Chapter 2145: Handling the Teaching

Zhao Hai has never handled children before. The only child he came in contact with was only Qiu Tie. However, Qiu Tie was already very sensible for his age. This time, he was faced with a group of children that weren’t as behaved as Qiu Tie. Therefore, it wouldn’t be easy for Zhao Hai to deal with them.

Fortunately, Zhao Hai had a lot of interesting things in his hand. He had food, toys, and anything else that a child would love.

The children were also aware that Zhao Hai was their teacher. People in the Long Clan held great respect to their teachers, especially the children. Ever since they were young, the children of the Long Clan were taught not to be arrogant. This made it convenient for Zhao Hai to coax the children.

To teach a student, one must first understand their strength. Because of this, Zhao Hai didn’t teach them immediately. He had the children practice their boxing skills first. If they learned weapons, they would show their weapon movements first. Then he asked the children about their spiritual roots.

There were 30 children assigned to Zhao Hai. This number was neither large nor small. One by one, Zhao Hai learned of the children’s martial arts. He would make a record of their progress, so each child had their own jade slip. Inside the jade slip were basic information about each kid.

This was a method that Zhao Hai learned from Earth. Even if it was a serious illness or a small fault, everything would be recorded.

Zhao Hai didn’t keep these jade slips on himself. He gave the jade slip to the children and told them to hand it over to their parents every time they went home.

Zhao Hai did this to inform the guardians of the children about their progress. After all of these things were dealt with, the morning passed.

The children would only attend classes with Zhao Hai in the morning. They would return to their homes in the afternoon. Some would practice martial arts while some would go out and play.

The Long Clan wouldn’t force their children to practice martial arts. They would also give their children time to play. After all, playing was helpful in maintaining a child’s healthy growth. This would benefit their practice later on. This was something the Long Clan found out after many years of observation. This was information that only a great clan like the Long Clan could have. Even the Tyrant Blade Sect didn’t know this.

There were many people in the Long Clan who didn’t understand why the clan suddenly arranged a teacher they didn’t know anything about to their children. Many parents were suspicious of Zhao Hai.

The Long Clan attached great importance to their children. If Zhao Hai’s teachings weren’t good, the parents would be angry with Zhao Hai. After all, Zhao Hai was an outsider while they were in Coiling Dragon City, the Long Clan’s land.

However, when the parents brought their children home and saw the jade slips sent by Zhao Hai, they no longer said anything. They could see Zhao Hai’s intentions from the jade slip. This caused Zhao Hai to gain a bit of recognition from the parents. What Zhao Hai didn’t expect was this matter reaching Long Tian, who in turn told it to Long Zhan. The Clan Head immediately ordered that all of the underage members of the Long Clan be provided with a jade slip that records the progress of their practice.

Zhao Hai didn’t put this matter in his mind. He was currently communicating with Laura and the others to come up with the most suitable learning program for the children.

Zhao Hai knew that if he wanted to enter the Long Clan, then he would need to provide value. The clan needs to see him as an important member. Therefore, they needed to see what he was doing, and that he was doing it well.

Zhao Hai had a feeling that the Long Clan wasn’t simple. Perhaps the Yin Yang Elders might now of the clan’s matters, but it was impossible for them to know too much. This was because big clans like the Long Clan rarely showed their true strength. If people know their bottom line, then they would suffer and decline.

At first, Laura and the others didn’t understand why Zhao Hai had to join the Long Clan. Even if the Long Clan was strong, as long as there was no conflict with the Tyrant Blade Sect, there seemed to be no threat to him.

However, Zhao Hai didn’t think so. In the True Spirit Realm, the 81 Great Sects were supposed to hold the power of the realm. But after staying in the realm, Zhao Hai found out that there was another powerful group, and that was the Ghost Cultivators. And now there was the Long Clan.

Not to mention other things, the strength that the Long Clan revealed was far from any Great Sect. And Zhao Hai felt that he had only seen the tip of the Long Clan’s strength.

If such a strength was only the tip, then what was the true strength of the Long Clan? If they had such strength, why would they allow the 81 Great Sects to rule the realm? There were secrets beneath the surface that Zhao Hai wanted to know.

Zhao Hai knew that the True Spirit Realm wasn’t his final destination. He had to go to higher realms. However, before he can ascend, he first needs to understand each plane he passes through. His strength was still lacking. Zhao Hai wasn’t intending on being chased down by the people of an entire realm.

Zhao Hai’s biggest secret was the existence of the Space. The Space was an entity that went against heaven’s will. No matter which realm it was, the Space would have a fatal attraction to any cultivator. Any cultivator who comprehended the Dao of Space would want to take Zhao Hai’s Space for themselves.

In order to guarantee his own and the Space’s safety, Zhao Hai needs to know everything about a plane.

The Long Clan was a powerful force in the True Spirit Realm. What Zhao Hai was scared of was the fact that he didn’t know if there were other hidden forces like the Long Clan in the True Spirit Realm. If there was, then Zhao Hai wanted to know the strength of the entire True Spirit Realm. Were the 81 Great Sects truly the controllers of the True Spirit Realm or were they just puppets?

Zhao Hai has time, so he wasn’t too anxious about this matter. He can take care of these things at his own pace. Only in this way can be assured that he could show his strength in the True Spirit Realm.

The next day, Zhao Hai’s teaching officially began. Zhao Hai’s method of teaching was different from other people. When the other children were learning martial arts, they would teach them a set of punching techniques first and then everyone would practice together. By the end, the teacher would evaluate everyone’s progress and teach the children what to learn next.

Zhao Hai’s method was different. He would arrange different exercises for each child. For example, some children would practice their strength while others would practice their posture. Some children would also learn how to control their breath. Even if the children practiced punching techniques, Zhao Hai would still give them different routines.

The children weren’t familiar with this method of teaching. Fortunately, the children were still young and quite obedient. They would follow Zhao Hai’s words and wouldn’t be lazy.

Naturally, Zhao Hai didn’t skimp on giving rewards. The children were given plenty of delicious food. Moreover, Zhao Hai didn’t make the children practice all morning like others. The children would practice for an hour every morning and then Zhao Hai would play with them for a while or have them eat delicious food. This was to ensure that the children wouldn’t be bored or tired during training.

Maintaining the children’s interest in learning was Zhao Hai’s goal in teaching. Zhao Hai knew that interest was the best motivation there is.

When the children were doing strength training, Zhao Hai would make sure that it would be treated like a game. He modified the strength machine so that whenever the children used it, there would be animations and sounds that would catch their attention. Only in this way could the children continue with the boring training.

The morning passed quickly, but none of the children were willing to go home. They felt that practicing with Zhao Hai was very fun, which was unimaginable for them before. Other people would have headaches when teaching these children, especially during the boring strength training. This was the most annoying exercise for kids.

But no matter what, strength training was important. Moreover, strength training needed to be done from childhood. However, it needed to be done in moderation otherwise it would leave hidden wounds in the body. So, when it came to strength training, teachers would have huge headaches teaching the children.

Now, Zhao Hai solved the problem. There were a lot of machines inside Zhao Hai’s courtyard. Each machine were different, but they had common features. The machines were very bright and were painted with cartoon figures that catered towards children.

After the children returned, their parents immediately examined their jade slips. There were a lot more content inside the jade slip. The information included the amount of training done as well as the results. There were also suggestions for parents as to what to do next and also what food to give their child.

When the parents saw the content of the jade slip, they were shocked. They haven’t seen instructions this detailed. They immediately analyzed the contents of the other children’s jade slip and found that the contents were different. The suggestions were also different.

The parents could no longer stay calm. They didn’t look for Zhao Hai but instead looked for Long Tian. Regarding education, Long Tian had the most authority in the Long Clan.

After Long Tian saw the contents of the jade slip, he couldn’t help but be excited. He hasn’t seen a teaching method like this before. He immediately called a couple of Zhao Hai’s students and conducted a test. Naturally, he didn’t make the children perform their fist techniques. Instead, he scanned them with his own spiritual qi to examine their progress. The results caused Long Tian to be startled. He discovered that Zhao Hai’s suggestions were the best path for the children. He was greatly surprised. He immediately went to Zhao Hai’s courtyard.

Zhao Hai didn’t know that his methods caused a huge upheaval to Long Tian. He didn’t dare use liquid silver dust in Coiling Dragon City. There were hidden monsters in the city and countless Earth Monarchs going about. If he released liquid silver dust, he would immediately be discovered. So Zhao Hai would rather be uninformed and focus on his job as a teacher.

As Zhao Hai was cleaning the machines, the front gate of his courtyard was shoved open and Long Tian entered. When he saw the courtyard, Long Tian couldn’t help but stare. This was because he saw machines that he hadn’t seen before. Long Tian was confused with the sight in front of him.

Zhao Hai looked at Long Tian and said, “Old Master, you’re here? Are you worried for the kids?”

Long Tian heard Zhao Hai and couldn’t help but look at him. Then he waved towards the machines and said, “Little Hai, where did these machines come from? Are they useful?”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “These machines come from the lower realms. They were used for training. Back in the lower realms, I stayed in a technology plane that used such machines.” Then Zhao Hai proceeded to explain the usefulness of these machines to Long Tian.

Long Tian listened to Zhao Hai’s explanation in earnest. After hearing Zhao Hai, Long Tian sighed and said, “I underestimated the wisdom of the lower realms. Although their density of spiritual qi is lower, their wisdom wasn’t any lower than ours. These machines might be useless to us, but they’re useful for the children.”

Zhao Hai nodded, then he invited Long Tian, “Old Master, please come in. Let’s share a few cups.” Long Tian didn’t decline and followed Zhao Hai inside.

After entering the room, Long Tian noticed that there was a computer on Zhao Hai’s desk. He had never seen a computer before, but he could still read the contents on the screen. He walked over and found that the computer was full of educational programs tailored for each child. Each step of training was written in great detail.

After a while, Long Tian stood up and then looked at Zhao Hai. His gaze contained a trace of emotion. Then he said, “Little Hai, I want to thank you. You did a good job. Your method is worth promoting to the Long Clan.”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “The children are very lovable. I’m glad I can use my ability to teach them.”

Long Tian nodded, then he said, “Why haven’t you gone to the clan’s repository? Are you not interested in the martial arts of the Long Clan?”

Zhao Hai shook his head and said, “Of course I’m interested. But I’m not in a hurry to read the clan’s manuals. I’ll focus on teaching the children first. I’ll go browse the clan’s manuals when I have time.”

Long Tian nodded, “Rest assured, the Long Clan won’t treat you unjustly. I will make them open the higher levels for you. This is something you deserve.”

Zhao Hai only smiled and didn’t say anything.
