Chapter 272: Meteor Generation (1)At an inn located in Henan, a heated discussion was taking place.
“Did you hear?”
After hearing a man speaking very cheerfully, Bangdok, the host of the house, frowned.
“I did. Brother Chang’s been telling me about it every day, so how could I not?”
“Ah, I already told you?”
The man, Chang Euijin, smiled awkwardly as he remembered that he had also spoken about it yesterday.
However, the other men sitting at the same table showed a different reaction.
“What are you two talking about?”
Hearing that, Bangdok returned to the kitchen saying, It’ll take a while this time as well.
Of course, Chang Eujin was more than happy as he loved telling stories.
“Brother Don, you know that the Heavenly Dragon Academy will open this year, right?”
“How could I not? I heard that it’s opening for the first time in four to five years.”
The Heavenly Dragon Academy usually opened after an interval, but it felt like the interval this time around was rather long.
“Do you also know who is going to be the head of the Academy this time?”
“Of course I do. I heard that the Head of Kunlun Sect is coming to the Academy this time.”
They were part of the Ten Sect Alliance who were defeated by Qinghai.
The Head of Kunlun Sect, the Qinghai Sword Euibi Jin.
It was said that he was the one who would head the Academy this year.
The Murim Alliance were in charge of the Heavenly Dragon Academy, but the head of the Academy changed every time it opened.
“I believe that the Head of the Wudang Sect was the head previously.”
“Only a few people graduated back then because of him.”
It wasn’t strange that something like that happened as the personality of the Greatest Sword of Wudang Sect was well known throughout the Central Plains.
“Even so, if we take a look at the Sword Phoenix or the Heavenly Dragon, we can see that some were bound to fly.”
“That’s true... but was that the important story you wanted to tell us?”
“Uh-uh, of course not.”
Chang Euijin waved his hand about, telling the man that he was wrong.
“If everyone already knew this story, would I have been in such a good mood?”
“What is it then?”
“You do know that new instructors will be selected once the Qinghai Sword becomes the head, right?”
“That’s normally the case, but wouldn’t they also be selected from the Kunlun Sect?”
“About that...”
Scooch.
Chang Euijin stood up abruptly and got closer to the man he was speaking to.
“This is top secret information I heard from the Beggar’s Sect.”
“And you leaked the ‘top secret’ yesterday and the day before?”
“...Get in the mood, will you?”
Hearing Chang Euijin whine, the man grudgingly drew closer to him with a frown on his face.
Satisfied, Chang Euijin whispered into the man’s ear.
“I heard that the Plum Blossom Sword will be one of the instructors this time.”
“...Huh?”
That was truly unexpected information.
It was refreshing to hear it at first, but the man then backed away as if he was disappointed.
“Yeah, right. What reason does the Sword Queen have to become an instructor?”
“Then do you think the Qinghai Sword is going there because he has time to spare?”
“Well, at least he gets paid.”
“...That’s true.”
It wasn’t just money, because only people with great honor and name in the Central Plains were given the position of Head of the Academy.
It was meant to be a great honor for a martial artist to be given such a position.
It meant that the martial artist was approved by the Orthodox Sect.
However, considering the Sword Queen...
“She isn’t someone who will become a mere instructor.”
She was the heroine representing the Central Plains and the youngest master of Mount Hua to earn the title of Sword Queen.
On top of that, the Sword Queen was someone who received the most praise from people and very few spoke ill about her.
People always let out a sigh of relief whenever she made an appearance in the world after disappearing for a few years.
“She alone is good enough to become the head.”
“The Celestial Plum Blossom would have taken that position instead.”
The Celestial Plum Blossom was offered the position a couple of times, but he kept rejecting them saying that he had no power to take on such a responsibility if it weren’t for the children of Mount Hua.
Despite that, the Sword Queen was now becoming an instructor.
And at a time when the Kunlun Sect was the head?
“I don’t believe that the Qinghai Sword has accepted this.”
That was one of the reasons that made people think that the information was false.
“Why does everyone doubt it so much? Don’t get surprised when you realize that what I told you was the truth.”
“I’ll buy you a drink if you are correct.”
“This inn will receive twice its usual income that day.”
Chang Euijin laughed out loud.
“Besides that, tell me about something else.”
“Something else? What?”
“You said that this year’s Heavenly Dragon Academy was shocking.”
“Aha.”
Chang Euijin nodded after hearing the man’s words.
He understood what the man was talking about.
In the Meteor Generation, there were a ton of geniuses who would probably be seen maybe once in a hundred years.
Even from that group of geniuses, there were young prodigies who shone brighter.
The current generation was called the generation of Meteors as the geniuses kept pouring down like shooting stars.
The Six Dragons and Three Phoenixes.
The six dragons and three phoenixes were the ones who shone brightest among all the geniuses.
“Previously, there were only two of them, one Dragon and one Phoenix.”
“Yes.”
“Oh, there were only two?”
