Chapter 464: Divine Spirit Sect in Danger
Elder Shu Huai's face was filled with anger, his beard trembling slightly with his excitement, and he shouted loudly: "Don't go too far, do you understand the principle of first come first served?"
The sound echoed at the entrance of the Nebula Hall like a huge bell, attracting people around to lean in to watch the show.
An Yuanxin raised her chin nonchalantly and said in a cold tone: "I don't understand."
The crowd around was instantly attracted by the quarrel, and their eyes were cast on them like spotlights.
Gu Li and her friends therefore became the focus of everyone's discussion, and whispers were heard among the crowd.
Gu Li looked at the tense situation, feeling somewhat helpless, and said softly, "Why don't you guys just stop arguing? We'll go back first."
It's a bit embarrassing for them to quarrel here under the gaze of so many people.
Elder Shuhuai snorted coldly, feeling extremely annoyed.
He quickly formed seals with his hands, and the spiritual energy in his body surged, transforming into an invisible force that swept up Gu Li and the others and rushed away into the distance.
Elder Chiyan saw this and a trace of anger flashed across his face. He shouted, "That's not a martial ethics!"
Before he finished speaking, spiritual power exploded under his feet and he chased after him like a flaming meteor.
An Yuanxin and Fang Qingshui looked at each other, their eyes full of tacit understanding.
They activated their spiritual power at the same time, flashed by, and joined the pursuit.
The remaining elders who were assisting with admissions and the numerous candidates who had registered for the exam looked at each other, their faces filled with shock and confusion.
They never imagined that an ordinary recruitment fair would turn into a competition to recruit students.
Besides shock, I felt more envy.
Su Yiyun looked at Elder Shu Huai who was tying them up, and couldn't help but ask: "What are you doing? Are you kidnapping me?"
Elder Shu Huai roared as he sped away, "Shut up first. Wait until I get rid of the three behind you."
At this moment, he only wanted to get rid of the pursuers behind him and recruit these talented disciples.
Gu Li was carried by the spiritual power, his body swaying in the air, his mouth twitching slightly, and he said helplessly: "We will meet in the future, it's useless for you to run with us."
Besides, she and her companions already had a master and did not want to take someone else as their master.
They originally just wanted to enter the inner sect and improve their own practice, but unexpectedly they were regarded as the perfect candidates to be taught by the emperor.
Elder Shu Huai disagreed and said firmly: "It's okay. Once you become my disciples, it will be useless for them to rob you."
In his opinion, as long as these children became his disciples, there would be no changes.
When Gu Li heard this, he quickly said, "Thank you for your kindness, senior, but I don't want to be your disciple." His voice was crisp and firm, and it was clearly heard by Elder Shu Huai in the wind.
Elder Shu Huai stopped suddenly and withdrew the spiritual power in his hand instantly.
Gu Li and his companions were caught off guard and fell straight to the ground like kites with broken strings, grimacing in pain.
At this time, An Yuanxin and the other two who were chasing them closely also caught up and quickly surrounded them.
Fang Qingshui was full of dissatisfaction and asked, "You always take people and run away. Is that fun?"
Elder Shu Huai did not respond to Fang Qingshui's words, but stared at Gu Li intently, as if he wanted to see through her, and asked word by word: "What did you say?"
Gu Li rubbed his sore butt and repeated firmly, "We have a master, and we won't become his disciple again."
An Yuanxin heard this and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes: "You have a master?"
Gu Li nodded affirmatively: "Yes."
Elder Shu Huai looked at Mu Yunxi and the others and asked, "You have it too?"
Mu Yunxi also nodded seriously: "We all have the same master."
Elder Chiyan was unwilling to give up and advised, "You can have many masters."
Gu Li answered without hesitation: "We will only have one master."
Even though their master has passed away for many years, they will always remember his kindness in their hearts.
If it weren’t for the master’s inheritance, their path of cultivation would not have been so smooth.
What's more, they are also carrying most of the inherited skills of the Divine Spirit Sect, and the Nebula Palace has nothing unique to teach them.
Elder Shu Huai was filled with resentment and asked, "Who is your master?"
He just couldn't believe that, apart from the Palace Master, there was someone more powerful than himself in this southern continent who could make six four-element spirit masters willingly become his disciples.
Feng Wuhen's heart moved, and he suddenly said: "Master is waiting for us in the Northern Continent."
Hearing this, everyone turned their eyes to him. Although Gu Li and the others were puzzled as to why Feng Wuhen said that, they were very tactful and did not speak.
Elder Chiyan asked anxiously, "Northern Continent! Which force are you from?"
Feng Wuhen looked calm, and said calmly, "We can't tell you this."
An Yuanxin's face was full of doubts. She fixed her eyes on Feng Wuhen and asked, "Then why did you come to participate in the assessment of the Nebula Hall? Since you have a master and are from the Northern Continent, you shouldn't get involved in the cultivation forces of our Southern Continent."
Feng Wuhen looked calm and explained calmly, "Our master sent us to the southern continent to train us and let us return by our own efforts."
After hearing this, they did not doubt it. After all, there were still many people from the Northern Continent in the Southern Continent.
It’s just that these few people…it’s a pity.
Fang Qingshui frowned, thinking about something. He looked at the people around him, then at An Yuanxin, and whispered, "Should we take them to see the Palace Master about the matter in the Northern Continent?"
Elder Shu Huai still did not give up. He stared at Feng Wuhen, his eyes seemed to be spitting fire. He was unwilling to confirm again: "Are you really from the Northern Continent?"
Feng Wuhen was not afraid of Elder Shu Huai's gaze at all. He nodded firmly and said in a decisive tone, "Yes."
This short word, like a heavy hammer, completely shattered Elder Shuhuai's fantasy of taking them in as disciples.
"Damn it, all the good seedlings have been poached!" Elder Shuhuai cursed in a low voice, his face full of disappointment and unwillingness.
An Yuanxin's eyes flashed with a complicated expression. She swept her gaze over the faces of Gu Li and the others, and asked slowly, "How long have you not been back to the Northern Continent?"
Gu Li suddenly became alert, frowned slightly, and asked back: "Why are you asking this?"
An Yuanxin sighed softly, a worried look on her face, and said, "Something happened in the Northern Continent. I hope your master is from the Divine Spirit Sect?"
Hearing the words "something happened in the Northern Continent" and "the Divine Spirit Sect", Gu Li and the others were shocked as if they were hit by a heavy hammer.
They looked at each other, with a hint of panic in their eyes, but years of experience allowed them to calm down quickly, and there was no sign of abnormality on their faces.
Gu Li tried to make his voice sound calm: "What happened?"
