Temptation of the Divine Craftsman, Apprentice to Mu Ye

Seeing this, Jiang Yi cautiously took a bite of the Gelatinous Substance. At once, a soft, springy sensation swept through his mouth.

Right afterward, he felt his blood and qi surge violently.

His eyes immediately lit up. "This is Thousand-Year Earth Dragon Tendon."

He picked up another large shrimp and stuffed it directly into his mouth.

In an instant, surging energy Burst Forth inside his body, as though every part of him had been nourished.

A layer of Red Light covered his entire body. His heart began pounding fiercely beyond his control, the thump-thump-thump echoing through the little shop.

His Life Force began to stir. Jiang Yi quickly absorbed the energy Inside The Body, while Cyan Gold Light emerged across his skin.

About three minutes later, the blood and qi within Jiang Yi had completely Calmed Down, his eyes filled with astonishment.

"How could a small shop like this have something like that?"

He sensed that something was wrong and Was About To react.

A Middle-aged Man emerged from the kitchen, dressed like a Chef, and sat directly across from Jiang Yi.

"How did those two dishes taste?" the Chef asked with a smile.

"They had perfect color, aroma, and flavor. They were rare delicacies." Jiang Yi nodded in praise.

A smile appeared on the Chef's face. Jiang Yi looked at him and spoke bluntly. "Those two dishes must have been made by you, Senior. You must have personally brought the ingredients as well, right?"

Seeing Jiang Yi say this so directly, the Chef nodded and smiled. "That's right. Since you know I made the dishes, aren't you afraid of me?"

"Senior can produce such precious ingredients, so your strength must be extraordinary. Even if I wanted to run, I probably couldn't," Jiang Yi said, shaking his head.

"Haha, you're a clever kid." The more the Chef looked at Jiang Yi, the more satisfied he became.

Whether it was talent or temperament, Jiang Yi was outstanding in every regard. He was precisely the most suitable Disciple for their Body Sect.

"Since It's Like This, I won't beat around the bush." The Chef's expression turned serious.

"I watched the recording of your match against Shrek Academy. Your Martial Soul is your heart, correct?"

"That's right." Jiang Yi nodded and admitted it directly.

Such basic information was difficult to conceal. At the same time, the way he looked at the Chef changed, because he had vaguely guessed the identity of the person In Front Of him.

Dressed as a Chef, bringing up a Body Martial Soul the moment he spoke, and possessing immense strength—according to what Jiang Yi knew, there was only one such person in Legend of the Dragon King.

That was the Body Sect's Sect Master, Mu Ye.

"At this point in time, Tang Wulin seemed to have only just met Mu Ye once and refused his offer to take him as a disciple."

"I Defeated Tang Wulin, and I have a genuine Body Martial Soul. It's only natural that he would come looking for me."

Mu Ye said seriously, "You have a Body Martial Soul. Have you heard of the Body Sect?"

"Of course I have. I heard it is a sect dedicated to cultivating Body Martial Souls, and everyone within the sect possesses one."

"Unfortunately, the Body Sect has not appeared on the Douluo Continent for a very long time." Jiang Yi sighed.

That sigh was completely sincere. When he had awakened his Body Martial Soul, he had wondered whether he could become Mu Ye's apprentice.

Unfortunately, as an Orphan, he had no way of searching for a Title Douluo whose whereabouts were uncertain.

Even if he found him, could his Body Martial Soul, which had no Attack Power whatsoever, truly make Mu Ye accept him as a disciple?

Under those circumstances, he could only give up on the idea of becoming an apprentice and find his own way to Become Stronger.

Now that he had Become Stronger, he no longer needed to seek Mu Ye out. Mu Ye had come to him instead.

Seeing Jiang Yi's sincere expression, Mu Ye smiled as well.

This made things much easier.

He was now determined to take Jiang Yi as his Disciple.

Jiang Yi possessed a Body Martial Soul and extraordinary talent. Moreover, Mu Ye had just witnessed Jiang Yi's tremendous talent in forging.

Once Jiang Yi grew up, their Body Sect would no longer need to worry about lacking top-grade Rare Metal for their Battle Armor.

"I am Mu Ye, the current Sect Master of the Body Sect."

"Child, are you willing to become my Disciple?" Mu Ye asked directly.

"Are there any conditions?" Jiang Yi asked rather than agreeing immediately.

"To become my Disciple, you must withdraw from Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy," Mu Ye said in a deep voice.

A look of understanding appeared in Jiang Yi's eyes. He knew Mu Ye would certainly bring this up.

The reason Mu Ye had not accepted Tang Wulin as his disciple was because Tang Wulin belonged to Shrek Academy.

There was bad blood between the Body Sect and Shrek Academy.

During the era of The Unrivaled Tang Sect ten thousand years ago, Du Bisi, the Body Sect's Sect Master, had been killed by Mu En, the master of Sea God Pavilion. However, Mu En had also been severely injured in that battle.

The Body Sect and Shrek were not completely hostile to one another. They competed, but they also cooperated.

Because of this, Mu Ye had been unwilling to accept Tang Wulin as his Disciple in the beginning.

However, the enmity between the Body Sect and Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy—or rather, the Sun Moon Empire—was far greater than its enmity with Shrek.

It could be said that the reason the Body Sect had declined to its current state was entirely because of the Sun Moon Empire.

This was a feud that could not be reconciled. Naturally, Mu Ye did not want his Disciple to remain at Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy.

Jiang Yi fell into thought. Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy was not somewhere he absolutely had to stay.

After all, before he displayed his talent, every resource he had obtained at Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy had been earned through completing missions himself.

That Ten Thousand Year Spirit had likewise been a reward he received only after helping Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy defeat Shrek.

Leaving would not count as any sort of betrayal. Under normal circumstances, he would have graduated from the academy anyway.

"Alright, I accept this condition." Jiang Yi finally nodded.

Becoming Mu Ye's apprentice would be a good thing for him. Mu Ye was, after all, a backer at the level of a Title Douluo.

The Body Sect also possessed secret techniques that could teach him the most suitable cultivation methods.

There was another, even more important point: Mu Ye was friends with Divine Craftsman Zhen Hua.

If he could use this opportunity to learn forging techniques from Divine Craftsman Zhen Hua, that would naturally be ideal.

These were things he could not obtain by remaining at Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy.

"Good!" Mu Ye exclaimed excitedly.

If he could take Jiang Yi as his Disciple, the Body Sect would surely become even stronger in the future.

"From this day onward, you are my, Mu Ye's, second Disciple. Your eldest martial brother has important matters to attend to. I'll introduce you to him later," Mu Ye said with a smile.

"Martial brother?" Jiang Yi nodded silently. Naturally, he knew where his martial brother was.

"I saw everything you did in the Forge Room today. Your talent in forging is unprecedented. An ordinary blacksmith cannot teach you."

"As your Teacher, I will head to Heaven Dou City first and find you a forging Teacher."

"Once you have completed your withdrawal from Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy, come find me at the Blacksmith Association in Heaven Dou City." Mu Ye rose to his feet.

"Yes, Teacher." Jiang Yi also stood and bowed.

Mu Ye nodded with a satisfied smile. With a flash, he left the place directly.

Jiang Yi sat back down. Such delicious food could not be wasted.
