"Take a seat."
"Ah.... yes, Mr. Kim."
"We will have our Hangul lesson today so that you've learned the basic by Wednesday.  We'll start with the Korean alphabet and I expect you to read the Hangul characters by tomorrow.  In our lesson, you're going to learn the Korean alphabet in only 30 minutes using visual associations, mnemonics, and stories.  That means you will be able to read the Korean alphabet and start sounding out Korean words anytime you see them.  You may be surprised how often you see the Korean characters!  I've also got a Korean alphabet chart here that has audio samples.  Once you know the alphabet, you can then skip directly to the chart and practice your pronunciation and listening.  Let's get to it!"
"Oh..... copy Mr. Kim."
"The official writing system for South Korea is Hangul (한글), which is the name for the Korean Alphabet system.  That means you can say Hangul and Korean alphabet interchangeably since they mean the same thing.  Korean is the official language of South Korea, and it uses Hangul as its alphabet and writing system.  Hangul is also written as "Hangeul".  They are two different ways of spelling the same word.  "Hangul" is the most common way, and "Hangeul" is the newer way of writing it.  "Han" means "Korean", and "gul" means "letter".  Put them together, and you've got the term "Korean letter", or "Korean Alphabet".  The Korean alphabet has a lot of similarities to the English alphabet, which makes it easy to learn.  It has consonants and vowels that form syllable blocks.  These syllables can be sounded out just like words in English."
"Uhm..... yes Mr. Kim."
"Here is the basic Hangul chart for the consonants and the vowels of the Korean alphabet.  The first Hangul chart, or Korean alphabet chart, is for the consonants.  Next to each of the consonants is the romanized spelling for that particular consonant.  The spelling changes depending on whether the consonants are positioned at the start or the end of the syllable.  The romanization is only used for the spelling of the Korean word in English letters.  Since you're learning Korean and needs to know the correct pronunciation, then you should use the associations later in this lesson and learn the correct pronunciation of the Korean alphabet consonants."

"Here is the Hangul chart for the vowels of the Korean alphabet.  Next to each of the vowels is the romanized spelling of each vowel.  The spelling of the vowels is consistent and doesn't change.

"To have a good pronunciation of the Hangul consonants and vowels, it's best to use the associations as a guide and learn how each letter is correctly pronounced."
 "Ah..... okay Mr. Kim."
"Since Hangul is a very scientific alphabet, it's great for beginners like you who don't know any Korean.  It's also quite easy to write in Hangul since the letters follow a basic order.  Did you know that there are fewer letters in the Korean alphabet than there are letters in the English alphabet?  The Korean Alphabet has 14 consonants and 10 vowels.  Unlike Japanese or Chinese, which have thousands of characters and each can have 10, 15, or more strokes, the most complex Korean character in the alphabet can be written using only five strokes. That makes learning both Hangul and Korean quite easy.  On top of this, the Korean language has a grammar structure that can be mastered by understanding some basic rules.  This makes Korean a great language for learning quickly and easily.  It all starts with knowing the Hangul (Korean alphabet)– the basic building blocks of the language.  Hangul is a very scientific writing system. It was developed with precision in mind about 500 years ago by King Sejong the Great.  King Sejong wanted to give Koreans a practical way of reading and writing to promote literacy.  Throughout this lesson, we'll use the terms Korean letter and Korean character interchangeably.  People tend to use them both when they learn Hangul, so you can use either one."
"Oh..... okay, then Mr. Kim."
"In this Korean alphabet lesson, we'll make use of psychological techniques to help make learning Hangul fun and easy.  Namely, associations and stories to help everything stick in your brain so you can't forget it.  This lesson covers the Korean alphabet, broken down and simplified so you can begin speaking right away.  There is audio to help your pronunciation with Hangul."
"Uhm..... I guess so."
"Hangul (the Korean Alphabet) has both consonants and vowels just like English.  Let's learn the consonants to start.  First, let's take a look at the English alphabet.  Instead of looking at the actual letters, let's just look at the sounds they make.  In doing so, we can find the closest equivalents in the Korean alphabet so that we can start to make associations to learn the Hangul letters.  In Korean, there are no F, R, V, or Z sounds, so let's take them out.  The rest of the consonant sounds exist in the Korean language.  However, the Q, W, X, and Y sounds must follow one of these two rules:
a) They only can be made by combining two or more sounds (ie., X = K+ S)
For example, The X sound can be made by combining the K and S sounds (X = K + S).  Try it now!
b) They cannot be made without adding a vowel sound after (ie., "ya" or "yo")
For example: In Korean, we can create the sounds ya or yo but not the standalone Y sound.
Finally, let's remove the English vowels since we are first focusing on the consonant sounds.  But we can group C and K together since, in English, they make the same sound.  Since you're learning a new language and have never seen these shapes before, it will be very difficult for you to just memorize them.  Therefore, we need to 'link' the characters to something already in your mind in order to create an association.  Let's do this using a visual learning technique to associate the new letters with pictures and sounds you already know.  The first letter of the English word in the picture has the same sound as the corresponding Korean letter.  This will help to start to create associations with Hangul characters.  The Hangul letter ㅂ, which has a sound similar to B in English, looks like a bed with a post at either end.  Make this association in your mind.  Write it down and commit it to memory.  Likewise, the Hangul letter ㄷ could seem like a doorframe or the panels on a door.  Correspondingly, this letter makes the sound D.  The Korean consonant ㄱ has the appearance of a gun and sounds similar to an English G.  This Hangul letter is especially easy to write since its only two lines.  The same goes for the Hangul letter ㅎ(H), which looks like a man with a hat.  You can write this consonant as a circle with two lines above it.  And the consonant ㅈ (J) which could be seen as a jug with a spout at the top.  You can write this Hangul letter a few different ways, so just become familiar with the overall shape of the letter.  Try creating the associations for these consonant letters now.  Next is the Hangul letter ㄹ, which is written using 5 basic strokes and could be compared to the rungs of a ladder.  Its sound is most similar to an English L and can be made the same way by pressing down with your tongue.  This is a fun letter to write!  Finally, there are the Hangul letters ㅁ, ㄴ, and ㅅ, which have the sounds M, N, and S respectively.  The ㅁ is a square box like a message on a phone or a piece of mail.  You can write this consonant like a rectangle.  The Hangul letter ㄴ points up and to the right like a compass pointing to the north (and the east at the same time).  You can write this letter with two lines.  The consonant ㅅ is like a seashell or clam, having only two strokes that slightly overlap.  There are two different ways to write this Hangul letter, so just get used to the overall shape.  It's basically just two lines."
"Ah..... Mr. Kim, you're finally teaching me Korean thank you."
Do Yun feels wonderful not because she is grateful but because he can see the love light in her eyes.  But the wonder of it all is that she just doesn't realize how much he loves her.

Love that transcends dimensions of time and space.

Some argue that various works by authors that do not meet the requirement of fine grammar and spelling are rubbish. Here, each person has his own opinion, and let him stick to it and impose his opinion on others as the ultimate truth, it speaks only of ignorance of life. It is diverse.

Is the work of authors with poor grammar garbage? In my opinion, no. Each author tells his story, passed through his worldview, attitude, understanding of life, his experience and thoughts about the world. It's always interesting for me to read this personally.

I'm a bibliophile, I read a lot of classic works of art, Tomass and Gernih Mana, Feuchtwanger, Mark Twain, Stvenson, Romain Roland, Galsworthy, Tolstoy and all his volumes and there are about 19 of them! I didn't read Dostoevsky, I didn't like him. But Azek Azimov, Ursuda Le Guin, Tolkien, Kipling, Conandoyle, Louis Besenar and others I read with pleasure. Li Bo, the poetry is gorgeous. Novels of feudal and late feudal China, Japan, Korea. Novels and novels by Chinese prose writers of the early 20s and 80-90s of the 20th century.

In general, I read about 10,000 books. Fiction, fantasy, poetry, historical novels, ballads, myths and legends.

After that I became interested in reading historical documentaries - about the history of the Silk Road, Archeology, History, Ethnography, Etymology, the Big Game, the story of the confrontation of imperial intelligence in the vast regions of the Silk Road.

I read about 550 books, from the 16th to the beginning of the 21st century.

I have some kind of base for evaluating short stories and novels.

Sometimes works written flawlessly in terms of grammar, alas ... they are completely devoid of meaning, they are not interesting, they do not have fascinating stories, conclusions, experience, thoughts. But work with poor grammar, on the contrary, have unique information. Of course, not all works, but there are some.

Therefore, when assessing the creativity of another person, the author, being so categorical in evaluations, says only that you have a maximalist who still knows life poorly. This is the right of choice, each person, and to impose a choice on another according to my preferences, I consider this not comme il faut. Well, here everyone has a point of view.

In fact, this is an eternal question - what is more important? Beautiful text form or good content? Bestsellers are those works that combine good text and good content.

I am the author myself. But not a professional writer, but a techie. I don't know much about composition, about the intricacies of writing good text. But I have a very interesting content. Is my story garbage? I do not think so? Do I respect the reader? Sure. But writing is better so far I can't. Nevertheless, I have my own circle - readers who are interested in my work. There are not hundreds or thousands of people, but a couple of dozen will be typed.

I write in the genre - a documentary historical fiction, there are many interesting facts about the Silk Road with which I wanted to share. If I were waiting for the moment when I could write well in terms of English grammar ... I would not be able to share it now ... maybe in a couple of years ... and still I would not be able to write like this they write - people from English-speaking countries. This is a favorite topic of native speakers to reproach those who learn this language in their ignorance of the intricacies of the language they learn, grammar and spelling errors ... As we say, the dog barks, the caravan goes on. That happens.

English is the world language of communication. Moreover, for me it is the third language. I speak English well, but my grammar is lame. I admit it. Yes, I need to teach her, but I don't think I can write in perfect English.

The overall result - write as you can, share your thoughts, in the era of information, the content itself is important and not its form. One way or another, it can help others, they can come to a new thought and write a story about your topic that you would like to read yourself!


As they say in the East - do good and throw it into the water, a person will not know, the fish will know!

Peace and prosperity!

Thoughts of why and why stories are written.

All the same English, he has not improved in 18 days.

I'll figure something out, try to correct the text.

---------------------------------------------------------
This is a work of art. Any resemblance to real people or real events is purely coincidental.

At the studio.
Everyone was in a state of shock.
On the computer was the draft that Zhang Ye had written over the past three days. Everyone was looking at one another, over and over again, with a sense of horror. Many of the staff were very surprised that Director Zhang could actually finish writing a novel with so many words in just three days. But even that would have been acceptable since Director Zhang had fallen into such a state before when he was writing other prose. In a way, everyone here was so used to seeing something like that that they could accept it even if Zhang Ye were to write out 1 million words in a day. The thing that horrified them was something different.
Ha Qiqi stared and said, "English?"
Zhang Zuo also thought that he had it wrong at first. "Is that really English?"
Little Wang couldn't believe her eyes. "Is this English?"
Tong Fu said in an unsure tone, "It looks like English."
Zhang Ye harrumphed, "Why? Haven't you all been to university? Don't you all know English? Let's not talk any further if you guys don't even have the ability to understand this English."
Little Wang was aghast!
Ha Qiqi was floored!
You're criticizing us now?
Of course they all went to university.
Of course they all could understand English.
But what they were stunned about was that Director Zhang could actually fucking write in English!
Who didn't know what Director Zhang's English was like!
Pick out any random middle school student from across the country, and they would be bound to find someone whose English was better than his!
Director Zhang had actually written an English novel?
Did the sun rise from the west today?
Ha Qiqi said in surprise, "Since when did you pick up English?"
"I've been locked away for close to four years." Zhang Ye found an excuse and said, "Surely I could have learned some foreign languages in that time."
Zhang Zuo pointed at the computer screen and said, "B-But this isn't an ordinary level of English. There are a lot of words in it that even I don't know existed. This level—it's probably what an American would know at most, isn't it?" With a pause, he said again, "And there's even the mention of the American Civil War? And talks about the lives of American people?"
Zhang Ye said confidently, "Yeah."
Ha Qiqi looked at him. "Have you ever been to America before?"
"No, I haven't," Zhang Ye answered.
Ha Qiqi, Zhang Zuo, Little Wang were speechless.
You haven't been to America.
Your English years ago was really bad as well.
So how did you even come up with wanting to write a novel with an American setting!
Aren't you being too ballsy with your subject matter!
As a member of Zhang Ye's Studio, as long-time staff of Zhang Ye's, they had followed Zhang Ye everywhere over the years. If there was one thing they had to say they were most convinced about Zhang Ye, then all of them would absolutely answer unanimously that it was: Zhang Ye's bravery! This was something that they all had to take their hats off to him for. The balls Director Zhang had would sometimes even frighten them to death. That "courage" he had would often shock them as well!
However, they still contacted the publishing houses.
One.
Three.
Five.
In the end, they managed to find five publishing houses that were willing to publish the book for them.
Actually, this was quite good. Zhang Ye had never published a novel, poetry anthology, or anything of the like before. In international literature, it wouldn't be wrong to call him a newcomer. But because he was so well-known now, with the title of the number one celebrity in the Chinese entertainment circle, it gave him a greater advantage in doing things. Together with his status as a mathematician and the world's number one hacker, among many other titles, some overseas publishing houses were still willing to publish a novel for him. They probably thought that having just 20,000 copies of the initial print run and stamping them with the label of "by the world's number one hacker" on its cover, they wouldn't have a problem selling them. Even if the novel didn't do well, the publisher was unlikely to lose any money. In terms of cost-benefit analysis, the publishers were much better at it than them.
Ha Qiqi asked, "Will this work, Director Zhang?"
Zhang Ye said without a care, "Yeah."
Ha Qiqi said, "Then we'll go ahead and sign the contract with them?"
"Alright." Zhang Ye said, "Notify me if you need me to speak with them. If you can't get through to me on my cell phone, go look for me at my place."
Zhang Zuo was taken aback. "You won't be coming into the office the next few days?"
Zhang Ye said, "Yeah, I won't be coming in for the next few days. Since we're going for the Nobel Prize in Literature, how would a single language edition be enough? Although English is the world's lingua franca, it still isn't enough. I'll spend some time working on it and push out the Chinese and Russian translations no matter what."
Chinese?
Russian?
When did you even fucking pick up Russian?
Why didn't we know about it?
Did you learn it in prison as well?
Wu Yi suddenly said, "Director Zhang, what kind of prison did you go to?"
Zhang Ye blinked. "Why are you asking that for?"
Wu Yi said, "My child's foreign language has always been bad. I'm thinking of sending him there to learn."
Zhang Ye had no reply.
In Zhang Ye's previous world, Gone with the Wind had been translated by many countries in the world, especially the major ones. The translated versions were all quite good, but Zhang Ye didn't get to read too many of them. He had only read the Chinese, English, and Russian editions of the novel. So he could at most translate it into those three languages here in this world. Even though he had eaten all those skill experience books that gave him the knowledge of many world languages, knowing a language and translating it are two entirely different matters. It required too much literary knowledge, so Zhang Ye's current skill of languages was still not enough for that. But as long as the English version existed, it was pretty much enough. As the world's lingua franca, it wouldn't be a problem getting published throughout the world. If the novel really ended up selling well, the other translated languages would naturally follow. Many of the world's leading translators would come looking for him instead of him looking for them.
…
Back home.
The door was closed.
Zhang Ye buried his head in writing.
With hardly any rest, he continued working and working.
To win this Nobel Prize, he was willing to risk his life.
One day.
Three days.
Five days.
Chinese.
Russian.
He wrote so much his brain nearly turned into paste.
…
Online.
The news leaked.
"Did you hear? Zhang Ye is going to publish a new novel."
"Ah? Are you sure?"
"It's already been published. It's a global release with the first version being an English edition!"
"Pfft, can you not joke!"
"It's true! A friend from a foreign publishing house told me about it!"
"Get lost, that's impossible!"
"Hahaha, I'm laughing like crazy!"
"Why don't you guys believe it! It's true!"
"I laughed so hard my sides hurt. This joke can keep me entertained for an entire year!"
"Zhang Ye has written an English novel? Are you making fun of me for not attending university?!"
"This fellow wouldn't even know how to write the English word for 'novel,' would he!"
"If this fellow can write an English novel, I'll fucking change my name! I'll start spelling it backwards! Stop joking. It's obviously fake news from the sound of it!"
"I'm not having any of it! Not even a three-year-old kid would believe it!"
"Zhang Ye's English is shit! Like he would know how to write a novel in that language!"
Zhang Ye's English was very well-known to the people!
In that grand battle between humans and machines, this guy had faced off against PeterGo. In a critical match, he could even fucking spell his name wrong and call himself "HEOR" instead of "HERO"! So how could anyone expect him to know English?
Hur hur!
The whole nation's citizens wouldn't have any of it!


Zhang Ye was originally a mundane college graduate with aspiring dreams to become a star, but unfortunately has below average looks and height. However one day, he woke up and suddenly found himself in a parallel world! 
It’s like the same world, but wait a minute…many brands, celebrities and even famous works from his world changed and are gone in this new world! Armed with the profound literary knowledge of his previous world and a heaven-defying Game Ring that gives him magical items, stats and skills, Zhang Ye embarks on a journey to pursue his life-long dream of becoming famous!
Follow Zhang Ye as he takes the new world by storm, one plagiarized piece at a time, to hilarious reactions!

Some of the authors on Webnovels were inspired to write their own stories after reading the works of famous authors. Perhaps some of them believed that they could do a better job. Some of them ran out of things to read, so they decided to write the "story" that they want to read. While others… just want to write a story that they think will be popular to the readers.

Ironically, the stories that they had written also inspired other readers to write their own stories as well. Hopefully, this cycle will never end. So that the future generations will be able to read new and exciting stories that will show them a world filled with sword, magic, cultivation, and Lo--

Xandarx: There's a reason for them to be famous as they have their style

Zenith: lol.

Xandarx: You can see it from their work, it's true. Like their character has embedded into the book. This is what make them different I think.

Zenith: I know. But not everyone is as great as you show them to be. They learn from their previous works While we are still struggling to finish one.

Xandarx: Yeah, I know.

Zenith: They move on and get better that's where the difference lies. If you see any CN author who made it big, you can see that they had their share of experience before getting there, or for that matter, any author in the Western world.

Murakami: Not necessarily publishing houses only accept works they think will sell.

Zenith: The ones who get it big the first time are rare.

Murakami: So you might not see how they built up to their debut novel. Authors can have 15-20 scrapped novels b4 they debut, and the public don't get to read a single one.

Reili: Yikes.

Xandarx: Yeah.

Zenith: That doesn't make the author lose his experience of writing those scrapped novels that's the point I was making.

Murakami: But it also means that it's more like hit and miss.

Reili: True because they don't get the feedback from fans.

Murakami: They get limited feedback from an agent/editor who doesn't want to read their work.

Zenith: Yeah, but it surely is better than nothing.

Murakami: And they're left with a bunch of abstract and vague advice that they have no idea how to implement.

Reili: If they don't enjoy it, the feedback won't be as insightful.

Zenith: They can learn from their mistakes from reading their own works.

Reili: Well…

Zenith: If possible, from platforms.

Murakami: If they knew how to do that they'd fix it and publish it.

Reili: It would make the process easier if someone who enjoys the book to give them better feedback.

Zenith: It's called rewriting from scratch, and it takes a tonne of time if the author feels more interested in some other idea of his, he would do that.

Reili: I suppose so since the author being inspired will bring his book along.

VKBoy: If the ones giving review are professional editors, then they don't necessarily have to have read your work with immersion because their suggestions will still likely cover the basic flaws that amateurish writers usually make.

Reili: Point taken.

Zenith: Yeah.

Murakami: @VKBoy if they spot those errors they'll put down the manuscript after the first page

Reili: Then again, its a little bit like movie critics. They may hate the movie, but fans love it.

Zenith: Yeah.

Murakami: And then send a reply saying, "Don't send in another manuscript until you learn how to write properly."

Zenith: Professionals in the said field prefer not taking risks. Especially in movies, but books, you can keep trying.

VKBoy: Well, if there are errors in the first page itself, that's a whole different thing, lol.

Reili: True.

Murakami: No, but a good editor can tell the writing quality from just the first page even if you've crafted it perfectly, they can just tell that the rest will be shit.

Reili: You have to also take into account of one punch man. The original comic looks terrible, but the redraw made it amazing.

Zenith: That's smartness of the creator.

VKBoy: Well, in one punch man's case, it got attention from the companies after it got popular in the online communities.

Reili: So a persons writing and grammar may be terrible, but with a little editing, the story itself could be amazing.

Zenith: You can let the editor do the Shi*t and focus on your story, It works.

Overlord Venus: Yeah, solo leveling is a good example. The story is bland.

Reili: But it would also help if the author re-reads the edit to make sure the essence of their story is still there.

HavenlyJeep: Essence and core backbone.

Zenith: @Reili It depends on what the author wants, and how much work he is willing to put in.

Reili: @Zenith true.

VKBoy: Of course, some editors just butcher the style of the author.

Reili: Same but honestly I just use Grammarly and the read aloud function in word to make sure the chapter makes sense.

Zenith: You can learn about writing, grammar, editing if you truly want. It is just the question of, would you?

Reili: I'm more into thinking up ideas and writing them than editing.

VKBoy: Editing is also writing, mate. Rewriting is where real writing lies.

Zenith: It's a skill in writing a story, but your choice.

Reili: Point taken.

Murakami: You can't be a writer without being an editor.

Zenith: Editing it yourself can help you keep the heart of the story.

Reili: That being said, the more I write, the better my basic grammar became.

Zenith: You will keep the feels right.

Reili: Editing is now part of the process.

Zenith: And not make it just sound or look better, you give what the story wants
And that is a great thing.

Reili: Creative freedom.

Zenith: I want to learn grammar and revise what I learned.

VKBoy: @Zenith Learning grammar will take years, so take it slow and steady. That way, memories stick with you for longer times.

Reili: I do read mtl sometimes since I can't wait for chaps, but then I find myself reading in broken English and must stop.

Murakami: I'd like to correct that statement VKBoy. Learning grammar is easy
learning "usage" is hard.

VKBoy: lol, if you read mtl, your IQ drops. Believe me, this can affect a person's writing skill in the long run.

Reili: Definitely, which is why I stopped.

Author's Notes

I'm sure you've read this a few times in the previous chapters, but I had been reading MTL chapters for the past few years. I usually read "Completed" stories, and most of them are around 2-4k chapters each. Of course, I read the translated chapters first. After I reach the latest translated chapter, I will immediately jump to *cough* Google Translate.

Yeah~ I know. Reading chapters through Google Translate was the most…epic mistake I did in the past. I've finished World Defying Dan God, Battle Through the Heavens uhh…and a few more novels using Google Translate.

In the later years, I discovered lnmtl.com, which gave me a better translation (at least the names of the characters are not written like Cloud Che instead of Yun Che (Against the Gods). 

To be perfectly honest, If I didn't start writing, I would have continued to read these machine translated chapters even now. Reading MTL works if English is not your first language.

This is something that those with English as their main language will scoff at. However, for those who just want to read. As in reading something without worrying about anything else, then they won't care even if it's a machine translated chapter. As long as they will be able to read the NEXT chapter, then it's all good.

This is also the reason why I admire translators. If not for them, these stories that we are not aware of will not be able to grace us with their presence. I would like to thank the translators of my favorite novels like Lord of Mysteries, Release that Witch, Against the Gods, Cultivation Chatgroup, Second Coming of Avarice, and so many other titles that I won't be able to list here.

To my beloved readers, if there will come a time when you feel like writing a story of your own and you're reading machine translated chapters, please stop now. I'm saying this for your own good. 

I understand how you feel. Believe me I do, but for the sake of the story you're going to write in the future, heed my advice. Stop now, while you still have the chance. Learning how to write from scratch with broken English is a painful process.

Then again, if you find an editor who is a masochist, consider yourself lucky. Let them clean up your mess for you, so you can focus on writing your story, and learn the art of writing while you write.

P.S The Cover Drawing is not mine. I just find it nice so I used it. Full credits go to the owner.

Kong Xiuru thought of herself as a genius in learning foreign languages. Her memory had always been good and she had her own methods of remembering words. In her daily teaching process, she would pass down some of them to her students.
However, Kong Xiuru only realized now that her memory wasn't even worth trash as compared to Ling Yun's!
Once! Just once! He had learned it after just taking one look. She heard that he had no problem reading or writing it. Is… is he even human?
Can 'genius' still be used to describe him?
If he… if he has such a terrifying memorizing ability, why did he have to wait until the college entrance exams to exhibit it?!
Why was he so low-profile before?
Kong Xiuru didn't quite dare to believe that Ling Yun had really memorized over a thousand words so quickly. She took out the Grade 10 English textbook and started picking out some of the more difficult words for Ling Yun to read.
This time, she wasn't searching from the word lists behind the texts. Instead, Kong Xiuru was randomly selecting from within the texts.
In truth, Ling Yun wasn't just able to read the words out very well, he could even explain their meaning at will and easily write the words on paper.
Kong Xiuru tried seventeen words consecutively but each time was the same. There was no exception!
Kong Xiuru couldn't believe it at first. She had gotten Ling Yun to translate the English words to Chinese, as well as read and write them. Now, she was closing the textbook and she was describing the meaning of English words using Chinese and getting Ling Yun to translate it to English. On top of that, he even had to write and read those English words.
Then, she believed it! Whenever she said a Chinese word, Ling Yun would immediately translate it to English. Moreover, as he read the word, he would casually write that word on paper as well.
In one go, he had translated twenty to thirty words and they were all correct. Not one of them was wrong and he had not hesitated on a single one of them.
Kong Xiuru was dumbfounded. She felt as if she couldn't stand properly. She stopped getting Ling Yun to stay in the study room. Instead, she got him to come out and sit on the sofa.
Then, she closely scanned Ling Yun to the point that Ling Yun was a little scared. Was my performance too nature-defying?
Kong Xiuru knew that Ling Yun's learning of English was no longer limited to this half an hour of remedial. If he were to be given a day to memorize all the English words from the senior high school to university syllabuses, it wouldn't be a problem at all!
If that were the case, she could teach him some grammar on top of that and get him to memorize the senior high and even university level English texts. College entrance exams? Even taking the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) straight away wouldn't be a problem!
"Ling Yun, you're incredible!" Kong Xiuru suddenly burst out exclaiming.
And what came after shock? Adoration. Sincere shock would produce sincere adoration!
Even if Kong Xiuru was even more anti-men or even more indifferent towards men, she was still a woman in the end. Moreover, she was a virgin.
Ling Yun chuckled. "I'm just alright. It's mainly because Teacher teaches well. Otherwise, I wouldn't learn so quickly!"
Kong Xiuru blushed as she said in her heart. Your memory is so terrifying. What does that have to do with the English basics I've taught you? However, she still felt sweet and cheery on the inside. She felt proud that Ling Yun had been able to grasp the language so quickly.
"Ling Yun, Teacher will teach you a few commonly used sentence structures later. For example, sentence structures for things that have happened and things that are happening. Once you learn these, you will be able to completely learn English by yourself. As for listening, as long as you listen to some recordings, Teacher believes that your listening definitely won't be a problem."
Ling Yun thought to himself. Listening? That's the last thing I'm worried about. Within a thirty meter radius, if any wind blows or any grass moves, I would be able to hear it clearly.
"English, plainly said, is just about memorizing words. What kind of grades you get will depend completely on how many words you've grasped. Your teacher has one request for you."
Kong Xiuru was thinking as she spoke. She was guiding Ling Yun patiently and systematically.
"Hehe. Teacher, you can say whatever request you have. As long as it is within my ability, it definitely won't be a problem."
Ling Yun laughed as he spoke leisurely.
Kong Xiuru looked at the student who seemed to be the most talented one she had taught in her six years of teaching. Her heart was filled with emotions. She said softly, "Ling Yun, with your memory, memorizing five thousand words in two days would not be a problem at all. Your Teacher wants you to memorize all the English words in the senior high and university syllabuses."
Ling Yun pondered for a moment. He had memorized over a thousand words in half an hour. Memorizing five thousand in two days wouldn't be a problem, would it? Hence, he smiled brightly and said, "No problem. But I don't have the university textbook, Teacher!"
Kong Xiuru laughed softly. "Don't worry about that. Your Teacher has it at home!"
But then, she suddenly laughed mischievously. "If you really have a photographic memory, would you dare to memorize the Oxford English Dictionary?"
Lin Yun started perspiring madly. My beautiful form teacher, are you playing with me? Ling Yun had seen how thick that Oxford English Dictionary on Cao Shanshan's table was. Memorize that? Even if he had that kind of memory, he didn't have the kind of effort needed. Even if he had the kind of effort needed, he wasn't in the kind of mood to do it!
As for patience, Ling Yun, who practiced cultivation, had plenty of it. But what was the point of memorizing something useless?
Seeing that Ling Yun had no response, Kong Xiuru knew that her request was overboard. She couldn't help but look down on herself for a moment. Then, she said, "If you can do as Teacher has requested for the next two months, Teacher believes that you will be able to score full marks on your English college entrance exam."
Ling Yun had that self-belief too. Now, he already knew the phonetic alphabets. English words were not an obstacle anymore. He would first memorize all the English words, then memorize things like history texts and all of the senior high English texts. As for grammar or whatnot, even if he didn't understand it now, he would understand it by the end!
If one becomes familiar with the Three Hundred Tang Poems, even if he or she doesn't know poetry, he or she would be able to recite poetry. That was the logic Ling Yun had.
Lin Yun laughed gently. "Please do not worry, Teacher. I'll do as you've requested."
Kong Xiuru looked at Ling Yun with her bright eyes. For an instant, she lost herself in a trance. Then, she quickly regained her senses and said, "The fourth self-study period has started. This period, Teacher shall teach you grammar and sentence structures."
Ten minutes before the end of the fourth self-study period.
Kong Xiuru nodded at Ling Yun contently. She said gently, "Alright, let's end our remedial lesson here tonight. Your foundation of English is complete now… You've pretty much grasped it. After a few more remedial lessons, Teacher believes that your grades will soar."
Actually, in less than two periods, Kong Xiuru already realized that Ling Yun had grasped eighty percent of the senior high English knowledge.
Learning English grammar and sentence structures not only requires memory but also requires comprehension. And Ling Yun's ability to comprehend was not far behind his ability to memorize.
Regarding the basics of English, there really wasn't much more that Kong Xiuru could teach Ling Yun.
Going forward, Ling Yun would just have to memorize words and texts, and also do several college entrance mock exam papers and he would be fine. But for some reason, Kong Xiuru actually still wanted Ling Yun to come to her place for remedial lessons.
Hence, she had immediately changed her words on the spot. From saying that Ling Yun had completely grasped it, she said that he had pretty much grasped it. Then, she told him to come for a few more lessons.
Ling Yun remained silent and calm. He was very focused and serious when it came to studying. His body diffused a clear and refreshing smell. Kong Xiuru quite liked the feeling of being with this genius student.
Ling Yun stood up. "Thank you, Teacher. I will work hard. I shall go back to the classroom now. Goodbye, Teacher!"
Kong Xiuru smiled and said, "What are you saying goodbye for? Your Teacher still has to go back to the classroom to collect the test papers. Let's go together!"
"Oh…" Ling Yun was speechless. In his heart, he had been planning to run off right after leaving Kong Xiuru's place. He hadn't expected that Kong Xiuru would still go back to the classroom.
Ling Yun had a chance of breaking into the Fourth Level of the Physique Tempering Stage today. Hence, he couldn't wait to go to the river bank.
Kong Xiuru locked the door and entered the elevator with Ling Yun. The two of them left the teaching and administrative staff dormitories and walked side-by-side towards Grade 12 Class 6.
"Ling Yun, I heard from Cao Shanshan that you've caught up in your mathematics as well."
Kong Xiuru inquired as they walked.
Ling Yun answered casually, "I'm doing alright."
"In the future, try not to be absent. Learn more things. Your Teacher has high hopes for you now. You might even make it into Yan Jing University. That's the best educational establishment in China."
Ling Yun thought to himself. Yan Jing University? I've already promised Ning Lingyu that long ago! But he still laughed gently and replied, "I'll try."
"Mmm. It's good to have confidence. The lesson is ending soon. Let's hurry to the classroom." Kong Xiuru couldn't resist patting Ling Yun gently on the shoulder.
The two of them returned to the classroom. Ling Yun had only just sat back at his seat when the bell rang for the fourth period of night self-study.
Ling Yun immediately stood up as if there was a fire under his a*s. He casually tossed his textbooks on the table and prepared to leave the classroom.
Cao Shanshan's face was blushing as she looked at Ling Yun and said, "Ling Yun… Can… can you send me home…?"
Ling Yun looked at Cao Shanshan in surprise as he thought. Why do you want me to send you home at such a time?
However, since they had become table mates, Cao Shanshan had helped Ling Yun a great deal. Ling Yun really couldn't just reject her.
He could only go back to his seat as he looked at Cao Shanshan thoughtfully. "I really have a very important thing to do tonight? Can we do this another day?"
Cao Shanshan had spontaneously requested Ling Yun to send her home and it had already taken a great deal of courage. Although Ling Yun was rejecting her now, seeing that Ling Yun had come back to his seat just for her and that he was using a negotiating tone, she felt delightful.
"Mmm… Since you have an important thing, we'll do this another day then. I… I'll wait for you!" Cao Shanshan fiddled with her fountain pen as she said shyly.
"Alright then, I'll go now!" After saying that, Ling Yun flashed Cao Shanshan a bright smile before standing up and hinting to Cao Shanshan to make way for him.
Cao Shanshan's heart melted as she giggled and stood up shyly. She left her seat and moved aside for Ling Yun to go out.
Cao Shanshan watched Ling Yun's back view as he left. Then, she muttered to herself, "Finding back something that you've thrown away is really hard…"
After leaving the classroom, Ling Yun dashed to the school field. He put on an act and leisurely ran half a round before entering a shady area. Then, he leaped over the school's fences and activated the Thousand Miles Godly Steps, dashing straight toward the river bank.
"My precious Shichiyou herb, Big Brother has missed you to death!" Ling Yun had already undergone two nights of physique tempering without the help of the Shichiyou herb. Naturally, his heart was burning with eagerness.
Within two minutes, Ling Yun had reached the opposite bank of the Shichiyou herb. Then, he saw that, beside the Shichiyou herb, was a snow-white arctic fox!


Lingyun's tribulation has failed and he has descended onto Earth in the degenerate age. Step by step, he will rise up against the natural order!

Several days later!
To Lin Fan, there hadn't been much going on recently. He would just go to Cloud Street each day to sell some pancakes and show off to everyone a little.
"Sigh. These days are way too repetitive. It's really too boring sometimes! I envy Elder Dog. He gets to go out to play every day," said Zhao Zhong Yang as he played with his phone.
Lin Fan looked outside. Elder Dog was surrounded by a group of puppies. His face had a look of sadness on it.
However, because Zhao Zhong Yang couldn't understand dog speech, he had no idea that Elder Dog was complaining.
"Get out of my way, you puppies!"
"Argh, don't bite that area!"
Now that he had puppies, Elder Dog couldn't be free anymore. He had to take care of these puppies before going out. It was really exhausting.
At that moment, Lin Fan looked at his phone. There was a headline on Weibo.
"The World English Singing Competition has officially begun. International superstars are waiting for you!"
When he saw this headline, he was a little curious, so he clicked on it.
"There is only one Chinese applicant as of now, and her name is Jin Can!"
Lin Fan was curious about what this World English Singing Competition was about. But after taking a closer look, he understood. It was a global singing competition.
But who was this Jin Can?
She sounded unfamiliar. But thinking hard about it, he remembered she was a pretty good singer.
However, he suddenly realized that something wasn't right. I haven't done anything at all! How did I get dragged into this?
"Sigh, do we have no one else? Is Jin Can the only one who dares to sign up?"
"What's going on with that Wu Huan Yue? Hasn't she received lots of awards recently? Then why isn't she joining a big competition like this?"
"This is an international competition. What would a Chinese singer do there? Sing acapella?"
"Doesn't she have Master Lin as her composer?"
"Cheh, Master Lin can't do anything either. This isn't Chinese. Master Lin's English is terrible."
"How would you know?"
"Go and take a look at the Weibo of this Internet celebrity. He has talked about it before."
Lin Fan was a little stunned when he saw this. What that person said was true, but saying it so bluntly wasn't very good, was it?
Moreover, he had not done anything at all. They couldn't just talk about him like that. However, he still went to take a look at that Internet celebrity's account.
That Internet celebrity's name was really complex. After looking at it for a long while, he still didn't understand what it meant. But there was a single post from that Internet celebrity that received many replies.
"Let me tell you guys about Master Lin's background. He graduated from a rubbish university. During his school days, he was taking basic English. Even after taking the exam twice, he didn't pass. And both times, his score was only twenty-something. On his last try, the teacher took pity on him and let him pass. If you ask him to write an English song, he would never be able to do it. It's just impossible."
When Lin Fan saw this post, he was dumbfounded.
That's way too harsh, isn't it? How can he talk about my past like that as if he knows me?
Isn't it normal to be bad at English? It's already difficult to be good at one language. And Chinese is really broad! It's not so easy to learn two languages at once!
When he saw the comments below, Lin Fan couldn't take it anymore.
"Haha. I'm dying of laughter. This is the first time I've heard of someone failing so many times. How bad must his English be?"
"Yeah, I never thought that the all-knowing Master Lin would fail his English exam. I have to go and ask about this on Master Lin's Weibo to see if it's really true!"
"Brothers, do you feel very proud just because you know English and Master Lin doesn't? Aren't you ashamed of digging up Master Lin's past?"
"Ah, it seems like we can give up on Master Lin for this international singing competition. Without Master Lin, we're basically hopeless."
"Yeah. Wu Huan Yue was able to become famous all because of Master Lin. Initially, I was waiting for Wu Huan Yue to get rid of Master Lin. I hated and envied Wu Huan Yue. But I didn't think that the two of them were so close. I am really talented, but I can't put my talents to good use because I don't have someone like Master Lin."
Lin Fan quickly went back to his own Weibo. Indeed, things had gotten out of hand. Many people were asking about that post on his Weibo. It really left him helpless.
How the f*ck was he supposed to reply?
He had never thought that someone would criticize him for this. Then, he thought about it and came up with an idea. It seemed that this was the only way.
Very soon, he finished typing the reply and posted it.
"There were too many courses. English is boring, so I neglected it. There's nothing wrong with that."
Although that reason was quite far-fetched, at least he had expressed his thoughts.
In an instant, fans started commenting.
"Haha, I'm dying of laughter. Maser Lin has been humiliated and is angry now."
"I have to give in. I wouldn't give in to anyone else, but I give in to Master Lin."
"I feel like what Master Lin said makes sense. If he spent too much time learning English, he wouldn't have been able to cure so many diseases."
"What Master Lin said is the truth. There are so many things to learn. Why would he learn English? It's better to learn something that would be of use to society."
"I understand and support him, but it's a shame. With Master Lin's talents, if he knew English, he would be able to write amazing English songs. If he did that, Wu Huan Yue would definitely become the champion.
Lin Fan looked at the comments and calmly accepted them. It seemed that there were still many people that could understand him.
On Weibo.
Jin Can posted a comment.
"I have the best composer who specializes in English songs. I believe I will really become famous. A truly great singer should not be limited to her country because that would prevent her from showing her true abilities."
When this comment was posted, it instantly drew a large number of replies.
"I support you. I support you, Jin Can!"
"That's right. You didn't get the prize last time, but you shouldn't be saddened. That Wu Huan Yue only relies on Master Lin's songs. I heard that Master Lin's English is terrible. Wu Huan Yue is hopeless this time."
"That's right. I trust that Can Can will definitely win the competition."
When some celebrities saw Jin Can's post, they wanted to 'like' it as well. But then, they decided not to.
Although it hadn't been stated explicitly, it seemed like Jin Can was challenging Master Lin and Wu Huan Yue.
Hence, for their own safety, they decided not to get involved. It was best to stay a spectator.

Hello everyone, i think it is time to stop with this novel, because I have no motivation to write further. I began to write this novel, because I wanted to learn how it feels to write a novel and being an author. This was also my first novel I wrote. With this novel I only wrote without thinking, because it was only for getting experience and having fun. The time passed and i got better, maybe you noticed it. I know sometimes i wrote incoherent things, but it was because it was the first thing that came to my mind and i did not gave importance. I also began to write a second and a third novel, both were well planed and were better than this one. I also began to put the second one online and I even got a contract offered by Webnovel, but because my target is not to earn money, i declined the offer. 
I think now it is the time to stop with this novel definitely and concentrate on the other two, so thank you for reading my novel till now, without you I would not have become this good in English, compared to my level of English at the beginning, i am now much better.
Thank you for everything and Bye.
