Chapter 34

~5 min read 913 words

This disciple of his is simply too much of a genius.

He was just bragging, but it turns out his disciple is actually that formidable?

Can the "Ocean Tide Melody" really be this fierce?

However, although Huang Yaoshi is shocked inside, he maintains a calm expression to preserve his dignity as a master.

He even pretends to be an expert and brags a little more.

He claims he only used five layers of his cultivation.

"Ding! Detected that Huang Yaoshi is bragging. Conditions for system materialization met. Materializing reward for the host."

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a reward of ten years of cultivation!"

Pfft!

Xiao Mochen almost laughed out loud.

Huang Yaoshi is bragging again?

Ten years of cultivation, just like that?

Feeling his strength improve once more, Xiao Mochen cannot help but sigh with emotion.

This cultivation is simply too easy!

Just by listening to others brag, he becomes stronger.

How is this any different from becoming stronger while lying flat?

This master of his really cares about his face!

But the more he cares about his face, the more Xiao Mochen likes him.

After all, people who care about their face all love to brag.

Even if Huang Yaoshi didn't brag, Xiao Mochen would incite him to!

Otherwise, how would he become stronger?

"Master, you are truly amazing!"

"Five layers of cultivation are enough to match almost my full-strength strike!"

Xiao Mochen offered a little flattery.

Huang Yaoshi immediately feels light-headed, and a thought emerges in his mind: has he managed to awe his own disciple?

It was worth the bragging.

However, he begins to worry again.

How should he teach his disciple in the future?

Could it be that he must continue to brag?

Thinking of this, Huang Yaoshi feels a bit of a headache.

This bragging will eventually run out one day, right?

Having a genius disciple is truly a bother!

No!

His disciple is a genius; no matter how strong he becomes, he just needs to brag that he is stronger than him!

He could even learn from his disciple under the guise of giving guidance!

This old man is truly clever!

Thinking of this, Huang Yaoshi speaks again:

"Mochen, for you to have such strength when you have just begun to learn is truly the talent of a heaven-sent genius."

"In a few years, I fear you will surpass your master."

"However, your master can still offer you some guidance now."

"Tell me, what are your thoughts on this Ocean Tide Melody, and how did you perfect it?"

"If there is anything you don't understand, your master will guide you!"

"Yes, Master!"

Hearing this, Xiao Mochen does not hide anything and immediately retells the "formidable version" of the Ocean Tide Melody.

And in the process of this explanation, it is also a way for Xiao Mochen to review the old and learn the new.

Some things he didn't understand before suddenly become clear.

It is like climbing over one high mountain after another and seeing completely different scenery.

"Wonderful!"

"I never imagined it could be improved like this!"

"With just a subtle change, the power of this melody has increased several times over!"

Huang Yaoshi cannot help but exclaim in admiration.

At this moment, he doesn't even realize it.

Although he is the master, he is listening to Xiao Mochen's explanation like a student.

He even cannot help but offer praise when he hears something brilliant.

Xiao Mochen's perfection of the Ocean Tide Melody has benefited him greatly.

However, Huang Yaoshi soon notices his own loss of composure.

He immediately returns to his expert posture.

"Mianfeng, Mofeng, did you two understand?"

"If you don't understand, you must learn more from your junior brother!"

"You are all my disciples; compared to Mochen, you are simply blockheads!"

Huang Yaoshi shifts the focus and reprimands his disciples.

Wu Mianfeng: "???"

Feng Mofeng: "???"

Are they getting hit while just lying there?

He is actually comparing them to Xiao Mochen?

They would love to be as talented as Xiao Mochen.

But the conditions don't allow it!

"Master, actually, there is no need for my senior brothers to be like me!"

"Every person is different, with different experiences and different emotions."

"The path of Martial Dao and musical development is also completely different."

"As the saying goes, those who learn from me live, those who imitate me die."

"Only by pioneering and innovating on the foundation of predecessors can one walk a path that belongs to oneself!"

"Only then can one climb to the peak."

Xiao Mochen eases the awkwardness for the two.

This immediately earns him grateful looks from Wu Mianfeng and Feng Mofeng.

And Huang Yaoshi is stunned.

"What a 'those who learn from me live, those who imitate me die'!"

"I never thought Mochen would have such insights at such a young age!"

"Did you all hear that?"

"No matter what you do, you need to walk a path that belongs to yourself!"

Huang Yaoshi becomes even more fond of Xiao Mochen.

These words touch him deeply.

"Junior brother, you have great talent!"

"Listening to your words today is better than reading books for ten years!"

Wu Mianfeng cannot help but show a look of admiration.

From music to life.

Xiao Mochen's words are simple and easy to understand.

For these years, his strength has not improved.

It is because he has always been imitating Huang Yaoshi.

But, in the end, he is not Huang Yaoshi.
