Chapter 5: Yu Xiaogang Visits
"The Library! Of course there is!"
"But the Academy hasn't officially started yet, so the Library probably isn't open!"
"As for whether there are books related to Spirit Masters and Soul Beasts inside, I don't know that either."
"Because I haven't been to the Library yet!"
Lin Daguì scratched his head and said.
"Big Brother Lin, you're in sixth grade this year, so surely in the previous five years you never went to the Library?"
Ye Yu was very puzzled and curious.
These Work-Study Students of theirs came from poorer backgrounds.
Shouldn't they study even harder and not miss any knowledge?
"Why go to the Library?"
"The knowledge in the Library, teachers will teach it too!"
"We have classes in the morning, cultivate at night, so we can only play occasionally in the afternoon!"
"If we have to go to the Library to read in the afternoon, then there's no time to play!"
Lin Daguì was instead very puzzled by Ye Yu's inquiry.
Uh... fine.
Ye Yu sighed inwardly.
He almost forgot that he was a child physically, but an adult mentally.
And as a Transmigrator, he had a sense of urgency about everything.
But Lin Daguì and the other Work-Study Students before him were just ordinary children of commoner birth on the Douluo Continent.
Perhaps in their eyes, being able to cultivate to the Wu Hun Shi Zhi Jing was already enough to change their fate.
Their understanding was completely different!
But regarding this, Ye Yu became even more determined in his heart that he must strive to learn and cultivate.
Because on the Douluo Continent, there were surely many peers like him.
Who liked playing more than cultivating.
He just needed to spend less time playing than others every day, and use more time to cultivate and learn hard.
He only needed to spend less time playing than others each day, devoting more time to Striving in cultivation and study.
He would surely be able to slightly make up for his lack of cultivation talent.
And on the way back to Qisuo.
When he saw the situation inside Qisuo, Ye Yu was stunned for a moment.
Because inside Qisuo, there was actually a strange middle-aged man sitting there.
This middle-aged man wore a set of black Bachelor's Robes, had a Flat-topped Haircut, his cheeks and chin were full of stubble, his expression was stiff, and he was sitting on a bed, looking down at a book.
The middle-aged man wore a black Bachelor's Robe, had a Flat-topped Haircut, his cheeks and chin covered in stubble, his complexion stiff, sitting on a bed with his head down reading a book.
Because the bed this Fellow was sitting on was his!
Perhaps because his bed wasn't so dilapidated and was relatively clean.
And when the Work-Study Students of Qisuo returned.
The middle-aged man in Bachelor's Robes immediately put away the book in his hand, stood up, and asked with a somewhat hoarse voice.
The middle-aged Bachelor's Robe man immediately put away the book in his hand, stood up, and asked in a somewhat hoarse voice.
"Me!"
Ye Yu raised his hand somewhat doubtfully.
"Let me introduce myself, I am Great Master."
"You may not have heard of my name, but I am friends with your Dean."
"I heard your martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, and your Innate Soul Power is level one."
"I happen to be doing research recently, collecting various data on Blue Silver Grass martial souls, can you help provide some data?"
Great Master Yu Xiaogang walked over and said lightly.
Although the words were a request, his posture and tone inexplicably gave people a feeling of being high and mighty.
This made Ye Yu feel somewhat uncomfortable inside.
After hearing Yu Xiaogang's self-introduction, he naturally knew.
The middle-aged man before him was precisely the famous Great Master Yu Xiaogang of the Douluo Continent.
But whether in the novel or the anime.
Wasn't this Great Master Yu Xiaogang a talentless waste who also suffered emotional blows from Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong?
Wasn't he very inferior and timid?
So why did he give people a feeling of being high and mighty and bossy in front of him?
But regarding the discomfort in his heart, Ye Yu could only endure it.
Because even in his Previous Life, no matter how much he looked down on Yu Xiaogang.
But now, this Great Soul Master whose Spirit Power Level was as high as level 29 and who was friends with the Dean of Notting Academy.
He simply couldn't afford to provoke him!
"Okay, Great Master, may I ask what data I need to provide?"
Ye Yu showed a polite smile on his face and said.
"Your parents' martial souls, living conditions since childhood, whether you have consumed any treasures of heaven and earth."
"Your parents' martial souls, your living conditions from childhood, whether you have ever consumed any treasures of heaven and earth."
Yu Xiaogang was not polite either, directly proposing a large amount of data he needed.
Even including Ye Yu's height and weight.
He also wanted to measure Ye Yu's martial soul Blue Silver Grass and various related data.
Are you checking household registration!
Ye Yu could not help it anymore.
Giving no benefits at all, yet asking me to waste so much time cooperating with you.
On what grounds?
Is being able to fart with a martial soul something to be proud of!
"Great Master, my father's martial soul is Wood Spear, my mother's martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. Since childhood, I only lived under ordinary conditions and never consumed any treasures of heaven and earth."
Looking at Yu Xiaogang's arrogant and overbearing appearance.
If I am too cooperative, he will surely take an inch and demand a mile in the future.
Perhaps even my daily cultivation situation would have to be reported.
So Ye Yu endured his displeasure, merely smiled politely, and gave him some face.
He told Yu Xiaogang some data that could be directly spoken.
"As for the others, I am not too clear either."
"Great Master, I am going to start cultivating!"
Regarding Ye Yu's tactful way of seeing him off, Yu Xiaogang heard it out.
But he slightly furrowed his brow, yet had not the slightest self-awareness, instead saying.
"Cultivate? There is no rush to cultivate. You first provide me with the data."
"I study Blue Silver Grass martial souls; it is also beneficial for you Blue Silver Grass Spirit Masters."
"Little fellow, broaden your perspective a bit!"
Ye Yu was somewhat speechless and laughed helplessly.
"Great Master, I am just a child and do not know what perspective means."
"I only want to cultivate to become a Spirit Master as soon as possible, receive the Spirit Master subsidy from the Spirit Hall, and improve my life a bit."
"But I heard that Great Master, you have many books and notes recording knowledge related to Soul Beasts and Spirit Masters."
"I am very interested in these."
"If Great Master can lend me one book to read, I can first not cultivate and provide Great Master with more data!"
Ye Yu said very sincerely.
In his view, this transaction of his was very fair.
You cannot let people work for free without giving anything, right?
But upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's stiff face darkened, and he was very displeased in his heart.
What an ungrateful brat!
I, this Great Master, come from a prestigious family and am a grand Spirit Theory Great Master of a generation.
Being able to come collect your data is your honor!
You actually still want to freeload my books?
Do you know how precious Spirit Master knowledge is?
Because studying Blue Silver Grass martial souls was originally just casual research; in reality, it is very difficult to achieve any results.
Yu Xiaogang actually did not attach too much importance to this.
On the contrary, regarding the knowledge he had learned and the various books and notes he had collected.
Yu Xiaogang treasured them extremely.
Having been at Notting Academy for so many years, he would rather be called a freeloader.
He was unwilling to teach a single class at Notting Academy or reveal even half of his knowledge to prove himself.
Ye Yu actually wanted to sneak a look at his books and notes?
How could that be possible!
"If you do not want to help provide data, then forget it!"
Yu Xiaogang stood with his hands behind his back; on his stiff face was some gloom, and he said coldly.
"But at such a young age, you must learn more kindness and willingness to help others."
"A stingy child, no one will like!"
After saying this, he snorted coldly, pulled a long face, and quickly walked out of Qisuo.
