Chapter 243
##243fury. When we go back, as much as we went through
A dusky dawn that hasn't dawned yet.
“Have you packed all your luggage??”
In response to Namgungsu’s blunt question, the Cheongryong Academy instructors gathered in front of the main gate nodded..
In fact, preparations to go back were already over..
Training for new instructors became meaningless after the day the Namgung family was attacked, so they could have left a few days ago..
However, the new instructors at Cheongryong Academy deliberately stayed at Namgung House and filled the training period..
Why do I stay??
-There are a few days left in the training period. If I go back quickly, it will only add work.?
As always, it started with Baek Su-ryong..
And the other instructors, who clearly understood what Baek Soo-ryong said, also began to force him..
-That's right! There's still time left, so there's no reason to go first.!
-Now let’s do self-training, self-training..
-Hmm. I had an epiphany while fighting this time.…….
Everyone stayed in the Namgung family making ridiculous excuses..
and for a few days.
The instructors cleaned up corpses, cared for the injured, and did chores to help the Namgung family, which was short on manpower..
Namgungsu knew very well that they were making excuses..
“……thanks.”
The new instructors grinned at Namgoongsu’s words, which were still blunt but sincere. The gradually dawning sunlight warmly illuminated their faces..
Seven-day new instructor training.
It was a short time, but it was enough for a deep bond to develop between them..
“I'm feeling pretty good?”
In response to Baek Soo-ryong’s question, Nam Gung-su nodded with a pale face that didn’t look okay at all..
The poison from the blood spirit has been detoxified, but the aftereffects still remain..
It was because I was busy working and saying I would clean up after work without taking a proper break..
Other instructors also looked at Namgoongsu with worried expressions..
“How about resting at home for a few more days??”
“We'll go on our own first, so you can get some rest and then come back..”
“I will tell the owner well..”
“Don’t be stubborn for no reason.…….”
Despite everyone telling him to recover and come back, Namgungsu insisted on returning to the Cheongryong Hall together..
“I have a lot of classes to go back and prepare for..”
Everyone shook their heads at that stubborn attitude..
In particular, Baek Soo-ryong clicked his tongue as if listening. Now it was a direct match..
“Leave it alone. Who can stop that stubborn idiot? I have to fall down once to come to my senses..”
“……It's noisy.”
If it weren't for my family's benefactor... … Namgungsu muttered to himself and turned around..
“Just two things.”
I deliberately decided to leave early in the morning..
This was because the Namgung family had not yet recovered from the aftereffects and did not want to make a fuss by announcing that they were leaving..
But even though they said they would be careful, there were quite a few people who came out to see them off..
“wait for a sec!”
“Please wait a moment!”
I turned around when I heard a call from behind, and familiar faces appeared..
“hmm?”
They were the instructors of Suzaku Academy and Baekho Academy..
Among them, Sima Ying and Tang Baihu quickly walked towards us..
Looking at his gaze, it seemed like Baek Su-ryong had some business to do..
“……Let's say hello before we leave.”
After saying that, Namgungsu let out a small sigh..
From the other side, Namgung Sega also appeared. Next to him was Namgung Mi..
“Should I have just run away at night?…….”
Namgungsu let out a small sigh and walked towards his father who motioned for him to come over. With a very troubled expression.
Meanwhile, Sima Ying and Tang Baekho approached Baeksu Rong..
But isn't there something shiny in their hands?.
“take this.”
Tang Baek-ho said, scratching the back of his head as if embarrassed..
What he handed over was a golden plaque the size of half a palm, with the words ‘Sacheondangmun (四川唐門)’ elaborately engraved in the middle..
Baek Soo-ryong recognized what the gold plate was and asked with a surprised expression..
“this… … Is this really a return favor??”
plaque of gratitude).
As the saying goes, it is a sign with the meaning of 'I will definitely repay the favor', and the more it is a favor from a prestigious political faction, the more its value goes beyond imagination..
If it was a reward plaque from the Four Heavenly Tang Gate, its value could not even be compared to a treasure worth a thousand gold..
This is because if Baeksu-ryong returns this gift card and asks for something, Tangga must grant the request..
The name of a prestigious political faction is that heavy..
Therefore, even if you are the savior of life, you will not give out a token of gratitude carelessly..
“Actually, I thought about it a lot..”
Tang Baihu said with a serious expression..
“If you had just saved my life, I wouldn't have given it to you. I'm sorry, but my life isn't worth exchanging for a reward..”
“But why?”
“Because all of my classmates owe me their lives. If you hadn't come then, we would all have died there..”
“…….”
The white water dragon looked at the white tiger..
Throughout the training period, Baekho Academy showed a strong bond and unity centered around Tang Baekho..
Although they did not show much success during this training, it was impressive how they stayed together and did not give up even under adverse conditions..
“It's a precious item, so don't use it carelessly..”
“I'll use it where you really need it..”
Baek Su-ryong smiled and placed the Sacheon Dangmun’s reward plaque in his arms. There was bound to be a place that would come in handy someday..
“Get this too.”
After waiting for his turn, Sima Ying held out a reward card with a subtle red glow..
On her gratitude plaque, only one word, 'Yeom (炎)', was engraved in a single stroke..
“My grandfather said that someday there would be a man to give this to... … . I never imagined I would write like this..”
Sima Ying muttered, looking at the rewarder with a strange expression. He had a shy expression that was out of his usual way..
But Baek Soo-ryong was even more surprised by the star name that just came out of her mouth..
“It's King Yeom's repayment.?”
The owner of the reward plaque was Sima Yong's grandfather, the former teenage master and owner of the Jujak Academy, King Yan..
In some ways, it is a more valuable and useful item than the Sacheondangmun’s gratitude plaque..
Sima Ying nodded..
“My grandfather made just one thing in his life. He told me to give it to the person who saved my life someday.…….”
The instructors who were looking at the reward card behind Baek Soo-ryong opened their eyes in surprise..
“Sacheondangmun and King Yeom’s revenge flag.…….”
“Both are treasures that cannot be obtained even with a thousand gold coins.!”
“Did water dragon brother save martial arts in his past life??”
“Well, I secretly wonder if we also have a small stake in that charity.…….”
These were the words of Myeong Il-oh, Ak Yeon-ho, Zhuge Shao-yeong, and Kwak Du-yong in order..
Baek Soo-ryong also had a dumbfounded reaction..
In fact, if it is a compensation, it has already been received in abundance from the Namgung family..
I received so much money that I couldn't take it with me as a voucher, and I also received elixir to feed my disciples..
Permission was granted to view the martial arts of the Namgung family as much as desired, except for martial arts of the direct lineage of the head of the family. Of course, taking it outside was prohibited..
Here, the owner of the Namgung family recently declared to an investigation team from the Murim Alliance that ‘Cheongryong Credit Union is the benefactor of the Namgung family.’.
I got everything I wanted when I left the Blue Dragon Academy..
‘no. Got a lot more than I bargained for.’
Baek Su-ryong thought as he looked at the two reward cards in his hands..
It was an unexpected additional reward..
I felt like the compensation was too excessive at this level..
Of course, I had no intention of refusing it..
Baek Soo-ryong grinned as he took King Yeom's reward card in his arms..
“thanks.”
“……and.”
Sima Ying seemed to have something more to say. She spoke cautiously..
“……It's a bet we made.”
A bet that went haywire as training for new instructors was halted..
-Let's make a bet. Of the two of us, the one with the lower training score will transfer to the other school..
In fact, Baek Soo-ryong had almost forgotten about it, but it seemed that Sima Ying was still concerned about the bet..
Sima Ying continued speaking with a determined expression..
“I'll be honest. If the training had continued, there is a high probability that I would have lost the bet..”
“I would definitely lose.”
When Baek Soo-ryong said with a grin, Sima Young responded with a sullen expression..
“It's not unconditional. Even if that were the case, admitting defeat doesn't suit my temperament.!”
Seeing Sima Ying getting upset, Baek Soo-ryong chuckled as if it was cute..
“What do you want to say? Since I can't admit it, let's call it a draw.?”
“no. Let's continue the bet..”
For a moment, Baek Soo-ryong’s eyes lit up as if he was interested..
“how?”
“In Emperor Tianwu. Similarly, how about the one with the lower grades changing jobs??”
“Hmm…….”
At first glance, it seemed like a very unfavorable bet for Baek Soo-ryong, a member of the Blue Dragon Academy..
Jujak Academy has been in second place for the past few years, and Cheongryong Academy has been in last place every year..
However, no one present thought that Baek Soo-ryong was at a disadvantage in the bet..
It was a strange thing..
On the contrary, I think Sima Ying’s courage in proposing a bet is amazing..
Except for Sima Ying, of course..
“If I lose this bet, I will go to Cheongryong Academic Center to take the entrance exam next year..”
“Hmm…….”
“Mo, if you don’t believe me, I’ll at least write a memorandum.!”
Sima Ying swallowed his saliva and looked at Baek Su-ryong..
She still wanted White Water Dragon.
If I could just bring Baeksu-ryong to the Suzaku Academy, I was confident that I would win the Heavenly War Emperor within five, or even three, years..
However, even if you think about it, betting on Tianwu Emperor's performance was too advantageous for the Suzaku Academy..
Even if Baek Soo-ryong refused, it was inevitable..
‘But if this man…….’
Wouldn't even a bet like this be acceptable??
It was when Sima Ying looked at Baek Su-ryong with half worry and half anticipation..
“That bet. I don't accept it.”
Baek Soo-ryong smiled and nodded..
Sima Ying asked back in disbelief..
“……Really?”
“If I don’t believe you, should I at least write a memorandum??”
“no. I will believe it.”
I wanted to receive a memorandum, but I couldn't bring myself to write a memorandum to the person who saved my life..
Baek Soo-ryong smiled and said as if he could clearly see her thoughts..
“Prepare for the test in advance. Starting next year, the competition rate will increase and it may drop..”
“Wow, unlucky.…….”
Sima Ying, who was looking at Baek Su-ryong with an expression of bewilderment, soon started laughing..
So the bet between the two was extended to 1,000,000 won..
“By the way, how about having a joint class next time??”
While the two were talking, Tang Baek-ho, who had stepped aside for a moment, joined the conversation again..
Fortunately, both people responded positively..
“Joint class is good.”
“We like it too.”
The three briefly exchanged various opinions about joint classes..
At first there were only three of us, but soon other instructors joined in and a lively discussion ensued..
Blue Dragon, Suzaku, White Tiger.
They met as competitors and their first impressions were not good, but when it was time to part ways, gentle smiles appeared on their faces..
It was because we went through life and death together and had each other's backs..
Although it was shorter than any other year, new instructor training was more intense than ever..
Now that the instructors have returned to their respective academic institutions, their experiences will be passed on to the students..
All the instructors said with their eyes shining..
“It will be different during joint classes..”
“When I go back, I'll have to first kill my students..”
“Hehe. I'm already feeling itchy..”
“These bastards. You must be fooling around by now.…….”
The sight of competitors burning with motivation is not something to welcome, but strangely enough, a smile did not leave Baek Soo-ryong's face..
“good. When we go back, let's give the kids as much experience as we experienced..”
Then the instructors started laughing darkly, like villains who had gathered to plot a plot..
“Huhuhu…….”
In this way, the difficult future of the students of Suzaku Academy and Baekho Academy was decided..
