Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 50 Dreams, Pursuits, and Time Capsules
Azhi stared at the shining sword edge and felt that his dagger had never been as dazzling as it was today.
Tang Zheng pointed his short sword straight ahead, and the stars behind him almost couldn't be suppressed and were about to rise up!
If he did not have amazing self-control and remembered at the critical moment that they could not use star power, his own star power would be enough to knock the dagger in Tang Zheng's hand to the ground.
"Who are you?" The clear light in Azhi's eyes gradually faded, and he asked quietly in a slightly lowered voice.
"Haha." Tang Zheng threw the dagger, caught the blade with his backhand, and handed the hilt to Azhi, "Who are you?"
"..." Azhi took his own sword and was silent for a moment. Even though he was inexperienced, he knew that his identity could not be disclosed casually.
"I am your teacher!" Tang Zheng smiled and answered his question.
Azhi raised his head and looked at Tang Zheng with a little more seriousness and a little more new emotion in his eyes.
Before going out to travel, Kageyama's heirs need to maintain an absolutely innocent heart in order to ensure the speed and quality of their training. Because only by living a life as pure as a blank sheet of paper all year round will they have no distracting thoughts in their minds, and only then can they improve in martial arts and far surpass their peers.
There is no genius in Xingyao Continent who is so extraordinary that it is beyond explanation.
There must be a reason behind the emergence of every genius!
Moreover, their reasons are rarely because they suddenly have some kind of adventure, suddenly become extremely awesome, or suddenly become a genius admired by everyone.
"Hey, what did I promise you just now?" Azhi stood up from the ground, turned his head and kicked the stone on the ground, without looking at Tang Zheng again.
"If I beat you, you must respect your teacher and behave yourself during your time in Tangjiabao. If you lose to me, I can make you do one thing."
"..."Azhi's foot, which was kicking the stone, suddenly stopped.
"What's the problem?" Tang Zheng asked with a smile.
"You cheated me!" Ah Zhi realized after the fight what he had promised!
Isn't it the same thing that Tang Zheng beat him and he lost to Tang Zheng?
Not far from the sidelines, another voice was heard: "Hohohohoho..."
Azhi then realized that Ghost Grandpa had been watching the game on the sidelines!
However, even though he was bullied by Tang Zheng, Ghost Grandpa had no intention . He just turned around and walked away with a smile.
Ah Zhi's face turned red and black: "Okay! I will listen to you. But, if you ask me to do something, I can't just agree to it. If it's too big..."
"You are so young, what big things can you do?" Tang Zheng curled his lips at him.
"You! I..." Ah Zhi was so blocked that he wanted to scratch Tang Zheng's face a few times!
"Okay, I won't make it difficult for you. All I ask of you is that you practice the basics with me for an hour every afternoon, without using star power!"
"Huh?" Ah Zhi was stunned for a moment, "Why?"
He is the next Shadow King of Kageyama, he can definitely do more!
Even if Tang Zheng asked him to help deal with the assassins sent by Shadow King Ling, he had the authority to do it.
But what kind of request is this from Tang Zheng?
"Because this is the origin of combat. Returning to the original state will allow you to better adapt to the most extreme combat!" Tang Zheng said clearly.
"I mean, why! Why did you teach me this..."
Tang Zheng smiled , "Didn't I tell you? I'm your teacher."
Azhi stood there in a daze for a long time.
After exactly thirty breaths, he suddenly lowered his head and bowed to Tang Zheng.
Then, he snorted a little uncomfortably and chased after the ghost grandfather.
"Hey, you're not allowed to be late for class tomorrow morning!" Tang Zheng shouted at him.
"I won't go to such a boring class!" Azhi answered from a distance.
…
Azhi ran away, and Tang Xiaotang and the others finally came back to their senses from their shock.
Azhi's combat experience had already opened their eyes, but they didn't expect that Tang Zheng could actually knock Azhi down!
Immediately, a group of boys and girls surrounded Tang Zheng and said, "Master, Master, is it really that useful not to use star power to fight?"
"Returning to the original state really makes sense." Several coaches couldn't help but nod in agreement.
"I want to learn, too! Can the Master teach us too?"
"Ahem..." Tang Zheng raised his hands in surrender, "Wait, wait...what's so reasonable?"
"What you just said to Azhi..." Tang Xiaotang pointed at Azhi's back.
"How old is he? How old are you? Do you believe what I say to comfort a child?" Tang Zheng was speechless. "What's the point of returning to the original state? Since you have star power, why don't you use it well? Why bother?"
"..."Tang Xiaotang almost bumped into a clan sister.
"Then...then..." A coach looked at Ah Zhi weakly as he walked away, "Why did you do this?"
Tang Zheng looked up at the sky and lowered his head: "Well, this... is a learned subject."
Several instructors listened attentively: "What is this knowledge?"
"On how to teach a naughty child a lesson while protecting your own personal safety!"
…
Tang Zheng returned to his own courtyard and practiced the "Dagger Technique" dozens of times, carefully sensing the dozens of newly generated one-star forces. After wiping the sweat off his face, he began to prepare for tomorrow's morning class.
Before I knew it, the book "The Spring and Autumn History of the Purple Gold Empire" has almost been finished.
The Purple Gold Empire lasted only a hundred years, but it was a major milestone for the entire Xingyao Continent to quickly step into the civilized era from the tribal era. Although the aristocratic families are now divided and the country-like system may not emerge in the future, even a vase left over from the imperial era is still regarded as a treasure, not to mention the vast cultural and martial arts treasures of the imperial era.
"What shall we talk about tomorrow?" Tang Zheng put down the "Spring and Autumn History of the Purple Gold Empire" beside him and rested his head on his arm, unable to fall asleep.
Treasure Pavilion, Hundred Refining Workshop, Dagger Bet, Casting...
In the Hidden Blue Villa, a small group of people hiding in the dark...
Tangjiabao, a naughty child of unknown origin...
"I didn't expect that even though he's still a rookie, he has done so much." Tang Zheng laughed as he thought about it, and picked up his purple gold belt again, "Old buddy, how about I tell you about my gaming experience tomorrow?"
Of course, the purple and gold belt could not respond to him.
Tang Zheng closed his eyes and smiled, "Oh no, what if I'm caught and dissected as a monster?"
It's late at night.
Tang Zheng was thinking about his half bowl of instant noodles and finally fell into a deep sleep.
On the windowsill, the gorgeous and enchanting petals dance gently in the night breeze.
The next day, in the lecture hall of Tangjiabao.
All the disciples of Tangjiabao are here!
Azhi sat reluctantly in the second row of the lecture hall.
Tang Zheng kicked the door open as usual: "Hi~ little bastards!"
All the children of Tangjiabao stood up: "Haha!"
Azhi was stunned for a long time, what on earth were they talking about?
"I haven't seen you for a long time. Did you miss me?" Tang Zheng placed a thick stack of papers on the table.
"Think!" The little bell sounded the loudest.
"So is the teacher more handsome today?"
"No!" They answered in unison.
Ah Zhi's eyes widened...
Of course he could read and write, and even had a rough understanding of poetry, but he still remembered how he attended classes.
The thirty-six heirs of Kageyama's generation all received unified classes and took monthly assessments. At that time, his sister, who was half a year younger than him, failed the assessment in the second month. After that, Achi never saw her in Kageyama again.
It was not until more than a month later, when the teacher who taught them how to use poison explained and demonstrated to them how each different poison worked in the star veins and how to deal with it after being poisoned, that he saw the body of his sister, hanging on the rack in front of them...
Azhi has gotten used to it in Yingshan. No matter what he learns or does, he is always under the threat of death. He never knew that learning to read and write could be so easy and enjoyable.
"Hey, Ah Zhi!" Tang Zheng knocked on the table, "Don't be distracted!"
"Tsk..." Ah Zhi didn't expect that he would be caught when he was distracted for a moment, and snorted unhappily.
After Tang Zheng called Ah Zhi back to his senses, he called Tang Xiaotang up and distributed the stack of papers he had brought to each student.
Just when everyone looked doubtful, Tang Zheng turned around and wrote two words on the white paper hanging in front of him - dream.
"We won't have any lectures today. Everyone, please listen carefully to what I'm going to say next." Tang Zheng put down the pen in his hand and said.
The entire lecture hall immediately became silent.
Tang Zheng looked at their expressions and laughed: "Just listen carefully, there's no need to be so nervous."
But everyone was still very nervous, afraid of missing a word.
"I have said a lot in the past month. Even the youngest Tang Dou can write a lot. Today, I will not say anything more or write anything...you write it!" Tang Zheng pointed at the two words behind him, "Write down your dreams and aspirations on paper. Write down...what kind of person do you think you will become in ten years..."
“……”Everyone’s eyes in the lecture hall lit up.
"After you finish writing, don't show it to anyone, not even me. I'll put it in a sturdy box and bury it underground. Ten years later, we'll come back here and dig it out and read it together. How about that?"
