Chapter 24: The Sect Master’s Curiosity

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Little brother, I Am Yu Yang, the second disciple of the sect master of the Qingyun sect.

I am the best at teaching disciples. Besides, I don’t have to take care of Qingyun Affairs, and I am not as idle as my fourth junior brother. I spend most of my time with my disciples. Little Brother, how about taking me as your master?”

As soon as Yu Yang entered, he began to introduce his advantages, afraid that Victor had taken the wrong master.

Victor was speechless.

What happened today?

The elders of the Qingyun sect came one after another, were they all so idle and bored?

With the arrival of First Elder Song Xiuwen, except for Fifth Elder Zhang Qishan, who was not in the sect.

All the other elders came one after another. Each of them had an anxious look on their faces, afraid that someone else would take the lead.

Meanwhile, at the side.

Yu Haoming’s expression became uglier and uglier when he saw his fellow disciples rushing to accept disciples in front of him. His face was as dark as black coal.

“Eldest senior brother, you have been tirelessly handling the affairs of the sect every day. It is all the more important for you to have a good rest. Leave the troublesome matters of teaching disciples to the fourth junior brother. Moreover, you already have Song Qianqian.”

“Fellow disciples, it was not easy for me to find a disciple I like, but all of you came to snatch it from me one by one. Moreover, each of you has five or six disciples on average. You don’t lack Victor, right?”

Fourth Elder Yu Haoming tried hard to persuade the other elders, but in his heart, he was cursing.

Damn it, if I had known earlier, I would have brought this kid down the mountain and waited for him to be successfully accepted as my disciple before bringing him back.

Yu Haoming regretted it. It wasn’t easy for him to decide to accept a disciple, but in the end, he was met with so many obstacles.

Who would have thought that this kid’s talent was so terrifying and that he would be so enticing? All the elders started to fight shamelessly for him!

If only master was here. Master would definitely uphold justice for me. After all, there must be a first-come, first-served rule.

Looking at Victor, Fourth Elder Yu Haoming’s eyes were filled with helplessness.

At this moment, Victor stood at the side with an expressionless face, as if all of this had nothing to do with him.

Victor was very speechless in his heart. Listening to the elders’ endless arguments, he had gone from gratitude to helplessness, to numbness now.

He was convinced. When did he say that he wanted to acknowledge the elders as his master? He did not know what these people were doing!

At the same time.

Just as they were arguing like a market, the sect master of Qingyun Sect, Zhang Lingren, who had been in secluded cultivation, finally came out.

“Huh?”

Just as Zhang Lingren walked out of the secret chamber, he frowned slightly.

In the past, when he came out of secluded cultivation, at least one of Song Xiuwen or the other disciples would be waiting outside the door.

Today, he didn’t see any of them.

“Sect master!”

At this moment, a disciple walked over. When he saw Zhang Lingren coming out of seclusion, he shouted in surprise.

“Yes!”

Zhang Lingren smiled slightly and said amiably, “Where are Xiuwen and Haoming? Why aren’t I seeing them? Did something happen in the sect?”

Zhang Lingren obviously wouldn’t blame Song Xiuwen and the others for not being sensible. He just felt that today’s matter was a bit abnormal, and he was worried that the sect might have encountered some crisis.

“Sect master…”

The disciple looked at Zhang Lingren with a strange expression, and his voice faltered as if he had something shameful to say.

“If there’s anything, don’t worry and say it!”

Zhang Lingren casually patted the disciple’s shoulder.

“Master, it’s like this…”

Feeling the sect master’s encouragement, the disciple immediately explained everything to Zhang Lingren.

In less than three minutes.

After listening to the disciple’s explanation, a curious look appeared on Zhang Lingren’s face.

“They are fighting over a disciple?”

Zhang Lingren looked at the disciple in disbelief. For a moment, he wondered if he had heard wrongly.

He knew his own disciple the best.

These seven disciples of his had been very thoughtful children since they were young. They had never argued over a disciple or anything before.

All of them were humble and gave way to each other. The younger ones respected the older ones while the older ones took care of the younger ones.

Now, they were actually going to fight over a disciple?

Just what kind of power did this disciple have that could make them put down their face as elders and fight over the disciple.

“Yes. Originally, that disciple wanted to acknowledge you as his master. However, Second Elder Yu was about to intercept him midway. Master and the other elders also found out about this matter and immediately rushed over.”

“Grandmaster, you should hurry over. Otherwise, they might really start fighting.”

“Ridiculous!”

Zhang Lingren scolded.

However, he also became curious about this disciple called Victor.

After all, it was the first time that he had seen the six great disciples fighting to accept a disciple.

..

“Stop quarreling. Since Victor has proven his strength through the competition, we can also set up the arena and have a competition. Whoever is stronger will be his master. How about it?”

Being annoyed by the other five people, Fourth Elder Yu couldn’t help it no matter how cultured and easygoing he was.

In terms of cultivation techniques, he was the highest among the six people.

In terms of duels, he wasn’t afraid of anyone.

“Uh… Fourth senior brother, it’s not good to fight in the arena. If you’re not careful, you’ll hurt the friendship between us senior and junior brothers. Moreover, being a strong master doesn’t mean that one will be good at teaching a disciple. In the end, it still depends on the suitability.”

When the Seventh Elder Mo Hong heard this, he couldn’t help and said.

Among the senior and junior brothers, he was the youngest. Naturally, his cultivation method was much weaker than Fourth Senior Brother Yu Haoming’s, so he didn’t want to decide through a battle.

“What? Are you afraid? Since you’re afraid, then quickly withdraw!”

Speaking about his strength and realm in front of the senior and junior brothers, Yu Haoming was suddenly in high spirits.

Although he was usually not serious, he had never slacked off in his cultivation. On top of that, his innate talent in cultivation was outstanding.

In terms of fighting, the other fellow disciples could never compare to him.

At this moment.

Whether it was Seventh Elder Mo Hong or First Elder Song Xiuwen, no one knew how to refute.

“Little brother, how is it? Other than the sect master who is still in seclusion, the best candidate to become your master in the entire Qingyun sect is still me, Yu Haoming!”

Seeing that no one else said anything, Yu Haoming burst into laughter.

“Who said that I’m in seclusion!”

At this moment, Zhang Lingren walked in with his hands behind his back.

“Master!”

“Master!”

“Master!”

Song Xiuwen and the others immediately bowed.

“Hmph, do you still see me as your master? If I were to come over later, would you really disregard the friendship between senior and junior and set up the arena to start the fight?”

Yu Haoming glanced at them guiltily. The others did not dare to oppose him and lowered their heads in embarrassment.

“What are you waiting for? Are you all very free?”

After Zhang Lingren finished speaking, Song Xiuwen and the others immediately cupped their hands and bowed. They left in shame.

Even Yu Haoming saw that the situation was not looking good and slipped away quietly among the senior and junior brothers.

In the blink of an eye, only Zhang Lingren and Victor were left in the courtyard.
