Instructor Yan stared at Mo Hua’s exam paper, thought for a moment, then endorsed the paper with a “Class A” character.
After grading the other disciples’ Formation skills, he paused for a moment, recalled something, and flipped back to the previous papers, promoting all the disciples who had scored “Class B” to “Class A”.
Now, there were more disciples than just Mo Hua who had achieved “Class A”.
After finishing the grading, Instructor Yan sat at his desk deep in thought for a long time, murmuring to himself:
“It seems I cannot stay at Tongxian Gate any longer…”
When the Formation exam papers were handed out, Mo Hua saw the “Class A” on his and nodded, but he wondered if the other Qi Refinement Realm disciples really could have drawn the Water Controlling Formation…
This was a Formation that required six Formation Patterns, after all.
Mo Hua made a point of inquiring and found out that some other disciples had also received Class A grades. Aside from the surprise, he also felt,
“There are heavens beyond this heaven, and people beyond this person; my own level in Formation is not yet sufficient—I must not become complacent!”
What Mo Hua did not know was that his “Class A” was different from the others’ “Class A”.
His “Class A” was a genuine “Class A”, whereas the “Class A” of the others was actually inflated by Instructor Yan…
Afterward, Mo Hua planned to continue his Cultivation at Tongxian Gate, to learn more about Formation, and then after some time, to consider choosing a Cultivation Technique. But half a month later, he heard something extremely absurd:
“Instructor Yan is going to leave Tongxian Gate. From now on, the Outer Gate will no longer teach Formation…”
Mo Hua stood still, in shock.
No Formation to learn from…
Mo Hua went to find Instructor Yan, who looked at him with a complex expression. He said very little, only telling Mo Hua to return and come to find him in a few days.
After Mo Hua left, Instructor Yan went to see Manager Mo.
“Do you have any news about the matter I asked you to look into?”
Manager Mo passed a letter to Instructor Yan, “The person you’re looking for is no longer in Tongxian City. Here are some clues about him, but I cannot guarantee if they are accurate.”
“Thank you.”
Manager Mo hesitated, then asked, “Are you really planning to leave Tongxian Gate?”
“It’s not just Tongxian Gate; I’m also leaving Tongxian City.”
“Will you come back here in the future?”
“It’s hard to say,” replied Instructor Yan with a bitter smile, “like you said, let’s leave it to fate.”
Manager Mo had words of persuasion on the tip of his tongue, but thinking better of it, he didn’t say anything. He knew persuasion would be futile.
“What about that kid, Mo Hua? What are you planning to do about him?” Manager Mo asked, “Without you, there is no one in Tongxian Gate competent enough to teach him…”
“I have my plans. The talent of that child, Mo Hua, in Formation…”
Is quite terrifying…
Instructor Yan thought to himself, but he did not say it out loud. Instead, he said, “…His talent is quite decent, it would be a pity if he couldn’t learn Formation. Since we have the relationship of instructor and disciple, I will find a way to take care of what comes after.”
Manager Mo nodded, then looked at his senior brother, unsure if there will be another meeting in the future. He had so much to say but did not know how to start.
The lifespan of a Cultivator stretches very long, as do the goodbyes.
In the end, they looked at each other silently, only to part with a cup of tea rather than wine, drinking a toast together.
“Take care!” said Manager Mo.
“Take care!”
Instructor Yan nodded, then left Fated Gathering under the gaze of Manager Mo and. disappeared into the bustling streets.
Without teaching Formation, staying at the Outer Gate of Tongxian Gate had lost its meaning. Moreover, the issue with the Spirit Pivot Formation Chart had always been on Instructor Yan’s mind, and he would not give up on it.
Before leaving Tongxian City, the last thing Instructor Yan had to do was to find a Formation Master for Mo Hua.
He prepared some fine wine and tea as gifts, and knocked on the main door of a large cave dwelling on the North Street of Tongxian City.
This dwelling was one of the grandest on the street, luxurious and majestic.
The master of the cave dwelling was one of the two first-class Formation Masters in Tongxian City, with the surname Luo, whom the general Cultivators respectfully called Master Luo.
Instructor Yan presented the gifts and explained his purpose.
Master Luo had a good relationship with Instructor Yan, and upon hearing this, he expressed his doubt, “Does this child truly possess such talent that even Old Brother Yan has come personally to plead his case?”
Instructor Yan showed Master Luo the Bright Fire Formation Diagram that Mo Hua had drawn, “This is the formation he drew when he was at the third level of Qi Refinement.”
He did not bring out the Water Controlling Formation Diagram with the five and a half formation patterns that Mo Hua had drawn because he didn’t want to draw too much attention.
Furthermore, generally speaking, at the third level of Qi Refinement, being able to draw a formation with three formation patterns already considered exceptional talent.
Master Luo’s eyes brightened, and he nodded, “Indeed, it’s quite good!”
After examining the Bright Fire Formation Diagram, Master Luo inquired, “May I ask which clan’s descendant he is? The Qian Family? The An Family, or the Chen Family?”
