Chronicles of the Lazy Sovereign Novel - Chapter 176

**Chapter 176: Holgazán Finds his Rival (1)**

Where did it all go wrong?

Eon Hyo was reflecting on the origin of the current situation.

Should I have stopped Hwangbo Junggeol, or shouldn’t I have applied for the new class?

But no matter how many times I thought about it, the conclusion was the same.

If he could return to the past, he would have fled without looking back the moment he met Wei Yanho. His decision to approach him because of his friendship with Plum Blossom Sword Spirit was his biggest mistake.

That’s why I was suffering from this situation.

♪ Swish! ♪

A sound tore the air resounded. “Only when you heard it would you think that someone had fired a powerful arrow, but surprisingly, the sound came from a small stone the size of a child’s fist.

It is absurd for a stone to produce such a sound, but Eon Hyo could not laugh, because that stone, which sounded like an arrow fired by an expert archer with all his inner energy, aimed at his face.

“Aaaaaaaaaaaah!”

Eon Hyo screamed desperately as he twisted. “If I hit him head-on, his mother would not recognize him when he returned home.

Probably the second option, but ten thousand times more likely.

The stone, thrown with great force, grazed Eon Hyo’s face by little. Air pressure made his skin tremble.

♪ Bang! ♪

The outer wall of the training camp exploded as if it had received the impact of a projectile.

“Hahahaha…”

Eon Hyo laughed. “He couldn’t help but laugh.”

A stone strong enough to destroy a wall of solid bricks was thrown into someone’s face, how could he not laugh?

If I’d hit him…

No, I didn’t need to think about it.

“Kuaaaaaaaaaaak!”

Someone was hit by the stone and flew out like a frog hit by a slingshot.

‘Was it Jungjin Eon, that guy?’

Jungjin Eon, who had seen the sky, would be different.

Eon Hyo looked back at the chaos at the training camp.

“Aaaaaah!”

“S… save me! Please!”

“What a madman this class suggested!”

Fortunately, Hwangbo Junggeol had already received two stones and had lost consciousness. If he were conscious, he would have been beaten by other students.

Eon Hyo’s gaze went to the stand.

Wei Yanho was lying on the bed, with a sweet in his mouth, throwing and catching stones with one hand.

♪ Munch munch ♪

Seeing that he was still eating, Eon Hyo felt a growing anger.

“Aaaaaah! Now!”

♪ Bang! ♪

When the stone Wei Yanho had thrown hit a student against the wall, Eon Hyo’s anger suddenly calmed down. So much so that he thought, ‘People can be so calm.’

His anger control disorder was being forcibly treated.

“Hmm…”

Wei Yanho said with an expression of discontent:

“Since everyone is so far away, I have to use a lot of force. If they got closer, it would be easier for everyone.”

It would be more realistic to ask them to stick their heads in the mouth of a cannon or in the mouth of a tiger.

If someone is throwing deadly stones, who would approach?

As if they agreed with Eon Hyo, they were all stuck to the outer wall of the training camp, with no intention of getting close. The fact that no one fled the training camp was brave enough.

Half of the students had already disappeared.

Half of the remaining ones were on the ground, and the other half had been thrown somewhere.

When Wei Yanho stretched out his hand again, Musan, who was watching, handed him a stone.

“E… wait!”

Eon Hyo screamed desperately.

“Yes?”

Wei Yanho stopped his hand at Eon Hyo’s protest. If he had followed, the stone would have thrown someone else into heaven. His body trembled.

“What kind of training is this?”

“Swipe stones.”

“…I didn’t ask you that. What’s the point?”

“Serve.”

Wei Yanho rebuked Eon Hyo, who did not understand.

“B… well, it works. But I think there are many better, more effective and safer training methods. Why do we have to do this?”

“This is all I know.”

“…….”

Eon Hyo ran out of words and looked at Wei Yanho with a silly expression.

“That’s why I said study alone.”

Right.

But those who couldn’t stand it and asked for training were now on the ground, unconscious and drooling.

“But it was you who asked for training. I am lazy, but I know I must work when necessary.”

Wei Yanho knew that if he tried to take the money effortlessly, he was a thief.

“Ah, and… this is really effective.”

“I have a question.”

“Yes?”

“If you say that’s the only technique you know, does that mean you did this training too?”

“Yes.”

“How long did you do it?”

Wei Yanho’s expression became serious. Thinking about it, it was not easy to determine the exact time.

“I think I was beaten for two years…”

Eon Hyo’s expression turned to amazement.

Was it wrong to hit people with stones for two years, or was it wrong to survive that?

‘Survive?’

Suddenly, he felt that he had discovered the reason why Wei Yanho was strange.

“N…we will also have to do this for two years?”

“Well, how much do you want to improve?”

“……then?”

“After a couple of months, you’ll get a little better. Later, you’ll jump three meters when you feel something coming in while you sleep. If you get to that level, no one will hit you.”

“…….”

Eon Hyo felt deep sadness as he looked at Wei Yanho.

Wei Yanho had done this for two years?

That’s why he was so strong.

Unlike Wei Yanho, who had faced nearly a hundred students, his teacher had only beaten him for two years.

‘He is a great teacher.’

His anger calmed down a bit.

“Just a little more. There’s not much time left.”

Wei Yanho looked at the setting sun and took another stone.

“Be careful.”

♪ Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh! ♪

Your words and actions don’t match, crazy!

Eon Hyo twisted desperately as he saw the stone approaching.

“Good job.”

Wei Yanho waved with his hand.

When the sun set, Wei Yanho rose suddenly. I Seolhwa picked up the sweets Wei Yanho had left, and Musan collected the stones from the ground using the motionless method of diamond.

If Shaolin’s elders knew that their technique was used to collect stones, they would be furious, but fortunately, there was no Shaolin instructor at the Academy of the Down Dragon.

“The class will start in time tomorrow.”

Wei Yanho said that and left the training camp.

“……what happened?”

Eon Hyo shivered at the students moaning on the floor.

In one day.

More than half of the students were seriously injured. Eon Hyo was lucky not to have been beaten, but if he had been, he would have been in the same situation.

‘Do we have to do this for two more months?’

“H… Hyung.”

“Yes?”

Peng Dohyeong approached Eon Hyo limping. “He had probably been hit in the leg.

“Gong Hyung and Choi Hyung resigned.”

“W… really?”

Eon Hyo, who had just thought of quitting, looked at Peng Dohyeong with surprise.

“Does this training make sense?”

“……I don’t know.”

Being honest, if it doesn’t work, it’s even more strange. Academy theory and combat have no risk of injury. Therefore, tension tends to decrease.

But Wei Yanho’s blows were scary enough to simulate a real battle.

Then it’ll definitely work, but…

‘We could get sick or die sooner!’

He wanted to flee, but felt unjust and hurt in his pride.

“Dohyeong-ah.”

“Yes, Hyung.”

“Before we applied for class, did we not promise to strengthen ourselves regardless of humiliation or suffering?”

An expression of confusion appeared on Eon Hyo’s face.

“H… Hyung.”

“Wei Yanho said he had been strengthened this way. If we continue this training, we will become much stronger.”

I wasn’t sure, though.

“But Hyung, we will become invalids before.”

“Humph!”

Eon Hyo said with anger:

“In the martial world, weakness is worse than being an invalid. I will become strong even if I lose my limbs. Haven’t you seen what it means to be strong?”

Peng Dohyeong nodded slowly.

He remembered the image of Wei Yanho defeating the Ghost and Sword Demons, who even the Spirit of the Sword of the Plum Flower and others could not defeat without risking their lives.

Eon Hyo stated:

“I will do anything to strengthen myself. If I leave this and the others become stronger than me, I will have nightmares all my life. And the students of the academy I know will not give up this training.”

“Right, Hyung.”

“Let’s do it!”

“Yes!”

The eyes of Eon Hyo and Peng Dohyeong burned with determination.

The next day.

“…….”

Peng Dohyeong looked at Eon Hyo with a strange expression.

Eon Hyo avoided Peng Dohyeong’s gaze with an uncomfortable expression.

When Wei Yanho took the stand, he frowned and looked at Eon Hyo.

“There are many absent today. Only five?”

They’re not absent, crazy!

They quit!

Only five people were at the big training camp. Almost a hundred students had been here yesterday, but they had all resigned and fled.

“Although we are not many, we must continue training.”

Wei Yanho picked up a stone and smiled.

“They have determination. My teacher said that people with determination become strong. Or…”

Wait.

Did I just hear “or will you die first”?

“We begin.”

Wei Yanho started throwing and catching stones.

“H… Hyung!”

When Peng Dohyeong screamed anxiously, Eon Hyo smiled.

The comrades of the Academy of the Down Dragon with determination?

The stones thrown by Wei Yanho began to fly towards Eon Hyo at an incredible speed.

“Damn.”
