Chapter 329: I want you all to save face
The princess accompanied Xiao Jiu and the eldest sister to the courtyard where she lived, watched Xiao Jiu and the eldest sister come out of the sedan chair, and then looked at the sedan chair carried by the eight people and the porter who carried the sedan chair, and did not see anything different. When the princess invited the masters who had followed her, there was an announcement at the door, and the dean of the Royal Demon Academy and the two old gentlemen had already arrived. Xiao Jiu stood up, walked quickly to the gate of the courtyard, and saluted the dean and the old gentleman. The princess watched Xiao Jiu's actions and nodded thoughtfully. Xiao Jiu introduced the three courtesies into the princess's courtyard, and then asked the three: "Three gentlemen, why did you come here so quickly, I thought I would have to wait for a while." Without waiting for the dean to speak, the two old gentlemen said: "I heard that the son invited us, we know that there must be something big, so naturally we have to put down everything and hurry up, you are our food and clothing parents." Saying that, the two old gentlemen pulled Xiao Jiu and laughed, obviously the relationship between the three of them was extraordinary.
After Xiao Jiu introduced the masters who followed the princess to each other, everyone sat down. Xiao Jiu said to the masters who followed: "Everyone has been getting along for a long time, and naturally has feelings, and Princess Wenya is also deeply worried about the situation you encountered because you advocate peace and do not approve of war. For this reason, I also asked me to find a way, everyone is a rare talent, and it is disrespectful to everyone to be idle like this. After thinking about it before and after, I personally think that you are all well-educated people, so you will serve as a gentleman at the Royal Demon Martial Arts Academy, create many masters for the mainland, and explore the highest level of martial arts, I don't know what you think. This is the dean of the Royal Demon Martial Academy and the two old gentlemen, if there is anything that everyone can put on the table to talk about, they can talk about it directly. Two old gentlemen can also share your feelings and opinions. β
When the masters heard Childe's words, they first accepted it from the bottom of their hearts, especially because they were against war and loved peace, which made them feel very comfortable, and they also looked at Princess Wenya gratefully. Everyone looked at the three people in the lead, and one of them thought for a moment. He said with his own identity: "We have received the kindness of the child, but as the steward of the Divine Spirit Hall, we are afraid of being the laughing stock of others, so we can discuss and decide again." After speaking, he coughed dryly twice. "Your Shenling Hall is a fart, and you think it's terrible to mess around there. To tell the truth, with your virtue, if it weren't for the son's words, hum want you to be all face-saving, don't twist like a woman, make me disgusted when I look at it. How can you not accept it? Okay, come here, just the three of you come at random, and see if you can go through a few moves under my old man's hands, although your realm is higher than mine. The old gentleman did not wait for the others to speak, and the old gentleman who spoke was already holding the sword hanging from his waist, and stood up and walked to the open space in the middle of the courtyard, waiting for the other man to come and fight. The masters all looked at the leader who spoke. Here his skill is the highest, I saw this leader, pinched for a while, under everyone's gaze. He stood up and said, "Okay, then I'll compare with the old gentleman a few times, and please forgive me if there is any mistake." So saying, he walked to the middle of the courtyard, stood opposite the old gentleman, and took the great sword he was carrying behind him. Get in a pose.
When the old gentleman saw it, he knew that he was letting himself attack first, and then the other party would attack him. This is a customary practice on the mainland. They all use strength to attack, in order to identify each person's martial arts and the use of strength, and to divide the high and low.
The old gentleman said: "Since you let me do it first, then you don't regret it." After speaking, he drew his sword and made a move, all in one go. As the shining sword light crossed, everyone only heard the sound of "dang chang", and then the sword light flashed, and the old gentleman shouted to another companion with a happy face as if he was nothing: "Old man, my sword has finally opened, and I have been suffocated to death all these years, and today I finally experience the joy of using a sword." Said to the leader who was still stunned and saluted: "I'm sorry, I really want to use the sword to compare with people, but no matter who sees this sword, it is respectful and polite to avoid, I take this sword, I want to try it with someone, how many years, just hang it like this and never use it, I'm sorry today, I took your big sword to try it, and I apologize to you again." After saying that, he saluted again.
The leader looked at the old gentleman with a wry smile, and reluctantly threw away the half-broken sword in his hand and said: "The old gentleman is really a good sword, this sword can be called an artifact in the continent." This was ridiculing the old gentleman for defeating himself with an artifact, but he didn't expect the old gentleman to reply unexpectedly: "This is indeed an artifact that cannot be seen on the mainland at all, and because of this, I can't help but itch my hands and break your big sword." Then he said to Xiao Jiu: "Childe, we have been studying the exercises and martial arts you left behind over the years, and we all feel very profound, as if there is no end. We always feel that we can't achieve what we say about the sword, and we don't know if the son will give us a solution. After speaking, he said to the leader: " You also come and sit down, to be honest, the two of us used the exercises that we could get in the past to cultivate to the realm of the Martial King, thinking that this would be the case until death, although there were a lot of jokes here, but in a few years it has broken through, I know that your Divine Spirit Hall has a lot of exercises that have been looted all over the continent, but to put it mildly, you are the same as the scene we had at that time, where we know what the Heavenly Dao is, what kind of Cheng dΓΉ we want to achieve in our cultivation, we only know how to break through the void, but we don't know what to do when we break through the void, and what is the ultimate purpose of cultivation. So for the sake of letting me make a move, I advise you to stay here, the opportunity is rare, here you will find the road of martial arts, we have just touched the edge, here we can achieve the goal we are pursuing, of course, we have to work hard. Said to Xiao Jiu: "Childe, I know this is not the time, but it is difficult for you to find it when you are busy, so let's see the foundation of your exercises, the flying sword, so that we can really achieve it." As he spoke, he looked at Xiao Jiu longingly.
Xiao Jiu nodded with a smile and said, "As long as the two old gentlemen have requirements, of course I will do what I can." Then he glanced at the porter who carried the sedan chair, and saw one pushed out of the crowd, blushing and coming to everyone, only to see that according to the request of the son, he jumped up in an instant, and a giant sword appeared under his feet at some point, flying skillfully in the courtyard. These masters, including the dean and the two old gentlemen, were dumbfounded, and after the demonstration, the big man came to Xiao Jiu, and Xiao Jiu nodded in praise. At this time, the old gentleman praised repeatedly, and the big man hurriedly said: "Sir, don't praise again, I am the worst of these sedan chairs, so only I will perform." He lowered his head in embarrassment. The leading master asked, "Do you rely on the ability of the sword to fly?" The big man glanced at the leader coldly and said, "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense, although your cultivation seems to be very high, but in our eyes, you are nothing." With just your group, I can kill you empty-handed, and if I use my sword, I can kill you in the blink of an eye. Hum. β
The leader was robbed by the big man, and he was immediately very angry, and he was about to have a seizure The dean said: "Okay, people are guests after all, and it's normal for people to not know some things." Don't just look at them as carrying sedan chairs, everyone in our Wuling country knows that the highest cultivation is not the former and current protector of our country, but the big men who carry the sedan chair for Gongzi, and the women who follow Gongzi. As he spoke, he pointed to the twins who had been standing behind Xiao Jiu and said without making a sound: "Many of the masters they have received in their hands are not worse than you in cultivation. Childe is right, people should not be divided according to what they do, it is just the means to make a living, what matters is the achievement of their own efforts. You don't have to always hold a shelf of the Spirit Hall, saying something very bad, as long as the son is willing, your Spirit Hall will disappear in a blink of an eye, don't misunderstand the kindness of the son and the princesses. Just a few of you, any of us sitting here will take care of you. I also knew that Childe was very busy, so I decided that I would either stand up and follow me, teach martial arts, learn new things and improve my cultivation. Either I'm going to take action and kill you all, so as not to leave a legacy in the ensuing battle with the Spirit Hall. β
At this time, all the masters knew that this was a chance to give themselves a chance to live, and thinking about it, no country would leave the opponent master who was about to go to war by his side, leaving hidden dangers for his country. At this time, everyone also stood up and expressed their willingness to follow the dean, but the leader who had just spoken was still sitting still. Seeing this, the dean was already standing in front of him, his hand already holding the hilt of the sword hanging from his waist. At this time, two masters who came with him said: "Head, what else do you have, it's that the Divine Spirit Hall doesn't want us, it's not that we betray the Divine Spirit Hall, go, we can still be together and practice together to teach the students, isn't that also good." β
The leader stood up at this time and said: "It's not that I don't want to go, it's just that although we people can still be called masters on the mainland, we are just eating idle meals in Wuling Country, seeing that all the people are smarter than us, we are still used as teachers there, so don't be ashamed to go a long time ago." Childe, see if you can find us a job that we can really do, let us support ourselves, and don't give you anything to be ashamed of, lest you be embarrassed by saying that Childe recruited us. β
Xiao Jiu smiled and said: "You are wrong, it's not that you can become a teacher if you have high martial arts skills, the knowledge of students depends on the cultivation of all aspects." The martial arts of the mainland are left by countless predecessors, and we can only carry them forward, not exclude them. In the future, the academy will recruit students from all over the mainland, and how can it be done without instructors who are proficient in the mainland's martial arts, the key is how to inherit and carry it forward. I also happened to have some time today, so I went to the academy with you to have a look, and I wonder if the dean agrees. β
When the dean heard this, he hurriedly walked out, nagging: "I'm embarrassed to say, every year I have to write a letter of appointment to my son, and my son has received it every time, and he has never come to lecture once, so I can't let him slip away today." β
When the group came to the academy, the two old gentlemen told everyone about the environment and treatment of the academy, and the jokes they had made, and they first came to the library building of the academy, when the dean was complaining that there were too few books, Xiao Jiu looked at the wide hall, turned his hand over, and the rows of bookshelves instantly filled the entire hall. The dean was not surprised, but ran to the bookshelf, looked at the books that filled the shelves, and kept exclaiming: "God, this is a heaven-level martial art." Ah, this is a god-level exercise.
