The unexpected arrival of the final new instructor candidate left everyone speechless.
Sorry Im late. Im Baek Su-Ryong, he said.
His clothes were covered in dust, and his body reeked of gunpowder.
Baek Su-Ryong brushed off the dust, then smiled and asked, The demonstration lectures arent over yet, right?
A flurry of replies ensued.
Hyung-nim!
Baek-hyung!
Y-You damned punk!
Ak Yeon-Ho, Myeong Il-Oh, and Mae Geuk-Lyom, who had been anxiously waiting for Baek Su-Ryong, shouted at the sa ti. All three of them looked like they wanted to rush over and reprimand him, but before they could do anything, Kwak Cheol-Woo yelled, Candidate Baek Su-Ryong, why are you so late?
Sothing important ca up, and I was delayed.
Then what the hell was with the way you ca here?!
I was pressed for ti, so I borrowed the power of gunpowder I flew around five hundred feet through the air, and Im a little dizzy.
You used e-explosives?
Read this at , or else.
An acquaintance of mine is an expert in explosives, so asked him for help
Ugh Exasperated, Kwak Cheol-Woo buried his head in his hands, feeling a headache coming on.
Beside him, Namgoong Su glared at Baek Su-Ryong coldly. Is that the attitude a latecor should have?
You asked, so I answered.
Namgoong Sus icy gaze clashed with Baek Su-Ryongs nonchalant expression.
Seeing this, Kwak Cheol-Woo shouted, Theres no question about it, youre eliminated
Puhahaha! Damn, youre funny! Noh Gun-Sang, the principal of the Azure Dragon Academy roared, cutting off Kwak Cheol-Woo mid-sentence. The old man, well over eighty years old, burst into tears with laughter.
I havent seen such an entertaining sight since becoming the principal of the Azure Dragon Academy. Young Master Baek, are you ready for your lecture?
P-Principal, no! Weve already decided to eliminate him
I am the Principal.
Noh Gun-Sang silenced Kwak Cheol-Woo with a reminder of his authority, then looked back at Baek Su-Ryong with childlike eyes. Young Master Baek, sothing seems to have changed since the last ti I saw you. I presu you have an exciting presentation lined up?
This is a non-profit translation. Ads? What ads?
Yeah, Ill definitely show you sothing good. Baek Su-Ryong grinned confidently and surveyed the audience.
About ten students were staring at him with puzzled, curious, or outright hostile expressions.
Oh? I see so familiar faces.
Hyonwon Kang was glaring at him like a ferocious beast, while Peng Sa-Hyuks eyes glittered with murderous intent.
And then there was the girl with the sparkling, passionate gaze.
Wasnt she the vice president of the student council?
Tang So-So was staring at Baek Su-Ryong just as intensely as the previous two (but sohow felt more dangerous).
Even herbreathing was a little rough.
Err, whats with her? Im scared!
Baek Su-Ryong avoided eting Tang So-Sos eyes and walked over to the students.
Since this is an Outer Arts class, Ive prepared a hands-on lesson so that we can have so fun together.
As Baek Su-Ryong approached, the students tensed. Despite being the last candidate, Baek Su-Ryong was not intimidated, but rather relaxed and laid back.
STEP, STEP.
This is a free translation. You should not be seeing ads.
As he walked, not only the students and instructors around the lecture platform, but also the students in the dormitories opened their windows one by one and stuck their heads out to watch him.
MURMUR MURMUR.
Whats going on? Whats the commotion?
A demonstration lecture? They havent ended yet? Whats so interesting about that
Hes the last applicant, and he flew in.
Heflew in? Are you talking about the legendary martial art, Walking on Air?
No, its not like that
Eh? Thats the handso teacher from last ti!
The eyes of the entire school focused on one individual.
Noh Gun-Sang felt a little envious. It that a talent Or is it intentional?
Baek Su-Ryong smiled gently and said, Since this is a hands-on class, I should give out prizes to the top participants, right?
His voice wasnt very loud. However, his enunciation was clear and easy to understand. His body language was not exaggerated, but every hand gesture and every movent of his eyes piqued the viewers welcos you.
It was like watching a well-choreographed sword dance.
The more Noh Gun-Sang looked at Baek Su-Ryong, the more he admired the young maning from a small town, hes probably never been at the receiving end of so much attention before. If so, then why does he look so comfortable, like hes done this countless tis before?
Its like watching Mr. Namgoongs class.
Suddenly curious about Namgoong Sus expression, Noh Gun-Sang turned his head to glance at him, only to find that Namgoong Sus had stiffened up.
Even the Star Instructor of the Azure Dragon Academy couldnt take his eyes off of Baek Su-Ryong.
This is a non-profit translation. There are no ads.
Since its our first class, Ive prepared a simple prize to liven things up.
A prize?
Baek Su-Ryong unsheathed his sword and drew a circle with a five-foot radius on the ground around himself. You have two minutes. Using only outer arts, force to take one step out of this circle. If you do, Ill give all of you a hundred silver coins.
!! Everyones eyes widened. A hundred silver coins was enough to feed an ordinary family for a year. Even if they were the children of rich murim clans, they could never lay their hands upon such a large sum.
Eh?
Is that true?
Then youre only using outer arts as well?
Baek Su-Ryong nodded. Of course. If you make use inner qi, I will also recognize that as my defeat.
The students exchanged looks with each other, reluctant to make the first move.
Baek Su-Ryong tapped the floor with his sword sheath and said, You only have two minutes, so the sooner you start attacking , the better
Hmph. Sounds interesting. While everyone was still hesitating, the troublemaker brat from the Hyonwon Clan rushed forward.
WHOOSH!
Baek Su-Ryong grinned as Hyonwon Kangs fist flew at his face. I just knew youd be the first one to charge in!
Why arent you reading this at ?
The next mont, Baek Su-Ryong reached out at lightning speed, grabbed Hyonwon Kang by the collar, and slamd him into the ground.
CRASH!
Keuk! Hyonwon Kang landed on his back and bounced once before laying down, motionless.
Take a short break and co back when you feel better. Baek Su-Ryong pushed the groaning Hyonwon Kang away with his foot, then looked at the remaining astonished students.
What? Did you think making money is easy?
