"Zishan Academy student Wei Qingxuan has killed a total of 296 enemies, including three eighth-tier Grandmasters, twenty-one seventh-tier Grandmasters, fifty-two ten-man captains, and two hundred and twenty ordinary soldiers. She has received 5,840 battle points, the title of chiliarch, and the Rank 1 Chiliarch Honor Badge!"
Other than Ye Xing, Wei Qingxuan had the most outstanding performance on the battlefield.
Although Wei Qingxuan was not as efficient as Ye Xing in killing enemies with a bow and arrow, her combat power was strong. Whether it was a seventh-layer Grandmaster or an eighth-layer Grandmaster, in front of her, there was only a path to death.
On the battlefield, the higher one's battle prowess was, the easier it was to receive battle points. This was because there would always be enemies who thought they were stronger than you and came to their deaths.
On the other hand, although a ninth-tier Grandmaster was stronger than Wei Qingxuan, the battle points he would receive might not be as high as Wei Qingxuan's. This was because in a battle, the higher one's cultivation, the more they would be targeted. Naturally, there would be ninth-tier Grandmasters who would come to stop them. In this way, one could either kill the enemy and receive 10,000 battle points, or take the opportunity to kill some ordinary soldiers and receive a small amount of battle points.
Among all the mercenaries and teachers of Zishan Academy, other than Wang Haiqing, only Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan had received the title of chiliarch in the first battle.
Wang Haiqing had received 10,000 battle points for killing a captain. Together with other battle points, he had received the Rank 2 Chiliarch Honor Badge. If Liuchuan Xiao had not been distracted by Ye Xing, Wang Haiqing would not have had the time to care about anything else when he fought with Liuchuan Xiao. The number of enemies he had killed was very few, so his battle points were not high.
The two ninth-tier Grandmasters who had slaughtered their way through the Liuchuan Army had mostly killed ordinary soldiers. They had only killed a few centurions. Therefore, although they had killed a lot of people, their battle points were not high. It was only enough for them to receive the title of centurion, which was still far from that.
… …
After the battle points were awarded, some people were happy, while others were envious.
Ye Xing was undoubtedly the most envied person. 38,500 battle merits was an achievement that many people could not achieve in their lifetime.
Furthermore, Ye Xing's Rank Seven Thousand-man Commander Medal was not the only thing that made people envious. Many people were also envious that he had been summoned by Zi Shan Hou right after he had been awarded his military service.
Being summoned by Zishan Hou alone was no less difficult than obtaining a Rank 7 Chiliarch Honor Medal.
This was not the first time Ye Xing had met Zi Shanhou, but it was the first time they met alone.
"Student Ye Xing greets the Marquis."
In the main hall, Ye Xing cupped his fists and bowed to Zi Shan Hou, who was sitting on the main seat.
Ever since he had witnessed Zishan Hou's strength, Zishan Hou's position in his heart had become much higher. His heart was filled with reverence and respect for Zishan Hou.
Ye Xing knew that the person who killed the Blue Wind Eagle and the masked assassin that day was Zi Shanhou.
"In front of me, there is no need to be restrained. Feel free to be a little more casual."
Zi Shanhou waved his hand and said, "Previously, I heard from Mu Feng that your archery skills were not bad. Seeing you today, it is even better than I imagined. Very good."
Ye Xing had always felt that his archery skills were not bad, but in front of Zi Shanhou, he was a little embarrassed. His archery skills were far inferior to Zi Shanhou's.
Ye Xing said, "Compared to the Marquis's archery skills, student's skills can only be considered so-so."
"You don't need to belittle yourself. When I was your age, my archery skills could not compare to yours."
Zi Shanhou laughed and changed the topic, "The Dao of Archery is difficult, and those who are proficient in it are few and far between. This Marquis just happened to have walked a little on the Dao of Archery. I would like to take you as my disciple and teach you archery skills. Are you willing?"
Ye Xing was momentarily stunned. He never expected that Zi Shanhou would want to take him as his disciple.
Ye Xing's archery skills had now reached a bottleneck. His Revolving Arrow Technique had reached the end of its training. In the Purple Mountain Academy's library, there were no high grade secret books on archery. He wanted to learn archery but could not find a way.
Since Zi Shanhou was willing to teach him archery skills, how could Ye Xing not be willing?
Ye Xing immediately cupped his fists and said, "Student is willing …!"
After saying this, he felt that calling himself a student was inappropriate. He should be a disciple. But the etiquette of a disciple and a student were different. When a student faced the dean, they only needed to cup their fists and salute. But when a disciple met their master for the first time, they had to kneel and salute.
"Disciple Ye Xing greets master."
Ye Xing respectfully bowed to Zi Shan Hou as a disciple.
"Good, from today onwards, you are my, Hua Tianfeng's, second disciple. Stand up and speak!"
Zi Shanhou stood up and walked towards Ye Xing. His feet stepped on the ground, emitting a 'da da da da' sound.
At this time, Ye Xing knew that Zi Shanhou's legs were really crippled. The two feet that stepped on the ground were like wooden frames.
Zi Shanhou said, "Master is called Hua Tianfeng. Fourteen years ago, I was a core disciple of the Falling Star Sect. Because I did not recognize people, I was plotted against and my legs were crippled. Today, my enemy is still in the Falling Star Sect. He is a sect elder. If you become my disciple, in the future, when you enter the Falling Star Sect, I am afraid that you will be ostracized or even framed. Do you still dare to be my disciple?"
Ye Xing thought for a moment and said, "If master has enemies in the Falling Star Sect, even if I have no relationship with master, just because I am a student of Purple Mountain Academy, when I enter the Falling Star Sect, I am afraid that I will be treated as one of master's people. Since that is the case, what do I have to be afraid of? With master's support, I may be able to live a little better."
The meaning behind Ye Xing's words was very clear.
Zi Shanhou's eyes revealed a trace of admiration, saying, "Very good, you are very smart and also very honest. There are many honest idiots, but honest smart people are very rare. The most rare thing is that you are also proficient in archery. Let me learn the art of archery and have a successor. More accurately, accepting you as my disciple is a gain for me."
Ye Xing smiled embarrassedly, "I am only speaking the truth."
Zi Shanhou sighed, saying, "There are not many people who speak the truth!"
As he said this, Zi Shanhou raised his hand and a secret manual appeared in his hand — — [Gale Arrow Technique]. He continued, "I see that your arrow speed is very fast, it should be related to the wind. This [Gale Arrow Technique] is suitable for you to practice."
"Thank you master!"
Ye Xing was precisely in need of secret archery manuals. This [Gale Arrow Technique] was given to him by Zi Shanhou and should not be of a low rank. Naturally, he was overjoyed as he accepted it.
Zi Shanhou said, "The art of archery, one is eyesight, two is strength, and three is skill. None of the three can be lacking. As for how to practice, the art of archery has all the explanations. You can practice on your own. When you have mastered the [Gale Arrow Technique], I will pass on to you the true secret art of archery."
Without waiting for Ye Xing to reply, Zi Shanhou raised his hand and a large bow appeared in his hand. It looked much more domineering than Ye Xing's Dragon Tendon Bow.
"The power of an arrow shot out is not only related to the archer's strength and skill, but also the bow used to shoot the arrow. The stronger the bow, the stronger the arrow. The Dragon Tendon Bow is a bit too light for you. This Piercing Heaven Bow is a Five Cauldron Bow, suitable for you to use."
After giving the Piercing Heaven Bow to Ye Xing, Zi Shanhou took out a black arrow.
"Other than the bow, the arrow itself is also a very important factor. However, truly powerful arrows are extremely difficult to make. Moreover, most of the good arrows are consumables. Therefore, there are not many good arrows that have been passed down in the world. This Explosive Thunder Arrow can kill any warrior below the Martial Saint Realm. Keep it with you as a life-saving measure."
Giving away the secret archery manual, bow, and arrow, Zi Shanhou was already very good to Ye Xing, this newly accepted disciple of archery. However, after giving away the arrow, Zi Shanhou took out another item.
In Zi Shanhou's hand was a pitch-black ring: "This is a low grade storage ring. The space inside is just enough to store the Piercing Heaven Bow, some bows and arrows, or other weapons. As an archer, you should always have a bow and arrows by your side. Hanging them on your body will affect your movements. Therefore, you need a storage ring."
Even with Ye Xing's mental state, at this moment, his eyes lit up and his heart thumped faster.
A storage ring, this was a treasure that even Martial Saints might not necessarily possess.
With a storage ring, it would be much more convenient to carry things on your body. Unlike now, Ye Xing always had a bow slung over his shoulder and a quiver of arrows on his back. During battle, he even carried two quiver of arrows. Now, he could directly stuff them into the storage ring and wear them on his hand. His body was relaxed.
And when he wanted to use them, the items would automatically appear in his hand. How convenient!
Eh, wait a minute … Ye Xing quickly realized that he still did not know how to use a storage ring.
"This is an ownerless storage ring. Drip a drop of blood essence on it and the storage ring will automatically absorb it. Then, it will be connected to your blood vessels, just like a part of your body. How to use it, you will naturally understand.
Ye Xing circulated his qi and forced out a drop of blood essence from his heart. He dripped it on the storage ring and sure enough, it was completely absorbed.
Very quickly, Ye Xing sensed that the space inside the storage ring was really like a part of his body. Everything inside could be clearly seen.
With a thought, Ye Xing put the secret archery manual, Piercing Heaven Bow, and Exploding Thunder Arrow that Zi Shanhou had given him into the storage ring.
Then, Ye Xing took the Dragon Tendon Bow and the quiver on his back and put them into the storage ring as well.
The space inside a low-grade storage ring was not big, about 1.5 meters in length, width, and height. It could not store any large items, but it was more than enough to put the bow in. It could also store many arrows, swords, and other non-long weapons, or clothes and other things.
Ye Xing had nothing extra on him except for the storage ring. He felt much more comfortable than carrying the quiver and bow.
"Master's kindness, I will never forget it." Ye Xing was happy in his heart, but he did not forget about it and thanked Zi Shanhou.
Zi Shanhou waved his hand and said, "This is only a small matter, what kind of kindness is it? If you really do not forget it, just remember it in your heart. There is no need to talk about it. You are a smart person, Master does not like to listen to such formalities."
Ye Xing smiled slightly, "Master is right."
Zi Shanhou said, "Only you and I know that I have accepted you as my disciple. There is no need to tell others, so as to avoid attracting trouble for you. If you enter the Falling Star Sect in the future, whether you are a student of the Purple Mountain Academy or my disciple will be different in the eyes of others. The degree of impact will also be different. You may leave."
Ye Xing was surprised, "Senior Brother Wang Feng also did not tell me?"
Zi Shanhou shook his head.
