I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 1157: Mu Shi: Double Standard Appears!

Editor: Atlas Studios

Ai Xue’s voice sounded at an untimely time.

Ye Qiubai’s brows also sank slightly as he looked at Ai Xue on the platform.

Ai Xue also raised her chin and looked at Ye Qiubai without showing any weakness.

“This method seems a little inappropriate, right?” Ye Qiubai said calmly.

Ai Xue smiled disdainfully. “Inappropriate? What’s inappropriate about it? Master takes in disciples, and disciples acknowledge Master. This is a two-way choice. How can you force someone to acknowledge you as their master?”

“Moreover, Master will choose someone with good talent to be his disciple. Then, I have the right to choose a stronger and more suitable disciple.”

...
There was nothing wrong with what Ai Xue said.

However, this was indeed a little disgusting.

She did not think of a fair and just competition to nurture disciples at all. Instead, she wanted to resolve the problem at the root!

Ye Qiubai nodded. “You’re right.”

Then, she looked down at Mu Shi and smiled. “Then, what’s your choice?”

Mu Shi smiled foolishly and scratched his head. He looked at Ai Xue and said from afar, “I’m sorry, Immortal Master. I’ve already joined Immortal Master Ye’s sect. If I change my mind now, my father will smash my head with a stick.”

Mu Shi subconsciously covered his head as he spoke.

It seemed like she had been beaten up a lot…

Ai Xue looked at Mu Shi coldly. Even though Mu Shi was a little afraid, he avoided her gaze. His eyes widened and he looked at Ai Xue with trembling eyelids when he saw Ye Qiubai’s encouraging gaze!

Ai Xue did not deliberately reveal her pressure, but after looking at him for a long time, it still made Mu Shi, who was an ordinary person, feel as if his eyes were burning!

At this moment, Ye Qiubai stood in front of Mu Shi and looked at Ai Xue. “Isn’t it ungentlemanly to treat an ordinary child like this?”

Hearing this, Ai Xue snorted. “In that case, I want to see what’s so outstanding about this disciple of yours!”

With that, she ignored him and continued to take in disciples on the platform.

After half a day, the “farce” on the platform finally ended.

In the end, Ai Xue took in four disciples!

On the other side, Hong Ying, Ning Chenxin, and the others also met up with Ye Qiubai.

The result was a little surprising.

Mu Wan’er’s face was filled with displeasure. She stomped her feet and said angrily, “I originally received a disciple who was compatible with the Dao of alchemy, but that Ai Xue actually snatched her away!”

Mu Fusheng smiled. “How did she snatch it away?”

Among everyone present, only Mu Wan’er’s disciple was snatched away in public.

Mu Wan’er said indignantly, “It’s all because alchemy doesn’t seem to be of much use to her. It’s not as powerful as the feeling of being surrounded by flames like Ai Xue. Then, she was kidnapped!”

Jiang Qingluan also wiped her sweat and said, “My side was almost snatched away too. It was only because I revealed a little strength that I stabilized myself. Otherwise, I wouldn’t even have the chance to participate in this test.”

Hong Ying smiled and said, “Since she can be kidnapped, it means that she doesn’t have this blessing and isn’t worthy of being your disciple. In a sense, this is a good thing.”

If one’s will was not firm, it was a huge taboo to switch sides!

If he accepted such a person as his disciple, no matter how powerful he was in the future, there was a chance that he would harm his master or even his sect.

However, in this test, it could not be considered a true disciple. It was just a year of teaching.

That was why Ai Xue did not care so much.

To her, the disciples she accepted were just her pawns. After this ended, they would no longer have anything to do with her.

“But what should we do now?” Mu Wan’er said with a long face, “If we don’t accept disciples, won’t we fail the test just like that?”

Mu Fusheng held back his laughter. “It’s fine. Anyway, we have so many people here and we’ve taken in so many disciples. It’s enough.”

Mu Wan’er glared at Mu Fusheng and said, “What do you know?! Even if I can’t occupy the stone house in the end, I still want to experience what it feels like to teach disciples!”

Fine, this was Mu Wan’er’s true goal.

Hong Ying couldn’t help but laugh. “In that case, find another one. There will be someone suitable.”

Mu Wan’er said helplessly, “But there are too few people with alchemy aptitude!”

Alchemists were the same as array masters and talisman masters. They needed special talent to walk a path.

It could be said that these three types were fewer than the number of sword cultivators!

Moreover, this was a group of ordinary mortals who had never cultivated or even understood… It was extremely difficult to find another person with alchemy aptitude!

Mu Wan’er waved her hand and said, “Forget it, forget it. I’ll go look again.”

With that, Mu Wan’er strolled around the village.

Ye Qiubai and the others still needed to test the disciples they had just accepted and began to search for a place.

When the villagers who were not chosen saw this scene, they could only look at them enviously and continue to pick up tools like hoes to work.

…

At this moment, in the mountain, Ye Qiubai looked at Mu Shi in front of him and threw a wooden sword at him.

Mu Shi hurriedly took it and looked at Ye Qiubai blankly.

Ye Qiubai said, “You can use this wooden sword to practice your swordsmanship these days.”

Mu Shi was slightly stunned. Then, he looked at the wooden sword and said, “Immortal… Master, are you only practicing with the wooden sword?”

Hearing this, Ye Qiubai smiled and said, “Listen carefully. What I’m about to say is one of the most basic and important points of a sword cultivator.”

“As a sword cultivator, as long as you reach the realm of the Sword Dao, be it a wooden sword or an iron sword, a leaf, a flower, or a tree branch, everything in the world can become the sword in your hand. For example…”

Ye Qiubai bent down slightly and picked up a slender branch from the ground.

The branches were extremely thin, as if they could be broken by the wind.

However, Ye Qiubai swung the tree branch at a huge rock in front of him!

The slender tree branch struck the huge rock and in an instant, the huge rock was split into two!

Under Mu Shi’s stunned gaze, the huge rock fell to both sides, and the cross-section was as smooth as a mirror!

After being stunned for a few minutes, Mu Shi reacted and immediately said to Ye Qiubai, “I understand, Master!”

“Alright.” Ye Qiubai nodded and said, “Your talent is alright. As for whether you can become a sword cultivator or not, it still depends on your luck.”

“I definitely won’t disappoint Master!” Mu Shi waved the wooden sword in his hand and said fiercely, “I’ll definitely make that Niu Zhong regret changing sides!”

It was unknown if it was on purpose or if she really felt that the other party was suitable, but Ai Xue really took Niu Zhong in as her disciple.

Ye Qiubai scolded jokingly, “Sword cultivators must not compare!”

Mu Shi: “Oh… I understand.”

“But sometimes, we still need to prove our strength and talent. This is not wrong.”

Mu Shi: “…”

What was the saying?

Double standard?
