Chapter 491: The Student Has Become the Master! Teacher Xu!

~7 min read 1,278 words

As a ninth-tier Law Saint and the current head of Lei Ting Wu Guan,

Su Qingli had always given people the impression of being cool, aloof, and elegant, as if she were a fairy untouched by the mortal world.

But at this moment, after hearing Xu Jingming's answer, she revealed an extremely rare look of losing her composure!

"This actually... is an SSS-tier Spirit Refining Art?!"

One could see Su Qingli's fair, clean oval face flush slightly red, a pair of beautiful eyes staring intently at the manual.

Her breathing grew rapid, causing her considerable, full bosom to heave violently up and down.

Xu Jingming, on the other hand, watched this scene with great interest — a scene of Su Laoshi losing her composure was not a common sight.

As for Su Qingli herself, an SSS-tier Spirit Refining Art was something Lei Ting Wu Guan had been pursuing since its founding.

Every previous hall master had wanted to find such an SSS-tier Spirit Refining Art, but without exception, they had all failed!

And now, this Spirit Refining Art had suddenly appeared right before her eyes — how could she not feel surprised and shocked?

"Jingming... you've really given me a huge surprise!"

After quite a while, Su Qingli finally calmed her excited mood, her eyes blazing with fervor as she looked at Xu Jingming:

"An SSS-tier Spirit Refining Art is so precious! You actually just shared it like this — I really don't know what reward to give you!"

One must know,

on today's Blue Star, not a single SSS-tier Spirit Refining Art had been discovered on the surface!

Even if one existed, it was hidden within some long-established ability-user clans and would never be shared!

It could be said that if Xu Jingming handed this Spirit Refining Art over to the nation,

the nation would absolutely satisfy any request he made!

Even helping him establish a massive force similar to Lei Ting Wu Guan would not be out of the question.

Yet he had chosen to share the manual with her instead......

"I don't need a reward."

Xu Jingming shook his head. "As I just said, I want you, Teacher, to study this Spirit Refining Art together with me.

This Spirit Refining Art has no cultivation experience to serve as reference."

In fact,

he really could hand the manual over to the nation's higher-ups and let them help research it.

But on one hand, with a bit more time, he could gain a preliminary understanding of the manual himself.

On the other hand, there was no one he trusted among the nation's higher-ups.

Letting Su Laoshi join in the research was the best method.

Teacher Yang Zhentian could actually do it too, but he wasn't an Elementalist, so he probably wouldn't understand Spirit Refining Arts well.

"I see, I understand now."

Su Qingli also understood, then said seriously:

"The existence of this SSS-tier Spirit Refining Art — I will absolutely not tell anyone else."

Unlike SS-tier Spirit Refining Arts, SSS-tier Spirit Refining Arts were even more precious; once exposed, even she might not be able to protect it.

Xu Jingming treated her with sincerity, so naturally she wouldn't let Xu Jingming down.

"But your luck is really a bit too good.

Previously you obtained the inheritance of an SSS-tier Lightning-system combat technique from the No. 9 Civilization Ruins.

Now you went to Myanmar and found another SSS-tier Spirit Refining Art.

Next time you go out, you can bring me along so I can share in your good luck too."

Su Qingli shifted her gaze away from the manual and said half-jokingly.

"Sure, but when the time comes, Teacher, don't refuse."

Xu Jingming blinked his eyes.

Then he took out "Lei Shen Jiang Shi" from his spatial ring again, grinning as he said:

"This is the SSS-tier Lightning-system combat technique I used at the assessment site last time.

If you want to learn it, Teacher, I can teach you."

"You teach me?" A strange expression appeared on Su Qingli's fair, pretty face.

The student has become the master!

Clearly I'm the teacher here, so why is it now you who's coming to teach me?

Although she felt strange about it, Su Qingli also understood clearly.

With an SSS-tier combat technique like this, having someone teach you and not having someone teach you were two completely different learning speeds.

With a teacher, one might grasp the basics in two or three months.

Without a teacher, researching on one's own would take at least half a year to start!

And that was with investing a large amount of time every day.

In fact, when Xu Jingming used this combat technique at the assessment site,

Su Qingli had known clearly that this was absolutely a combat technique very suitable for Elementalists.

But after all, this was an inheritance Xu Jingming had obtained himself, so she hadn't inquired about it afterward.

She hadn't expected that Xu Jingming would now take the initiative to share it.

"Su Laoshi, you'd better think it through — miss this village and there won't be another shop like this."

Xu Jingming waved the manual in his hand, grinning cheekily.

After her earlier loss of composure, he felt that Su Laoshi didn't seem quite so sacred and inviolable after all......

If it were anyone else daring to tease Su Qingli like this, they probably would have long been zapped by her Lightning-system ability until not even ashes remained.

Faced with Xu Jingming's request, Su Qingli thought for a moment, then gently nodded and agreed:

"This SSS-rank combat technique is indeed very useful to me.

In the coming period, I may need you, Jingming, to help teach me the key points."

After saying that, Su Qingli bowed slightly to Xu Jingming.

Then she straightened up, fixed him with a pair of pretty big eyes, and said with a light smile:

"Don't you agree, Teacher Xu?"

"No, Teacher, just call me Jingming." Xu Jingming's eyelid twitched and he quickly said.

Good heavens.

Having a Ninth-Order Law Saint like Su Qingli call him teacher—if word of this got out, how would that look?

"This was your own request."

A barely perceptible glint of mischief flashed through Su Qingli's eyes as she said softly.

Little fellow,

playing games with me, you're still a bit green!

"Yes, yes, yes, it was my request."

Xu Jingming quickly raised his hands in surrender, paused, and continued:

"By the way, Teacher, do you know any weapon masters who can repair elemental weapons?"

"What? Did you wear out the Yao Lei Zhang I gave you?" Su Qingli asked in confusion.

That shouldn't be the case—under normal use, an elemental weapon shouldn't be damaged for three or four years.

"No."

Xu Jingming shook his head. "I found a top-tier elemental weapon exclusive to the lightning element on the Chaos Triangle Domain side.

It's just in a damaged state, so I was thinking whether it could be repaired and then used normally."

"A top-tier lightning-element exclusive elemental weapon?"

Su Qingli's expression was stunned, then she said with a click of the tongue, somewhat marveling:

"Go on, what other good stuff did you get over there, and what do you need my help with? Tell me all at once."

Elemental weapons are divided into five different grades: Basic, Intermediate, Advanced, Top-Tier, and Perfect.

A single Advanced elemental weapon is enough for an elementalist to use up to the Seventh Order.

The Yao Lei Zhang she gave him was one that could last Xu Jingming all the way until he became a Seventh-Order Grandmaster.

But now, unexpectedly, he had casually pulled out a top-tier elemental weapon—this was something she hadn't anticipated.
