He sat in the middle of nearly one hundred students and listened to the sound of them reading. His body and mind felt as if he had been plucked out of the world of martial artists, and he felt incredibly calm and peaceful.
Happy sat in the middle of the students in blue robes. He held a book in his left hand and quietly flipped through it. He read and swung his brush swiftly with his right hand, as if he had the help of a deity. Lines of rather neat and wild scribbles quickly covered the blank pages.
After all, they were in the game, and the official developers would not develop a program that would make players practice writing hard in the game. Hence, as long as the players read with their hearts, the words they read would naturally appear on the paper. They did not need to do anything.
However!
After all, this was a method to quickly gain Comprehension. It was much faster than practicing a martial art that was at Grandmaster Realm. Hence, patience and time were needed for reading and writing.
To be fair, even if the players paid a large amount of money to increase their Comprehension, they still had to finish reading a book before the system would automatically write it down.
"Ding!"
The clear sound of the system notification rose. "Successfully learned Three Character Classic. Obtained one Comprehension point!"
The first book swiftly disappeared from Happy's hands.
Happy was not surprised. He picked up the other book on the table, flipped to a page, and started reading it out loud.
The Three Character Classic was the simplest book among all the subjects. The time needed to read it once was also the shortest. The others needed at least half an hour, and some even needed one to two hours. Reading and writing became Happy's main theme for the day.
He did not go to class in real life, but instead came to the game to read and write. This caused many people to find it comical, but also a little novel. "Close to the turtledove, in the continent of the river; a fair and graceful lady, a gentleman's … good wife."
With the experience from his previous life, Happy could easily recite many of the words. He was very familiar with the process. He read and wrote in one go, and he looked just like an NPC student who was reciting poetry.
Happy did not notice the dumbfounded expressions of the players beside him.
They could be considered as old foxes in the private school. When they had nothing to do, they would come here to chat for a while, but up to then, there were very few people who came here to study. Even if there were, they would only take a quick glance before they were scared away by the astonishingly high tuition fees. Occasionally, there would be rich people who would at most read Three Character Classic before they left in defeat.
There was no one like Happy.
A stack of 'sky-high' books was placed in front of him, and he was writing at a pace that was neither too fast nor too slow. It was as if he was going to spend all his money here.
However!
Even if they wanted to disperse, they had to have the capital to do so …
As they watched, they were completely intimidated by Happy's presence and demeanor! He held his breath, not daring to even breathe loudly as he whispered in Zhang Xuan's ear, trying to guess the other party's identity.
"More than ten books … at least five to six hundred thousand …"
"If it were converted to RMB, it would cost tens of thousands. This brat is really willing to spend money. Wouldn't it be better if he just bought a few high-tier martial art manuals? What's the point of making your comprehension so high now? "
"Who knows? But how do you know that he doesn't have a superior weapon? Look at his demeanor. He doesn't care about money at all. Tsk tsk, when can we be like him? "
"You? If you have nothing better to do than to waste your life here, I think you can forget about it for the rest of your life unless there is inflation! "
"Screw you."
The group chatted with each other. Since Happy had been reading and did not look at them, they gradually lost interest. They lay down on the table and continued to kill time in boredom. During that period of time, Happy did not stop for even a moment. He was completely immersed in reading and writing, and a few of the books on the table disappeared one after another.
Occasionally, when he logged off and returned to the private school, he would pick up a book without hesitation and continue reading. He would also continue writing from where he had left off. During that period of time, the people who guarded the private school changed again and again.
"Ding!"
When the system notified Happy that he had successfully understood one Comprehension point, the sound of footsteps rose, and a person walked in from outside the private school. The change in light caused Happy to instinctively cast a glance at the door of the private school.
There was a man with an incomplete silver mask covering his face. Only half of his face was exposed, and he appeared not too far away from Happy. His feet were flat, and he was as steady as a mountain. He had one hand on his sword, and he gave off an imposing and aggressive feeling! The presence of a soldier was incredibly great. The man's expression was cold. He stood at the entrance of the private school and surveyed the area with a scrutinizing gaze. Soon, he noticed Happy, who was dressed in blue robes and was very eye-catching among the white-robed scholars.
Happy did not give off the presence of a martial artist. He held a book in his hand and read it out loud. After a long period of time, his gaze was calm, and his presence was indifferent. He gave off the image of a scholar who stood aloof from worldly affairs, but the books placed in front of him gave off an unfathomable feeling.
Their gazes clashed in the air, and both their expressions changed. They had two completely different presences. One of them was firm, and the other was gentle, but when they clashed, sparks that were difficult for a normal person to imagine appeared. The silver-masked man had a firm and fierce presence, and his expression was cold. His gaze was as sharp as a mountain, and he looked as if he had turned into an unsheathed saber, causing others to feel as if the air had frozen! The other players in the private school seemed to have been completely subdued by him. They held their breaths and looked at each other in a daze. Happy was the opposite!
Even though he had the image of a calm scholar, when he faced the silver-masked man and the aggressive presence that was like a mountain, he did not seem to be affected at all. He was like a vast and calm ocean that had no waves. When he sat down, the silver-masked man, who had been showing off his prowess, felt as if he had used all his strength in vain, and he felt incredibly uncomfortable.
His gaze darkened. 'A powerful enemy!'
He nodded quietly to show his respect. Then, the silver-masked man searched for a spot, placed his sword on the ground, and sat down steadily. His posture was like that of a general returning to his court.
As he stared at the man's back, Happy's heart rose and fell like a wave. The memories buried in the depths of his heart gradually became clear when he saw the familiar incomplete silver mask.
'It's him!'
Silver Wolf was the legendary retired player who used his self-created military fist to kill a high-class player who had practiced a high-tier martial art to the seventh realm. Because of it, he shocked the world of martial arts.
Happy remembered that Silver Wolf had become famous a long time ago, and it was because of him that he stirred up a trend of creating his own martial arts. Even Happy had been affected by many of Silver Wolf's battle replays, and he gradually noticed that martial arts countered each other. Unfortunately, before long, Silver Wolf had completely disappeared from the game.
After Happy rose to power, Silver Wolf never appeared again. He seemed to have retired from the game due to some matters in real life, and Happy, who had always longed to become stronger, found it a pity!
He did not expect that …
He would actually have the chance to meet him again in this life, and they would meet in such a situation.
As if he had noticed Happy's gaze, Silver Wolf turned his head around while he sat in front of him. The side of his face was hidden under the mask, and there was a faint hint of wariness and puzzlement in the deep holes in his eyes.
Happy smiled kindly, and his gaze landed on the scroll in his hands.
It was best if he did not interfere in matters that had nothing to do with him.
Silver Wolf might be destined to be a hurried passerby in his life.
Speaking of which, he was just three Comprehension points away from reaching the requirements to practice Seven Stars Sword. It was a Mystical Realm high-tier sword technique, and it was his first high-tier sword technique.
