Chapter 13

"Page thirty, sixth diagram?" The commoner student murmured. After being guided, he found the Lightning Fire inscription pattern.

"Ya!"

Nei Li walked down and stood in front of the Board, he immediately started to draw patterns on the board.

Shen Xiu wanted to say something sarcastic but she refrained until he was done.

"You have the books, in hand right? " Nei li asked without turning back and continuously drawing.

"Yeah"

"Now, See here " Nei li side stepped, as he allowed everyone to see the board " I have taken these two pattern here and broke it into four, like described into the Lu Qigong Book of Heavenly Burst. Doing that, will cause instability in the pattern itself, crippling it. In order to remedy that, I took the 22 Patterns in Mighty Scarlett Flames, The first four will stabilize the previous content, containing it. The next ten will form structure to pattern a outburst, the other eight to...."

The crowd of students let out a sound of surprise. Nei Li continued his lecture, although most cannot tell if what he is saying is wrong or right. Everyone in the room cannot deny the undisputed fact that Nei Li grasp of inscription is impeccable.

'My mission is successful, now I can only hope they can grant me a simple position and I will be happy' Nei li desire only a simple backing so, that no one will disturb him just cause they have nothing better to do. He doesn't want to be hailed as the greatest genius in the Glory City, That will paint a big target on his back.

"None of this prove your theory, unless you make it work! " Shen Xiu coldly stated

Nei Li " Maybe it doesn't, we will only know when someone actually tries it. But I think I pass "

Shen xiu frown at him, " Your theory is just scribble on the board, you have proven nothing! "

" Neither do I need to. Either I am right or wrong, that is for someone proficient in the practical field to decide but we have nothing to do with that. I am a simple student who was asked if I understand what you taught in class and I proved that I do! "

Then it dawned on everyone that Nei Li was actually just showing that he understand the class and proving his knowledge but why did he say that Scarlet sunburst inscription pattern has 38 patterns, someone so proficient in Inscription pattern shouldn't make such a minor mistake. Then, It would mean only one thing that Shen Xiu teaching was wrong!

" Audacious! How dare you slander me. I will have you expelled to question the teaching of a Nobel born !" Shen xiu was beyond herself as she howled at the top of her lungs.

Nei Li showed no fear to her wrath "I never said you are wrong! "

"Ew" Now everyone was thoroughly confused. Even Shen Xiu had a weird look on her face.

" Your knowledge is not wrong, It is just very basic! The mistake of considering Scarlet sunburst inscription pattern as only 36 patterns is what everyone at beginners level will make, and this will only be remedied when one up their game and study further in the arts. I think the higher ups, set it up like this because they wanted the student to understand the difference themselves and be interested in the arts but sadly people are very reluctant to study Inscription pattern. Teacher Shen Xiu, I know you are doing this for our own good. Most definitely you would have given us the assignment to figure it out ourselves."

After Nei Li was done talking, everyone looked at Shen xiu to see if he was right. Shen Xiu had a weird look on her face, as she understood that Nei Li is giving her a chance to maintain face. Although she felt anger for this farce, She understood that maybe she is wrong and that her wrath will only destroy the reputation of Sacred family in the important guests eyes.

From the sideline, Xiao Ning'er, hearing how Nie Li uses his wit to outmaneuver She Xiu, she couldn't help but to feel happy. She also felt depressed when Nei Li showed her face in the end.

Nevertheless how profound must one's knowledge need to be in order to improve a inscription pattern. So while these people are busy wasting their time, Nie Li has been reading books all along.

At this moment outside the classroom, Lu Ye hastily ran towards the grey robed elder and the vice principal's direction and passed the Books to the grey elder

Vice-Principal Ye Sheng repeatedly directed his attention to the grey robed elder's expression.

The grey robed elder flipped the Books, matching the patterns with the drawing Nei Li made on the board along with what he explained. He didn't bother with Book of Divine Lightning Fire because Nei Li said his patterns will rival it's strength. This is the main point that all pushed at the back of their heads, since Book of Divine Lightning Fire is merely a reference to compare strength, many will not look into it instead of the other actual books.

Ye Sheng dared not speak. He has also heard this kid explain the theory, it's mind blowing! At this point it doesn't matter if it's wrong, Nei li worth has already increased in their eyes.

Grey robed elder looked at the Books. The words on it are very complex, even he only recognizes small part of the words. Nie Li actually had such profound knowledge, causing him to be astonished. He remained silent for a moment before saying ,"This student, how is the innate talent 0f Nie Li?"

Ye Sheng looked at Lu Ye. Regarding such nameless student, the Vice-Principal wouldn't know much about the student.

Lu Ye hastily reply "I just looked him, he only has a red soul realm."

Grey robed elder nodded his head "Such a pity, this child is so well educated. A pity that his innate talent is only this much, otherwise his future would be promising. Lu Sheng, arrange for him a library clerk position!"

"Yes!" Lu Sheng hastily nodded his head, he knew of grey robed elder's love for talented individuals. Although Nie Li's innate talent is poor, he is knowledgeable and could even read many difficult books. Only reading and actually formulating theory are totally different things, one can only guess about the depth of his knowledge.

By becoming a library clerk, he could also research and study more books like these. Everyone in Glory City has their priority on training their cultivation. Very few would research and study these kind of ancient books.

"This kid is very talented in academic aspect and his general and political knowledge is also very good. For a 13 year old kid, His handling of the situation is amazing. At this point, if Shen Xiu doesn't resonate with him, She would become the Villan and Nie li the victim and the Sacred Family reputation will be dragged through the mud." The Vice principal thought.

After that, Shen Xiu didn't have the mood to continue the lecture, and hastily ended the lesson.

The things that happened in the lesson spread quickly among the students, passing from one to another.

Shen Xiu's didn't bother to pay any visit to Vice principal office, there was simply no need to. Although she is arrogant and lofty without end, She knows that Blowing things out of proportion will yield no results. Nei li could be considered a genius now and the elders will surely protect him.

With Nie Li's profound knowledge, even if he couldn't become a powerful demon spiritist in the future, he could still become an important individual of some powerful demon spiritist.

The sacred family were not being slander or badmouth either so, she just ignored him, but she is sure to make him embarrassed in the classroom if she can.
