Chapter 77: Yogacarabhumi Sastra (Part 3)
Lu Shu was really curious and asked Jiang Shuyi, "What exactly are the benefits?"
Jiang Shuyi pondered for a while before replying, "Daoyuan Class is going to start distributing training materials . "
Oh I see, it seems like Jiang Shuyi knew that the students who awoken may be provided additional resources, that's why he made me report immediately?
I can't be sure but I'd probably find out soon .
There were recess breaks in between Daoyuan classes . They taught about "the Kinship of the Three" during class, and after class, everyone could go to the washroom or ask the teachers questions .
Around this period, students who smoked were enjoying themselves . Usually, they had to be stealthy no matter in school or at home .
But they suddenly realized that Daoyuan class did not even care about this matter!
When they wanted to smoke in the day in the past, they had to hide in the washroom . Furthermore, they had to be wary of teachers who suddenly entered the washroom .
But it was different now, no one controlled whether you could smoke in the corridors, and some teachers even stood together to smoke with you!
Not all class form teachers were like Xi Fei with that unapproachable look of his and some were in fact, rather humorous .
This was one of the problems with these form teachers who were not professional teachers but just some relevant employees . They lacked the common sense of teaching management .
These form teachers were chosen from the Heavenly network and were all ex-soldiers with a strong sense of discipline and order but their objectiveness also came on strong- in maintaining stability, imparting knowledge and looking out for any irregularities .
Of course, correcting students' morals and mindset was also required .
But all these did not include anything about banning smoking .
No one could be sure if it was good or bad and the Heavenly Network had already done a lot and to force these ex-soldiers to suddenly turn into a proper educator was an impossible task .

Maybe it was because of this that the Heavenly Network decided to let everyone continue their normal lessons in the day .
The idea was something like . . . hoping for the main cause to be achieved without many mishaps and there was no need to care about anything else .
When Xi Fei asked everyone to report their training progress, Jiang Shuyi still sped ahead with completing 2 cycles within a day and as for Liu Li, he managed to achieve 2 cycles a day too!
Curious, Lu Shu asked Jiang Shuyi, "Could it be that magically rich places like your house are common in Luo Cheng and he had already found one? Or could it magical stones?"
Jiang Shuyi shook his head, "It can't be magic stones . The security of the magical stones is even stricter than that in South Africa over their blood diamonds . And the moment these stones were carved out, each and every one was marked with its ID number and any missing one would incur questions . "
So that was the case . Seemed like the Heavenly Network was emphasizing on the control over training resources . This Heavenly Network, they did not only have people but resources as well .
"So Liu Li's training speed, he must have found a rich location," Lu Shu sighed . In this society, having money could make miracles . For example, finding such a good location within a night and even still had time to complete two cycles, how effective .
"Last night someone had bought a problematic but magically rich location at a high price . The magical energy was especially rich and was a level higher than the place I'm using . I had initially wanted to buy that place but my family discovered a problem and so gave it up," Jiang Shuyi thought and said . This was a hint that the place was bought by Liu Li's family .
At this point in time, the 17-year-old Jiang Shuyi had let his guard down against Lu Shu and revealed that someone in his family had reached a higher level of practice, even being able to tell good locations from bad .

"Problematic but magically rich location? What problems?" Lu Shu was confused, how could a magically rich location have problems?
"That plot of land had a strong Yin energy which is harmful to your organs . Although training could possibly make up for it, there would still be some consequences," Jiang Shuyi explained .
"Oh, so that's what it is . No wonder I've been feeling that Liu Li's liveliness was unlike yesterday's," Lu Shu nodded to represent agreement .
Jiang Shuyi also suggested for him to find a rich location . It need not be that special but some places in the wilderness had richer magical energy than normal places .
But there was no need for that as the energy that entered Lu Shu's body would be instantly rejected by the celestial map . As for training speed . . . he could eat those fruits!
Other had to wait for the Daoyuan class to distribute magic stones or some kind of elixirs but Lu Shu did not as he had his own shop .
Even though this system of his was a bit stingy, but being able to provide for himself without any reliance on others felt really good .
Not having to anticipate anything from others and being able to earn his own living was exactly what Lu Shu wanted . All he needed was his handphone and his brain!
At night, the kinship of the three was hurried over and towards the end of the class, Xi Fei reminded everyone that they could start reading up on the 'Yogacarabhumi Sastra' which would be taught starting tomorrow .
Lu Shu was doubtful . Why keep talking about Daoism, would they one day start on Buddhism as well?
While classes had ended, Lu Shu suddenly noticed the girl called Cao Qingci walking alone through the crowd . The crowd would quietly make a way for her and there was no one within a 1m radius of her .
This kind of situation happening on a girl was quite unique, which was like if atop the mountain and amidst the cloud, but no birds were around .
Lu Shu overhead the crowd's chatters and understood that this girl was from a poor family and was nothing special besides her good looks which earned her a few love letters . But overall, there was nothing much about her that stood out .
But yet after the implementation of the Daoyuan class, her Tier A aptitude had made her the focus of the school .
It was rumored that she had completed 8 cycles and would probably be the first to complete 9 cycles to make one big cycle .
Lu Shu never stopped walking as he was formally going to start learning about swordplay from Li Xianyi . Heavenly Kings, Class Bs- these terms made him very excited about the day he could become such an entity .
Just how strong was Li Xianyi, only by properly learning from him could he find out .
He had also been receiving distress points from Li Xianyi throughout the day . Although each time wasn't much, it was quite frequent, probably happened 10+ times .
This confused Lu Shu as he had no clue what was happening and so was rushing home to find out .
As he reached the alley leading up to the row of houses, he saw Lu Xiaoyu and Li Xianyi staring at each other . Lu Shu stood there blankly and noticed Li Xianyi's resentment towards him . Could the reason of that be Lu Xiaoyu . . .
Lu Shu suddenly realized, could it be a skill that the distress Lu Xiaoyu caused was directly transferred to him in the form of points?!

The Empty Valley Cries Unheard
The stories can be read at any order. Phew, this story was finally finished at last! What could I say, it was a hell of a ride when I wrote it from the beginning to end. Thanks for having me on RR :D All the current chapter had already done a run on Grammarly, so hopefully it'd be more readable. ...kinda feeling lazy so calling off the edits for now. A couple of old / new attempts of combining Horror, Comedy and Absurdist elements. I'm not very good at writing Horror stories but I'd like to try once in a while. Although the first chapter may be completely screwed up, believe me--I mostly write fluffy gay scenes between two girls. It would PROBABLY become a lot lighter as we moved up the chapter count. Not for the faint of heart, but if you're like me who like some absurd or nonsensical stories, this might be right up your alley. Sorry in advance if some of the chapters seem normal lol additional tags : nonsense / absurd / parody

A Demon Lord's Reincarnation
Selina’s got a pretty active imagination. When doing math, she pretends that she is a great detective solving a heinous crime! Ordinary tasks, like a trip upstairs, turn into a perilous adventure to raid a dragon’s cave! She believes that life should be full of wonder and magic, and tries to force the world to cope with her conviction! But when Selina wakes up to remember her past life as the Demon Lord, she has to face the fact that real life is messy, and not anything like what she imagined. With ancient powers stirring, family problems, and the hectic life of a teenager, Selina will have to discover more about herself if she is going to survive the trials ahead. With the help of her best friend and a fair share of luck, she might just get through this alive. Maybe. (Updates (hopefully) on Sundays) This story started out as a flipped isekai. Instead of a hero being pulled into a medieval world, a Demon Lord is pulled into the modern world. It has since moved a bit beyond that initial premise but it is the foundation of the work. Along the way, I threw in dragons, elves, dwarves, and some vampires (but no werewolves, gotta nip that in the bud) all wrapped up in the political drama of a modern world. The story, however, will mainly focus on the characters and their development and as such, is a bit of a slow burn. It may take a couple of chapters to get into. You have been warned! (PS, please show patience for the author's notes. They're a bit crazy and don't always make the most sense. The author's a bit of a ditz. Please ignore him.)

Blood & Noodles
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] As they always have, humanity hunts the gods roaming the world, craving the supernatural power that flows within their veins. Even a drop is zealously guarded, passed from master to student through the ages. It is with this stolen power that the Blooded - those with divine blood coursing through them - grasp beyond mortality and achieve prestige, power, and greatness. Yet, for every fraction of power gained, thousands perish, slain by the gods' supernatural prowess. But everything is beginning to change. Eight years ago, for the first time in human memory, a god was felled. Part-time chef and full-time nuisance Orvi wants nothing to do with gods. Living in a derelict city, his only concerns are ensuring his adopted family's restaurant is prosperous and how to best beat the neighbourhood boys in a fight. If he's lucky, he might even snag a date with the farmer's daughter at the market. But even though he cares nothing for the gods or their blood, the world won't leave him alone forever. Because to reach godhood, one must first leave their humanity behind. *** The first arc of Blood & Noodles follows the adolescent Orvi as he attempts to navigate his rapidly changing home and - by his own definition - protect his family. The story is told almost entirely in the first-person, from the perspective of a teenager who isn't always the sharpest tool in the shed. There are tragic elements, especially in the current arc. It's character-focused and driven, though the protagonist's shenanigans are backdropped by a world operating independently from him. Orvi's a generally light-hearted character, and though the story veers into darker territory, I also want it to be able to make readers smile. Action sequences, despite the fantastical elements, are meant to be grounded and clearly-conveyed; Orvi is a brawler, not a warrior. I'm trying to write a story that's enjoyable to read and flows nicely, mainly because it's more fun to write. I'm also trying to improve my writing, so any feedback, whether positive or negative, is welcome!
