Chapter 364: 278, New Instructor at Martial Arts School, Qing Chen (Requesting Monthly Tickets)_2

Just like Uncle Li Dong had apprenticed himself years ago, entrusted by the Master of the Li Family to his master, the responsibility for this generation’s legacy had now fallen to him.

This was something Li Changqing didn’t know, and Qing Chen couldn’t explain.

Initially, Qing Chen had thought about teaching XiaoTongyun, but then he reconsidered, always feeling that it would let XiaoTongyun endure much hardship.

Qing Chen’s life had been tough from the start, so he could endure it.

But there was no need to force XiaoTongyun to suffer similarly; it was enough for her to live comfortably as a little rich lady.

Qing Chen had once asked Uncle Li Dong, “What if this generation in the Li Family doesn’t even have a single worthy successor, what should be done?”

…

The response from Uncle Li Dong was, “Then just wait for the next generation. After all, you have a long life ahead. You can outlive them for five or six generations without a problem. I never promised that the succession had to happen quickly. After you outlive five or six generations, the person I made the deal with will no longer be here, and nobody will remember this promise. Remember, a knight’s legacy is better lacking than flawed.”

Qing Chen: “…”

His master probably meant that there really was no obligation to settle any debts.

But he didn’t explicitly say so.

Perhaps that’s just what a righteous knight is, though it’s hard to say where exactly things went awry.

…

…

Li’s School was within the ‘Zhi Xin Courtyard.’

The entire Zhi Xin Courtyard was vast, even larger than Li Changqing’s ‘Feiyun Courtyard’ and Li Yinuo’s ‘Qing Shan Villa’ combined.

Qing Chen wasn’t sure if this ‘Zhi Xin’ really referred to the ‘gaining new insights through reviewing old material.’

In front of the courtyard stood two trees, one of which was a date tree, and so was the other.

At the entrance, numerous servants of the Li Clan were waiting outside, some snacking on sunflower seeds, others chatting, waiting for their young masters and young ladies to finish class.

Qing Chen had quite the sensation of an old-style private school.

Li Changqing explained, “Inside the school, no servants are allowed; classes run from morning to evening, and everyone must bring their lunch from home. Within the school, the children of the Li Clan must not compare themselves with others and must do everything by themselves. Of course, not all children need to attend this school, but only those who graduate can be assigned significant roles within the clan.”

“Since graduating from here is necessary to be assigned significant roles, is there anyone who skips classes?” Qing Chen wondered.

“Certainly,” Li Changqing said, looking towards Li Tongyun, “From now on, you better come here diligently, understand? Your fifth brother left early, so no one looked after you, but now I will. If you skip school again, I will have to beat you.”

Li Tongyun was on the verge of tears; having barely escaped from the Outer World where she didn’t need to attend school, she just wanted to live quietly as a little tycoon in the Inner World.

How did a mother suddenly appear?!

Inside, Qing Chen struggled to hold back his laughter, though he maintained a face that seemed barely familiar with XiaoTongyun.

Nan Gengchen was planning the same, ready to have a good laugh about it once he returned to the Outer World.

Suddenly, Qing Chen asked, “You mentioned before about reestablishing the Martial Arts School, so has this school been founded before?”

“Yes,” Li Changqing said, “But it had only operated for a short period and only ever had one instructor. After that instructor left the clan, the Martial Arts School was also closed.”

Qing Chen was startled, wondering why the departure of the instructor necessitated the closure of the Martial Arts School: “Was there anything particular about this instructor?”

“Nothing special; he was my seventh brother,” Li Changqing calmly stated, “After he was an instructor, the later students never accepted any new instructors, so no one could carry on teaching. No matter how many came, they were always driven away.”

Seventh Brother, isn’t that my master? Qing Chen muttered inwardly.

So, was this considered a legacy of following in his father’s footsteps?

Li Yinuo suddenly said, “Aunt, I heard it was all because you drove them away?”

“Hahaha, you heard about that too?” Li Changqing laughed, hiding his embarrassment, “Did your dad tell you?”

Qing Chen’s expression became odd, so it was Li Changqing who was the main culprit behind the closure of the Martial Arts School in the past, and yet now he wanted Qing Chen to reopen it.

As they were about to enter the Zhi Xin Courtyard, suddenly a servant stepped forward and said earnestly, “Good morning, Mr. Chang Qing.”

Li Changqing, with a smile, asked, “Is there anything?”

“This person beside you, is he the new instructor of the Martial Arts School?” the servant asked politely.

“Yes, he is,” Li Changqing confirmed, “Do you want to challenge him?”

“I do indeed,” the servant said, “I specialize in fighting and personally believe that I’m more suited to be the instructor of the Martial Arts School.”

Li Changqing smiled, far from dissuading, she even made a significant promise, “If you can defeat him, I’ll find your indenture contract from the company and tear it up, allowing you to become an instructor in the Martial Arts School.”

Qing Chen was taken aback; Li Changqing really enjoyed stirring things up.

But that wasn’t the end of it; Li Changqing then addressed all the servants, “I offer the same conditions to everyone; defeat him and you can gain your freedom and become an instructor.”

Qing Chen was dumbfounded; there were at least thirty or forty servants here!

He could clearly see that everyone’s eyes lit up!

The key concern was, could there be some highly skilled masters hidden among them?

Li Changqing turned to Qing Chen and said with a light chuckle, “One thing you don’t have to worry about, I told those little rascals yesterday, anyone who brings a servant above E-Class to the villa, need not leave the villa for the next year.”

“So, it was you who told them to come?” Qing Chen caught the crucial point.

Li Changqing smiled, “Otherwise, how would you command respect… I just love seeing you defeat others, it’s very attractive. Don’t worry, after this fight, they’ll all accept you.”
