As the core of the duchy, the imperial capital’s martial pavilion was naturally the strongest.

Geniuses were as common as clouds there and their standards far surpassed the martial pavilions of other cities.

“You all should know that the imperial capital’s martial pavilion’s test is the toughest. For this test paper, their passing rate is also merely 50%!” the Vice Headmaster spoke.

Everyone exchanged glances when they heard this.

Their Lone Cloud City’s martial pavilion only had a 10% passing rate while the imperial capital had 50%. It was five times more!

What was there to feel gratified about?

Why was the Vice Headmaster smiling so happily?

“But, there isn’t a student from the imperial capital that managed to score full marks. At most, the highest only got 90 marks!”

“While our martial pavilion, there’s a student who scored full marks!”

Ah!

There were so many monstrous existences in the imperial capital’s martial pavilion, yet none of them scored full marks while someone from their Lone Cloud City did?

The three martial tutors all turned their gazes toward Qin Lin, their gazes burning like torches.

“That’s right. That person is none other than a student from the D class. Come, let us use our warmest applause to congratulate martial tutor Qin!” From this, one could tell that the Vice Headmaster was extremely happy.

The three other martial tutors felt extremely puzzled. Half of their emotions were actually that of jealousy as they applauded.

Qin Lin who had always felt neglected suddenly had a sense of agitation as though he had managed to arrive at the peak of his life.

“Thanks to the masterful guidance from tutor Qin Lin, only that would have educated a genius like Xia Qingchen.” The Vice Headmaster sighed.

Qin Lin smiled and nodded. But all of a sudden, his neck turned stiff.

Who?

Xia Qingchen?

That student who refused to listen to even a single word from him? That fellow who handed in the ’empty paper’?

Qin Lin’s heart fell from the clouds all the way to the bottom of the valley.

“Martial tutor Qin, why don’t you tell us about how you used just three days to impart such profound martial theory to Xia Qingchen?” The Vice Headmaster laughed. At the same time, he glanced at the three martial tutors. “You guys should listen attentively and do your best to learn from martial tutor Qin’s valuable experience!’

How would the three martial tutors dare to be careless? All of them respectively listened attentively.

Qin Lin was suddenly thrust into a difficult situation. He unceasingly wiped away the sweat on his forehead as he hem and haw. “Eh… My explanation covered everything and I did my best to allow the independent learning potential of my students to be unleashed to their fullest. Only then was I able to invoke their enthusiasm.”

Other than this, what else could he say?

Should he tell everyone here that he basically had never bothered with Xia Qingchen before?

The Vice Headmaster and the other three were puzzled. What experience sharing was this? Did it mean to ignore the students and let them study independently?

However, they soon misunderstood it that martial tutor Qin Lin wasn’t willing to disclose it to everyone.

“Correct. I hope the three of you will properly delve into the valuable experience of martial tutor Qin Lin,” the Vice Headmaster concluded.

After that, he solemnly announced another matter, “The Wind-Cloud Meet is about to happen. Arrange the once-a-year excursion for the students to temper themselves.”

“Yes!”

“In addition, do not reveal the results of the test paper that I shared with you today to prevent the imperial capital from knowing,” the Vice Headmaster continued.

If the imperial capital learned that the Lone Cloud City had produced a genius that scored full marks, they most probably would send people here to investigate and bring him away, luring him with many good conditions.

“Understood!”

After the Vice Headmaster left, Li Weifeng and the two other martial tutors walked together.

“What’s going on? The rubbish D class actually produced a student that got full marks? Also, he just entered the D class for three days?”

“Anyway. I don’t believe this! I think that Qin Lin might have told Xia Qingchen the answer to the test paper beforehand. This must be why Xia Qingchen could get full marks.”

“Absolutely impossible! The test paper has not passed through the hands of any tutors and was given straight to the students. None of us would be able to see the questions beforehand.”

“Also, there are many questions in this test paper where even we might not be able to answer. How can someone useless like Qin Lin help Xia Qingchen to get all the answers correct?”

“That’s true too. In that case, things are pretty strange now!”

“Forget it. Let’s stop talking about this. The Vice Headmaster has spoken, and we have to keep the test results a secret.”

…

Among them, the one with the heaviest emotions was none other than Li Weifeng.

Xia Qingchen’s threat was getting increasingly huge.

Qin Lin returned to the training chamber in a dazed state.

“Martial tutor Qin, something bad is going on. Xia Qingchen is currently beating Cheng Wei and the others up. We aren’t able to pull them apart.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Lin instantly moved over.

And as expected, Xia Qingchen was fighting against Cheng Wei and two others of the D class.

Naturally, rather than a fight, it was more like a one-sided beating.

In Xia Qingchen’s hands, they were beaten up so badly that their faces swell. They had no way to fight back at all.

And as for Xia Qingchen, he didn’t seem to have the slightest injury at all.

“Hold it! What’s going on?” Qin Lin walked over and stopped them as he asked in a loud voice.

The students at the side then truthfully told him what happened.

So it turned out that Cheng Wei got two other students to provoke Xia Qingchen who was cultivating when he, the martial tutor, wasn’t around. The reason was that Cheng Wei wanted revenge because Xia Qingchen had injured him on the training grounds.

But no one had expected that Xia Qingchen would instantly act upon being disturbed.

The three of them wanted to depend on their superiority in numbers to beat up and subdue Xia Qingchen. But who knew that Xia Qingchen was so terrifyingly strong? He viciously beat up the three of them instead.

They were beaten up so badly that they were begging for mercy. They were in an extremely miserable state.

“Martial tutor Qin, you have to get justice for us!” Cheng Wei’s entire body was covered in blood. He was lying on the ground as he pleaded for help.

Given Qin Lin and Xia Qingchen’s bad relationship, Qin Lin would definitely use this chance to expel Xia Qingchen, right?

A private fight was a very serious matter in the martial pavilion.

However, Qin Lin directly sent a kick at Cheng Wei. He angrily berated, “Cheng Wei, you just came to the D class and already started to provoke and gang up on other students! You must treat the prestige of the martial pavilion as nonexistence. Scram out of the martial pavilion! I, Qin Lin, cannot teach a student like you!”

Wa~

The atmosphere instantly froze. The world seemed to stop.

They felt that they heard things wrongly.

The one Qin Lin punished wasn’t Xia Qingchen but Cheng Wei instead?

“Martial tutor, he was the one who acted first. We are the ones being beaten up!” Cheng Wei’s eyes were wide open. He felt so wronged.

They felt that Qin Lin’s mind must be spoilt. He actually gave such a ridiculous judgment.

“It’s because you guys provoked him first!” Qin Lin mercilessly waved his hands. “Scram immediately. If you are unhappy, you can complain about this to the internal affairs department of the martial pavilion.”

He added another sentence silently in his heart. It was useless even if they complained.

The martial pavilion would never expel a genius student like Xia Qingchen who scored full marks for a few trash.

After that, his expression turned gentle. In fact, he who always had a strict expression even squeezed out a smile now. “Student Xia, in the future, you can rest at ease and cultivate in my resting chamber. That place is quieter and you won’t be disturbed by the outside world.”

Everyone felt confused again.

Resting chamber? That was something specially constructed for a martial tutor. Students had no qualifications to enter that place.

Yet, Qin Lin allowed Xia Qingchen to use it directly!?

Only he was clear at what a heaven-defying character Xia Qingchen was.

If he didn’t provide help to Xia Qingchen now, when should he do so?

“Thanks.” Xia Qingchen’s heart was like a clear mirror. He could roughly guess at why Qin Lin’s attitude toward him changed.

Qin Lin nodded and announced, “A month later, the D class will participate in an excursion. So, from now onward, you guys have to undergo an arduous bout of willpower training!”

Ahhh~

The expressions of the students paled.

Willpower training was extremely tough. They had to fight constantly to surpass their limits again and again, achieving the effect of training their willpower.

The pain of the process was clear even without words describing it.

After Xia Qingchen heard this, he showed no interest at all. Given his strength, if he sparred against this bunch of students, even if they came at him together, he wouldn’t suffer any injuries at all. What’s there to talk about willpower training?

Hence, he turned and directly walked into the resting chamber, focusing on cultivating his martial skills there.

“Martial tutor Qin, why can he choose not to go?” Liu Yiyi bit her lips as she pointed at Xia Qingchen, not convinced at all.
