Chapter 167
##167fury. I study starting today
After the general lecturer meeting, Baek Soo-ryong went straight to the governor's office and met with Noh Gun-sang..
“It’s been a long time since I sat face to face with Mr. Baek like this..”
“I've been busy with work, so things have been tense..”
“Heh heh. It's good for me that Mr. Baek is busy. It's a pity that it's hard to see your face often..”
“…….”
Baek Soo-ryong quietly looked at the face of Noh Kun-sang, who was smiling softly..
His prayer felt different again..
‘Was it originally this strong? or not… … Have you had any recent achievements?.’
Is it because the Reverse Heavenly Demonic Art has reached the level of 7 stars?.
The prayer of the Roh soldiers sitting close to each other felt powerful again. There was a lot of pressure I had never felt before..
‘If I fight with Noh now…….’
At that moment, the corners of Roh’s mouth slowly rose..
“you. Now you're measuring me?”
“Oh, stop without thinking. sorry.”
“It's okay. I can't believe your martial arts skills have become so strong. It is indeed the Hongbok of the Blue Dragon Academy..”
Noh Gun-sang picked up the tea cup in front of him, took a sip, and then asked. The voice was very serious..
“First of all, would you like to tell me what happened in the evil song? I've heard all kinds of rumors, but I want to hear it from you..”
“yes. First of all, let me tell you about the incident in Jeokhobang.…….”
It was something that had to be reported to the governor..
Baek Soo-ryong confessed everything, starting with Jeokhobang, the evil-in-gok, the blood beast Gwiong, and the fight with the Nine-Eum Witch..
Of course, I didn't tell everything honestly..
All stories related to blood religion were omitted, and even the story related to the Nine-Eum Witch, all parts related to ice crystals were omitted..
Nevertheless, it was enough to surprise Noh Gun-sang..
“her! Are you saying that they even defeated the Nine Eum Witch? I haven't even heard of it through rumors.!”
Noh expressed his admiration several times during the story, and when it ended, he tapped his knees and nodded..
“A lot has happened in that short period of time. In your hands are the White-Haired Demon Beast, the Blood Beast Gwiong, and the Nine-Eum Witch. Doesn’t that mean that three of the martial arts exploits fell??”
“hmm. Come to think of it, I see..”
“No, this person is now!”
After making such a great achievement, he himself appears to be not very impressed.!
Noh Gun-sang burst out laughing at Baek Soo-ryong’s perplexed appearance..
“You, who are no different from the first martial artist, are so calm even though you destroyed the evil Gok and defeated three martial arts enemies? This is Won, the nickname ‘Cheongryong Credit Union’ is really not excessive..”
“That's too much praise..”
On the contrary, Baek Soo-ryong showed a slightly embarrassed expression..
I forced myself to smile at the compliments from the Prime Minister, but I wasn't actually that happy..
‘Making a name for yourself isn't necessarily a good thing..’
Making a name for yourself in martial arts meant having more enemies..
In other words, it was said that there could be more troublesome things in the future..
‘The blood cult might be keeping an eye on me..’
Baek Soo-ryong vowed that from now on he would refrain from doing anything that would attract attention as much as possible. He also carefully asked Noh Gunsang to do so..
“I only told the story about the Nine-Eum Witch to the governor. I don't want anyone to know except my students and the administrator..”
“Are you saying you didn't report it to the Murim Alliance? why?”
Noh asked with an expression of incomprehension..
Baek Soo-ryong answered as he had thought in advance..
“…… This is because it is related to student Yeo Min’s personal history. I hope the Murim Alliance doesn't ask the kid about this and that because they're going to investigate in detail. Because I've already suffered enough..”
In addition, there was a reason that Baek Soo-ryong himself did not want to become famous anymore, but he did not say it..
Noh Gun-sang’s expression was beyond admiration..
“her. Reducing the number of balls that would not be enough even if they were inflated for the sake of students... … . This time I got to see you again. I thought my personality was lacking compared to my skills..”
“Yeah, well… … Yes?”
I think I just heard something wrong.?
When Baek Soo-ryong tilted his head, No Gun-sang quickly nodded..
“Ah! I will take this secret of mine with me to the grave! Even if there's a knife to my throat, I won't speak!”
‘What else to the grave…….’
Anyway, I was glad that Noh's response was good..
The atmosphere, which was slightly tense in the beginning, has completely eased off..
“Heh heh. Now I see that the man in front of me is not an instructor at Cheongryong Academy, but a rising new expert at Moorim..”
“Huh. It's embarrassing if you keep saying things like that. Honestly, I was very lucky.”
“Why don't you give up your job as an instructor and go to the martial arts world and become a charlatan??”
Baek Soo-ryong's body trembled in disgust at the thought of Noh Gun-sang's joke..
“I hate sleeping in the cold wind now..”
“Puhahaha! I thought you would answer that way.!”
The two chatted for a while..
But there was another story I really wanted to hear about Baek Soo-ryong..
He waited for the atmosphere to warm up and naturally asked:.
“Mr. Gwanju. The Cheonmuje rule is said to have changed this year. Could you please tell me in more detail??”
It will be organized later and an announcement will be made in writing, but Baek Soo-ryong wanted to hear about the contents as soon as possible..
Isn’t it important to know so you can prepare in advance?.
“This was the goal from the beginning. Somehow, he came straight to the governor’s office..”
“haha… … . Let's do it together.”
Noh Gun-sang chuckled and continued speaking..
“Let me tell you one by one. First of all, the culture evaluation is literally an evaluation of the culture that a military person should have..”
“If it's cultured…….”
“We will examine martial arts history and basic studies, including poetry, calligraphy, and painting, which have been neglected in favor of martial arts training. If you take a written exam twice every semester and your average score does not exceed the passing score, you will not be able to participate in the Cheonmu Festival..”
“Is there any reason to go that far? In an academy that teaches martial arts,…….”
Baek Soo-ryong looked somewhat unconvinced. Noh Gun-sang answered firmly..
“We are not an academy that only teaches martial arts. It is a place where the power of the martial arts faction is raised. Culture is character. If we raise a master without proper character, it could be a disaster for martial arts. The goal of Odaegwan is to cultivate experts who possess both ability and character. Aren’t we a political faction?.”
At that moment, Baek Soo-ryong wanted to say this.
‘Sorry, I'm from Sapa..’
But since I could never say that, I just smiled awkwardly..
“That's right. When it comes to political factions, personality is more important than anything else. Character development through liberal arts classes. All right.”
“Don't worry. If you have at least some common sense and a little effort, you will be able to pass..”
Noh Gun-sang said that the liberal arts assessment test would be the easiest among the three evaluation items..
But Baek Soo-ryong was not at ease at all..
“Can we expect the least from them?…….”
“Who are you talking about??”
“no. what is the second?”
Noh Gun-sang looked at him with an expression that seemed like he was looking at all the boring people, and then continued speaking..
“Second, the peer activity evaluation will reflect your usual class attitude, school activities, club activities, etc. and give you a score at the end of the year. It is important to build up your network on a regular basis. Also, those who have less than a certain score cannot participate in the Cheonmu Festival..”
White Water Dragon sighed softly..
‘class attitude?’
There was nothing to ask. In the first place, it was a supplementary class for only problem children..
And not once did I see the assholes from Baekryongjang hanging out with students other than us..
As befits a bunch of idiots, their relationship with friends was a mess. Who would want to play with those guys?.
‘It's ruined. It's ruined.’
When Noh Gun-sang saw Baek Soo-ryong’s cloudy eyes, he clicked his tongue..
“Your expression is getting worse. Anyway, let me know about the last remaining consultation evaluation..”
“yes…….”
“This is connected to practical classes. The score is given based on what kind of cooperation you do outside of the academy..”
For the first time, Baek Soo-ryong’s expression brightened..
“For example… … Does this include fighting against the wicked in the Wicked Valley??”
“yes. Your students have already earned big points. It will be reflected in the consultation evaluation..”
At least one of the three assessments seemed like nothing to worry about.
‘Practices will be held more often in the future. You can earn a lot of points in the consultation evaluation..’
The problem was the evaluation of liberal arts and peer activities..
We must somehow secure the minimum score in both evaluations..
“This year, after combining these three assessments, only students who meet all the criteria will be eligible to participate in the Cheonmu Festival..”
“…….”
Baek Soo-ryong lowered his head for a moment and was lost in thought..
The conditions are the same for all students at Odaegwan..
There was nothing particularly disadvantageous to the Blue Dragon Academy..
‘……But there's no way that all geniuses at other academic institutions are like this.?’
Baek Soo-ryong suppressed the sigh that was about to burst out..
Nothing will change if you say something weak here..
You must adapt to the changed rules and quickly devise a response strategy..
Nogunsang looked at him with strange eyes and asked:.
“Do you have any more questions??”
“doesn't exist.”
Baek Su-ryong raised his head and answered with a confident face..
“It just worked out well. Everyone already thought that mental discipline was lacking..”
“also! You are always so confident..”
* * *
“……It's an emergency.”
Baek Soo-ryong’s expression was serious. It was completely different from when I spoke with Mr. Roh just a few o'clock ago..
As soon as he returned to Baekryongjang, he immediately summoned his disciples and informed them of the changed regulations of Emperor Tianwu..
“Suddenly, it's a liberal arts test.?”
“What is the peer activity evaluation? I don't have any friends…….”
“Me too, me too.”
The disciples, who didn't feel the seriousness, just stared blankly at Baek Su-ryong..
Only Geo Sang-woong, the only one who had ever visited the Heavenly Emperor, looked a little surprised..
“Certainly, there have been a lot of accidents at Cheonmuje recently. Since I was always picking in the order of strongest martial arts... … . People with different personalities gathered together..”
Geo Sang-woong looked around at his juniors who would not bow down no matter what their character was..
“teacher. I think we're in big trouble.?”
“……First, let’s take a look at the written test..”
Baek Soo-ryong distributed the test papers he had prepared to his students..
It was a written exam on basic liberal arts for each grade level that was taken last year. Subjects included writing, martial arts theory, martial arts history, etc..
“Is it like this?.”
“Easy, easy.”
“teacher. You're not ignoring us too much.?”
Everyone was snorting and skimming through the test papers, so even Baek Soo-ryong had some expectations..
It took less than half an hour for everyone to submit their test papers..
Baek Soo-ryong read one common question on everyone's test papers..
“Let's see. What is the most important thing in becoming a master?…….”
It was a simple question asking about one's mindset as a military officer, and the answers were very telling..
“money, family name, muscle?”
When Baek Soo-ryong looked up from the exam paper and glared at his students, they all avoided his gaze..
“Hey you idiots!”
baba bak babak!
Baek Soo-ryong rolled up the test paper and hit his students on the back of the head. His skill was like lightning, no one could avoid it..
“Wow!”
“Kuek!”
Baek Su-ryong sighed in front of his disciples who were drooping like frogs. There were numerous hatches drawn on the rolled-up test paper..
“I was a fool for expecting you.”
It was certain. These idiots clearly had no history of studying in their lives..
There was no law that a genius in martial arts was a genius in other areas..
Rather, since he is a martial arts genius, everyone would have overlooked it even if he had neglected other parts..
‘I guess I should reflect a little too..’
There was nothing wrong with what Noh said..
If you focus too much on martial arts, your perspective will become narrow and your personality will become narrow-minded and single-minded..
This was to some extent the reason why the warriors of Sapa were mostly Anha warriors and frequently suffered from the evil spell..
“It was better. Anyway, I won't be able to practice martial arts as hard for a while as I'm treating my injuries. I can make use of my spare time..”
“yes?”
“what…….”
Baek Soo-ryong decided to think positively..
These guys already have strong vessels..
If you also have mental training, it will help you improve your martial arts skills in the long run..
“For that reason, starting today, we will all gather together and study..”
The disciples' complexions deteriorated rapidly. He seemed to think that martial arts training would be better..
