"Let me make it clear, from now on, you can only be good to the teacher and must not have any improper thoughts."
Tang Xin glared at Huang Ye.
"Alright, my dear Honey Teacher."
"Huang Ye, you were in a daze for seven years and have only been clear-headed for a short time. How did you become so powerful?"
"Teacher, it's a secret."
"It really is a secret. Does anyone else know about your strength?"
"The only ones who know are my two maids and you."
Tang Xin suddenly felt a little sweetness in her heart.
"So, apart from those two, I'm the person you trust the most?"
"Pretty much."
"Why do you trust me?"
"It's simple. I want you to become my woman."
"Forget it, you're just full of sweet talk, and you won't get past my father."
"Then I'll fight until he agrees," Huang Ye said, raising his fist.
"You little rascal, that's your future father-in-law," Tang Xin knocked on Huang Ye's head.
"If I don't agree either, will you fight until I do?"
"You don't need to fight. I'll tell you the benefits of becoming my woman, and you'll willingly throw yourself into my arms."
Tang Xin pouted, this little rascal was really shameless.
"Stop bragging. No one has been born yet who can make me willingly throw myself into their arms."
"You can fool those maids, but what benefits could there be in becoming your woman?"
"I won't tell you now, but it's a huge benefit, one that will make you laugh in your sleep."
"You really are a weirdo, with an inflated sense of confidence."
"A huge benefit, huh? I've lived this long and haven't seen a benefit that could move me."
"I suggest you tell me, or you can't imagine what I'll do."
"It's not that I can't tell you, but there are conditions."
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
"What conditions?"
Tang Xin was indeed very interested. This guy appeared out of nowhere and was a mystery. If she didn't know this benefit, she'd definitely lose her appetite.
"It's simple, exchange it for the Tang Sect's Poison Path and high-level hidden weapons manuals."
"Daydreaming! Even if I had them, I wouldn't trade them with you. They're the Tang family's secrets. If leaked, the Tang Sect would be ruined."
"Ha, a little Tang Sect, treating it like a treasure."
"Teacher, you can still trade now. In the future, even if you want to trade, I might not agree."
"There are plenty of women in the world. Why not give the benefits to someone willing to be with me?"
"Get lost, give it to whoever you want, I don't want it," Tang Xin kicked out.
"Whoosh!" Huang Ye was gone, and she kicked the air.
"Goodbye, Teacher!" Huang Ye waved from the doorway.
"Teacher, remember the huge benefit."
With that, he disappeared in a flash.
This little rascal just wants to trick me into giving him the poison techniques and hidden weapons. What huge benefit? Does he think I'm an idiot?
Though she said that, Huang Ye's words had already planted a seed in her heart.
Huang Ye naturally knew the power of that seed, especially for women, who are very curious by nature.
He himself was already a huge secret, and with this additional secret, it could definitely drive someone crazy.
After leaving the lecture hall, he planned to go to the internal skills class. He hadn't walked far when he noticed something unusual.
The tracking skill given by the System, he had studied it thoroughly.
At least in terms of basic tracking techniques, he was top-notch in this world.
With his 360-degree vision, those tracking him were naturally exposed.
He had already confirmed that there were two people following him from different directions, likely not working together.
Each walked separately, pretending to be strolling, but their eyes occasionally glanced at him.
The usefulness of this special ability was becoming more apparent, and he had underestimated it at first.
Arriving at the internal skills lecture hall, he saw there weren't many students attending, only seven or eight, all dressed plainly.
Huang Ye didn't recognize these students; they probably weren't from Old Hu's internal skills class.
Seeing the instructor at the front was a middle-aged man, Huang Ye hesitated for a moment and decided to listen in. It was probably a mediocre lecture, given the small audience.
Finding an empty seat at the back, he listened for a while and understood why there were so few attendees.
This middle-aged man was too long-winded, like an old lady's foot-binding cloth, both smelly and long.
Many of the points were explained vaguely, almost just reading from the book.
Truly, you get what you pay for. The same internal skills knowledge, but the old man made it lively and easy to understand.
Having already entered the lecture hall, it wouldn't be polite to leave halfway, so he continued listening.
After class, the instructor called Huang Ye over. Hearing Huang Ye's apologetic explanation, the instructor left disappointed.
Huang Ye approached a student.
"Excuse me, when does Instructor Hu's class take place?"
The student looked Huang Ye up and down.
"Instructor Hu's classes are in the morning, but they're expensive. People like us can't afford them."
"Judging by your attire, I'd suggest staying with Instructor Chen's class. That class is a dragon's den."
The student was well-meaning.
"Thank you, I know his classes are expensive, but they're also good. Since I'm here to learn, I want the best."
"Then I wish you success in your studies." With that, he turned and left, shaking his head as he walked.
The others also looked at Huang Ye with disdain.
Huang Ye thought about other subjects, but there didn't seem to be anything he needed to learn, so he decided to go back and train on his own.
Leaving the lecture hall, the people tracking him immediately followed.
These two, still sticking around, should I deal with them?
There didn't seem to be a reason. Those sent to track him probably weren't worth training against.
What methods might they use to attack me?
This place isn't suitable for assassination; they might find some excuse to provoke me and then challenge me.
That works too, I'll just wait for a chance.
The next morning, Huang Ye went straight to the internal skills lecture hall.
As usual, he found a seat at the back. Arriving early, there weren't many students yet.
However, some students noticed him and started whispering to their neighbors.
"That kid at the back looks like the poor guy from the other day."
Though his voice wasn't loud, it was enough for the students in the lecture hall to hear clearly.
Several students turned to look at Huang Ye, seeing him still in coarse clothing, and showed disdainful expressions.
"Why is he here again? Did he manage to get some money?"
"Probably, otherwise, he wouldn't dare show up."
"Even if he got money, it won't help. When Jiang Biao arrives, there'll be a good show."
"That's right, he probably only got enough to buy books, can't afford the protection fee, and might get beaten up by Jiang Biao."
"Even if he can afford the protection fee, he won't get past Red Sister."
The whispers of the students were clear to Huang Ye.
Jiang Biao, the name sounded fierce, hopefully, it's that sharp-tongued guy from the other day.
And who is Red Sister? She must be that sharp-tongued girl.
Didn't expect her to be a bully even in ancient times, what a weirdo.
As more students arrived, the chatter grew louder.
"Do you think he might be that memory genius?"
"Hard to say, even if he is, it doesn't matter. Plenty of smart people get beaten up."
"True, there'll definitely be a good show today, can't wait."
