Naming Technique of the Night

Others might have an equal cooperation, but he could carry a small whip and lead the 31 students along.

He wasn't just able to whip the Li Family's offspring, but even Shadow Candidate Qing Yi was not exempt.

As for who was superior and who was inferior, one glance was all it took to tell.

Uncle Li Dong said that there's always a second path in the competition for the Shadow, which is to kill all the other candidates.

Qing Chen was now taking both paths, grasping with both hands, determined to be strong on both fronts.

When the struggle for the Shadow finally erupted in City Number 18, Qing Chen would take the 31 students from Li's School to fight.

He truly didn't believe that there was anyone in City Number 18 who would dare use hot weapons against so many Li Family offspring.

Going after anyone would be taking on a big package.

Of course, this was contingent on him being able to manage the students well to begin with; if he couldn't command respect, he wouldn't be able to lead them out.

Qing Chen asked, "Didn't you say yesterday that there were more secrets to tell me? I come every day, so it wouldn't be too much to have you tell me one daily, would it?"

The old man sighed with emotion, "You want to eat fish and also pry secrets from me, why do you want to have a handle on everything good?"

"But your own words, can't you stand by them?" Qing Chen said, "What secret do you plan to tell today?"

After some thought, the old man said, "This is a secret only the Li Family knows. In addition to the two known rules of the Taboo Land Number 37, a third one was added 17 years ago."

Curiously, Qing Chen asked, "What is it?"

"You don't even know the first two rules, do you? I will tell you those first. The first rule is that you cannot take off any clothes, not a single piece. The second rule is that you can't smack your lips when eating," the old man said nonchalantly: "Since you don't know these two, the new rule can be tomorrow's secret to tell."

Qing Chen said indignantly, "Who splits a secret in half when telling it?"

"That's not my concern," the old man focused on his fishing.

It's like being in a teahouse and getting to the exciting part of a story, only for the storyteller to clap the clapper and say: stay tuned for the next episode.

And in fact, Qing Chen knew the first two rules because on the way back from the Taboo Land Number 002 to City Number 18, his mentor, Uncle Li Dong, had told him all the rules he knew, which included these two.

It was as though Qing Chen wanted to hear a secret, only to end up hearing loneliness.

But he couldn't admit that he actually knew the first two rules, for how would he explain his knowledge if asked?

That said, the rules against stripping and smacking lips were certainly left by some unique minds, and one could guess they would have tripped up many people.

"By the way, does the Li Family have any ancestral cultivation paths, other than the ones like the Fierce Tiger Sect?" Qing Chen asked with some curiosity, "With the Li Family's vast estate and nearly a thousand years of heritage, there must be some ultimate secrets, right?"

The Fierce Tiger Sect was the path that Li Yinuo was cultivating, but Qing Chen couldn't simply turn all Li Family offspring into mighty warriors.

The old man glanced at Qing Chen, "What do you need it for?"

"As a teacher at the Martial Arts School, it's silly to only teach fighting skills. If they only have the physique of ordinary people, no matter how good their combat skills are, it won't matter," Qing Chen said, "Against warriors who have taken Genetic Potions, they would still end up dead."

"The Li Family certainly has such things, but you're underestimating the path of cultivation. Even with the Li Family's great wealth, there's not much in stock," the old man said leisurely, "The path of inheritance is every Cultivator's greatest secret. Many people would rather take it to their graves than let it fall into the hands of consortia. Like the Knight, to this day the outside world doesn't know what else is required besides scaling the green cliffs and the fall into the sea of clouds. Moreover, it's said that Knights have a unique Breathing Method, and without knowing that, even if you know what Knights need to do, it's useless."

Qing Chen said in wonder, "The Li Family are descendants of Knights, and they don't know the secrets of the Knights?"

"You underestimate their devotion to inheritance. Even for their own sons, if they're not qualified to become Knights, they can't know the secrets," the old man said casually, "Of course, there are some Cultivators who aren't so principled, so the Li Family has some methods of cultivation. But the problem is, those who aren't principled... their methods aren't that great; one may cultivate for more than ten years and only reach a D-Class."

Qing Chen became even more puzzled, "Isn't there a better path of cultivation? I don't believe it."

The old man looked at him, "There is one said to lead to B-Class cultivation, but no one can inherit it now. If you want to try, I'll get someone to bring it to you."

Qing Chen suddenly realized that for the people of the Inner World, a cultivation path that could lead to B-Class was already quite impressive.

No wonder so many aspired to become Knights.

"Okay," Qing Chen nodded, "But why can no one inherit it?"

The old man glanced at him, "I'm not a cultivator, how would I know."

More than an hour had passed, and Qing Chen continued waiting for the old man to catch a Dragon Fish.

But whether it was the Dragon Fish's fault or the old man's, there wasn't a single bite.

Qing Chen muttered, "Will you be able to catch a fish today, or is it that your skills aren't up to par?"

The old man's eyes widened, "I've dominated the world of fishing for decades, and this is the first time someone has doubted my fishing skills."

"Fine, I won't question it," Qing Chen walked around the old man, pulled out a fishing line from his fishing gear bag, and tied a hook to it.
