Chapter 578 - 70: The Discerning Third Elder
Chapter 578 - 70: The Discerning Third Elder
Seeing the old wizard with the white beard coming out, everyone stopped the clamor, but still stared at Yun Sheng with unfriendly faces.
"Thank you, Third Elder," even when facing the Third Elder, Feng Tian showed little respect, simply thanking him faintly before preparing to leave.
Feng Tian was also filled with confusion, he couldn’t understand, what qualifications did such an ordinary-looking trainee have to be ranked alongside him.
He, Feng Tian, was a unique existence.
"Yun Sheng, would you like to be my apprentice?"
Feng Tian paused in his steps.
As soon as the Third Elder spoke, not only Yun Sheng, but also Gu Feng and others were stunned.
Did they hear it wrong?
The Third Elder actually wanted to take Yun Sheng as his apprentice?
This was simply the most shocking news they had heard this year.
What’s even more jaw-dropping came afterwards; Yun Sheng actually shook his head, "Sorry, I already have a tutor, and my tutor is a Dark Gold Master."
Shocked!
To actually refuse the Third Elder, that’s the Third Elder!
The Third Elder was no ordinary person; he was the only Magic Potion Master in the Mainland Elite Camp, a super master who had once created Divine Magic Potions.
In the Mainland Elite Camp, unlike other places in Wuji Continent, the status of a Magic Pharmacist was very high, especially unattainable for the trainees of the Mainland Magic Elite Camp.
The title of Dark Gold, of course, was known to all the trainees of the Mainland Magic Elite Camp, but how could she, merely a Basic-level Tutor, compare with the Third Elder, one of the Five Elders of the Elite Camp?
This person must be a fool! Not only is he a waste, but also a fool!
All the people, from initial envy to mockery, their gaze towards Yun Sheng was filled with as much ridicule as could be.
The Third Elder was not angry, however; he chuckled and said, "Yun Sheng, you can go back and ask the Dark Gold, I’m only offering to teach you knowledge of Magic Potions, not including Magic."
The Third Elder was well aware that with Yun Sheng possessing Dark Magic Power, the most suitable to instruct her was still the Dark Gold Master.
What really interested him about Yun Sheng was her special Elf Water Power and Karma Fire Magic Power.
"Thank you, Third Elder, I will pass your words on to the Dark Gold Master. Whether or not to let you be my tutor, I still need to think it over," Yun Sheng nodded, knowing the Third Elder had no ill intentions.
Her words made the other trainees even more frustrated.
Others begged to apprentice under the Third Elder to no avail, yet she actually said she needed to think it over!
Had seen arrogance, but never such arrogance.
"Yun Sheng, do you know a mage named Lan, who is the Great Elder’s disciple? She mentioned you to the Elder Council some time ago," the Third Elder’s statement stirred another major uproar.
Sky Mage Lan, she is the top on the Yinghua List, known not only for her beauty, but her own strength is strong too, being one of the top ten powerful trainees in the Mainland Magic Elite Camp’s Magic Power List.
"Yes, we have met once," Yun Sheng nodded her head.
When mentioning Lan, Yun Sheng’s tone was casual, without flattery or awe.
After speaking, Yun Sheng paid no heed to the surprised glances of the other trainees, and left with her companions.
"Indeed, it’s her," the Third Elder stroked his beard and nodded, only to realize that most of his beard had already been burned off.
"Third Elder, what is so special about this new student?" It was the Third Elder who rated Yun Sheng as a One-star Star Mark, while the other two assessors were still somewhat baffled.
Just now, they all agreed that Feng Tian had the greatest potential and was rightfully a Star Marked Student.
As for Donghuang Lingling being ranked 150th, that was also reasonable. Students able to comprehend High-level Magic under urgent circumstances naturally have a lot of room for development.
It was only Yun Sheng, especially in the end, that the Third Elder, disregarding the others’ opinions, insisted on rating her as a Star Marked Student, which puzzled the two tutors.
Three-element Magicians are indeed rare, but in the history of the Mainland Magic Elite Camp, there have been a few, and even if this student was special, having Karmic Fire and Elf Power, she is still just a Magic Master.
A thirteen-year-old Magic Master is quite ordinary within the Mainland Elite Camp.
Some multi-element Mage trainees might even be stronger than Yun Sheng, but none of them qualified as Star Marked Students.
"Do you remember the message Lan brought back earlier? During her training outside, she came across a Magic Medicine called Moon God’s Praise — a High-grade Magic Medicine that can completely change a person’s Magic Physique without any side effects," the Third Elder said slowly.
Upon mentioning this, the two tutors also recollected.
This news had caused quite a stir in the Mainland Magic Elite Camp at the time.
But the commotion quickly subsided.
Because no one, including the Third Elder himself, was able to replicate even a drop of Moon God’s Praise following the method Lan brought back.
"You mean, that female Mage, she might?" The two Magic Tutors suddenly realized the Third Elder’s intention.
"Right, let’s wait a few more years and see. If that little girl’s cultivation can break through to a Sky Mage, I would choose her as my successor, heh heh," the Third Elder said with an unfathomably deep expression.
The one to inherit his mantle can only be one person. Whether Yun Sheng can become his successor still needs time to prove.
Gu Feng and Qi originally wanted to celebrate for Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling, but now neither of them were in the mood to celebrate, only wishing to quickly return to their thatched cottage to inform the Dark Gold Master of this news.
Passing the potential test also meant that Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling could start the next phase of their training.
The Dark Gold Master wasn’t there, but Ke Ling was already waiting, and as soon as she saw them, Ke Ling immediately showed a concerned expression.
"How did the assessments go today, junior sisters?"
Donghuang Lingling sighed, "I made it into the top three hundred... but... "
Ke Ling, hearing this, secretly rejoiced inside, could it be Yun Sheng didn’t make it?
"Yun Sheng... ah," Donghuang Lingling continued sighing, "she became a Star Marked Student!"
"It’s okay, just work harder next time..." Ke Ling was pleased inside but tried to offer consolation outwardly. Hearing Donghuang Lingling’s next words, she was completely taken aback.
Star Marked Student!
"How is that possible, she’s only a Magic Master, how could she become a Star Marked Student," Ke Ling’s tone involuntarily became tense.
"Why couldn’t it be possible? Yun Sheng is a genius. Even the Third Elder spoke up, wanting to take her as his disciple, but Yun Sheng didn’t agree, saying she wanted to come back and consult the Dark Gold Master," Donghuang Lingling sincerely felt happy for Yun Sheng, but was somewhat dissatisfied with the strange attitude of today’s big sister.
Yun Sheng became a Star Marked Student, she, as a fellow disciple of the Dark Gold Master, should also be happy.
The Third Elder wanted to take Yun Sheng as a disciple?
After hearing this news, Ke Ling’s whole person was not well.
~ Ye Huli blushed shyly as it passed by, saying there’s plenty of time in the future, why the rush, my little Wildcat is too small, not good to pounce on, awoo~
