But only Da Chun himself knew how unwilling he truly was.
So he secretly practiced his fists day after day, saving every penny to work odd jobs, humbly exchanging his energy stone quota for others.
It's because deep down he still longs for it.
I long for the day when the clouds will part and the light will shine through.
Even just a tiny glimmer of light would be enough...
Now, almost two years have passed.
Finally, someone brought light to this bottomless quagmire.
Finally, someone brushed away the filth on themselves and told the world that they were not trash, but a treasure!
Others discarded me like worn-out shoes, but now someone picks me up like a precious gem.
At that moment, the numb and hardened shell of my heart was shattered.
A wave of sorrow washed over me.
"Teacher Ye... I'm sorry, I... *sob*..."
A suppressed sob escaped from Wang Dachun's throat.
A burly man was sobbing so hard he couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Ye Ran looked at the honest-looking child.
She didn't do anything, just quietly watched Wang Dachun choke up.
A man doesn't easily shed tears.
But it only occurred at two different times, and it wasn't shameful at all.
One is the death of a close relative,
The other is that after hardship comes happiness...
Just as Ye Ran was silently keeping Wang Dachun company, the system's voice suddenly rang out.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have successfully completed the task of mentoring a student. The reward for this mentorship is being distributed.]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have obtained one Bronze-level lottery ticket.]
[Ding, a high degree of respect for the host has been detected in the student being taught. Would you like to bind them as a personal disciple?]

Perhaps detecting the questions in Ye Ran's mind, the system automatically provided an explanation.
[The host will automatically receive a reward equal to 10% of the cultivation progress of their personal disciple each day.]
[Furthermore, if a personally instructed disciple makes a significant breakthrough, the host will receive a corresponding reward.]
After hearing the introduction, Ye Ran mentally nodded in agreement.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have gained a personal disciple!]
moment,
Ye Ran felt a strange connection with Wang Dachun.
His own aura had become much more solid.
There are faint signs of a breakthrough to the Silver rank.
This should be a boost from Wang Dachun's cultivation progress.
[Ding, the host has completed the achievement task: Recruit a personal disciple (1/1). This lottery ticket will now undergo a special upgrade.]
[Ding! This lottery ticket has been upgraded to a colored lottery ticket, which can be used to draw a special colored treasure chest. Do you want to open it?]
Ye Ran was pleasantly surprised.
I never imagined that I would inspire Wang Dachun.
Not only did they gain an A-level disciple, but they also completed a hidden quest!
"Activate!" Ye Ran silently made the choice in his mind.
[Ding! Opening a special colored treasure chest.]
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a legendary physique: the Innate Dao Body]
