" Xiao Wu... you..."
The light on the Trait Entry Detection Platform had not yet completely faded.
Tang San's pupils suddenly contracted—the three flashing red lights dyed the entire Detection Platform a dazzling red.
He subconsciously turned his head and saw Xiao Wu standing in the center of the red light, her whole body as if she had been set on fire, with the tips of her hair glowing faintly red.
Tang San's Adam's apple bobbed, as if he wanted to say something, but then he heard a clear, melodious footstep behind him.
He whirled around and saw a figure in white robes approaching, bathed in light. The man moved with unhurried grace, his clothes spotless, and his eyes seemed to be veiled in a thin layer of moonlight—it was none other than Su Chen, the Immortal had just returned from beyond the mountains. Tang San quickly bowed and clasped his hands in greeting.
" The Xiao San greets the Immortal."
Xiao Wu, who was on the Detection Platform, also caught a glimpse of Su Chen and Ning Rongrong, who had just returned.
Her heart skipped a beat. Before she could even rejoice at the three top -Supreme-Grade Trait Entry Supreme-Grade Trait Entry, her gaze was fixed on one of them—those six words were like a red-hot branding iron, burning her fingertips until they trembled: "Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Transformation ".
She frantically raised her hand to cover it, but the words on the Trait Entry were quite large; how could her palm possibly block them?
A blush spread from her neck down to the tips of her ears; she stood there gesturing wildly, looking utterly comical.
"Disappear!"
"Why haven't they disappeared yet!"
"It's all over! It's all over!"
However, Su Chen simply took a step forward. That step was extremely light, but as soon as it landed on the ground, it seemed as if something invisible settled down with it, and in an instant he was in front of Xiao Wu.
He glanced at the lights on the Detection Platform, his tone as calm as if he were remarking on the fine weather. "I already knew about this Trait Entry of yours; there's no need to panic."
Xiao Wu froze, slowly lowering her hand from the Trait Entry. She gave an awkward smile, her voice tinged with a hint of probing. "Then... Immortal, you don't mind?"
Su Chen stood with his hands behind his back, his white robes gleaming softly in the peripheral light of the Detection Platform. He turned his head slightly, his expression still calm and composed.
"Since you have taken human form, you should act like one. All things have spirits and wisdom. The Immortal Mountain wouldn't stoop to such a morally questionable act to harm you for the sake of your secret. You can rest assured."
As Su Chen finished speaking, he waved his hand slightly, and those Trait Entry vanished into thin air. Even Ning Rongrong, who had rushed over excitedly to see which three Supreme-Grade Trait Entry Xiao Wu had awakened, didn't see them. She immediately pouted at her teacher Su Chen in dissatisfaction.
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Wu felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from her heart.
She blinked, looking at the peerless, otherworldly, and otherworldly-looking Immortal before her, and suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of reverence and gratitude.
On this continent, she knew better than anyone what Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone meant. These were things that all Soul Master dreamed of, and for Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, even close relatives and siblings might turn against each other.
But this incredibly handsome young man simply brushed it off so lightly.
Her heart warmed, and mimicking Tang San's gesture when he became Tang San's disciple, she bent her knees and knelt down heavily.
"Then, Immortal Xiao Wu, I've heard that the Apprenticeship Standard of Immortal Mountain is to possess three Supreme-Grade Trait Entry. Now that Xiao Wu also possess three Supreme-Grade Trait Entry, Xiao Wu wish to become your disciple."
"Who told you that just because a character has Three Supreme-Grade Trait Entries, I'm obligated to take him as a disciple?"
Su Chen was pleased to see Xiao Wu kneel down immediately.
This shows that the girl also approves of his teaching, and if he takes on another student, he should be able to directly surpass the level 99 limit expert.
However, Su Chen frowned slightly, showing some resistance.
The nine Trait Entry about Xiao Wu are quite informative.
Especially this Trait Entry for " Peerless Devotion ".
Being sentimental is a good thing.
But it's also a bad thing.
Damn it, you want me to take in a lovelorn guy who'd die for someone else?
After I finish teaching her, will I make her a simp for the Little Sanzi man?
Are you kidding me?
Thinking of this, Su Chen's voice remained calm, yet it acted like an invisible barrier.
He glanced down at her, his gaze devoid of cold rejection, yet lacking any warmth of acceptance; it was simply as calm as a deep pool. "You are not suitable to be my student. You have your own opportunities, but they may not lie on the Immortal Mountain. I cannot accept you as my disciple."
" Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, let's go up the mountain."
Su Chen said calmly, and as soon as he finished speaking, he had already reached the top of the mountain.
Ning Rongrong was quite pleased to see this and gave Xiao Wu a playful expression:
"The teacher is right. Although finding three Trait Entry in the test means you have to accept someone as an apprentice, that's just the Apprenticeship Standard, not the standard for the teacher to accept students."
"Back then, even my junior sister Zhu Zhuqing had to become an apprentice twice before the teacher reluctantly accepted her. You should save your breath and just stick to doing a good job guarding the Detection Platform with Little Sanzi. Maybe the teacher will see your efforts and be willing to take you on as a student!"
"Hehe, not everyone can be a student of the Immortal Mountain!"
Seeing the teacher refuse someone made Ning Rongrong feel particularly happy for some reason.
The less a teacher accepts new students, the more precious she seems!
This also shows that she has a high status in the teacher's eyes!
Zhu Zhuqing slowly followed Ning Rongrong's footsteps, glanced at Xiao Wu, and said nothing.
"Ah?"
Xiao Wu knelt on the spot, staring blankly at the white figure that turned and left. She was stunned, and her mood plummeted from heaven to the bottom.
No, why won't you accept me?
" Xiao Wu, don't be sad. There must be a reason why the Immortal Elder didn't accept you. There will be other opportunities in the future."
Under the Moonlight, Xiao Wu, who had been rejected, sat on a maple tree with her knees drawn up to her chest, looking heartbroken.
Tang San sighed and comforted her.
Xiao Wu was very sad and didn't say anything.
"Alright then, Xiao Wu, call me if you need anything, I'll go cultivate over there for a bit."
Tang San had no choice but to find a blue stone, sit cross-legged, and begin cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill.
The bluestone was chilled by the night dew. Tang San frowned slightly when he sat cross-legged on it, but then relaxed.
The internal Mysterious Heaven Skill circulated through the meridians, like a warm stream slowly flowing over the limbs and bones.
Time passed little by little.
But suddenly, a dark owl swept across the sky, and then a black net caught Tang San.
Then several burly men suddenly appeared and surrounded Tang San.
Zhao Wuji's large hand gripped Tang San's nape like an iron clamp, lifting him off the bluestone. His rough voice rang out:
"Aren't you going to make a move?"
"Beat them all! Just don't kill them!"
"Anyone who doesn't fight, I'll beat them up first when we get back to the academy!"
"Let's take action, let's avenge the academy, let's avenge the Grandmaster!"
"It was this kid who abandoned the darkness for the light, betraying the academy and the Grandmaster!"
"Wait, are we Shrek the Dark Ones?"
"Hey, forget about all that, just fight!"
Bang bang bang--
In the darkness, Tang San's screams rang out.
On the red maple tree, Xiao Wu wiped away her tears and, upon hearing Tang San's scream, quickly stood up to check on him.
Who are you?
"How dare you cause trouble at the Immortal Mountain?"
"Don't run away if you dare!"
" Third Brother, are you alright?"
"I... I'm fine..."
When Xiao Wu removed the black net from Tang San's body, Tang San's face had turned into a pig's head.
In the distance, Flender looked worried:
"Old Zhao, if you beat His Haotian Douluo's son like this, do you really think he won't kill us, but will instead listen to our explanation and stand on our side?"
"Of course, how could His Haotian Douluo, such a proud person, tolerate his own child working as a doorman for someone else?"
"Hit and ran, got my revenge, that felt great!"
Zhao Wuji breathed a long sigh of relief. He had been thoroughly beaten by His Haotian Douluo before, but now he had beaten his son back. It felt great.
