Endless paths, countless stars sparkled in the horizon. The ocean without limits. A world where powerful journeys are on long journeys, where heroes emerge.
Dreams, wealth, secret possessions, power. They all belong there.
Tang Tian was the same as usual, standing lazily on the training ground.
Looking at those young and pure faces, he snorted.
This was the first time the youths had come to the Andrew Academy training ground. Andrew Academy was the top tenth academy of Star Wind City. Although the facilities at the training grounds were incomparable to the number one Heaven Dawn Establishment, they could still be considered first-rate facilities.
Moreover, this is the first practicum for new students, and they are overwhelmed with curiosity.
“Everything written in the textbook that you have all studied before, I have explained it thoroughly. From today onwards, in addition to theory classes, most of your time will be spent here at the training ground. If any of you dream of entering a better academy, studying and practicing diligently is the only way. Always remember, there is no shortcut to success. Cultivating will forever be boring and boring; never believe in luck.”
Master Cen said solemnly, as his voice echoed throughout the training ground.
Passion and anticipation filled the eyes of the young students.
“Today, our syllabus is practicing the basics of sword arts. Martial arts are of no use if one only studies theory but ignores actual practice. However, before you all start practicing by yourself, your senior Tang Tian will demonstrate once. Senior Tang Tian is the most outstanding and skilled martial arts foundation expert of the Andrew Academy, which even I, cannot compete with. You will all be fine to watch and focus on what the perfect sword arts foundation looks like. ”
“Shua”, all the youths turned their eyes to Tang Tian. In the eyes of many people, the status of ‘pemalas’ changed for the better.
Tang Tian was cold and distant.
“Tang Tian, please start.” Teacher Cen instructed.
“Oh.” Tang Tian replied with a sigh, and walked over to the sword box in the corner and took out a wooden sword. As soon as he held the wooden sword, Tang Tian's eyes instantly flashed sharply and turned serious, with his previous laziness gone in an instant.
With his left leg pulled half a step back, his waist slightly lowered and his right elbow inserted in, Tang Tian raised the tip of the sword at eye level.
His waist was slightly off, his elbows were relaxed like springs, and his wrists did not move in the slightest.
The si!
A shrill voice sounded in the clear air.
The Academy Andrews Fundamental Sword Arts Attack!
Many youths involuntarily cheered amusedly. Many of them were actually not interested in the basic techniques of sword arts. As the name suggests, basic sword techniques aim to build the foundation of students, and are considered the lowest stage of sword arts techniques. It was normal for the youths to not be interested in them. However when they saw Tang Tian running a basic sword technique, each punch looked simple, but it was done gracefully and powerfully.
In a split second, he had won the hearts of the youths.
Tang Tian's focus was on his peak, moving one foot quickly forward, his shoulders were calm and motionless, yet his arms were like ropes, when they suddenly shook, the wooden sword struck the floor.
Wu!
The voice broke the silence, and people became tense.
The basic movements of sword arts techniques generally had a much shorter range than sword arts, but the power of the explosion was stronger. As Tang Tian demonstrated the main points of ‘attacking’ sharply and clearly, the youths could actually see the flexibility of the wooden sword in the air.
The youths once again, flabbergasted in astonishment, Master Cen was already used to it. He saw Tang Tian standing on the training ground and even though he had seen him practice repeatedly, whenever he witnessed Tang Tian's practice, it would always leave him gasping for breath. Master Cen even claimed that mastery of the basic techniques of sword arts could not be compared to Tang Tian, and was extremely humble.
Lift, block, picture.
Tang Tian's movements were like clouds and flowing water, with a peaceful mind, he did not hesitate in the middle. His movements were calm, graceful, yet with strength. When he finished his last move, the entire training ground went silent.
Tang Tian returned to his lazy facial expression, and threw away the wooden sword. As if the sword had eyes, it fell into the sword container in the corner.
The students cheered.
“Wow! That was Amazing! The basic technique of sword arts was actually this powerful!”
“Too cool! Too beautiful!”
“Keren abis! Senior Tang Tian is very manly! Senior, senior, please come with me! ” the eyes of the female students glittered among the crowd. Tang Tian had a great stature, with this fundamental sword arts technique, it made him look perfect, without the slightest hint of awkwardness, making everyone think that he was coordinated as well as flexible.
Tang Tian was still indifferent.
“Che, what folly! So what if your basic sword technique is perfect, you didn't manage to pass the final exam for 5 consecutive years, this cool senior Tang Tian, is, had already learned this basic sword technique when my brother started studying in Andrew. Pew, my brother is about to graduate.”
This young man was shouting among the crowd.
A deep silence followed, and the gaze that was originally filled with admiration, quickly turned into a gaze.
There was a rumor about a student who was the main retainer at Andrew Academy, and everyone knew about this laughingstock. Many had come with the intention to ask this, but they never thought that the main retainer was the one standing before them, the invincible senior Tang Tian.
He knew it would be like this …
Tang Tian pouted, things like this happen every year. He's used to it. Yet he still gave an unfriendly look to the bastard with a strange ying temper.
Your brother may not have told you, but I've beaten him before.
Tang Tian had already decided to settle the score with that person after class, but perhaps he didn't have to wait too long …
Tang Tian narrowed his eyes, in a bad tone of speech: “Who gave you permission to distract from class time? Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you all, I'm Master Cen's assistant, and I'm in charge of your revisions. Anyone who doesn't train well, I'm willing to fight. You, yes you, want to go out and compete?”
Tang Tian pointed at the boy with sarcastic comments, his fists squeezed so tightly that it made a ‘ka’ sound.
The boy's face instantly pale and he suddenly recalled Tang Tian's reputation. He remained silent and ran to the side and began to train.
At the same time, Master Cen noted: “If you have any questions, please feel free to consult senior Tang Tian. Practice hard, do not be lazy. Tang Tian, watch their training sessions. ”
“Ya!” Tang Tian shouted.
Master Cen nodded in satisfaction, and turned to leave.
No one came all the way until the class ended. Tang Tian was a little disappointed as he groaned and left.
After the lesson ended, everyone gathered around the boy.
“Quick tell us, you only managed to say half early.”
“Ya, yes ...”
The boy said arrogantly: “This senior Tang Tian, is a legend of Andrew Academy. Andrew Academy has always been known to put forward graduation, so who will defend? However, our senior Tang Tian stayed, and now he lives, hmm, let me count, five years, a total of five years! Think about it, to stay at Andrew Academy for five years, what kind of thoughts would come to mind? He must have been the first to do that !! ”
“Why did he stay so long?” one can't help but ask: “Even if he can't get into the prestigious academy, a normal one is easy!”
The gossip made the youths more excited: “You know why? Well, our senior Tang Tian has not managed to learn a higher ranked martial technique in these five years. He had only managed to master basic martial techniques. In these five years, what could fundamental martial techniques do? If you want to be a chef, you should know more than a thing or two about knives. If you want to attend an upscale restaurant, you must have humility behind the palm of your hand to achieve a higher level of skill. To become a bartender at a nightclub not only do you need a higher level of skill, you also need a connection. Without it, people wouldn't even bother looking at you twice. Tell me, what is the basic martial technique for? Even the worst schools will teach at least rank two martial techniques.”
Gossip burned like fuel with the youths, one of them acted professionally and said: ”Basic martial techniques are the foundation of a cultivator, as long as you learn them, that is enough. The earlier you start developing a rank two martial technique, the better. That's the right way to do it. Such prestigious schools have produced genius students who can develop high-level martial techniques at a young age. If you are fourteen years old and have learned rank two martial techniques, then you can apply to a normal academy. To be fourteen years old, and to have completed rank three martial techniques, you can enter a better academy. And at the age of fourteen, if you can master all three tiers of martial techniques, you can enter the prestigious academy.”
“I've also heard of it before.” Someone talked.
“But, I am thirteen this year, I want to enter the prestigious academy.” someone said in frustration.
“Keep dreaming, be realistic, you should be happy to enter a somewhat better academy.”
Looking at the others who agreed with him, the gossiping boy became even more arrogant: “Ha, but the basic martial technique does have its own uses, if you don't learn it well, then, you will never be able to practice a rank two martial technique.”
Seeing how arrogant he is, someone stood up and laughed coldly: “Hey, but I heard our senior does not like boys and only trusts girls. Knowing you don't respect him today, you better be vigilant, lest he find trouble with you. ”
The gossiping boy's face became dull as he recalled the sharp gaze Tang Tian gave him, his heart quivering.
The other became more curious and asked: “Don't he only know basic martial techniques? Why is he still so proud?”
The boy laughed coldly and said, “You all just saw him, with his caliber, he has no problem fighting one-on-three. He was used to fighting and acting out of anger, anyone who annoyed him would receive a huge blow. Other than Master Cen, he did not even give the other teachers face. Even the strongest in our school will not be able to hold a candle for him.
“Are you telling the truth? She's so fierce?” Some of them don't believe it at all.
“She has a nice and ferocious physique, as if bleeding is a regular part of her life. I've seen people who are stronger than him, but his ferocity, it's really on another level. Right now, he had won every fight he had participated in, and even in his toughest fight so far, it still ended up with both of them getting injured, and not him losing. And that fight was against a popular senior. ” One of the students warned: “You should not disturb him.”
They all pulled their necks, and many threw pityful gazes at the gossipy young man, who had pale skin.
On the faces of the girls who were originally charmed, the adoring gazes had already disappeared from their eyes, some were even a little disdainful, some showed sympathy, while others instantly gave expressions of disdain, while whispering.
“So he's an idiot, he almost tricked me, that body is indeed sturdy!”
“She's a bastard, very annoying, no one likes such a rude and vulgar man.”
“Aiya, this world is very cruel, dreams are destroyed as fast as they are formed.”
“Hehe, Xiao Nizi has a crush on him...”.
The new student who spoke couldn't stand it and said: “Save, stop dreaming. He might just be a retainer, but he won't like you all. ”
“Based on what! Cheh, if he doesn't have a good physique, I won't even bother giving him a second glance. ” One of those chatty girls looks disgusted.
The new student looked at the girl with even more disdain: “Others can't be bothered with you. Your entire existence, is not even comparable to a single hair on Miss Qian Hui! She already has Miss Qian Hui in her eyes, how could she pay attention to you?”
Lady Qian Hui!
Some female students could not help but stare with wide eyes. Shangguang Qian Hui is the legendary figure of Star Wind City, and is the idol of all girls and the ideal love of men. Her beauty was unrivalled, while she was warm and pleasant, she also achieved top marks in the entrance test to Andrew Academy. After being accepted into Andrew's Academy, he dominated the first position, and because of his existence, Andrew's Academy rose in rank. Last year, when he left Andrew's Academy, the academy's ranking dropped instantly.
The girl stopped talking, if she even dared to speak ill of Miss Qian Hui, at least half of the spectators here would step in to hit her.
“Why does Miss Qian Hui have anything to do with a man without this potential?” Some girls can't believe it.
The boy also put on a complicated expression as he shook his head and sighed: “I'm curious too! Let me tell you, because of Miss Qian Hui's threat, not a single expert would dare to provoke her.
Although it had been a year since Miss Qian Hui left the academy, her legacy still remained.
In the office, Master Cen was standing by the window, watching the entire scene unfold, not a single hint of emotion could be detected within his deep blue eyes, yet he sighed lightly in his heart.
In this world, not everyone can be just as lucky.
She adored Tang Tian, and this made her constantly worry about him. Tang Tian was already seventeen years old, wandering around a group of youths between thirteen and fourteen years old, like a countdown to him.
At Tang Tian's age, he should be in his graduation year. Moving on next year, he'll be too old to stay in school. It meant that Tang Tian would be forced to enter an actual adult life. What was worrying was, with Tang Tian's potential, it was impossible to find a job that could sustain him.
No one would recruit someone who only knew basic swordsmanship.
If he knew a rank two martial technique, he could at least have a low income, which wouldn't be too bad. Although the days ahead will be difficult and difficult, at least he can live his life.
If only he had ten percent of Qian Hui's talent, it would be good…
