Ying Yue was surprised to hear Yama all of a sudden. She can tell now that Yama was purposely ignoring her."Hateful b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" pouted Ying Yue.
Yama naturally ignored Ying Yue and faced Nian Zhen expecting an answer from her.
"The Monk"s Gathering is when monks from around the continent would come to our academy to have a meeting. It"s prestige for our academy when it happens hence why everyone treats it as a big thing." Nian Zhen explained to Yama.
"Why is it so that everyone wants to go and check if it"s just monks from around the continent coming to talk with each other?" Yama asked as he couldn"t understand just what makes it so that everyone would want to go to that place. Isn"t it just random monks who have no life gathering around one area to talk about their bulls.h.i.t.
"Is because some students are lucky to get blessings from the Monks, some are even lucky enough to get an artefact, hence why a lot of people will want to go to the place."
"Blessings? Does that help at all?"
"Definitely! Usually, when a person gets a blessing from a monk, they advance in their cultivation very quickly, some even make a breakthrough on the spot."
"Really? How is that possible?" Yama was surprised to hear that the monks have the ability to increase someone"s cultivation, no wonder why a lot of people will want to attend.
"We don"t know, but there are rumours that the monks can share part of their cultivation to help aid another"s cultivation.
But one thing for a certain is, anyone who has been invited has a good heaven blessing stone score otherwise it would not be possible for the monk to give a blessing so that it can aid them in a boost in cultivation."
"Heaven Blessing stone score?..." Yama was lost for words.
"I can be confident that if I do end up attending the gathering and by chance, I get selected for a blessing by a monk, I will be making a fool out of myself."
Yama couldn"t help but think about the day when the blessing stone cracked and had a ma.s.sive commotion. He will not want to go through the same phase again.
"Yama are you interested in going?" Nian Zhen couldn"t help but ask after seeing Yama dazing off in thoughts.
"I see, but wouldn"t it be too crowded? if everyone in the academy attends it.?"
"No, because only people with a valid invitation can attend, and anyone who has an invitation can bring along someone."
Ying Yue who has been listening to the conversation silently throughout this whole time finally said to Yama.
"Yama do you want to come along? I can bring along someone with me."
"This... Don"t you have to take Nian Zhen?" Yama asked.
"No! She already has an invitation. Her teacher especially got one for her."
"Yama don"t worry. I initially came here to check on my brother and also take him along with me to the gathering." Nian Zhen said to Yama.
"Sister! Great. Thank you! Xiu Mei will certainly be there!" Fu Li said to Nian Zhen. He couldn"t wait to attend now.
"You"re going there to try and get a blessing from a Monk if you dare leave my side and go search for Xiu Mei, I will drag you back here!" Nian Zhen got furious when she heard her brother. Her brother of her"s just caused a ma.s.sive commotion, and straight away he wants to go searching for another one.
Yama and the dorm-mates couldn"t help but laugh at the situation, Yama even found Fu Li more amusing.
"So when do we leave?" Yama asked.
"We should get going now, the sooner we get there, the better it is."

At a place in the centre of the academy separated from the other buildings, there was a single building taking a lot of s.p.a.ce, from the outside this building looks nice and modern. It has been built with walnut wood and has granite decorations. Tall, wide windows let in plenty of light and have been added to the building in a very asymmetric way.
There was a big board at the entrance of the building.
"Magician Department Main Hall"
This is where all the elders of the Magician Department gathers to have a meeting about all the issues within the Magician Department but today inside the building there was a lot of decorations, if one were meant to walk into this building right now, they would surely think that they have walked into a n.o.ble beings house.
A large stage was set up inside the hall; the stage had a stylish u shaped modular table which can seat up to ten people, eight of whom who was currently discussing on the table was wearing a saffron robe, one can quickly tell that these eight people are Monks.
--
about thirty minutes away from the building, two students were strolling, and it was none other than Liang Liao and Liang Niu.
"Brother are you sure De Fan will be there?" Liang Liao asked his brother, and he couldn"t wait to see Yama beaten up black and blue.
"Obviously! I have sent some people to see the situation with Ying Yue and the rest so from what I know they seem to be on the way here and Yama is coming too apparently" Liang Niu a.s.sured his brother, he can naturally understand that his brother wants to get revenge to wash away his shame.
Liang Liao was elated when he heard this because this time he is sure that Yama is going to suffer big time.
--
Back at the main Hall, a huge commotion broke out due to an appearance of a teacher.
"Why is he here?!"
"Why is this teacher here? Did anything happen?"
The students and some teachers couldn"t help discuss with each other about the reason for his arrival; this is because the person who arrived was none other than the well known eccentric teacher of the academy Light Void.
"What idiots! Can"t I be here?" Light void couldn"t help but frown and look at a student in the crowd.
The student who saw that the teacher had focused him was worried and felt wronged.
"Why me out of everyone in this hall?. I didn"t even utter a single word and yet your picking on me? What did I do to you?"
The student couldn"t do anything but keep his mouth shut and prayed that Light Void would shift his focus somewhere else.
"Light Void! What are you doing here?!" One of the ten elders of the academy spoke out, and this was also someone who was seated along with the monks, he couldn"t help but frown upon seeing the arrival of Light Void, this guy is trouble wherever he is.
"Shut up old fogey! I ain"t talking to you."
"You..."
Students who were witnessing this scene couldn"t help but have a premonition of imminent disaster coming soon because Light Void dared to tell an elder of the academy to shut up.
"Why do you think I will be here? I am here to attend the so-called Monks Gathering."
"Buddha is merciful. Brother, please refrain from your ways of speaking, it is not good to disrespect the elderly." one of the monks pointed out to Light Void.
"Monk! I have shown my utmost respect for him. How can you slander me like this?"
