The Invincible Supreme Medical God

Chapter 844 - 474: Royal Art Academy

...

If it really came to a battle, even without relying on Lan Feng’s strength, Yan Xiaobao now also has confidence in dealing with most Holy Name Experts. Even if he could not defeat them, he at least had the ability to escape.

"Please follow me." The guard, who had left once to announce their arrival, had returned and instructed Yan Xiaobao and Lao to follow him, which they both did.

Once, when Xu Hui was looking for Rong Ming and Rong Xing, he studied at the Royal Art Academy in Muchuan City. However, this time, the situation was different. This time, he had actually entered the gates. Looking at the many houses, Yan Xiaobao and Lao were speechless. These buildings were all made of marble, while some smaller houses were made of jade and had protective devices in front.

Passing through the Royal Academy, they quickly passed where Yan Xiaobao had found the Rong twins, and they continued deeper into the academy.

The house up ahead was where the students were taught; it also contained a vault preserving the school’s skills and techniques, and they also passed the academy’s medicinal medicine outlet.

The rules of the academy are similar to those in Liluo City. Each child would take a pill once a month. However, the pills they obtained here far exceeded the medicines they got in Liluo City.

However, to obtain one of these medicine pills, they needed a reason to stay at the academy. People like Lao would not be given medicine, but Yan Xiaobao was not worried. Lao had reached the Master level on his own in such a short time. He had raised his foundation as quickly as possible time and time again, making his base slightly unstable. Because of this, his cultivation now became much slower, but now it was time to strengthen his foundation, which was exactly what Yan Xiaobao hoped he would do. If his foundational knowledge did not meet the standard, there was no reason to rush to ascend.

Suddenly, they all came in front of a small house made of stone. Behind this house, one could see house after house, which was clearly where all the students lived.

Walking together toward the small house, the guard gestured for Yan Xiaobao and Lao to stop. As they did so, the guard knocked on the door. "Announce Lord Xu’s arrival," he shouted, and knocked on the thick wooden door with a firm voice inside. "Enter."

The door slowly opened, and as he gestured for Yan Xiaobao and Lao to enter, the guard bowed. Yan Xiaobao nodded to the guard, followed by Lao.

Compared to the bright day outside, the house was dimly lit. The entire building seemed to be just one room. In the room was a large table situated in the middle and back, a large leather chair, with a young-looking man sitting in the chair. Bookshelves lined every wall, and the only light came from four light stones hanging from the ceiling.

Upon seeing the young expert Yan Xiaobao immediately recognized him from within the grave. This young man had once tried to stop him and his friend from leaving the core of the grave but eventually gave up.

Although Yan Xiaobao did not recognize his voice, his appearance was impossible to forget, and a sneer appeared on Yan Xiaobao’s lips.

"Yan Xiaobao greets the principal," he said respectfully, and Lao copied him. Initially, before he spoke, he bowed deeply in tribute. "Old Hui greets the principal." Looking at the child, Yan Xiaobao felt proud of him.

The Saint nodded, looking at Yan Xiaobao and the child. "At first, I thought you came to blackmail me." The Saint casually said while looking at Yan Xiaobao. "But seeing the child you brought, it seems I was wrong."

"Although there was some hostility in the grave, we need to remember the best choice for the Sun Kingdom now that the attack has ended," Yan Xiaobao shrugged and said. "I hold no grudge. I am here today to hear if you are willing to take my son as part of your academy."

"Your son?" The Saint raised an eyebrow. He had long ago received all the information about Yan Xiaobao, and this young man with gray hair had moved to Muchuan City, with no mention of a son. In fact, it was mentioned that he was a very young expert, but here he was with a child he referred to as his son.

"This is Old Hui. He is about nine years old and has reached the Master level. I believe the Royal Academy can provide guidance, and there are excellent teachers here to help him improve his foundation."

Yan Xiaobao said, at which the 9-year-old principal became so shocked he suddenly stood up, his eyes wide open, mouth half open. "A 9-year-old Master?!" he exclaimed. Seeing the shocked principal, Yan Xiaobao nodded. "Although he reached an incredible high level at such a young age, he is no longer allowed to advance further. After reaching such a level, he needs to establish his foundation so he can move forward in the future," Yan Xiaobao said. "I am proud of my son, but I am not his ideal teacher. If he joins your school, I would not fear for his future."

The principal couldn’t help but smile as his school was praised by such an esteemed expert as Yan Xiaobao. Even the Royal Family had friendly relations with Yan Xiaobao.

"We would love to teach your son!" the principal quickly said. "It would be our honor to have such a genius join our academy."

Hearing the eagerness in the principal’s voice, both Yan Xiaobao and Lao were excited. Although Yan Xiaobao said Lao needed to focus on his foundation, the child was not offended or insulted; instead, he took it as a pointer on how to improve. He would follow anything Yan Xiaobao told him.
