Teach me quickly!

The conversation between Li Yu and Asuna immediately drew the attention of Kato Megumi and Yukino Yukinoshita, both of whom looked on with surprise.

"You've already crossed blades with those monsters?" Yukino Yukinoshita looked at Li Yu and Asuna in disbelief. They had already fought?

"Yeah, they appeared in the area where we were staying, so Li Yu and I had a skirmish with a group of Goblins." Asuna didn't hold back, relaying the facts exactly as they happened.

Hearing this, the two girls became quite interested; they were both very curious about the monsters in that dungeon.

"What kind of monsters were they?" With next week's practical training in mind, Yukino Yukinoshita began to consult them on these matters.

She was quite interested. If she could actually go into combat, it would be much faster than training at school. As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle.

Yukino Yukinoshita wanted to gather some intelligence, which was why she asked, though her line of thought was clearly redundant.

After all, the only monsters Li Yu and Asuna knew of were a Minotaur and a Goblin. There wasn't much to say, and Li Yu couldn't exactly start talking about the anime he had seen.

Therefore, Li Yu spread his hands, admitting he didn't know much more, and simply described the situation with the Goblins and the Minotaur, which hardly counted as actionable intelligence.

"A pity. Perhaps there will be more information by Monday!" Although Yukino Yukinoshita felt a bit regretful, she didn't press the matter further.

"Li Yu, where did you buy your weapon? Could you introduce me? I need to prepare a weapon for myself tomorrow as well." Kato Megumi spoke up at this moment.

However, she wasn't concerned with the monsters; she was asking where Li Yu had purchased his gear, as the quality of his Tang Dao was clearly exceptional.

She figured the smith who forged such a weapon must be a master. If she went to such a shop, she could buy with confidence.

Faced with Kato Megumi's inquiry, Li Yu immediately began to promote the shop. Sister Mi had been kind to him, so he didn't mind sending some business her way.

"It's a weapon shop near the school called Jimmy Weapons." Li Yu gave her the name of Sister Mi's shop.

Hearing this, Kato Megumi recalled the place. She asked with some surprise, "I've passed by it before, but I never went inside. I remember the weapons in her shop being quite cheap, though?"

Subconsciously, she felt that cheap goods were never good, but Li Yu's Tang Dao was different. Did they really have such high-quality weapons inside?

Li Yu had worked there part-time, so he naturally understood the situation. He explained immediately, "That's just because the good weapons aren't on display. If you go, just tell the proprietress that I sent you, and ask her to show you the better ones."

"By the way, besides weapons, her shop also buys all kinds of materials." Li Yu added as an afterthought; Sister Mi's shop generally accepted custom weapon orders.

After all, her husband's talent was entirely focused on smithing, and every weapon in the shop was crafted by him. The superior pieces were rarely put out on the shelves.

Hearing Li Yu's explanation, Kato Megumi suddenly understood. Yukino Yukinoshita, having overheard their conversation, couldn't help but interject, "Li Yu, if you're coming to my place after school, why don't we stop by there on the way?"

With Li Yu leading the way, she would surely be able to buy a better weapon. She needed one too; relying on her bare hands in the dungeon was far too troublesome.

Some monsters weren't suited for hand-to-hand combat, and she knew a bit of swordsmanship, so she needed to acquire a blade.

"That works. I'll take you two there, then." Li Yu naturally wouldn't refuse; it was just a matter of being on the way.

The group settled the plan, and the rest of the class seemed to feel a sense of urgency, with many of them flocking to Li Yu.

They begged Li Yu to help them solve various problems, asking him about everything they didn't understand.

Looking at his classmates, Li Yu couldn't help but speak up: "To be honest, if some of you can't make rapid breakthroughs in martial arts, why not try focusing on magic? People have to choose a path they excel at; there's no point in banging your head against a wall, is there?"

The crowd was stunned by Li Yu's words. They hadn't really thought about it that way; the teacher had told them to study both, so everyone subconsciously assumed they had to advance in both simultaneously.

Only a few had planned their own paths. Now that Li Yu had pointed it out, everyone realized he was right. If they couldn't break through in martial arts, why not look toward magic?

"The teacher only requires a Third Rank, but they didn't specify whether it had to be in martial arts or magic. I see that many of you have quite a high total amount of mana. If you put in a little effort over these next two days, reaching the Third Rank should be quite simple." These guys really didn't know how to prioritize.

Was martial arts the priority, or was magic? These people hadn't decided, and the teacher hadn't explicitly pointed it out, clearly leaving it to them to make the choice.

Yet, these students hadn't realized it for a while, instead stubbornly fixating on martial arts, even though many of them had much stronger magical talent.

"That's right! We could totally break through in magic first, then study martial arts later. My talent is clearly stronger in magic; why have I been killing myself over martial arts?" With Li Yu's nudge, many students realized it instantly.

Many students immediately reacted. If they kept obsessing over martial arts, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse? Their advantage was clearly in magic.

"So, you should know what to do now, right? Our class covers both, but not everyone can advance in both at the same pace. You need to establish a priority, don't you?" Li Yu spread his hands, feeling truly helpless toward these classmates.

"You're right! My talent is in magic. If I work hard, I can definitely reach the Third Rank in these two days!" The students were instantly awakened, and many changed their strategies on the spot.

A large portion of the crowd dispersed from Li Yu's side. Those who remained were the ones whose martial arts talent was superior to their magic, so they had no choice but to continue asking Li Yu for guidance.

Moreover, many of them were just one step away from a breakthrough. Once they crossed that threshold, they would reach the Third Rank. Li Yu began lecturing the class, while others, seeing Yukino Yukinoshita, simply went to consult her instead.

After all, they hadn't forgotten that besides Li Yu, Yukino Yukinoshita was also very strong, and she had broken through on the same day as him.

With so many people surrounding Li Yu, it was better to ask Yukino Yukinoshita, who was currently free!

Faced with their questions, Yukino Yukinoshita did not refuse. She began to lecture the students, sharing her own perspectives and insights.
