Daily life of a teacher in the martial arts department

"If you were to choose a general as your life partner in Time and Space Kill, who would you choose?"

Jiu Yi's gaze swept around, finally settling on Feng Yunke, and he smiled, "Uncle, you're more mature, so answer first."

"Hmm..." Feng Yunke crossed his arms, pondered for a moment, and said, "That... is probably Qingcheng. Legend has it that she was an unparalleled beauty. Of course, this can no longer be verified, and it is not important to me. I admire her very much. She would cover her face with her fluttering sleeves while dancing, and it takes great courage and perseverance to disfigure herself rather than serve a foreign race... She is truly remarkable."

This was a fairly standard answer. Jiu Yi nodded and glanced around, landing on Nocturne.

Nocturne tapped the end of her folding fan with her finger and said with a smile, "As for women..."

Shen Xin glanced at her, while Ying Qin Guan, who pretended not to care, perked up his ears.

"I'll probably choose the goddess."

Such questions usually involve choosing a person of the opposite sex. But Nocturne's answer to the goddess... while surprising, it also felt like it was indeed Nocturne. Even Ying Qin Guan himself thought it was normal. If Nocturne had actually mentioned a person's name—male or female—as long as that person actually existed, perhaps she wouldn't be Nocturne.

"To be honest, I had already guessed it beforehand," Jiu Yi said. "By the way, didn't you think the goddess was inferior to you? Why did you still choose her?"

"The richest man doesn't care whether the other person is rich or not when he looks for a partner; the nameless swordsman of Southern Qin doesn't care whether the other person is strong or not when he looks for a partner."

Nocturne smiled slightly and nodded to Jiu Yi.

The arrogant Jiu Yi was dumbfounded, amazed, and speechless for a long time.

Next... Gan Xingyao.

When everyone looked at her, she nervously smoothed her hair and then whispered, "Um... Ji Li, the character I created, is my ideal type. Except for being a bit of a womanizer, but he doesn't exist. The only one who exists is the Nameless Swordsman of Southern Qin. So... let's go with the Nameless Swordsman of Southern Qin. I really want to know what kind of person he is."

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a deep voice ring out in her ear.

It was Ying Qin Guan. He interlaced his fingers, his expression profound, and said in a deep voice, "Just a passerby, to be fair, I think the Ji Li you wrote is just like the real person. The nameless swordsman of Southern Qin is just like him. But don't get too caught up in the drama. A handsome man like the nameless swordsman of Southern Qin cannot belong to anyone."

Jiu Yi turned his head away expressionlessly, refusing to look at Ying Qin Pass.

Shen Xin trembled as she reached out her hand, trying to squeeze out some words from her throat. But she really couldn't speak, and immediately began to cough violently, her little face turning red.

Gan Xingyao didn't know why Ying Qin Guan was suddenly saying all this to her. She hesitated, then nodded and said, "Thank you..."

Ying Qin Guan nodded in satisfaction.

Jiu Yi stared at Ying Qin Guan with the same expression as Mu Nan Dong. The other man showed no remorse, crossed his arms, and said smugly, "Who do I like? Ugh, that's such a troublesome question..."

He spoke in the tone of an emperor choosing his concubines, which made Shen Xin indignant, so she quietly picked up the small blackboard.

"Don't even think about it, it's pointless to choose anyone!"

However, Ying Qin Pass was not like Yu Xie Tian, ​​and Shen Xin dared not confront Ying Qin Pass head-on. He only raised it for a moment, then immediately cleared the words from it, not daring to let Ying Qin Pass see them.

After thinking it over, Ying Qin Guan thought the goddess was good, and Qingcheng was alright, but if he had to say who he felt was the best match for him, it would be this one.

"I think... Marquis Mingxuan is more suitable."

One of only two alchemists in history to be deified, and one of only two women to be deified with a clearly defined gender, Mingxuan Hou was also one of the most famous beauties of ancient times. She was aloof and disliked interacting with others. Legend has it that she joined forces with the third magician to be deified (besides the Ring of Truth and the Demon of Burning), attempting to unlock the secrets of life and death and attain immortality... Ultimately, these two were buried by history, and their story, like "fear," became an eternal mystery.

The reason Ying Qin Guan chose her was because she was, or rather, she was known as, the most talented woman in history.

【God? Marquis of Mingxuan】

Era: Ancient

Stamina: 4

[Investiture of the Gods]: Omitted.

【Alchemy Revolution】: Once per turn, you may discard one card to upgrade a weapon or armor card on the field. If the equipment does not belong to you, you draw two cards. If the two drawn cards are of the same color, refresh the number of uses of this skill.

(Ma Jun's armor, Pu Yuan's weapon)

[Prodigy]: After you use/lose an equipment card, draw two cards. Each player can draw a maximum of four cards in this way per turn.

[The Secret to Immortality]: When a character enters a dying state, you can discard one of your equipment cards, which is considered as the character using one Peach. If you discard an upgraded piece of equipment, it is considered as the character using two Peaches.

Humanity's pursuit of two things will never cease: the starry sky and immortality.

"Marquis Mingxuan..." Ye Qu laughed, "A genius of unparalleled talent, with ingenuity, she single-handedly sparked the Second Alchemy Revolution. Twenty years after her, humanity, relying on the fruits of the Alchemy Revolution, completely defeated most of the magical beasts and alien races on land and in the sky, becoming the undisputed absolute rulers of the continent. Teacher Ying and she, one a scholar and the other a warrior, are quite a good match."

Jiu Yi's eyes widened, thinking that Jill was a perfect match for him. Nocturne, you'd better have a conscience when you say that!

However, Ying Qin Guan nodded in satisfaction, and Jiu Yi, not wanting to be foolish enough to be subjected to the Consciousness Slash, dared not utter a sound.

Shen Xin's heart skipped a beat, but Ying Qin's face was instantly killed. At this moment, he became obedient and didn't say anything at all.

Ultimately, the problem came to the heart of God.

Chapter Nineteen: I'm Still a Child

"What kind of person does the master like... anyway, let's rule out the nameless swordsman from Southern Qin for now."

Shenxin raised the small blackboard.

Gan Xingyao mistakenly thought that Shen Xin's words were directed at her, and asked in confusion, "Ah...why? Isn't the nameless swordsman of Southern Qin good?"

"That's right!" Ying Qin Guan exclaimed loudly, "Isn't it good!"

"...Shiba."

After a wave of foreign languages ​​that illiterate people couldn't understand, Shenxin cleared the words on the page, thought for a moment, and wrote down new ones.

"I don't really have any favorites, and I don't even know what I like. I'm still a child, and these questions are too far removed from my life."

The reason that she was still a child was too strong. Ying Qin Guan didn't know how old this little pudding was. Judging from her height, you could barely call her a primary school student, but you could also call her a college student.

So, if we calculate it this way... in this game, 'children' seem to be a stronger buff than 'virgins with no emotional experience'.

However, this answer did not satisfy Ying Qin Guan. He shouted, "Are you a sore loser? What do you mean 'a child'? What kind of child would put a lethal dose of laxatives in their boss's breakfast? Don't try to get away with this!"

God's heart was finally enraged!

Ying Qin Guan has provoked her again and again today. The previous times, she had swallowed her anger and pretended nothing had happened because of his strength. Now he is directly attacking her!

She couldn't take it anymore! With a flick of her little hand, she started writing frantically on the blackboard.

Like a divine intervention from heaven, she's truly a keyboard warrior on earth.

"What nonsense are you talking about? So what if you're a kid? To put it bluntly, games like Truth or Dare are just clinging to that stupid thing about relationships. I can tell at a glance that you're a deadbeat virgin with no girlfriends, so you're practically invincible in these kinds of games. And now you're trying to argue with a kid like me? Ying Qin Guan..."

"You! Are! Not! Human!!"

"What?!" Ying Qin Guan was no ordinary man; he would argue his case regardless of right or wrong. Besides, it wasn't necessarily that he was wrong, but he hadn't grasped the key point. He was completely bewildered by Shen Xin's comment, "A deadbeat virgin without even half a girlfriend," and immediately widened his eyes, exclaiming, "How can you slander someone's innocence like that?!"

"What innocence?! You, who spends every day at the board game store playing cards with the dean, what innocence do you have?!"

Ying Qin Guan's face flushed red, veins bulging on his forehead, as he argued, "What do you know... How can card players all be virgins..."

Then came the easy-to-understand phrases, like "Is it wrong to keep oneself pure?" "Do you think I can't find one? I just don't want to." "You little pudding, what do you know?" "If I wanted to...!"

This series of weak, stubborn remarks, which clearly indicated he was a virgin, drew laughter from everyone, filling the living room with a joyful atmosphere.

But Ying Qin Guan is Ying Qin Guan after all. He raised his eyes and slashed with his sword. Shen Xin's body stiffened, and she fell backward onto the sofa. However, she seemed to have anticipated Ying Qin Guan's anger and had written words on the blackboard in advance. As she fell, the words on the blackboard were revealed.

"When one divine heart falls, thousands more will rise; truth will not be swallowed up by brute force!"

Ying Qin Guan snatched the small blackboard from Shen Xin.

"You talk too much!"

-

"Where exactly is it, Snow Fox..."

Yu Xietian looked around, his expression somewhat tired.

He wasn't physically tired, but he was mentally exhausted. A task where all your efforts don't increase the progress bar is very easy to make you doubt yourself, like chasing a riddle teller or buying lottery tickets.

At least chasing people and winning the lottery gives you something to look forward to, but a snow fox is a little lacking in that sense.

“I knew that this thing was already quite rare,” Mu Nandong said coldly, “but I didn’t expect it to be this rare. There’s not even a trace of it yet.”

"Ah..." Yu Xietian sighed, speechless.

Mu Nandong walked forward, but then suddenly stopped.

Yu Xietian's spirits lifted, thinking that he might have seen the Snow Fox. He immediately infused his feet with internal energy and walked forward without making a sound. But what appeared before him was not the Snow Fox, but Chu Hui and Qiu Fei, a couple who seemed to be a couple.

They were skiing... at incredible speed, cutting through layers of snow and heading into the distance.

"Are we overthinking this?" Yu Xietian raised his chin and pointed in the direction the two had gone. "They were just skiing, not doing anything weird like planting bombs... Wow, they're going so fast and so far away. Aren't they afraid of getting lost?"

As Yu Xietian spoke, the two of them went some distance away, becoming quite far from them.

It's extremely easy to get lost on this snowy mountain. It's directly connected to the Saint-Lian-Alias ​​mountain range, and if you go the wrong way, it could really be fatal. Spending the night in the snow could be deadly. Although this is the outer area and the temperature isn't very low, it's still quite dangerous.

If it weren't for the locator, people like Yu Xietian and Mu Nandong would probably have gotten lost for a while. But considering that Shenxin is there, as long as it gets dark and Shenxin finds that they haven't returned, he will naturally use some appropriate magic to guide them.

Mu Nandong watched their departing figures, his eyes slightly narrowed.

If Ying Qin Guan were here, he might be able to discern something. Ying Qin Guan is a true master, possessing terrifying eyesight, capable of completely analyzing every subtle movement of the human body. If he were here, even from a great distance, he could clearly see all of Chu Hui and Qiu Fei's movements if he so desired. With his abilities, he could easily deduce that Chu Hui and Qiu Fei were skiing...

"It's been running continuously."

Skiing is not a sport that requires multiple consecutive actions, just like driving; you can't just jerk the steering wheel on the highway.

And these two people... were frantically turning the steering wheel on the highway.

They were like someone who knew absolutely nothing about driving getting on the highway, only knowing the steering wheel's function. Logically, they should have been doomed, but their dynamic vision and reaction speed were exceptional, almost like bullet time. So they frantically maneuvered, wildly turning the steering wheel, and miraculously, they managed to turn the situation around and survive.

If Ying Qin Pass were here, they could tell, but this wasn't Ying Qin Pass. Mu Nandong's eyesight wasn't good enough, so he couldn't see anything at all. Yu Xietian could only see a general outline, and it wasn't very clear either. Although he felt that the two people's movements were a bit too exaggerated, he didn't think too much about it.

"Skiing... well, it's less like skiing and more like searching for something, but at this speed, what could you possibly be looking for?"

As he spoke, he seemed to suddenly realize something, narrowing his eyes slightly, and said, "I see..."

"Yu Xietian, listen to me. Tonight you go find Jiu Yi and Ying Qin Guan, and tomorrow..."

Chapter Twenty: The One-Armed Blacksmith

"I really don't know why Po Xiezi would live in a place like this."

Hiyomaru and Kamiku walked through a dilapidated village. They had been in the Holy Alliance for many days, searching for news of Po Xiezi, the sword-making master of the Southern Qin remnants. After many days of travel, they finally arrived at this place, the secluded residence of Po Xiezi.

Even here, there are things you can't avoid.

Shenzhou-9 still spoke haltingly.

Hisumura Danzao understood what she meant and chuckled, "Yes, he's just a blacksmith with some martial arts skills. No matter how well he hides, he can't escape someone who wants to find him... So perhaps he chose to live here just to pursue that brief peace."
