Chapter 257: Heaven-Grade Martial Technique (2)
Back upstairs.
Su Yu's eyes flickered with joy. A heaven-grade technique! A martial technique! That was a treasure!
Mountainsea Peace Seeking Stratagem...
After thinking about it, Su Yu pressed a button in the room. But nobody appeared. Thus, he called Bai Feng's number.
The moment the call connected, he heard Bai Feng's laughter, "Dear Little Yu, do you need anything from your teacher? Or are you calling because you're missing your teacher?"
"..."
Su Yu shivered. What was wrong with this fellow this time?
At the same time.
Liu Hong was speechless. This bastard was too disgusting.
He was resisting the urge to punch someone in the face. He had just sent this guy's student away not long ago. Now, the teacher himself was here to ask for money. If he had known about this earlier, he wouldn't have cooperated with this bastard.
But now, he had no choice but to continue with the cooperation. Whenever he thought of the large investment he had spent on this pair of teacher and student, his heart would ache. But then again, he wouldn't have earned such a big profit without them either. At that thought, he felt slightly better.
"Teacher, I have a question for you. Is that Mountainsea Peace Seeking Stratagem important? Previously, that bastard Liu Hong said that it is the reward for placing first in the Divine Character tournament..."
Nearby, Liu Hong had a bad feeling. Meanwhile, Bai Feng's face turned unsightly.
He glared at Liu Hong and gnashed his teeth as he said, "Take the first place. We'll talk more later."
He ended the call and continued glaring at Liu Hong.
"Damn it, Liu Hong! Are you asking for death?"
Liu Hong said, "How is that my fault? You were the one who sold it to the black market. Someone from the single character faction bought it. Everyone knows it's from Elder Hong's collection. Plenty of people are aware of how you have been selling your teacher's stuff. It wasn’t even my decision to use this book as a tournament reward."
Bai Feng was still gnashing his teeth in anger.
Damn it!
These bastards!
"Return the book to me! You can also choose to not return and guarantee the first place to Su Yu instead. Otherwise, I won't let this slide!"
"Bai Feng, you are being unreasonable." Liu Hong smiled bitterly, "How is Su Yu's performance in the tournament related to me? Also, you did what you did. Why are you so afraid of others finding out?"
"Piss off!"
Bai Feng cursed. That was different. Him selling it was a private affair that only a few know about. But now that the book was being used as a tournament reward, everyone would find out what he did.
Furthermore, this was basically an act of humiliation. They were deliberately doing this!
Bai Feng snorted unhappily and said, "Your single character faction is getting more and more narrow-minded. Are you not bored of doing all these stupid things?"
The book itself wasn't a precious treasure. Sure, it was made of silkwrym thread, but that thing had been written into a willpower text once. It could no longer be used as a material for a second willpower text. Thus, its value had decreased significantly.
If it wasn't for the fact that the book was related to Hong Tan, it would only be worth around 20 to 30 merit points. But with the name of Hong Tan and its status as an expired Mountainsea willpower text, its value had increased to around 100 merit points.
It wouldn't have been used as the reward for a new student tournament otherwise. Most of its worth was in its reputation, not its actual value. 100 merit points were not a cheap price, but most people also wouldn't waste their money on something like that.
Liu Hong smiled and said, "I don't know if they're bored or not, but since you're so unhappy, they had definitely not done the wrong thing. But I don't think you need to worry too much. Su Yu's Divine Character has reached the second tier. This tournament is a walk in the park for him."
"Hmph!" Bai Feng snorted, "Do you think I'm stupid? For this tournament, willpower is important as well. Is his willpower strong enough?"
"Who knows? His willpower level is low, but it's very dense and strong. With the Soul Expanding Art, he can even fight Zheng Yunhui evenly. In fact, in terms of willpower, not even Zheng Yunhui is his match. He nearly defeated Zheng Yunhui with the illusion of his second tier Divine Character..."
There was way too much information contained in those few words. Bai Feng maintained a calm expression, but inwardly, he was greatly shocked. Previously, he had assumed that the second tier Divine Character was the kill character. So he was relatively unbothered.
But what was he hearing now? Second tier...illusion? Soul Expanding Art? What? He could understand every single word Liu Hong spoke, but he couldn't quite understand the sentences formed by those words.
The blood character had advanced? Su Yu had even cultivated the Soul Expanding Art? He had nearly defeated Zheng Yunhui? Bai Feng felt like he had been in seclusion for years, not days. He did not ask Liu Hong anything. He would have to ask Su Yu about all that instead.
He looked at Liu Hong and said with disdain, "Idiot. Aren't you supposed to be suppressing my student? I thought you could do something smart, but you're only capable of some shameless schemes. With your suppression, my student is only doing better and better in the academy."
Liu Hong had no way of refuting that. After a long silence, he said, "I'm in no rush. I have discovered that he has a lot more value than you. I'm considering something. Wouldn’t it be interesting if he manages to reach the Skysoar Realm? This is probably your peak, Bai Feng. But Su Yu...is very promising. If he can reach the Skysoar Realm, he can probably keep the entire single character faction occupied all by himself. And only by suppressing him at that time would I be able to demonstrate my worth."
Bai Feng cursed inwardly. Was this bastard looking down on him?
"Cut the crap. Give me 10,000 merit points. I'm in need of money."
Liu Hong: "..."
He stared at Bai Feng for a long while. Then, he stood up and said, "I'll give myself up to Faculty Head Zhou. I have truly made a wrong choice. I shouldn't have tried raising a tiger. I'll hide myself in seclusion for a year or two. You guys can keep going at each other."
Fuck this shit. Were they addicted to blackmailing him? Bai Feng was asking for 10,000 merit points like it was nothing. Dream on!
Bai Feng wasn't worried. He smiled and said, "That was a joke! I only want 5,000 merit points. Come on, you earned 25,000..."
Liu Hong blanked out slightly. He then laughed and said, "So you thought I earned 25,000 merit points?"
"Didn't you?" Bai Feng asked doubtfully, "Isn't that the case? Su Yu told me!"
"That kid...is truly interesting. Interesting!"
He suddenly realized something. Su Yu was probably aware that he had not taken 60,000 merit points. The kid had merely pretended to think that he had taken that much.
His eyes flickered as he asked, "Su Yu took tens of thousands of merit points himself. Did he not share any with you?"
"He has only taken 20,000!" Bai Feng raised his brow, "I have naturally received my share. He gave me over 10,000 before. But I need to use the money to plug the hole in the books depository because you guys keep creating trouble for us there..."
Yes. Over 10,000 had been used for the books depository.
Su Yu still had 20,000 on him.
Liu Hong smiled, "Good. Very good."
Well done, little bastard. What an incredible liar. The little bastard had claimed that he had only gotten 5,000. The little bastard had sworn on it. Damn it! Damn that little bastard!
Liu Hong had actually believed that lie! If it wasn't for Bai Feng, he would still be completely clueless.
At that moment, Bai Feng finally realized that he had said something wrong. He blinked and said, "I was joking. We only have 20,000 in total. Zheng Yunhui took the rest."
"Scram!" Liu Hong scolded, "You guys have taken more than half of the share and you have the guts to come act poor in front of me? Get out of here!"
"That was my student's scheme. You took a share of the profit without doing anything. Are you not embarrassed of not sharing some of the wealth with me?"
"Yes, I'm not embarrassed."
Liu Hong was furious.
Why should he be embarrassed? Since Su Yu had a thick enough face to swear that he had only received 5,000 merit points, then what was there for him to be embarrassed about?
Su Yu was naturally unaware of the little argument going on between Bai Feng and Liu Hong.
At the moment, he was busy feeling excited.
Heaven-grade martial technique!
Divine Character tournament!
He hadn't cared too much about the tournament before, but now, it suddenly became very important for him.
"First place..."
He muttered. He had to think of a way to get that book even if he couldn't place first. As for how he could get it, well, it was easy.
A lot of people believed that the book wasn't too valuable. If he put on the face of a student trying to defend the dignity of his grandteacher, he would be able to get the book as long as he was willing to pay a price.
"Yes. I need to get it regardless of who places first. Middle-tier heaven-grade martial technique..."
Su Yu smiled. Finally, those creatures had given him something useful. As far as he was concerned, he could still get a lot of things from those creatures, such as blood essence, fur, martial techniques, and so on.
"But first, I need to strengthen myself."
He still felt like he was too weak. If he couldn't even defeat Zheng Yunhui, how was he supposed to fight others?
"Also, the heaven-grade martial technique requires a lot of acupoints. I doubt that many of its acupoints would overlap with my current opened acupoints. In that case, I also need to open even more acupoints."
He sank into thought. In his mind, that martial technique was already his. It required 132 acupoints. Not even the War God Art required that many acupoints. Even if he had the book in hand, it would be pointless if he couldn't cultivate it.
"Grotto, blood essence, cultivate!"
Su Yu inhaled deeply. Perhaps he could open more acupoints. At worst, he would only need to spend a little bit more time in the Great Strength. More acupoints would give him a stronger foundation and thicker source qi. Thus, he didn't mind staying longer in the Great Strength Realm.n/.OVelb1n
He was in no rush.
After all, he still needed to form 99 Divine Characters before he could enter the Skysoar Realm. He had plenty of time. And prior to that, entering the Infinite Strength Realm or not would not make that much of a difference for him.
"When I receive the blood essence from Xia Huyou tomorrow, I'll go straight to the grotto! I'll only leave before the Divine Character tournament!"
Su Yu reached a decision. He suddenly found that he had too many things to do. Even his remaining 10,000 merit points might not be safe. The 500 drops of blood essence he was about to receive should be enough for him to cultivate the War God Art. But what if he needed to open more acupoints?
"So 20,000 merit points are nothing, after all."

Thus, he didn't mind staying longer in the Great Strength Realm.n/.OVelb1nHe was in no rush.After all, he still needed to form 99 Divine Characters before he could enter the Skysoar Realm. He had plenty of time. And prior to that, entering the Infinite Strength Realm or not would not make that much of a difference for him."When I receive the blood essence from Xia Huyou tomorrow, I'll go straight to the grotto! I'll only leave before the Divine Character tournament!"Su Yu reached a decision. He suddenly found that he had too many things to do. Even his remaining 10,000 merit points might not be safe. The 500 drops of blood essence he was about to receive should be enough for him to cultivate the War God Art. But what if he needed to open more acupoints?"So 20,000 merit points are nothing, after all."
