Path Of The Lilies - Chapter 377 Basic Control Class

“I should be glad that every new student has the same class,” Lu Wan groaned. He buried his face on the desk. He could not believe that he picked that annoying teacher as his master. He would die because of overwork soon.

“Just for the Core Disciples and Elite Disciple, Lu Wan.”

Qi Huan shook his head and took out his book. “You should be happy that the lessons are not that hard yet or you won’t be able to survive.”

“I always skip class in the past, and I manage to survive.”

“The lesson is completely different in this place.”

Ye Jiao smiled. She had also read books during the time before the lesson started since the teacher started it late. They understood that the new students would be late because they were not used with intense training. Thanks to the books she got from Qin Zheng and also the basic theories, she came to understand so much more about this world.

For her, they were all fascinating as she came to know many things about Eon Energy that she never knew before.

It was amazing.

“Also, are you the one who asks Senior Sister Lin to have a spar with me?” Lu Wan raised his head. He only managed to escape because his master gave him a lot of tasks. If not for that, he was sure that he would have been beaten senseless by that girl.

Qi Huan shook his head. “Why would I suggest something like that? I would rather spend my time reading.”

“Right, you have been reading a lot of books lately.”

“It’s important to know the knowledge in this place and so much more. Do you think that I’ll only study Eon Energy?” Qi Huan asked bluntly. He had gotten used to reading a lot of books because it was his duty. Before he knew it, he had finished all the books in the library in the Chi Kingdom.

Now, he planned on doing the same thing here. As long as it was not the martial arts book that can only be taught for a limited time, he would just spend his time reading them all and only practice when it was necessary.

“Reading is boring.”

“How about books about herbs?”

“That’s a completely different story! They’re the most interesting books you can find in the entire world!” Lu Wan said with vigor.

Ye Jiao looked at Qi Huan with a confused expression. “Is the Lu Family known to have a deep interest in herbs?”

“Not at all. They’re instead those who’re most fascinated by rules,” Qi Huan’s eyes landed on Lu Wan’s head. From what he heard before, green hair was quite unusual, so there might be a story behind this brat’s hair. He had never seen anyone with the same hair color so far.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“Lu Wan, do you know your mother’s name?”

“No, nothing.”

They stopped talking as a teacher walked inside. She smiled brightly as she saw the students were trying their best to sit up straight despite the fact that their body was overwhelmingly tired and sore.

“Good evening, everyone. I can see that you haven’t familiarized yourself with the new training system here,” the teacher joked.

The students laughed bitterly. They still wished that they didn’t have to follow after that hellish training after all.

“Today I’ll teach you how the basic control of Eon Energy works. First of all, I’m sure that all of you don’t have any problem directing your Eon Energy outside your body. There are two commons uses of Eon Energy. First, you use it to control an object and secondly, you form an object from the Eon Energy itself.

Controlling an object requires a delicate touch and concentration. For the time being, your task will be to control the wooden block in front of you to rotate in its place ten times.��

Everyone’s eyes landed on the wooden block on their table. It was around the size of a pen that looked extremely light to touch.

“Well, shall we try?” Lu Wan rolled his sleeves. He extended his hand and began using his Eon Energy to envelope the entire block. Astonishment filled his eyes as he realized that he needed to exert control highly for the wood was fragile.

Crack! Crack!

“Ahh! It’s cracked!”

“Mine too….”

All of a sudden, they all recalled their examination. At that time, they have to control their weapon using Eon Energy with utmost control, or it would go awry. Their faces turned sour as they knew that this time, they could not evade using Eon Energy.

Swish!

Lu Wan nearly cursed when he saw that the wooden block only turned once before it moved to the side a bit.

“It’s really hard, right…?”

At this time, the wooden block in front of Qi Huan was moving rapidly in place. There was not even any deviation from its path.

Qi Huan turned his head around. “Did you say something?”

“…Not to you…”

Ye Jiao extended her arm and began to control her Eon Energy to the wooden block. Recalling her experience in using her weapon, she perfectly rotated the wooden block. Her speed was lower than Qi Huan, but her wooden block still rotated perfectly.

Lu Wan: “…” these two are monsters.

Several others managed to finish rotating the wooden block without any difficulties. Some of them already had the basic training before they came here, so they didn’t find it difficult at all.

The teacher smiled. “If you have succeeded, you can try to use your Eon Energy to lift yourself to the air and walk.”

Walk?

Ye Jiao knew that Eon Energy Master could walk on air, but she never saw any Eon Energy Master Rank 3 do that before. Besides, the amount of Eon Energy needed to sustain themselves on the air would be enormous.

“You might not pass this one if you didn’t reach at least the middle stage,” the teacher added. “However, it’s important for you to learn how to levitate yourself.”

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Soon afterwards, the entire class was filled with the sound of students falling down because they were unable to control their Eon Energy. The theory was simple as they only needed to maintain the Eon Energy under them. However, the practice turned out to be very different.

It was not easy at all.

“Whoa!” Ye Jiao lost her balance slightly as she tried to lift her legs. She managed to make herself raise by around two centimetres. However, she could feel her Eon Energy decrease rapidly.

As she barely recovered 10% of her Eon Energy thanks to the pill that they gave, it was simply not enough.

Bam!

Ye Jiao landed on the ground with her legs. She felt glad that she didn’t levitate herself too high, or it would be hard for her to control her balance.

‘I guess, I’ll just recover Eon Energy first.’

Sitting down, Ye Jiao began to absorb Eon Energy. Once she had enough, she would attempt to levitate herself once again.

Just like that, time passed swiftly.
