Chapter 80: How Do I Teach You?
Translator: StarveClerc Editor: Frappe
"Elder Mo, seeing how we were friends for so many years, please spare me..." Upon hearing the punishment, Shang Chen hurriedly said.
He was the one who got Elder Mo here. The initial intention was to have him strip Zhang Xuan of his teaching license, yet... he only managed to crush his own legs with the boulder he moved. In the end, he was the one who was fired!
"It's all your fault, you spoiled brat!"
If not for this fellow being so adamant to bring trouble onto Zhang Xuan, he wouldn't have gotten into trouble.
He did not do it, but... someone had to believe his words first!
"Spare you? Elder Shang, it is precisely because of our years of friendship that I have already spared you of your dignity. Otherwise, if I were to report you of oppressing your colleagues to the Teacher Guild, it is likely that you would be stripped of your teaching license as well!" Elder Mo harrumphed coldly. "You better keep yourself in check from now on!"
"Zh
ang laoshi, we have troubled you today. For such a scum to appear among the teachers is a negligence on the Teacher Guild's part!" After dealing with the trio, Elder Mo turned to look at Zhang Xuan with an apologetic look.
Seeing his attitude, everyone felt impressed with him yet again.
[Did you see that, that is the magnanimity that a teacher should have.]
"Great, then I will be returning to the guild to settle these matters. I will make sure to give Zhang laoshi an explanation on the situation!" After which, Elder Mo glared hatefully at Elder Shang Chen for a moment before turning around to leave.
At this moment, Cao Xiong was being beaten to the point of nearing death. Upon seeing the situation here had been settled, Bai Xun walked up to him with a grin.
Nodding his head, Zhang Xuan walked out of the Enlightenment Will Tower along with the rest.
Were it not for the Wang clan, Bai Xun and Huang Yu's timely arrivals, even if he could handle the situation, it would have taken him a lot of effort.
Actually, he wasn't entirely truthful about his situation.
Innate Narrow Meridians, using the words of his previous life, meant that while others are an eight car lane, you are a bicycle track.
However, there was an inherent difference between it and Innate Sealed Meridians.
His cultivation going berserk did widen his narrow meridians, allowing him to cultivate even more easily. That was precisely the reason why his cultivation soared, allowing him to reach Juxi realm pinnacle.
In order to make it up for the other party, Zhang Xuan made a move to help him break through. At the same time, he also cleared away the trauma his previous self had left in his body, killing two birds with one stone.
As for how he successfully helped Zhao Yanfeng break through, actually the theory behind it was simple.
zhenqi in his body, it wasn't a difficult task for him to guide the other party to walk on the correct path to break through.
With the burden off his heart, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Walking out of the Enlightenment Will Tower, he gave permission for Wang Yan to listen in on his class, just like Wang Tao, and only then did the Wang clan leave.
However, Zhang Xuan immediately rejected this suggestion.
I am a transcender with a golden finger, someone who will become a mingshi sooner or later. If I allow people to come under me and leave as they please, wouldn't that trample on my dignity?
Rejected by Zhang Xuan, depression reflected on Zhao Yanfeng's face. However, after awhile, he seemed to recall something and resolution appeared in his eyes once more. Turning around, he followed behind Wang Yan and left.
Walking along the way, Zhang Xuan couldn't resist asking her.
To become a Master Teacher, one had to become an associate master teacher first.
"Oh!" Zhang Xuan nodded his head.
"You are an associate master teacher, then that bookstore..." Zhang Xuan looked at her doubtfully.
Furthermore, as an associate master teacher, her identity was even more prestigious than the elders of Hongtian Academy. There was no reason for her to open a remote bookstore in the market.
Shi is similar to laoshi, just a shorter version
Peering into the truth of matters was a field of knowledge by itself, and building rapport was a skill with great depth.
Sometimes, the best way to understand human nature and temper oneself was to go to the very bottom.
After chatting for a while, he gained a certain degree of understanding towards master teachers and associate master teachers.
What apothecary, blacksmith, appraiser… Of the numerous occupations in the Upper Nine Paths, none of them could compare with master teachers.
“Right, what is Master Lu Chen testing you all on, for you all to have to study under me?”
Bai Xun was the young son of Zhennan Wang whereas Huang Yu was the daughter of the guild leader of the Teacher Guild, not to mention that she herself was an associate master teacher. Logically speaking, given their social positions, there shouldn’t be any need for them to be tested by anyone else.
Huang Yu explained. “Ink Daylily Canvas?” Zhang Xuan frowned. “The one drawn by the master painter Mo Chenzi, Ink Daylily Canvas? Neither of you two understand paintings… Why would you want it?”
“It is… a gift!”
“Gift?”
She and Bai Xun had set their eyes upon this Ink Daylily Canvas at the same time and requested Master Lu Chen for it. The master agreed to gift it to them, but the prerequisites for it was that they had to pass his test first.
“Master Zhang, you have such deep understanding of painting, capable of seeing through the problems in it with just a glance. Can you teach us?”
“Indeed, please teach us!” Huang Yu also looked over.
The reason why he was able to appraise those painting was due to the help of the Library of Heaven’s Path. In reality… He didn’t know a single thing about paintings, so how could he teach them?
