Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 460 - 42 School Starts, Li Xueqian
Chapter 460 -42 School Starts, Li Xueqian
This world was suppressed by the Destiny Dynasty.
Wang Sheng initially thought that only the cultivation levels of living beings were suppressed, but now it seemed that not only cultivation levels, but many other things had disappeared under the suppression of the Destiny Dynasty. Now that the Destiny Dynasty was gradually being erased, these things were reappearing.
It appeared that the world was not changing, but rather returning to its true nature.
However, this implied that the heritage of another world was unimaginable.
Energy stones existed in other worlds too, and although Wang Sheng was not impressed by them, he had to admit that their existence allowed the cultivators of a world to develop much faster.
The cultivators of another world might be even more fearsome than imagined.
“It’s both a good thing and a trouble!”
For a world, the more good things, the better, as only with these things could the strength of the world become even more powerful.
And the more cultivators, the better it was for Wang Sheng.
“But it’s not too late, at least it’s not permanently gone.”
Huangtian didn’t know what Wang Sheng was thinking, only feeling that although he understood every word his master said, they still sounded somewhat confusing.
“Master, what do you mean by the world returning to normal?”
“Literally, the existence of the Destiny Dynasty suppressed this world. Energy stones originally existed, and now they are just reappearing, which is a good thing; you don’t need to think too much about it, just focus on development, as we don’t know when that world will come.”
Having not appeared for so long, Wang Sheng knew that there must be some restrictions for that world to come to theirs.
This was an opportunity that needed to be utilized to its maximum potential.
“Yes, Master.”
Wang Sheng nodded and said, “If there’s nothing else, you can leave now!”
The completion of the Five Elements Sword Formation had greatly enhanced his combat capability, but what mattered most was still his personal cultivation level.
During his research, he had not neglected his cultivation; although he had made considerable progress, it was still not enough. He still fell far short of the sixth stage of Refining Qi into God. During this period, he had not used the pure spiritual power harvested from the Spirit World. Now that the Sword Formation was complete, he had to start elevating his cultivation level.
“There’s nothing else, but the academy has been completely built and the first batch of students will soon enroll, would you like to visit?”
Datong College, initially planned to open a year ago, had been delayed for another year after discussions with Wang Sheng. Now, all the preparations were completed and it was operational.
Wang Sheng thought about it and ultimately nodded.
He had been involved in the academy, and he really wanted to see what it had turned out to be.
“When is it?”
“New Calendar, Year Seven, January Sixth!”
This date was already set, representing a new beginning in the early next year, with about half a year still remaining.
“Okay, I’ll be there.”
With a full smile, Huangtian left while Wang Sheng entered into seclusion.
Time passed, and Year 6 of the New Calendar just went by.
In the Sixth Year of the founding of Datong, the nation was united, and although still integrating externally, everything was proceeding smoothly in a thriving manner.
Today was a very special day.
That was because the Datong College, created with the nation’s effort, officially began its teachings, and the first batch of students enrolled.
The strength of the official establishment of Datong was clear to any Martial Artist.
Even though it was only initially established, every Martial Artist knew it couldn’t be simple; the strength must be formidable.
Of course, some still didn’t understand exactly what kind of model Datong College was.
They all knew about academies, but those had previously trained only meek scholars, never Martial Artists.
Some said it was just like the family and sect powers, only under a different name.
Thus, Datong specifically designated the day of the students’ enrollment as an open day, allowing the outside world to understand the essence of Datong College.
The location of Datong College was already unique, situated at the core of the emergence of the Spirit World.
Consequently, many Martial Artists attended, including Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters.
There were flyers or similar items inside the academy.
“The chancellor of Datong College is actually the Leader!”
“The Leader must be just a temporary appointment; look at this, this is the most astonishing!” said a Grandmaster Level Martial Artist.
“What is it, all this fuss?” his companion looked unconsciously and then was also stunned into speechlessness.
The news quickly spread.
There were twelve Great Grandmaster Level Martial Artists as masters at Datong College, who would personally instruct the enrolled students.
Great Grandmasters!
Even though Martial Saints had emerged, Great Grandmasters were still top-tier powerhouses and extremely rare.
Datong College had twelve of them serving as masters.
What a grand scheme!
“Is this true, or is it just a title like the Leader?”
“Datong College said they would instruct personally, it must be correct, otherwise it would be easily debunked. Those students really have twelve Great Grandmasters teaching them, not to mention the Grandmasters.”
The speaking Martial Artist’s eyes were red with excitement.
Great Grandmasters were such esteemed figures, and as a Grandmaster, it was already difficult to see one, let alone receive guidance.
Yet, the students of Datong College had twelve of them as instructors, what a luxury.
It’s known that the first batch of students entering Datong College even included people who weren’t Martial Artists.
Envy! Jealousy!
Such feelings permeated everyone, wishing they could replace them.
Unfortunately, Datong College did not accept older Martial Artists.
They could only envy.
Then, they saw another name.
[Zhu Xiao, Honorary Dean of Datong College]
Martial Saint Zhu Xiao, Preacher Zhu Xiao.
This name was familiar to all martial artists, and it was also among them.
Yet there was another name that surprised and shocked all the martial artists even more, [Wang Sheng, Honorary Dean of Datong College].
Most importantly was the introduction that followed, the Leader’s Master.
Datong Leader Huangtian had a mysterious and incredibly powerful master. Those slightly informed knew that Datong’s ability to unify the surrounding areas was inseparable from this Leader’s teacher, reputedly the strongest individual in Datong, even Martial Saint Zhu Xiao was no match for him.
“Will he come?”
Countless people were anticipating the appearance of the Leader’s Master.
On the other hand, the students had completed their registration days before.
But it was only today that they became aware of the depth of the academy, with more than ten Great Grandmasters, everyone was internally thrilled.
“Hurry to the assembly, the dean is going to give a speech.”
All students gathered at the academy’s training field.
Meanwhile, Huangtian was respectfully introducing the situation of the academy to two individuals.
A nation’s Leader was so respectful, yet had no intentions of his own.
These two individuals, one was Martial Saint Zhu Xiao, and the other was even the Leader’s teacher, known as the strongest individual.
“Sir, Manager Zhu, the college admitted ten thousand students this time, seven thousand three hundred of them are martial artists, the rest are all non-martial artists…”
Wang Sheng listened to Huangtian’s words without showing much reaction, then asked, “How many are in the Cultivation Academy?”
“Two thousand eight hundred…”
Less than thirty percent chose the Cultivation Academy, and even in the past few days, many must have chosen it due to lack of qualification.
Wang Sheng was not surprised by this result.
Ultimately, this world was a world where martial artists prevailed.
What he was most concerned about was actually the Mechanical Department.
“What’s the situation with the Mechanical Department?”
When it came to the Mechanical Department, Huangtian showed a surprised expression, then spoke, “This time in the Mechanical Department, we actually recruited quite a few martial artists, though many are those who chose it as a second option from the Martial Arts Institute, but there was one person who was surprising.”
“What sort of surprise?”
“That person is called Li Xueqian, eighteen years old, a Seventh-Grade Martial Artist, and he’s not from any major power. He became a martial artist due to a fortuitous opportunity in the Spirit World. With such aptitude, he would rank among the top five even in the Martial Arts Institute, but he opted for the Mechanical Department voluntarily.”
“Oh? He chose it voluntarily?” Wang Sheng was also quite surprised, such aptitude was indeed formidable, “There wouldn’t be any trickery, would there?”
Huangtian shook his head, “I have already investigated, there’s no trickery. In fact, he is genuinely passionate about Mechanical Techniques and has researched quite a bit on his own, becoming a martial artist also for the further advancement of Mechanical Techniques.”
Having such peerless martial arts talent and yet choosing Mechanical Techniques was something Huangtian couldn’t comprehend.
Although he knew that the future achievements of Mechanical Techniques were not simple, he still felt it was a pity, but he respected Li Xueqian’s choice.
Wang Sheng, however, became interested.
“Later, let me meet this person.”
Huangtian’s expression changed to shock, did the sir really value Mechanical Techniques so highly?
It seems he still underestimates it.
These words were overheard by a nearby Great Grandmaster, especially one among them.
Lu Yuan, the dean of the Mechanical Department.
He took note of this person called Li Xueqian.
A person valued by the Leader’s teacher was naturally not to be missed.
After the student assembly, the speech swiftly concluded, and afterward, Wang Sheng also met the person called Li Xueqian.
He immediately discerned the aptitude of this person.
He could be considered unparalleled, even possessing some hidden talents. If he pursued the path of a martial artist, his prospects would certainly be smooth.
“Are you sure you want to go to the Mechanical Department? If you pursue the path of a martial artist, your achievements would be astonishing.”
Li Xueqian had already known about Wang Sheng’s identity before coming, the Leader’s Master, meeting such an eminent figure made him quite nervous, but hearing these words, he took a deep breath and calmed down.
“Can’t I cultivate if I go to the Mechanical Department?”
“Of course, you can.” Let alone the Mechanical Department, even the Cultivation Department would allow it.
“That’s settled then, I won’t regret it, no change in thoughts.” Li Xueqian thought Wang Sheng was also there to persuade him, several people had tried to persuade him in the past few days, but he would not change.
After hearing this, Wang Sheng, expressionless, asked, “Why did you choose the Mechanical Department?”
After hearing this, Li Xueqian remained silent for a while, then said, “When I was a child, my mother fell critically ill, and ultimately it was a carriage that transported her to the city, sadly it was too late, the doctor said it would have been good if it had been earlier… At that moment, I wished the carriage could have been faster…”
New novel chapters are published on freewёbn૦νeɭ.com.
Actually, it was a simple story, but it was Li Xueqian’s obsession.
Later he encountered many other events, seeing those tears, he thought of his mother, and after learning about Mechanical Techniques, he made his decision.
“I want to create something using Mechanical Techniques that’s ten times, a hundred times faster than a carriage, and affordable for everyone!”
A very simple reason, no grand ambitions.
But Wang Sheng laughed when he heard this.
“Very good, I see potential in you, take these things, I hope you can realize your dream.”
He handed over four modified volumes of Mechanical Technique, initially planned for the Mechanical Department, but now given away.
After the handover, he left, together with Zhu Xiao.
Leaving behind a crowd exchanging puzzled looks…
