Teacher Xiao Fan 2

Soon an eerie feeling descended into the room, as Xiao Fan had decided to straighten the line his students had made.

The monkeys who had been on the sidelines felt something, which was making them unable to move.

This power they were feeling was, of course, Xiao Fan pressuring them while his body was already moving towards the first line skipper.

The first monkey in question was a few places behind the lead monkey. Currently trying his best to nudge into the line, but had only gotten some of it in there.

No one was willing to give anyone else their spot, so the monkeys who were in the line had put their backs and fronts to each others.

And as half of his body was coming out of the line was it enough to get him considered being a line skipper.

When Xiao Fan came next to him, he didn't get a second to make an expression nor utter anything before he had been already snatched.

Xiao Fan only taking a good grip of his neck then lifted the monkey up into the air for everyone to see.

Gathering all eyes in the room to look at what was about to happen to the person who hadn't so as the new second in command had ordered.

The ones who were in the line laughed at the other monkey's misery.

The ones who were also trying to skip the line felt a little bit of fear, as in terrified so much that they couldn't move.

¨When I say you make a line you will make a line for me!¨ Xiao Fan screamed at the line skippers ear, and in succession, he threw the monkey in his hand.

Xiao Fan would be sure to make a few of them be examples for the others to realise what his orders meant.

Still, he wasn't a person who would he kill the monkey with the throw but had made sure that at least few bones were broken in the object he had thrown like a rag after being used.

Every monkey head in the room moved like they were sports fans watching a game going on, yet the ball in their game was one of their friends.

However seeing this the ones who had wanted to keep laughing shut up, for who knows what will happen next, maybe laughing wasn't allowed or something, so no one dared to speak.

On the other hand, not everyone wanted to laugh, and the monkey who wanted to nothing more to happen was, of course, the second line shipper.

Who was looking straight at Xiao Fan coming towards her.

Realising what was going to happen, made her lose footing, but still, a pressure coming from Xiao Fan's eyes made her unable to recuperate.

The figure emitting fear stopped some centimetres before her and politely asked ¨Couldn't you hear what I told you!¨

The asked politely part could only, however, be said if this sentence would be compared to what he had yelled at them before.

To this, the monkey quickly nodded, yet her feet weren't listening to her panicky commands to run back of the line.

So she also got the quicker option of getting there with other person helping her with that.

Xiao Fan felt bad for her but nevertheless examples needed to be made, and so showing an indifferent expression on his face, he threw her.

Now another monkey had been thrown, and while making his way to the third one, he stopped pressuring the mortal monkeys with an overwhelming feeling.

Giving the third monkey enough time to feel his body listening to him again now that the feeling of being someone's meal lifted over him, he made a decision that didn't need thinking.

As the first thing he made was actually two things first being ¨Second in command I'm so sorry, please forgive me!¨ while taking steps back with the same pace as he was being advanced upon hoping that he wouldn't also be trashed.

Seeing how much fear he had instilled to these monkeys, Xiao Fan noted that his fear tactic had worked well enough on them.

Allowing him to cut some slack for the rest.

Some as in his facial expression normalised yet he still questioned the monkey while walking towards him.

Moreover, by now, every line skipper had already gone back to the line, as after Xiao Fan's pressure had lifted, they had quickly noted their bodies could move again.

This realisation had prompted them to make their way fast as possible to the back of the line and even form it nicely into a straight line.

Meanwhile, the two of them were still having a talk ¨Then what should you be doing now?¨ Xiao Fan spoke.

He had now stopped his shouting as he had become satisfied with the other line skippers being self-acting and forming at the end of the line without anything needed to be said.

While the monkey being questioned by him quickly looked over his shoulder and seeing that everyone was on the line already did he also make a beeline towards the back most spot.

Seeing this and knowing he had succeeded in his real teaching today, he happily looked towards Du Lan.

¨Now we can start sharing the meat!¨ He said with the same compassionate way, which he had been using when teaching them.

From there, the first monkey made his way to take a piece from the table, and so did the next one, and then rest of the line.

Still soon, another problem became evident to every monkey in the queue who was still waiting for a piece.

There were not enough meat pieces to go around!

They had lined nicely, and now they wouldn't be getting any meat like the others? A few of the monkeys instantly raised their sound, but quickly a pressure hit them like a tidal wave from their side.

Xiao Fan had made another test for them.

Their final test was to wait even if others had already gotten something and how they would react to it, would they go riot again or stay in form?

The sound did make the monkeys waiting for their piece shut up, yet they would soon found out a cruel truth as when the last bit of meat was taken, the woman holding the tray disappeared.

They first waited for a moment, but she didn't come back shortly, and when they waited for minutes that felt like hours in the line, they became restless.

All the while, Xiao Fan just took the liberty of going to talk with the ones who already got their pieces of meat, ignoring the rest of them standing in line.

It didn't take long before some of the monkeys became visibly annoyed, but they didn't dare to show it anymore, there was a small thing about Xiao Fan not saying anything about getting out of the line or something meaning that.

Nevertheless, to everyone's surprise, none of the monkeys raised their voice again before Du Lan came back with another tray full of meat again.

It would seem that animals would listen to orders smoothly if there was a hammer that could fall on them anytime, he noted.

Noting this, of course, pleased Xiao Fan, as this could also be used to order troops to do suicide missions.

If one knew that he had better chances living trough the attack, would he also more likely do that then surely be killed by the person standing behind him.

...

After Xiao Fan got done with the monkeys, he came to his training room for the first time today.

His cave included this room with things that the monkeys knew would help cultivation, but this knowledge mainly consisted of two things.

One being lifting heavyweights, and the other was running, they were primitive ideas, but they weren't wrong at all.

So the room was fitted with everything monkeys knew of them being boulders and balls made of rocks and some tree trunks while there was a toughened wall on the side of the room for punching exercises.

There was, of course, also enough room to move around for quick bouts, but fighting here for real would still be very much in the realm close quarters combat for a cultivator.

He knew this as the few places Xiao Fan had been in Bald Eagle Dynasty were much spacier and those places very still only for mortals to use when fighting.

His reason coming here was that he had felt yet that he was about to break through to third grade at any moment now.

However, it hadn't happened, so he came looking for something around here, something maybe inspiring him to breakthrough, and the Book of Cultivation did talk about lifting weights a lot.

Until now, he hadn't had the time to try it out yet, so now was the perfect time for trying that he thought.

As he was trying to find the last bit he needed to before breakthrough would happen, and that in mind, he made his way towards the boulders that had been shaped like balls inside the room.

There were no markings how heavy the balls were nor did he have an idea about his strength, so he simply picked up the first ball that came in front of him.

Squatting down, he hugged the ball and already felt that the ball was light, so he didn't focus a lot while easily coming up with the ball in his hands.

However, this didn't make him happy as he didn't even feel a lot in his muscles when doing so, meaning that it was too light to affect him or so he had learned.

To prove himself that it was too light, he called Du Lan to come test train with him and Du Lan who was just a few rooms away, heard Xiao Fan shouting for her, and so she swiftly comes to him to see what he was yelling about.

¨Du Lan, I need you to lift this rock¨ He said while he rolled the ball over to her with his leg, in his mind was that if Du Lan could also raise it, he would be then convinced that it was way too light for his training.

¨Sure I can try¨ She said as he took stopped the rolling stone and squatted on it trying to find a grip.

Du Lan hugging the ball made something click again in his head from looking it, but like usually he ignored it.

Du Lan, not knowing anything about it, started to lift the rock, which for her was no an easy task.

From it, her legs did start to scream from the strain a little, though in the end she still lifted the ball and then quickly dropped it before only holding it became too straining for her body,

Now that her performance was done Du Lan's was evidently breathing heavily; her body might have nearly broken from lifting the stone that was a toy for him he thought.

He ignored her struggles as he had an even better idea pop into his mind from this and quickly ran out from the training room to fetch some monkeys while ignoring her.

Running out of the place he already knew who to look for to get perfect candidates for his test. Xiao Fan had already forgotten his problem to do some testing relating to mortals and cultivators.

This did leave Du Lan panting in the room alone with a helpless expression.

Bringing back with him to the training room was one of the monkeys he had met first when walking outside and the one who had turned into a mutant during his teaching.

Now having more test subjects, he could test more.

¨Lift that rock over there¨ He said to the one who was a mortal like Du Lan.

The monkey didn't ask about anything and made its way towards the stone, and with greater difficulty than Du Lan, he lifted it before collapsing.

Xiao Fan didn't mind this a lot as he got some idea. Then looking at the monkey who had turned into a mutant he spoke.

¨Lift up the same rock¨ He said hardly caring while pondering about how much difference there was between Du Lan and the monkey who had collapsed.

His pondering made him think that reasonably Du Lan should be very close to becoming a cultivator.

While thinking the other monkey himself thought that this wouldn't be dangerous as he, unlike the last one was a mutant so it should be an easy thing for him?

And so it was, the mutant didn't even need to work a lot to lift it, in a few hours the power increase was already doubled or even triple folded Xiao Fan concluded.

Dropping the stone, he looked towards his revered second in command for praise, but when Xiao Fan opened his mouth, it wasn't what he had thought about.

¨Good, now lift the bigger one¨ He didn't even look at him and looked out of it while the only expression towards him was a finger pointing a slightly bigger rock.

For the next hour, Xiao Fan delved into how much power each power grade had, and in the end, he concluded that a mortal could lift the smallest ball.

A grade one mutant lifted three times the same weight, and that mutant was one that had turned into one the same day.

Now he had some idea where to refer when a monkey could turn into a mutant in regards to lifting weights.

It would be around the time one could lift the first rock without a problem, at that time, one must be ready to turn into a mutant if given a push for it.

When the mutant that he had dragged here couldn't lift the fourth rock anymore, he gave each monkey a piece of meat as a benefit before sending them away while continuing his lifts.

Which had been his original intentions to coming here.

Now even if he knew that he could lift the rock all the way to the fourth one, he still lifted them one at step at a time, as it would serve as training.

Doing so, the second rock that he lifted wasn't heavy, and he could lift it with one hand only, and even push it over his head clean.

Third rock couldn't be lifted with one hand anymore, yet with two hands, it became easy even for repeated reps, so he moved over that weight again.

Coming up to the fourth weight Xiao Fan got a little serious, and now that his hands couldn't go around the rock anymore which was almost like a boulder.

But this had been seen during the design phase for there were finger holes made into the rock.

Lifting the boulder using these holes, he finally felt something of a challenge, as it was somewhat hard, but still, after ten reps, he thought it was only good enough for longer reps and moved onto the fifth one.

The fifth weight wasn't anything like the balls before it but a massive one that was taller than Xiao Fan himself.

But despite, this it still didn't face him at all as a challenge was just what he wanted.
