“Big Brother w.a.n.g, don’t joke around.” Xinxue blushed and hurriedly denied: “This is our Study Room’s new teacher, Young n.o.ble Li.”

　　The man was surprised to hear this and turned around at Li Qiye while continuously scratching his head like a monk trying to touch his hair. Their place never had a teacher before so this was quite unexpected.

　　Despite his burly stature and clearly being older, he was a respectful person and quickly went up to Li Qiye and bowed with a smile: “Please forgive me for the misunderstanding, Teacher. I’m used to joking around with her.”

　　He apologized with sincerity so Li Qiye nodded.

　　“My name is w.a.n.g Zuodong, also known as Goldloop Fist. I’ve joined Study Room for a long time now. Please take care of me in the future. I look forward to your guidance.” The man enthusiastically introduced himself and gave Li Qiye a quick hug. [1]

　　 Li Qiye a.s.sessed him before calmly responding: “Gather your stuff. The first cla.s.s will start today.”

　　Goldloop didn’t dare to show any slight and gathered his stuff before following Li Qiye.

　　In this world of books, one could find literature works everywhere - the caves or even beneath the ground. Moreover, they were available for all students at the academy. Anyone could come for a read.

　　Alas, few actually did so because they had no interest in wasting their time with history or fine arts.

　　“Sigh, Old Liu is finding more stuff but there are too many here. Not to mention graduation, he can read for the rest of his life and won’t be able to touch the surface.” Goldloop commented as Xinxue brought them to a dark chamber.

　　This large hall was especially quiet too just like the rest of Study Room. They could hear a series of coughs echoing inside this chamber. It was as if the guy was about to cough his lung out.

　　Shelves lined them up among the walls with books everywhere. There was a unique moldy smell as if one was basking in an ocean of texts.

　　After walking through lines of shelves, they found an old man in a corner of the chamber. He sat in front of a table with a flickering oil lamp not doing its job too well.

　　The light illuminating his face made it even more yellow. His posture was terrible as he flipped through the pages while murmuring: “Gold spleen, gold spleen…”

　　He occasionally coughed quite hard, causing his bent back to hunch down even more. The guy was too focused to notice Li Qiye’s group.

　　“Old Liu.” Xinxue called out.

　　He still didn’t hear her and continued flipping the pages.

　　“If you want to find ‘Gold Spleen and Jade Needle’, you are looking at the wrong spot.” Li Qiye said flatly. [2]

　　“Boom!” The book in the old man’s hand fell to the ground as he seemed to be struck by lightning. He stood up and stared intensely at Li Qiye, petrified.

　　“Old Liu, Old Liu, come back.” Xinxue waved her hand in front of the old man’s face.

　　“How, how do you know?” The old man finally asked in astonishment.

　　“I know everything in Study Room.” Li Qiye nonchalantly said.

　　“How should I address you, Young n.o.ble.” The old man regained his composure.

　　“Old Liu, I got good news for you. This Young n.o.ble is our new teacher, you have someone to ask for help now.” Goldloop smiled and said.

　　The old man’s reaction was just like Goldloop’s earlier, shocked. He bowed towards Li Qiye and said: “I have eyes but couldn’t see Mt. Tai and your arrival. My name is Liu Jinsheng. Others call me Old Liu.”
