Chapter 166 (2/2)

‘Once those who are skilled increase the distance between us and engage in a far distance battle which exceeds supersonic speed, I won’t be able to know where they are.

‘But if I can take action first, before they do, not everyone will be able to receive an attack which is eight times of supersonic speed.

‘Other than this…’ A hint of white light lit up on his finger, shining out in all directions.

It was from Zhou Yong’s Radiant Light Sword Technique. ‘Since both my eyes are blind, I can just let my opponents lose their sight as well.’

However, Fang Xingjian still shook his head. With his eyes still blind, his current battle style was too simple.

‘Since the resources from the academy have decreased, I can only think of my own ways.’

Fang Xingjian gave it some thought and eventually only managed to think of that one single solution.

He called the maid, Lina, and said, “Get pen and paper. Write a notice and put it up. Remember, put it up in the academy where the greatest number of people are. Tell them that I’ve reopened classes and will be providing guidance for Knights.”

What Fang Xingjian wanted to do was to reopen his classes to impart martial arts guidance and collect tuition fees. With that, he would be able to pay for additional amount of cultivating resources.

After all, his body cultivated martial arts automatically for twenty-four hours a day. He would just need to give a little bit of attention to the other students while he was studying the Heaven’s Perception.

Although Fang Xingjian was blinded, his ability to provide guidance was well-known. Right after the notice was put up, over ten Knights came to register for the class.

Although there were still many who had not come, they were also observing quietly. Once they were sure that Fang Xingjian’s ability to provide guidance had not regressed, naturally, they would sign up for the classes as well.

Anthony, Ferdinand, Robert… These who had come from the same class naturally came as well.

It was a pity that Jack had died. Ever since Lilia had been taken away by her father, she had not returned either.

Anthony looked at Fang Xingjian, his eyes filled with pity. He had seen Fang Xingjian rising up as a genius, but now, he had lost his sense of sight and also needed to open martial arts classes to earn money. Compared to how he used to be, the difference was like the gap between the heaven and earth.

Fang Xingjian could sense with his sword Qis that all eleven students had arrived. He smiled and said, “Long time no see. This time around, the reason that I’ve started this martial arts class is primarily to earn some money to get more cultivation resources.

“I will be here every day. As long as you guys practice here, I’ll provide guidance.

“Of course, everything will be as it was. If you have any actions which are not up to standard, I’ll exert my force to correct them. There will be no words spoken, no forms of communication. It will be five gold per month.”

If there were as many people as the previous time, with him charging at five gold per month, he would be able to get an income of one to two hundred gold per month. Adding that to his monthly spending money per month as a Prefectural Champion and his savings, he would have five hundred gold in total. It would be sufficient to sustain his cultivation for twenty-four hours per day up until the Regional Selection about four months later.

However, upon hearing that Fang Xingjian would be charging five gold, a commotion broke out.

A blue-haired Knight was the first to express his dissatisfaction, “Previously, wasn’t it agreed that we will be able to receive guidance if we were to provide one sword arts manual? Why are you asking for money now?”

Another person protested as well, “That’s right, five gold per month is too expensive! It would only cost one or two gold for the classes the instructors hold! Who are you to ask for five?

“Moreover, you can’t even see now. How do we know how good you are now? How can you charge so expensively at five gold?”

Fang Xingjian replied calmly, “Simply because I’m ten times better than them.”
