Tianshui Academy's curriculum was relatively relaxed, with only four classes a day: two in the morning and two in the afternoon.
Besides lecturing students in class, the academy's teachers also guided students in Spirit fighting drills, taught them singing and dancing, and arranged for students to cultivate their Spirit in the simulated environment.
All the Spirit Masters at Tianshui Academy were water-attribute, and the simulated environment was a huge lake with some buildings on the surface, like a water park.
When cultivating in the simulated environment, some students cultivated in pavilions on the lake, while others entered the lake to cultivate, and when inspiration struck, they directly practiced various Spirit Abilities in the lake.
A group of beautiful women playing in the water were like fairies emerging from the water, a very alluring scene. This was also why Tianshui Academy prohibited male Spirit Masters from entering; imagine, if male Spirit Masters were in such a simulated environment, how could they focus on cultivating?
The learning life of a Spirit Master in this other World was much more relaxed than studying in his previous life. There were no after-school assignments or various brain-burning exams here. For Ye Liangchen, who had suffered from the heavy study burden, it was truly too easy.
On his very first day of enrollment, Ye Liangchen fell in love with this kind of learning life. This incredibly relaxed curriculum was simply too enjoyable. However, Ye Liangchen also understood that in a cruel other World, he couldn't live too comfortably.
The next morning, in Ye Liangchen's classroom, Su Lin was chattering away, explaining Spirit Beast knowledge to the Xiao Jiahuo.
"Dear students, as we all know, Spirit Beasts are classified into Ten-year, Hundred-year, Thousand-year, Ten-Thousand Year, and Ten-Thousand Year levels. Do you know what colors these spirit rings are, respectively?"
As soon as Su Lin asked this question, many students eagerly rushed to answer.
"Teacher! A Ten-year spirit ring is white, a Hundred-year spirit ring is yellow, a Thousand-year spirit ring is purple, a Ten-Thousand Year spirit ring is black, and a Ten-Thousand Year spirit ring is red."
Su Lin smiled, "Very good! It seems you are all doing well. By learning this knowledge, it will be easier for you to find suitable Spirit Beasts when you acquire spirit rings in the future."
"Teacher Su Lin! What color would the spirit ring be for a Spirit Beast that is over Ten-Thousand Year?"
"And what about a Million-year Spirit Beast?"
At this moment, Ye Liangchen suddenly spoke faintly, astonishing everyone else in the classroom, including Su Lin.
"Hmm! Xiao Chen! No one has ever seen a Spirit Beast of that level, and it's unknown if they even exist."
Su Lin looked at the Xiao Jiahuo asking such an exaggerated question and was immediately exasperated. She felt he was being argumentative.
"Million-year Spirit Beast?"
"The Spirit Beast Encyclopedia only records Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Beasts. What Xiao Chen Didi said probably doesn't exist."
Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu, a group of Little girls, also expressed their thoughts, believing that Spirit Beasts exceeding Ten-Thousand Year did not exist.
"Teacher Su Lin! I think that since there are Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Beasts, there must be Two-hundred-thousand-year ones, and even Million-year ones."
Ye Liangchen said indifferently, not caring whether everyone believed him or not. He just pretended to be curious and said it, his purpose being to break people's perceptions.
"Xiao Chen Didi! Why do you think there are Spirit Beasts that exceed Ten-Thousand Year?" Shui Bing'er asked curiously.
"Hehe! I guessed it."
Ye Liangchen scratched his head and smiled foolishly. For now, he couldn't tell everyone that there were also a bunch of fierce beasts on the Douluo Continent, otherwise, he would scare them silly.
"Da da…"
Su Lin took long, slender strides, her heels clicking crisply on the floor as she gracefully walked towards Ye Liangchen, her high heels making a pleasant sound.
"Xiao Chen! Teacher feels you're deliberately causing trouble."
Arriving in front of Ye Liangchen, Su Lin deliberately put on a stern face, staring intently at the Xiao Jiahuo's innocent face, pretending to be very serious.
"Teacher Su Lin! I just made a deduction based on what's recorded in the Spirit Beast Encyclopedia, that's all. Please don't mind it."
Ye Liangchen spread his hands. Anyway, he had already said it; whether they believed it or not was up to them to decide.
"All right! Teacher knows you're smart and can infer from one example."
"But even if there are Spirit Beasts exceeding Ten-Thousand Year, they are not something we can come into contact with. We haven't even seen a Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Beast, let alone understood them."
Su Lin recalled the divine matters she learned from Di Tian and Bi Ji in the Star Dou Forest a while ago, so it was indeed possible that Spirit Beasts exceeding Ten-Thousand Year existed.
"Teacher Su Lin! Is what Xiao Chen Didi said true?" Shui Bing'er and her group of Little girls leaned over, asking curiously.
"Teacher doesn't know either; this is just Xiao Chen's guess."
Su Lin spread her hands, looking as if to say, 'You ask me, whom do I ask?' If Ye Liangchen hadn't brought it up, she wouldn't have thought in that direction.
"Ding dong dong…"
At this moment, the dismissal bell rang, signaling the end of the morning classes and the arrival of lunchtime.
"Dear students! That concludes this morning's class. Class dismissed."
"Xiao Chen! Come with Teacher."
Su Lin announced the end of class to the students, then grabbed Ye Liangchen's small hand and walked out of the classroom.
"Hey! Teacher Su Lin! We still need to take Xiao Chen Didi to eat! Where are you taking him?" Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er, seeing their Didi being led away by Su Lin, quickly shouted from behind.
"Bing'er, Yue'er, Teacher has arranged Xiao Chen's lunch today."
Su Lin turned back and smiled at the two Little girls, thinking, 'How could I let the Xiao Jiahuo go hungry? Then I'd be a useless teacher.'
"Teacher Su Lin! You're not going to punish me, are you?"
Ye Liangchen followed beside Su Lin, thinking that he had deliberately asked that exaggerated question in class earlier, and this woman thought he was being argumentative. Would she really punish him?
Lan Xiaodie had previously instructed Su Lin that if Ye Liangchen was mischievous in class, she could directly discipline him. Although Lan Xiaodie doted on the Xiao Jiahuo, she was very strict when it came to his education.
Su Lin found it very amusing to see Ye Liangchen's bewildered and slightly scared expression.
"Hehe… Don't worry! Although the Dean instructed me, how could I bear to punish you?"
Su Lin reached out and rubbed the Xiao Jiahuo's cheek, then pulled him and continued walking towards her residence.
Soon, the two arrived in front of a luxurious building, which was the academy teachers' residence. Each teacher had a 100-square-meter house, all three-bedroom, two-living room mansions.
"Good afternoon, teachers!"
Upon arriving, Ye Liangchen saw other teachers and quickly greeted them, a necessary quality for a good student.
"Xiao Chen! Are you accustomed to school?"
"Come eat with Teacher!"
These teachers who didn't eat in the cafeteria all returned to their residences to cook. Seeing Ye Liangchen return with Su Lin, they enthusiastically came over, surrounding the Xiao Jiahuo and asking him many questions.
Ye Liangchen was the only male Spirit Master in the entire academy, and he was also a cute little boy, which made him a rare species. Everyone liked him very much.
"Teachers! Xiao Chen is having lunch with me today. Please help yourselves!"
Su Lin smiled charmingly, then pulled the Xiao Jiahuo into her house.
Watching Su Lin's protective demeanor, several female teachers revealed gossipy smiles.
"This woman couldn't get Xiao Chen's father back then. Is she now going to raise the Xiao Jiahuo as her son?"
"It's very possible. Love doesn't disappear; it just transfers, hahaha…"
"Don't talk nonsense. If the Dean hears you, you'll be in trouble!"
Upon entering Su Lin's house, Ye Liangchen's eyes lit up. The entire room was furnished very artistically, looking very comfortable. The walls were covered with various beautiful landscape paintings, and there were also a few portraits of Su Lin herself, looking very sexy and charming.
"Teacher Su Lin! Your house is very beautiful!"
Ye Liangchen also saw a cabinet with over a dozen bottles of fine wine and some expensive tea leaves, thinking to himself that this woman really knew how to enjoy life.
"Your teacher's monthly salary is 1000 gold coins, so I'm considered a wealthy person. Naturally, I have to enjoy life properly."
Su Lin smiled sweetly, took out a bag from a drawer, and handed it to Ye Liangchen.
"Xiao Chen! This is the school uniform custom-made for you by the academy. Keep it safe."
"You play here for a bit; Teacher will go cook right away. There will be delicious food soon."
After giving a few instructions, Su Lin entered the kitchen, put on an apron, and began cooking.
"Thank you, Teacher."
Ye Liangchen took the bag, opened it, and saw four sets of clothes inside. They were blue and white, looked very comfortable, and were made of high-quality fabric. The clothing styles were well-designed, with high artistic merit, about three or four stories high.
Half an hour later, Su Lin had finished cooking and called Ye Liangchen over to eat.
"Xiao Chen! How is it? Does the school uniform look good?"
"It looks good! No wonder Aunt Lan said before that the school earns millions of gold coins annually just from the clothing business."
"Of course! Those clothes are almost all designed by our Tianshui Academy graduates. Everyone is beautiful, and their aesthetic taste is very high…"
The two ate and chatted, creating a very warm atmosphere.
…
Time passed slowly. Three months later, Lan Xiaodie referred to the Hun Yuan Skill upper volume as a new meditation method, then allowed a portion of talented students to cultivate it, also requiring these students to swear an oath by their Spirit not to disclose any information.
As for the exquisite martial skill, Five Elements Divine Fist, it was split into five different fist techniques for all students to learn, to enhance their physical fitness, and was externally simply called a martial skill.
Many senior teachers in the academy were all students of the former Dean, Shui Lingfeng, and were core members. They could all cultivate the complete set of cultivation methods. As for Myriad Plum Blossoms Welcoming the Wind and Celestial Flight, those were Ye Liangchen's exclusive sword techniques, and Lan Xiaodie did not contribute them.
Lan Xiaodie could only implement small-scale reforms in the academy. Before Tianshui Academy had absolute strength, she dared not spread the cultivation methods.
Ye Liangchen felt that even if Lan Xiaodie and the others only brought out the Five Elements Divine Fist and the Hun Yuan Art upper volume for teaching, in time, Tianshui Academy would surely shock the World.
In these three months, Ye Liangchen had learned all the knowledge taught in the beginner, intermediate, and advanced classes, greatly astonishing all the teachers and students of the academy.
In fact, the knowledge taught in class was nothing more than Spirit Master cultivation knowledge and the human geography of the Two Great Empires. For Ye Liangchen, who was a transmigrator, he already knew all of it, and there wasn't much to learn about Douluo's knowledge.
But the academy's teachers thought he was just incredibly talented, with the ability to remember everything at a glance. They believed he could remember things from textbooks after reading them and even infer from them.
"Aunt Lan! I've already learned all that knowledge. Now I don't have to go to class in the classroom, right?"
After lunch that day, Ye Liangchen went to Lan Xiaodie's office and requested not to attend classes. Anyway, attending classes was a waste of time; it was better to return to Jingxian Manor to cultivate divine skills.
At this moment, Shui Lingfeng, Lan Xiaoling, Mu Qingxue, Su Lin, An Qi, Li Suyuan, and others were also present. Seeing the Xiao Jiahuo's proud look, they all offered to test him.
"Then we'll test you. If you can answer all of them, we'll agree to your request."
Lan Xiaodie, Shui Lingfeng, and the others were very relieved. The Xiao Jiahuo only spent three months learning all the knowledge the school had to teach. He was a super academic, a true peerless genius!
"I'm ready, just ask!" Ye Liangchen laughed inwardly: Ask whatever you want, you don't even know as much as I do!
"What are the major Sects in the Spirit Master's world?" Su Lin was the first to ask.
"Spirit Hall is the largest Spirit Master force, then there are Slaughter City and Sea God Island, and the rest are the Upper Three Sects and the Lower Four Sects…"
Ye Liangchen slowly listed these Spirit Master forces. Information about Slaughter City and Sea God Island was also recorded in Tianshui Academy's archives, but it wasn't publicly accessible, and Ye Liangchen had happened to read Tianshui Academy's archives.
Lan Xiaodie saw that the Xiao Jiahuo was well-versed in the Continent's forces, so she asked again, "What should a Spirit Master pay attention to when absorbing a Ten-Thousand Year spirit ring?"
"Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Beasts can generally awaken their intelligence. When Spirit Masters absorb a Ten-Thousand Year spirit ring, it will cause a soul tremor, impacting the Spirit Master's soul. Generally, a Spirit Master must reach level 50, with strong physical and spiritual qualities, to withstand the soul tremor brought by a Ten-Thousand Year spirit ring, otherwise, it's easy to become an idiot."
"Hmm! Not bad! What is the strongest support system Spirit on the Continent?" The women were very satisfied with the Xiao Jiahuo's answer, so they began to ask more questions.
Ye Liangchen answered without hesitation: "My Life Goddess Martial Soul is the strongest support system Spirit."
"Oh! Xiao Chen! Why do you say that?" Hearing Ye Liangchen say that his Life Goddess Martial Soul was the strongest support system Spirit, everyone was astonished.
"People say that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is the number one support system Spirit, but Spirit Masters with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda can only cultivate up to level 79 at most. I think it's not as good as the Nine Star Begonia. My Life Goddess Martial Soul has both support and attack abilities, so it definitely surpasses the level of those Spirits on the Continent."
"Pfft… Hehe… Alright! You've defeated us. From now on, you can arrange your time freely. Whether you go to class in the classroom or not is up to you."
"Thank you, Grandma Dean! Thank you, Aunt Lan! Thank you, teachers!"
Lan Xiaodie, Su Lin, and others asked many questions, and Ye Liangchen could answer all of them. In the end, he even declared that his Spirit was the strongest on the Continent, which made everyone laugh.
In fact, Ye Liangchen was right. The Life Goddess Martial Soul was a God King-level Spirit. Its ninth Spirit Ability, Life God Light, could probably even revive the dead, so it was indeed the strongest, only Lan Xiaodie and the others didn't know it.
After Ye Liangchen left Lan Xiaodie's office, he was in a great mood and quickly ran back to Jingxian Manor. For this day, he had spent three full months becoming a super academic, all for the purpose of being able to quietly cultivate various cultivation methods. It was truly not easy.
Shui Bing'er and Shui Yue'er saw the Xiao Jiahuo excitedly running back to the manor and immediately chased after him.
"Xiao Chen! Did your mother and the others agree to let you skip class?"
"That's right! Two Jie, from now on, I don't have to go to class in the classroom anymore!"
"Xiao Chen! You're amazing. You learned all that knowledge in just three months. We still have to stay in school and learn all sorts of knowledge."
"Hehe! I'm a genius!"
"Xiao Chen Didi is the best! We still have class this afternoon, so we'll head back to school first."
"Goodbye, two Jie."
Ye Liangchen said goodbye to the Shui Bing'er sisters, then ran back to Jingxian Manor.
However, seeing the excited expressions of the two Little girls, Ye Liangchen estimated that they would definitely skip class soon as well.
