Chapter 1165 A New Teacher
"Goodbye, Teacher Lu."
After class, the students went home in groups of two or three. When passing by the gate, everyone glanced at the black-clad swordsman who was sitting in the corner and had no sense of presence.
After all the students had left, Xue Shilou finally spoke.
"Brother Daoist Lu, you seem to be quite interested." Xue Shilou held it in for a long time before saying this.
Sword cultivators are generally not good at speaking, with the Silent Taoist and Lu Yang being the two exceptions.
Xue Shilou really didn't know what to say. He was teaching a group of students boxing in a martial arts gym. It seemed that the students didn't know Lu Yang's identity, otherwise they wouldn't have reacted so calmly.
Why teach them? Teach me. How much is a lesson at your martial arts school? I'll sign up too! "Experience life. I heard that Xue Daoyou has a good reputation in the Far North." Lu Yang teased.
During the Sword Tower Sword-asking Ceremony, Xue Shilou was still a little famous in the Far North. After not seeing him for a few years, he didn't expect that Xue Shilou was so famous in the Far North that he could be called the most talented swordsman in the Far North.
With the cultivation level of the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, this talent really allows one to roam freely in the Far North. Even if one encounters an opponent at the level of a great demon king, one can escape safely.
"They are all praised by the world, but they are far inferior to Fellow Daoist Lu." Xue Shilou knew that he was only famous in the Far North. No one would know him outside of the Far North.
Lu Yang is different. It is no exaggeration to say that he is famous all over the world.
Xue Shilou seemed to have finally found a topic and took the initiative to chat: "The sword energy on the body of the Frost Elephant Demon King is really daunting. Even if I cultivate to the Tribulation Crossing Stage, I don't have the confidence to strike a sword that can match it."
"I didn't expect that there is such a strange person in our Far North. He killed the four demon kings with one sword, and the killing was clean and neat. The sword energy lasted for a long time. I heard that there was a sword cultivator in Muxue City who was so ashamed of himself when he saw the sword energy and almost gave up the sword."
Xue Shilou said confidently: "I have a hunch that the opportunity for me to break through to the Void Refining Stage is right here in Muxue City. Observing this sword energy and comprehending some of its mysteries will definitely help my sword intent reach a higher level."
"Speaking of which, why is Fellow Daoist Lu in Muxue City? Is he here to observe the sword energy as well?"
"Oh, that sword energy was left by me."
"Cough cough——" Xue Shilou started coughing violently, his cheeks turned red with shame, and he almost coughed out his lungs.
"you?!"
Seeing Xue Shilou's big reaction, Lu Yang was a little surprised: "Fellow Daoist Xue, don't you know that I am now in the Void Refining Stage, and I am transforming into a mortal here."
"You're already in the Void Refining Stage?!"
Xue Shilou coughed even more. During the Sword-asking Ceremony, he was in the middle stage of the Spiritualization, while Lu Yang was in the early stage of the Spiritualization. Later, he was captured by the Laurel Palace because his senior brother insisted on taking him to sneak across the border. With the help of the Laurel Palace, he truly awakened the bloodline of the Snow Emperor. After that, he went to the Far North to practice hard. How come Lu Yang's practice progress was faster than his? "That's not right. Even if you are in the Void Refining Stage and your realm fluctuates to the Fusion Stage, you can't cut that sword!"
"You're talking about this. That's because when I broke through the Void Refining Stage and crossed the tribulation, I accidentally attracted an unprecedented thunder tribulation. As a result, my Void Refining Stage is different from others. My realm fluctuates from the Qi Refining Stage to the Tribulation Crossing Stage."
Xue Shilou was completely numb. He felt that he should not have come to Muxue City.
Even though he thought he had a firm faith, he couldn't withstand such repeated blows.
"Does Brother Lu want to stay in Muxue City?"
"My realm is constantly fluctuating. It might be dangerous if I go somewhere else. For now, I'll stay in this martial arts gym."
"Is the martial arts school still recruiting? Can I be here?" Xue Shilou asked excitedly.
He had originally planned to stay in Muxue City for a while to learn the sword energy from the corpse of the Great Demon King Hanxiang. Now that Lu Yang was here, why would he still look for the Great Demon King Hanxiang?
"You should ask Uncle Murong about this. Oh, Uncle Murong is the leader of the Tiger Roar Sect."
Lu Yang could see what Xue Shilou meant, but he didn’t care. It didn’t matter who he taught.
Xue Shilou straightened his clothes and went to visit the leader of the Tiger Roar Sect.
He was not afraid that Murong You would recognize him. Although he was famous, few people in the Far North had seen his true face. He was recognized by someone by chance before, and that person shouted excitedly, causing others to follow suit and chase after him.
Of course, the most important reason is that he doesn't know how to disguise himself.
Sword cultivators do things uprightly, how could they do something shady?
Uncle Murong's cave was in the deepest part of the backyard of the martial arts hall. Lu Yang took Xue Shilou there and asked, "Is Uncle Murong here?"
"Enter."
Lu Yang and Xue went into the tenth floor.
"Xiao Lu, who is this?"
"Hello, Sect Master Murong, my last name is Xue, I'm a friend of Teacher Lu, and I want to teach in our martial arts school."
Murong You was shocked: "You are Xiao Lu's friend? Xiao Lu's memory has been restored?"
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
“…I have partially recovered.”
Murong Youren was old and experienced and figured out the key point in an instant. Xiao Lu's memory had only been partially restored and he could not be stimulated. He had to recover step by step. In order to take care of Xiao Lu, his friends decided to stay in his martial arts gym for a while.
"What is Teacher Xue's level of cultivation? What do you want to teach?"
"Hua... The early stage of foundation building. I have some experience in swordsmanship and can teach them swordsmanship."
"Swordsmanship is not good enough." Uncle Murong shook his head. "Swords are valuable items. My students' families generally don't have much money and can't even afford a sword. If you teach them swordsmanship, they won't be able to use it."
Xue Shilou turned to ask Lu Yang for help. He didn't know anything else. Could he teach students how to maintain their demeanor during battle and prevent blood from splattering on their clothes? Lu Yang stepped forward and spoke for Xue Shilou: "He can teach the rake method and the shovel method."
"Raking and shoveling? That works." Murong You's eyes lit up. She didn't expect that Xiao Lu's friends knew so many things.
Rakes and shovels are both farming tools, and can also be used as weapons at critical moments. However, this type of weapon is quite unpopular, and there are few people in the entire Muxue City who can use it.
Do I know how to rake and shovel? Xue Shilou thought about it and realized that he did. As the saying goes, there are three thousand ways to the same destination. He was obsessed with swords and had practiced to the stage of transformation. He could apply what he had learned to other weapons and knew how to use them. It was more than enough for him to teach a group of students.
"If it's a monthly payment, how about five spirit stones per month?"
"Okay." Xue Shilou doesn't care how much money he makes.
"Then you can live next door to Xiao Lu."
After officially becoming a teacher, Xue Shilou can legitimately stay in the martial arts gym to learn swordsmanship from Lu Yang.
"Fellow Daoist Lu Yang, I have some doubts about this sword technique..."
Lu Yang rolled his eyes at Xue Shilou and said, "What kind of sword skills, rake skills, and shovel skills do you know? Go and practice them yourself first, otherwise how are you going to teach the students tomorrow?"
"oh."
On Xue Shilou's first day at the Tiger Roar Martial Arts School, he learned how to use a rake and a shovel.
