Chapter 143: Qilin Hall (1/2)
Chapter 143: Qilin Hall
After Zhao Kun left Qilin Hall, he walked home filled with excitement.
The phonograph was an era creating invention.It was even more creative than the electrical lamps!
Zhao Kun was completely shocked by the fact that the knowledge within these sound discs surpassed the academy’s knowledge by thousands of years.He couldn’t wait to hear them all!
I really thought it was strange.How could that bastard Yun Xiao advance so quickly!
If I had this kind of resource, I would not lose to that fellow at all!
Only, Zhao Kun was born into a poor family and did not have a rich family to support him.With such an expensive tuition, he had no way of paying for it even if he sold everything!
Zhao Kun was not willing to fall behind others!
People could not be suppressed!There had to be a way!
Several rocks fell down around him and countless human figures appeared, instantly surrounding Zhao Kun.
This is bad!
Zhao Kun turned to run away.
“Hei, hei, hei!”
“Old master here has been waiting for a long time for you!”
A brawny face man with a cold expression stepped in front of him and blocked him.The other six people all had strong auras and it was clear that they were all experts.
“Wang Meng, what are you doing?!”
Wang Meng was the 26th ranked on the Azure Dragon Ranking and Zhao Kun was the 26th ranked on the Vermillion Bird Ranking, but even though they had the same rank, Wang Meng was much stronger than Zhao Kun.
Of the four Central State Academy Courtyards, the Vermillion Bird Courtyard was the weakest.The experts of the Vermillion Bird Rankings could not compare with the experts of the other three rankings.
“What am I doing?’Wang Meng cracked his fingers, immediately releasing a ka ka noise that sounded like beans cracking.He had a fiendish smile as he looked at Zhao Kung, “I already warned you not to go back to the Qilin Dojo!The results?You completely ignored what father said!If I don’t make you suffer a bit, who would listen to father in the future!”
Damn, they really are here to cause trouble!
Wang Meng was already hard enough to deal with alone, not to mention all the people he brought with him!
“Boss!Why are you wasting words with him?”
“Let’s beat him until he’s unable to stand up!Then we’ll see if he dares to disobey again!”
Wang Meng’s brothers were eager to fight.
“It’s impossible for me to withdraw!”Zhao Kun was ready to sacrifice everything as he shouted with a determined face, “My life is not worth anything!If you have the skills, then take it!”
Wang Meng was filled with curiosity, “Has your brain become stupid?Isn’t it just leaving the organization!It’s not like we’re asking you to kill your father right?”
“You don’t understand anything!”
“You dare say this to father!”
Wang Meng flew into a rage as he attacked.
Zhao Kun was inspired as he loudly shouted, “Wang Meng!Use your brain and think about it, why did Yun Xiao show off in the Vermillion Bird Courtyard?Why did Yun Xiao blatantly join the Qilin Hall like that?He was advertising for Qilin Hall!”
Wang Meng could not understand, “Advertising?Advertising for what!”
“Yun Xiao took the advanced Qilin Hall classes for three days and was reborn.The current you couldn’t even block two slashes from him!”
“Is this true?”
Wang Meng was shocked.
“You don’t believe me?”Zhao Kun’s eyes shined as he said, “How about we make a trade?There will be several classes at Qilin Hall tomorrow, I recommend you go and listen.Each class costs twenty thousand gold coins!”
“Fuck!”Wang Meng flew into a rage, “Twenty thousand for a single class?!This bastard thinks father is a fool!Everyone attack!Beat him!”
Zhao Kun was ready to make any sacrifice, “I’ll pay for you!”
Wang Meng was stunned.
Twenty thousand gold coins!
Although it wasn’t a lot, it still wasn’t a small amount.It was not something that a common Body Refinement Cultivator could never take out.Even if it was an Awakened Soul Cultivator, twenty thousand gold coins would be enough for them to buy an Elixir and increase their cultivation.
Zhao Kun said, “I’ll lend you the money!If you are satisfied, then you’ll just pay me back!If you are not satisfied, then you don’t need to return a single coin!”
Is he serious?
They were dumbfounded.
A class that cost twenty thousand gold coins was something that the top scholars of Central State City charged.Did that mean that Qilin Hall was hiding a mysterious expert?Thinking about how Yun Xiao had changed in two days, this was completely possible.
“Brother Meng, what do we do?”
“I feel like we can give it a try!”
“After all, that Yun Xiao’s change was too strange.”
“Since this idiot is paying for us, we might as well go and take a look!”
Wang Meng’s brothers were all filled with curiosity.It was just like what Chu Tian said, for a student of the Central State Academy, knowledge had a greater enticement than money.
“Alright!”
“We’ll give it a try!”
“If I find out that you’re speaking nonsense, father will beat you until you can’t even piss!”
Zhao Kun let out a sigh.
He had escaped this trial.
Wang Meng and his brothers left.Once they returned to the Azure Dragon Courtyard, they found that there were many people there discussing something.
“Did you hear?A mysterious treasure has appeared in Central State Academy!”
“Treasure?What treasure!”
“It’s a thing called the phonograph.It can completely record anything that a person says.It’s said that there is a grandmaster level character giving people lessons through recordings!”
“Are you serious?”
“Don’t doubt me, I saw it personally!It’s also said that Yun Xiao was reborn because he learned from the content recorded!”
“Is this real?Why don’t we go take a look as well!”
“…….”
Wang Meng’s group was stunned.
That brat did not lie to them!
In just a short evening, the news spread all over the Central State Academy.After the large family juniors of Qilin Hall came back, they began to appeal to their friends and families, doing everything possible to win them over.
Recruiting people could bring immediate benefits for them and could give surprising benefits to anyone they invited.With the resources at the Qilin Hall’s disposal, it was inevitable that they would rise up.Of course they would get more benefits for joining sooner!
Phonograph?
What kind of thing is this!
They had never heard of it before!
Dozens of people spread wonderful rumours.
How could this device talk?How strange!
What principle was this phonograph made from!
Another even heavier piece of news was spread around.The reason why Yun Xiao was reborn and could fight his way to the Vermillion Bird second rank was all because of this thing!
This was incredible!
Everyone began to ask around and find where these rumours came from.It was the Vermillion Bird Courtyard’s Qilin Hall!
