Chapter 189: Chapter 189 True Disciple_1

"What’s your name?"

Master Baiyun was asking a prodigy’s name for the first time.

"Dai Yuling."

"Good name. Well, child, I’ll make an exception and take you as my true disciple. Although your potential has not reached five stars in any area, the fact that you can achieve four stars and ninety percent in three areas is very rare,"

Master Baiyun said with a smile.

"So she’s the one Master Baiyun referred to as his true disciple!"

"No wonder her potential is astounding!"

"Yes, indeed, tsk tsk, truly envious!"

"Thank you, Master!"

Dai Yuling was usually very calm, but today she couldn’t help but feel a bit excited, and she knelt on the ground right away.

"Get up, next one."

Master Baiyun looked at Ling Yixue, his gaze showing a trace of strangeness.

Ling Yixue walked up to the Seven-Star Flower and calmly dropped a drop of blood on it.

In this world, it seemed that nothing could excite her except for Ling Xiao.

"Buzz—!"

A terrifying sound erupted.

The Seven-Star Flower actually began to shake violently.

"Crack!"

It shattered!

"The Seven-Star Flower shattered?"

"How is that possible!"

Everyone was dumbstruck, including Master Baiyun, who had never seen anything like this before.

"How could you have fallen into the mortal world."

Master Baiyun uttered an incomprehensible remark before sighing and saying, "Your potential is astonishing, but I am not worthy to be your master. If you think highly of me, you can still become my true disciple."

"Another true disciple?"

This time, even Zuo Leng and Ming Tian on that side were shocked.

"Her soul potential exceeds seven stars, which is why the Seven-Star Flower burst. Some things you may not understand, this Seven-Star Flower is only a tool for assessing the potential of lower beings. She belongs to a higher lineage, for which there is another testing tool."

Master Baiyun explained, and then turned to Ling Xiao and Leng Mei, saying, "With the Seven-Star Flower shattered, you cannot undergo a complete test. However, I have another immature Seven-Star Flower here, with only four blossoms. If either of you can reach four stars in any area, you will be considered my beginner disciple."

Ling Xiao nodded and did not object.

The others didn’t dare object either.

A potential of four stars is not weak.

As for reaching five stars, no one had even considered it, because Master Baiyun’s judgement was not poor. If Ling Xiao and Leng Mei had the potential to reach five stars, he certainly would have noticed it.

Ling Xiao walked up nonchalantly and dropped a drop of blood.

"All three areas of potential have reached four stars, Master, this child’s potential is incredible. I think his potential is no less than Dai Yuling’s. Could we make an exception and take him as a true disciple?"

This time, it was Lin Ze who spoke.

Lin Ze had always held Ling Xiao in high regard, and now with all four blossoms displaying full three colors, he felt entitled to say so.

"His potential is at most four and a half stars in all areas, not on par with Dai Yuling,"

Master Baiyun simply stated, "Lin Ze, I know you are eager to find talent, but for him to become my beginner disciple is already quite good."

Lin Ze clenched his teeth and said, "Master, that’s not fair. It’s not his fault the Seven-Star Flower shattered. If we had another one, I believe his potential would definitely reach four stars and ninety percent in all areas."

Generally, Lin Ze would not argue with his master.

But this time, he was truly going all out for Ling Xiao.

"Lin Ze, do you think the Seven-Star Flower grows by the roadside like a common weed, readily available whenever you say so? I also had to search for many years before I managed to obtain these two flowers, one mature and one just grown to four blossoms,"

Master Baiyun seemed a little angry.

"Master, you will definitely regret this."

Lin Ze said.

"Oh? Well, I am quite eager to see what he has that will make me regret!"

"Lin Shuai, that’s enough. To become an apprentice disciple of Master Baiyun is already more than I could ask for. I hope you and Master won’t fall out over me."

Ling Xiao was moved by Lin Ze’s actions, but he could tell that Master Baiyun would definitely not agree.

It was better for him to step back rather than continue the argument, especially since there was no Seven-Star Flower to prove his claim.

"Hehe, good kid. Lin Ze, you should learn from him. All right, next."

Master Baiyun no longer wanted to linger on this issue.

Leng Mei stepped forward and dropped a drop of blood.

"Soul potential three stars, inner strength potential three stars, body potential four stars."

"Not bad. You also qualify to become my apprentice disciple. That kid just now, Yin Ran, right? I’m sorry, but you don’t stand a chance."

Although Yin Ran’s potential was not bad, it paled in comparison to the rest.

In his heart, Yin Ran felt helpless but what could he do.

"All right, Ling Yixue, Dai Yuling, Butterfly Dance, Zhu Hua, Fei Yu, Ling Xiao, Fei Liu, Lu Xing, Shi Lei, Leng Mei, the ten of you stay. The rest may go and claim your quasi-Transcendent Martial Arts."

White Cloud Sect Leader, Real Person Yiran, announced loudly.

The others felt somewhat unconvinced, but no one dared to make trouble there.

Let alone the Transcendent Realm Master Baiyun, even the three Ninth Layer Pinnacle Martial Masters, Lin Ze, Wan 犇, and White Cloud Sect Leader, could squash them with a single finger.

"From today on, Ling Yixue and Dai Yuling will be my true disciples, and the other eight will be apprentice disciples. Now, pay your respects to me as your master."

Master Baiyun was in a good mood, he had thought only Ling Yixue would qualify as his true disciple, but Dai Yuling was not far behind.

Having two true disciples was a first for him.

In the past, Zuo Leng and Ming Tian were received three years apart.

All ten bowed in respect to their new master.

Master Baiyun stroked his beard, glancing indifferently at the other eight, but his gaze lingered on Ling Yixue and Dai Yuling, his expression turning pleasantly satisfied.

Indeed, there is a great difference between true disciples and apprentice disciples.

The true disciples are those who receive Master Baiyun’s legacy, while the apprentice disciples only get some resources and occasional guidance from him.

Receiving his true legacy was an absolute impossibility.

"You eight remember, being an apprentice disciple isn’t much. When you leave, don’t say that you are my disciples. If you breach this, then you will not even have the chance to receive guidance from me in the future, understood?"

These words might sound hurtful, but Master Baiyun was serious.

Most masters cherish their reputation and do not want others to speak ill of them for choosing worthless disciples.

In fact, that is true. Master Baiyun would only pass on his lifetime’s ultimate techniques to Zuo Leng, Ming Tian, Ling Yixue, and Dai Yuling, for they were his real disciples.

The other eight really don’t count much as disciples.

That’s just how it is.

"Disciples will heed the master’s orders!"

Ling Xiao and the other eight lowered their heads and responded.

"Good, Lin Ze, Wan 犇, you probably have other matters to attend to, so go on with your business. I have some things to say to these kids."

Upon hearing the eight’s response, Master Baiyun nodded his satisfaction and then spoke to Lin Ze and Wan 犇.

"Yes!"

Afterwards, Lin Ze and Wan 犇 left, and the White Cloud Sect Leader, Real Person Yiran, went to oversee the distribution of the quasi-Transcendent Martial Arts.

Within the entire True Spirit Hall, only Master Baiyun’s four true disciples and eight apprentice disciples remained.

It was clear that Master Baiyun had some things to say to them that were not meant for others’ ears.
