Chapter 280: Chapter 44: Tricking Master! I’m a Professional (Big Chapter of 6500 Words)
...
Wang Zongsheng hastily shrank his neck and awkwardly chuckled a few times to his fellow disciples around him: "Hehe~ Mistaken identity, mistaken identity."
Meanwhile, he was groaning endlessly in his heart.
Fourth Uncle, oh Fourth Uncle, do you have to put me in this spot? I’ve just joined the lineage of the Profound Ice Hall, and you come knocking to challenge us. How am I supposed to get by in the future?
Luckily, everyone’s attention wasn’t on Wang Zongsheng, and for the moment, he managed to muddle through.
In the sky, Changchun Ascendant stroked his beard, finding Wang Shouzhe more pleasing the more he looked at him: "Binglan Junior Sister, what do you think of this new disciple I’ve taken in?"
His tone was filled with undisguised pride.
Binglan Ascendant’s gaze was as cold as ice: "He doesn’t look bad, and at a young age, he’s already reached the Spirit Platform Realm, far better than you back in the day. But I’m not sure how much real skill he actually has. However, if you’re showing off so, this kid must have some ability. I’ll be keeping a close eye."
"Haha~ You’ll see, Binglan Junior Sister," Changchun Ascendant said with a hint of pride, "I think he’ll surely give Junior Sister a surprise today."
He knew that his Junior Sister Binglan had always been drawn to looks, and the core disciples and direct disciples she took in were all very good-looking.
Binglan Ascendant sipped her spirit tea and didn’t want to deal with him any longer.
She then turned her gaze to Faang You’an and said, "Yoou’an, make some arrangements."
"Yes, Master."
Feng You’an responded respectfully, then scanned the disciples of the Profound Ice Hall, his voice gentle as he said, "Who is responsible for recruiting new disciples this time? Are there any outstanding prospects?"
Immediately, Zhou Kangde stepped forward, his voice slightly excited as he said, "Reporting to Senior Brother Yoou’an, I recruited the new disciples this time. We recruited a total of fourteen new disciples, all of whom have experienced a First-Layer bloodline awakening, and their talents have reached Middle Grade. Among them is one whose talent has reached Middle Grade A with a Profound Ice Bloodline. Yunhao Junior Brother, come out and greet Senior Brother Yoou’an."
Soon, a young man about twenty years old, dressed in a dark-patterned Black Tortoise Martial Attire, and carrying a dignified and handsome presence, walked out with a steady demeanor and said loudly, "I am Jiang Yunhao, greeting the two Ascendants and fellow Senior Brothers."
This young man had an extraordinary presence.
Faced with such a grand scene, he showed no trace of fear, indicating that his family background was likely not ordinary.
A Middle Grade A talent is already a rare genius, even more so with a Profound Ice Bloodline.
Even in the Profound Ice Hall, such a level of disciple is very rare. Back in the day, when Ancestor Longyan first entered the Profound Ice Hall, she was merely a Middle Grade C with a Primordial Water Bloodline.
Later, before she advanced to the Spirit Platform Realm, she underwent a bloodline transformation through Basic Bloodline Improvement Liquid to achieve Middle Grade A with a Profound Ice Bloodline.
Currently, the renowned Jii Mingyu, the pillar of the younger generation in the Profound Ice Hall, is also a Middle Grade A with a Profound Ice Bloodline.
As a result, the high-ranking members of the Profound Ice Hall regarded Jiang Yunhao with increased seriousness.
If this young man does not fall short and continues to practice diligently, he should be on the same level as Jii Mingyu in the future. With proper cultivation, achieving the Celestial Human Realm shouldn’t be out of reach.
Such individuals might only emerge once every forty or fifty years.
Binglan Ascendant’s gaze softened with a touch of comfort.
The Profound Ice Hall was quite fortunate this time.
The only problem is, this young man is just about twenty years old, and his cultivation is merely at the Ninth-Layer Middle Stage of the Qi Refining Realm.
As for that boy named Wang Shouzhe, his age is clearly several years older, and he has already reached the Early Stage of the Spirit Platform Realm, meaning Jiang Yunhao is likely far from being a match.
Instantly, under the veil, Binglan Ascendant’s jade-like lips moved slightly.
Direct Disciple Faang You’an immediately understood and elegantly smiled, "Junior Brother Yunhao is indeed extraordinary. In a couple of days, I will invite you for tea."
Faang You’an then added, "Today, Changchun Valley is visiting our Profound Ice Hall for a visit. As hosts, we should naturally offer them a warm welcome. Who among the outstanding disciples is willing to step forward and entertain the juniors from Changchun Valley?"
His implication, of course, was that Yunhao Junior Brother might not be a match and shouldn’t embarrass himself by stepping forward.
However, before any of the outstanding disciples could speak, Jiang Yunhao’s handsome face changed expression.
He stepped forward and said, "Senior Brother Yoou’an, I am willing to take on the challenge."
This was a great opportunity to shine in front of the two Ascendants and the surrounding Senior Brothers, one he didn’t want to miss.
"This..."
Faang You’an’s brow furrowed.
Jiang Yunhao added, "Please rest assured, Senior Brother. Since childhood, I’ve diligently trained and also had my own fortuitous encounters. I’ve even once challenged the Spirit Platform Realm across different levels without defeat. Even if I’m no match for the older Senior Brother from Changchun Valley, I certainly won’t bring shame."
Seeing his confident demeanor, Faang You’an considered for a moment and then nodded, "In that case, Yunhao Junior Brother, go ahead and learn from the expertise of the Senior Brother from Changchun Valley. Don’t fear losing, after all, age is on his side."
"Yes, Senior Brother."
Jiang Yunhao’s spirit heightened as he was the first to leap onto the arena, giving Wang Shouzhe a respectful bow: "I am Jiang Yunhao, please teach me, Senior Brother."
Wang Shouzhe looked speechless.
Originally, he wanted to finish this match quickly. He and Changchun Ascendant had already agreed to just one bout.
Facing a little Celestial Pride six or seven years younger, how could he muster the enthusiasm?
Just as he was about to decline, suddenly, a powerful spiritual sense enveloped him.
He heard Changchun Ascendant’s voice echoing in his ears: "Kid, just participate in an extra match, it would let your Master enjoy himself a little longer."
