Rise of the Great Emperor

Chapter 291: Training

Chapter 291: Training

Lin Xiao let out a dry laugh when he heard what Prince Lin Yan asked. The highest reward for them when they reached the highest ranking was only 10 Low grade Spirit Stones per month.

For Lin Xiao, who required a large amount of resources, it had naturally become so little that he felt that he was always in a pinch.

"It’s not that many, indeed, which is why a lot of cultivators are fighting for the other resources in the academy. However, 10 Low Grade Spirit Stones... is naturally quite useful for Foundation Establishment."

Lin Xiao blinked his eyes.

But...

"But only if you’re a normal one because normally someone can’t absorb so many Spirit Stones so quickly." Prince Lin Yan had noticed that Lin Xiao was capable to absorb the Low Grade Spirit Stones much quicker than ordinary people.

He didn’t know the reason and naturally would not pursue it because it might be related to his physique.

"Also, true geniuses will not rely on these Low Grade Spirit Stones. They’re only auxiliary cultivators’ resources when they can’t absorb the Qi from nature. Why do you think the students are more enthusiastic about fighting for the room rather than this competition?"

Ah, right.

The training room naturally provided them with more resources. It was also one of the reasons why Lin Xiao didn’t even bother with the Low Grade Spirit Stones and the ranking and only did it as casual as he could.

"Also, the only reason why you can get so many is because you’re betting with your life. Do you know that danger and chance are always side by side? If you can survive from a danger, naturally you’ll be rewarded.

This kind of method of earning money is only for the desperate. I’m not bringing you to the bar to make money but to temper your strength against those who are stronger than you. To be a true genius, you need to be capable of leap battle!" Prince Lin Yan said strongly.

Lin Xiao nodded. He knew that the true reason why Prince Lin Yan dared to bring him to that place was because the latter wanted him to grow stronger.

It was also because of this that Lin Xiao believed that he would be able to grow stronger.

He will survive and win all the battles that was thrown to him!

"Then this...?"

"You can naturally absorb it." Prince Lin Yan was amused. "But I would suggest that you use it for other things that you certainly need more."

What I need more?

Prince Lin Yan didn’t give him more explanation than that. Lin Xiao could only return back to his room, which was one of the few rooms there that Prince Lin Yan randomly assigned, and sat there to ponder.

He looked at the pouch filled with Low Grade Spirit Stones, suddenly felt at loss for the wealth that he couldn’t use.

’You can actually keep it until you’re at Golden Core Stage. At that time, you’ll need a lot of resources.’

’I’ll get more Low Grade Spirit Stones when I practice later... it’ll be useless.’

’Then, do you want to set up formation?’

’Formation?’

’Dragon Language is naturally the strongest to make a formation and the others are only imitating how we used our language for inscription. You’re unable to learn the normal inscription, but you can learn the dragon inscription. I can teach you.’

Lin Xiao nodded in understanding. "Then the Low Grade Spirit Stones..."

"It can be used to replenish your Qi. While it would not be beneficial for training because it can’t be used to temper your core because of the difference in element, what would it matter if you just use it to replenish your Qi?"

"Inscription required Qi?"

"Of course, do you really think that you can draw in the air without Qi?" it was Lin Hu’s turn to be so speechless. He should be able to know that it wouldn’t be possible, right?

"Alright, then teach me."

"Sure. I’m sure you can understand most Dragon words because of the knowledge that’s passed down to you through the Emperor’s Inheritance. What I want you to do now is to recall every single one of them and write it in the air.

"..All?"

"YES!"

Lin Hu’s lips twitched. There were more than 6000 characters in Dragon Words. How in the world did he supposed to even remember everything so perfectly and write it? Forget it, he would try.

"Wrong, you missed a stroke!"

"Ah, you use the wrong sequence! Didn’t I tell you that you need to follow the correct sequence when writing? Are a kid who can’t even write properly?"

"Wrong! Use more pressure!"

"What? You lack Qi? Absorb more from the Low Grade Spirit Stones! You have plenty of them, don’t you?"

Lin Hu showed no mercy as he continued to give instruction for Lin Xiao to write the Dragon words in the air. Back in the mountain, Lin Xiao only learned how to write the simple sentences and at that time, the writing had been so ugly that it was unpresentable.

Now, the writing had turned much better.

In fact, Lin Hu was pleasantly surprised that Lin Xiao’s writing was improved.

But of course, that was not the main point. If before Lin Xiao merely copying blindly how the writing was, right now, he was understanding each of the word and unconsciously using his feelings.

He was pouring his heart when he was writing.

It might be faint right now, but Lin Hu knew that if Lin Xiao continued to train this way, the words he writes with dragon words would be filled with strong characteristic. One that can show its might with just being present.

’Hmm, he’s more and more like a proper Emperor now... but he’s still so weak!’ Lin Hu shook his head in Lin Xiao’s consciousness. He felt both elated and dissatisfied at Lin Xiao’s progress.

By the time Lin Hu ended the practice for the day, Lin Xiao immediately collapsed on the bed. His hand couldn’t move anymore.
