Chapter 192 The Sky Knight's Academy

Edited by: pnemnn

Xiaobao stayed in the mountains for too long. Except for occasionally shopping with his master, he basically stayed in the temple all the time. Regardless of the cold winter or hot summer, all he used to do was to chant sutras and practice martial arts. Hence, he developed a relatively simple character, and this character was called “Otaku” in modern times.

Not good at communicating with other people, this was a bit similar to Zhou Yu. However, Zhou Yu did not like to communicate with other people, while Xiaobao grew up in an environment that did not give him many people to communicate with, so there was still a fundamental difference. Perhaps, with the change of environment, Xiaobao would gradually become a normal person.

However, there was one big problem before the transition, and that was Xiaobao's learning problem.

Xiaobao was not illiterate. The old monk probably taught him how to read and write before, but his education level was, at the most, the secondary school level. Literacy was not a problem, but the advanced learning was slightly difficult for him. So for Xiaobao, the elementary martial arts instructor guide book, which the old drunkard had spent a lot of effort to write, was quite hard to understand. He needed someone to explain it in a much simpler way.

Helplessly, Zhou Yu could only act as a temporary teacher, and explain everything to him.

Training Xiaobao was much more difficult, compared to training Wu Yun.

What made Zhou Yu feel headache the most was that from time to time, Xiaobao would want to exchange lance technique with him. This was a serious problem for Zhou Yu. Because Zhou Yu was no match for Xiaobao at all. If it weren't for the Animal Morphing skill, the one, that was lying on the ground at that time, would have been him.

However, the price of Animal Morphing skill was too high. And at the moment, there was no one else in the village that had high enough friendliness to allow him to use this kind of skill again. The master/disciple relationship between him and Bubu has not recovered yet, so if he were to fight Xiaobao in the duel again, he would definitely be beaten up very badly. Therefore, there was no way Zhou Yu would agree to exchange the lance technique with him.

The squirrel Bubu had already sent the message about recovering the missing “Bird Lance Technique” to Starlight City. Two days later, the Starlight Knight's Regiment finally came to Luhua village, and their arrival was quite a big scene.

On that day, the uniform goshawks were wheeling in the sky above the amusement park. At first, Zhou Yu thought that they were here to catch chickens. But when he took off his glasses, there was nothing in the blue sky but patches of white clouds and bright sun.

So they were the visitors from the ACG world.

Sir Black carried Bubu, flew towards Zhou Yu, and stopped on his shoulder. Then Bubu said, “The leader of the Flying bird knight's regiment, Liu Kong, came here personally. They showed a lot of respect for us. But listen, later on, let me negotiate with them. We should not just hand the manual to them that easily. We need to at least get some good stuff back. After all, we spent a lot of effort to get that thing.”

It seemed like Bubu really considered itself as one member of Luhua Village, or maybe, it had an unpleasant past with its former superior. But no matter what, Zhou Yu liked this idea. For the development of Luhua Village, it was still okay to extort some stuff from Starlight city. Besides, this manual was indeed a very rare item.

Liu Kong performed a series of flying formations in the sky and then began to descend. Before he landed, he jumped down from the air directly, and other bird knights quickly formed steps for him and safely sent him to the ground.

After landing, he still did not forget to make a cool and handsome pose, which made him look like an egocentric guy.

“Liu Kong, you still did not change much. If you like to perform so much, why don't you become an idol? With that appearance of yours, it would not be difficult for you to become a comedian.”

Bubu's sharp tongue was fierce and direct. It did not become polite just because he was its former superior. However, the self-admiring Liu Kong did not seem to be offended by it. He just ignored Bubu and bowed to Zhou Yu, and said in an operatic tone, “Oh, are you the guardian of Luhua village, the finder of the lost manual of the Flying bird knight's regiment, Mr. Zhou Yu? The Flying bird knight's regiment will remember your contribution forever. No matter where you are, as long as you need us, the Flying bird knight's regiment will do anything for you.”

Zhou Yu simply smiled at this flattery and then welcomed Liu Kong to his home. With the dishes that were prepared by Kaka and Benben, the alcohol that was produced by mini Luhua village, and the top idol little Muli's accompanying, no matter where they went, this kind of welcoming party was very rare.

After the meal, Liu Kong still didn't rush to name his exchange condition, but Bubu had already run out of its patience, it just directly said, “a sky knight's academy construction blueprint, 2 flying bird knight professors, 5000 Moe Coins, and a statue of the phoenix, this is our condition. Don't say anything else. If you can afford it, take the manual back. If you can't afford it, then forget about it.”

Absolutely ruthless. Not only did it directly ask the other party to provide all the necessary conditions for the sky knight's academy, but it even asked them to pay 5000 Moe Coins as well.

Hearing Bubu named its condition, Liu Kong was stunned for a second, only after a while did he finally said with a heavy tone, “Bubu, you are also a flying bird knight after all, and even if you and I had conflicts in the past, you should not use this negotiation to get even with me for the private grudges. It's not chivalrous.”

“I don't understand what you are saying. I am now the leader of the second knight mount regiment of Luhua village, leading my own flying bird knights, naturally, I have to be responsible for my knights.”

Bubu's response was flawless, Liu Kong could not point out any mistakes, so he could only start haggling, “I can give professors and Moe Coins, I can't give you the phoenix statue. So far, only the best three academies that produce the best flying bird knights have this kind of statue. They are the top academies. Your Luhua village is not qualified at the moment, no matter what kind of contribution you have made.”

Liu Kong was also telling the truth. However, Bubu also did not think that he would be able to get the phoenix statue at the first try. Its actual plan was to get the eagle statue. And that should not be a problem.

So just when Bubu was about to give in, the king of thieves suddenly appeared out of nowhere, threw something on the table, and said, “you don't think Luhua village is qualified? Then we'll get it ourselves, and we don't need it from you.”

The thing that the king of thieves threw onto the table, was the phoenix statue that Bubu had been dreaming of. The function of the phoenix statue was to increase students' understanding and increase the probability of producing the high-rank flying bird knight, but it was also a symbol of status. There were only three academies in the ACG world having this kind of statue. And all of them were absolutely the top academies.

With an academy like this, it could even attract some wandering talented travelers. Nowadays, there were actually travelers coming to the village every day. If the mini Luhua village met their conditions, those travelers would stay. Just like after the creative tree was planted, it attracted the wandering producer Oba. Unfortunately, the current Luhua village could not meet many travelers' conditions, so the population has not increased significantly.

But where did the king of thieves steal this?

Zhou Yu was also surprised, although the name of the king of thieves would make people think of many things, it also made him wonder more than once if he should ask him to steal something for him. However, after the king of thieves joined the Luhua village for this long, he never stole anything, but only focused on being Zhou Yu's bodyguard. So, when did he steal this?

From Bubu's big round eyes, Zhou Yu could tell that this statue was absolutely a good thing. So if the king of thieves could keep stealing the items that he needed for developing Luhua village, Luhua village would become prosperous very soon.

Unfortunately, this was just an unrealistic dream.
