Chapter 188

Chapter 188

The length of the Mother River was uncommon knowledge, but to the students present, it shouldnt be difficult as they were the best of their generation in their respective clans, after all. They should have read a lot from a young age except for disciples from a few clans like the Chor or Wong Clan, which didnt mandate their disciples to study.

But now, Woo Nim was asking about the precise source of information, which consisted of the exact page and paragraph number.

This stunned the entire class. The students here were intelligent teens that would top their cohorts without a sweat in any other institution, but now, they could only sit on their chairs and think hard about the answer.

Just then, a shout came from a teenager whose hair was the striking colour of autumn leaves. Unfair! What kind of question is this?! Youre discriminating against gliphers!

His hair colour symbolised the Wong Clan; not the Southern Ping Wong Clan, but the mighty Mad Tiger Wong Clan of South Imperial City, which housed the Ferocious Tiger Soldiers and Lam Chuns General Wong! He was the most outstanding cultivator of the Wong Clan, Wong Chow Yip.

Never have the Cloud Palace decided the class captain with such an irrelevant question even in the past! Wong Chow Yip complained loudly.

All the students ignored him, not only because they knew that this was characteristic of the Wong Clan, but also because they agreed with his words.

As the best in their respective clans and organisations, every one of them were arrogant teenagers who thought a physical competition was the best way to elect the class captain. The winner would take the position since everyone stood a chance in the competition if they fought hard enough. Contrary to their expectation, most didnt stand a chance with such a question being asked!

Once again, Woo Nim took a while before she responded. Questions for every cohort are decided by their class mentor, and as your class mentor, I have the final say. Theres nothing I can do about the questions asked by the mentors of other cohorts, Woo Nim replied slowly.

It was arrogant, but with Woo Nim being so sincere and serious, the students knew that she meant her words, and she wasnt making their lives hard on purpose.

Wong Chow Yip was shocked by Woo Nims reply. I dont think anyone can answer such a question. Lets change the question, or just fight. Simple. She huffed. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Like Kwan Mok Man, the Kwan Clan was less prosperous than most other clans. Only three members were in the Kwan Clan, namely Kwan Mok Mun, his wife, and his son, Kwan Shan Chuen.

Under the guidance of his father, Kwan Shan Chuens character was identical to his fatherintelligent with great self-discipline. Many in the world compared the Kwan father and son, who had no cultivation talent to the Hoklo Chui Clan, the clan that gained extreme success with their intelligence.

But it was discovered that both parties were incomparable as the Kwan father and son pair was too unique to be compared. If you used one word to describe them, it would be the word justice. The Kwan Clan valued justice almost obstinately, which was something the Chui Clan didnt, and why the Kwan Clan was capable of much more.

Currently, Kwan Shan Chuen was looking at Woo Nim seriously. There are many books with records on the Mother River, and the numbers on each book vary. But after much thought, there is only one book that records Mother Rivers total length as seven thousand and thirty-six kilometres. Classic of Mountains and Seas, page fifty-three, chapter two.

The river of the South, the origin of the Souths vitality, spans seven thousand and thirty-six kilometres. The same river is the origin of the Norths tears. They call her the Red River, and many cries for loved ones are commonly heard along the river.

Am I correct? Kwan Shan Chuen looked at Woo Nim, wanting to check his answer.

Indeed the Worlds Classic. You are?

Kwan Shan Chuen.

Youll be the class captain of this cohort of the Cloud Palace outer sect class leader.

There are many books about the Mother River; why this one? Kwan Shan Chuen asked.

What he meant was why did Woo Nim choose Classic of Mountains and Seas to ask the class out of all the books with records on the Mother River? There were tons of books in this world with such records, after all.
