Night of the Broken Gliph-Chapter 199
Chapter 199
The Blue Skies Rank was for two-chambered state cultivators worldwide, while three-chambered cultivators fell under the Divine Skies Rank.
However, there wasnt any ranking system for cultivators above the four-chambered state.
Four-chambered cultivators all have similar strength, especially gliphists who have broken through the hundred-gliphic state, which results in them improving at an unpredictable rate. To rank their abilities, we would need to know their personal gliph, and that is hard to come by.
The Cloud Ranks presence serves to motivate cultivators to try and get on the rank and be known by the world. But four-chambered or hundred-gliphic state cultivators are already considered elites and no longer have to be limited by unnecessary rankings.
Lets get back to the main topic, stated Woo Nim. Be it the Celestial Weapon Rank or the Cloud Rank, the librarian of every generation, which in this case is Great Master Cheuk Kwun, is the person responsible for it.
Woo Nims words made all the students, even the Southern students who were usually busy looking down on the Northerners, freeze in their seats.
The Cloud Palace had been around for over a thousand years, and the Cloud Rank was one reason why it remained well respected by all even if such a long time had passed despite being a mysterious institution. They seemed to be omnipotent. Be it powerful yet secretive weapons or elites that had just left seclusion, they would be ranked on the Cloud Rank as soon as they ended their isolation. Some elites even swore they had never shown their skills or abilities, but the Cloud Palace still somehow knew where they stood.
The Cloud Palace was a mystery themselves. They were like a pair of eyes in the sky, observing the world secretly. Nobody could keep calm when they heard that Teacher Cheuk was the mysterious person ranking the cultivators.
Its up to Teacher Cheuk if he wants to take in a disciple. Dont force him too much, or hell really stop teaching your class gliphism, Woo Nim said calmly. Well start class now.
Compared to Teacher Cheuks lesson, Woo Nim taught just like how they usually would in institutions, reciting the content from books from her memory. She also added her own understanding. Her lessons were conducted just like how Woo Nim said they would, and it was a meaningful lesson to Chui Yim.
Due to Chui Tin, Chui Yim had read a lot as a child, but he merely had rote memory of all the content, and he didnt actually digest and understand much of it. Just like the memorable Nim Hois Life Story which contained his enlightenment of gliphism, it was tough to understand it thoroughly if you only memorised the story without experiencing it.
And Woo Nims lesson was just like a revision for Chui Yim with an added explanation.
Woo Nim had also previously mentioned that her subjects would be tough. Still, the knowledge wasnt compulsory for gliphists or gliphers, so there was only a small group of students listening attentively, and all of them were gliphists. Meanwhile, the gliphers yawned on.
Gliphists were required to have much knowledge in gliphism, so most of them wore the aura of scholars. In comparison, gliphers relied on their intuition for battle, which was the same when they created their gliphilities. Gliphers skilled in gliphism and knowledgeable were as rare as hens teeth.
However, Woo Nim didnt force them to pay attention or reprimand them. And the day soon ended.
Many students were already looking forward to the class the next day, which would be Cheuk Kwuns lesson.
The timetable of Cloud Palace outer sect was set in a way that odd weekdays were Woo Nims lesson while even weekdays were Cheuk Kwuns. Thus, it would be Cheuk Kwuns lesson tomorrow, and after yesterday, the students were looking forward to it.
It was only now that Chui Yim realised Chor Kwong Laan was a Cloud Palace outer sect student. He couldnt help but curse himself for being careless; first he missed Lam Zaa, and now Chor Kwong Laan! But soon, he came up with an explanation that he was just too focused in class.
When he saw Chor Kwong Laan showing him a sinister smile, he shook his head and turned to Kam Chin Kee next to him. Do you want to test that toy out with me?
Nope. Kam Chin Kee shook his head after staring at Chui Yim with a complicated look. With that, he took his leave.
Wasnt he the one who kept wanting to rent my room? This must be puberty, making someone hard to guess.
Just then, Chor Kwong Laan approached Chui Yim. He stuck out his finger and slid it over his neck. Youre dead later. I suggest you complain to Young Master Chor as soon as possible, he whispered to Chui Yim, who pretended not to hear him and left after packing his stuff.
A figure at the side frowned at this scene.
When Chui Yim was heading back to his residence, the figures were already waiting for him.
I cant tell if youre brave or stupid. How dare you come again? Let me see how many times you can escape. Chor Fung laughed evilly as he shook his head, hatred written across his face.
Im not planning to run. Chui Yim shrugged.
His reply surprised Chor Fung and Chor Kwong Laan, but they believed that he was merely acting tough and turned to the other Chor Clan disciples. Get him. With that, the other disciples got ready to make their move.
Chui Yim immediately reached for the jade on his waist but just before both parties could do anything, a stroke of red light descended from the sky!
Boom!
The red light landed on the ground between Chui Yim and the Chor Clan disciples, separating both parties.
Arent you guys embarrassed to gang up against a gliphist who hasnt even broken through his first chamber? The cold voice that rang out gave the Chor Clan members a slap on their faces.
Who is it! Chor Fung snickered and shouted.
A figure walked towards them slowly from behind Chui Yim. It was a tanned teenage girl Chui Yim recognised as the girl who wanted to chase him away. Like always, the girls ponytail bounced as she walked, giving her refreshing vibes.
Hmph. How dare a Northerner poke their nose in our business. Unlike Chui Yim, Chor Kwong Laan was aware of every student in his class, and he knew she was Mung Si from the Blazing Skies Mountain, the young genius of the Mung Clan.
But Chor Kwing Laan wasnt deceived by her looks. She was currently the female gliphist with the most potential in the North, and many people put her name next to the fifth teachers. Besides her talent, she was someone with great self-discipline.
Born with double arm innate chambers like the famous Yeung Tin Hun, she held back the urge to cultivate energliph and went to the best place for cultivation in the Blazing Skies Mountain, which was famous amongst gliphist and gliphers, the Chamber Refinement Cave.
