Chapter 270 Let’s Become Your Disciple
At this time, Gu Liyue was already chatting with the dean in the main hall.
The dean said with a serious expression: "The three ancestors of Qingxuan Academy want to see you. Would you like to meet them?"
Gu Liyue knew from his expression that he just wanted to inform her that the ancestor wanted to meet. Was it up to her whether to meet or not?
The dean continued, "They just want to learn about the situation in the Cangwu Realm to see if it's suitable for them to go there."
Gu Liyue said, "Okay, I'll go and pay my respects to the ancestor. Let's set the time."
The dean said, "Don't worry, I'll take you there tomorrow at noon."
Gu Liyue nodded and said, "Okay."
The dean looked at Gu Liyue and said, "I think you need an identity in Qingxuan Academy. Otherwise, I don't know how to introduce you to the ancestors, and it will be inconvenient for you to move around the academy."
After the experiences of the past few days, Gu Liyue also felt that it was better to have an identity. Otherwise, he and his companions would not know how to calculate the seniority. In the future, he would have to establish a sect in the Cangwu Realm, so it would be easier to rank the seniority.
"Do you want to accept me as your personal disciple? Isn't it said that the dean never accepts personal disciples?"
"It's not that we don't accept it, but many deans didn't accept it. Over time, the rumor spread that they didn't accept it." The dean looked at her steadily and said, "What do you think?"
He recalled the time when several big men wanted to take Gu Liyue as their personal disciple, and he had prepared many arguments to persuade Gu Liyue.
Unexpectedly, Gu Liyue replied: "Okay!"
The dean was about to say what he had prepared, but he stopped himself in time and looked at Gu Liyue in confusion.
Gu Liyue: "...What's the matter? Isn't this the result you wanted?"
The dean said, “Of course!”
Then he looked at the spiritual tea on the table and said, "Then become my disciple!"
Gu Liyue rolled her eyes inwardly, picked up the spiritual tea, and knelt down: "Master, please accept this cup of tea from your disciple."
The dean laughed, took the spiritual tea and took a sip.
Then a jade token appeared in his hand. This was the token of the direct disciple of the dean of Qingxuan Academy.
Gu Liyue took it and put it away.
The dean raised his hand, and a set of robes appeared in his hand. It looked a bit similar to the student uniforms of Qingyuan Academy, but it looked more advanced. It was royal blue with gold edges and embroidered with dark patterns.
Gu Liyue looked at him and handed it to her and asked, "What is this?"
The dean said, "This is my personal disciple's uniform. I only have one set. I'm giving it to you."
This direct disciple uniform is different from the ordinary disciple uniform. It is a set of robes. Generally, direct disciples will only wear it on important occasions and usually wear their own casual clothes.
Gu Liyue took it, and the dean took out a Qiankun bag and handed it to her.
"This is what I gave you. It contains a body-building method, which is my understanding of body-building. If you want to improve your physical strength, it will help you better survive the thunder tribulation. Take a look at it first, and ask me if you don't understand. There are also some spirit stones in it. I don't know if you have used up your spirit stones, so I will prepare some for you."
She hadn't expected the Master to practice physical training. In her imagination, shouldn't a physical training practitioner be strong, tall, and muscular? The Master didn't look like that at all. He looked more like a gentle and refined man.
The dean looked at her curious eyes and said, "Why? Doesn't your master see that you are practicing physical cultivation? Physical cultivation is actually not directly related to body shape and physique. That's just a misunderstanding of ordinary people. The purpose of physical training is to increase the body's strength, enhance the ability to withstand pressure, and refine the spirit meridians and dantian, making them strong and difficult to damage."
Gu Liyue thought that she was too influenced by the immortal cultivation novels of later generations. So that's how it is. Come to think of it, it makes sense.
"Okay, I will practice hard on my bodybuilding."
The dean was very pleased with her attitude and continued, "The courtyards at Tongtian Peak are also ready. You can go and pick one with your jade token and move in this afternoon. If you need anything, please tell the student on duty."
Gu Liyue immediately bowed as a disciple and said, "Thank you for your concern, Master."
The dean looked at her with a smile and said, "Go and settle down first, and come see me tomorrow morning."
Gu Liyue agreed and turned to leave.
As I walked, I was thinking, how come I just went in once and when I came out I had a new master and had to move house again.
When she arrived at the palace gate, a student on duty was already standing there: "Uncle Master, I will lead you to see your courtyard."
Gu Liyue nodded.
The student said, "My name is Chen Xin. I help the dean with his daily affairs at Tongtian Peak. The dean lives in Qingfeng Courtyard. There are several empty courtyards next to that courtyard. I'll show you around."
Gu Liyue said: "Okay."
She liked quietness and was also worried that she would disturb her master, so she chose a relatively spacious courtyard that was farther away from Qingfeng Courtyard, intending to live there with Aunt Yu and Xuanhuo.
She felt that the spiritual energy there was quite rich. Looking up, she saw a plaque hanging on the gate that read: Yaoyue Courtyard.
Chen Xin looked at her with a hint of surprise, but only glanced at her.
Gu Liyue also muttered to herself: "There's no need to even change the plaque."
Then she went to Lingxiao Peak to inform Aunt Yu and Xuanhuo that they had moved.
Before moving, I went to say goodbye to the Great Elder.
The dean sent a message to the vice-dean and several elders, announcing that he was Gu Liyue's master, and asked them to inform everyone in the academy.
The Great Elder was very surprised to hear the news. Gu Liyue had agreed to live in Lingxiao Peak before, and he thought she would become his disciple. He didn't expect that she would become the dean's disciple.
Thinking back to what happened in the martial arts arena, he wondered: Was it because I cheated Gu Liyue out of her spirit stones that she refused to take me as her master? He could only sigh.
The second elder happened to be refining medicine using the recipe in the medicine book that Gu Liyue gave her. At that time, she thought that Gu Liyue was showing kindness to her and was willing to become her disciple, but she did not expect to receive this news.
The vice-president's thoughts were similar to the second elder's at first, but then he changed his mind and realized that he didn't know what life would be like in the Cangwu Realm in the future. As long as he could study talisman drawing with Gu Liyue, he didn't care about this title.
The other three elders were bystanders who could see things clearly. They knew that the dean had probably intended to take Gu Liyue as his personal disciple from the very beginning!
The students of Qingxuan College were also very emotional because of this news.
Lin Cang was originally considered to be one of the students with good comprehension in this class of Tongming Peak. Although he was not accepted as a direct disciple, he was still one of the best among the direct disciples.
He had always thought that Gu Liyue had not been accepted as a personal disciple by the academy's top management and her status was lower than his.
Although I feel that my alchemy skills are not as good as hers, at least I am better than her in one aspect.
As soon as the news came out, the only advantage he thought he had left was gone, and he was instantly crushed to pieces. The other person was the only direct disciple of the dean, but he was not even a direct disciple.
He felt vomiting blood in his heart at this moment, and felt that the way others looked at him was strange, but in fact, no one meant it that way.
