Chapter 410 - Mass Wedding? No! Mass Apprenticeship (1/2)

One step into the sky.

It was an understatement to describe being able to be the disciple of a head of department as one step into the sky. Such a great thing that countless Sacred Martial Hall martial artists dared not even dream of had actually fallen into the hands of Qin Fen.

“Azia, you are a martial artist who cultivates neo martial art. Why are you fighting with me for no reason? Qin Fen’s cultivation seems to be paleo martial arts.” Ferrero’s eyebrows that were like two golden swords were twitching constantly. They carried an intention that he would make a move if they were to have a disagreement.

“Martial dao is like the sea and stones of mountains that can attack jades. Neo martial arts can allow Qin Fen to widen his horizons.” Sakra looked gloomy and glared back at Ferrero with no intention of backing off. His face also showed a look that said: “try going against me”.

The quiet room that was just in a prevailing mood of harmony had become a brewing storm in a blink of an eye. Two great forces were pressuring one another.

Qin Fen, who was sitting between the two people, helplessly gave a bitter smile, “Two seniors, there is no need to be so anxious. I don’t think I have agreed to worship any one of you as my master…”

…

The aura of power and the noises that were clashing one other disappeared instantly without a trace.

Sakra and Ferrero were both stunned. Four sharp eyes shrouded Qin Fen as they asked at the same time, “What did you say?”

Qin Fen spread his arms out gently, “I don’t think I’ve agreed to be the disciple to either one of you, right? So, there’s no need for both of you to fight and spoil the peace.”

…

The small room went quiet once again. Only the appliances that were burned down by Sakra due to the anger before this occasionally burst out a few dazzling sparks every once in a while.

The two heads of department who didn’t like each other now exchanged glances. They couldn’t believe their ears and wanted to look for evidence that they have heard it wrongly in each other’s eyes.

As the heads of department of Sacred Martial Hall, who wouldn’t sharpen their heads and dive straight in if they were to say that they were recruiting disciples? As for the object of the apprenticeship, would there even be a need to ask if he or she agreed? This question was an extremely stupid question for many people.

However, today…

After Sakra and Ferrero went silent for a few seconds, they remembered one thing. The young man before them was a very strange person. Not only were his strengths and talents out of the ordinary, his way of action was butalso not something anyone could predict.

“Kid, why? Are you sure you really don’t want to?” Ferrero asked enticingly, “Do you think that I am not qualified to be your master? I have checked your information and you never really had a real martial dao master. Your first cultivation should be Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, and your later cultivations should also be very similar to Dragon Elephant Prajna Art. I’m guessing that you must’ve had some interesting encounters, right?”

Qin Fen’s heart shook a little. The metal ball was his biggest secret. He had never told anyone about this, could it be that Sacred Martial Hall had discovered that something was wrong through the previous monitoring device?

“Is it strange?” Ferrero shrugged his shoulders and sat back onto the sofa, “Ever since the martial dao civilization of Atlantis was discovered, relics of the Atlantis branch had also appeared around the world. Some martial dao among them had even been spread out. There’s nothing strange if you had picked up some cheat accidentally.”

Sakra nodded in agreement. There were several martial arts masters in the Federation that didn’t achieve the achievements they had today through the help of the Federation or the Sacred Martial Hall. They were just lucky enough to have had some small interesting encounters and developed into a martial arts master from these encounters.

Qin Fen’s nervous heart once again restored its calmness. The saying: ‘the precious stone lands its innocent possessor in jail’ had been repeated countless times in human history, all was good as long as it wasn’t his secret that had been revealed.

“Kid, you probably still don’t know the benefits of becoming the disciple of a head of department, right?” Ferrero explained with patience, “If you become my disciple, I will let you see anything you like from the Secret Art Pavilion. Even though you still don’t have the qualifications of entering the Secret Art Pavilion directly, this is no different than having the right to enter the Secret Art Pavilion. Besides, as my disciple, you can even get a monthly batch of additional medicines for support.”

“You’ll also have these as my disciple.” Sakra interjected indifferently, “Any disciples of all the heads of department would have these benefits.”

Qin Fen’s calm eyes lit up suddenly, “There are such benefits of being a disciple of a head of department? Does this mean that the benefits would double up if I were to be two heads of department’s disciple at the same time?”

“What?”

Ferrero and Sakra expressed their shock simultaneously and looked at Qin Fen blankly again. This young man didn’t seem to have a problem with having too many masters. But the Sacred Martial Hall head of department’s position was extremely noble, how could they share their disciples with other people?

Ferrero gave two awkward coughs. He sat next to Qin Fen and said with a very serious expression, “Kid, I know your love for martial dao, but you can only choose one master.”

It was a rare occasion that Sakra stood in the same boat as Ferrero, indicating that he also shared the same thoughts silently.

“Is it?”

The light in Qin Fen’s eyes dimmed down instantly. His black eyes evaluated the two Sacred Martial Hall heads of department next to him left and right.

Silence, silence…

There was only silence left in the small room. Ferrero and Sakra stared at Qin Fen nervously, and their hearts were filled with mixed emotions.

On usual days, whenever a head of department of Sacred Martial Hall wanted to recruit a disciple, they would always choose slowly according to their own preferences. Who knew that all of this would be flipped over today? As heads of department of Sacred Martial Hall, a disciple-to-be would actually be the one to pick his own master.

One second, two seconds… ten seconds… thirty seconds…

In just a minute, Ferrero felt that time was as long as the whole world.

The two heads of department looked at each other subconsciously and saw the same thought in each other’s eyes.

So be it if we are to be his masters at the same time! I’m afraid it would be extremely difficult to find such a talented young man in these times!

A wry smile filled both the heads of department’s eyes in an instant. Everyone’s encounters couldn’t be the same, and their final achievements in martial dao would also not be the same.

Ferrero was clear that being able to become Sacred Martial Hall’s head of department also meant that his future martial dao development would already be very slow. It wouldn’t even be strange if he were to stay in this realm forever.

As martial artists who had dedicated their whole life to martial dao, who wouldn’t want to see what exactly lied at the ultimate end of martial dao?

If one knew that this wasn’t something that he or she could accomplish, people would want to pin their wishes onto their descendants.

It was just like a common man who had lived in mediocrity, yet pinned his hopes on his own children to become someone great.

Divine beast martial artist! Sacred Martial Hall had never produced divine beast martial artists! Sakra was very clear that if Qin Fen could maintain his momentum and was lucky enough to survive the incoming martial arts barriers, he would much likely become the next divine beast level martial artist.

Cultivating a divine beast level martial artist was not only the goal and dream of Sacred Martial Hall but also the goal and dream of any martial artist.

“Ai!”

Sakra and Ferrero sighed at the same time. It was probably also not an easy task to want the other party to give up the position of being Qin Fen’s master.

As martial artists, who wouldn’t want their own disciple to become a divine beast martial artist? In that kind of situation, even their masters would gain a high reputation.

“Kid…” Ferrero leaned back against the sofa and said as he patted Qin Fen’s shoulder with one hand, “You won. We agreed. Even if we will be laughed at by the other heads of department, we still agree! We’ll take you as our disciple together, what do you think?”

“This…” Qin Fen raised his hand, scratched his head, and shook his head slightly.

“What do you mean?”

Ferrero, who had just leaned against the sofa sat up straight again and looked at Qin Fen with a puzzled face, “Kid, I’ve already agreed, so why are you going back on your words?”

“Two seniors…” Qin Fen got up, circumvented the coffee table, and looked at the heads of department who were sitting on the sofa with confusion. His expression got a little more serious, “I am extremely flattered to be so valued by both of you. To be honest, I also wish to be both of your disciples immediately.”

Ferrero listened and nodded. It was obviously the correct thing to have such thoughts, so why did he have to shake his head?

“But, I’m not able to do so at the moment.” Qin Fen said immediately as he saw the huge change in both the heads of department’s expression, “That is because I didn’t come to Sacred Martial Hall alone. I still have a group of friends. And because of me, they followed me to the basic type Outer Sacred Martial Hall stubbornly, leaving their possibilities of an even better future.”

Ferrero’s forehead was drenched with cold sweat as he listened. The muscles at the corner of his eyes were twitching slightly as he said in his heart.  Kid, don’t tell me that you want to demand an exorbitant price from Sakra and I to not only recruit you as our disciple but to also recruit your group of friends?

“I really hope to achieve a higher martial dao, but I cannot be so selfish.” Qin Fen said as he bowed gently, “I believe that being able to be a disciple of Sacred Martial Hall’s heads of department is something that all young martial artists in this world are wishing for. I think that my group of friends would also be willing to become disciples to both of you. So, I hope that I can have a few more brethren.”

The small room had fallen silent countless times today.
