"Only by reaching this level of trust can I popularize previous training methods among my brothers at the academy..."

Jiang Chen continued, and when he reached this point, he chuckled bitterly: "It's not about others; Dean, would you be at ease to let Wu Hen reveal all his secrets to me without reservation? This includes cultivation techniques, the way spiritual power is operated, insights into the Great Dao, etc. Would you be at ease?"

"This..."

Jian Cangqiong hesitated for a moment and fell silent.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly and turned to Ouyang Ruoxue: "You heard it too. If you want to improve thoroughly, this is the only way. Of course, you don't have to do it. I can still discover some issues by battling you after understanding the knowledge of the Divine Infant Realm. However, doing it that way is time-consuming and not very accurate, although it should provide some improvement."

"The cultivation technique I practice is my grandfather's, called..."

Ouyang Ruoxue did not hesitate at all and began to directly introduce her cultivation technique.

"Stop!"

"Xue'er!"

Two cries sounded simultaneously, startling both Jiang Chen and Ouyang Cangmu.

"What are you doing?"

Jiang Chen looked at Ouyang Ruoxue with amusement: "Even if you want to introduce it, there's no need to be in such a hurry, is there?"

Ouyang Ruoxue paused for a moment, blinked, glanced at Jian Cangqiong and the others, blushed, and lowered her head slightly.

"Now I understand why you say it can't be popularized."

Ouyang Cangmu patted his chest: "Even though I was mentally prepared for Xue'er to tell you when you said it, when Xue'er started speaking, I still felt alarmed and uncontrollably wanted to stop her!"

"It's only human nature!"

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, turning to Jian Cangqiong: "Dean, I know you want to promote it throughout the academy, but it's meaningless. If it's just basic training methods, everyone can think of them—it's simply dividing the power into small portions or separating a bit, then controlling it, and once control is free, gradually stacking it up. These methods are something everyone can think of, as long as they have perseverance."

Ah!

Jian Cangqiong nodded, abandoning this idea.

"Old drunkard, time is of the essence. Let's talk to Mr. Jiang about cultivation matters and the differences and attentions between various realms!"

Ouyang Cangmu eagerly spoke.

"Alright!"

Hu Yiqiu nodded, then took out two array talismans from the space ring and handed them to Ouyang Cangmu: "Take this, and return the Dean's array talisman to him; that talisman can't stay here for long!"

"Okay!"

Ouyang Song took the array talisman, giving one to Ouyang Ruoxue, and then returned Jian Cangqiong's talisman to him.

Jian Cangqiong received the talisman and did not linger any longer, bidding farewell alongside Li Qingzhu and Dao Yeming.

Li Yukun stayed behind to instruct Jiang Chen with Hu Yiqiu and Ouyang Song, while Ouyang Ruoxue attentively cut leaves by the side.

The three masters explained cultivation matters, attentions, the differences between various realms, and how to control various power types to Jiang Chen.

One acted as the main speaker, two supplemented; a young man of the Divine Infant Realm Early Stage received guidance from three Hegemons of the Integration Realm together, and Jiang Chen himself didn't know if this were to get out, how many would envy, be jealous, and resent it!

This lecture lasted a full day and night, and this was just scratching the surface. If detailed, the time needed would be measured in years!

From the next day, Yun Tao and Jian Wuheng also arrived at Southern Maniac Mountain's peak to cut leaves with Ouyang Ruoxue.

Jian Wuheng came voluntarily after hearing about this from Jian Cangqiong, while Yun Tao was summoned back by Hu Yiqiu. When he heard there was a way to enhance power control, he immediately sat beside Jiang Chen, cutting leaves while keeping a close eye on Jiang Chen, as if fearing Jiang Chen would run away.

Changlin Academy's new students assessment was taken over by Jian Cangqiong's disciples!

...

"Yiqiu old brother, Mr Jiang, Xue'er is entrusted to you!"

At the foot of Southern Maniac Mountain.

Ouyang Song bid farewell to Hu Yiqiu and Jiang Chen.

"Rest assured, Ouyang Senior, I'll do my utmost to help Miss Ouyang improve."

Jiang Chen spoke earnestly.

"Good!"

Ouyang Song nodded, took a look at Ouyang Ruoxue, and flew off to find Jian Cangqiong to say goodbye.

"Kid, are you really not interested in Ouyang girl? If not, why are you so invested?"

A sound transmission echoed in Jiang Chen's mind.

Jiang Chen rolled his eyes at Hu Yiqiu, turned and walked toward the mountain, replying via sound transmission as he walked: "When fighting with Miss Ouyang, I heard you speaking, I don't know why Master left Changling Main Court, but since I have to return eventually, it's necessary to strengthen ties with Senior Ouyang—after all, a hundred years can change many things, including emotions!"

Hu Yiqiu froze for a moment, revealing a touch of emotion.

"You cheeky kid... you make me... ah!"

Hu Yiqiu sighed; the emotional bond between master and disciple was not even a month old, yet Jiang Chen was already considering things from his perspective, which greatly moved Hu Yiqiu.

Back at Southern Maniac Mountain's peak, Hu Yiqiu called Jiang Chen into his wooden cabin, with Li Yukun following.

"Kid, there's something I need to tell you."

Hu Yiqiu glanced at Li Yukun and spoke softly.

Thud!

With a muffled sound, Li Yukun directly knelt before Jiang Chen.

Whoosh!

"Elder Bei Mo, what are you doing?"

Jiang Chen was taken aback, quickly stepping to one side.

"Old fossil, get up first. My disciple hasn't even decided whether to accept you or not! He knows nothing, isn't this scaring him?"

Hu Yiqiu glared at Li Yukun with dissatisfaction.

Li Yukun paused slightly, and then came to his senses, standing aside, looking at Jiang Chen with respect: "Mr. Jiang, here's what's going on..."

Just like that, Li Yukun explained the situation while standing.

After listening, Jiang Chen understood, glancing at Hu Yiqiu, who showed a faint hint of concern.

With a slight smile, Jiang Chen addressed Li Yukun: "I don't need servants. You just be a proper elder, and a good friend to my master!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chen strode out of the cabin.

"This..."

Li Yukun was taken aback, looking somewhat confused at Jiang Chen's departing figure.

"Haha! Old fossil, did you hear that? My disciple doesn't want you as a servant, and if you wish to be his servant, no chance!"

Hu Yiqiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, laughing as he spoke.

If Jiang Chen had truly accepted Li Yukun as a servant, it would have made it difficult to interact with Li Yukun, Li Qingzhu, even Jian Cangqiong and Dao Yeming afterward, and even if Jiang Chen accepted, Hu Yiqiu couldn't say anything about it. This was ultimately a previous agreement between Li Yukun and the Shadowless Sword Emperor, not Jiang Chen's fault.

But now, Jiang Chen saying he doesn't want a servant pleased everyone, diplomatically resolving the matter. Hu Yiqiu wouldn't feel awkward interacting with the others, and Li Yukun wouldn't be considered as breaking his promise.
