Apprenticeship

Time flowed leisurely, passing in the blink of an eye; it had been over half a month since Qin Tian left the Crown Prince's Residence.

Qian Renxue gazed toward the distant horizon from time to time, the worry between her brows never dissipating.

"Has Xiao Tian arrived in Spirit City yet? It's been over half a month, why hasn't he sent me a message?"

In the void, the two Title Douluo guarding Qian Renxue exchanged glances, both remaining silently speechless.

Outside Spirit City, Qin Tian stepped off the carriage and looked at the towering Spirit City, his heart filled with deep emotion.

"Let's go, the Great Elder is waiting for you."

Qin Tian nodded slightly and followed them toward the Gongfeng Dian.

Inside the Elder Hall, all seven elders were present and had not departed.

"Great Elder, Qin Tian has arrived."

The Great Elder Qian Daoliu opened his eyes and looked outward, his gaze as calm as an ancient well.

He had never seen a genius with dual super spirits and innate full spirit power before.

Even Bibi Dong only possessed dual top-tier spirits, not dual super spirits.

"Bring Qin Tian to see me."

Hearing this voice from outside the Gongfeng Dian, Qin Tian stepped forward and walked toward the main gate.

Upon entering the hall, the first thing that caught his eye was a tall statue of an angel. Beneath the statue, a middle-aged man in golden-white robes sat cross-legged.

His hair was completely white, yet his face appeared as youthful as a young man's, his golden eyes seemingly capable of peering into the human heart.

The moment Qin Tian saw him, he knew his identity: the invincible of the sky, the Great Elder of Spirit Hall, the ninety-nine-level peerless Douluo, Qian Daoliu.

His gaze shifted downward, landing on familiar faces—it was indeed Golden Crocodile Douluo and Qingluan Douluo. As for the remaining four, he had never seen them before.

"Qin Tian pays his respects to the esteemed elders."

Qin Tian bowed slightly, saluting the seven of them.

The gazes of the seven elders fell upon Qin Tian, and in an instant, he felt immense pressure.

"Qin Tian, dual super spirits, Holy Light Tiger King and Qingtian War Halberd, innate full spirit power."

Great Elder Qian Daoliu spoke calmly. His voice was not loud, yet it sounded like a thunderclap in Qin Tian's ears.

Hearing this, Qin Tian did not hesitate in the slightest and immediately summoned his spirit.

"Spirit Avatar!"

As the Holy Light Tiger King possessed him, Qin Tian's muscles instantly expanded, his bones popped, and his arms doubled in size, covered in white fur. His palms transformed into sharp claws, each eight inches long.

The "King" character pattern appeared on his forehead, his silver hair danced, his eyes were as vast as the stars, and holy light swirled around him, suffusing the air with a divine aura.

The wings on his back gave a gentle flap, and the aura belonging to a super spirit permeated the surroundings of the palace.

The seven elders watched Qin Tian with his spirit possessed, all nodding slightly.

"Holy Light Tiger King!"

Qin Tian retracted his spirit and then summoned the Qingtian War Halberd.

Watching the Qingtian War Halberd and feeling the unique aura of the super spirit, the seven elders felt completely reassured.

Even with Qian Renxue's letter, they had found it hard to believe without seeing it with their own eyes.

"A Great Spirit Master; if I recall correctly, you should have awakened your spirit not long ago."

Hearing the inquiry, Qin Tian nodded slightly and responded neither servilely nor overbearingly.

"That is correct. It has been only one month since I awakened my spirit, and I am now a level 27 Great Spirit Master."

"My first spirit ring is 4,500 years old, from a Golden Light Tiger, and my second spirit ring is 9,500 years old, from a Diamond Tiger. Both spirit skills are augmentation skills that can be stacked."

Qin Tian revealed his background directly. The reason he did so was that he would be cultivating here; if the seven elders did not know his true strength, how could they teach him according to his aptitude?

Only by knowing his roots and foundation could they better instruct him and devise a superior training plan.

The seven elders listened to Qin Tian's words, their eyes filled with shock.

A six-year-old level 27 Great Spirit Master, with a 4,500-year-old first ring and a 9,500-year-old second ring—they knew exactly what this represented.

"Good, good, good."

"Qin Tian, you are very impressive. Xue'er did not misjudge you."

Qian Daoliu paused here, then his tone deepened, his voice growing slightly heavy.

"Qin Tian, are you willing to take me as your master?"

Hearing Qian Daoliu's words, Qin Tian was completely stunned. He had not expected Qian Daoliu to take him as a disciple. He had previously assumed that by coming to the Elder Hall to cultivate, he might be noticed by one of the other elders and taken as a student, but now...

He knew this was an opportunity for him; becoming Qian Daoliu's disciple offered far more benefits than drawbacks.

Furthermore, given his relationship with Qian Renxue, becoming Qian Daoliu's disciple seemed like the best possible choice.

"Disciple Qin Tian pays respects to Master."

Without the slightest hesitation, Qin Tian bowed to Qian Daoliu to perform the apprenticeship ceremony.

Any hesitation at all would be an act of irresponsibility toward himself.

With Qian Daoliu as his backer, who in the spirit master world would dare to act against him in the future?

Although Bibi Dong and the Gongfeng Dian were at odds, he had no choice, simply because he was destined to be Qian Renxue's person, and was naturally opposed to Bibi Dong.

"Good, good, good."

Regarding taking Qin Tian as his disciple, Qian Daoliu naturally had his own thoughts.

First, Qin Tian was an orphan adopted by his granddaughter; second was Qin Tian's potential. After he sacrificed himself, with Qin Tian present, the Spirit Hall would still have a Peerless Douluo to hold the fort.

"This is the apprenticeship gift from your master; keep it well."

Qian Daoliu took out the item he had prepared long ago from his storage soul tool, and wrapped in soul power, it was delivered before Qin Tian.

Looking at the lead box before him, his heart could not help but skip a beat.

The lead box was two meters long; he didn't even need to think to know what was inside.

"Teacher, isn't this too precious?"

Hearing Qin Tian's words, Qian Daoliu smiled indifferently.

"Since you have taken me as your master, there is no need for such talk between us."

Hearing this, Qin Tian took a deep breath and then stored the lead box into his storage soul tool.

"A gift from an elder must not be refused; this disciple thanks you, Teacher."

Qian Daoliu was very satisfied with Qin Tian's attitude, and a rare smile appeared on his face.

"Qin Tian, this is the Second Gongfeng Golden Crocodile, and the Third Gongfeng Qingluan, whom you have already met, so I will not introduce them to you further."

"This is the Fourth Gongfeng, Lion Douluo, whose martial soul is the Blazing Lion, a level 97 peak power attack system Douluo."

"This is the Fifth Gongfeng, Light Feather Douluo, whose martial soul is the Light Feather Divine Bow, a level 96 peak power attack system Douluo."

"These are the Sixth Gongfeng, Qianjun Douluo, and the Seventh Gongfeng, Subduing Demon Douluo. They are biological brothers, and both their martial souls are the Coiling Dragon Staff; they are level 96 peak power attack system Douluos."

As Qian Daoliu introduced them, Golden Crocodile Douluo and the others all brought out the gifts they had prepared.

Seeing this, Qin Tian accepted them one by one and then thanked them.

After Qian Daoliu finished the introductions, Qin Tian finally spoke.

"Teacher, esteemed Gongfengs, I have also prepared some gifts."

As he spoke, Qin Tian took out the immortal herbs he had prepared long ago from his storage soul tool.

"Teacher, this is the Ten Thousand Year Blood Ginseng. Although it does not reach the rank of an immortal grade, it is still a rare treasure. Its effect is to restore one's own blood and qi, remove hidden injuries and ailments, and cleanse impurities from the body."

"Second Gongfeng, this is the Thousand Year Snow Ganoderma..."

Qin Tian handed the jade boxes to everyone one by one, informing them of how to consume them and their medicinal effects.

Qian Daoliu and the others took them with smiles, very satisfied with the gifts Qin Tian had prepared.

Although they had heard Golden Crocodile and Qingluan mention immortal herbs, they had never seen them with their own eyes and did not know exactly what they were like.

When they personally sensed the immense energy contained within the immortal herbs, they already had ideas in their minds.

They might not need them, but the younger generation in their families did. With the assistance of the immortal herbs, the glory of their families could continue to be carried on.
