Chapter 60: The Greatest Person

Editor: GaiaNova, Thaddpole&Tortex

Zhang Xuan was a transcender, so how could he have known that creating a cultivation technique would result in such astonishment and commotion? As such, he was unable to understand the reason behind the expressions of the students. With a calm face, he took out another book. “Liu Yang, this manual is something I just wrote based on your situation. Cultivate according to it, and your right hand should recover completely within half a month or so!”

Before anyone could even react, he took out a few more books again and passed them over.

“Yuan Tao, you have good defensive abilities. The book I passed you the previous time is your fundamental cultivation technique while this one is aimed at improving your defensive abilities. Wang Ying and Zheng Yang as well, I have compiled your unique characteristics and wrote a book for you two each. If you two were to train according to it, your cultivation should rise swiftly!”

Since they were all his students, naturally, he couldn’t favor one more than the other. Thus, there was a gift for every one of them.

These cultivation techniques were made from combining multiple secret manuals from the teacher’s Compendium Pavilion using the Library of Heaven’s Path. They were tailored specially for Wang Ying, Liu Yang and the rest of them based on their physical conditions. There were still flaws in there, but there were significantly less of them compared to the other secret manuals.

“These secret manuals…”

“What an impressive cultivation technique…”

Regardless of whether it is Wang Ying, Liu Yang or Zheng Yang, they were all people who were capable of telling the value of a manual. Just by taking a look at these nameless manuals, all of them trembled vigorously in agitation.

The manuals could be said to be tailored perfectly to them, not to mention how incredibly high tiered they are. Comparing the manuals they just received with the ones they cultivated before, the other ones were like trash amongst all trash; there was totally no way to put the both of them together!

“Teacher, these books… we are allowed to name them?”

Unable to hold it in anymore, Wang Ying asked.

“Un, feel free to do so!”

Zhang Xuan waved his hand.

“Ah…”

His students stared at one another, their fists subconsciously clenched tightly together.

Writing a single cultivation technique was already an incredible feat. Yet, to write five of them, and each one was tailored for each of them, even allowing them to name their technique themselves…

This capability and this generosity!

It was unheard of in the entire Hongtian Academy!

The crux of it all was that these cultivation techniques were made specially to cater to their needs…

No matter how vast one’s knowledge was and how enlightened one was towards the path of cultivation, they would have surely expended a lot of effort to create them. It was very likely that he hadn’t slept for the entire night!

Their teacher stayed awake for the entire night to toil on these cultivation techniques for them, and yet they doubted if their teacher possessed the abilities to guide them…

This was too…

The eyes of the crowd turned red again.

This sentiment, was equivalent to changing their entire lives!

“Thank you, teacher!”

The five of them knelt down simultaneously. Staring at Zhang Xuan who was standing before them, unwavering determination appeared in their eyes, “Zhang laoshi, rest easy. We promise to never divulge these cultivation techniques outwards. Whoever divulges them will receive any type of punishment you mete out willingly!”

“Never divulge them? Alright!”

These cultivation techniques created using the Library of Heaven’s Path paled far in comparison to the Heaven’s Path Divine Art, so Zhang Xuan wan’t too bothered about it. At this moment, hearing his students say these words, he agreed with it nonchalantly.

“This is the disposition of a true master!”

Seeing Zhang laoshi indifferent to this matter, the students conceded to him willingly.

[What is a master?

This is!

Who is the greatest person?

He is!

To be capable but humble, misunderstood but unfazed, humiliated but composed and calm in the face of sudden situations…

To have such a teacher is a tremendous blessing of theirs!]

Zhang Xuan didn’t know that in this moment, he had already ascended from the ranks of a mortal to a god within the hearts of his students. After instructing everyone to cultivate as soon as possible, Zhang Xuan was free once more.

A teacher should not be keeping a watch on his students, but rather, allow them to train and learn by themselves. A teacher was only responsible for pointing out their faults and direct them towards the correct path.

Now that all of them have suitable cultivation techniques, as long as they cultivated as per normal, they would be able to achieve acceptable results.

……………………………………

Hesitation appeared on Shen Bi Ru’s flawless face. However, thinking about the wonders the young man showed her yesterday, her curiosity burned once more and she determinedly walked over.

She was the goddess of the academy, the idol of all male teachers and students. Everyday, the number of flowers and presents the teachers and students gifted her was countless. Even so, she was nonchalant to it and never tried to approach a teacher of the opposite sex of her own accord. However… the young man yesterday attracted her as though a mystery, causing her to walk over without any say on the matter. In fact, she wasn’t even able to conduct a lesson properly this morning due to it.

“I’m just going over to expose him… There isn’t any other reason to it!”

Finding an excuse for herself, she heaved a sigh of relief and proceeded forward in large strides.

Speaking of this Zhang Xuan laoshi, she had known him since a long time ago. However, as she never really interacted with him, she wasn’t too knowledgeable of his affairs. Even so, based on the descriptions of others, there were only three adjectives to describe him. Worst! Worst! And finally, still worst!

He was reputed for being the worst teacher in the academy.

All along, she had thought so as well. However, yesterday, her thoughts were overturned.

He could remember all the contents of a book just by casually flipping through it. Despite scoring a zero in his Teacher Qualification Examination, he was able to come up with multiple answers for the questions in it. Just by eating a meal, she realized that he was a gourmet. Furthermore, to be able to persuade the Sky Shattering Lion to listen to him so easily…

What used to be the worst teacher in her eyes became an enigma. Incomprehension clouded over her no matter how she contemplated over it.

“Forget it, I will stop thinking about it. Today, I will definitely get an answer out of him…”

Harrumphing coldly, she raised her jade-like face. Only then did she realize that she was already standing right before Zhang Xuan’s classroom. Just as she was about to enter, she saw a mummy-like person standing outside the door.

Yao Han was in a dilemma.

Yesterday, when he made a move and roared publicly at Zhang Xuan in the classroom, he was reprimanded by the young mistress when they returned.

After which, when he returned back to his dwelling at night, he thought about the matter and rage welled up in him.

The origin of this mess was that trash of a teacher, Zhang Xuan.

If not for him committing something indecent to the young mistress, causing the young mistress to be blackmailed by him, how could her face blush completely red as she insisted on becoming his student? If not for that, he wouldn’t have been beaten up to such a state when he went over to assault him at night.

Unable to persuade his young mistress, his original intention was to inform the city lord of the matter, so that he could step forth and settle the issue. However, Baiyu City was a long distance away, and even the best horse would take at least half a month for a two-way journey. If he were to really leave… What if that beast of a teacher were to do something immoral? If so, even if he were to die, it would be hard for him to swallow the blame!

“What should I do? Young mistress would definitely be unhappy with me if I were to barge in right now. However, if I do not barge in, she might get bullied and hurt…”

Just like that, Yao Han stood at the entrance for a very long time, perplexed.

“Who are you?”

While he was still in a dilemma between the two course of action to take, an oriole-like voice sounded. Lifting his head to take a look, he saw a beautiful lady standing at a short distance away looking at him with a puzzled expression.

This beautiful lady was around twenty year old or so. She was dressed in a light purple robe, which brought out her elegant figure perfectly. With skin as smooth as cream, despite not moving much, she was still absolutely gorgeous.

“I don’t think that there’s any need for me to tell you who I am!”

No matter what, Yao Han was a veteran who had experienced the harsh world. Thus, he recovered quickly and harrumphed.

[You are just a little girl while I am the butler of Baiyu City Lord’s Residence. Are you worthy of having me report my identity to you?

Besides… Most importantly of all, how can I dare to proclaim my identity in such a state…]

“Refusing to identify yourself? What do you intend to do here by covering your face then?” The beautiful lady frowned. Gedeng, her heart suddenly pounded and a thought flashed through her mind. “This fellow, it can’t be that… He is hired by Shang Bin to teach Zhang Xuan a lesson!”


Chapter 61: She Loves Me?

Editor: GaiaNova, Thaddpole&Tortex

After inviting Zhang Xuan out for dinner yesterday, they ended up meeting with Shang Bin.

For him, the grandson of an elder and a high-level teacher of the academy, to be pummeled to such a state, it would be bizarre instead for him not to seek vengeance!

However, since the academy banned private duels between teachers in its compounds, could it be possible that the fellow sent someone else to intentionally mask himself so as to assault Zhang Xuan here?

It was no wonder that Shen Bi Ru would think so. After all, Yao Han’s dress up was way too bizarre. A thick layer of white cloth covered his entire face, revealing only his eyes. At a glance, the impression he gave others was of one unwilling to reveal his true identity!

Furthermore, he refused to answer upon being questioned!

Thinking about it now, the reason why Zhang Xuan forbade her from following him yesterday was because he knew that Shang Bin would be unable to take it lying down. He knew that Shang Bin would definitely find someone to take revenge on him!

A cold gleam flashed across Shen Bi Ru’s narrowed eyes. She was the cause of this entire situation, so naturally, it wasn’t right for her to be watching by the sidelines. “Do you know the punishment for attacking a teacher in the academy?”

“Attacking a teacher?”

Yao Han didn’t expect the beautiful lady to ask such a question. He was first taken aback, but he soon recalled the event with Shang Bin yesterday. In an instant, realization struck him. “Could it be that you are that Shen Bi Ru?”

The cause of Shang Bin pummeling him was due to Shang Bin getting jealous of Zhang Xuan as the both of them were vying for Shen Bi Ru’s favor. He would never forget this incident even if he was beaten to death. Yet, at this moment, a beautiful lady suddenly popped up and asked him whether he knew that attacking a teacher could result in a penalty. Who else could this beautiful lady be other than her?

Looks like she was here to seek vengeance for Shang Bin after he pounded her pursuer yesterday.

“That’s right!” Shen Bi Ru put on a wary expression as her fists clenched tightly together. Her aura billowed, “If you want avoid any trouble, leave right now. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite!”

Being a Fighter 5-dan pinnacle, she exerted intense pressure on others upon releasing her full strength.

“Impolite? Aren’t you here to find trouble with me? What a lousy excuse!”

Seeing how she was preparing to make a move when the both of them had barely spoken a few words, Yao Han’s face darkened to the extremities.

As a butler of Baiyu City Lord Residence, he was a powerful figure in Baiyu City. No matter who he met, they would always show some deference to him. Yet, over here, he was first beaten to a pulp by someone, and now, a lowly ordinary teacher didn’t even show him respect. Rage surged through him.

How could he still tolerate it after hearing these words? His complexion darkened as he clenched his fist. Without a word, he charged forward.

The moment he made a move, the rebuke that Shen Bi Ru was about to direct towards him got choked in her throat. With no other choice, she could only face up to him.

Peng peng peng!

In a moment, the both of them started crossing blows.

Shen Bi Ru might just be Fighter 5-dan pinnacle, but she possessed incredible stamina and profound techniques. Furthermore, even though Yao Han’s fighting prowess surpassed her, due to his injury, he wasn’t able to take her down within a short moment.

………………………………

“Shang shaoye, what did Elder Shang say?”

On the pavement in the academy, Cao Xiong couldn’t resist the urge to ask the young man walking over.

“Rest assured. As long as that student of yours did not willingly acknowledge Zhang Xuan as his teacher, he is dead meat this time!” Shang Bin sneered coldly.

This morning, Elder Shang ran over to the Teacher Guild to find Elder Mo and invited him here.

As long as he brought Zhang Xuan and his student to the 【Enlightenment Will Tower】, the latter’s reputation would be ruined and he would be expelled from Hongtian Academy!

“That’s great. The moment Zhang Xuan is expelled from the academy, Shen laoshi would definitely give in to gongzi‘s persistence! By then, it would be difficult for her to stay away from you…”

Cao Xiong flattered him with a smile.

“Un! No doubt about it, Shen Bi Ru was deceived by that lad’s flowery talk yesterday, that’s why she gave in and had a meal with him. As long as that lad scrams from the academy, I don’t believe that my efforts to woo her will remain in vain!”

The moment Shen Bi Ru flashed through his mind, self-confidence welled up in Shang Bin once again.

He was the grandson of an elder, as well as a high-level teacher, not to mention that he was tall and dashing. Regardless of which aspect one was speaking of, he was countless times more outstanding than Zhang Xuan!

In the entire academy, only he was worthy of an enchanting lady like Shen Bi Ru.

As long as he persisted on, who else could she fancy other than him?

“Then, I will be giving my blessings to Shang shaoye to bring the beauty home soon!”

Cao Xiong quickly followed up with a fawn.

“Rest assured, if I were to become a couple with Shen laoshi, I will make sure to reward you greatly…” Shang Bin wanted to laugh heartily, but the next moment, he accidentally tugged on his wounded muscles and excruciating pain surged through him. “Also, other than Zhang Xuan, I will not forgive the one who beat me up yesterday, Yao Han! So what if he is the butler of Baiyu City Lord Residence? This is Tianxuan Royal City, not a place for him to do as he pleases!”

That fellow pounded his face in public, leaving him disfigured. How could he possibly forgive him!

“Naturally!” Cao Xiong nodded his head. Suddenly, he froze before quickly pointing forward, “Shang shaoye, quickly, look…”

“What happened?” Shang Bin was bewildered. Unable to hold in his curiosity, he turned to take a look. In that instant, his eyes narrowed, “Isn’t that Shen laoshi? Why is she battling with someone else? That is… Yao Han!”

Right outside Zhang Xuan’s classroom, the two were fighting intensely.

One was the goddess that he thought of even in his sleep, Shen Bi Ru, while the other was the person whom he just spoke of, the one who made him grind his teeth in resentment, Yao Han.

The two of them weren’t acquainted with one another, so why were they fighting?

“Shang shaoye, could it be… Shen laoshi found out that you were beaten up by this fellow, so she felt angered and wanted to take revenge for you?”

After hesitating for a moment, Cao Xiong suddenly thought of a possibility and commented.

“Un? Is that true?” Shang Bin was taken aback.

“Indeed. Otherwise, there is no reason for the two to be fighting one another! Shen laoshi has a gentle personality and treats others kindly, she doesn’t get into fights easily. You should be well aware of that as well. Right after you were beaten up, she gets into a huge fight with him. If she didn’t do it for Shang shaoye… I can’t think of any other plausible reason behind this! To be willing to go so far for you, I dare to confirm that Shen laoshi has some feelings for you, and very possibly, it could be… love!”

Cao Xiong said.

“She loves me?”

Shang Bin’s body froze, as a wave of happiness gushed through his heart.

[That’s right, there’s no other possible reason for Shen Bi Ru to fight with that guy.]

Never would he have thought that this woman, despite refusing his dates and keeping her distance from him, she would actually… love him so much, and care so much for him!

Even going to the extent of… battling a Fighter 6-dan expert despite being at Fighter 5-dan!

“This cannot do. I cannot allow her to get injured because of me!”

Agitation filled his heart. Shang Bin felt as though he had been revived and fighting spirit gushed through him.

The debt that was the hardest to bear was one from a beauty.

The other party had already gone this far. What did he have to hesitate about?

If he continued hesitating, then he wouldn’t be a man anymore!

“Shen laoshi, I am here to help you…”

With a furious roar, Shang Bin rushed upwards.

Yao Han was in the midst of battling with Shen Bi Ru. After testing her out for a few dozens of blows, he had already grasped onto the offensive methods of the other party. He was confident that as long as he got serious, he would be able to defeat her within a few blows. Just as he was about to execute his ultimate technique, he heard a shout and Shang Bin appeared before him.

“As I expected, they are a team. Damn it, damn it!”

Seeing his arrival, Yao Han’s rage flared up once more.

He was suspecting whether the incident might just be a misunderstanding a moment ago, but by the looks of it now, the heck it was a misunderstanding!

It was obvious that these two were in it together, and they were intent on finding trouble with him.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. As such, he no longer held back and struck down mercilessly upon Shang Bin.

“Un?”

Shang Bin rushed in all of the sudden spiritedly and in the turn of an eye, he started crossing blows with Yao Han. Shen Bi Ru was unable to react to the sudden change of situation.

Upon seeing the two of them battle one another, she couldn’t help but be taken aback.

“Can it be that I have guessed wrongly, and this man isn’t sent by him?”

The moment such an idea popped into her head, another possibility flashed through her mind and her face darkened, “I see, he is trying to kill two birds with one stone. No wonder I found it weird. If this masked fellow wanted to find trouble with Zhang Xuan, he could have just rushed in straight. There is no reason for him to be loitering around the entrance. From the looks of it now, it seems that he wants to play out the act of a hero rescuing the beauty so as to attract my attention. Hmph!”
