Zhuo Shi's words had made the implication very clear.
First, he had subtly pointed out Long Yeyue's prestige in the Spirit Master world, while also clarifying her cultivation. Finally, he had hinted that Long Yeyue intended to guide Fors.
Any ordinary person who was not too foolish would immediately understand what he meant, then bow and acknowledge Long Yeyue as their master. After all, she was a Four-word Battle Armor Master! She was absolutely one of the few people standing at the very pinnacle of the Spirit Master world.
Long Yeyue secretly nodded as well. Zhuo Shi had handled this quite well. With just a few words, he had nearly broken her awkward predicament. As long as Fors was not foolish, she should understand her intentions and accept her as her master.
"Mm, so what? Was there anything else you called me to the Inner Courtyard for? If not, I'm leaving."
Faced with Zhuo Shi's words, which could practically be considered an outright hint, Fors acted as if she had not understood. Her fingers lightly played with her hair, her gaze filled with indifference.
Her silky, soft hair curled around her slender fingers, as though telling of its owner's carefree attitude.
"Fors, Sister Yue thinks highly of your talent and wants to take you as her disciple," Ya Li said gently at that moment. Her tender voice was like a clear spring, deftly dissolving the awkward atmosphere.
"Oh~, so that's what this is." Fors spoke as though she had suddenly realized it.
"Mm." Seeing that Fors had finally understood their meaning, the few people present could not help but smile. If Fors became Long Yeyue's disciple, it would be a win-win situation for both her and the Academy.
"Then I won't accept!"
However, Fors's next words froze the smiles on
