Rise of the Great Emperor

Chapter 410: The Training Room

"Do you have any question left?"

Lin Xiao then looked at Lan Qing Xi for a moment. "Does it mean you're not going to be a citizen of this kingdom?"

"I was never Sun Kingdom's citizen and I only come here through sheer luck. But if it's within my capabilities, I'll help Sun Kingdom if it's for you, Your Highness."

His meaning was clear. If it was for Lin Xiao, Lan Qing Xi didn't mind helping Sun Kingdom. But if it was for other people, he would not even think of coming to this place ever again and just continued with his path forward.

"That's great." Lin Xiao smiled.

"Anything else?"

"Yes. Are you leaving with Fan Pan?"

Fan Pan?

The name startled Fan Ling so much that she nearly tripped on the air. She looked at Lin Xiao with bewilderment, not understanding what makes Lin Xiao uttered her cousin's name so suddenly.

On the other hand, Lan Qing Xi was silent for a moment before he sighed. "It seems that you're not as stupid as you look like."

"I don't look stupid!" Lin Xiao denied.

Lan Qing Xi chuckled. "Yes, we'll leave together."

"I see. Should I assume that I will meet you again during 20 Years Ancient Battleground?" Lin Xiao asked.

"if you make it in time."

"Oh."

Lin Xiao nodded. He no longer asked anything else from Lan Qing Xi and the group left the residence. On their way back, Fan Ling looked like she was dying to know how Lin Xiao even made the connection with her cousin.

He didn't answer her, though. After all, he was only thinking about the possibility since Fan Pan looked like someone who had heard so much about the outside world even though he was still so young. His guess must be that Fan Pan had already come into contact with someone from outside.

And his guess was true.

That someone was Lan Qing Xi, another genius who was quite eccentric.

"You should return back to Fan Family while I have my preparation to meet with those from Jade Snow Kingdom and Bing Yue Kingdom."

"…Yes, Your Highness."

Even though Fan Ling still wanted to know more, she had no choice but to return back.

In the academy, Lin Xiao didn't meet with anyone who wanted to challenge him and his ranking settled at 488. He managed to get the reward:

One hundred one to five hundred: get 250 Spirit Stones per month and also 10 hours' chance to study in either one of the rooms

Five hundred one to one thousand: get 100 Spirit Stones per month and also 1 hours' chance to study in either one of the rooms.

The others chose to spend their time in the library in order to understand more of their skill while Lin Xiao borrowed their specialized training room for 10 hours. He was curious about how they would set it up.

"This is the Training Pavilion?" Lin Xiao didn't see anything different from this massive building.

The manager who was staying there chuckled when he saw Lin Xiao. "Is this your first time here?"

"Yes."

"The training room inside is made from the formation. When you come inside, you can imagine what kind of training you want and it'll direct the specific type of Qi while also changing the environment."

Lin Xiao was stunned. "That's possible?"

"Yes."

"I have 10 hours of training, let me use it all."

"You can use the room number 4, it's empty."

"Ok."

Lin Xiao walked in the corridor while looking around. Before he was three years in the academy, he didn't have the chance to come to this area. Now that he was here, he could say for sure that the academy was really big and they tried to provide everything to their students.

It was not bad.

He walked to the room number 4 and could faintly sense the rich Qi inside. The elements were mixed.

Silently, he tried to imagine lake.

Swoosh!

The training room environment changed greatly. Watching the change that occurred, Lin Xiao was dumbstruck. He never expected that it would really change in physics. Was it real lake in front of him?

'No, it's not real lake… It's just that the picture change and the Qi here is converted to that of lake element.'

Lin Hu mused. 'The formation is not bad but it's just deception. Go to train.'

'Fine~.'

Lin Xiao took out his sword as he began to think about what he wanted to train. He could recall the look on his younger brother when he used Sword River Bearing. While it did look like he had grasped the key essence, it was still faintly different from the real one.

After all, he mixed his understanding about lake rather than that of river when using the skill.

Those who could really use the Sword River Bearing skill might mock him if they saw his pitiful progress. His real skill has always been Chilling Lake Sword recently as it suited him very much.

Taking out his sword, Lin Xiao began to practice.

The cold permeated from him began to fill the place. He curled up his lips as he was determined to train up until the ninth move, the move that was supposed to be only for Golden Core Stage 2 or 3.

He had to train it.

Bang!

Sounds of swords moving around could be heard even from a distance away.

But since it was normal for the training room to be filled with the sound of training, no one paid attention to him. Swords were the most common one and naturally, it meant that they would not be paying more attention to him.

Chilling Lake Sword, Seventh Stance!

The chilling air completely spread across the room and freeze everything in front of the sword. Lin Xiao nodded in satisfaction. The seventh stance up to the ninth stance was very similar to the fourth up to sixth. However, the demand of the Qi and the profound skill behind it was much more.

With the aid of the Lake Qi in this room, his progress was faster.

Hmmm, he should learn how to use the Dragon words to create similar environment in the future.
