Chapter 1041
Within a cla.s.sroom in the Xuantian Dao Sect, there was a strict-looking elder loudly reading off a scroll he was holding .
There were tens of thousands of disciples sitting in front of the elder, all of them with solemn expressions as they seriously listened to his reading .
In the past few days, whether it was the inner sect disciples or outer sect disciples, they had all been going to cla.s.s .
According to the Xuantian Dao Sect’s traditions, the disciples all had alternate lectures with over a hundred teachers .
Those lectures were extremely diverse, and they contained information about martial tactics, formations, forging arts, runes, alchemy, divining the future, healing, etc . There were over a hundred all-encompa.s.sing topics .
The most shocking thing was that there were even zither, chess, scholar, and painting cultivation methods, and there were even some cultivation professions they had never heard of . For example, singing, dancing, etc . They had never heard of cultivators doing such things for a living .
During these days, they had been listening to the teachers presenting the arts that they were most proficient in . This was to allow the disciples to consider their own skills, interests, and apt.i.tude so that they could decide which direction their future cultivation would take .
It went without saying that the Xuantian Dao Sect’s foundation was absolutely shocking . As long as you thought of something, you could find a teacher specialized in it . And even if you couldn’t think of it, you would have a teacher for it .
As for the current elder, he was a veteran Beast Tamer . First he discussed some foundational knowledge, as well as introducing the pros and cons of Beast Tamers, and then he introduced some overlord-level existences that were recorded in ancient history . Those were housepets that Beast Tamers would long to obtain even in their dreams .
The tens of thousands of disciples were all listening with rapt attention . Only one person was absent-minded as his mind rapidly worked .
Long Chen had long since grown tired of listening to this elder drone on and on . This rule of the Dao Sect was extremely irritating . Even if you weren’t a Beast Tamer and had no intention of choosing that profession, you had to listen to this cla.s.s .
The elder’s voice went in through Long Chen’s left ear and out through his right . The only thing he was thinking about was how to make money .
Yesterday, Tang Wan-er had told him that in the Xuantian Dao Sect, points were even harder to obtain than in the Eastern Wasteland’s 108th monastery .
Inner sect disciples only got a hundred points a month . Outer sect disciples only got ten . Furthermore, five of those points could only be obtained through working and completing missions . If they failed their missions, the points would even be deducted .
As for core disciples, they obtained the most points . Each month, they got ten thousand . Regretfully, that had nothing to do with Long Chen now, as he could only get the pay of an inner sect disciple . Nine thousand nine hundred points had flown away with the hack of his saber .
Just as Long Chen was thinking about how to make money to support his family, the elder on the stage had finished discussing the overlord Magical Beasts that transcendent Beast Tamers had once managed to subdue . He began to tell an extremely bada.s.s story, and also began discussing a bada.s.s existence .
“In the north underworld, there was a fish known as the Kun . When the Kun grew…”
The elder began describing a terrifying existence, one that only existed in legends . The disciples were all listening with interest when the elder suddenly shouted, “You, what are you thinking about?!”
The disciples were startled and followed the elder’s gaze to see Long Chen staring at the window with a lifeless expression . It was unknown what he was thinking, but it seemed he wasn’t listening at all .
“Senior apprentice-brother Long Chen…” A maiden beside Long Chen blushed slightly and pushed Long Chen lightly .
“Ah? Is cla.s.s over?” Long Chen was delighted . But he quickly realized that the teacher was glaring blades at him, and he quickly shut his mouth .
“You, stand up! Repeat what I just said!” ordered the teacher .
Long Chen helplessly stood up, grumbling inside . Thickening his face, he said, “In the north underworld, there was a fish known as the Kun . When the Kun grew… when the Kun grew…” Long Chen hadn’t even been listening so he had no idea what he had said after this . Seeing everyone looking at him, he clenched his teeth and said, “When the Kun grew… well, it didn’t matter, because if it grew too big for the pot, it can still be grilled on a spit . A handful of pepper, a handful of sesame, cook it until the skin bursts, you get a bite, I get a bite, we can raise our cups and eat until the sun rises . ”
Once Long Chen was finished, the cla.s.sroom was deathly silent . Green veins were popping on the teacher’s head . Pointing at Long Chen, even his finger quivered .
“Get out . ”
“I…” Long Chen still wanted to quibble .
“Scram!”
Now his voice had become a roar, and Long Chen could only helplessly leave, disappearing from people’s sights .
“d.a.m.n, so escaping the sea of bitterness is actually so simple! If I had known this earlier, why would I have to suffer?” Once Long Chen had walked far away enough and knew the teacher couldn’t see him, He stopped and stretched his waist, instantly feeling much more refreshed .
Consecutively listening to lectures made him feel like he was going crazy . Being kicked out was a kind of blessing now .
“Boss…”
Once Long Chen left the lecture region, he was greeted by a certain person after crossing a bamboo forest . That person immediately knelt on the ground and grabbed Long Chen’s leg, sniveling and wailing .
