C1198

F * ck, I've already been praised as a rare martial arts genius in the past few hundred years, and then I was taken in as a disciple at a loss. If I were to acknowledge you, a crazy old man, as my master, who would be at a disadvantage with me? Elder Ling's mouth twitched and his eyelids twitched. He immediately rejected the old man's idea of taking him in as a disciple. 1

I just saved your life, so at least you should know how to write the word 'repay'. Yet, in the end, you got Elder Ling's endless glare. Didn't you just say that you wouldn't mention it just now?

Besides, didn't you say that you could borrow a clean set of clothes? It was already considered repaying your kindness. Why did you have to return the favor by accepting another person as your disciple? That's why Elder Ling was unwilling.

Elder Ling was unwilling to do so. The old man insisted on taking him in as a disciple, and in the end, the two of them had a dispute over this matter. The one who got beaten up was called Elder Ling, it was a terrible sight to behold.

"Lad, are you going to acknowledge me as your teacher?" The old man chuckled and asked.

"No …" "Bye, okay?" Elder Ling said with a sad face.

"Sure, as long as you can defeat me, I will acknowledge you as my master. Otherwise, you can either acknowledge me as your master or we can continue fighting." The old man continued to laugh as he spoke.

"May I ask if there is a third option? For example, we can go our separate ways and not interfere in the business." Elder Ling said with a sullen face.

The old man: "No."

Elder Ling: "..."

The old man: "Do you want to kowtow or not?"

Elder Ling: "..."

"Crack!"

"Plop!"

The sound of the elder clenching his fists and Elder Ling's kneeling down sounded at almost the same time. Just like that, the elder laughed, Elder Ling cried, the elder became master, Elder Ling became a disciple.

The form of their apprenticeship was very simple. It was as simple as when Ye Xuan first became Elder Ling's apprentice. The old man also said the same thing as what Elder Ling said to Ye Xuan. He just added one more sentence.

"My name is... Forget it, you don't need to know my name. You only need to know that I am unaffiliated with any sect or have no special rules.

"As for the oath you have to make to acknowledge me as your master, it's fine if you don't want to do it. I believe in you …" "However, you must first swear to forget everything that you saw today. If you really can't forget, I can help you adapt it …"

Only later on did Elder Ling find out why the old man wanted to take him in as a disciple. There was only one reason, and that was because he was afraid that Elder Ling would let him into his' pirate ship 'because of this simple reason.

After the old man accepted Elder Ling as his disciple, he threw three secret manuals to him. These three secret manuals were the three most popular sacred jobs in the continent: alchemist's secret manual, the secret manual for blacksmiths, and the secret manual for Spiritual Array Masters.

After giving these three secret manuals to Elder Ling, the old man had never cared about him at all. At least in terms of learning and training, the old man had never interfered and never guided him. This was also why Elder Ling was right when he said that Ye Xuan was self-taught.

Although the old man did not interfere with Elder Ling's training and learning, it has to be said that the three secret manuals that the old man gave him at that time were the top and most precious secret manuals in the world, not a single one.
