BXBX NOVEL Chapter 196 Instructor
In the Mystic Demon Library, Ezra looked at the costly spiritual techniques.
The majority of the disciples would seek out instructors in the Mystic Demon Library after choosing a spiritual technique. These instructors would point them in the right direction, allowing them to more easily master the technique.
"So expensive." Ezra could not help but sigh. Though the forty or so spiritual jade pieces might seem like a lot, they were really not enough. And he could not exchange them with any treasure, that would be against the rules and might cause him problems if the news gets out.
Ezra continued advancing with the jade strip, but stopped again after a few steps, his eyeballs nearly popping from their sockets as he stared at a jade strip that was now before him.
"Eight Lost Dragons, high tier Gamma layer skill.
Can create eight dragons made of pure spiritual energy, peerless and tyrannical."
These short few words gave off a tyrannical aura, displaying the power of the spiritual technique.
Ezra\'s heart trembled with desire, but his expression turned stiff when he saw the rental price. The Eight Lost Dragons required twenty Spirit jade pieces a day, four times of the Gassamer Step spiritual technique.
"Fuck shit, that\'s expensive."
The prince could not help but curse through gritted teeth, ultimately making the painful decision to give up on it for the time being. He planned to first master Gossamer Steps, gather enough Spirit jade and then return to rent the Eight Lost Dragons.
Ezra Zephyr forcibly pulled his gaze away from the jade strip, tightening his grip around the Gossamer Steps jade strip as he turned around and quickly walked off. He soon arrived at the counter and handed the jade strip to a middle-aged man behind it.
The man picked up a jade booklet to record as he asked, "Pass me your disciple token. Also, the Gossamer Steps spiritual technique costs five spirit jade pieces a day, how many days do you plan on leasing it?"
The prince pondered for a moment and answered, "I\'ll go with five days."
He\'ll first see to what extent he can master the Gossamer Steps technique in five days.
The middle-aged manager nodded and said, "Are you intending to find a spiritual technique instructor that has learnt it already?"
The werewolf prince was silent for a brief moment before asking, "Do you have any recommendations?"
Gamma layer skills were rather difficult to comprehend, and it was easy to take the wrong path if one were to blindly grasp about on his own, causing even more time to be wasted. At times, having someone else\'s guidance would be a huge help. He had the experience, as the Razor Pearl Eagle helped him with Glittering Wind and Light after he made it his undead soldier.
The middle-aged manager thought for a bit, retrieved a jade tile and handed it to Ezra. "Most of the instructors here are real outer mountain disciples from the seven peaks, and there\'s currently only one of them who has learnt the Gossamer Steps technique. The price of listening to his teachings is also five Spirit jade pieces per day."
Ezra curiously received the jade tile and found a name inscribed on it.
"Roshi."
Without raising his head, the middle-aged manager continued, "The practice halls are in the mountain behind the Mystic Demon Library. You can go find them yourself. Remember to return the jade strip when the deadline comes, or it will be forcibly taken back together with a fine."
Ezra bowed to show respect. He picked up the Gossamer Steps jade strip and left the Mystic Demon Library heading towards the rear mountain.
In the rear mountain, he saw several unique buildings where disciples were constantly entering and leaving, an exceptionally bustling sight.
The prince followed the directions, eventually arriving before a wide and spacious building. After confirming the instructor\'s name at the front door, he walked in.
Behind the doors was an extremely spacious hall where a dozen or so figures were seated in a circle. At their centre was a tall man who was currently eloquently giving a lecture.
Ezra\'s entrance interrupted the lecture, causing the dozen listening figure to turn their heads and look.
The moment they saw Ezra Zephyr, looks of amusement immediately emerged in their eyes.
Ezra smiled slightly, because he had just seen a familiar figure amongst them. It was the one who got his first disciple quota snatched by Xyr, after a quarrel with Ezra due to Peliok on Energy Mountain, Moshi.
The instructor seated in the centre looked towards Exra and nonchalantly asked, "Who are you?"
He had a thin face and a stern expression in his eyes, while powerful spiritual energy rippled around him.
"Unofficial outer mountain disciple, Ezra Zephyr." His expression remained calm as he cupped his fists together towards the man. His gaze swept towards Moshi before turning back to the inner mountain disciple called Roshi.
The two rather resembled each other, making him begin to realise why Ravina had warned him earlier.
"Ezra Zephyr?" Roshi was taken aback, casting a glance at Moshi as the latter nodded with an icy smile. The former had heard an exaggerated description of how arrogant this kid and his companions from this remote continent were from Moshi earlier, but he never imagined that Ezra, their leader would actually come here and seek guidance from him.
The prince\'s expression was still unchanged as he said in neither an overbearing nor servile tone, "I\'ve chosen the Gossamer Steps technique, and have come here hoping to listen to the key points with regards to it. Here are five spirit jade pieces."
The official outer mountain disciple Roshi swept a nonchalant gaze at Ezra as contempt faintly rose from the corners of his lips. "No need. The class is already full and we won\'t be accepting anyone new for the time being."
Moshi was his younger brother, and since he had a dispute with Ezra, Roshi naturally found Ezra a sore sight.
Roshi\'s words caused laughter to sound in the hall. Most of the disciples here were from the Shiyan Continent and thus looked towards Ezra with mocking eyes.
The prince frowned slightly, however, he was not expecting Roshi to take things so far. "So... this Spirit Devouring Mountain is a wild place. Haha, I like it." He said to himself.
After which, he slowly said, "Isn\'t senior brother Roshi\'s actions a little against the rules?"
A full class was clearly an excuse.
"Oh? A mere unofficial outer mountain disciple thinks he has the right to talk to me about the rules?!" Roshi\'s eyes narrowed slightly, a sneer appearing from the corners of his mouth.
In the next moment, powerful spiritual energy abruptly exploded from his body, forming an overwhelming pressure that loomed towards Ezra Zephyr.
