‘Whatever you say. What can he say when the old man is using me to beat his students?’
‘I’m mediocre?’
‘I’m mediocre to become a researcher?’
Even though I’m not the most monstrous batch of the Great Xia Civilization Academy, I’m still among the top!
To step into the sixth level of the Soaring Realm before the age of 30, and even have hopes of stepping into a higher realm in the next two years, was this called mediocrity?
‘Does Martial Uncle have some misconception about mediocrity?’
Su Yu hurriedly said, “Teacher, don’t worry. I’ll take care of both sides from now on. I’ve studied for many years, so I won’t give up now.”
“I’m glad you understand.”
Liu Wenyan said earnestly, “You cultivate very quickly. You didn’t pay attention to it in the past, but now that you do, you’ll soon reach the fourth level of the Origin Opening Realm, or even the fifth level. Perhaps you have some misconception and think that you’re more suitable for the War Academy’s path of the physical body …”
“But I have to say, even if you go to the War Academy, do you want to reach the ninth level of the Origin Opening Realm in one year? Do you want to reach the ninth level of the Ten-Thousand Stone Realm in five years?”
“This is considered a good genius. In nine years, he has a chance of stepping into the Soaring Realm.”
“But you have to understand how big the difference is between the first and sixth levels of the Soaring Realm. You might be stuck in the Soaring Realm for the next few decades.”
“You’re only at the fourth level of the Origin Opening Realm. Don’t get the wrong impression. You’re really very powerful and talented! We’re only a small city in the Nanyuan. Even the Nanyuan can produce four or five levels. What do you think of the other cities?”
“What do you think of the Grand Xia residence?”
At the side, Bai Feng chuckled and said, “I’ve paid attention to the other cities. There are a few geniuses at the seventh level of the Origin Opening Realm. Of course, the seventh level of the Origin Opening Realm is already out of reach for the Nanyuan. However, there are many at the seventh level of the Origin Opening Realm in the Great Xia Prefecture. There are even some at the eighth level!”
At the eighth level of the Origin Opening Realm, he had opened the Purple Palace Aperture and officially cultivated martial techniques. His vitality could barely be used continuously. At this time, the cultivator would have a certain level of combat strength.
“There are also those at the ninth level of the Origin Opening Realm. They’re only nine apertures away from stepping into the Thousand Pound realm. Of course, these guys haven’t stepped into the Thousand Pound realm yet. They’re waiting to enter the academy before advancing.”
This time, Liu Wenyan didn’t interrupt him. He looked at Su Yu and sighed. “It’s not that Teacher wants you to apply for the Great Xia Civilization Academy. I just want you to understand that your talent isn’t in the physical body. Even if you have talent, there is… still a huge gap.”
“The path of the physical body consumes a large number of natural treasures. You need blood essence, medicinal pills, battles, weapons… The scholarly would be poor but rich in martial arts!”
“Su Yu, as an ordinary person, if you don’t have any talent in literature, I’m very happy that you can enter the War Academy and fight for a chance!”
“But you have a talent for this. I hope you can go further and can go higher!”
“The Great Xia Civilization Academy doesn’t care about these things in the early stages. The consumption won’t be too great. Even if you don’t have money or combat power, you still have a chance of reaching the sky. But when you reach the War Academy… it’s very difficult to have hope!”
Liu Wenyan looked at him and said softly, “Do you know why I didn’t persuade others? Or even Liu Yue? Even if Liu Yue applied for the War Academy! Because her family is rich and can support her future cultivation.”
“Su Yu, this is the reason why Teacher hopes that you can walk the path of civilization. I hope that you won’t become an ordinary person because of your material shortcomings. Even if you have talent… resources won’t be given to you for nothing. There won’t be a free lunch in this world!”
“There are many geniuses in the War Academy. You’re not outstanding, so it’ll be harder for you. I hope you can go more smoothly.”
Su Yu nodded vigorously, feeling a little touched. He knew that these were his teacher’s heartfelt words.
For a commoner like him, it was indeed difficult to afford some things. If his future was set at Ten-Thousand Stone Realm, it would naturally not be a problem. However, if his future was set at quickly rising into the sky, his family was clearly not enough to support all of this.
“Teacher, I know. I didn’t think so much about it before. I didn’t think so deeply. I’ll work on it from here.”
“I’m glad you understand.”
Liu Wenyan smiled. “In the next few days, let Bai Feng guide you. If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask him. Even though he’s not outstanding in the Great Xia Civilization Academy, it’s enough to guide you.”
Bai Feng was speechless.
After being said so many times by Liu Wenyan, Bai Feng almost doubted himself.
Am I really not outstanding?
I, Bai Feng, am quite famous in the Great Xia Civilization Academy and even in the Great Xia Prefecture, right?
I have a chance to advance above Soaring Realm before the age of 30. Moreover, I’m one of the few assistant researchers before the age of 30…
Why did he feel like he was not worth mentioning here?
‘Why?’
Bai Feng was extremely depressed. Martial Uncle, when you said that I was mediocre, think about yourself. Why do you have to belittle yourself when you have more than 70 resistance?!
Glancing at Su Yu and seeing that he seemed to agree with Liu Wenyan’s words, Bai Feng smiled. Young people were really inexperienced.
‘You’ll know what your Brother Feng is like when you get into the Great Xia Civilization Academy.’
‘Then you’ll understand how difficult it is for you to get to where I am!’
Don’t discuss with ants about the size of elephants. Ants have limited imagination.
Only by standing at a certain height could ants understand that elephants were huge beyond imagination.
“I’ll be staying at Nanyuan Academy for the next two days. I’ll leave in two days. You can find me anytime.”
After saying this, Bai Feng took the book and left with a smile.
When he was far away, Liu Wenyan suddenly said in a low voice, “Learn well. You have to cherish these two days! Use your greatest wisdom to exploit him and empty him. Even though you can’t do it, this is the greatest time Teacher can buy you. Even if you reach the Great Xia Civilization Academy, you might not have this chance, understand?”
“I understand it now!”
Su Yu was slightly shocked. Did his teacher mean that even if he went to the Great Xia Civilization Academy, he might not be able to receive guidance from a researcher?
“Assistant researcher course, one class, five merit points!”
“One lesson, one hour!”
Liu Wenyan said softly, “Two days, 48 hours. Don’t sleep, go and learn! If you finish learning, you might not be able to earn 240 merit points in a few years. Go, I believe in you!”
“Thank you, Teacher!”
At this moment, Su Yu’s eyes lit up!
Master and disciple looked at each other and smiled broadly.
In the distance, Bai Feng suddenly felt a malicious intent attack him. He shuddered and turned around. He couldn’t help but curse softly. Martial Uncle was going to set him up?
How would he screw me over?
