Chapter 166 - 165: All 18 of You, Come at Once

Chapter 166: Chapter 165: All 18 of You, Come at Once

Magnificent, beautiful, and mysterious.

This was Guo Hengyu’s first impression of the Inner Courtyard as he gazed in awe at the trees and plants on the mountaintop and the mist-enshrouded grand buildings.

His eyes were filled with astonishment and delight.

"The fog is heavier in the morning, stick close to me." Du Shengfang led the way with a stern face and a slightly unpleasant tone.

Guo Hengyu’s reaction was normal; there was nothing strange about it.

After all, freaks like Lin Hao were not common.

Following yesterday’s events, many instructors even believed Lin Hao was a descendant from a major clan or a large sect.

As they passed by the library square and saw two to three hundred people gathered there, Du Shengfang scoffed twice.

"Teacher Du, why are there so many people standing here?" Guo Hengyu asked curiously.

"Hmph, there’s a new instructor today, and all these people are here to learn," Du Shengfang replied in a slightly strange tone, "A lesson on Swordsmanship starts at nine."

"Really?"

Guo Hengyu was thrilled; such open teaching of Cultivator knowledge was absolutely impossible at Binhai University.

Seeing over three hundred people stronger than him in the courtyard, his heart surged with excitement.

After settling into the arranged dormitory and putting down his things, he hurried to the front of the library, joining the Inner Courtyard disciples to wait, unwilling to miss this great opportunity.

"Big brother," Guo Hengyu addressed a person beside him expectantly, "I heard someone is teaching Swordsmanship today, is that so?"

"Yep," the person replied nonchalantly, "It starts at nine. There’s going to be good drama today."

"Good drama, what kind of drama?"

"Are you new here? You don’t even know this."

"Yes."

"Another newbie, stay away from me; seeing you newbies just annoys me." The man waved his hand impatiently, pushing Guo Hengyu aside.

Others also kept their distance.

This new arrival, Lin Hao, had already annoyed too many people. Guilty by association, the people uniformly shunned the newbies; Guo Hengyu stood confused, only able to listen to the surrounding discussions.

Gradually, he managed to gather a bit of information.

Today’s instructor was a bit special.

Because he was very young,

And just yesterday, he was still a student.

Today, transformed into an instructor, many did not accept him, so they were here, ready to teach the new instructor a lesson.

"Who exactly is it..." Guo Hengyu was puzzled; this got him really curious to meet this new instructor.

Up at the very front were Hong Dali, Li Shuangyan, and a few troublemakers.

They were all not young, each nearing thirty years of age.

A full hour of waiting.

Finally, it was nine o’clock.

People looked around, searching for Lin Hao’s figure.

However, Lin Hao did not show up.

Not even at ten o’clock.

Outside the crowd, in the forest, Gao Yulan, Du Shengfang, and others also grew impatient.

"Dean Lei, what’s with this kid, why hasn’t he shown up?" Du Shengfang asked with a cold face.

"Let’s wait a bit more," Lei Qianxiao regained his usual calm demeanor.

Gao Yulan wondered, "Could the kid be too scared to show up seeing so many people?"

"It’s quite possible," scoffed Old Du.

"Who says he’s scared to come? Look, isn’t that him?" Just then, a figure appeared not far from the library, hands casually in his pockets, slowly making his way towards the crowd gathered on the lawn under the escort of three people.

The other mentors were taken aback as they all looked in the direction of Lei Qianxiao, indeed seeing Lin Hao’s figure.

On the grass, two to three hundred disciples were excitedly shouting upon seeing Lin Hao:

"How come you just arrived, do you really think you are a mentor?"

"An hour late, our time is so precious, I’m telling you, if you don’t teach something useful today, we won’t let you off."

"Hmph, what useful could he teach." Li Shuangyan frowned disdainfully, "A guy who doesn’t even respect time."

"Shuangyan, don’t worry, today I’ll definitely teach him a lesson for you." A male student said, his name was Xiang Donglai, and in terms of strength, he was even stronger than Hong Dali, and he was a suitor of Li Shuangyan.

The crowd was seething.

In the crowd, Guo Hengyu, originally full of ambition and looking forward, froze upon seeing Lin Hao, dumfounded as a wooden chicken.

"He, he is our mentor?" He grabbed someone and asked.

"Yes, you’re from the outer courtyard, don’t you recognize him?" someone disdainfully replied.

Recognize.

Of course.

Guo Hengyu’s eyes dimmed, his expression dejected.

The person who had kicked him flying, he would never forget in his dreams.

But he never thought, he would come here, and moreover, become a mentor here...

He thought, by coming to the Inner Courtyard, he could surpass Lin Hao.

He thought the next time they met, he would surely avenge the kick.

But, reality harshly slapped his face, teaching him how to be a person.

Lin Hao ignored the clamoring students, guarded by Su Mo, Zhu Kang, and Zhuang Biyan, he walked to the forefront.

He saw Guo Hengyu, smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth, and said nothing.

He just stood quietly.

Letting the two to three hundred people clamor in front of him.

As time passed, people found that no matter how they spoke, Lin Hao remained unmoved, and the crowd gradually quieted down.

Li Shuangyan stepped forward and said: "Lin Hao, aren’t you teaching us swordsmanship? Why are you late?"

"Patience, swordsmanship needs patience, if you can’t even wait for an hour, what are you learning swordsmanship for?" Lin Hao retorted.

"Preposterous!" Today, most of the attendees had brought a sword, and Li Shuangyan was no exception, "Dean Lei said you are very capable, dare you compete with me?"

"You?" Lin Hao glanced at her, "If it were any other time, you certainly wouldn’t have a chance to compete with me, but today, since I’ve agreed to be your mentor, I accept your challenge."

"I know many of you don’t accept me, but it doesn’t matter."

Lin Hao stepped back a few steps, leaving a very spacious patch of grassland: "I’m giving you all a chance, anyone who wants to challenge me, step forward, let me see how many."

"Fine, consider yourself sensible." Li Shuangyan was the first to step out, "I challenge you."

"Me too." Hong Dali also stepped forward, "I accidentally lost to you yesterday, and I’m not convinced."

"Count me in." Xiang Donglai also stepped out.

"Me."

"I challenge too."

As the words of Lin Hao fell, scattered and sporadic, a total of eighteen people stood out.

Lin Hao glanced over, these eighteen people were basically the strongest in the Inner Courtyard.

The oldest was thirty-five or six, and the youngest were twenty-three or twenty-four.

These people, in front of ordinary people, could obtain high status, as well as money, randomly throw any one of them into the Mortal World, and they would be considered superior.

They grew up in the Mortal World, all being called prodigies since childhood.

Like Li Shuangyan, each one of them was very proud in their hearts.

"Let me try first." Xiang Donglai stepped forward first, holding a short sword.

"No." Lin Hao stopped him, "Don’t sort by who came first or last, and don’t waste time, all eighteen of you, come at once."
