Chapter 985 Sword Crown’s Past, Arrived At The Academy, The Academy’s Conditions

The Saber Crown was far stronger than the Yokai Immortal who was just killed. If he wanted to leave, even the Sword Crown would not be able to stop him.

The Sword Crown stared at where the Saber Crown fled to and pondered. “He’s a lot stronger than he used to be.”

His figure flashed and then returned to the battleship.

Chu Kuangren had a glance at him and said, “You are hurt.”

“It’s just a scratch.”

Chu Kuangren channeled Spring Breeze Healing Technique. The spiritual qi in the realm, mixed with his source energy, were infused into the Sword Crown’s body.

He had upgraded the Emperor Technique to Immortal Technique, so even if it were used to heal an Immortal, it would work decently.

The Sword Crown soon recovered from his injuries. “Thank you, Master.”

“What’s with the battle between you and the Saber Crown back then?” Chu Kuangren asked curiously.

Upon hearing the question, the Sword Crown wore a reminiscent look on his face. “It’s an old story. The battle between me and the Saber Crown started with…”

Many years ago, the Seven Crowns were the most well-known names in the Planquilon Immortal World. No one else was able to rival them in terms of fame and strength.

In order to be the leader of the group and also to justify that the Saber Dao could defeat all the swordsmen in the world, the Saber Crown challenged the Sword Crown to a battle.

The Sword Crown was young and proud back then, so he accepted the challenge.

However, before the battle, the Sword Crown met a lady. It was said that a man’s biggest challenge would be from a woman, and the man happened to be the Sword Crown.

Having spent days and nights with the lady, the Sword Crown inevitably fell for her. They traveled the world in each other’s company, and it was the happiest time of his life.

From that day onwards, the Sword Crown had more than just Sword Dao in his life — his

love.

Then, when it was finally time for the battle, he found out that the woman he loved was actually the Saber Crown’s fiance!

The fact shook him to the core and severely distracted him. In the end, he lost and became a dispirited alcoholic.

“Hmph. The Saber Crown is quite good at this, sending his own fiance out to seduce you so that you are distracted during the battle. It’s the first time I heard someone wanted to be a cuckold.” Chu Kuangren clicked his tongue in amazement.

“Do you hate that woman?” Xue Qinxin asked curiously.

“I did at first, but I let it go eventually. Her family depended on the Oceanic Sword Grave, so she had no choice. She’s also a pitiful soul,” the Sword Crown said with a shake of his head and a bitter smile.

“You are quite forgiving as well,” Chu Kuangren teased. However, that marked the end of the conversation.

The battleship continued to Hundred Academy, and Chu Kuangren returned to closed-door meditation to upgrade his Daoist Physiques so that he could master more source energies.

Now, he was surrounded by enemies, and having the Sword Crown by his side was no longer enough to keep him safe.

He had to be stronger.

Two months later, Chu Kuangren and company finally arrived at Hundred Academy. The academy was located among the mountains, and its premises spanned a few million meters.

There were a succession of peaks, Immortal waterfalls gushing downwards, and rare and mythical beasts roaming the lands. There was even a floating island above the academy with Immortal Sparks glittering around it. It fitted the description of a wonderland.

On top of that, Chu Kuangren sensed some different energies inside the academy. There were Yokai Tribe, humans, and even foreigners.

The different energies seemed to live together here in harmony.

“Apparently, the academy accepts all, and it seems like it’s the truth,” Chu Kuangren mumbled.

“A friend from afar, I see. May I ask for a meeting at Heaven One Court?”

A voice sounded in Chu Kuangren’s ears from afar.

The higher-ups of the academy wanted a meeting with him, and it was not surprising at all.

He had made quite the name for himself in Planquilon Immortal World, and he had also offended quite a number of influential forces. In addition to the Sword Crown in his company, the higher-ups of the academy would never sit back and watch as he set foot on the premises.

“Ms. Xue, I’ll go meet the Masters first,” Chu Kuangren said. The next moment, he and the Sword Crown disappeared from the spot.

Heaven One Court was the parlor of the academy and also the place for discussion.

More than half of the Hundred Academy’s Twelve Masters were present today. Even the First Master was there.

Other than the dean, almost all the higher-ups of the academy were present just to meet that visitor.

A while later, a young man in white robes arrived at the entrance of Heaven One Court with the company of an elderly.

The Masters were cautious as they watched the young man come in. They sized him up carefully from top to bottom.

“So this is Chu Kuangren? The foreigner who has been gaining attention lately? There are no signs of the lightning tribulation on him. He hasn’t started on the Immortal Path.”

“But how did he defy heaven and kill Immortals?”

“It’s strange. The energies are a mess. I can’t detect what Dao he cultivates or what source energy he has…”

The more the Masters looked at him, the more impressed they were.

Chu Kuangren entered Heaven One Court with the Sword Crown. The Masters whom he saw consisted of men and women, young and old.

Even the weakest among them was a peak-stage Half-Immortal, and the two who sat in the middle of the bunch were not just any Common Immortals but Higher Third-grade Immortals!

They were on the same level as the Seven Crowns!

Chu Kuangren activated the Omniscient Spirit to analyze all the Masters before him, trying to find out more.

“I am Chu Kuangren. Nice to meet all of you,” Chu Kuangren nodded softly.

“No need for courtesy, Brother Chu. For what do Hundred Academy owe the visit?” asked a refined and elegant middle-aged man with a smile. He wore a set of green outfit, and he emanated a calm and steady presence. He was the Eldest Master of the academy. Chu Kuangren skipped to the point and said, “I heard the academy has an ocean of books that houses a hundred types of scriptures and tomes. I want to have a look.”

“All students of the academy are allowed to enter the Scripture Sea. It’s not a difficult request, Brother Chu,” the Eldest Master said with a smile.

“What are the conditions?” Chu Kuangren asked. He did not take the Eldest Master’s words for granted since the man was being straightforward.

The Eldest Master smiled and added, “Brother Chu, I see that you’re a straightforward person. In that case, I will be frank with you as well. The Sword Crown’s Sword Dao transcends even his peers, and we know Brother Chu is great at medical skills. Since the two of you possess valuable skills, I want the two of you to teach here at the academy.”

“Oh, how do you know I’m good at medical skills?”

“Is it not because you healed the Sword Crown that he chose to follow you?” the Eldest Master asked with a smile.

It was not that difficult for them to learn about that.

“A teacher? That’s something new. Okay, but first thing’s first, there are so many students here, and I can’t teach all of them. You guys can decide who to teach, and I will decide how to teach,” Chu Kuangren said.

“Great, we will adhere to your request.”

After a short discussion, Chu Kuangren decided to stay in the academy for a while.

Soon, the news of two new teachers in the academy spread like wildfire among the students.

The Sword Crown and Chu Kuangren — their names caused quite the commotion within the academy.

“The Sword Crown is going to teach in the academy?”

“Oh my god! The academy is amazing! They even got the famous Sword Crown as a teacher! He’s the man who stands at the pinnacle of Sword Dao! If we get to learn a thing or two from him, it will definitely benefit us a lot!”

“Wait, Chu Kuangren? Isn’t he the Immortal Progeny who defied heaven and killed Immortals? He’s also teaching at the academy?”

“Tsk tsk, those two are definitely something else.”

“Things are getting interesting here at the academy.”
