Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 478: Chapter 10: Fourth Brother! I can only “do my best”_1

…

Exactly during Qian Xuefu’s time of lamenting the unfairness of life, another two or three girls ran over to flirt with Wang Shou Ye, but they were all also politely rejected by him.

Why is the gap between people so vast?

Moaning in despair, Qian Xuefu was also trying to rally his spirits. Remember, Qian Xuefu, you do have outstanding alchemy skills. When you finally become a Great Alchemist in the future, the same “troubles” will surely come your way too.

With this thought, his competitive spirit was suddenly rekindled, and he began to look forward to his future life anew.

At this moment.

There was a sudden commotion in the crowd, and exclamations arose: “Master Dongfang is here… Wow, he certainly lives up to be the pillar of the young generation in the alchemy world. He is so handsome!”

“What does being handsome have to do with being a pillar of alchemy? That being said, Dongfang Yuxi’s strength is indeed formidable. He is said to be the hot favourite to win this time.”

“That’s right, he possesses the Lihuo Bloodline with a dual high segment rank. If not for inheriting and supporting the declining Tianjin Port Dongfang Clan, he would have already become a core disciple at the Academic Palace. With his top-notch accomplishment in alchemy, he could even become a direct disciple.”

“Alas~ What a pity~ The Dongfang Clan used to be a well-established Celestial-being Prominent Family. Now they’re barely able to maintain their Celestial-being status. Master Dongfang has to mass produce pills to support the family’s expenses. Ah~ He has sacrificed so much for the family…”

With all these discussions, many people’s attention was drawn over.

Even Wang Shouye could not help but cast a curious glance over.

As expected, from the direction of the entrance, a young man was slowly walking in.

This man was dressed in white, with a handsome face. He indeed had the appearance of a refined young gentleman.

However, even though he was handsome, his face was emotionless, and his aura was aloof and cold, as if someone owed him ten thousand pieces of Qian Gold.

Even so, there were still many girls around him screaming and lost in fascination.

Wherever he went, the crowd quickly parted, making way for him.

“Brother Qian, is this Dongfang Yuxi’s alchemy technique really that powerful?” Wang Shouye asked curiously.

Changning City is quite remote, and doesn’t get news as quickly as County Town. Plus, he always concentrates on his alchemy and doesn’t care about other matters, so he really has never heard of Dongfang Yuxi’s fame.

“Hmph, he’s just a direct descendant from a declining 7th-rank Aristocratic Family. He enters so grandiosely, people who don’t know any better might think he’s from a Fifth Grade Prominent Family’s main lineage.” Qian Xuefu snorted coldly. His tone was full of jealousy. “However, when it comes to talent in cultivation and alchemy, he does have some. He’s about as good as me.”

“Is he really that powerful? This Master Dan Ding’s disciple recruitment event really attracts a lot of geniuses.” Wang Shouye couldn’t help but be amazed, and at the same time, his expression became somewhat desolate. “This time, I really have seen what it means to say, ‘there are always more talented people out there’.”

“Brother Wang, don’t think too much. There are all sorts of people among the registrants this time, and there are at least a thousand of them, but Master Danding only chooses three in the end.” Qian Xuefu said, comforting him by patting his shoulder, “Think about it, apart from your good looks, which of your family, background, and alchemy skills could make it into the top three? Moreover, I’ve already secured a place. That Dongfang Yuxi might also take a spot…Just be content to come and see the world, to gain some experience.”

As soon as he talked about this, Qian Xuefu was suddenly filled with a sense of superiority. @@novelbin@@

“Ah, I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint my fourth brother this time.” Wang Shouye was filled with bitterness.

He was still too young after all. He hadn’t expected the competition to be a disciple of Master Danding to be so fierce.

With time passing, more and more people poured in, and one after another, popular candidates appeared.

Most of these people were from Rank Six Prominent Families and were the alchemy elites trained by their families since young. Although they were still not very old, they all had outstanding reputations.

Other than these, there was also an independent cultivator who was attracting a lot of attention.

This independent cultivator was named “Si Xinghai”. Once he came in, he didn’t socialize with anyone. He simply leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest, presenting a demeanor that was completely different from the lively atmosphere around him.

However, seeing this person, Qian Xuefu’s expression immediately became serious: “Brother Wang, don’t underestimate this Si Xinghai. Even though he is an independent cultivator, he is very popular among the younger generation and his alchemy skills are extremely remarkable.”

“Maybe in terms of sheer strength, he’s not as good as Dongfang Yuxi, but he comes from an independent cultivator background. You must know, Master Dan Ding himself is from an independent cultivator background and will surely pay special attention to independent cultivators. As long as this young man’s performance isn’t too bad, there’s more than a fifty percent chance that Master Danding will take a liking to him. Before today, I had heard some rumours that Master Danding appreciates him a lot.”

Wang Shouye was left speechless.

Even an independent cultivator is so powerful? Given there are only three spots, how could he, Wang Shouye, fight for them?

Forget it, forget it~ He’s already here, he might as well give it a go~ At least, he needs to live up to the unconditional support that his family has given him over the years.

At this point.

Lei Lingyun had also returned after collecting information.

Her face did not look good either. She pursed her lips slightly and said, “Husband, I didn’t expect there to be so many young experts at this disciple recruitment event of Master Danding. I’m afraid the difficulty of being selected is not low. But Lingyun believes, husband, you are definitely the strongest…”
