Chapter 514 (2/2)
Just when he was about to leave, he looked back and added, ”Although you're a special-recruit disciple, I still suggest that you partake in the entrance test. That will benefit you greatly as well.”
He then vanished into thin air.
Xiang Shaoyun inwardly remarked joyfully, It sure is great being a special-recruit disciple. I can even bring my own people in. I reckon Caidie enjoys the same treatment as well.
At that thought, he had the urge to bring Xia Liuhui and Gong Qinyin with him. If they were here, he would have brought them without any hesitation. Xia Liuhui was a brother he trusted; therefore, who would deserve the quota more than him? As for Gong Qinyin, she had great talent with an innate talent in the dao of music. She was most certainly someone with a bright future.
As for Lu Xiaoqing, although she was infatuated with Xiang Shaoyun, her talent was lacking in comparison. If he brought her to the academy, she might fall behind the others. Thus, he had not considered bringing her along.
Liang Zhuangmin, Dong Ziwan, and Hua Honglou were talented individuals, but none of them were by his side right now. Thus, it would seem like his two quotas would go to waste. He suddenly sensed numerous gazes focus on him, and he started feeling somewhat uneasy. He looked around and found that people of all ages were approaching him, looking at him like they were going to eat him up then and there.
Before Du Xuanhao and Han Pojun could get near Xiang Shaoyun, he was already swarmed by the crowd, giving him a fright. He braced himself for a ma.s.sive battle. Contrary to his expectations, instead of attacking, the crowd started talking simultaneously.
”Young master, I am an elder of the Hundred Sand Gang. My young master has decent talent in cultivation, and on behalf of him, I would like to beg that you accept him as your follower.”
”Young Master Xiang, I am from Celestial King Province's Lu Manor. I am not even 30 years old, yet I am already a fifth-stage Skysoar Realm cultivator. I pledge my allegiance to you, young master. I only wish that you can bring me along to the Dragon Phoenix Academy.”
”Young Master Xiang, you are handsome and extraordinary, with outstanding talent in cultivation. I believe you lack a beautiful lover like me. Bring me to the Dragon Phoenix Academy with you, and I will be yours.”
”d.a.m.n it! Why don't you look at yourself in the mirror? Even someone as beautiful as me is only going to offer to be the young master's maidservant. Scram!”
”Young Master Xiang, please accept my young master as your servant. Please. If you agree, we can do anything you want!”
...
Xiang Shaoyun had not expected that all these people were here to beg for the spots he had. It was evident just how many people wished to enter the ancient academies. These people wouldn't be begging him so humbly otherwise.
One ought to know that there were a considerable number of Emperors among these people, begging on behalf of the young of their clans. Numerous beauties were also trying to get a spot through their charm. One could say that the two spots he had were fatally attractive to these people.
Xiang Shaoyun was completely surrounded by people. The Han Clan sisters wore bitter looks on their faces as they witnessed this scene. They wanted to follow him to the Dragon Phoenix Academy as well, but when they saw their compet.i.tors, they lost all confidence. The only advantage they had over all those people was that they had known him for longer.
”Everyone, silence,” said Xiang Shaoyun, unable to take it anymore. Right this moment, someone in the crowd took the chance to launch a sneak attack on him.
