This was the first time Mu Feng wanted to join a certain sect, so naturally he was still a little hesitant.
But think about it, as the strongest person in the Xuanji Kingdom, Master has enough strength and prestige, and maybe he can be his teacher.
So he walked to the portrait and knelt down directly.
"Mu Feng, from now on, you will be the eighth disciple of the Chess Academy.
The teacher had a total of seven disciples before, besides me, Huang Longshi, Shi Xiaofu, Liu Yong and Chi Jin, there were two others."
"They are your fifth senior sister Xia Ying and sixth senior sister Wu Feihua. They have all gone down the mountain to complete the tasks left by their teacher. You should not be able to see them for a long time."
"Now, let me ask you, are you willing to join the Chess Academy?"
Bamboo Fish stood there with a serious look on his face.
Huang Longshi and others standing next to him also had solemn expressions. Even if the Master was not around, they did not dare to slack off at all.
"I do."
Mu Feng said, but he always felt a little weird. This scene didn't look like apprenticeship, but more like a wedding... "Give tea to the teacher."
Bamboo Fish continued.
Liu Yong on the side came forward, poured tea into the cup, and handed it to Mu Feng.
Mu Feng held the tea cup and handed it to the bamboo fish.
Zhuyu took the tea cup on behalf of the Master, put it on the table, and continued to ask: "Now, you are the Master's disciple.
There is only one rule in the chess academy, and that is not to do anything harmful to nature, otherwise Master will show no mercy."
"Actually, Chi Jin was almost expelled from the chess academy before. If we hadn't stopped him, you might have been the seventh child."
Mu Feng nodded slowly and said, "I understand."
"Okay, junior brother, get up quickly."
Zhuyu smiled and stepped forward and helped Mu Feng up.
The apprenticeship ceremony was finally completed, and Mu Feng finally became a member of the Chess Academy.
At this time, Mu Feng looked at the portrait, only to find that the master in the portrait seemed to be blinking at him! He was extremely shocked, and he quickly looked carefully, but he couldn't see it anymore, which made him think that he was dazzled.
Already.
Huang Longshi stepped forward at this moment, put away the portrait of the Master, and put it back into the wooden box.
Shi Xiaofu and the others all had smiles on their faces, and even Huang Longshi, who didn't even show a smile, laughed happily at this time.
There is another disciple in the chess academy, which is a big event for the Xuanji Kingdom.
After all, the master refuses to accept disciples easily. The last time he accepted a disciple was a hundred years ago.
Such a long time is enough for an ordinary sect to recruit disciples ten times.
"By the way," Mu Feng suddenly remembered something and asked, "Senior brothers, I want to know why the teacher accepted me as his disciple?
What are the criteria for accepting disciples in the chess academy?"
When Zhuyu and others heard this question, they immediately laughed. From their smiles, Mu Feng seemed to have guessed something.
"Actually, the teacher told us before that his criteria for accepting disciples are as long as they are pleasing to the eye."
"Does it look pleasing to the eye?
Is that the reason?”
Mu Feng was immediately shocked.
"Yes, Master said that he doesn't like other people, but he likes us, so he accepted us as his disciples.
I think my junior brother is also very pleasing to the teacher."
Zhuyu said with a serious face.
Mu Feng was really shocked. He thought that the master had a keen eye for recognizing talents, but he didn't expect that it was for such an unreliable reason. It was too casual.
"By the way, little junior brother, your cultivation will be taught by me for the time being.
The teacher does not stipulate what sacred mental skills we must practice. No matter what it is, the teacher can teach it, so you can continue to practice your previous mental skills."
"At the same time, there are various sacred arts and secrets in the library, which the teacher has found from various places. You can choose and practice at will, but remember to bite off more than you can chew."
Mu Feng frowned again. No matter which sect you are in, the sacred art of mind is very important. After all, it is the foundation for the strength of a sect.
If you want to obtain it, you need contribution, status, etc.
But in the Chess Courtyard, he felt like he was at a street stall. He could browse and read whatever he wanted, but the key point was that he didn't have to pay for it.
What kind of place did he join in a daze?
"Junior brother doesn't have a place to live yet. We will help you build a place. You can live there first. If you want to leave for something, just say a word."
Zhuyu said calmly.
Mu Feng couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you afraid that I will run away?"
Hearing this question, everyone laughed.
Liu Yong said with a smile on his face: "Junior brother, your question is really unique. Others want to join the teacher but can't, but you want to escape?
It’s really different.”
At this moment, Shi Xiaofu suddenly raised one leg and pointed at the bamboo forest with his fingers together: "I'm going to build a residence!"
After saying that, he walked towards a bamboo forest.
"I'm here to help you!"
Liu Yong said quickly and chased after him.
Huang Longshi smiled and said nothing, and he and Zhuyu followed suit.
Mu Feng walked at the back of them and saw them holding hatchets in their own hands and cutting down bamboo one after another in the bamboo forest.
They don't look like masters of reincarnation, more like farmers.
Things that can be accomplished in an instant must be chopped off one by one.
The key point is that they are still enjoying it, talking and laughing.
Even Chi Jin came to help not long after, holding two hatchets in his hands and throwing one to Mu Feng seemingly casually.
Mu Feng noticed the difference between this group of people. To be precise, it should be the difference in Master's teachings at that time.
He saw that these people rarely used their Holy Yuan, but relied solely on their strength to chop bamboo and do things.
Zhuyu seemed to be aware of Mu Feng's doubts and said with a smile: "Master taught us not to take our own cultivation too seriously, as haste makes waste.
Only by not using the Holy Yuan can we better experience the true meaning of life. This is called returning to nature."
Mu Feng was thoughtful, stepped forward with a hatchet, and also chopped bamboo.
Just relying on his physical strength, he could easily cut the bamboo with one knife, but he hadn't felt this way for a long time.
The group of people worked very hard, and then carried the bamboos to an open space, and started building a bamboo house next to the house next to it.
It wasn't until the evening that the group finally built a bamboo house, which looked more exquisite than the rooms next to it. It seemed to be for Mu Feng's care.
Beds, tables, stools, etc. were made of bamboo in the room, and bamboo fish also brought bedding.
Mu Feng looked at the room and realized that this might be the place where he would live for a long time to come.
He didn't know why, but he felt like he was at home here.
"In order to celebrate our junior brother joining our chess academy, we must entertain him well tonight.
Third child, you go get some food, fourth child makes a fire, and I'll fetch water!"
