Chen Nan was taken aback!
He hadn't expected another troublemaker!
This was completely beyond his expectations!
He had thought these children would be obedient!
After all, they had shown such respect when Yan Guang had told them to greet him!
Another child, about eight or nine years old, chimed in, "Exactly! Exactly! We are the noble descendants of divine birds, with the blood of divine birds flowing in our veins. You mortals are not qualified to teach us!"
"Especially Chen Jin. He has the bloodline of the Golden Crow flowing within him! On the entire Divine Tree, besides the Great King, whose bloodline is nobler than his?"
The first child to speak raised his head proudly, "Yes, he's talking about me! I have the bloodline of the Golden Crow flowing in me. Are you scared or not?"
Chen Nan looked stunned!
He hadn't expected them to be so arrogant at such a young age!
They truly needed discipline!
Chen Jin said in a condescending tone, "Human, I'm hungry. Go and prepare something for me to eat quickly, or I'll tear down your house right now!"
As he spoke, a terrifying demonic energy erupted from within him!
This demonic energy was no less potent than Tu An's!
Chen Nan gasped inwardly!
To possess cultivation above the Celestial Immortal realm at only five or six years old, the descendants of the Golden Crow were truly formidable!
However!
He was not afraid of them!
His gaze was cold, and he let out a heavy snort, "Chen Jin, I am the teacher the Great King found for you, not a servant!"
"If you continue to be so disrespectful and obstinate!"
"Do you believe I will inform the Great King of your actions and have him severely punish you?"
A flicker of unease flashed in Chen Jin's eyes, and he raged, "You... you're worse than a child!"
"When we children fight amongst ourselves, we don't tell our elders even if we lose. How can you go and report to the Great King?"
"You, you, you... you're not playing fair!"
It was clear that even Chen Jin, with his Golden Crow bloodline, feared Yan Guang!
Chen Nan said coldly, "I am the teacher the Great King found for you, to teach you the principles of life. Do you think I'm willing to play games with you? Let me tell you, from now on, you will behave yourself in my class. Otherwise, don't blame me for disciplining you!"
Chen Jin was enraged, "You make me laugh! You want to discipline me?"
"Do you believe I can incinerate you with a single true flame, you little brat?"
"Yes, even if I kill you, what of it if the Great King blames me?"
"Don't talk about my father being the Great King's right-hand man. Even if he weren't, the Great King wouldn't kill me to avenge you!"
"What do you want?" Chen Nan frowned slightly!
He wouldn't lie if he said he was a little flustered!
After all, this was a descendant of the Golden Crow. If he truly spewed divine fire!
He himself... would likely be reduced to ashes!
And this fellow was right!
If he truly killed him!
Even if Yan Guang killed him for revenge, it would be too late!
This was a bit troublesome!
Although he had threatened to report Chen Jin to Yan Guang if he caused trouble, that was just to scare him!
Since Yan Guang had entrusted these twelve individuals with divine bird bloodlines to him, it meant he absolutely trusted him!
If he were to complain about such a minor matter, Yan Guang would surely be very disappointed!
Chen Jin said, "I will attend your classes in the future, but you cannot restrict me from doing anything! Of course, I will not disrupt the class order!"
"Alright!" Chen Nan agreed immediately!
This was a seemingly like a compromise!
But in reality, it was a strategic retreat to advance!
He had many ways to make Chen Jin integrate with the other children!
"Alright, you can go now!" Chen Nan said!
"Yin Luan, let's go!"
Chen Jin looked at the child who had defended him earlier, then transformed into a Golden Crow, tearing through the clouds and disappearing from Chen Nan's sight!
Afterward, Chen Nan looked at the other ten children, asking for their names and family situations!
Although he had never been a teacher, he knew the procedures!
A young girl named Cai Feng said in a childish voice, "Teacher, it's best if you don't offend Chen Jin in the future. His father, Hei Yan, is the Great King's most formidable general and also possesses the strength of a ninth-level Demon Emperor!"
Another child added, "And Hei Yan is extremely protective of his cub. He will show no mercy to anyone who provokes his son!"
"Are both father and son this arrogant?" Chen Nan felt a headache coming on!
He then thought about it and felt relieved!
As the saying goes, the roots are crooked, so the branches will also be crooked.
If Hei Yan had good character, his son would not be so arrogant and overbearing!
Chen Nan asked, "Does Chen Jin's mother not manage them?"
"Chen Jin's mother died tens of thousands of years ago, protecting the Great King. Therefore, the Great King takes great care of both father and son!"
Chen Nan nodded slightly!
But!
This couldn't be an excuse for them to be arrogant, overbearing, and bully others!
However, as an outsider, he was not yet qualified to interfere in others' affairs!
He just needed to do his own job well!
He looked at the ten children and smiled, "We've all gotten to know each other today. Since the Great King has appointed me as your teacher, I will naturally not disappoint his expectations!"
"Of course, you are children. While learning is important, you must also have a carefree childhood!"
"Everyone go back and rest. Report to me tomorrow morning!"
"When the time comes, the teacher will give you a big toy!"
Upon hearing this, the ten children became very excited!
They already respected the teacher appointed by the Great King, let alone the fact that the teacher was going to give them gifts!
Then they transformed into their original forms and soared into the sky!
Among them were noble celestial phoenixes, and also colorful peacocks!
In short, they were all rare birds!
Watching the ten children leave, Yu Fei came over with a bowl of tea, handed it to Chen Nan, and asked curiously, "Brother Chen, what gift are you planning to give them?"
Chen Nan gulped down the tea and said with a smile, "Water guns, perhaps!"
Children loved playing with water!
And with the bamboo forest nearby, they could make water guns from bamboo!
As long as the water guns were made, they would definitely attract Chen Jin and make him obediently attend his class!
In order to make that fellow study with peace of mind, Chen Nan was making great efforts!
When Chen Nan was young, there were dozens of bamboo plants in the steel plant. When he had nothing else to do, he learned from the people at the steel plant how to make water guns!
They were called water guns, but they were actually like large syringes!
They were not difficult to make!
------
The next day!
Chen Nan had just finished breakfast when ten colorful flying birds flew over, landed, and transformed into ten children!
They gathered together joyfully!
"Teacher, didn't you say you had a gift for us?"
"Yes, Teacher, where is the gift you mentioned?"
Chen Nan led them to the river, took out the water guns he had made overnight, which were as thick as an arm and over a meter long, resembling giant air pumps. "This is the gift I prepared for you, and my favorite toy when I was a child, called a water gun!" He then filled it with water and pushed it slowly!
The water inside sprayed out, drenching the ten little ones like drowned rats!
But everyone's face was filled with surprise!
It was important to note that not all birds were fearless of water like the duck tribe!
They were inherently afraid of water!
But now, they could play with water and frolic without any hesitation!
This feeling was truly wonderful!
Just as the ten children were playing with water guns and having a water fight, Chen Jin and Yin Luan, with envious expressions, came to the riverbank!
Yin Luan said with envy, "Chen Jin, I want to play with them too. Why don't we... surrender?"
