In fact, what Instructor He taught was of little use to Lilia, and she didn't have to listen to his lectures at all. However, Ling Xiao felt that she was still young, so he wanted her to spend more time with children of the same age. This would be more beneficial to her healthy physical and mental growth. Therefore, he still let Lilia study with the disciples every day.
As for Lilia herself, she didn't think too much about it. Ling Xiao asked her to go to school, so she went obediently. Besides, she also liked to be with everyone.
Although she couldn't learn what everyone else was learning, she found it very interesting and not boring to watch everyone practicing swordplay, dancing the sword with great power, and casting magical spells with just a few gestures.
Moreover, He Jiaoshi was summoned by Sect Master Xiao himself and was told by Sect Master Xiao to teach Lilia well. In addition, Lilia had the support of Ling Xiao, the spiritual pet of the Supreme Elder, so he did not dare to neglect Lilia and let Lilia sit aside and watch everyone practice every day. So he thought of a way to help Lilia practice, which was to serve as a sparring partner for her.
However, he had to teach his disciples, so he could only serve as a sparring partner for Lilia when his disciples were practicing on their own and did not need his constant supervision.
The so-called sparring is to let Lilia attack him, and he does not fight back, but only avoids her attacks.
In fact, real sparring is a two-person fight, but Instructor He was afraid that he would accidentally hurt Lilia and then not be able to explain to Ling Xiao, so he seldom took action.
The only thing that made Lilia feel regretful was that she couldn't learn such interesting spells and cool swordsmanship.
Xuantian Sect is a sword sect, so naturally it mainly practices swordsmanship. Therefore, Instructor He only taught a few basic spells that were needed for daily use, and then began to teach the disciples sword moves.
Today, Instructor He taught everyone a new sword move. As usual, he first explained the key points to his disciples, then demonstrated it again, and then asked them to practice on their own. If they didn't know how to do it, they could ask him for advice. If he found that his disciples' movements were not standard, he could correct them.
Instructor He had some free time and decided to go practice with Lilia, but he didn't expect to see the little one sleeping soundly under the shade of a tree.
Although Instructor He looks younger than Instructor Lin, he is actually a generation older than Instructor Lin. However, although he is older than Instructor Lin, he is not as old-fashioned as Instructor Lin. Instead, he is very open-minded. When he saw Lilia fell asleep during class, he was not angry and did not even wake her up, allowing her to continue sleeping.
In Instructor He's opinion, Lilia is just a cub that is less than half a year old. He cannot be too harsh on her and it's okay for her to be lazy occasionally.
What's more, it's not that she hasn't made any progress. He has seen how fast Lilia's cultivation has increased over the past month.
Instructor He no longer looked at Lilia, but continued to supervise his disciples.
"Fu Shinian! What are you doing?" Instructor He's eyes fell on the absent-minded little boy. Seeing that he made four mistakes in one move without noticing, he shouted loudly.
Awakened by Instructor He's voice, Fu Shinian quickly came back to his senses, bowed his head and admitted his mistake, "I was distracted, please punish me, Instructor."
"Practice the sword moves I just taught you five hundred times. If you haven't completed them yet, you will stay in the academy tonight and continue practicing. You can only go back after you have practiced five hundred times."
Upon hearing this, Fu Shinian did not argue, but responded "yes", then waved his sword again and practiced over and over again the sword moves that Instructor He had just taught him.
Although Instructor He has an easy-going personality and does not seem strict, he does not like his disciples to disobey his punishment. If any disciple dares to argue, he will be punished more severely.
In fact, the reason why Fu Shinian was distracted just now had something to do with Lilia, because he saw Lilia sleeping and was discovered by Instructor He, and was worried that Lilia would be punished for it, so he was distracted for a while and made a mistake.
However, Fu Shinian saw that after Instructor He found out that Lily was sleeping, he did not punish her or even wake her up.
It turned out that his worries were unnecessary, as Instructor He had no intention of punishing Lilia.
But it's also true that Lilia is different from them. She can't learn what they are practicing and can only watch from the side. So how could Instructor He be angry because she was sleeping while everyone was practicing.
Lilia had no idea that it was because of her that Fu Shinian was punished by Instructor He. She was sleeping soundly at the moment.
Normally she would take a nap and sleep for half an hour before waking up. But today, she followed Xiao Lingyu and the others down the mountain to stroll around the city, so she missed the lunch break, which was why she felt sleepy and fell asleep.
If not for this, she would definitely not fall asleep during class, because when she first came, she was slapped by Instructor Lin for this reason.
Although the pain from being hit with a ruler was not particularly painful, it still made Lilia remember it in her mind, reminding her not to sleep in the classroom.
"Lilia, wake up quickly. Instructor He is gone."
Lilia was woken up by someone. She opened her sleepy eyes and was still a little groggy from just waking up.
“Hmm…”
After a long while, she finally came to her senses and looked at the disciples surrounding her.
"Why is everyone gathered here?"
Hearing this, everyone explained, "School is over now."
"Oh, Lilia actually fell asleep. Teacher He, I hope he didn't notice that Lilia was secretly sleeping?" Lilia then remembered that this was in the school classroom, and she suddenly became a little panicked.
"Yes, but don't worry, Lilia. Instructor He didn't punish you. He found you asleep and didn't even wake you up."
Lilia felt relieved when she heard that Teacher He did not punish her even though he found out that she had fallen asleep, and even let her continue sleeping.
The crisis was resolved, and Lilia became cheerful. She immediately said to everyone, "Lilia is going back."
However, as soon as she finished speaking, she was stopped by everyone.
"Lilia, don't leave in such a hurry. We still have a lot to talk to you about!"
"Yes, Lilia. There is no rush. Just stay a little longer."
Although Lilia didn't know what everyone wanted to talk to her about, seeing everyone like this, she nodded in agreement.
"Okay, but not for too long. If Lilia goes back late, Uncle Ling will be worried."
"Don't worry, it won't take too long." When everyone heard Lilia mention Ling Xiao, they all gave assurances.
Before Lilia could fly, Ling Xiao came to the school to pick her up and drop her off every day. As time went by, everyone knew his identity, so everyone was afraid of him.
