Reopening the Gates to Take Disciples
"Xiuyuan thanks Master and all fellow disciples for their help."
Precious Elephant Kingdom, Nie Xiuyuan bowed respectfully to Chu Feng, and then thanked everyone.
Chu Feng smiled and said, "No need for thanks. As long as you can resolve your inner conflict, that's more important than anything else. What are your plans next?"
Nie Xiuyuan, "Reporting to Master, this disciple plans to continue traveling around the Profound Heaven Continent, crossing the Endless Sea, and visiting other continents."
The Profound Heaven Continent consists of eight major continents, also known as the Eight Desolations: Profound Continent, Sword Continent, Heaven Continent, He Continent, Dragon Continent, Barbarian Continent, Vast Continent, and Desolate Continent.
The continent where Chu Feng and his companions lived was called Profound Continent.
The main group consists of Human Race cultivators. Although there are also many Human Race cultivators on other continents, except for the Sword Continent and the Heaven Continent, the other hundred races dominate.
"Can."
Chu Feng agreed without hesitation, "As the saying goes, 'Reading ten thousand books is not as good as Wanli,' it would be good to go out and see the world."
Nie Xiuyuan cupped his hands and said, "Master, this disciple will definitely travel throughout the Eight Desolations and brew the most delicious wine in the world."
"You have ambition! Then I'll be waiting for you at the Dao-Seeking Academy, young man. Bring back your finely brewed wine."
As Chu Feng spoke, he gave Nie Xiuyuan a thumbs up.
"This disciple will take his leave now."
Nie Xiuyuan finished speaking, he summoned Kunkun and then rode Kun away.
Chu Feng turned his gaze to the others. "Who among you will be returning with me?"
Qin Qin, Xu Caichen, Han Li, Chu Caiyi, Fang Mu, and the others stepped forward without hesitation.
Xiao Chen, Cao Youqian, and the others said in unison, "Master, we want to continue our training."
Only Chen Qianqian and Bai Qian looked rather reserved.
Seeing the two women's expressions, Chu Feng smiled and asked, "What, do you also want to go out and gain some experience?"
Chen Qianqian nodded. "Master, I want to continue my travels."
After saying that, she added, "Master, I will take good care of myself and Junior Sister Bai Qian."
"Ha ha."
Chu Feng chuckled upon hearing this, "You little rascal, taking care of Qianqian? Who knows who will be taking care of whom in the end? Alright, if you want to go out and play, then go ahead and play. Remember, if you can't win a fight, run away. If you really can't win, just mention my name."
"Um."
Chen Qianqian nodded in agreement.
"Let's go, come with me back to the Dao-Seeking Academy."
After Chu Feng finished speaking, he waved his hand and led his disciples away from everyone's sight.
Three days later, Chu Feng returned to the Dao-Seeking Academy with his disciples.
At this time, news of the Great Sage's Battle of the Precious Elephant Kingdom had spread throughout the entire Profound Continent.
Upon hearing this news, the disciples of the Dao-Seeking Academy were all filled with a burning desire to join the Miscellaneous Dao Institute for cultivation.
Another Outer Sect Grand Competition is about to begin.
No disciples from the Miscellaneous Dao Institute participated in this Outer Sect Grand Competition. Chu Feng only made a symbolic appearance before disappearing.
He had just returned to the Miscellaneous Dao Institute when he received a letter from the dean.
He immediately opened it and saw that it only had the words "Come to my courtyard for a chat" written on it.
Without giving it much thought, Chu Feng flew towards the Dean's villa with the Great Sage Golden Wing.
The man and the eagle had just landed outside the Dean's villa when a steward was already waiting there.
Upon seeing the two Great Sage in person, the steward hurriedly said respectfully, "Chief Chu, Grandmaster Jin, the Dean is already waiting inside."
"Um."
Chu Feng nodded slightly, responded, and then followed the steward toward the dean's courtyard.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, Chu Feng saw the dean brewing tea. Upon seeing this, he quickly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Dean, this is a small matter, so I can handle it."
Great Sage Golden Wing: That sounds like one of my lines.
Deacon: How come I didn't think of that? Could this be the difference between me and the Great Sage?
The dean said with a smile, "You rascal, you really haven't changed at all."
"Hey-hey."
Chu Feng chuckled, "Dean, you flatter me. In your presence, Little Feng 'm just a child."
Great Sage Golden Wing: Damn it, you stole my lines again.
"Sit."
The dean did not give Chu Feng another chance to curry favor.
Chu Feng didn't say much, and quietly sat aside waiting for the dean to speak.
After everyone had drunk a cup of tea, the dean slowly spoke, "Little Feng, you've become lazy."
???
Chu Feng immediately gave a confused look, but still smiled and said, "Dean, you are right. I will give you proper guidance when I get back, so that you can accelerate your cultivation."
"..."
The dean was instantly speechless. "That's not what I meant. Think about how long it's been since your Miscellaneous Dao Institute recruited any new faces? Ximen Ye and Qin Yun were both recruited by Xiao Chen and Ye Beixuan many years ago."
Chu Feng instantly understood. "This disciple will return immediately and have his subordinates recruit more disciples."
"Can."
The dean had initially considered having Chu Feng continue taking on disciples, but upon realizing that the young man's criteria for accepting disciples were rather strange, he immediately abandoned the idea.
After exchanging pleasantries, the two returned to Miaomiao Mountain.
A moment later, Chu Feng summoned all the disciples in the mountain to the main courtyard.
We pay our respects to our Master.
Everyone bowed respectfully to Chu Feng.
"The main reason I summoned you here today is for the upcoming disciple-acceptance ceremony."
Chu Feng spoke slowly and deliberately.
The eyes of everyone present lit up when they heard the words "apprenticeship ceremony".
Xu Caichen asked excitedly, "Master, are you going to take on another disciple?"
"Not me, but you."
Chu Feng paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "You are all veterans of our Miscellaneous Dao Institute, so you should know the rules for accepting Miscellaneous Dao Institute. You only need to meet one of the conditions."
However, unlike before, our Miscellaneous Dao Institute will now be divided into an inner and outer academy. All disciples who enter will cultivate in the outer academy, and you few will take turns guiding them.
Disciples who pass the assessment three years later can enter the inner sect, and you can then take them as your personal disciples.
Those present were still a little stunned after hearing these words.
The longest they've been a student at the Dao-Seeking Academy is no more than twenty years, which is just a blink of an eye for cultivators.
Seeing everyone's stunned expression, Chu Feng smiled and asked, "What, you can't do it?"
Qin Qin spoke first, saying, "This disciple is not yet ready to be a teacher."
Chu Feng said unhurriedly, "If you don't know how, then I will instruct you in the same way I instructed you back then. As the saying goes, 'Reviewing the old helps one understand the new, and one can become a teacher.'"
Guiding disciples in their practice is also a form of practice.
After listening, everyone said in unison, "We will remember our Master's teachings."
Chu Feng: "Alright, let's leave it at that. You, Elder, will be in charge of Qin'er's disciple selection this time."
"Promise."
Qin Qin responded and then withdrew, beginning to ponder what preparations she should make.
The news spread the next day that the Miscellaneous Dao Institute was going to accept disciples again.
After hearing this, the crowd was in a state of mixed emotions: some were happy, while others were sad.
The good news is that the Miscellaneous Dao Institute is accepting disciples, so someone can become a Miscellaneous Dao Institute and receive guidance from the greatest Great Sage of the time. The bad news is that the Miscellaneous Dao Institute only accepts outer disciples.
However, as the news spread, many cultivators who wanted to join the Dao-Seeking Academy flocked to Dao-Seeking City...
