Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 314 Charm Of The Teacher.

The students were shocked to see that General Edwards directly used the fabled Hero Stance and Shi Lang also imitated the same stance. The battle began and what shocked them, even more, was that they were evenly matched.

Theseus said, “This demon is not even taking a step back.”

The others also nodded that Shi Lang was fighting from the same spot and his actions were sharp, General Edwards on the other hand was slightly falling behind. Theseus observed every detail and said, “God damn it, this guy is even changing the moves. Look, his blows are getting thicker to intercept.”

The class was following his guidance and they noticed the changes. They were shocked, Quo Lina asked, “I reach somewhere that only one person had ever used the Hero Stance, other than General Edwards. Could our teacher be him?”

Her tone was low but it made the people shiver. They all turned to look at her and then at Theseus, who was their think tank and found him to be frozen in his spot, looking pale with shock. He raised his shivering hand and accessed his communicator, and quickly manipulated it to find out some things, suddenly he froze and turned around to look at the whiteboard and then operated the communicator to look for the information.

The response was very quick, and he fumbled forward. It was thanks to Chou that he managed to stay standing, he said, “General Shi Lang, heavily decorated and highly skilled. His achievements in forming an alliance with Neomon Empire, and Arcadia are exemplary jobs, and his exploits in the zerg war had already given him the title of the hero of Terrans.

It is said that Fleet General Shi Lang is the new head of the General Council, and also the strongest Terran according to the spirit cultivation system that he introduced. Recently, the general has taken a step back and is busy uplifting the military power of the Federation. Also, he led a team of soldiers and won a league tournament in the Galactic Council.

Although the exact details of how the tournament works are yet to be made public, we still have some battle footage, released as a teaser to inspire the youth of the federation and push them forward on the path of glory.”

The people took a deep breath collectively and they found it unbelievable, for such a person to come and teach them. They were not fools and realized what was going on. They knew the identity of the person and could not help but feel excited, but then Theseus asked, “Why would such a person spare his time on wastes like us? Shouldn’t he be training those cream corps?”

The class fell into contemplation when a calm voice sounded, “Because, that glorified person was a problem child himself.”

The students looked at the speaker and were stunned, Yuu stood leaning against the door threshold as she looked down at a small bug between her fingers. The students were startled by her sudden appearance and were anxious since their bug was found. Yuu said, “Lang was taken by old man Ed, I am here to return this to you.”

She flicked her finger and the bug was planted directly on Theseus’s forehead. Then she said, “Take your seats. I will give you guys a history lesson.”

The students were surprised and some even wanted to say that she was not their teacher but Theseus recognized her intention and hollered, “What are you punks standing for, get to your seats.”

The startled crowd scurried to their seats and Yuu walked up to the podium and stood with her back leaning against the table. She said, “The topic of this lesson is Shi Lang. You might have seen him in full glory and bravado, but I have seen him when he was a noob and knew nothing else but to crawl in the mud for days.

He was not gifted, his star cultivation was struck at the one-star level when he was in his final year. It was almost sure that he was not going to the military and the war front was just a fabled fantasy for him. However, he never gave up. All these years he tempered his body to the limits that were not possible for the favored or the privileged never thought could be done.”

Theseus asked, “What did he do?”

Yuu chuckled and said, “A one-star level Terran could tolerate ten times the gravity pull. How many do you know?”

The class all had wide eyes as they did not expect anything like this to surface. They became interested and the conversation picked up pace. They found a lot of things about Shi Lang’s school life. They were all shocked and amused by his deeds. After a few minutes, a bell rang throughout the campus. While the other students were going out, Shi Lang’s class kept sitting in their seats.

They were in awe of what they heard from the battling goddess. She told them that Shi Lang had wanted to train them all into warriors that would be able to make a difference. Even if the children were smart, this sentence was enough to stimulate them. Theseus stood up after Yuu left the room and said, “I do not want to be a problematic child anymore.”

The rest of the students nodded and one of them took the lead and said, “How about we all stop the facade, we know better than anyone else that either we do not have any skill or our skills are not recognized by the people out there. Today, the teacher spotted Quo Lina, and we got to learn from her if we stand united and help each other, can we not rise?”

The people nodded and they began to discuss their future aspirations. In the end, when they were all getting a bit too ahead of themselves, Theseus said, “Everyone, the first goal is to be disciplined. Even if our teacher was a weakling who rose through the ranks and bend the world to his will. He did not lose the decorum. He is an example for us all that if we do not know anything we should not look away from that. We can learn and improve like the rest of them.”

The legend of Shi Lang had cast a charm spell on them. They wanted to be Shi Lang, just like the young man first wanted to be someone else. They knew that only when they had sufficient power will they be able to have a name for themselves. Since Shi Lang had come over to teach them, then they will also not disappoint him and learn all that they could from him.

…

The night passed and the next morning, Shi Lang arrived at the class, he did not scan it and entered the room directly. He found Theseus standing at the podium, explaining something to the rest of the students. As the teacher stepped in the young man bowed and went back to his seat as he said, “All rise.”

The entire class followed the command like a machine and stood up in greeting and respect to the teacher. Shi Lang did not know that Yuu had come over here to talk to them, he thought they were simply scared of him from the battle they watched yesterday and did not care about it. He nodded and said, “Be seated.”

Then he was about to sit down in his chair when a girl raised her hand. Shi Lang spotted her and asked, “What is it, Pamela?”

Pamela blushed slightly thinking how the teacher even knew her name, but she calmed her mind and asked, “Teacher, can we start with physics? I like this subject but I do not understand a few topics that always mess up my effort.”

Shi Lang was surprised and nodded, just as he accessed the holocomp to see what Pamela wanted to ask, he noticed that the uniforms everyone had were neat and tidy. They did not have loose ties or missing blazers. Even the hair was all combed. He did not understand how, but these guys looked very disciplined.

He put these thoughts aside and began to teach the students about all the subjects. As a tech major, his knowledge points were all covered, and the students were all happy to learn from him. Shi Lang asked them if they were confused at the end of his explanation and the students raised their hands.

They were not shy to hide their weakness, it was a display of trust. Shi Lang patiently handled all the queries and the students learned a lot. The topics varied from one subject to another, usually, there would be a different teacher for a different subject, but here Shi Lang was doing it all, as none of the teachers agreed to teach the problems they wished to get rid of.

Shi Lang covered a lot of things and the students all took notes of the matters and they would even help each other. The vibe of the problem class was unlike anything else. It was very harmonious and even Principal Edwards was shocked to see the change when he came to inspect the class sneakily.

After watching the attitude of the students, Shi Lang said, “Anyone of you who can breakthrough to the third-star level cultivation will get a chance to learn about spiritual energy from me, but the break through should be natural as I do not want to have you try any forced methods. I will have you expelled if you broke the rules. Do you understand?”

The class replied in unison, “Yes, Teacher Lang.”
