Senior Gu Gu suddenly made this decision because he thought of the benefits of healthy competition, so he decided to accept Ximen Yu and Zhou Shi at the same time, letting them compete with each other and learn from each other's strengths, which is also a good way to provide guidance.
"Yes, Master." Ximen Yu and Zhou Shi responded one after another, and their uneasy moods temporarily stabilized. However, when they thought that thirty years later, the final candidate would be decided, there was still a tight string in their hearts.
"Master, what about Qingyi?" Ximen Yu asked. Since coming to the God Realm, he has spent the longest time with Zheng Qingyi. It has been at least thirty years, so he suddenly has to separate from Zheng Qingyi.
, Ximenyu felt very reluctant to give up.
"I have to say I'm sorry, but in my heart, Qingyi is also one of Lao Chan's disciples." The old senior said.
"It's okay, thank you, senior." Zheng Qingyi said with a smile. Although she was reluctant to leave, there was no such thing as a feast that lasted forever. She couldn't stay with Ximen Yu all the time, so Zheng Qingyi was happy to see it.
"Then I'm leaving." Zheng Qingyi looked at Ximen Yu affectionately. Although she was very reluctant to leave, she thought that Ximen Yu could help Ximen Yu quickly improve his realm and skills by following the old senior, so she felt for Ximen Yu again.
Happy.
"Where are you going?" Ximenyu asked.
"I don't know, maybe I'm looking for a place to retreat, maybe I'm wandering around, no matter what, thirty years later, I will return here and wait for your good news." Zheng Qingyi said with a chuckle.
"If you don't have anywhere to go, you might as well find Xiaojing or go back to the Imperial Academy to work as an official."
"Well, let me think about it carefully. You don't have to worry about me and just practice well on your own." Zheng Qingyi warned.
"good."
Ximenyu watched Zheng Qingyi leave, and Zheng Qingyi also walked out of the valley with complicated emotions, and finally disappeared from everyone's eyes.
"Brother Ximen, you are really happy. You are accompanied by a beautiful woman and know each other." Zhou Shi said with envy.
Although Zhou Shi is not inferior to anyone in terms of cultivation, he has an ordinary appearance and a short and thin figure. Therefore, he has not met a beautiful woman like Zheng Qingyi to accompany him for so long, so he is very envious of Ximen Yu in his heart.
"With Brother Zhou's talent and strength, given time, what kind of beauty will he not get? Speaking of which, Brother Zhou is young, has such advanced cultivation, and has such outstanding talent. This is what others cannot envy." Ximen Yu
responded.
"Brother Ximen is joking, I feel ashamed compared to you." Zhou Shi said with a smile.
"Brother Zhou is really too humble." Ximen Yu said with cupped hands.
"Haha, you are all outstanding, otherwise you wouldn't have become a disciple of the old age, but your battle lines will be lengthened next. No matter what method you use, as long as you don't touch the bottom line, whoever breaks through to the realm of the Great Emperor first will be the winner.
I am a close disciple of my master."
"Yes, Master." Ximen Yu and Zhou Shi responded at the same time.
"Zhou Shi, your current state is the Seven Powers of the Chinese Emperor, which is far behind Ximen Yu's Three Powers of God. However, the reason why I give you another chance is because of your talent in cultivation. I hope you will continue to work hard." Senior Gu encouraged.
road.
"Yes, Master." Zhou Shi nodded.
"Ximen Yu, the same goes for you. Although your current level is higher than Zhou Shi's, if you don't pay attention, you will be caught up by him, so you can't take it lightly. What I want to see as my teacher is that you can all try your best."
"Yes, Master." Ximenyu responded. Ximenyu naturally understood this. Zhou Shi's cultivation speed was so fast that Ximenyu was actually very surprised. That's why Ximenyu secretly decided that he would never let Zhou Shi catch up with him again.
.
"Well, very good, our test will continue." The old senior said, and then continued to follow his instructions, guiding Ximen Yu and Zhou Shi to strengthen their spells and methods to improve their realm.
...
Thirty years later.
"Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, you have been following me for more than forty years. In the past thirty years, your performance has been very outstanding, especially Zhou Shi. You really did not disappoint me. In a short time,
In just thirty years, you have broken through from the Seven Powers of the Emperor to the Ten Powers of God. Unfortunately, Ximenyu's performance is also good, so as early as a year ago, Ximenyu has already entered the realm of the Great Emperor, so as agreed
, General Ximen Yu is my master’s last disciple.” The old senior explained, feeling very emotional at the same time.
"Master, can you let me and Ximen Yu become your closed disciples together? In that case, whether it is Ximen Yu or me, there will definitely be someone who can fulfill your dream. Wouldn't it be better to have double insurance?"
Zhou Shi pleaded, following the seniors in the valley, he had indeed benefited a lot. In just over forty years, he had broken through from the Nine Powers of the Emperor to the Ten Powers of the God. If it were an ordinary cultivator, there would not be thousands of them.
It would definitely not be possible for tens of thousands of years.
"Yes, Master, Brother Zhou and I have been together for more than forty years, and we know each other very well. Although my current level is higher than that of Brother Zhou, it is difficult to guarantee that I will be able to meet your requirements, Master," Ximen Yu agreed,
The reason why Ximen Yu is willing to stand up and speak for Zhou Shi is mainly because he admires Zhou Shi's talent for cultivation, and Zhou Shi is also a good person. After decades of getting along, Ximen Yu and Zhou Shi have become like-minded friends.
Zhou Shi didn't expect that at this critical moment, Ximen Yu would stand up and speak for him, so he was very moved in his heart and cast a grateful look at Ximen Yu.
"Alas, Zhou Shi, although I want to accept you as a closed disciple as a teacher, I have no choice. There can only be one closed disciple, and even if I accept you more, I won't be able to take you with me when the time comes.
Talent Peak and Dicai Peak." Senior Gu said helplessly.
"Why is this?" Zhou Shi asked puzzledly, isn't the master the Ten Powers Saint Emperor of Dicai Peak? It is not difficult to bring one more person.
"Well, the Peak Master has given orders first, and it's not good for me as a teacher to disobey them." Senior Gu Gu explained that if possible, Senior Gu Gu would have thought of accepting Zhou Shi as a closed disciple, but it was a pity that if he wanted to help Ximen
When Yu ascends to the realm of God Emperor, he must rely on the unique resources on the Talent Peak and even the Earth Talent Peak. In that case, he will naturally be subject to the orders of the Peak Master.
"Okay, disciple understands." Zhou Shi said helplessly. Since the master can't control it, there is nothing to say.
"Zhou Shi, you have to believe in yourself. Even if you don't have a teacher to guide you, I believe that you will work harder and catch up."
"Thank you Master, I will definitely live up to your high expectations." Zhou Shi nodded in response.
"Well, that's good." Senior Gu looked at Zhou Shi and felt very uncomfortable in his heart. A disciple with such excellent qualifications is really rare.
Senior Gu Gu felt that Zhou Shi was a bit unlucky, otherwise the position of closed disciple would have been his.
