Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 379 - 361 Wind-Fire Academy and Tai’a Academy

Chapter 379: Chapter 361 Wind-Fire Academy and Tai’a Academy

Qin Qing looked at the one-eyed elder before him, whose aura was extremely profound and vigorous, as deep and bottomless as the abyss of the sea.

And now, this elder was inviting Qin Qing to join the Wind-Fire Academy.

As far as Qin Qing was concerned, Tai’a Academy no longer wanted him.

Now with this elder from Wind-Fire Academy appearing and not only inviting him to join Wind-Fire Academy but also promising to save his sister, what reason did Qin Qing have to hesitate?

"Senior, I am willing! As long as my sister can be saved, I am of course willing to join Wind-Fire Academy!" Qin Qing’s voice carried a hint of urgency.

Originally joining Tai’a Academy was to help his sister treat Fire Disease.

The focus was on treating his sister’s Fire Disease, so whether it was joining Tai’a Academy or Wind-Fire Academy didn’t really matter to Qin Qing...

"Good! In that case, take me as your master now, and perform the ritual of apprenticing." The one-eyed elder said again.

Without any hesitation, Qin Qing knelt down before the one-eyed elder and bowed sincerely.

Perform the kneeling apprentice ritual!

"Master above, please accept your disciple Qin Qing’s bow!"

"Good!" A smile appeared on the face of the one-eyed elder as he walked toward Qin Qing and Qin Shuang. He lightly tapped the spot between Qin Shuang’s eyebrows, and immediately, the burning heat enveloping her body subsided swiftly.

Her skin, once scalding red, returned to its normal color.

"I’ve temporarily suppressed the Fire Disease within her body. There is no concern for your sister’s life for a year!" the one-eyed elder said.

"Thank you, Master!" Qin Qing performed the kneeling apprentice gesture again.

At this moment, Zheng Yuanhai from the side spoke up: "Zhu Jirong, what do you mean by this?"

Once Zheng Yuanhai spoke, the complexions of some disciples around them changed, clearly having heard of the name Zhu Jirong before.

"What do I mean?" Upon hearing this, Zhu Jirong simply smiled indifferently and said, "I just happened to pass by here and saw that this boy named Qin Qing wasn’t bad, so I took to heart the idea of accepting him as a disciple. What, Tai’a Academy doesn’t think much of him and wants to expel him, is there a problem with me, Zhu Jirong, taking him as a disciple?"

"But! This child was originally a disciple of Tai’a Academy!" Zheng Yuanhai said.

"But he’s not anymore!" Zhu Jirong smiled wryly.

"While he was still a disciple of Tai’a Academy, he violated the rules of Tai’a Academy, so I must abolish his cultivation as punishment. If you want to take him as a disciple, please step aside first!"

Zheng Yuanhai took a step forward, and a tremendously powerful aura burst forth from his body instantaneously.

It was the aura of a Martial Saint, as if the entire world would collapse with it.

It was as though, the entire world couldn’t withstand a Martial Saint!

"Scram!"

However, Zhu Jirong just sneered coldly. With a wave of his hand, a more formidable power swept out.

Zheng Yuanhai’s figure was forcefully halted, and as he retreated, rippling waves appeared out of thin air, as if the world had begun to overlap.

"Now, he is my disciple, Zhu Jirong, and no one can touch him!" Zhu Jirong said in an immensely calm tone, yet it conveyed an overbearing sensation.

As if his words were the will of heaven, containing the constitution of heaven, what he said became the law.

Qin Qing’s heart couldn’t help but tremble slightly.

Gazing at the elder standing before him, Zhu Jirong now turned his back to Qin Qing, and this silhouette gave Qin Qing a sense of immense stature.

Zheng Yuanhai, pushed back, couldn’t help but reveal a grave look in his eyes. He had long known that Zhu Jirong, the Palace Master of Wind-Fire Academy, was extremely powerful and had witnessed Zhu Jirong take action. Now it seemed Zhu Jirong’s power might have grown even stronger than before!

For a moment, Zheng Yuanhai stood rooted to the spot, not daring to advance.

The Elders Jin Ying from Tai’a Academy around them did not dare to speak either.

Zhu Jirong alone had oppressed so many Martial Saints that they did not even dare to say an extra word.

"Zhu Jirong, I trust you’ve been well."

At this moment, space rippled, and circles of spatial patterns, much like ripples on water, appeared out of thin air.

Then, a figure emerged as if rising from the water, appearing out of nowhere!

Qin Qing was even more astonished. Was this the capability of a Martial Saint?

It was rumored that a Martial Saint could tear through space and travel thousands of miles in a single thought, vanishing without a trace.

It seemed the rumors were true.

"Zhao Wuji!"

Zhu Jirong’s gaze landed on the figure that had appeared suddenly.

The figure was clothed in a white Daoist robe with an elegant aura and profound eyes.

"Greetings to the Palace Master!"

The Elders Jin Ying around, as well as Zheng Yuanhai, bowed in salutation at the sight of this person.

Zhao Wuji!

The current Palace Master of Tai’a Academy and the most powerful individual of Tai’a Academy as well.

Zhao Wuji had a smile on his face, and after giving a slight nod toward Zhu Jirong, he turned his gaze toward Qin Qing: "Are you called Qin Qing? Did you reach the Nine Level of the Wind-Fire Tower?"

"Yes," Qin Qing answered.

"You have quite the talent!" Zhao Wuji’s gaze swept over Qin Qing, as if seeing through him completely in that instant.

"Originally, you were a disciple of my Tai’a Academy. I hope you will stay. I can take you as my Direct Disciple and establish you as the Saint Heir of the academy, the candidate for the next leader. How about it?"

The crowd was shocked when Zhao Wuji made this offer.

The Palace Master of Tai’a Academy, Zhao Wuji, was actually considering taking Qin Qing as his True Disciple.

This was not just any Elder Jin Ying’s True Disciple but the True Disciple of the Palace Master, and Zhao Wuji was even promising to establish Qin Qing as the academy’s Saint Heir!

However, Qin Qing merely smiled wryly.

"I’m sorry. I have already sworn allegiance to a master. This is my master, and as for Tai’a Academy, let’s forget about it," Qin Qing said coldly.

Even now, with Zhao Wuji appearing personally to retain Qin Qing, there was no intention in Qin Qing’s mind to stay.

Because Zhao Wuji had shown no sincerity whatsoever.

He had no idea that Qin Qing had only undergone the True Disciple assessment in hopes that once he became a True Disciple, he could get the Pharmacist from Tai’a Academy to treat his sister’s illness.

Furthermore, Zhao Wuji’s invitation to Qin Qing was only about promising benefits and telling him about the advantages he could gain. However, as for the wrongs committed by Zheng Yuanhai, Zhao Wuji did not mention a single word!

Thus, this only strengthened Qin Qing’s resolve to leave.

"Palace Master!" Zheng Yuanhai’s eyebrows furrowed slightly; now he understood that his actions had caused discontent in Zhao Wuji. Still, he spoke up, "Since this child has no intention of staying at our Tai’a Academy, there’s no need to force him to stay. What our Tai’a Academy lacks the least is talent. This child is complacent, and he looks down upon everything else. I think it’s better if he does not stay."

Zhao Wuji frowned slightly, glancing at Zheng Yuanhai. He was about to say something but then hesitated. Looking back at Qin Qing, he said, "Qin Qing, I’m somewhat aware of the previous incident. Perhaps there was a mistake on the part of my Tai’a Academy, but after all, you are a disciple of Tai’a Academy. Moreover, you should be clear about the disparity in conditions between Tai’a Academy and Wind-Fire Academy.

At my Tai’a Academy, I can give you the best cultivation conditions. Whatever Wind-Fire Academy can offer you, I can offer you as well. And what we can give you, Wind-Fire Academy cannot..."
