Lin Zixuan tilted her head slightly to look at Yun Lintian. For some reason, Yun Lintian felt as if he was being seen through by her. He was a bit perplexed as Lin Zixuan was clearly blind, and she did not have the slightest profound energy; naturally, she didn't even possess Spiritual Sense… Did she have other abilities?
Lin Zixuan and Yun Lintian did not utter any word and kept staring at each other like that for a few minutes before the former asked. "Why do you want to join my hall?"
Yun Lintian didn't hide anything as he answered. "My purpose in joining the academy is to get the right to enter the Frozen Moon Mythical Realm, and I can get it from the Moonlight Hall without much effort compared to the other halls."
"Are you saying my Moonlight Hall is the weakest?" Lin Zixuan asked plainly.
"Obviously." Yun Lintian replied firmly. He turned his head to Jiang Yingyue and said further. "Although Big Sister Yingyue has been regarded as the number one student in the academy, the overall strength of the Moonlight Hall is actually nothing in front of the other halls."
As his voice fell, the atmosphere in the bamboo hut suddenly became weirdly silent. Even though Yun Lintian's statement sounded insulting, everything was the truth. However, He spoke so straightforward like this; it was a bit awkward to hear.
Lin Zixuan's expression did not change in the slightest. She remained silent for a moment and said. "As far as I know, you are quite deceptive. I am curious what makes you honest all of a sudden?"
Yun Lintian was immediately choked while Han Bingling covered her mouth and giggled amusingly, making her huge bosom tremble along.
Yun Lintian coughed slightly and replied. "I think Senior must misunderstand me. I never intended to deceive anyone. It's all because of the situation forcing me to do so."
Lin Zixuan did not press on this matter further. "Very well. I have no objection if you want to enter my hall. However, are you willing to be my disciple?"
This time it was Yun Lintian's turn to go silent. Truthfully, he didn't think anyone deserved to be his master. After all, he didn't need any profound art from others. Just all the books in the Library alone were enough for him to reach the peak in the world.
Furthermore, becoming Lin Zixuan's disciple was equivalent to tying his fate to her. If anything happened to her, Yun Lintian couldn't get rid of the relationship and had to help her with all he had. Wasn't this too troublesome?
Han Bingling naturally understood Yun Lintian's thoughts. With his talent as well as the 'hidden master' behind him, she didn't think Lin Zixuan was qualified to be his master. It wasn't that she was looking down on Lin Zixuan, but it was a fact.
Surprisingly, before Han Bingling could say anything, Yun Lintian spoke first. "Alright. I am willing."
His answer shocked everyone present. They thought Yun Lintian would definitely refuse.
The reason why Yun Lintian accepted the proposal was that he suddenly thought of the future. Although it was still unclear why Lin Zixuan was a special existence in the academy, he believed her status could provide him some convenience in the near future. The fact that no one dared to covet the Moonlight Peak had already proven this.
Moreover, Yun Lintian had become a 'celebrity' among the students now. He had reckoned many people would seek him trouble. Some of them were naturally unconvinced and came to ask him for a duel. Being Lin Zixuan's master meant he would become Jiang Yingyue's junior brother. He could use her reputation to brush off these troublesome people away.
In short, he believed he would gain more benefit than losing it by becoming Lin Zixuan's disciple.
Lin Zixuan 'looked' at Yun Lintian deeply and beckoned him. "Very well. You can serve the tea."
According to the custom of this world, when a person worshiped another person as a master, he would have to serve tea for the latter. Yun Lintian also knew this and unhurriedly prepared the best tea he had in his interspatial ring.
Soon, the tea fragrance immediately filled the small bamboo hut. Han Bingling and Jian Yingyue were surprised upon smelling this scent. They had clearly recognized the tea leaves Yun Lintian used as it was the lowest grade Spirit Tea. However, the fact that it could produce such a strong fragrance confused them slightly.
After pouring the tea of a prepared jade cup, Yun Lintian beckoned Linlin to stay on the side first before bringing the cup to Lin Zixuan.
With a thud, Yun Lintian knelt down in front of her and offered the teacup. "Please accept this, Master."
Rumble—
As Lin Zixuan was about to receive the teacup, suddenly a thunder roaring reverberated throughout the divine city. The sky immediately filled with black clouds, accompanied by a powerful gust of wind. Lightning sparks kept flashing from time to time, looking like thousands of lightning pythons squirming between the group of black clouds… If one looked closely, this phenomenon was occurring everywhere, not just above the divine city, but the entire Azure World!
Suddenly, Lin Zixuan's body trembled violently as though she had been hit by a lightning strike. Her face became rigid, and her hand that was about to touch the teacup was shaking nonstop.
"Ugh!" In the next moment, Lin Zixuan spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and slumped down from the bamboo chair.
"Master!" Jiang Yingyue exclaimed and managed to catch Lin Zixuan timely before the latter hit the floor. When she looked at her master, she was stunned for a moment as she saw Lin Zixuan's face was pale beyond words, and there was even a trace of fear within her lifeless eyes. This was the first time she saw Lin Zixuan become like this.
Han Bingling flashed and reappeared beside Lin Zixuan. She hurriedly used her Spiritual Sense to check on the latter and heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing there was no major problem on her body.
"What's going on?" Han Bingling's brows knitted together as she turned toward Yun Lintian.
