Chapter 51 - First Senior Zhao Hede

n

n

nAs the names were read out one by one, those whose names were read out were naturally overjoyed, and those who failed could only sigh and try again next time.

nNo matter what, the Gu Immortal Sect disciples had decent mental states, and they would not be depressed because of this failure.

nThe only thing was that the name list this time was somewhat surprising.

n

"The sect master and First Elder are both here for Fang Yuan, isn't this too ridiculous?

"

n

"I am even suspecting whether Fang Yuan is the sect master's biological son... so many great beings are fighting over him.

"

n

"Sigh, the matter is already settled, we will have to call Fang Yuan 'Senior' in the future.

"

n

"I still don't understand. For so many years, his reputation has not been well-known. How could he suddenly be noticed by the sect master and the others? Could it be because of that outer sect competition?

"

n

"That might be the reason.

"

n

"You all underestimate the ranking of the competition. I've studied it. Do you know how high the value of Fang Yuan's first place is?

"

n

"Oh? Junior, tell me more.

"

n

"Let me put it this way. If the speed of the second place was a hundred times faster, he might just almost catch up to Fang Yuan and compete with him.

"

n

"Wow, so terrifying?

"

n

"What do you think, to be able to differentiate the refinement pairings of five pairs of Gu worms and refine them at the same time, and to do it all in fifteen minutes, he is already a genius.

"

nA group of spectating disciples began to discuss about Fang Yuan.

nSlowly, they understood why there were three experts fighting over a disciple of the Gu Immortal Sect.

nZhang Wenbin, who heard all this from afar, opened his eyes wide.

n

"How is this possible, why would the sect master approve of him!

"

nA strong sense of danger surged in Zhang Wenbin's heart.

nIf Fang Yuan confirmed his identity as the sect master's personal disciple, then it would be natural for him to be together with Wan Qian.

nWhen that time came, how would he make his move?

nBut he couldn't do anything at all.

nWhether it was the clan behind him or the Fourth Elder, they couldn't change or even shake the sect master's mind.

nZhang Wenbin could only hope that Fang Yuan was an idiot and didn't choose Gu Zhenren.

nBut Fang Yuan was naturally not an idiot.

nCompared to Gu Zhenren's protection, First Elder and Second Elder were insignificant.

nMoreover, First Elder and Second Elder had looked for him in private first, so choosing one would offend the other.

nOnly Gu Zhenren, who had a higher status, would have no competition.

nAfter the name list was read out, the examiner looked at the disciples sitting in the square, and he said loudly,

"All those who have been called, stand up. You can go to your beloved master and pay your respects. If you don't want to pay your respects, sit down and forfeit.

"

nHow could an ordinary disciple give up such a great opportunity? A group of people took large strides forward and bowed in front of the elders.

nTo acknowledge a master, one had to kowtow three times and bow nine times.

nFang Yuan was one of them. He walked up to Gu Zhenren and the two of them looked at each other and laughed.

n

"Disciple Fang Yuan greets Master.

"

nAfter bowing, Gu Zhenren looked at him with a more cordial gaze.

n

"You acknowledge me as your master, so now the two people next to me are not happy.

"

nFang Yuan bowed to First Elder and Second Elder respectively,

"I have let down the two elders' high hopes, I apologize here.

"

n

"No worries.

"

nSecond Elder laughed, and he did not mind.

"Sect master, congratulations on accepting such a good disciple.

"

nThe First Elder's face was ashen and he was a little unhappy, but he also said congratulations.

n

"Get up.

"

nGu Zhenren smiled,

"There is no need to be so formal when you are my disciple, I have nothing to scold you for. First, you will learn about the scenery around the main peak from your senior. After choosing a place to live, we will talk about other things.

"

nAfter saying that, he looked at the two elders.

"Juniors, recently, I have comprehended a technique and I want to find someone to spar with. Why don't we go to the Battle Arena?

"

n

"I have the same idea.

" First Elder snorted and left. It was all because of this senior that he lost a disciple.

nSecond Elder was not angry and left side by side with Gu Zhenren.

nAt this time, a man with a simple and honest face walked over and patted his shoulder.

n

"Junior, my name is Zhao Hede. Master ordered me to bring you around the main peak. Come with me.

"

n

"Greetings, First Senior.

"

nFang Yuan nodded. Looking at the direction where Gu Zhenren had gone, he hesitated.

n

"Don't worry, Master has a good relationship with the two elders, and sparring is a common thing. They will be fine after the sparring.

"

nZhao Hede pulled him along, walking towards the outside of the assessment area.

nAlong the way, under a willow tree, he heard a small group of disciples discussing about Fang Yuan.

n

"Who do you think this Fang Yuan is? First, he got Senior Wan's favor, and now he's accepted as the sect master's personal disciple.

"

n

"I think Senior Wan and the sect master must have been deceived by his flowery words. Otherwise, how could an unknown kid suddenly soar to the sky?

"

n

"Yeah, it's not difficult to find out his family background. He's just the son of an ordinary wealthy gentleman in Yunding City. He's far inferior to a real big clan.

"

n

"That's right, he's not as handsome as me. Why doesn't Senior like me?

"

nIt seemed that a group of people who were jealous of Fang Yuan was gossiping about him.

nZhao Hede glanced at them expressionlessly. Some of them recognized him and immediately bowed.

n

"Senior Zhao...

"

nThe others immediately shut up and bowed.

nWhen they saw Fang Yuan following them, their faces turned even paler.

n

"Senior... Senior Fang.

"

nFang Yuan did not speak. There were countless people in the entire sect who were jealous of him, and if he wanted to pursue this matter, it would take more than a year. There was no need to waste time.

nBut Zhao Hede reprimanded them.

n

"All day long, you do not know how to cultivate diligently, you only know how to complain.

"

n

"Talking about people like village women, you are really embarrassing the Gu Immortal Sect.

"

n

"All of you, go to the punishment hall and receive the thirty commandments!

"

nThe few of them had bitter expressions as they begged for mercy.

n

"Senior, please don't. If we get the thirty commandments, we won't be able to cultivate for months...

"

n

"Yes Senior, we won't dare to do it again, please spare us this time...

"

nZhao Hede was even angrier,

"A man dares to take responsibility. Now you do not dare to accept any punishment, where is the pride of a Gu Immortal Sect disciple?

"

nThe few of them were speechless.

n

"Fifty commandments, not a single one less!

"

nZhao Hede's expression was stern,

"If there are any more pleas, you will be expelled from the sect! The Gu Immortal Sect does not need soft bones!

"

n

"Yes...

"

nThey sighed deeply, regretting why they had to talk so much about this topic.

nAfter they left, Fang Yuan opened his mouth to speak.

n

"First Senior, you can chase disciples out?

"

n

"I'm just scaring them.

"

nZhao Hede returned to his original honest face and grinned..

"Let's go, I will bring you to meet the other two seniors.

"
