Chapter 25: Genius among geniuses? The two people sitting in the stone pavilion drinking tea would surely be very elegant if they burned some incense. However, Lin Xiangyun did not have much image. He put one foot on the edge of the stone bench, holding a small teacup in his hand, and leaned to look at the young man standing with weights outside the pavilion. Chen Mo had a total of 40 kilograms of sandbags on his body, but his body did not shake at all. "You're standing quite steadily. Oh, you've finally found your way." Lin Xiangyun said. From the time he entered the inner courtyard till now, Old Wu finally had the chance to feel relieved. He finally got a chance to show his face a little. Although being well-versed in everything is not a big deal in the inner courtyard, compared with his previous bad deeds, it can be considered a positive evaluation. Chen Mo maintained his full moon stance and replied, "Teacher Lin, do the students in the inner courtyard usually carry weight when they stand in the stance?" [Word count +16.] After saying that, he was stunned for a moment. Does this count as a word? He looked at the only two listeners in front of him and confirmed the label again: genius. Um. Old Wu definitely doesn’t count, so the genius refers to Lin Xiangyun.
Chen Mo's eyes widened and he suddenly realized. Yes! The label is genius, not outstanding student. Lin Xiangyun must be a genius to be able to stay in the martial arts academy! "Cough cough." Chen Mo suddenly became energetic. "Teacher Lin, I have a question." Lin Xiangyun said cooperatively: "You ask." "Excuse me, which martial arts academy are you from? Can you tell me?" Old Wu wanted to stop him after hearing this, asking why this kid was still pushing his nose to the front, but Lin Xiangyun answered first: "Qingfeng Mountain." The martial arts academy is not a university, and it is not built by simply allocating a piece of land in the city and building a building. Depending on the different schools of martial arts, they would generally choose to settle in locations suitable for each academy. It might be called a Taoist temple, or a Buddhist temple. Naturally, it could also be called Qingfeng Mountain, because the martial arts academy is located in a place called Qingfeng Mountain. When these three words came out, Old Wu was shocked. He also wanted to know which martial arts academy the inner courtyard chief instructor came from, but he didn't have the courage to ask. But now, knowing the truth, it is even harder for him to remain calm. "Qingfengshan Martial Arts Academy is not ordinary. It is ranked in the top ten martial arts academies in China. Only students from advanced classes of various martial arts schools are eligible to apply." Old Wu was a little slow to react. What the hell? Why is there a narration? He looked carefully and found that it was Chen Mo who was giving the commentary. "This martial arts academy has a short history. It was founded twenty years ago, but it was ranked in the top ten from the beginning. This is because the first dean was the strongest transcendent at the time, Sword Saint Cui Jiuling." "More importantly, when he established the Martial Arts Academy, he also brought with him another Martial Saint and a Magic Saint. This is what allowed him to be ranked in the top ten."
“If it weren’t for the short time, Qingfeng Mountain would have been able to rank among the top three. With the passing of Sword Saint Cui Jiuling, it is now only ranked at the bottom of the top ten. This is a widely accepted view. There have only been two saints in the history of Bamen Martial Arts Academy, one of whom died long ago. However, this is enough to make it the top tier among the first-class martial arts academies, ranking in the top ten. There are still two living powerful saints in Qingfeng Mountain, so they can naturally make further progress. Lin Xiangyun did not comment on this. He said, "You know a lot about it. What about the situation of other martial arts academies? Please tell us about it as well." Chen Mo was delighted when he heard this. This inner courtyard is different, everyone takes the initiative to ask him to speak. From today on, he wants to join the inner courtyard as soon as possible. "Ahem. Currently, the top ten martial arts academies in China are: Liangjieta Martial Arts Academy in Hexi Province, Huangshaku Martial Arts Academy in Xihuang Province, and Daizong Martial Arts Academy in Hedong Province." Chen Mo stood there, holding a sandbag and talking incessantly. [Complete the current cycle, experience +1.] [Complete the current cycle, experience +1.] [Complete the current cycle, experience +1.] After a brief introduction, he basically covered all the information he had read on the Internet and gained 3 experience points. Lin Xiangyun and Old Wu looked at each other, and the former smiled and said, "Let's put it another way. Even if you can't get into the martial arts academy, you can at least find a job at a research institute to make a living." Of course, this is a joke. To those places that study extraordinary theories, you can't be selected just by memorizing materials. Chen Mo just smiled foolishly and said nothing, but he didn't say what was in his heart. He has been thinking about a question since just now. What kind of environment was it in which Lin Xiangyun was identified as a genius? For example, there are five teachers in Class 1, all of them have been to martial arts academies. Others may not be able to say, but everyone knows that Teacher Xu was the number one in the class during the preparatory stage for the martial arts school. Even if he became mediocre later, he was still a genius after all. Such experience cannot be recognized by the panel, that is to say, the label must be the current identity. As for the genius Lin Xiangyun, he will definitely not be compared with the students, nor with the teachers of the martial arts school. He is from the martial arts academy, so he must be compared with his fellow students in the academy. The problem is coming. What is Qingfeng Mountain? It was once the place where the Three Saints came, and it was a martial arts academy that was one level higher than the first-class martial arts academy. There are all geniuses there, why would they come to a small city like Qingcheng to teach students? This is like a national-level singer going to a remote primary school to be a music teacher, or a top painter whose paintings are auctioned for hundreds of millions going to a training institution to teach art. It's not impossible, but it would be weird. Chen Mo couldn't help but start to suspect that there was something strange about this place. "Could it be that there is someone in the inner courtyard who even Qingfeng Mountain values, so they secretly sent him over to make contact in advance? This is very likely." But he did not express his inner doubts. It is better not to talk too much about such things, otherwise it will cause trouble. At this point, Old Wu gradually accepted the reality. He found that Lin Xiangyun did not seem to dislike this student who had not slipped away. As the class teacher, he decided to help Chen Mo, so he said, "Did you hear that? Instructor Lin said that you can't get into the martial arts academy yet. I don't know why you are so cocky all day long." Lin Xiangyun quickly said, "Well, that can't be said. There is still some time before the big exam, so there is a chance."
Old Wu continued, "Yes, so the key is to work hard from now on. You have this opportunity today, why don't you ask Instructor Lin if you have any questions and ask for his advice." Lin Xiangyun smiled. How could he not understand the meaning of these words? Normally, for a strong man like him to give guidance to unrelated juniors depends entirely on his mood. If he says it, it is out of kindness, and if he doesn't say it, no one will think there is anything wrong with it. You know, for anyone who is a transcendent at the seventh or eighth level, others are willing to pay a lot of money to ask for guidance. This is not a free lunch. Chen Mo thanked Old Wu in his heart, then put down the sandbag, rubbed his hands and said, "Teacher Lin, I do have some small doubts that I would like to ask you." Lin Xiangyun pointed to the empty stone bench in the pavilion and said, "Sit down and talk." Chen Mo dropped the sandbag, trotted over, and sat down without any courtesy: "Hey, my first question comes from the theory of meridian foundation, from the first life underwater." When Old Wu heard this, he felt it sounded familiar and interrupted quickly: "Explain it to me." Chen Mo laughed dryly and had to change the starting point: "Then let's start from the apes' upright walking and discuss the basic physical training." "Stand back!" Old Wu is numb.
