”For example, let's take Northern River's Loose Cultivator. 'Northern River' is his real dao name, while 'Loose Cultivator' is just a t.i.tle. It's not different than 'Mister' or 'Miss'. Once he advances to the Sixth Stage, he would change it to True Monarch Northern River. It's the same for the other fellow daoists, Profound Principle, Snow Wolf, Copper Trigram, and Tian Tiankong are their dao names while Great Master, Cave Lord, Immortal Master, and Island Master their t.i.tles. Amongst the names you mentioned earlier, only Fellow Daoist Thrice Reckless Mad Saber has a four-word dao name.”
Venerable White gently clapped his hands while speaking and said, ”If you really want a four-word dao name, you can just follow in Fellow Thrice Reckless' footsteps. For example, how about Thrice Song Tyrannical Saber? Hmm… this dao name really seems to suit you!”
”No, absolutely not!” Song Shuhang shouted. He absolutely didn't want such a vulgar and crude dao name! No way, nope! At the very least, he wanted a refined and elegant dao name!
Song Shuhang was a university student that loved literature. If placed in ancient times, he would be a distinguished scholar! Therefore, he absolutely didn't want to have a dao name that reminded him of a bandit wielding the saber.
”Haha.” Venerable White laughed and stretched his hand out, putting several bayberries in his mouth, his expression satisfied.
”Pew, pew, pew, pew…”
Afterward, Venerable White also added, ”Actually, I don't think that four-word dao names are that good. I feel that one-word dao names are the best, it's very easy to remember them.”
For example, Venerable White's dao name had only one word in it, 'white'.
Extremely simple, just like a white sheet of paper!
But if he had to take a one-word dao name...
Song Shuhang pondered. ”A one-word name… Scholar? Sword?
True Monarch Scholar? True Monarch Sword?
For some reason, they also sound quite good.
”...” Venerable White.
Senior White sighed and said, ”Little friend Song Shuhang, you are someone that has grown up while receiving the influence of the Internet and thus have a vast knowledge. But how come the size of your vocabulary is unexpectedly so small? Is it possible that you can't think of anything else that is not related to scholars or swords?”
Song Shuhang replied, ”After pondering for a moment, I came to the conclusion that these two words are the ones that conform the most to my ideal image of a cultivator.”
Venerable White shook his head and said, ”If you really can't think of a good dao name, you might as well just use Thrice Song Tyrannical Saber.”
”No, absolutely not! Senior White, this dao name is the only one I won't ever use!” Song Shuhang called out… he didn't want to turn into a second Senior Thrice Reckless. It was such a death-seeking behavior.
Perhaps because Song Shuhang shouted too loudly, the faraway seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group turned their heads toward him.
Fairy Dongfang lightly stepped on the water and came over. ”A dao name? Is little friend Shuhang looking for a dao name?”
Although she was merely stepping on the water, when it was Fairy Dongfang doing it, it was as pleasing as seeing a dance.
Song Shuhang nodded and said, ”Yes!”
”Hehe, I always thought that Stressed by a Mountain of Books was your dao name. It seems it wasn't the case!” Fairy Dongfang said with a smile.
”That was just my online username and nothing more!” Song Shuhang said powerlessly. All the seniors of the Nine Provinces Number One Group had memorized the name 'Stressed by a Mountain of Books'. Such being the case, wouldn't they keep calling him like that even after he had chosen a dao name?
No, I can't let that happen!
