Chapter 877: Kirin Talented Man Keeps His Promise
"White Deer Academy..."
Mo Cheng whispered the name of the academy, and this action seemed to stimulate some memories of this body, and the mixed fragments began to reassemble into complete pieces.
The meaning of Bailu Academy is: Let the white deer go among the green cliffs, and if you have to go, ride it to visit the famous mountains.
According to legend, immortals or hermits often ride white deer, so the academy is named after the white deer, and most of the people in the academy are hermits or scholars who study hard.
"In addition to the Confucian White Deer Academy, there seems to be an annual exam among the foxes, but I don't know who holds it." Shen Xueqi thought for a moment before adding, "I heard from my master that it seems to be related to Taoism."
Mo Cheng nodded, but he didn't pay too much attention to such things. He was just surprised to see monsters in a human city, but after learning more about them, he was not so surprised anymore.
However, perhaps it was because Mo Cheng's gaze was too direct just now, the fox student seemed to feel Mo Cheng's gaze and looked over.
After discovering that Mo Cheng was also a student of the academy, he came up to me with a little surprise and bowed, saying, "My name is Tu Shanyi. I wonder if I was being rude to you for looking at me so intently just now?"
Tu Shanyi's voice...
Sounds very nice.
It was the first time that Mo Cheng heard the sound of a clamp from a male creature, and it didn't feel strange at all.
However, what caught his attention more than Tushan Yi's voice was the other party's surname.
Tushan and Qingqiu, according to what Mo Cheng had learned, were the two places where fox spirits originated.
But he soon realized, based on the fragmentary knowledge from his previous life, that most foxes have "Tushan" and "Qingqiu" as their surnames.
Realizing that it was his undisguised gaze that had disturbed the other person, Mo Cheng bowed and apologized: "I am Mo Cheng..."
Just as he said his name, before Mo Cheng could explain his impolite look, Tu Shanyi's eyes lit up, and he took two steps closer and asked, "Is it Jixia Mo Cheng, Mo Shouxin?"
Does the other party know you?
Could it be a friend of my predecessor?
The doubt did not linger in Mo Cheng's mind for long. He nodded and admitted, "I am Mo Cheng. How do you know me?"
"It turned out to be [Qilin Talent] in person, but it was rude."
Tu Shanyi seemed to have come up with a very unfamiliar term, but before Mo Cheng could ask, he continued, "It is fate that we met by chance today. Why don't I host you and come with me."
As he spoke, Tu Shanyi led the way.
Mo Cheng was stunned for a moment. This was the first time he had seen such a "hospitable" vixen. However, he also wanted to know why the other party knew him, and the title of the so-called "Qilin Talent" also made him very concerned.
The group came to an inn called Shanhaiyuan, which was not only the largest inn in the city, but also the largest restaurant, located on the busiest street in Baigu City.
However, the private rooms on the third floor were very quiet, with only a few occupied.
Tu Shanyi seemed very familiar with this place and seemed to be a regular customer. After the waiter had served the dishes, Mo Cheng did not rush to pick up his chopsticks. Instead, he asked, "Have I met you before?"
Tu Shanyi shook his head, "No, this is the first time we meet."
"Then where does the title [Qilin Talent] come from?"
Mo Cheng was very sure that his predecessor had never had such an impressive title. His predecessor was a student who studied hard and tried to understand the examiner, with the goal of passing the exam and becoming an official.
It is true that the end of all things is a test for the public.
Now it was Tu Shanyi's turn to be surprised, "You don't know?"
As he spoke, he pulled out a booklet from the books he was holding and handed it to Mo Cheng, "This is the Heaven, Earth, and Human rankings compiled by the [Tianji Pavilion] today. The Heaven ranking has not changed in the past fifty years. Fifteen years ago, [Shu Zun] achieved Yuanshen and ranked 87th on the Earth ranking. The Human ranking is updated approximately once every three months, and changes are the most frequent."
As if he could tell that Mo Cheng didn't understand this, Tu Shanyi explained in detail, "The rankings of Heaven, Earth, and Human are not based on strength. The Heaven Ranking is for the True Immortals who have never ascended to the human world. They are like dragons that can only be seen from head to tail, and are the hardest to find. The Earth Ranking is for those who are above the ordinary and who practice only to ascend to the heavens. Most of them are secluded in remote places and don't interact with others."
"And the Human Ranking is for those who rise and fall in the pursuit of fame and fortune among the masses. Who is stronger, the No. 1 on the Human Ranking or the No. 1 on the Heavenly Ranking or the No. 1 on the Earthly Ranking, is still an unsolved mystery."
I see. Ranking list. When Mo Cheng was in [Foreign Land], he was also a frequent visitor to the list.
It’s just that the list he was on was really not impressive. As a monk who had taken a vow of poverty, he naturally had no place on the wealth list or the magic weapon list.
The list that [The Great Killer Monk] has been on for many years is called [Sin List], [Blood Slaughter List]...
The former is calculated based on the number of NPCs killed, and the latter is calculated based on the number of players killed. Those who can make it to these two lists are not good people.
At Tushan Yi's reminder, Mo Cheng turned the booklet to the list of people and quickly found his name .
Name: Mo Cheng, courtesy name Shouxin.
Skills: Jixia Theory, Secret Method of Burning Life, sharp swordsmanship, with the style of a sword cultivator, and the ability to summon heavenly thunder.
Weapon: [Liushui Sword], one of the Nine Abyss famous swords, originally owned by Wanghan Zhenren, one of the three Yunping immortals. According to Wanghan Zhenren’s disciples, it was given by Wanghan Zhenren.
Battle record: Used a bolt of heavenly thunder to kill Young Master Xihua; used three bolts of heavenly thunder to break through the Dark Tide blockade, and his foundation was suspected to be damaged; killed [Black Poison Lord] and [the Three Lords of the Sun, Moon, and Star of Tianchen Palace] head-on.
Identity: A student of Jixia Academy, a fellow Taoist and Confucian practitioner, and a disciple of Taoist Weiyi, one of the Three Immortals of Yunping.
At the bottom of the listed information, there is another line of text:
Nickname: Kirin Talent.
"I can understand everything else, but what's going on with this [Qilin Talent]? How come [Tianji Pavilion] is helping others come up with nicknames?"
Mo Cheng could easily understand the rest. Some of them were revealed to the recorder of the Northern Qi government after he killed Master Xihua. Some of them were things he had not tried to conceal at all and could be discovered through investigation as long as he put in some effort.
But that [Qilin Talent] really surprised him. How exactly was he the same as that guy who was sick and would not live long?
"When Mr. Wei Yi was in Jixia Academy, he was the best in both literature and martial arts among all the other academies, and was nicknamed the Eight-toed Kirin."
When talking about Taoist Wei Yi, Tu Shanyi's face was full of excitement, as if he was talking about himself instead of Taoist Wei Yi. "Mr. Wei Yi once said that he was an Eight-toed Qilin, so I must be a Qilin Talent who can stabilize the country with literary skills and rule the country with martial arts, and can outsmart Crouching Dragon and outwit Phoenix Youngster."
Tu Shanyi stood up as he said this . He imitated someone and looked like a drunken lunatic. He pointed at the surroundings with his eyes half drunken. “Everyone in the world says: If you can get one of the Crouching Dragon and the Phoenix, you can rule the world. But if you can get my disciple [Qilin Talent], you can get the world!”
