You don't deserve it!
Hearing Lu Lan's words, Peng Gu was stunned for a moment, and then he became furious.
He believed that apologizing to Lu Lan in public was sincere.
But Lu Lan not only did not appreciate it, but also still said that he was not worthy of being his master!
As the elder of the medicine hall, has Peng Gu ever been humiliated like this in public?
He suddenly became furious and said angrily:
"How dare you! You're a disciple of the academy, how dare you speak to this elder like that?!"
Lu Lan was not frightened by his angry look, and continued to say with a smile:
"Why? Do you think you are qualified to be my master?"
"Let's not talk about the fact that you couldn't see the problem with the Yijin Pill before."
"At my age, can you refine a second-level pill?"
Lu Lan's simple question left Peng Gu speechless.
At his age, it is difficult for him to refine even a first-grade intermediate-quality elixir, so how could he possibly refine a second-grade elixir?
"Asshole! How dare you contradict the elders? That's incredibly rude! I'm going to teach you a lesson today!"
Peng Gu was so angry that he suddenly raised his right hand and was about to slap Lu Lan in the face!
Lu Lan's expression changed and he was about to hide backwards.
However, Peng Gu's aura locked him down, preventing him from moving easily!
"This old guy is so shameless!" Lu Lan's heart sank.
Just when Peng Gu's big hand was about to hit Lu Lan's face, the hand suddenly stopped falling.
Peng Gu turned around and saw a tall woman in a white dress grabbing his arm.
On her beautiful face with delicate features, there is a beauty mole next to her right eye.
She is Chu Yun, the youngest female elder among the elders of the medicine hall.
At this moment, Chu Yun looked cold and indifferent.
"Elder Peng, isn't it a bit too much to slap a new disciple in public?"
Peng Gu's expression froze, and then he said in a stiff tone:
"This elder is teaching him a lesson! Let him know what it means to respect teachers!"
"But the academy has a clear rule that elders cannot beat disciples without a valid reason!"
Chu Yun refused to give in and said coldly, "If Elder Peng still refuses to stop, I will report this matter to the Discipline Hall and let the Discipline Elders make the final decision!"
Peng Gu's face changed drastically.
The Discipline Elder is responsible for maintaining order in the academy and punishing those who break the rules. He has a very high status.
If the elders of discipline knew about this, he would definitely be severely punished!
Peng Gu gritted his teeth, glared at Lu Lan fiercely, then put down his right hand and returned to his seat with a gloomy expression.
Lu Lan glanced at Peng Gu with the same gloomy expression, then turned to look at Chu Yun with a grateful smile on his face.
"Thank you, Elder Chu, for helping me out just now. I am deeply grateful."
Lu Lan bowed to Chu Yun gratefully.
He had heard of Chu Yun's reputation.
The youngest elder in the academy's pharmacy and one of the most beautiful women in Baitao City.
At the same time, she is also the sister of the head of the Chu family in Baitao City.
He didn't expect that she would actually help him out.
"Nothing, I just did what I should do as an elder."
Facing Lu Lan, Chu Yun no longer had the cold expression she had before, and a faint smile appeared on her face.
Then she returned to her seat.
Wu Peng, who was standing next to Lu Lan, was a little disappointed.
It would have been better if Peng Gu could have landed that slap.
That way, he could see Lu Lan's swollen face, and he would feel so relieved.
But it doesn't matter.
He will have a "big gift" for Lu Lan later!
This happened suddenly, and the atmosphere in the medicine hall competition field became a little cold and quiet.
The elder presiding over the ceremony quickly announced the start of the ceremony.
As the first newcomer in the medicine hall, Lu Lan has the first right to choose his master.
Apart from Peng Gu, several other elders at the elders' table who believed that they were not much weaker than him spoke up and recommended themselves to Lu Lan.
These elders all offered generous conditions, hoping to accept Lu Lan.
There were even elders who were willing to lend Lu Lan their "Black Jade Cauldron", which they never left behind, so that he could practice alchemy.
This shows how great Lu Lan's "attraction" is.
Looking at these elders who were trying hard to recommend him, Lu Lan thanked them politely, and then walked in front of Chu Yun under everyone's gaze.
He clasped his hands and bowed respectfully to Chu Yun.
"Disciple Lu Lan, I wish to become Elder Chu's disciple!"
The elders who were trying hard to recommend themselves suddenly shut their mouths.
The look in their eyes when they looked at Chu Yun was full of envy and even a little jealousy.
Chu Yun was also very surprised.
She quickly opened her mouth and said:
"Lu Lan, if you choose to become my disciple because of what happened just now, then I appreciate your kindness."
"But with your demonstrated talent for alchemy, it would be best if you chose a master who is as experienced as Elder Wang and the others."
"Only if they teach you personally will you be able to walk steadily and without mistakes in the art of alchemy."
"Compared to them, I still lack a lot of experience."
"So, you'd better think about it carefully again."
No one present had expected that when a genius in alchemy like Lu Lan offered to become his disciple, Chu Yun did not happily accept him. Instead, he thought that he lacked experience and was not qualified to teach Lu Lan.
However, Lu Lan smiled slightly and said:
"Elder Chu, you are worrying too much. I sincerely want to take you as my master."
