If the Xiao Family chose Su Shi, it would mean that Zi Tianhao wouldn't have the chance to join the Xiao Family. It would be the same as destroying the Cold War and his plan. Therefore... He couldn't let this happen. Otherwise... To him, that was a huge problem.1

At this moment, the crowd was in an uproar as they discussed amongst themselves. No one had expected Su Shi to take the initiative to join the Xiao Family. However, Su Shi's choice was reasonable. After all, the Xiao Family was the second largest power in the Magic Martial Realm, second only to the Xuanyuan Family. This time, the Xuanyuan Family didn't send any representatives to participate in this meeting, which meant that they had given up this opportunity. Therefore, the best choice for Su Shi was naturally the Xiao Family.

"Oh, so Su Martial King wants to join our Xiao Family. This is the honor of our Xiao Family." At this moment, Xiao Zhengchun, who was sitting upright, was also very surprised when he heard this. However, he immediately beamed with delight. He never thought that Su Shi would favor their Xiao Family. Furthermore, he wanted to join the Xiao Family without even mentioning his request. However, this made things difficult for him because Su Shi had personally proposed to join the Xiao Family. If he refused, it would naturally attract a lot of gossips. But if he didn't reject the offer, it meant that he had to give up on Zi Tianhao. He would fulfill the wish of the Phoenix Pavilion.

Compared to Zi Tianhao, Su Shi was a senior Royal Grade Martial Master with a bright future ahead of him. The other was a rising star with immeasurable potential, let alone Xiao Zhengchun. If it was any other leader, they would also be in a dilemma. They had no choice.

"It seems like the Xiao Family is really lucky. This Su Martial King actually favored the Xiao Family. However, this is also a good thing. Without the Xiao Family, this Young Master Bai will become the property of the Phoenix Pavilion." Although Psionic Fairy was a little unhappy, from another perspective, Su Shi had helped her a lot. At least, she could easily recruit Zi Tianhao. Furthermore, Su Shi was indeed a talent. Furthermore, he had rich experience in all aspects, but the Phoenix Pavilion didn't lack such a talent. Therefore, compared to Zi Tianhao, who possessed astonishing talent, he was even more attractive.

Of course, it was not only Psionic Fairy who thought this way. Xiao Zhengchun also had the same thought. Therefore, he was hesitant and could not make a decision.

"Patriarch Xiao, do you have any other concerns?" Su Shi saw that Xiao Zhengchun did not make a decision after a long time, so he asked straightforwardly. In fact, he also knew that Xiao Family had already taken a liking to Zi Tianhao. The meeting this time was most likely for Zi Tianhao. However... He didn't care about that. He had to join the Xiao Family. Because the reason why he took the initiative to join the Xiao Family... Actually... He wanted to learn the secret forging skill of the Xiao Family, so that his skill as a blacksmith could be improved to a higher level.

"I won't hide it from Su Martial King. I came here this time for that newly advanced Martial Emperor Bai. Of course, I have always admired Su Martial King. I had hoped that Su Martial King would join the Xiao Family, but there is only one quota. I have to make a decision between you and that newly advanced Martial Emperor Bai. So... This is very difficult! " Xiao Zhengchun was an old fox. He knew in his heart that he would make things difficult for others. It would be better for him to ask the question honestly and not hurt the relationship between them. Secondly, he wanted to see Su Shi's reaction.

"Oh, I have already expected this. However, I have already made up my mind to join the Xiao Family. As long as Patriarch Xiao says a word, I will definitely do my best for the Xiao Family in the future." Su Shi went straight to the point and said. He seemed very persistent.

"What Su Martial King said is really tempting. Of course, the Xiao Family doesn't want to miss out on a genius like Su Martial King. If there is a perfect plan, that would be the best." After saying that, Xiao Zhengchun immediately looked at Ku Wudao, who was one of the higher ups of the Asura Academy. He was also worried that if he couldn't recruit Zi Tianhao in the end, he would miss the chance to recruit Su Shi. That would be too unfair for the Xiao Family. Therefore, he had to find a way to confirm Zi Tianhao's feelings before he appeared. Then, he would make a choice.

"Why don't we invite that Martial Emperor Bai to join us and ask him for his opinion? If he is interested in any family or sect other than the Xiao Family, Patriarch Xiao won't have to make things difficult for him." Su Shi said straightforwardly.

"But I'm afraid this will break the rules." After saying that, Xiao Zhengchun looked at Ku Wudao, because unless Ku Wudao agreed, according to the rules of the fan meeting, as long as he made a decision, it would be Zi Tianhao's turn.

Of course, Ku Wudao knew what Xiao Zhengchun was thinking, so after thinking for a while, he stood up and said, "Since Su Martial King insisted on joining Xiao Family, then let Martial Emperor Bai show his face."

As soon as Ku Wudao said this, the crowd also became restless.

Because logically speaking, Ku Wudao couldn't be so accommodating. After all, if he allowed Zi Tianhao to make an appearance and express his stance, it would also mean that... The Xiao Family would surely get one of Su Shi and Zi Tianhao in the end. No matter what, it wouldn't be a bad deal. It would be unfair to the other families and sects.

However, Ku Wudao also had his own selfish motives. To be more precise, he was gambling because he did not want a talent like Su Shi to be leaked out of the academy. Therefore, Xiao Zhengchun suggested a two-way plan. He had pushed the boat along with the current, and his goal was to hope that Zi Tianhao also wanted to join the Xiao Family. If that was the case, perhaps Su Shi would be squeezed out of the group, and Su Shi would not be able to join the Xiao Family. Then he would definitely not choose any other family or sect, and he would still have to stay in the academy in the end. He would wait for the next meeting.

"Thank you, Dean, for your understanding..." After Xiao Zhengchun heard this, he immediately smiled insidiously. This way, he wouldn't have to make things difficult for him anymore.

"Dean Ku, aren't you being too accommodating?" Psionic Fairy immediately protested when she heard that the situation was not good.

"Su Martial King has made a lot of contributions to the Asura Academy over the past few years. This time, he insisted on joining the Xiao Family. As the dean, I naturally have to support him. Besides... This isn't an excessive request. Could it be that Pavilion Master Feng Ling doesn't have confidence in herself? Do you think Martial Emperor Bai will choose the Xiao Family?" Ku Wudao was obviously goading her.

When Psionic Fairy heard this, her expression naturally didn't look any better. However, if she said anything else, it would also appear that she was too petty. After all, she was the dignified master of Phoenix Pavilion. Therefore... She let out a soft humph and didn't say anything else.

"If no one has any objections, then let Martial Emperor Bai take the stage." Ku Wudao saw that Psionic Fairy did not have any objections and looked around the scene.

However, Ku Wudao knew that other than the Xiao Family and Phoenix Pavilion, even if the other families and sects present had objections... After all, the Asura Academy was the strongest power in the Magic Martial Realm that stood above all the other families and sects. No family or sect would be willing to offend them!

"It seems like Martial Emperor Bai hasn't arrived yet..." At this time, Miss Yuv looked towards the side of the tall platform and saw that Zi Tianhao had yet to appear.

"I'm coming!" But before Miss Yuv could finish speaking, a figure suddenly appeared in the air. In the blink of an eye, it landed beside Miss Yuv and appeared in front of everyone.
