With a smile on his face, Jian Shiyi fixed his gaze on Jian Chen. If nothing went wrong, he would have another genius disciple in the way of the sword.

Behind him, a group of disciples also revealed friendly smiles as they looked at Jian Chen. If nothing went wrong, they would have one more junior brother.

“Thank you for your kindness, Master. Forgive me for not being able to agree.”

Jian Chen cupped his fists and shook his head as he rejected Jian Shiyi.

Once these words were said, everyone fell silent.

An old teacher had personally invited Jian Chen, but Jian Chen had actually rejected it?

Was he crazy?!

“Do you know what you’re saying now?”

Before Jian Shiyi could speak, the disciples behind him revealed displeasure. They took a step forward and stared at Jian Chen.

Jian Chen did not utter a word.

Others thought that he was tough and determined, but in fact, only he knew that when he was about to give up, it was because Xuan Yi’s figure gave him endless motivation.

Jian Chen regarded Xuan Yi as a beacon on the path of the sword.

When he was in the Middle East, he wanted to become a disciple of the Xuan Sword sect and ask for guidance from Xuan Yi. In the end, Xuan Yi left the Middle East.

For this reason, Jian Chen followed Xuan Yi’s footsteps all the way and trained for close to half a year.

Without Xuan Yi, Jian Chen would have become a disciple of Jian Shiyi.

However, since Xuan Yi was a teacher and Jian Chen saw it, Jian Chen would not miss this opportunity!

Seeing that Jian Chen did not utter anything, he faintly looked in other directions.

Jian Shiyi followed Jian Chen’s gaze and saw Xuan Yi sitting at the side with an indifferent expression.

The first time he saw Xuan Yi, Jian Shiyi could not help but frown.

He was considered an old veteran in the middle Saint Academy and more or less had his own sources of information. On the first day that Xuan Yi came, he had basically understood Xuan Yi’s situation.

According to rumors, Xuan Yi had been holding on to Dongsheng Academy’s Dan Lingzi’s Jade Talisman all the way to the principal’s office. After he came out, he became a teacher in the middle Saint Academy.

From Jian Shiyi’s point of view, Xuan Yi had obviously pulled some strings.

At that time, there were still some tutors of the middle saint academy who were very angry.

They felt that the principal was muddle-headed, which was because of these worm-like connections that the middle Saint Academy’s status continued to decline. If they couldn’t get this worm out, the middle Saint Academy would probably continue to decline, it would continue to fall below the ranks of the top five academies in the south continent.

Jian Shiyi even tried to persuade these instructors to stop.

After all, as a veteran, he could see that the headmaster had let Xuan Yi in in order to befriend Dan Lingzi.

Since he had entered with Dan Lingzi’s Jade Talisman, he must be a teacher of the Alchemy Palace. Since he didn’t have much to do with martial artists like them, he should just enter.

“You have to think carefully. That young man just became a master of our Middle Saint Academy a while ago. He might not even be a teacher of our martial arts palace.”

Jian Shiyi stared intently at Xuan Yi and frowned.

He really could not bear to let a genius with such outstanding talent in the way of the sword join the tutelage of an alchemy teacher. Moreover, it was the kind of teacher who came in through the back door!

Jian Chen cupped his fists slightly. “I have been yearning for Xuan Yi for a long time. Other than Xuan Yi, I will not worship anyone else!”

His tone was firm and his attitude was persistent.

As soon as he said this, more than thirty teachers present turned their gazes to Xuan Yi.

Seeing that he had chosen more than thirty disciples, some people had strange expressions on their faces.

Wasn’t this an alchemy teacher who came in through the back door?

Why was he still choosing more than thirty martial Dao disciples in such a manner.

Immediately, someone opened his mouth and revealed a displeased expression. “If you want to become a disciple of teacher Xuan Yi, you can naturally do so. However, teacher Xuan Yi might not have the qualifications to take you in. My martial Dao Palace is recruiting students, so why are you here to join in the fun?”

Boom!

The entire venue was in an uproar!

A burst of noise immediately erupted in the venue!

The people from the Dao of Alchemy Palace not only ran over when the Martial Dao Palace was recruiting students, but they also chose more than 30 disciples?!

What was he trying to do?

Did he want to create a ruckus while the Martial Dao Palace was recruiting students?

Immediately, everyone looked at Xuan Yi in a strange manner.

When Jian Chen heard this, he raised his head in shock and looked at Xuan Yi in disbelief!

Sensing that everyone’s gaze was focused on him, the more than 30 disciples in front of Xuan Yi revealed astonished expressions.

Xuan Yi grinned and took out a token and placed it in front of him.

All of a sudden, the token landed on the table with a crisp sound.

With the Middle Saint Academy’s certification, there was absolutely no possibility of faking it. All the doubters would automatically shut up.

Since it was true that they were martial arts instructors, they naturally had the qualifications to take in disciples.

And if they offended the middle Saint Academy’s instructors, unless they did not want to live anymore, they would be in big trouble.

Xuan Yi shook his head and kept the token.

In the face of absolute strength, all doubts were useless.

The moment the token was revealed, all the doubters were shocked.

Not only was he a teacher of the sword, he was also a genuine teacher of the alchemy.

However, Xuan Yi could not be bothered to reveal his alchemy skills to these people.

Jian Shiyi frowned deeply. He did not feel the slightest presence of sword Qi on Xuan Yi’s body.

Either Xuan Yi did not have any sword qi, but since he had become a teacher, this was completely impossible.

Or Xuan Yi’s attainments in sword principle were even higher than his.

Sword eleven took a deep look at Xuan Yi and turned his head away.

Since that was the case, one should take care of oneself.

For the sake of a student, he could not have a conflict with Xuan Yi, who was also a teacher. It was not worth it.

Moreover, he had a vague feeling that he could not see through Xuan Yi.

Seeing that Jian Chen had really walked in front of Xuan Yi, the disciples behind Jian Shiyi were very indignant.

“Missing master is your greatest regret! I hope that you won’t regret it in a few years!”

Jian Chen paused slightly and shook his head as he burst into laughter.

Missing Xuan Yi was his greatest regret.

All of them did not know that Xuan Yi was the Immortal, who was destined to end the long night of the way of the sword!

He was destined to not regret taking Xuan Yi as his master!

In the Middle Saint Academy’s new Student Plaza, there were more than enough people to climb the white jade stairs.

The number of people continued to increase, and even more people stared at Jian Chen. They watched as he walked step by step to Xuan Yi and bowed, addressing him as master.

“Master, please accept me as your disciple!”

Xuan Yi smiled.

Jian Chen’s aptitude was definitely not bad. When he was in the Middle East, he was already the sword master’s disciple, and he was even carried by the sword spirit. Now that he had comprehended sword intent, no one would be able to cover him with dust.

Jian Shiyi opened his mouth to accept Jian Chen. As a newcomer, Xuan Yi originally wanted to forget about it.

He did not expect that Jian Chen seemed to have decided on him, Xuan Yi, and even directly rejected Jian Shiyi. He was determined to become Jian Chen’s disciple. Since he had already reached this stage, he naturally would not reject Jian Chen.

“Stand up. Stand behind me.”

Xuan Yi opened his mouth and acknowledged Jian Chen’s identity. After taking out the Sword Dao token, it was equivalent to accepting Jian Chen as his master.

He cupped his fists and stood up quickly. His face was red with excitement as he stood behind Xuan Yi.
