Chapter 114 - Absorbed in Learning
Chapter 114: Absorbed in Learning
Feng Xia’s reminder only served to make everyone confused.
It was not just because there was no one inside the school. Even if there was really someone here, why would someone provoke them?
“S-Sect Master… What do you mean?”
First Elder Lei Shao looked over in confusion.
Feng Xia smiled relaxedly when he heard this, then he suddenly turned stern and said “How can such a great opportunity to learn the Dao and reconstruct one’s Dao Foundation come without challenges?”
“What the Sect Master says… really makes a lot of sense.”
“If such a huge opportunity can be seized so easily without any challenges, it would actually feel quite suspicious.”
“Never mind. If we can really increase our knowledge and supplement what’s lacking in our Dao Foundations… there’s no harm in trying!”
Everyone looked at one another for a moment. After a few moments, the first person to speak was the Fourth Elder. He smiled calmly and waved his sleeve as he walked into the empty classroom. “My cultivation level is the lowest among you. I haven’t even comprehended the Sword-Heart. If I don’t grasp this opportunity well, I’m afraid the gap between us will become bigger and bigger in the future!”
Crack—
The crisp sound of footsteps could be heard. With the Fourth Elder taking the lead to enter, the other five elders also followed him into the classroom.
“However, I’m an old man who has roamed unhindered for half of my life. I’ve even fought and killed in the Xuantian Battlefield. I’ve seen how much benefits divine beings outside Xuanwu Kingdom can gain here…” the rather stern and old-fashioned Second Elder Lu Jing shook his head and spoke in a deep voice.
He suddenly stopped speaking.
He was not the only one. The moment the six elders of the Thousand Autumn Valley stepped into the classroom, all of them seemed to have lost their souls. They stood rooted to the ground in a daze and no longer had any reactions!
“It seems that this place needs some modifications. The number of people who can enter this classroom needs to be controlled. Moreover, they have to stand in different areas. They can’t all just block the door. If we can, it’s best to arrange for a guard to be here to prevent anyone from disturbing the people here…”
Seeing this scene, Feng Xia exclaimed belatedly.
Then, a hint of anticipation appeared in his eyes.
To be fair, even if the six elders of the Thousand Autumn Valley were not the most talented in terms of cultivation, they were still rated among the best in the entire Xuanwu Kingdom.
In an environment where the spiritual energy of the world was already exhausted, who could cultivate to the peak of the Divine Power Realm without having outstanding talent?
The only problem was…
In the past, the Thousand Autumn Valley was on the verge of collapse. It could barely protect itself. It was naturally impossible to provide more resources for these elders to have any breakthroughs.
“It’s said that the Thousand Autumn Valley originally had more than ten elders and nearly a hundred officials. In the past hundred years, the number has decreased constantly. Coupled with the earlier calamity, these remaining six elders should all be dependable.”
Feng Xia rubbed his chin as he thought about his future plans. “Following the settings in many novels, now that there is the Heavenly Pattern Academy and the Heavenly Robe Pavilion, we still need a place that specializes in refining pills and equipment. I have to think of a way to raise the income of the Thousand Autumn Valley. I can’t rely on just the two mines we have now…”
The more he thought about it, the more his head hurt.
It was clearly not his forte to think about things.
“Right. After the six elders get their breakthroughs, I should be temporarily liberated. Unless we encounter a powerful enemy that’s difficult to deal with, I can leave it to them to deal with…”
The plan to slack off in the future gradually took shape in Feng Xia’s mind.
Half an hour passed in a flash.
The six motionless elders in the classroom suddenly reacted at this moment.
The first person to open his eyes was the First Elder. This forthright man’s face was flushed red at this moment as a low beast-like roar came from his throat, “Damn it… Don’t stop me! None of you stop me! I want to fight this brat to the death!”
Whoosh—
The other five elders instantly dispersed, leaving the First Elder alone on the spot. His big eyes widened, and for a moment, his iron tower-like figure looked especially innocent.
“Are you… really not going to stop me?”
A few seconds later, he probed.
Liu Chuanyuan immediately snorted. “What’s the point of stopping you? Does a barbarian like you listen? That youth is clearly a Dao Platform Realm expert, and not just any ordinary Dao Platform Realm expert. Even if he stands there and lets you hit him, you won’t be able to hurt him at all!”
The First Elder was so angry that his face and neck turned red.
Feng Xia clapped his hands and looked over with a smile. “Tell me, what did you encounter inside?”
Liu Chuanyuan sneered when he heard that. “We listened to that teacher’s lecture and… watched Barbarian Lei get beaten up.”
Third Elder Chu Zhuyun also nodded, agreeing with what Liu Chuanyuan said. There was a rare look of solemnity in her eyes. “That senior’s explanation was in-depth and easy to understand, directly focusing on the essence of divine beings’ cultivation. It’s really beneficial knowledge. In the current world… I would think that there’s no one who’s comparable with him.”
She thought for a moment and then added, “And I also watched the First Elder get beaten up.”
The Fourth Elder quickly chimed in, “I was also watching the First Elder getting beaten up… Ah, no, when that young man attacked, I saw hope that I could break through my own shackles and comprehend the Sword-Heart Integration!”
After Feng Xia went through one round of questioning, he found that the six elders had gained some astounding benefits.
This was especially true for First Elder Lei Shao. Not only did he solve many problems he had faced in his cultivation, but he also found hope that he could completely heal his injuries and even surpass his previous self. At the same time, he also went through a total of six beatings!
“This… This has been hard on you.”
Feng Xia’s lips twitched when he heard that. He could not help but pat the man’s shoulder to comfort him. “But don’t worry too much. With that teacher around, you won’t be beaten to death.”
First Elder: “…”
Sect Master, if you don’t know how to comfort others, then don’t do it!!
He coughed hard and stretched his aching body. With a solemn expression, he said in a low voice, “That senior is extremely powerful. If not for his explanation and guidance, I really don’t know that I have such a huge flaw in my cultivation!”
“Fortunately, all of us have not forged our Dao Platforms yet. Otherwise, once the Dao Platform is formed, the Dao Foundation will be fixed. By that time, if I want to make up for the flaw, I’d have to either destroy my cultivation and start over, or put in a hundred times more effort than reaching the Divine Power Realm!”
As he spoke, everyone felt lucky.
If Feng Xia had brought them here a few days later, the price they would have to pay in the future might be a terrifying astronomical figure!
“But now…”
The six elders looked at one another and spoke in unison.
“We still want to go back to class!”
“What do you mean? You haven’t even stabilized what you’ve just learned, and you already want to learn something new?”
Unexpectedly, Feng Xia suddenly blocked all of them at this moment. His hands and fingers were clenched into fists and a rather kind smile appeared on his face. “Before you go back… you should complete the homework assigned by me!”
As the six people watched on, the two fists rapidly enlarged!
