Chapter 502
502fury. Because it's not me?
After Wi Ji-cheon, Ju Yu-sang, and Yeon-ha clashed, a subtle atmosphere began to flow between the two schools..
In particular, the students at Jujak Academy were conscious of the students at Cheongryong Academy, whom they had not paid attention to before..
“Those guys…….”
“It's different from what I heard through rumors.?”
“It’s so different from when I saw it before.?”
The two academies were moving around lightly, keeping an appropriate distance between them, and the expressions of the students at the Jujak academies as they kept glancing to the side were filled with a variety of complex emotions..
surprise and discomfort.
curiosity and vigilance.
With conflicting emotions, the students at Jujak Academy kept looking to the side and whispering. The same was true for the older students who met with Cheongryong Academy students at the last Cheonmu Festival..
No, rather, the older I was, the more confused I seemed by the unfamiliar appearance of Cheongryong Academy..
“What are you looking at? Did you see it? I want to die as a group?”
The palm of Yeomin's hand exploded on the back of Heonwon-gang, who was provoking the entire Jujak Hall with rolling eyes..
“Oh my, this burn! Don't argue for no reason, come here!”
“……Turn it off! I know you're getting more and more spicy?”
As Heon Wong-gang, with tears in his eyes, was dragged away by Yeo-min, Dok Go-jun sighed and took power against Sima Hyeon, the student council president of Jujak Hakwan. Almost every person was apologizing to each other..
“sorry. We will tell students to be careful about their words and actions..”
“no. We will caution you not to stare too intently..”
The student council presidents stepped forward and tried to lighten the mood somehow, but since the fight between Wi Ji-cheon and Yeon-ha ended in an awkward manner, the awkward atmosphere between both sides continued. But the instructors just watched the students and did nothing..
It was the same in the city where I stopped for a rest..
Instructors only gave students a few warnings and did not significantly restrict their behavior..
“Don't go too far, and at least go in pairs. After half a day's visit, we gather here again. Everybody knew?”
“yes!”
“The same goes for you. Those who are already trying to start a fight with the kids from Jujak Academy, it's tradition and all, so I know they'll get a headache. Heonwon River. You heard it right?”
“yes!”
“I got it... … . Why are you saying this to me?…….”
Even though they learned martial arts from a young age, most of them are still young students..
The students, who were very excited about coming to play together, gathered together and dispersed, and the instructors also gathered to briefly discuss their future schedule..
“……Senior. sorry.”
Zhou Yuxiang, who had been greatly humiliated by Wei Zichian, bowed his head to Sima Xuan as if he had no shame..
“Eat. It'll cheer you up a bit..”
Sima Hyeon tapped his junior on the shoulder and held out the warm dumplings he had just bought at the stall. Tears of sadness filled Joo Yul-sang's eyes as she took a bite of the dumpling..
“Because I couldn’t go out… … . It has tarnished the reputation of Suzaku Academy... … . Ugh…….”
“I'm thirsty. Drink water too.”
Sima Hyun handed the canteen to his junior and sighed softly..
Joo Yul-sang said it was because he was not good, but in fact, the opponent was so strong that no matter who came forward, victory could not be guaranteed..
‘If it were me... … . Could I have won??’
Sima Xuan was the grandson of King Yan and the younger brother of Sima Ying..
He learned one of the world's most outstanding martial arts techniques directly from King Yan, and was equipped with extraordinary qualities and sincerity..
Among the latter-day exponents of the Suzaku Hakkan, Gi Ki-gi is considered to be one of the three most outstanding martial artists, and is not inferior in comparison to the latter-day exponents of the Cheonmu Hakkan..
However, even Sima Xuan's expression darkened when he remembered Wei Ji-tian's sword that overpowered Zhou Yul-sang..
‘Even if I had blocked it, I wouldn't have been able to block it as easily as Yeonha..’
If Yeonha, the secret weapon of the Jujak Academy, had not stepped forward to give it to him, the problem would have escalated with Juyulsang being seriously injured or even the instructors getting involved..
“Yulsang. This is the Wijicheon you dealt with earlier.…….”
The moment he was about to ask his junior who was directly facing Wei Zichian's sword, Sima Xuan's expression hardened slightly when he sensed someone approaching from afar..
“Especially in times like this…….”
Blue Dragon Omang was walking towards where they were. The sight of him approaching with great strides, led by the Heonwon River, was very combative..
‘I can't believe I'm holding a grudge over what happened earlier.?’
There were no instructors nearby or Dok Go-jun to mediate the fight..
It would have been reassuring to have at least a junior senior, but right now, the only one by Sima Hyeon's side was Ju Yulsang, who had been beaten by Wei Ji-cheon and was cowering..
If that delinquent son of the Blue Dragon Academy has come to punish Joo Yul-sang,?
“Seo, senior?”
“……don't worry.”
Even though I was an ugly junior, I couldn't just watch them suffer as the student council president..
Sima Hyeon, with a solemn resolve, covered Zhou Yulsang with his body. Sparks flew slightly from the tips of his fingers, which were naturally lowered..
“I know you're angry about what happened earlier, but no further retaliation is possible.…….”
However, as if Sima Hyeon was not his concern, Heon Wongang walked past him and shouted towards the stall..
“Grandma! Give me all the dumplings here.!”
“…….”
Sima Hyeon, who had frozen in place, turned his eyes to look at the Heonwon River, and the old woman who was selling dumplings at the stall also twitched her eyes and said, as if she was surprised..
“All of this?”
“There aren't even a few. We'll be eating for five or seven people, so this should be enough..”
There were more than a hundred dumplings for sale at the stall, but Heonwon-gang looked a little disappointed..
While the old woman was putting the dumplings, Geo Sang-woong and Ya Su-hyeok came up next to her and said..
“Let’s set aside the dumpling death penalty..”
“One twenty? I guess that's not enough?”
“For now, only twenty here. You can go to another place and buy more. grandma. How much does it all cost??”
“flaw… … . This looks really delicious.”
While the three muscle idiots were happily drooling in front of the stall without even recognizing Sima Hyun, Yeo Min, who arrived a little late, sighed and apologized to Sima Hyun..
“I didn't come here to start a fight, so you don't have to be nervous. It's just that these fools rush at the sight of food..”
“ah…….”
It was my first time seeing white hair as white as snow right in front of me..
Sima Xuan's eyes widened for a moment, but then he realized it was rude and quickly took the gun..
“……no. I really had a misunderstanding..”
“Is your tone really that polite? Anyway, we are the same student..”
“Wow, it’s become a habit… … . sorry, sorry.”
“What do you have to apologize to me for??”
When Yeo-min laughed as if it was absurd, Sima-hyeon, who was embarrassed for no reason, lowered his head..
Meanwhile, Wi Ji-cheon was giving Joo Yul-sang a gift of reconciliation. The boy said as he held out Tanghulu, which was made by skewering hawthorn fruit..
“Are you okay with your injuries??”
“…….”
“sorry. I was a little excited earlier too... … . Is it tasty. I'll give you one.”
“…….”
“weird. I didn't hit him in the mouth... … . It's not like you can't speak because of the shock of losing to me.?”
“……Are you kidding me??”
I don't know if it was a proper reconciliation, but in any case, Ju Yul-sang eventually accepted Tang Hulu offered by Wi Ji-cheon..
Xuanwengang only paid attention to Sima Xuan after buying all the dumplings..
“uh? Dokgojun's friend?”
“We're not close enough to call ourselves friends, but…….”
“no? I thought they were close because they talked a lot..”
It's because of you guys.
Sima Xuan barely swallowed the words that were stuck in his throat..
Although he seems docile now, you never know when Cheongryong Omang, famous for being the most problematic child in the Cheongryong Academy, might change..
It was Sima Hyeon who often heard that his sister had a lot of unnecessary worries..
“Then we'll leave…….”
Sima Hyeon tried to escape from the scene with Zhou Yuxiang, but Heon Wongang did not let him go easily..
“hey! wait for a sec.”
Heonwongang handed out two warm dumplings to the two people who looked around nervously. Sima Xuan suddenly received it..
“Eat them one at a time. You couldn't buy it because we bought it all..”
“Wongang. I paid the money, so why are you paying for the favor??”
“Oh, really. I heard that I lost my pocket money a while ago and don't have a single penny.?”
“flaw. Buying that secret gift?”
“Don't be quiet!”
Heon Won-gang hurriedly bickered, trying to cover Geo Sang-yong's mouth, then looked back at Sima Hyeon and grinned..
“Anyway, let's have fun during the school trip. If we don't start a fight first, we'll stay calm..”
“……I think the same way.”
Heon Won-gang, who was grinning, patted Sima-hyeon's forearm and walked away, while Geo Sang-woong and Ya Su-hyeok, who were carrying a lot of dumplings, also waved and said to see them again next time..
Yeo- min gave a light greeting, and Wi Ji-cheon left a message to Joo Yul-sang that they would spar with swords again next time, which made Joo Yul-sang feel cold and then left..
Sima Xuan muttered as he looked blankly at the back of the Qinglong Five Mang that was moving away..
“They're strange guys.”
“That's right…….”
Although it was less than an inch of time, it seemed as if Cheongryonggomang had completely sucked the energy out of him, and Sima Hyeon and Zhou Yulsang trudged back to the meeting point with tired looks on their faces..
In their hands were dumplings that were still warm..
* * *
The strange thing at the Blue Dragon Museum was not just the Blue Dragon Omang..
While leaving the city and heading back to their destination, the students of Suzaku Academy witnessed several unbelievable sights..
“teacher. It's heavy. Please lift this.!”
“Could you buy me some ice cream from the city we visited earlier??”
“Please let me draw even the picture I couldn’t draw!”
Cheongryonghakkwan's tradition of 'taking care of the teacher' seemed to stop after meeting Jujakhakkwan, but that was only for a moment..
There was too much accumulated over that time to miss the opportunity that comes once a year. Therefore, the time has come to hire teachers again, starting with the upper grades..
The students at Jujak Academy were astonished at the shocking sight..
“……What are they doing??”
“How can you be so rude to your teachers?!”
“Shit, it’s okay to treat the Ten Lords like that.?”
“Do all the Blue Dragon Academy guys have multiple lives?…….”
Even King Yeom, who was unfazed by most things, was speechless at the atrocities committed by students everywhere..
“Group ivory. Is there no up or down in the Cheongryong Academy??”
“Heh heh. It is our Cheongryong Academy’s unique field trip tradition..”
“What kind of tradition is this?…….”
Although it's a tradition, it's actually not that old..
At first, it was simply to boost student morale..
-Cheer up! If I just go on this school trip, it's Cheonmu Festival.!
-This time, I have to show the other academies an example.!
-Is it hard? The teacher will carry your luggage, so let’s go comfortably..
Since Cheongryong Academy had been in last place for several years, the students' enthusiasm was bound to decline as the Cheonmu Festival approached..
Because of this, even when going on a field trip or on a field trip to practice or have fun, people would sigh, and it became a tradition for instructors to try to cheer up students so that they could gain some strength..
King Yeom frowned upon hearing that story..
“……I was wondering what kind of eccentricity it was, and there was a salty story behind it..”
“Heh heh. It's also fun to watch in its own way. Please try Jujakhakgwan later.?”
“joy. It is a tradition that can never be created in the Suzaku Academy..”
A man cautiously approached the two old men with their backs to them as they chatted with their backs to each other, with a somewhat stern expression..
“It's me, Lord Gwanju. Maybe you remember me…….”
“It's Dooyong..”
Kwak Doo-yong’s eyes widened. He had no idea that King Yan would recognize him so easily, even though it had been nearly twenty years since he graduated from Suzaku Academy..
“Did you remember??”
“You bastard. Of course I remember. I was waiting for you to come to say hello..”
King Yan chuckled. For a moment, pain flashed across his face, but few people noticed it..
“I thought you wouldn't remember…….”
“Did you think I already had dementia? I remember the faces and names of all the graduates. He said he became an instructor at Cheongryong Academy.?”
“haha. yes. you're right! Originally, I was planning to apply to Suzaku Academy.…….”
“Teacher Kwak Doo-yong. Since I’m listening too, shouldn’t I be careful what I say??”
“Huh. Well, that's not what I meant.!”
Cheongryong Academy students and instructors alike looked on in amazement as they watched Kwak Doo-yong having a conversation with the governors..
“Teacher Kwak Doo-yong. He really was from Suzaku Academy.?”
“I thought it was a lie until now…….”
“There you guys! I can hear it all, these things!”
On the surface, it was a very peaceful schedule..
Because the movement was so large-scale, there were no bandits or warriors who dared to block them and start a fight..
“Um, Mr. Namgoongsu’s brother? It's been a while.”
“……This is Namgung Hak..”
The instructors of Cheongryong Academy and Jujak Academy, who were in full communication with each other, talked and shared information, and the students chatted among themselves nonstop..
The atmosphere started to get weird when we started to speed up little by little because it was a bit later than originally planned..
“Shouldn't we arrive sooner than the Blue Dragon Academy??”
“……of course.”
“The kids at Jujak Academy are running.?”
“That's a provocation on us, right??”
Until then, the students, who had only been aware of each other and looked at each other like cows and chickens, began to speed up in earnest as if competing..
Especially in narrow streets, one side had to take the lead, and each time that happened, the school building behind had no choice but to get covered in a little dust..
“Cough! Cough! Those kids created dust on purpose, right??”
“hey! Put everything aside!”
As we were going back and forth ahead of each other, the speed was gradually increasing..
Doo doo doo doo!
And then before we knew it, everyone was gritting their teeth and running..
“……Why are they like that??”
“Just youth…….”
The instructors, who were puzzled at first, were now running after the students. Because they didn't want to see the students they teach lose..
* * *
“I really didn't do anything? They caught fire among themselves and started running like crazy people..”
“Are you asking me to believe that??”
“It's crazy, really. They think I always cause accidents?”
“My history so far explains a lot..”
Baek Soo-ryong tried to protest with a face full of resentment, but it didn't even work for Nam Gung-su..
Around them, half-exhausted students were lying down and out of breath. It was the reward for running to the evil family’s home at a full sprint..
The attacker's commotion was put to rest thanks to Namgungsu's explanation. The dancers of the music school looked at the students with an expression as if they were seeing something strange, but instructors were moving around and taking care of the students..
“If there is excessive competition among students, we cannot stop it.…….”
“The owners are the most excited and run, but that is stopped.?”
“…….”
Namgungsu, who was silent for a moment, quietly asked:.
“……So, who won?”
It seems he was curious about the outcome of the confrontation..
Baek Su-ryong, who was laughing, lowered his voice and said.
“We almost came in together, but when I saw them running together,…….”
However, Baek Soo-ryong’s words did not continue. It was because of a huge presence coming from inside..
Jeez. Jeopuk.
When a middle-aged man with magnificent bones appeared, everyone's eyes turned to him. He was the Ten Honorable Men of the current generation and the greatest queen in the world..
Ae Fei did not hide his strength. A long spear was tied diagonally to his back, and there were countless small wounds on his neck and arms that were not hidden by his uniform..
He exuded the dignity of a general who had lived his entire life on the battlefield. It was a presence that made even students who had collapsed from exhaustion hesitate to get up..
“Meet Mr. King Yeom.”
When Yue Fei took the first hand, King Yan waved his beard and accepted the greeting..
“It's been a while. Thank you for willingly lending me the space..”
“You are welcome. Think of it as your home and use it comfortably..”
Yue Fei turned his head and looked at Lu Junsang. He took the reins again.
“Meet the head of Cheongryonghak..”
“……It's been a while.”
At that moment, the expressions of the Cheongryong Academy instructors hardened..
Just now, Yue Fei called King Yan by adding 'Senior' to his nickname, and referred to Lu Gunsang simply as 'Cheongryonghakgwanju.' The attitude itself seemed similar, but there was a clear difference in the underlying respect for the other person..
However, if it is trivial, it can be said to be trivial, so it is an ambiguous level to point out..
Even now, the expression on the face of the person in question, Noh Gun-sang, was calm, but King Yeom next to him had an angry look on his face..
“you. What are you doing now??”
“yes? What are you saying?…….”
When Yue Fei made a puzzled expression, Lu Junsang smiled and grabbed his arm..
“Heh heh. The students will be tired, so let them rest quickly. What's so important about small talk?.”
“Okay…….”
“Get ready right away..”
Yue Fei turned his gaze this time towards Baek Su-ryong..
“You are the Blue Dragon Credit Union. Indeed, the leader seems worthy of approval..”
A meeting of world-class experts representing the current generation.
Yue Fei examined Baeksu Rong’s prayer and nodded as if satisfied..
“After the leader recognized you as the new Malstone of the Ten Lords, I really wanted to meet you at least once. Nice to meet an outstanding junior..”
He looked like a martial arts hero, but his implicit sense of authority and arrogance was unpleasant to Baek Soo-ryong..
Moreover, the attitude shown to Noh Gun-sang just moments ago was also the same..
“This is Baek Su-ryong..”
In response, Baek Soo-ryong also showed courtesy to his opponent and took a gun..
“However, from the first meeting, you keep emphasizing the small stone and the small stone.…….”
Baek Soo-ryong glanced up and down at the head of the Shandong music family, then tilted his head..
“well. I don't think so anymore.?”
“……!”
At that tremendous provocation, King Chang was speechless and his eyes widened..
