Chapter 59: Chapter 59 Li Mingru, Half-Realm Cultivator!

"Teacher!"

Yu Qingqing exclaimed in surprise, urgently wanting to get up, but found that her legs seemed to be firmly pressed down by something, and she couldn’t move at all!

Lu Chen was also shocked, he had not expected that the other party would make a move on him right after giving thanks!

He also felt a force of a thousand pounds on his legs, and in his urgency, he forcefully channeled Spiritual Power into them!

In an instant, he broke through the force and leapt up like a spring onion from dry land!

"Eh?"

A surprised and doubtful voice came, and those few shadowy figures also landed three feet in front of Lu Chen, turning out to be several black stones!

Lu Chen, although he did not use his pupils, could feel that there was Spiritual Power circulating on these stones!

Spirit Stones?

So the teacher didn’t mean to harm him, but was giving him a few Spirit Stones?

And by the way, testing his reaction?

"Your name is... Lu Chen, right?"

Right as Lu Chen landed, the teacher also suddenly appeared in front of him, his eyes moving ceaselessly as he scrutinized Lu Chen.

Those eyes seemed tangible, as if they could see right through him.

"Yes, senior!"

Lu Chen dared not even let out a breath.

Because...

This was definitely a strong Martial Artist from the Soul Refinement Realm!

"To be able to break free from my restraint, and based on your earlier reaction, you qualify to learn from me!"

Hearing Lu Chen agree, the old man suddenly showed a kind smile.

Yu Qingqing also let out a sigh of relief, seemingly a bit defiantly saying, "Teacher, he killed a Martial Artist from the Marrow Refinement Realm! Just one move, only one move!"

The old man was not surprised, instead he let out a hearty laugh, saying, "Anyone who could put you in mortal danger must be at least above the Marrow Refinement Realm! And besides, you are a student of the Heavenly Book Academy, those who would dare to make a move must surely be ruthless and vicious types!"

Yu Qingqing was stunned, not expecting that the teacher had already guessed the truth, so was it a test for Lu Chen?

"Come in," the old man smiled and turned to walk into the house, saying, "You have an injury in your lower abdomen, and if I am not mistaken, your Dantian is probably gone, right? Those few Spirit Stones should be useful to you, I do not understand the methods of Spiritual Energy and have no use for them myself."

Lu Chen felt both shocked and delighted, shocked that the old man could see through his injury with a single glance, and delighted that those few Spirit Stones...

When he cultivated the Heavenly Inquiry Spirit Technique himself, the issue of speed was secondary, the main problem was that he could not divide his attention and stay aware of his surroundings.

If the Spirit Stones could be used like Yuan Stones, allowing him to absorb their power for his own use at any time, then he would never encounter a situation where he could continue no longer!

Thinking back to his time in Yuzhou City, he had run out of Spiritual Power and had almost died at the hands of Xu Yueru!

"Thank you, teacher!"

Lu Chen carefully pocketed the Spirit Stones and then cautiously followed Yu Qingqing into the courtyard.

The courtyard was very simple but neat.

In the middle was a whole hall, brightly lit, inside, it was evident that tables and chairs were arranged, clearly for teaching purposes.

But Lu Chen was somewhat puzzled, what else did a Martial Artist have to learn?

Following the old man into the main hall, Lu Chen’s surroundings suddenly lit up.

"Qingqing, you first help Lu Chen prepare some items from the academy."

After sitting in the grandmaster’s chair in the main hall, the old man then sent Yu Qingqing away.

"Yes, teacher!"

Yu Qingqing ran off, her expression showing that she was happy for the teacher’s acceptance of Lu Chen.

"Have a seat."

The old man smiled kindly and pointed to the chair beside him.

"Thank you, teacher!"

Lu Chen sat down respectfully, after days of arduous travel, he had finally arrived at his destination and could take a breath of relief, and then peacefully cultivate for a while at the academy.

Once his strength was sufficiently improved, he would take on the adventure in the Tianyuan!

"Lu Chen, how much do you know about the Heavenly Book Academy?"

The old man’s words interrupted Lu Chen’s thoughts.

Lu Chen scratched his head, he knew some things, but did not know where to start, so he simply said, "Teacher, I come from a small city, I have only heard that the Heavenly Book Academy is a holy land for Martial Artists, so I wanted to join and hopefully have the opportunity to experience the Tianyuan!"

"Lu Chen," the old man suddenly became serious, and said, "You only have one eye left, you must have gone through a lot of hardship. So you came all this way to the Heavenly Book Academy just to make yourself stronger?"

Lu Chen was startled and knew his answer would determine the teacher’s attitude towards him.

After pondering for a moment, he said, "Teacher, as I mentioned, my aim is the Tianyuan!"

The old man’s eyes gleamed, saying, "So, the Heavenly Book Academy is just a stepping stone for you?"

"Not exactly," Lu Chen shook his head, "I came to the Heavenly Book Academy because I wanted to become stronger, not because I think that by coming to the Heavenly Book Academy I will become stronger."

This response, convoluted as it sounded, brightened the old man’s eyes.

The difference in the order implied Lu Chen’s attitude towards cultivation.

The Heavenly Book Academy is a holy land for Martial Artists.

But it is not the ultimate goal!

The old man let out a loud laugh saying, "Good, good!"

"Lu Chen, my surname is Li, my name is Ming Ru! Although I am only in the Visceral Refinement Realm, I am the only half-realm cultivator in the Heavenly Book Academy!"
