Zhu Shaodan curiously asked, âWho is Yu Jiang?â
âHush, keep your voice down.â Huang Mao quickly covered his mouth.
âThis name is now a taboo, no one dares to mention it. You just need to know that he founded this martial arts competition. Everyone in the association can sign up to participate and it lasts for three days. The winner will receive the Brave Medal, which is a symbol of the strongest. The winner of the last competition was Ye Jian.â
Zhu Shaodan was stunned: âIs it the Ye Jian who is with Master Xiao?â
âYes, he is from the ancient martial arts sect, the Xuanjing Sect. He also has a junior sister named Ye Shuang, who is Master Xiaoâs confidante. There are also four great masters of Wind, Rain, Thunder and Lightning from the ancient martial arts sect around Master Xiao,â
Zhu Shaodan, with a look of longing, said: âSo will they participate in this yearâs martial arts competition?â
Huang Mao shook his head: âIn order to promote innovation, Master Xiao stipulates that those who have won the martial arts competition cannot participate in the next one.â
Zhu Shaodan breathed a sigh of relief: âThatâs good. When will the martial arts competition start?â
âEvery year during the golden autumn in October, but we have to wait for Master Linâs notice for the specific time.â
Zhu Shaodan was full of confidence: âThis yearâs champion must be my master.â
Xie Zi came over and said, âYoung Master, Master Xiao is looking for you.â
He stared at Zhu Shaodanâs face, wondering what was so special about him that both Master Xiao and Xi Yu were so interested in him.
Zhu Shaodan pointed at himself in surprise: âMaster Xiaoâ¦is looking for me?â
Has the sun risen from the west?
Xie Zi nodded: âDonât keep Master Xiao waiting.â
Zhu Shaodan hurriedly followed him. As soon as he left, Huang Mao and the others started chattering excitedly.
âIs Lynn going to make it big? Master Xiao actually wants to see him?â
âDid Xi Yu take him as a disciple? My God, Lynn is really a chosen one. We really didnât make a mistake in following him.â
âIn the future, letâs see if Wang Quanâs group will dare to bully us. We have Xi
Yu and Master Xiao as our backers.â
Zhu Shaodan took a deep breath and entered with a do-or-die attitude.
However, he thought too much. Master Xiao, who was regarded as evil in the eyes of outsiders, was actually a very considerate and approachable superior.
âSit.â Ran Tengxiao pointed to the chair across.
Zhu Shaodan cautiously sat down.
âMasterâ¦Master Xiao, hello, I am Young Master Lin.â
âMr. Zhu, have you been having fun these days?â Ran Tengxiao leisurely poured tea, the tea mist making his words somewhat unclear.
Zhu Shaodan almost knelt to the ground, looking incredulously at the calm man across from him.
âMaster Xiao, I didnât mean to deceive you.â
âI understand, children have rebellious phases.â
Zhu Shaodan shook his head firmly: âIâm not being rebellious. Iâve thought it through. This is the path I want to take.â
Ran Tengxiao glanced at him, the first time he had looked closely at the young man.
Mr. Zhu, the recently famous little sister of the Zhu family in Jiangzhou, instead of being a wealthy young master, hid his identity and served as a small follower by his side. This kid was either too smart or too foolish.
âI know what youâve been doing lately, not bad, promising.â
Zhu Shaodanâs eyes lit up with surprise and joy, looking at Ran Tengxiao. Master Xiao actually praised me!
Ran Tengxiao found it quite amusing, this kid was interesting.
âDo you really want to stay by my side?â
Zhu Shaodan suddenly stood up and said confidently: âMaster Xiao, you are my idol. I will go through fire and water for you in this life, never hesitating to die.â
Ran Tengxiao waved his hand with a smile: âThe vigorous young spirit is good. If you really decide to stay with me, there is a task for you to do now. Can you handle it?â
Zhu Shaodanâs chest surged with pride and excitement: âMaster Xiao, rest assured, I guarantee to complete the task.â
âSit. This task is actually quite simple, but it requires someone with a meticulous mind to complete it.â
âMaster Xiao, just give the order. I will do my best.â
Zhu Shaodanâs whole body was full of energy. His opportunity to shine had come.
âMadam, Old Madam, Young Master is back,â Uncle Wen rushed in, excitedly saying.
Lin Qingâs chopsticks dropped on the table with a âsnapâ, and she stood up, not believing it: âShaodan? Shaodan is back?â
Granny Zhu was also overjoyed, her face full of wrinkles smiling like a chrysanthemum, âMy grandson is backâ¦.â
