nine luminaries. Especially those who excel in appreciating tea. While preparing tea, they often arrange the teapot and teacups in a formation to facilitate Spirit Gathering. Of course, the quality of the tea set used must also be considered. Not every tea set can be used this way. Any slackness could lead to a wastage of valuable resources."
