Continued Story ch. 4 Flower Wine Monk's Inheritance

Soon it was a week since the awakening ceremony.

The academy building…

<Humans are above all creatures, Gu is the essence of heaven and earth. In this world there are thousands of variants, and countless Gu. They live all around us. In the soil, in the bushes, even on the bodies of wild beasts. >

<As humans continued to spread and grow, scholars of the past gradually discovered the secrets of Gu. Those who awakened the aperture, using their own primeval essence to feed, refine and manipulate those Gu, who achieved these various purposes are what we call Gu Masters.

<You all successfully awakened the aperture in the Awakening Ceremony 7 days ago. With the appearance of the Primordial Sea, now you are all rank 1 Gu Masters >

The academy elder spoke confidently, in awe, without interruption. In front of him were about 50 students, sitting and listening attentively. The secrets and strength of the Gu Masters had been deeply rooted in the hearts of the young people from a long time ago and they were excited and eager for what the academy elder had to say. Thus everything the sheikh taught and said, the students were very interested in.

At this moment, Qing Shu raised his hand. He stood up with the permission of the elder and asked: [I heard since I was young that there is a rank one Gu Master class, rank two, etc., can you explain to us in more detail?]

The teacher nodded and waved his hand to ask Qing Shu to sit down. <Gu Masters have 9 ranks, from bottom to top; First rank, second rank, third rank along to ninth rank. Each rank is considered a large realm, and is divided into 4 small realms; Initial stage, middle stage, upper stage, peak stage. You have all become Gu Masters only recently, so you are all occupying the initial stage. >

<If you are all going to work hard in your cultivation, your cultivation bases will naturally advance to rank two, even rank three. Of course, the higher your talent, the higher your chance for promotion.>

<For D grade talents, the primeval sea occupies about 2-3 layers of aperture, the highest rank that can be reached is the second rank initial stage.>

<For C grade talents, the primeval sea is 4 to 5 layers of aperture. Progression usually stops at rank 2, but with luck, a small percentage of people can advance to rank 3 initial stage. >

<B-grade talents possess a primordial sea of ​​6-7 layers aperture, and are able to grow to rank 3, sometimes even reaching rank 4. As for A-grade talents, the Primordial Sea is great. It occupies about 8-9 layers of aperture. This kind of talent a person has is naturally the most talented and most suitable for clan leadership, as it can reach rank 5 Gu Master. >

< As for Gu Masters who have reached rank 6 and above, they are all legends. I'm not a scientist about all the details. In the Gu Yue clan, there was no appearance of rank 6 Gu Masters, but rank 4 and rank 5 Gu Masters we had before. >

The teens' ears absorbed everything, their eyes shining with pride as they listened.

Many of them couldn't help but look at Gu Yue Qing Shu who was sitting in the first row. He was an A grade talent after all. Their eyes were filled with feelings of envy and jealousy. At the same time, there were some staring at the muscular, red-haired young man, who was sitting in the second row.

Qing Shu was a little interested in the lessons, he was even asking if he knew the answer from the main story in order to learn quickly and he had already shown an improvement in his control of the primeval essence and could now move it as he wanted. But the lack of something interesting disappointed him.

He was listening to his classmates' gossip but didn't care about it as it was all pointless criticism of Chi Shan and other things.

He was planning to go out tonight and get the liquor worm. During the past week, he collected many green bamboo wines.

During this week the clan chief offered him to become his adopted son, and Qing Shu tactfully accepted it anyway. He didn't want to become under too intense a watch, so he asked Gu Yue Bo to provide him with support and protection until he entered the second rank.

Xu not only accepted the adoption application but also became Gu Yue Bo's disciple. This is for several reasons.

First, to secure his safety, secondly because of material support in terms of primeval stones, thirdly because of hidden information that did not appear in the main story, and finally because of a position that would later benefit him in his last days at Qing Mao Mountain.

The elder completed his response to the last question <In the history of the clan, there have been many powerful masters. Of the rank five Gu Masters, there were two. One of them is the first clan chief, our ancestor. He was the person who founded the Gu Yue Village. The other was the fourth clan chief. He had a superb talent, and he managed to cultivate all the way to the rank five Gu Master realm. If it wasn't for the sinister, shameful sneak attack of the Flower Wine Monk, he might be able to achieve rank six, but who knows. >

As he said this he sighed deeply. Below the podium, the youths started shouting in anger.

<It was all because of the Flower Wine Monk, he was so vicious and cunning!>

< What we regret is that our fourth clan leader was kind-hearted and benevolent, and died at a young age.

If you were born a few hundred years ago! If I saw that devil, I would have torn off his ugly face. >

The fourth clan chief and the story of the Flower Wine Monk was something the entire Gu Yue clan knew.

The Flower Wine Monk was also a rank five Gu Master, famous from the demonic path in his time for many years as a great thief. A few hundred years ago he traveled to Qing Mao Mountain. He tried to commit crimes in Gu Yue Village but was eventually discovered by the fourth generation clan leader.

After an amazing huge battle, the Flower Wine Monk was beaten to the point where he had to beg on his knees. The fourth clan leader was merciful and gentle, and he intended to spare his life. However, the Flower Wine Monk suddenly launched a sneak attack, seriously injuring the fourth leader. The Clan Chief was enraged, killing the Flower Wine Monk on the spot. However, the Fourth Leader's severe injuries were not curable and thus he died.

So in the hearts of Gu Yue tribesmen, the fourth generation clan chief was a great hero who sacrificed his life for the sake of the village.

[Flower Wine Monk, huh...] He knew that story was nothing but a big lie hatched by the clan, so he didn't pay much attention to details. But he thought of something else [According to the main story Fang Yuan attracted the Liquor worm by the heavy smell of wine. No longer being chased by her discovered the entrance to the Inheritance Cave. If I can find the Liquor worm and refine it into my vital Gu, it will be much better than the clan's Moonlight Gu.]

Qing Shu felt it was time so he sighed as he stared out the window.

Under the blue sky and white clouds, green mountains stretched in the distance. In the vicinity was a bamboo grove. This was the unique spear bamboo of Qing Mao Mountain, each bamboo stick was straight as a line, the ends of the bamboo were exceptionally sharp like the tip of a spear.

Not too far away, the forest was already green. Tender buds spread out in a sea of ​​yellow-green. Every now and then, beautiful sparrows and colorful birds perch on the branches. Spring winds blow, sealing the freshness of the mountains and rivers, and scattering the world.

Without knowing it, the class is almost over. The academy elder told them, <This week, I taught you all how to think about and verify the Primordial Sea of ​​your Voids, and how to meditate about the primeval essence within your bodies. Now is the time for all of you to improve your vital strengths. Now, you will all go to the Gu room of the academy and pick a Gu worm. After choosing a Gu, please go home and focus on refining it. When you finally refine your Gu, you can go back to the academy and continue attending the class. At the same time, this is your first evaluation. Whoever can finish this assessment first will be rewarded with 20 primeval stones. >

Qing Shu smiled and said to himself [Let's start the party...].
