Chapter 48: Promotion
The Seventh Elder turned and stared at Ye Fei. After a brief moment of eye contact, a bright smile appeared on her delicate face. She reached out and cupped Ye Fei's cheek.
Ye Fei was stunned for a moment.
Before she could react, the Seventh Elder leaned in and nuzzled her face: "The reason is simple: because I admire you, I accepted this kid's request!"
Ye Fei's face was both amused and shrewd.
How could the Seventh Elder show such a girlish side?
"Moreover, even if Xiao Li hadn't made this request to me, I've already decided to recruit you to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion." The Seventh Elder smiled broadly. "I've carefully observed your performance in the arena. You have a ruthlessness and decisiveness that other students don't possess. Your performance against Xin Feifei was also to my liking, so I want to train you."
Xiao Li?
Li Yuan remained silent; this form of address was truly a bit...
Ye Fei was speechless: "Just because of that?"
The Seventh Elder proudly raised his chin: "Yes! That's exactly why!"
Ye Fei remained silent. Seventh Elder, you are becoming arrogant and unscrupulous... Is this something to be said?
"Although I cannot teach you the techniques of a dark-elemental spirit master, with your dual spiritual roots and innate full spiritual power, becoming a strong person is not difficult." The Seventh Elder patted Ye Fei's head, his eyes filled with hope for the young girl before him: "I don't want this pearl to be tarnished, do you understand?"
Ye Fei understood that the Seventh Elder and the First Elder shared the same idea about her—they wanted to devote all their efforts to nurturing her.
"It's a pity that Rong Yu was snatched away by the Grand Elder while I was in seclusion. Now that you have appeared, I must strike first before the other elders know about your talent!"
The Seventh Elder spoke with a hint of gritted teeth, indicating that she still harbored resentment towards the First Elder for competing with her for the Phoenix Jade.
Without hesitation, Ye Fei bowed and said, "Ye Fei thanks Seventh Elder for his promotion. I will certainly not let you and the First Elder down."
The Seventh Elder gritted his teeth. Good heavens, it turns out that the First Elder had also been eyeing Ye Fei for a long time!
Even so, she has now reached a consensus with Ye Fei.
"Why bring up that old guy? He's not allowed to be mentioned in my Heavenly Mystery Pavilion!"
The Seventh Elder pinched Ye Fei's cheek in annoyance, then turned his gaze to Li Yuan, who had been silent all along: "Little Li, come with me."
Li Yuan pursed his lips and replied, "Okay."
The two left one after the other. Ye Fei simply found a seat and took out the fifth-grade Spirit Gathering Pill from her pocket.
Elixirs are divided into nine grades, with the higher the grade, the more precious they are.
These fifth-grade Spirit Gathering Pills have some faint golden patterns on them. Although they are not very obvious, they are definitely there. These are the pill patterns.
Generally speaking, pills of grade five or higher will have pill patterns.
The patterns on the pill spread outwards from the inside. The higher the grade of the pill, the clearer the patterns will be. This is the best way to verify whether a pill has high value.
However, Ye Fei couldn't understand why Li wouldn't use such a valuable item as the Spirit Gathering Pill himself, but instead gave it to her.
Ye Fei had a sudden realization. The two of them had parted on bad terms at noon. Could it be that he gave her the pill as an apology?
"No, I've only known him for a short time. Surely he doesn't need a fifth-grade pill to appease me?"
Ye Fei muttered to herself and sighed inwardly.
Not long after, Li Yuan returned, carrying several books on spirit master techniques.
