"Association President, I'm making this request in complete sincerity," Lu Fa said earnestly.
"You little rascal, don't make things difficult for these old bones of mine." Zhen Hua gave a wry smile.
Then he added, "Besides, in a sense, I can be considered half your martial brother."
There was nothing wrong with that logic. Mu Chen was his martial younger brother, and Mu Chen was Kong Xuan's disciple. By that reasoning, he could barely count as Kong Xuan's disciple as well. Since Lu Fa was a nominal disciple, shouldn't he call him martial brother?

"Rather than talking about the challenge, have you made any plans for the direction of your future cultivation or what you intend to do later? Tell me, and I'll give you some advice." Zhen Hua had no intention of saying more about Kong Xuan, so he shifted the conversation to Lu Fa's future plans.
Lu Fa pondered for a moment before saying, "I plan to first solidify my Soul Refinement foundation, then devote myself fully to cultivation and become a Titled Douluo as soon as possible."

"This junior studies at Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy," Lu Fa replied.
"Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy? Our Association has quite a few collaborations
