Chapter 248: I Want to Be a Ghost Fairy

“What in the world is going on? Where did all the Disciples of Lingxiao Sect go?”

Nine Serenity Venerable Liu Ming looked at the empty classroom with a dejected expression.

For some unknown reason, starting a week ago, the number of Disciples attending his classes dwindled day by day.

By today, there were only a few dozen people left.

Moreover, these students seemed completely uninterested in the content he was teaching.

Even his signature ghost scares had no effect whatsoever.

“This can’t go on...”

Liu Ming frowned, thinking of his agreement with Nangong Yuan.

If the number of Disciples attending his classes wasn't enough, the remuneration he would receive would be very low!

This simply wouldn’t do!

Having made up his mind, he hurried to Lihuo Peak to find Nangong Yuan.

“Elder Nangong, your Lingxiao Sect’s Disciples are too lazy! The class is only halfway through, and they’re not even coming to class... They simply don’t show any respect for me as a teacher!”

Nine Serenity Venerable immediately began to denounce the Disciples' shortcomings.

“Oh, you mean that... Perhaps it’s my Rebellious Disciple’s Illusion Realm. It is said that the sect’s Disciples spend every day inside, researching ghosts and the like.”

Nangong Yuan did not hide anything and openly told Nine Serenity Venerable about the matter.

There was nothing to hide, really; if the other party bothered to investigate even a little, he would be able to find out this information.

It was clear that Liu Ming wasn't very serious about teaching.

“Illusion Realm? Nonsense!”

Nine Serenity Venerable was instantly enraged.

“You want to temper your mind by relying on some damn Illusion Realm? Your Lingxiao Sect is too absurd!”

“Elder Nangong, it’s not like I’m not teaching anything... If your Disciples don’t come to class themselves, you can’t blame me!”

Hearing Liu Ming speak like this, Nangong Yuan almost laughed in anger.

He had given him two options: one was the previous fixed price, and the other was the current remuneration calculated based on the number of classes taught and the number of students.

You, Liu Ming, wanted to earn more, and now you’re going back on your word?

“We have a contract in place...”

Nangong Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, his tone becoming less gentle.

“This...”

Liu Ming was speechless for a moment.

“Besides, my Rebellious Disciple’s Illusion Realm may not be without effect.”

Nangong Yuan stroked his beard.

He recalled a few days ago, when he, Chao Wendao, Third Elder Lin, and a few other Elders, entered the Illusion Realm, not believing in evil, wanting to set an example for those unpromising True Disciples.

On that day, countless divine lightning bolts descended upon Leigong Peak.

Many Disciples thought that Chao Wendao had reached another Breakthrough point, unaware that they were so scared by Lu Ze’s Illusion Realm that they disconnected...

This matter was sealed by Chao Wendao with a large sum of money, forbidding the other three from spreading it...

“Then how about this: if this Illusion Realm is ineffective, your Lingxiao Sect Disciples must be forced to attend my class?”

Liu Ming gritted his teeth and proposed.

Nangong Yuan pondered for a moment: “Agreed.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Ming’s tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed.

“Three days from now, I will hold a midterm test.”

“At that time, this old man will place various ghosts and obstacles within the barrier...”

“Students must find a way out while their cultivation is sealed!”

...

...

Three days later.

“No... This is impossible!”

Looking at the list of Disciples who passed the test, Liu Ming slammed the table in disbelief.

The pass rate was as high as 95%!

And almost all of those who didn’t pass his ghost test were Disciples who came to class every day...

These were the most ferocious and terrifying evil ghosts he had specially arranged, accumulated over hundreds of years!

If this got out, wouldn't it make people laugh their heads off?

At this moment, news of the midterm test he had specially organized had already spread on the forum of “ghost town.”

The Nine Serenity Venerable’s test... seems a bit too easy?

My assessment is: less terrifying than amateur difficulty.

The only difficult part of the test: no reconnaissance items, which makes me uneasy.

It makes me anxious just watching... Is this how ghosts are supposed to act? They don’t even know how to scare people!

I suggest those ghosts come to “ghost town” for further training.

I feel like I bought Elder Liu’s class for nothing... Such a loss!

“ghost town” is too scary! I estimate that Nine Serenity Venerable wouldn’t be able to handle it either...

...

At this moment, Liu Ming was browsing these posts, his blood boiling.

He, a dignified Soul Transformation Realm Soul Cultivator, was being said to be inferior to an Illusion Realm made by a True Disciple?

He was absolutely unconvinced!

Especially when he thought that if he didn’t do something soon, his trip to Lingxiao Sect would be in vain...

Liu Ming was anxious!

He had to prove himself.

Having made up his mind, he posted a thread under his real name.

“I am Nine Serenity Venerable, and this ‘ghost town’ Illusion Realm, even at its highest difficulty, is child’s play to me!”

...

...

The server’s main world.

“When will this Heavenly Dao finally become a Ghost Immortal?”

Facing the incessant nagging of the Fragment of the Heavenly Dao, Lu Ze shook his head helplessly.

There was nothing he could do; the ultimate evil ghost of “Ghost Immortal” strength only appeared at the highest difficulty.

And the current players...

Let alone the highest difficulty, even the ordinary Nightmare difficulty made them tremble, and the clear rate was less than 50%.

No one dared to challenge the highest difficulty to court death.

Just then, Lu Ze suddenly saw a post that had been pushed to the top of the hot topics, and he immediately chuckled.

“It seems... I’ll have to let this kid have his fun early.”

Lu Ze shook his head with a smile, then went to Nine Serenity Venerable’s ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) post and replied with his main account.

“Realm Master Lu Ze: Alright, then let it be as you wish.”
