Chapter 3: Above the School

After a few days, Qingchi led Shiyu, who had been waiting anxiously and bored, to the Royal Academy.

The school was quiet and the furnishings were very ordinary. There were neat desks arranged below, and all kinds of learning tools were available. At the top was the honorable seat of Master Dixian.

"So the Royal Academy is the same. I thought it was extremely luxurious and extravagant. That's good! I'll get used to it this way." Shiyu thought secretly.

Although the school was not big, it seemed a little empty because there was no one. Shiyu looked at the desks and there was no special mark to indicate which student it belonged to. He sat down in the middle and spread out the reading materials to chew carefully. Although he had read it many times, who knew what Master Dixian would study. It was always good to read it more and think more.

As time passed, students came to the school one after another. In comparison, Shiyu looked a little shabby with only Qingchi to accompany him.

Young people always admire and admire others, and Shi Yu is no exception. He looked at these royal relatives and sons of powerful families with some envy, thinking secretly: I must study hard and become so noble in the future.

Shi Yu paid attention to them, and they naturally paid attention to Shi Yu. After all, Shi Yu was too famous, and he was the first child prodigy in the world appointed by the emperor himself!

These naughty boys had already worn out their ears because of Shi Yu's name. Today, they had to study under the same roof, so of course they had to take a good look at how extraordinary this child prodigy was.

The girls were still reserved, just gathered aside and laughed secretly, and it was hard to hear what they said. The boys were much more cheerful, surrounding Shi Yu and asking him questions. Shi Yu was a little overwhelmed by this inexplicable enthusiasm, and his brain was almost turned into a paste.

"Shi Yu, I heard that you are the first child prodigy in the Shenyu Realm! You have read all the articles in the world, but no teacher can teach you. Is it true?"

"Do you still doubt this? If not, how could His Majesty and the master recruit him to the capital and enter the Imperial Academy! He is only seven years old now, and he is already a scholar, and you can't even recognize a few words!"

"Shi Yu, if there is no age limit, can you become the top scholar?"

"Shi Yu, does the master like you very much? He even assigned you a personal maid."

"Shi Yu, you are so amazing, write a poem for me to listen to."

"Shi Yu, look, this is a cricket, I will teach you how to play with it. I bought it with great difficulty at a high price. My father said he would treat you well, so I will give it to you."

There were so many mixed words coming and going that Shi Yu didn't know who to answer first.

In the chaos, a light cough sounded, and the students looked in the direction of the sound, and it was Master Di Xian walking towards the honored seat.

Everyone immediately dispersed and ran to a desk and sat down.

Master Dixian sat cross-legged behind the desk, his eyes slowly swept over the students, paused at Shi Yu, and then retracted, "Today, everyone will read the first lesson. If you don't understand, come and ask."

After saying that, he picked up the book in front of him and read it carefully.

Shi Yu was a little dumbfounded. Just start the class like this? No teacher to lead the reading, no new words to teach, just read the book by yourself? He sat in the middle of the first row, looking forward, he only saw the master's head and silver hair bowed down to read, looking to the sides and behind, the students looked calm, as if they had already gotten used to it.

After a while, the prime minister's youngest son Lin Fan stood up, walked lightly to the master, pointed to the words he didn't know and asked for the pronunciation and meaning. After the master taught, he returned to the desk and continued to read softly.

The girls were fine, they studied quietly, and the boys, the descendants of civil officials and the princes and grandchildren, were also serious, but

the descendants of military generals seemed to have no idea what books were, looking around and doing nothing.

The son of the Marshal, Gao Meng, even flipped through two pages casually, and then took out a chirping insect behind the desk to play with it. The insects chirped and disturbed the class, but the master seemed to ignore it.

Shi Yu was very surprised by this, this school was really casual.

Not long after, the students who were serious about studying had come to the stage to ask for advice, only those who were unlearned and unskilled were swaying in their seats, and some had already fallen asleep.

Shi Yu looked down at his reading book, not to mention the first lesson, he had read the whole book, there was no word he didn't know, and there was no unclear meaning. If he forced to ask questions, it would be nitpicking.

"What should I do? Should I go up and ask something just to show off?"

Because Shi Yu also found that although the others were doing their own things, they were also secretly distracted, wanting to see what extraordinary behavior this child prodigy had. If he sat there until the end of the class without moving, they might think that he was either in name only or arrogant, which would not be conducive to getting along with him in the future.

Unable to sit still, Shi Yu had an idea and turned around the desk and walked towards Master Dixian.

A strange atmosphere spread in the school, and everyone was watching what Shi Yu was doing. Even those who were sleeping were pulled up by the table next to them.

The eyes of each student were full of curiosity, and everyone seemed to be waiting for something to happen. The servants of various families who were standing quietly outside the window also looked into the school, wanting to see what kind of magic this child prodigy had.

The beams of eyes pierced Shi Yu's back like needles, and it was like a heavy burden suddenly pressed on his young shoulders, which made him a little nervous. Fine cold sweat oozed out of his forehead, slid down his temples to his cheeks, itchy and numb.

When he walked in front of the master, Shi Yu turned his head and looked back. Dozens of bright eyes stared straight into his pupils without moving. Shi Yu's mask-like smile hung on his face again.

"Master, I have memorized all of it, and I have a basic understanding of the meaning. Please test me."

Shi Yu planned to memorize the whole article first, so as not to lose the title of a child prodigy. Then, if the master asked about obscure parts, he would take the opportunity to ask for advice, and show that he still had shortcomings, so that everyone's jealousy and resentment would be relieved.

But Shi Yu's little thought didn't seem to be hidden from Master Dixian. The master glanced at Shi Yu lightly and said, "As long as you know how to do it, you are different from them. You don't have to stick to the lectures in the school. You can just watch whatever you want." ”

"ah?"

Shi Yu was stunned when he said this, and so were all the students in the hall. Deep disappointment and resentment filled every student's face. They neither saw the prodigy stumping the master, nor did they see the master questioning the prodigy. Instead, it was the master's words that lifted Shi Yu to a higher level.

Shi Yu's plan to make friends with many students came to nothing. He scratched his head helplessly and was about to speak when a light flashed in Master Dixian's eyes. He suddenly stood up and said, "Take a break for a moment. Let's go and have a rest."

After that, he left without looking at Shi Yu.

Shi Yu looked back helplessly. Except for Gao Meng who was gesturing at him with a songbug, the other students looked at him with some alienation.

No one knew that the master who had suddenly finished his class was sitting in a quiet room, silently looking at the emperor Yu Wubing in front of him.

After a long time, the master broke the silence with a voice: "You are still too impatient. You went to the academy to spy and released your power in front of me. Do you still want to take action?"

"I have a two-hundred-year lifespan limit. I don't have long left. I just want to see if he behaves strangely while studying."

"At least a few more decades."

"Master, I just want to stimulate this child's potential. Why not? It's too slow to do it step by step! If he is Yu Tong, wouldn't it be better to show up earlier? If not, I can also try my best to find Yu Tong's whereabouts. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

"There is no such thing as the best of both worlds, and you are wrong, there is no step-by-step approach. Because I want to teach it myself, the shrine has set new rules, and he can learn and practice the principles of martial arts on his own. You can read the secret skills of the shrine here, but I can’t teach you how to practice. Your success or failure depends entirely on yourself.”

"What? How can anyone learn martial arts skills just by reading books? Last time, the master said that you would personally teach me. I was overjoyed, but what should I do with this sudden change?!"

Master Dixian was impatient after hearing Yu Wubing's offensive words, and his eyes gradually became cold.

"I didn't expect the elders of the shrine to have such restrictions, but Yutong is Yutong, you don't need to worry too much."

When Yu Wubing saw the master's cold expression, he couldn't help being startled. He quickly lowered his head and said in a low voice: "The legendary Yu Tong can understand the world's articles by himself if he can read words, and he can also learn all the martial arts techniques in the world.

Shi Yu has never been exposed to martial arts techniques before, so he naturally has no way of awakening to martial arts. Once he dabbles in martial arts, he will definitely improve by leaps and bounds. That’s what I should think, right? "

Master Dixian glanced at Yu Wubing indifferently and said: "My God, the Yu Empire, has no calculation of the founding date of the country. There have been countless emperors, and there are countless people who are as unwilling as you. You can still go to Yu Tong, rely on Yu Tong What about those who can’t enter the divine palace?”

"So, hope is right in front of you, but you can't do anything about it. It's better to have no hope at all." Yu Wubing raised his eyebrows.

"If it weren't for the rare chance of you returning to your ancestors with pure blood, I would have ignored whether Shi Yu was a Yu Tong or not! So, what else do you have to be dissatisfied with? Besides, you are not the only pure blood. There have been dozens of emperors in the past, how many can you get? Yu Shen Palace? It’s not buried in the imperial mausoleum!”

"Thank you, Master, for waking me up! The student understands." Yu Wubing's body trembled slightly, and he bowed and dispersed.

The first day of teaching had just ended, when Shi Yu returned to his room and was packing up his books. Qing Xi touched behind Shi Yu with a smile and punched him on the back, causing him to grimace in pain.

"Sister Qingxi, what are you doing again! Didn't I apologize to you?"

Shi Yu tried his best to bend his arms, but he couldn't rub his vest that was in severe pain.

"What do you call an apology? All the frivolous libertines who dared to talk to my sister were fed to the dogs! If it weren't for your young age, I would have thrown you into the royal hunting ground to feed the wild boars and leopards."

"Fortunately, I'm not feeding the dog." Shi Yu leaned against the wall and rubbed hard to relieve the discomfort caused by the punch, with unbearable pain on his face.

"Does it really hurt? I haven't exerted my strength yet! Why is your little body so fragile!" Qingxi saw that Shiyu was indeed uncomfortable and hurriedly came over and rubbed his back.

Shi Yu chuckled, nodded with satisfaction, and even let out bursts of comfortable hums.

"Kid! You lied to me again!" As soon as Qingxi saw Shi Yu's deceitful smile, she knew she had been fooled again and raised her hand to strike again.

"Don't! Stop fighting! Didn't you come here just to hit me?" Shi Yu struggled hard and jumped out a few steps.

Only then did Qingxi remember that she had something serious to do, but Shi Yu had forgotten all about it due to the interruption. She was so angry that she squinted her eyes and raised her dark eyebrows to the sky. She glanced at Shi Yu hatefully and said, "Master told you to go, you Come with me!"

Shi Yu chuckled and said, "Sister is the person in the painting. The angrier she is, the more beautiful she is!"
