Apprentice: I live in Xuanjie, from nine to five

The three master and apprentice sat down in doubt.

The room was surprisingly quiet, and the atmosphere became subtle.

Ye Chen picked up the teacup, took a sip, saw Ruan Xingfei and Xia Wan'er looked at each other again, and said, "Don't be dazed, this is the best herbal tea."

The two took a few sips before the suzerain began to explain his intentions.

"Yesterday, I heard from Ling Yun that you brought a total of five disciples to offer incense to the mourning hall. I didn't have time yesterday, so why didn't you bring them together today, and let me see?"

"Uh... the disciples sent to deliver the news said to bring one or two disciples, so I didn't bring them all."

Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out it was because of this.

"You only selected one disciple at the disciple acceptance ceremony, why suddenly there are a few more disciples now, what are their origins?"

Of course, Ye Chen couldn't tell their origins, so he could only fool around: "I picked one up in the nearby mountains, one I saw at the market, and one..."

Before he could finish speaking, the suzerain interrupted him.

"Okay, it doesn't matter. I just hope that at least one of your five disciples will be eligible to participate in the Xuanjie Martial Arts Tournament."

"Don't worry, the suzerain, Ye Mou will definitely teach him well when he goes back!"

"I'm really worried," the suzerain said after a pause, "But this time you performed well in the Nanban treasure hunt, and the elders are not as demanding of you as before?"

"How to say?"

Could it be that they felt that they were too useless, and couldn't bear to drive themselves out of the sect, so they decided to relax their requirements?
"If one of your disciples can pass the Zongmen Competition and get a place in the competition, then you master and apprentice don't have to leave Beiming Holy Land."

Ruan Xingfei was dubious and couldn't help asking: "Really?"

What I said before was that Ye Chen and the others did not have to pack up and leave because they achieved the top ten excellent results in the Xuanjie Martial Arts Tournament.

Now as long as you hit the top five in the sect, you can stay. Wouldn't the pressure be too much less?

"After entering the top five of the sect, you master and apprentice can continue to stay on Tuosha Peak, but I will temporarily hand over the position of peak master to my disciple Xiao Lingyun."

"That's it..." Ye Chen understood the suzerain's plan.

If he is qualified for the competition but fails to win the ranking in the Xuanjie Martial Arts Tournament, the suzerain will hand over the Tuosha Peak to Xiao Lingyun.

At that time, his situation became very embarrassing, and he wanted to call Xiao Lingyun the peak master.

And the few of them as mentors and apprentices are equivalent to relying on others.

Xia Wan'er asked: "Sovereign, what if you can enter the top ten in the Xuanjie martial arts competition?"

She didn't want Ye Chen to be replaced.

The suzerain said earnestly: "Young people, don't be too ambitious. Among the two treasures I assigned to you, the jade pendant is used to ensure that there will be no accidents in your arena."

In the beginning, Ye Chen's mediocrity made the elders dislike him, so he deliberately found this reason to enter the top ten in the competition and wanted to expel him from Beiming Holy Land.

But because Ye Chen helped a lot on this treasure hunt, they changed their minds and decided to give Ye Chen a chance to stay.

To be able to come back safely and to have a place in the Beiming Holy Land is considered good, but it is a bit of a dream to want to enter the top ten of the Xuanjie martial arts competition.

At this time, Ruan Xingfei's eyes became firmer, and she asked, "What if I really excel in the martial arts competition?"

The suzerain sneered inexplicably, and said: "It means that Master Ye Feng has proved his ability, and Tuoshafeng is still under the management of Feng Master Ye."

Of course, this is absolutely impossible.

With the ability of Ye Chen's master and apprentice, after two months, Tuoshafeng must be in Xiao Lingyun's pocket.

"Don't worry, the suzerain, Ye will definitely go all out!"

The suzerain once again solemnly reminded: "Go back and study the jade pendant and dagger carefully. If you don't even qualify for the competition, you will not only have to leave the Beiming Holy Land, but you must also hand in these treasures belonging to the Beiming Holy Land!"

……

After drinking the tea, Ye Chen took the two of them and left the suzerain's room.

He bumped into the well-dressed Xiao Lingyun head-on, holding an ink fan in his hand, and said with a light smile, "Junior Sister, I'm looking forward to seeing you on Tuosha Peak in two months."

It seems that he also believes that with Ye Chen's ability, it is impossible to keep his position as the peak master.

He has cultivated himself for 300 years, and now he is only a celestial being, let alone what disciples he can teach with excellent grades.

And as a young genius of Beiming Holy Land, he will soon replace Ye Chen and become the next owner of Tuosha Peak. After some experience, he will become the suzerain.

Xia Wan'er replied angrily: "Hmph, my master will not let you succeed!"

"Oh." Ruan Xingfei rolled his eyes.

In her heart, Xiao Lingyun was not questioning Ye Chen's teaching ability, but her own strength.

Xiao Lingyun still did not restrain himself, but said without hesitation: "Junior Sister, don't be angry, when I become the Peak Master, I will definitely be able to teach you well."

When he replaces Ye Chen as the peak owner of Tuosha Peak, he will be able to spend more time with Ruan Xingfei.

Just thinking about it makes him happy.

But Ye Chen didn't take Xiao Lingyun's unreasonableness to heart, and said indifferently: "There is no absolute in everything, don't speak too early."

Xiao Lingyun was about to say something more, but Gu Nianxin's voice came from not far away.

"Senior Brother Xiao!"

"Senior Brother Xiao!"

……

Xiao Lingyun's expression changed drastically, as if he had heard some reminder song, he quickly slipped away after rubbing oil on the soles of his feet.

Xiao Lingyun asked the suzerain to give him the position of peak master.Not only can he experience and improve himself to lay the foundation for becoming the suzerain in the future, but he can also get rid of Gu Nianxin and get closer to Ruan Xingfei.

Xia Wan'er murmured; "Strange, why did he run away suddenly..."

Seeing that Xiao Lingyun was about to hide in the side room not far away, Gu Nianxin arrived in time and knocked Xiao Lingyun to the ground with a palm from the air.

It seems that another bloody drama is about to be staged.

Idle is idle, Ye Chen will not give up being a melon eater.

He asked Gu Nianxin: "Oh, the two of you have always had a good relationship, why did you strike at each other when there was a disagreement~"

Gu Nianxin gasped for breath, her forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat.

She directly ignored Ye Chen, walked to Xiao Lingyun's side, pulled him up, and shouted: "Is there something you've been hiding from me lately!"

Xiao Lingyun patted the dust on his body, straightened his robes, and said falteringly: "I...I don't have..."

Gu Nianxin roared angrily: "What did my father tell you last night? You avoided me early this morning!"

"Hey, I... I..."

How could Xiao Lingyun dare to say it, she was afraid that if she said it, Gu Nianxin would ruin her plan.

The suzerain in the house came out because of their noise.

He scolded, "Xin'er, what are you messing with?"

Seeing the suzerain, Gu Nianxin looked aggrieved and asked, "Father, what did you say to Senior Brother Xiao last night? He has been avoiding me today..."

"My little girl is naughty, Feng Master Ye laughed at me," the suzerain immediately noticed Ye Chen who was watching the show, and turned to Gu Nianxin, "You two come with me!"

"Hmph..." Gu Nianxin snorted and entered the room helplessly.
