Chapter 213 For Himself
Being among the members of the Dragon Court, Gao Ge finds it hard to fit in.
Especially the others’ eyes make Gao Ge feel as if he is standing in the street naked.
He coughs and calms down. At the very moment, Heaven Dragon, standing on the opposite of the Dragon Court’s members, starts to speak.
“Everyone, listen to me. Each of you has half an hour to finish a 20-km run and meanwhile operate Qi conduction method. No delay is allowed.”
Hearing that, Gao Ge feels so astounded.
Running for 20 miles or operating Qi conduction method is not a big deal for them.
However, to finish both within half an hour is too stringent!
What depresses Gao Ge is that when he regards it as a trick by the Dragon Court to make him suffer, he sees the calm faces of the other members of the Dragon Court, which makes him suddenly realize that it is really a routine training in the Dragon Court.
The morning run starts.
Gao Ge is operating the Qi conduction method with his power of stars while running with efforts. It is impossible for him to reserve the strength, or he won’t be able to complete the task within half an hour.
If he wants to complete the task, he must do his best.
Although he doesn’t know what consequence will follow if he cannot make it, he assumes that the consequence won’t be nice. Now he finally gets to know the iron-like discipline of the Dragon Court.
After running for a while, Gao Ge is not out of breath but his power of stars has been greatly consumed.
Thanks to the fact that he has opened four martial meridians, he can restore his power of stars at a faster speed.
While he is still in a trance, someone gives him ten spiritual stones.
“What are these for?” Gao Ge is a bit confused.
A member of the Dragon Court says, “To help you restore the strength.”
Gao Ge has no idea whether to cry or laugh.
He looks at the ten spiritual stones in front of him and falls into thought.
Very soon, Heaven Dragon comes near him.
“Why don’t you take the time to restore your strength?” Heaven Dragon asks. Gao Ge points at the ten spiritual stones before him and says, “To use these?”
Heaven Dragon frowns.
“The thing in my body... Let’s call it strength then. It has been consumed by 40%. Only these spiritual stones can let me recovered by 1% at most.”
It startles Heaven Dragon, “Yours has only been consumed by 40%?”
Gao Ge nods his head with a bitter smile.
“It seems that I still underestimated you. In this case, will it take at least 10 spiritual jades for you recover your strength?”
Gao Ge nods his head with a smile.
“Then put your hand to it.” Heaven Dragon says.
Gao Ge is surprised and reaches out his hand, “Where are the spiritual jades?”
Heaven Dragon sneers, “Are the spiritual jades you’ve taken from the Heaven School all used up?”
Gao Ge blushes immediately.
Indeed, Heaven Dragon knows a lot of things about him.
It seems of no use faking poverty in front of him.
“Apart from those spiritual jades, you’ve also collected quite some treasures from the Heaven School. I won’t ask you to hand them out. Otherwise, in light of your personality, it will be even worse than to kill you.” Heaven Dragon says, “You don’t need to attend the morning exercise in future.”
Gao Ge is overjoyed.
Heaven Dragon leaves while shaking his head, “We do have many spiritual jades, but they are not enough for you to use in this way... You may as well do your own business.”
Gao Ge is speechless.
It is a good thing that he doesn’t have to attend the morning exercise.
Yet, he feels as if being insulted somehow...
He really wants to shout out loud.
Is it his fault to be able to take in much aura?
Gao Ge enters his room quietly. After all, it is a bit unbelievable to take out ten spiritual jades in front of so many people. Neither does he want to expose too many secrets of his.
Meng Fang walks to the front of Heaven Dragon, grinning happily.
“I didn’t know the Dragon Court could be so mean?”
Heaven Dragon looks at Meng Fang and says impatiently, “It is the first time that I’ve seen such a person who can consume spiritual jades so fast. Ten spiritual stones are more than sufficient for ordinary members of the Dragon Court.”
Meng Fang nods his head, saying, “I agree, but you’ve left out one thing. Do the ordinary members of the Dragon Court all exhaust their strength after the morning exercise?”
Heaven Dragon rubs his nose and smiles without saying anything.
“Lord Heaven Dragon, do we still need to stay in Dongzhou?” Meng Fang changes the topic.
“Yeah, but we need to go to the Heaven School first.” Heaven Dragon hedges.
“This is only a temporary band-aid...” Meng Fang whispers.
Heaven Dragon falls into silent thought.
After taking out ten spiritual jades to fully recover his power of stars, Gao Ge walks out of the room. Right at the moment, he is asked by Heaven Dragon to go over there.
As Heaven Dragon tells him that they are going to the Heaven School, Gao Ge can’t help frowning.
“Are we making trouble for the Heaven School?”
“Yes.” Heaven Dragon answers honestly.
“I don’t think it is a good idea.” Gao Ge says without hesitation.
“Because you think that you owe Master Guanshan one?” Heaven Dragon says meaningfully.
Gao Ge doesn’t bother to fake anything in front of Heaven Dragon so he just says bluntly, “That’s one of the reasons. In my view, it is no point doing that. The Heaven School is only a puppet or a tool. Without the Heaven School, there could be Earth School, Left School or Right School. Do we have to eliminate all the schools that those people have controlled?”
“Before we have other solutions, this is the only thing we can do.” Surprisingly, Heaven Dragon stays calm.
Gao Ge suddenly has nothing to do.
He is right. It is of little significance to eliminate the Heaven School.
However, it is also a good thing to just let the Heaven School go as it is, unless they can find those people and get rid of them for good!
“Lord Heaven Dragon, who are those people?” Gao Ge asks again.
Heaven Dragon stares at him in silence. Then he chuckles, “Find the answer on your own if you are curious.”
After saying that, he turns around and leaves.
Gao Ge puts on a long face.
A voice comes from behind him.
“It is for your own good.”
Gao Ge turns around to stare at Xia Lu in confusion.
Xia Lu says, “When you find the answer, you will be capable enough to handle them by then. If you cannot find the answer, it means that you are not capable enough. In that case, it is better for you not to know the answer.”
Gao Ge looks at Xia Lu and thinks for a while, finding what she says quite reasonable.
“Come on. Let’s go to the Heaven School first.” Xia Lu says.
Gao Ge agrees.
Yet, he doesn’t look spirited enough.
Xia Lu pats Gao Ge’s shoulder, saying, “If you really don’t know how to face it, you don’t have to go.”
“Do you think I will not go?” Gao Ge laughs.
Xia Lu is finally relieved and nods her head, “Good. Nothing is wrong with your brain. Let’s go.”
On the way to the Heaven School, Gao Ge is thinking about a problem.
He is pondering over a solution.
He is trying to find a solution for the Heaven School, Dragon Court and himself.
