章 17: Chapter 17 - Back in the Sect
"Senior Brother, you are back!" said Yu Guanyu when she noticed Xue Yang climbing the stair to the sect compound. Her mouth rises a little, forming a gentle form of a smile.
Yu Guanyu has been waiting for Xue Yang since the sun rises. She has not started her daily training.
She soon realizes that Xue Yang is holding two unconscious people at his shoulders.
"Ah! Senior brother, who are they!?" shouted Yu Guanyu. Her eyes widen in shock.
"Yes, I am back," smiled Xue Yang. "Don't worry, these two are- Hmm, how to say it... they are fellow disciples here."
"Are they okay?"
"Yup, they should be okay."
Not long after Xue Yang started sprinting, both Guo Xianhu and Guo Lingxin fainted. When Xue Yang noticed it, he checked their body. After he found out that both were fine, he continued to run.
"Where are Zhang Hao and Liu Mei?" asked Xue Yang. He continued walking to the guest room, wanting to unload Guo Xianhu and Guo Lingxin.
"Zhang Hao is still training. Liu Mei is observing him," said Yu Guanyu.
"Liu Mei is observing Zhang Hao?"
"Yes, they are in the dormitory yard right now."
Xue Yang opens the door to the guest room. There are four guest rooms in this sect compound. Two of them have a single bed inside. Meanwhile, the other rooms have two beds in each room.
He then placed Guo Xianhu and Guo Lingxin on two different beds in the same room.
"Okay. So, did anything happen when I was away?" asked Xue Yang. He patted Yu Guanyu's head at the same time.
"Nothing happened."
"Is that so? Let's go to the yard then…." Xue Yang then continued, "Zhang Hao is training now, did you finish your training already?"
"Eh- I waited for senior brother in the front gate."
Hearing that, Xue Yang ruffled Yu Guanyu's hair.
"Ah! I am sorry senior brother! I will train, I will train right now. Don't play with my hair," Yu Guanyu pouted. Her already tidy hair becomes a little messy again.
***
Xue Yang and Yu Guanyu arrived in the dormitory yard a few minutes later. There they see Zhang Hao running around the yard. They also noticed Liu Mei sitting on the side, observing the training Zhang Hao.
"Liu Mei, what are you doing right now?" asked Xue Yang.
Liu Mei jolted from her place. She didn't expect to see Xue Yang and Yu Guanyu.
"Senior brother, I asked Zhang Hao to let me observe him," said Liu Mei.
"Is that so? Do you want to train again?"
Liu Mei nodded. Her face then turned pink in embarrassment. She then said, "Senior Brother, I am sorry."
"No, it is okay…. Right, take this with you. Read it first and try to train with that technique."
Xue Yang gives Liu Mei the book that contains Never-ending Blossom Breathing Technique.
Liu Mei take the book but then her already pink face turned red. She said softly, "Senior brother, I- I can't read."
Xue Yang is surprised, he then looked at Yu Guanyu. "Yu Guanyu, can you read?"
"I can! But only a little."
"How much is a little? Can you read that book?"
Yu Guanyu can only shake her head.
"Do you think Zhang Hao can read?" asked Xue Yang to both Yu Guanyu and Liu Mei.
"He can't read," said Yu Guanyu.
"Yes, he said that before," added Liu Mei.
Xue Yang sighed, "Well…. This is a problem."
Xue Yang should have expected this. But for some reason, he thought that it is normal for children to be able to read.
His memory of the modern novel must be the one that makes him think that way. If Xue Yang tried to remember his experience in the Silk Sword Sect, he will notice that he couldn't read before. Then there was a time when he gets taught how to read and write in the sect.
"Okay. I will teach you all how to read later," said Xue Yang.
Xue Yang decided that he will teach the children. Guo Xianhu and Lingxin are also included. He is sure the two of them also can't read.
"Yu Guanyu, let me check your body."
Xue Yang proceeded to check if something is wrong with her body. After a brief check and finding that nothing is wrong, he let Yu Guanyu train.
"Liu Mei, do you want to train today?"
"But I still didn't understand," said Liu Mei. Her eyes looked down to the ground.
"You can always train your body only. Forget about the breathing for now."
"Then…," said Liu Mei. She sticks out her left arm to Xue Yang. Just like Yu Guanyu, Xue Yang also checked Liu Mei's body.
"Good, nothing is wrong."
Yu Guanyu that is still standing nearby said, "Let's go change first, we will train together."
She then holds Liu Mei's arm before walking toward the girl dormitory. Taking Liu Mei with her.

Xue Yang is sitting in a lotus position below the shade of a tree nearby. From the outside, it looks like Xue Yang is doing meditation. But he is actually checking the new addition to the system.
[Shop]
[System point: 0]
[Spiritual Stones: 300 Grade 2]
[Manual] [Weapon] [Medicine] [Ingredients] [Exchange]
Checking the [Manual] menu, Xue Yang finds a list of manuals. It has many books that are used in the First stage of Cultivation and the Second stage of cultivation. There are entries for the higher stage manual but all of them are greyed.
It is also the same in the [Weapon] menu. Weapons for the higher stage are greyed. Xue Yang can only buy weapons for stage 1 and stage 2 cultivators.
[Medicine] and [Ingredients] menus also have greyed items. But Xue Yang didn't know the differences between the greyed items and the usual items.
Lastly, the [Exchange] menu lets Xue Yang exchange the [System Point] with Spiritual Stones and vice versa. That is right. It exchanges System Point with Spiritual Stones.
That is because all things in the shops are sold using Spiritual Stones as the currency.
"I wonder how this work?" muttered Xue Yang. "There is no way they list all manuals in this world, right?"
Xue Yang checked the list on the [Manual] menu again. He estimated that there are around 200 to 300 stage 1 Body Refining Technique Manuals.
"The world is so big. I am sure there are more than 300 Body Refining Techniques in this world.
"If that is the case, then what do I need to unlock other manuals?"
Xue Yang decided to not think too much. For now, 300 different Body Refining Techniques are more than enough.
He then stands up, "I should go look at the Guo siblings."
