Since they were new sisters, and since they were on the same side, Wang Xinyan obviously could not just stand by and watch. Even if it was purely for the sake of Lin Yi, she had to take good care of Huang Xiaotao. The best way was to get Huang Xiaotao to become a disciple of the Divine Nun of the East Sea as well. That way, the two of them would be fellow disciples, and they could face anything together.
Moreover, the Divine Nun of the East Sea only had one direct disciple. She would protect her no matter what. If Huang Xiaotao joined, she would probably not suffer any grievances.
The Divine Nun of the East Sea was already rather tempted, but she was too embarrassed to argue with them since Ling Yuanqing and Wei Hebei had already spoken up. However, she immediately made up her mind after hearing what Wang Xinyan had said.
After all, this was a dual spiritual root of fire and wind, and she was a perfect Golden Core cultivator. Her talent was no less than Wang Xinyan's, and what made it even rarer was that she was a female cultivator. To the Divine Nun of the East Sea who did not have many disciples, she was a disciple delivered to her doorstep by the heavens. Even if she had to throw away her dignity, she would fight for it.
"Oh? Of course. It's rare for you to think like that, Yan 'er. How can I disappoint you? " The Divine Nun of the East Sea had always doted on Wang Xinyan. After patting her hand, she immediately stood up and said to Ling Yuanqing and Wei Hebei, "You two men shouldn't fight with me over this disciple. There aren't a lot of female disciples in the first place, and there are even fewer with talent like her. Let her cultivate with me."
"About that …" Ling Yuanqing and Wei Hebei looked at one another and could not help but feel rather embarrassed. The two of them were indeed rather tempted by Huang Xiaotao's great talent, and they had already made up their minds to take Huang Xiaotao in as a disciple. However, since the Divine Nun of the East Sea had spoken up, the two of them were rather embarrassed to keep fighting.
No matter what, the Divine Nun of the East Sea was a woman after all. The two of them had to give in to her. Moreover, the Divine Nun of the East Sea had always only accepted female disciples. None of the male disciples with extraordinary talent she had encountered in the past had ever stepped forward to compete with her. As a matter of fact, even now, the vice principal of the academy, a mighty figure of the founding period, only had a single direct disciple, Wang Xinyan. Both of them should not compete with her, or they would seem far too petty.
Among the three Mountain Opening Stage powerhouses of the Morning Star Academy, putting aside the insignificant Honorary Disciples, just from the number of direct disciples. Although it had been a few years since Wei Hebei had accepted an apprentice, he was still the one with the most number of apprentices. It would be wrong of him to come out and fight for it at this time.
As for Dean Ling Yuanqing, although he had very few direct disciples, he had more than the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea's only child. Furthermore, not only was the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea powerful, she was also one of the vice-deans of the academy. To the Morning Star Academy, she was indispensable. Now that she had spoken, Ling Yuanqing really couldn't go against her wishes.
"Alright then, since Donghai has spoken, she will be under your tutelage. Moreover, among the three of us, you are indeed the most suitable person to teach her. "Ling Yuan Qing made the final decision. Wei Hebei, who was beside him, didn't have any objections.
After a while. After Huang Xiaotao and Lin Yi finished their discussion, they followed Ling Yuanqing's instructions in front of everyone. She directly walked onto the platform and arrived before the three Mountain Opening Stage powerhouses.
However, before she could say anything, the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea directly said to her, "Miss, the two of them are men. Neither of them are suitable to be your master. I've already discussed it with them earlier. In the future, you can become my direct disciple and cultivate with Yan 'er. How about that?"
"Huh?" Huang Xiaotao was taken aback. She could not help but turn to look at Lin Yi below the platform. Lin Yi had just told her to become the Dean Ling Yuanqing's disciple.
Below the platform, Lin Yi saw this and hurriedly nodded at Huang Xiaotao. The reason why he had Huang Xiaotao choose Ling Yuanqing was because he felt he was better than Wei Hebei. However, since the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea also wanted to take Huang Xiaotao as a disciple, the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea was obviously the most suitable. That way, Huang Xiaotao would be able to advance and retreat together with Wang Xinyan as soon as she entered.
"Yes. Disciple Huang Xiaotao greets master." After receiving Lin Yi's signal, Huang Xiaotao bowed to the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea in a hurry. Apart from her reluctance to part with Lin Yi, she finally felt a sliver of joy and excitement. After all, she was becoming the direct disciple of a Mountain Opening powerhouse. No one could remain completely unperturbed.
"Alright, alright, alright. Get up, disciple." The Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea hurriedly helped her up. Even with her cultivation, she struggled to hide her joy. Not only was she a genius with dual spiritual roots of fire and wind, but she was also a one in a million perfect Golden Core cultivator. Most importantly, Huang Xiaotao's kindness made her feel like she was fated with her from the bottom of her heart.
The higher one's cultivation, especially after reaching Mountain Opening, the clearer they would be able to see the insubstantial fate. The Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea had studied this very well. Taking a disciple depended on fate. Only when they were fated with each other would their fates be compatible and be happy. It was like that when she took in Wang Xinyan, and it was the same with Huang Xiaotao now.
The Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea was warm and gentle. She held Huang Xiaotao's hand and pointed at Ling Yuanqing and Wei Hebei on the side. "Come. From today onwards, the two of them are your senior uncles."
Although the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea did not share the same master as the two of them, they were both pillars of the Morning Star Academy now. They shared the same interests, so they could be regarded as fellow disciples.
"Disciple greets the two senior uncles." Huang Xiaotao immediately bowed to the two of them in understanding.
"There's no need to be so polite. Junior niece, please rise." Ling Yuanqing and Wei Hebei nodded with a smile, but they could not help but feel some pity inside. They could have been direct disciples, but they had become junior nieces instead. The feeling of missing out on a genius was like missing out on a lottery ticket in the secular world and winning a grand prize of ten million. It was quite a pity.
"She's Wang Xinyan. She joined the academy a year earlier than you. She's your senior sister," the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea introduced her to Huang Xiaotao.
"Xiaotao greets senior sister." This was the first time Huang Xiaotao had seen Wang Xinyan up close. Even as a woman, she could not help but be moved by her beauty and bearing. It was no wonder that she could become one of the three fairies of the Highlin sea region. It was also no wonder that she could be with Lin Yi in the secular world.
"Greetings, junior Xiaotao." Wang Xinyan bowed before walking over and wrapping her arm around Huang Xiaotao's in a friendly manner. She turned around and asked the Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea, "Master, I want to go out for some fresh air. I can take junior Huang back to the inn to settle her in."
"Alright. Go, but it's best if you don't leave Zhenduan City, just in case something happens." The Divine Nun of the Eastern Sea nodded in agreement. She really did dote on Wang Xinyan. No matter what her disciple said, she would basically agree to it. Her words were filled with heart-warming concern. Floating Astronomy.
