Chapter 52: The Four Instructors
Chapter 52: The Four Instructors
Dongfang Sansan, deep in thought, finally understood after a long while and nodded slightly. He stood up and paced slowly, saying, "First, the members of the secret department and other informants will be reassigned to the underground base of the branch. They will be provided for all their family needs. No one is allowed to enter or leave. The time limit is ten years, subject to review."
"Second, the Grand Hall of Baiyunzhou, the original hall master and deputy hall master will all be transferred. I will personally select new personnel and go down to oversee. Then... Chen Ru Hai and Fan Tian Tiao will be reassigned to the Grand Hall of Baiyunzhou as deputy hall masters."
"After three years, these two will be transferred again."
"For the Grand Hall of Bingbo Town, a suitable person will be chosen to take over, and the Fang family will be supported and nurtured."
"In Baiyun Wuyuan, only you will know about this matter. You must not reveal any information! As for Fang Che, follow your heart and do what you think is right. There is no need to suppress or favor him, but you must ensure his safety."
"Also, I will have someone take over this line. From now on, this matter will be directly under the headquarters!"
"Chen Ru Hai and Fan Tian Tiao, you can handle other matters as you see fit, even to the point of negligence. But when it comes to Fang Che, you must communicate directly with the headquarters. You must ensure that not even a hint of this matter is leaked, even at the cost of your life."
"The name 'Shadow' can no longer be used. It must be completely cut off from the past. The records will be destroyed, and I will personally rebuild the archives, renaming it 'Moonshadow'."
"I will also arrange for someone to work with you at Baiyun Wuyuan."
"As for the idea that Fang Che is a good person, it's best to erase it from your mind. Otherwise, your decision could be dangerous."
As Dongfang Sansan spoke these words, a flash of light flickered in his eyes.
"Yes, I won't think that way again," Huang Yifan quickly assured.
"En."
Dongfang Sansan looked at the copper coins, and a flash of light quickly passed through his eyes.
Huang Yifan didn't notice.
Or perhaps he did notice but couldn't understand it.
Soon, they began to discuss the details.
They clarified everything point by point.
Seeing that Huang Yifan was still confused, Dongfang Sansan, fearing that it might affect important matters, decided to create a temporary talisman and slapped the information into Huang Yifan's head.
When Huang Yifan stumbled out of the headquarters, he realized that exactly one hour had passed, not a minute more or less!
"It's so... precise."
Huang Yifan was awe-struck, and the excitement in his heart had not yet subsided.
The feeling of 'meeting a big shot today' was hard to suppress.
After calming down for a while, he left the headquarters. As he walked far away and looked back, he saw a lone figure standing on the observation platform of the headquarters, gazing into the sky.
There was an indescribable sense of loneliness in the person's silhouette.
When Huang Yifan turned back again, the person, who was more than ten miles away, seemed to sense it and suddenly turned to look in his direction.
Huang Yifan felt like his mind had exploded, and in that instant, he was completely lost.
When he regained consciousness, he had unknowingly walked a thousand miles.
"Who is this person? How powerful!"
...
Fang Che had already been assigned to his class.
As expected, it was Class 1 of the first year in Baiyun Wuyuan.
Mo Gan Yun was also in the same class.
The other top ten students were scattered across various classes.
In fact, this was a tradition of Baiyun Wuyuan; there was competition among the classes, and it was not possible to keep all the good seedlings in the same class.
The kind of overwhelming advantage over other classes was absolutely not conducive to common progress.
The kind of despair that would never allow anyone to stand out was something that would overshadow every child's heart and was not conducive to future growth.
Originally, Mo Gan Yun was also supposed to go to another class, but somehow, he managed to stay in Class 1.
The classroom for one class was a large hall that could accommodate hundreds of people.
There were only a hundred students, making it seem quite spacious.
The main instructor was Li Changkong, and the second instructor was Bao Feiyu.
The other instructors were Bing Shang Xue and Duan Zhongliu.
These four were the four gold-medal instructors of Baiyun Wuyuan, and they had just finished teaching the graduating class before returning to teach the first year.
This rotation occurred once every five years.
During the first class, all four instructors arrived together and conducted self-introductions, as well as roll call.
Fang Che noticed that the eyes of the four instructors were like thunder and lightning, as cold as ice and snow.
They repeatedly scanned the faces and bodies of all the students.
However, everyone's spirits seemed a bit off, and as they looked at the class, their gazes carried a sense of scrutiny.
"They must have just sent off the students they taught for five years, and their emotions are still unsettled."
Fang Che understood the four instructors and not only felt comfortable but also felt a sense of reliability.
This was because of the two words: sentiment and justice.
As for the names of the four instructors, Fang Che felt that they were simply incredible.
He heard Mo Gan Yun whisper, "The names of the four instructors are really impressive. How did they come up with them?"
Fang Che chuckled and revealed a meaningful expression.
Based on his experience, these names were perfect for the martial arts world.
They must have been changed later on.
Their original names might have been something like 'Big Bull, Second Egg, Doggy, and Doggy Egg'.
However, this was not a question he could ask, for if he did... well, he would be asking for trouble!
If he left a deep impression on the instructors, he might have to endure five years of hardships and never catch his breath.
"Good morning, teachers!"
All the students stood up and greeted them.
"I am not worthy!"
Li Changkong waved his hand dismissively, "We hope you will call us instructors. The title of 'teacher' is not for you to use yet!"
The entire class was stunned, "...
"For now, we have been employed by the martial arts academy to train you to become warriors.
You've paid your tuition, and we've received our salaries from the Martial Academy. For now, this is a transaction."
Li Changkong spoke calmly, hands behind his back, "Only when we acknowledge your efforts and you acknowledge our teaching, will we truly be teacher and student."
"But we're not yet at the level of master and disciple. We're merely teacher and student, not master and apprentice. I hope you understand this point."
Li Changkong firmly said, "Now, line up and take turns entering the four rooms for assessment and cultivation evaluation."
"No one is allowed to disclose their innate qualities to other classmates! Of course, if you don't value your life, you can go around telling everyone."
"Regardless of your past or future glory, whether you're a champion or ranked first, today we start from scratch! Understand?"
Fang Che rolled his eyes.
You're practically asking me to reveal my identity card.
The four instructors began their work simultaneously.
A hundred students lined up in four columns, taking turns entering the four temporary small rooms for aptitude assessment and cultivation evaluation by the instructors.
The towering Mo Gan Yun, standing at two meters and three heads tall, was first in line. Fang Che, at one meter and eighty-five centimeters, was second, and yes, Fang Che had grown taller.
At one meter and eighty-five centimeters, Fang Che was already towering among his male peers.
However, it was undeniable that Fang Che was a full head shorter than Mo Gan Yun, and even more!
To be blunt, when Mo Gan Yun stood, he was like a towering crane among chickens.
If a sword were to slash horizontally at Mo Gan Yun's neck height, only Mo Gan Yun himself would be beheaded, while not a single hair on the others would be harmed, including Fang Che.
This was quite...
Moreover, Mo Gan Yun's physique was perfectly proportioned, essentially Fang Che's ideal physique magnified to twice the size.
Two meters tall and four hundred pounds.
He didn't appear bloated at all, only giving off a sense of robust, muscular, well-proportioned, and formidable strength.
Mo Gan Yun stood right next to Fang Che.
Fang Che felt extremely uncomfortable.
"Move away from me!"
"Why?"
"If you fall on me, you'll crush me to death!"
"Pfft!"
Mo Gan Yun rolled his eyes.
To be fair, anyone could roll their eyes without issue, and it would even look cute on a girl.
But when Mo Gan Yun rolled his eyes, his black eyeballs rolled so far back that it felt like they had traveled a long distance before the whites of his eyes became visible.
Fang Che shivered.
...
Mo Gan Yun was the first to be assessed.
Li Changkong was pleasantly surprised, "Legendary Heaven Rank? Primordial Meridian Permeation?"
"Not bad, not bad."
After testing his cultivation, Li Changkong was even more satisfied, "Martial Master level three, on the verge of a breakthrough, with an extremely solid foundation, perfect meridians without any damage, no signs of pill consumption, excellent coordination, innate talent seen once in a century, and most importantly, his comprehension is also very good. A true all-rounder..."
Li Changkong's cold expression softened, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Surname Mo? Mo Gan Yun? Are you a member of the Mo Clan? Why did you come to the White Cloud Martial Academy? Why aren't you cultivating within your clan?"
Li Changkong's expression became more pleasant.
"There's no pressure in my clan, as none of my peers can compare to me. I don't feel any pressure, so I thought of trying out the Martial Academy. If the White Cloud Martial Academy doesn't work out, I'll try other academies..."
Mo Gan Yun honestly confessed.
Li Changkong furrowed his brows and nodded.
He wasn't angry.
Mo Gan Yun was telling the truth. With the power of the Mo Clan, they could indeed achieve this effortlessly.
He then asked, "You and Fang Che, are you close?"
"Fang Che?"
Mo Gan Yun was a bit puzzled. Why was Fang Che being brought up? Although he didn't understand, he honestly replied, "Fang Che is my recent goal. In my observation, this classmate is quite good."
Li Changkong nodded, "In my younger years, I had dealings with your Mo Clan, so let me give you a piece of advice. Fang Che, you should be cautious about him."
Mo Gan Yun furrowed his brows, unconvinced, and replied, "Yes."
"Why didn't you join the Hidden Sect?"
"The sect is too secluded, and during major wars, they simply close their doors and stay hidden. So, our ancestors' teachings forbid us from joining sects."
Mo Gan Yun said, "Mo Clan men would rather die in battle than hide in sects!"
"Good!"
Li Changkong applauded, "The Mo Clan indeed lives up to its reputation..."
Li Changkong didn't finish his sentence.
As Mo Gan Yun exited, he encountered Fang Che, who was first in line, and silently signaled him.
Meaning: Be careful, that guy inside seems to have no good feelings towards you.
Fang Che understood and walked in confidently.
"Fang Che?"
"Yes."
"Come over here."
"Yes."
Fang Che clearly felt Li Changkong's coldness.
Logically, as the champion, he should be given preferential treatment, but why was this guy acting like this?
Although Fang Che didn't say the phrase 'Righteous as Heaven, Fang Che' with its strange tone, he could sense it.
The atmosphere was the same.
But, after a moment.
Li Changkong's calmness vanished.
"Beyond all ranks, surpassing the Dragon Phoenix Tower's limit?"
Li Changkong's mouth could fit an ostrich egg.
