Rise of the Great Emperor

Chapter 176: Entering the Academy

Chapter 176: Entering the Academy

Lin Xiao glanced at Sui Wenyan who seemed to be pondering deeply. It seemed that she had understood what the teacher wanted with just few clues unlike Lin Xiao who needed Lin Hu’s reminder.

’What kind of path do I want to take?’

Lin Xiao also began to ponder deeply. He had to consider this carefully because he would stay more than a decade in Sun Dragon Academy.

All this time, Lin Xiao had long gotten used with the method of fighting closely. After all, Mountain Punch was a close combat skill that relied heavily on the power that one could harness in their fist. Because of that, he also had to learn movement skill so that he would not be lagging behind.

Thinking about Moon Evasion and Mountain Punch, Lin Xiao furrowed his brows. If he became an Emperor, it was undoubtable that he would have to stand at the very peak and become the center of attention. However, he knew that his starting line was very low, too low to contend against them.

Right now, he was not their match and could only prepare himself in the darkness in silence. He would need more time if he wished to be able to contend with those people.

And the method that he could think off right now was...

Assassination.

Since he couldn’t fight them in the open yet, he would have to learn how to be able to kill his opponent in the most efficient and fastest method. His current skill in Mountain Punch and Mountain Sword were not bad, but they were far from the peak. In addition, he was also learning Moon Evasion that was his primary movement skill. It was the skill that allowed him to be fast and able to kill his movement quickly.

’In that case, I’ll focus on speed.’

Even if he couldn’t defeat his opponent, he wanted to have ability to run. His opponents were all stronger than him because their starting point was higher. Not to mention, they have a lot of supporters and backing on their back.

For him, who started as nothing more than a single youth who was fighting at the edge of the village without anyone to help, he had to start slowly.

First, he had to prioritize his life.

Second, he would prioritize his speed and strength.

Only that way would he be able to steadily made his way to the peak and then become the next Emperor.

’Let’s do this.’

Clenching his fist, Lin Xiao had already decided on what kind of path he wanted to make. It might not be the best path, but it was the one that he wanted to follow no matter what. It should be the best one for him too.

The elder was watching the youngsters below him in satisfaction. The rules inside Sun Dragon Academy was often known outside, but there were still many of them who were unclear of it.

"Alright, now all of you shall follow me to Sun Dragon Academy. I hope that all of you have already bid farewell to your family because you won’t be able to meet with them again. Don’t worry, we won’t stop you from contacting through Communication Jade when you’re in the academy."

"Please wait, can we ask something?"

"What is it?" the elder waited.

"Do we have to stay in Sun Dragon Academy all the time?" a youth asked with uncertain tone. The thought of living inside the academy for 10 full years didn’t sound too good to him. While it was true that many of them pursued the peak of martial arts, they also have their own families.

Many wanted to visit their families.

"You can go out during missions but there’s time limit in each mission." The elder naturally knew what the youth was worried about. "if you can manage your time and make sure that you can come back within the time limit, you may visit your hometown during the mission’s time."

The youth sighed with relief.

"But remember. If you don’t return back to the academy in the time limit, you need to give explanation why you’re late. If the explanation is because you’re visiting your hometown, you’ll be kicked out of the academy."

The new disciples all felt their scalp turned cold when they heard that heartless tone. After all, they were accepted as disciples because they wanted to become stronger, so obviously the academy also wished for them to stay true to their worth and behavior because they didn’t want to waste their resources for something that didn’t give them any benefit at all.

They nurtured the geniuses so that they would be able to grow stronger.

"Any other question?" The elder swept his gaze to the youngsters.

Silence.

Since there was no one who spoke again, the elder nodded his head in satisfaction. He pointed to the side as he began to instruct them to walk through the gate. There was teleportation device that would bring them straight to Sun Dragon Academy.

Swish!

Lin Xiao could feel that his surroundings changed in just a step. His eyes widened at the large area before him. Several majestic buildings could be seen from his position and there were many powerful cultivators who were staying there. They were all walking around, treating the academy as their own home.

Indeed, since they had already stayed here for years, how could they not be familiar with it.

Some of them looked in the direction of the new students and realized that it was already the time of the year for new students again. They nodded then walked away. Some of the students there were older but many of them were also younger. After all, those who passed last year didn’t necessarily enter when they were 20 years old.

They could try when they were at younger age as long as they have enough money to pay for the fees.

The only qualification was that they were above Body Training Rank 6 and below 20 years of age.
