Master of Untold Daos

Chapter 471: Zhuo Qingyao’s Deterring Education

If not for their ardent belief in the warrior’s code, a few words would never have worked!

It was now that Chen Ming began to act. He never liked surprises, so he used any chance he got to beat someone when they were down!

As his opponent was busy being shocked, he leaped towards him with Nine Year Cicada.

Hegemonic Immortal Sword’s sword soul throbbed as it flowed into the blade.

It sent a black saber wave and only now did he came out of his stupor. Gu Te wanted to defend with his saw greatsword, but Chen Ming’s fourfold speed, plus his quick-acting, prevented that.

Blood splattered the ground and, with it, a head.

The word ‘blindsided’ stuck in Nu Xiao’s throat, that it was against the warrior’s code, but then he heard Chen Ming talking, “In a true fight, you need to avail yourself of all advantages!”

He wiped the bloody blade on a beast skin, “So weak, falling from one strike. Or better yet, my words from before weren’t clear enough. It’s my fault, all my fault I’m too strong.”

Hegemonic Immortal Sword’s power crushed any flesh and bone, cut all chances at life. Against those geniuses, one move was hardly enough, but the one before him was just an above-average footsoldier.

If he couldn’t insta-kill him, that would make all his auras a waste.

“Ding! Reward: 0.1 billion spiritual knowledge, 10,000 fame, 10,000 barbarian warriors, and Sky Whale.”

It was now that he turned to the masses, “Any objections?”

They all kneeled and one among them spoke, “Revered khan of the foxkin, your strong among strong. You have earned victory in this sacred fight of extermination. You have earned our devotion.”

Nu Xiao said, “Their man they were loyal to died. If no one takes them, they can only go home and feed milk to beast cubs.”

Chen Ming: …

No wonder they switched sides. They want to suck me dry instead, is it? “I’ll leave these men to you.”

Nu Xiao was overjoyed, “Thank you, khan of the foxkin.”

Nu Xiao still had his use, so he left the ten thousand barbarians to protect him. He worked with great enthusiasm as he arranged them as his own, “Hear that? The revered foxkin khan said you are all my warriors!”

No retort came. On one hand, Nu Xiao was also a khan, and on the other, Chen Ming still had a hundred thousand immortal beasts glaring at them.

Chen Ming was pretty peaked by this Sky Whale. He turned to his disciples, “Who wants the Sky Whale?”

Who didn’t? It could face-off against a Gold Immortal!

But they all knew propriety and cast their gazes on Li Suyi, Third senior brother is still here.

Li Suyi answered, “I am not too fond of raising beasts, while junior brother Zhang Ming is enamored with them. He always wanted to catch a Sky Whale. And so, I leave this beast to you.”

Such a surprise came out of the blue for him. Third senior brother gave me the Sky Whale!

Zhang Ming turned to Chen Ming with an expectant look. He, in turn, watched Li Suyi. This kid knows that strong beasts will make you reliant on them, slowing your growth. For others, such power was a great help, but for Li Suyi, it was a burden on his Dao Heart.

Chen Ming nodded, “This is how a senior brother behaves, watching over his juniors. Zhang Ming, go, it is yours. Take a thousand disciples and subdue the Sky Whale.”

Zhang Ming cupped his hands, “Thank you, Master, thank you, third senior brother. Disciple will take it and capture more Sky Whales for my juniors.”

“Go ahead.”

Yan Mountain was still peaceful and happy!

Chen Ming smiled, “Suyi, want to learn Master’s sword?”

Li Suyi nodded on the spot, “Master, I do!”

He saw it combined hardship cultivation and spiritual cultivation into one attack. It was a perfect match for him.

Chen Ming nodded, “I will teach you when we get back.”

Other disciples saw this, “Third senior brother makes us do saber practice.”

“Master also tricks us into learning arrays.”

“Head senior sister tricks us into going to spar with her.”

“Fourth senior sister also tricks us into going for acupuncture treatment.”

“Second senior brother’s daily deceptions get us as his punching bags!”

“Fifth senior brother, hold on, fifth senior brother never forced us with any practice!”

“Immortal beasts are more reasonable!”

With a great increase in power came a steep drop in merits. This ended up turning these broken toys into rearing immortal beasts. How could I let that happen?

This is malpractice, neglecting my poor chives’ growth!

“When we get back, all of you are to do saber practice!” Chen Ming’s cold tone woke them.

“If you don’t break through to the Immortal realm in ten years, don’t even think of calling me Master.”

They were all ashen, but then one disciple said, “We can’t call him Master, but we’re still Master-disciple. It’s doesn’t seem that much of a difference!”

“You’re right!”

“Look, we need to raise immortal beasts more than ever. Look how great they were when Master passed his tribulation. At least they could carry the city blocks made of spiritual metal!”

Chen Ming: …

If I’m not a bit harsh, this bunch of broken toys shall never see reason.

Chen Ming said calmly, “Your head senior sister is crushed when she recalls there are disciples with low cultivation.”

A dozen or so disciple had their legs turn into jelly, collapsing.

Chen Ming pressed on, “Qingyao cares deeply for her Master’s reputation, believing any who has low cultivation is a loss of respect to me. Now that I recall, you’re the only ones with low cultivation head senior sister visits each day to teach.”

More than a hundred hit the ground with a thud.

Chen Ming grinned, “It’s nothing awful really. Isn’t it just a spar with head senior sister? Just look at your two senior brothers, aren’t they leading a cheerful life as before?”

Three thousand disciples touched the ground, falling from their mounts.

What living? You mean they died once already? They are second and third seniors we’re talking about here! Even they end up crying for their mommy! Their wails of agony went on for miles, not stopping be it day or night. Wouldn’t this crush their poor little frail limbs?

“Master, we were wrong! We know our crimes. We will work harder than ever on cultivation!”

“Not just the saber, we will learn even the sword!”

“From this moment, any who doesn’t work hard will be despised! Any who doesn’t cultivate is no junior of mine!”
