Daily life of a teacher in the martial arts department

".."

Yu Xietian's expression twisted.

That's...that damn pig.

The three-year period has come to an end, and what we welcome back is not the Elvis, but the Pig King!

Even if you were Elvis, it wouldn't help if you were this fat!

And it's already so fat! Why are you still hanging it up like that?! Aren't you afraid it'll crush you to death?!

That's so tasteless! If it were me, even if I were to hang a sycophant on someone, at least he should at least look like a human being. To put it another way, you're hanging someone who's 1.5 meters tall and weighs 150 kilograms with the same torso as him... I may not be a cat, but you're definitely a dog.

Yu Xietian exhaled a breath of stale air, feeling that he really couldn't hold on any longer.

What kind of person can stand in the confessional room without complaining and resist the urge to rush out and punch the other person in the head?

He didn't know, anyway, that person wasn't him.

"Regarding this... the goddess has already forgiven you." Yu Xietian said in a heavy voice, "Moreover, the goddess is currently running a promotion, buy one get one free. When you go back, you will be surprised to find that the cat will no longer bother you."

"Really?" Yu Xietian's words made the man somewhat insecure. After all, these days, praying to gods and Buddhas is just for peace of mind, but Yu Xietian's sudden remark made it seem as if the goddess could really influence the world.

“Really.” Yu Xietian interlaced his fingers and placed them on the table, saying meaningfully, “The goddess has already wielded her sword of wisdom, severing all roots of affection.”

"...Love's roots?"

"You misheard me, I meant 'love threads'."

Chapter Nine: Do you even understand what "value" means?

"You dare call yourself a martial artist like this...?"

"Even a child knows you shouldn't eat things given to you by strangers, are you an idiot...?"

Inside the hospital, Yu Xie lay listlessly on the hospital bed, while Shen Xin mocked him while frantically eating the fruit sent by his clients with whom he had a good relationship.

The Yorozuya's completion rate for its requests isn't actually high, but they take on all sorts of tasks that ordinary people wouldn't know how to handle. The key figure in these tasks isn't the top-tier martial artist Yu Xietian, but Shen Xin, who is skilled in almost everything and calls herself "Serenade." Therefore, clients usually leave their business cards; later, with the establishment of the magic network and the widespread use of telephones, they switched to leaving their phone numbers.

—After Yu Xietian was admitted to the hospital, Shenxin spread the word, and soon people sent him gifts.

Yes, Yu Xietian has been admitted to the hospital.

After finishing his work at the Confession Room, Yu Xietian returned to the Everything Shop, growing angrier and angrier. He felt like he had stumbled upon every idiot and clown in the world. Overwhelmed by rage, and with the lingering effects of the God-Slaying Mooncake, he actually ended up in the hospital.

Despite being mocked by Shenxin for being weak and careless, eating things given to her by others, Yu Xietian felt that she had probably fallen ill from anger, and the mooncake was just a trigger.

"Shinshin, do you think there really are people in this world who can talk to cats?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? Even I can't talk to a cat."

Yu Xietian sighed and said, "That's true..."

Before he could even relax a little, a cat meowed beside him.

"Meow--"

Yu Xietian suddenly turned his head and saw a calico cat perched on the window; it was the cat that had been meowing just now.

【"Um.."】

Shenxin nodded to the cat, then turned to look at Yu Xietian and held up the small blackboard.

[“Little Meow also said that it had never met anyone who could talk to it before, so the ability to speak animal language doesn’t exist.”]

Lies!

So what are you doing now?

Yu Xietian opened his mouth, wanting to kill the traitors, but ultimately he was powerless to change the situation... He no longer had the energy to complain.

"By the way, what's with this 'Little Meow' name? Who did you name this cat?"

"No, it told me that."

"Okay, I understand. You named it."

【“!”】

"I hate cats..." Yu Xietian sighed deeply, adding a new attribute to himself.

Just as he was about to get some rest, he heard a conversation outside.

"Hey, did you hear?"

"Ah, there was a martial artist who, while working as a priest, ate something that someone gave him and ended up in the hospital."

"That's absolutely ridiculous—"

"Yes, yes, each generation is worse than the last. Back when I was a special forces soldier, someone ambushed me with a sword and stabbed me in the chest, just 0.01 centimeters from my heart. I didn't even flinch, I just punched him so hard he blew my hair out. I didn't even cry out in pain, not even a change in expression. Unlike people these days..."

"Yes, yes, even a three-year-old knows you shouldn't eat things given to you by strangers!"

"Shh, let's keep our voices down. If they hear us, even though this guy is a total jerk, we're still visiting a patient. Let's not make things worse."

"I! Heard! Everything!"

Yu Xietian, on the verge of death, suddenly sat up and unleashed another wave of attacks.

Ying Qin, Guan Naifei, Tian Jiuyi, and two others walked in carrying fruit, laughing and joking.

It's hard not to laugh.

Yu Xie Tian Tang, a top-tier martial artist ranked among the top 100 in the world, somehow ended up eating food given to him by others while working part-time, and ended up in the hospital.

It's important to understand that martial artists are not just about physical strength. If they practice proper cultivation methods, their bodies can quickly eliminate and even digest various toxins. Someone like Ying Qin Guan, even if he ate aphrodisiacs like food, would never have the kind of romantic encounters described in ordinary martial arts novels.

This powerful physique, combined with the proper cultivation methods, can help them resist various infectious diseases, viruses, and even radiation. Martial artists have always been the epitome of immunity to all poisons, but now, there's actually a guy...

Yu Xietian's face was ashen, and he could no longer utter a single word.

Shenxin, standing to one side, raised the small blackboard.

"Honestly, you're already here, why bring a gift? It's too formal."

At the same time, she leaped up, swept past like a whirlwind, and snatched the gift boxes from the three people's hands.

"How did the three of you end up together?"

Shenxin didn't hold back and tore open the gift box right in front of the three of them. At the same time, she picked up the small blackboard and chatted with them for a few words—because Yu Xietian, who was supposed to be chatting with them, was already in a state of lying down and waiting to die.

"We just happened to run into each other on the road," Jiu Yi said dismissively, then revealed an exaggerated expression. "No way, you're really in the hospital? The last time I was hospitalized was during my graduation exam at the Royal Academy, when I was facing a major crisis with the Nephalem!"

His words were partly sarcastic and partly boastful. When he and Yu Xietian graduated, the Imperial Academy, and even the entire Seven Luminaries, faced a major crisis. In the end, it was thanks to the joint efforts of this golden duo that the crisis was resolved. Later, the even more capable Nephalem disappeared and became a special agent, while Jiu Yi officially began his career and became the Dean of the Imperial Academy in just a few years.

That was the most legendary event in Jiu Yi's life, and it was the thing he could boast about the most besides his position as the Dean of the Imperial Academy.

However... if you brag about this to certain people, it's just a way to get the ball rolling.

“Yes, yes.” Nephalem crossed his arms and said calmly, “The last time I was hospitalized, it seems that two countries were about to start a war, and I went alone to stop that war. I stayed in the hospital for a while after I came back. As for the Royal Academy incident, heh, there’s nothing to mention.”

Damn it! He managed to set it up!

Jiu Yi secretly realized his mistake. He had forgotten that there was a Nephalem next to him. This guy was extremely competitive. They had agreed to mock Yu Xietian together, but he actually used him as a stepping stone!

but..

Ying Qin Guan scratched the back of his head with an honest expression. "Hospitalization? What hospitalization? Are you all going to be hospitalized? I saved the world last time and I wasn't hospitalized. I'm not thinking about you guys saving the world, so why are you all going to be hospitalized?"

—It was a dimensional reduction attack, directly silencing all three except for Shenxin.

Speaking of this, I, Ying Qin Guan, am no longer sleepy!

Do you want Duck Bro to tell you about his world-saving feat over a year ago?

Do you even understand what 1,300+ Jue Tian Army soldiers mean? That's real value!

Nephalem and Jiu exchanged a glance, even though they hadn't partnered up for many years. But the tacit understanding from the past remained, and they both looked at Yu Xietian.

Although everyone is a stepping stone, there are different levels of stepping stones!

"That's enough..." Yu Xietian couldn't help but speak up, sighing, "Did you all come here specifically to laugh at me?"

"Huh? We didn't come to laugh at you, did we come here specifically to see you?"

"Hold.."

Chapter Ten: One Battle Destroys the Black Dragon Masters, If I'm Invincible, Who Is?

The four, including Shen Xin, were particularly curious about what Yu Xietian had eaten. However, Yu Xietian found it too embarrassing to talk about being drugged and hospitalized after eating a mooncake. So he insisted that he was angered by a stupid customer and that it had nothing to do with what he ate.

—To be honest, even he himself didn't believe it. When he took a bite of that mooncake, he felt like he was ascending to heaven. If the person who delivered the mooncake dared to come back and say there was nothing wrong with it, Yu Xietian would definitely teach her what cruelty was.

After the three of them finished watching (mocking) Yu Xietian, they were about to leave when Ying Qin Guan said, "I heard that the boss is still in the hospital."

"Is he still not better?" Jiu Yi asked, somewhat surprised. "Is this money power no longer working or what?"

"On the contrary, it seems to be too effective." Ying Qin Guan said, "I heard that not long ago he ran out wearing a hospital gown for some reason, apparently to solve some problems for his cat. Although he felt fine, many people still made him stay in the hospital... Ah He told me all of this."

"Since we're already here... let's go see the boss. I'm sure I contributed to his hospital expenses!"

"Should we go buy some gifts...?"

"What are you talking about? As for gifts, aren't there plenty here?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Xin immediately became alert, but before she could write anything to criticize the three men's bandit behavior, Ying Qin Guan snatched her blackboard with lightning speed.

The Nephalem asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

"Ignore her. I'm allowed to insult her but she's not allowed to insult me. That's my way of the ninja... I mean, this little blackboard is tiring to carry, so I'll help her carry it for a bit."

The three of them took some of the fruit and left Yu Xietian's hospital room.

Yu Xietian lay on the hospital bed pretending to be dead. He felt that he would be in trouble for this incident.

Shen Xin lay on the ground with tears in her eyes, as if it were after the event, but in reality, it was just that she had failed in her attempt to jump over Ying Qin Guan's face.

"Fruit gift box, my fruit gift box..."

-

With telephones, many things became much more convenient. There were also public telephones in the hospital. Ying Qin Guan and his two companions quickly found out the boss's ward from A He, knocked on the door, and went in.

Surprisingly, it was an ordinary hospital room, only a few dozen square meters in size, with a few small stools beside the bed, and the surroundings were not even filled with gifts like Yu Xietian's. Ying Qin Guan thought that a rich person like the boss would definitely stay in a luxurious suite with a bathtub bigger than Yorozuya, and would have many people sending all kinds of gifts. But it turned out to be like this.
