Zhou Xueyuan was startled, and then he seemed to understand something and frowned: "Could it be that they rejected you, Master?"
He looked around at the elders and mentors of the outer sect of Piaomiao Sect, his eyes full of evil.
"Teacher Zhou, what's your look like?"
"Why are you looking at us like that?"
"Although we don't know the relationship between you and Ye Chen, but he failed the test, how can we allow him to join the Piaomiao Sect?"
The teachers and elders were both aggrieved and surprised.
It's okay to call a loser "Master". Ye Chen was tested just now and has no talent for cultivation at all. He actually wants them to make an exception and accept him as his disciple?
Which branch instructor would be willing to accept this kind of waste?
However, when they heard Zhou Xueyuan's next words, everyone felt that he was hopelessly crazy.
"What are you talking about? You want to take Master Ye into your sect?"
Zhou Xueyuan laughed angrily, "Do you know who this is? He is a top alchemist whose alchemy skills are far superior to mine. Which one of you is qualified to accept him as your disciple?"
One sentence once again shocked countless people's jaws.
A young man who looks to be less than twenty years old is still superior to Zhou Xueyuan in alchemy skills?
Are you kidding me?
"Cough, cough... Teacher Zhou, did you admit the wrong person?"
A mentor stood up, suppressing a smile and said: "As far as I know, alchemy is also a broad and profound skill. No matter how talented a person is, it is impossible for him to achieve such a high level of achievement at such a young age!"
Someone else echoed: "Yes, Teacher Zhou, you either recognized the wrong person, or you just want to support this person. But if you do this, aren't you afraid of being accused of nepotism?"
"Who is nepotistic?"
Zhou Xueyuan pointed at the man and yelled: "Everything I said is true. If you don't believe it, you can go to Hongyan City and ask President Su Jianning!"
No one spoke.
Zhou Xueyuan said what he said for this reason, so there should be no lies.
After all, there are specialties in the art industry!
It’s not impossible for people from other professions to know nothing about warrior training.
Even if Ye Chen really doesn't have any talent in martial arts, it does not affect his ability to be an extremely skilled alchemist.
"Well, since Ye Chen's alchemy skills have been approved by Teacher Zhou, it's not impossible to let him join our Piaomiao Sect!"
As if he didn't want to make the matter a big deal, one of the elders stepped forward to smooth things over.
As a result, Zhou Xueyuan not only did not agree, but sneered: "What did you say? Let Master Ye join our Piaomiao Sect?"
"What? Isn't Teacher Zhou still dissatisfied?" the elder asked.
"So satisfied!"
Zhou Xueyuan didn't give any face at all, and shouted: "You don't even know who Master Ye is. He is an alchemist whose refining skills are far superior to me. If he can only become a disciple, then who is I?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was instantly dumbfounded.
The elder was also dumbfounded: "What Teacher Zhou meant..."
"I want to hire Master Ye as the outer sect tutor of Piaomiao Sect!" Zhou Xueyuan said word by word.
He would respectfully call Ye Chen "Master". If Ye Chen became someone else's disciple, wouldn't it be a disguised insult to him?
Therefore, even if Ye Chen is allowed to enter the Piaomiao Sect, he must at least be friends with his peers and cannot become a disciple of another branch.
Of course, Ye Chen can also become his disciple.
However, he did not dare to do this.
As the saying goes, there is no age in learning, and those who master first come first. Although Ye Chen is young, his attainments in alchemy are far beyond his reach.
In this situation, the only person who can ask Ye Chen for advice is not qualified to teach Ye Chen at all.
"Did I hear you correctly? You want to hire Ye Chen as the outer sect tutor of Piaomiao Sect?"
"Isn't he here to participate in the selection of outer disciples?"
"He failed the most basic talent test. He is not even qualified to become an outer disciple of Piaomiao Sect, but now he is being hired as a mentor? Is there any mistake?"
"If he can become the outer sect mentor of Piaomiao Sect, then who do we who pass the test count?"
"This is too ridiculous, I don't accept it!"
"And he is still so young. He may look a few years younger than me. How can he be a master of Piao Miao Sect?"
Many people said they couldn't accept it.
Especially Ximen Xiao, who was not far away, was so angry that he almost went crazy.
"No, no, no, this old guy Zhou Xueyuan must be crazy. Even if something went wrong when Ye Chen tested his cultivation talent, it would be good to make an exception and let him join the outer sect of the Piaomiao Sect, but he actually wants to hire him as a mentor?"
When he heard that Ye Chen also wanted to join the Piaomiao Sect, he secretly thought of many ways to take revenge. He even thought of launching a life-and-death challenge to Ye Chen after he recovered from his injuries.
If Ye Chen is directly hired as a mentor, how can he implement these revenge plans?
You must know that any sect attaches great importance to respecting teachers and teachings. Once Ye Chen is hired as a mentor, if he challenges the other party, he will bully his teacher and destroy his ancestors!
"Uh... can this still happen?"
Not to mention other people, Ye Chen himself felt a little surprised.
His original purpose was just to join the Piaomiao Sect.
I never thought that when Zhou Xueyuan came, he would directly hire him as the tutor of the outer sect of Piaomiao Sect!
The contrast between before and after is too great, right?
Just thinking about it, he looked at Nangong Liuli, who was also stunned next to him, "By the way, what are the benefits of becoming a master of Piaomiao Sect?"
He entered the Piaomiao Sect just to gain access to more advanced techniques and combat skills!
If he could achieve the same goal by becoming a teacher, he would be obsessed with being a humble disciple who is limited everywhere because of his illness.
"Do you even need to ask?"
Nangong Liuli smiled bitterly and said: "The outer sect instructor of the Piaomiao Sect not only has access to more advanced martial arts and combat skills, but also has more status, more say, and more generous treatment within the Piaomiao Sect!"
"In this case, I won't be polite!"
Ye Chen took a deep breath and said loudly: "Since Teacher Zhou thinks so highly of this junior, why not be respectful..."
"Wait a minute!"
Just when he was about to agree, a disciple who had just passed the test jumped out first, "If this kid can become the outer sect mentor of Piaomiao Sect, I will be the first to express my dissatisfaction!"
The man's voice fell, and countless echoing voices immediately sounded around him.
"I don't accept it either!"
"He looks younger than me. If he really becomes a mentor, wouldn't he ask me to call someone younger than me my mentor in the future?"
"I can't accept a yellow-haired kid becoming the outer sect tutor of Piaomiao Sect!"
Not to mention those disciples who were dissatisfied, even many Piaomiao Sect elders and mentors present spoke out.
"If you let him serve as a mentor at such a young age, how can you convince the public?"
"Yes, most of us are middle-aged or above. How is it appropriate for such a little kid to serve as a mentor?"
