All the heavens, it all began with the master paying homage to the sage at night.

Chapter 9: The eldest brother said he wasn't good at fighting.

Su Yu's becoming a disciple of the academy's back mountain did not cause much of a stir in the Tang Dynasty, because very few people knew about it, and the academy also intended to protect Su Yu's identity as a Heavenly Master.

On the contrary, Chen Pi Pi, who came from Xiling, became the focus of the entire cultivation world. His achievement in the Six Examinations was something few people could achieve in the history of the Tang Dynasty since its founding. Chen Pi Pi succeeded. He was only thirteen or fourteen years old and was a cultivator standing at the peak of the Dongxuan realm.

The word "genius" is insufficient to describe Chen Pipi's talent. He is unique in the world, a rare flower blooming in the thousands of years of Taoism, and the pride of Taoism in this era.

But who would have thought that such a prodigy would give up his status as a disciple of the Daoist Zhi Shou Guan and choose to leave Xiling to come to the academy and become a disciple there?

Confucius truly deserves to be called the teacher of all ages. Even the most outstanding Taoist talents, deeply influenced by Taoist culture, would be willing to give up their prestigious positions in Taoism and choose to join the academy as Confucius's disciples.

As the sun rises, carrying a slight buzz, the body relaxes, the mind softens, and one's gaze towards people and scenery becomes more tender.

Muyou sat across the table, munching on a corn cob, and quietly recounted the interesting stories from the back of the academy.

"When Xiao Shiyi first came to the back mountain of the academy, his second senior brother asked him to persuade Xiao Shi and Xiao Jiu not to put all their energy into music. Then something very interesting happened."

"At first, Xiao Shi and Xiao Jiu were willing to debate with their eleventh junior brother, but they couldn't win against him. So they came up with a plan: they pretended to be persuaded and then took turns debating with him, keeping him from sleeping and making him admit defeat on his own."

"The eleventh junior brother was also stubborn and held on for more than seven days, which made the tenth junior brother unable to bear it any longer. The tenth junior brother angrily tied him up."

"The second senior brother originally wanted to stand up for the eleventh junior brother and teach the ninth and tenth junior brothers a lesson, but in the end, the teacher gave the order, and the eldest senior brother who rushed back stopped him, so the matter was dropped."

"They reconciled after their senior brother intervened."

Su Yu listened attentively. He hadn't expected there to be such interesting things in the back mountain of the academy. These reclusive masters in the back mountain of the academy were not entirely subsisting on wind and dew. They were originally just ordinary people who lived among mortals, but each of them had their own ideals.

"I remember that at the time, my second senior brother was so angry that he wanted to draw his sword against my eldest senior brother. If it weren't for the teacher's instructions, my second senior brother might have actually made a move."

Does the Second Master disagree with the First Master?

Su Yu did not have such a memory. In his impression, the Second Master and the First Master had always been very harmonious.

"I'll tell you a secret, but don't tell Second Senior Brother. Actually, after that incident, Eldest Senior Brother said that Second Senior Brother is the best fighter in the back mountains of our academy. If it really came down to a fight, even he wouldn't be a match for him. Eldest Senior Brother said that he's not good at fighting."

Su Yu couldn't help but twitch his lips. The eldest master had already stepped into the realm of the fifth level of the Boundless Realm, yet he was still making such jokes. However, the second master's combat strength was indeed a mystery. As long as he was given enough strong people to hone his sword, he would become stronger and stronger, and might even be able to defeat Liu Bai, who was known as the strongest sword saint in the human world, with his sword.

It's hard to say who is the most powerful among the First Master, the Second Master, and Liu Bai, because each of them is unique, and in their respective time, they are the strongest in the world.

"By the way, junior brother, there's something I need to tell you. You'll soon be a senior brother, not a junior brother anymore."

"A genius from Xiling achieved top marks in all six subjects of the academy's entrance exam. The senior disciple sent word that he also wants to become a disciple of the teacher."

"Let me tell you, junior brother, some of the questions on the academy's entrance exam were set by me personally. They were particularly difficult. I deliberately made things difficult for those students. Even if I went up to answer them myself, I wouldn't have a perfect correct answer that would get the instructors and professors to give me an A grade."

"But that kid, I don't know what he wrote, actually got the teachers in the academy to approve of him and even gave him a top score."

Su Yu never expected that Mu You would have such a cunning side.

"The top six grades are indeed impressive. If I were to take the exam, I probably wouldn't even be able to get into the front courtyard of the academy."

Mu You laughed and said, "How could that be? If Junior Brother were to take the exam, I'm confident I could make sure he passes everything."

Su Yu asked in surprise, "Would Senior Sister help me cheat, or show me the exam questions beforehand?"

Muyou shook her head and said, "No, but I can teach you some things in advance. I'll be your teacher, and you definitely won't fail."

Su Yu forced a smile and said, "Then I will definitely study hard and live up to Seventh Senior Sister's expectations."

Before his transmigration, Su Yu was neither a PhD nor a master's degree holder, nor a college student. He had never attended a higher education institution and even dropped out of school early due to family circumstances. He had been struggling to make a living on his own since he was very young.

His learning experience was not pleasant. If he had had a beautiful senior like his seventh senior sister, he probably would have worked harder and achieved good grades.

After finishing their meal, the two went to the old bookstore together. Su Yu wanted to fill his mind with the books of this world and find the meaning of his cultivation.

With Muyou by her side, Su Yu, an orphan, could tell that he had something on his mind. She wanted to give him as much companionship as possible so that he could feel the warmth from the back mountain of the academy.

The second floor of the old bookstore.

After Su Yu and Mu You paid their respects to their third senior sister, they met the chubby boy from Xiling again.

Chen Pipi stayed alone in the corner, holding a scroll with the title "Wu Shanyang on the Haoran Sword" on the cover.

Haoran Sword, Su Yu could hardly forget this name. The person who created this sword technique was the legendary junior uncle Ke Haoran from the academy.

Ke Haoran once suppressed the three unknowable realms of Buddhism, Taoism, and Demonism, making him the undisputed supreme power in the human world.

Mu You didn't know Chen Pi Pi, but Su Yu did. He introduced him to Mu You, saying, "Senior Sister, this is Chen Pi Pi, a prodigy from Xiling."

Mu You was taken aback, her eyes widening as she looked over. Seeing Chen Pi Pi sitting on the ground, looking chubby, she couldn't help but exclaim, "What a fat lad! Is this our junior brother? How do you know him?"

Su Yu said, "It was Xiaoyu who took me to see him, and he admitted that he came from Xiling."

The two spoke softly, but the second floor of the old bookstore was spacious. Although Chen Pipi couldn't hear what they were saying, he still looked up and noticed them.

"Greetings, gentlemen." Chen Pipi placed the book on the bookshelf, stood up, and bowed to Su Yu and the other man.

Su Yu was only at the Unperturbed Realm, but Chen Pi Pi was very certain that Su Yu's identity was not ordinary. An ordinary Unperturbed Realm cultivator could not possibly put pressure on him, unless Su Yu was not an ordinary person.

When Chen Pipi called Su Yu "senior brother" last time, it was because he thought Su Yu was a disciple of the master in the back mountain of the academy.

Su Yu returned the greeting with a cupped hand and said, "Let me reintroduce myself. I am the twelfth in the back mountain of the academy, so you can call me the twelfth senior brother. The senior sister next to me is the seventh in the back mountain of the academy, and her name is Mu You. You can call her the seventh senior sister."

"The one sitting by the east window, practicing calligraphy in the style of 'Hairpin Flower,' is our third senior sister."

Chen Pipi's face lit up with joy. Su Yu's words made him realize that the back mountain of the academy was willing to accept him and that he could become a disciple of the back mountain of the academy.

"Greetings to Twelfth Senior Brother, greetings to Seventh Senior Sister."

Everything returned to normal. Su Yu was added to the back mountain of the academy, but Chen Pi Pi still became the junior brother of the back mountain of the academy, only he went from being the twelfth to the thirteenth.

The martial arts world outside the academy was enraged by Chen Pi Pi's joining the academy. There were even powerful figures at the Knowing Destiny Realm surrounding the academy, but none of them dared to set foot in this pure land.

There are countless powerful figures in the Daoist sect, yet none dare to utter a single cry in front of the academy's gate: "Return our Daoist sect's prodigy!"

Chen Pipipi, the chubby boy, was overjoyed to be able to join the academy and call a cultivator at the Unperturbed Realm "senior brother".
