Chapter 1721: Joining the Military? (Please Subscribe)_1
As they were in discussion, Yun Ming and the Elders gradually approached...
Seeing this, everyone respectfully said,
"Pavilion Master, Elders!"
Yun Ming smiled slightly and spoke softly, "It seems that you all are in a good mood, which means that holding this Sea God Matchmaking Event was the right decision!"
Immediately afterward, his gaze turned to the side to Long Yeyue, "Elder Long, it's your turn to speak."
Upon hearing this statement, Tang Wulin and the others were all confused...
However, Long Yeyue nodded slightly and then turned her gaze to Xu Lizhi. She spoke word by word, "Xu Lizhi, I once promised that if you entered the Academy, I would take you as my disciple. So now, I formally ask you, do you wish to become my disciple?"
As soon as these words were spoken, not only did Tang Wulin and the others have their eyes wide open, but Xu Lizhi himself was also stunned, then sheer ecstasy filled his eyes...
After all, the elder before them was the renowned Light and Shadow Douluo, and also the most senior Elder of the Sea God's Pavilion, with a formidable strength that reached the terrifying level of a level-99 Ultimate Douluo!
And for such a mighty figure to take him as a disciple was definitely a great thing!
Ye Xinglan coughed and said, "Lizhi, what are you dazed for? Hurry up and give Elder Long your answer!"
Xie Xie smacked his lips and said, "I'm so envious, Lizhi can actually become Elder Long's disciple!"
Tang Wulin nodded and said, "Yeah! Although we don't know why, becoming Elder Long's disciple is definitely a good thing for Lizhi!"
Being too excited, Xu Lizhi stammered, "Elder ... Elder Long, I ... I am willing to become your disciple!"
Long Yeyue also spoke softly, "Hmm, but shouldn't there be a change in how you address me?"
Xu Lizhi immediately understood, bending his clumsy body, "Tea... Teacher!"
Long Yeyue then nodded in satisfaction, "Hmm ..."
Feng Wu Yu stroked his beard and looked at Yun Ming, "Pavilion Master, now that Elder Long has taken Xu Lizhi as a disciple, perhaps it's time to discuss that matter?"
Ya Li also chimed in, "Yes! It's better to tell them in advance so that the children can be mentally prepared!"
Tang Wulin frowned slightly, querying, "Elders, if I may be so bold to ask, what matter are you referring to?"
The others' gaze also turned toward Yun Ming, waiting for his response.
Yun Ming pursed his lips slightly and said, "You are now inner court students of Shrek Academy, and your strength and talent have been recognized. However, there are still some areas where you are lacking!"
"Therefore, after discussing with the Elders, we have decided to have you train in a rather special military force for a period of one year!"
Wu Siduo frowned slightly, "Pavilion Master, if I may speak frankly, military training shouldn't be of any relevance to us!"
Yuanen Yehui also unflappably said, "Hmm, rather than joining the military for training, it would be better to cultivate on our own!"
Xu Xiaoyan also said despondently, "I don't want to join the military either, wouldn't my soul power rank fall behind?"
But Tang Wulin reassured them, "Everyone, don't be in a hurry to refuse. If the Pavilion Master has said this, there must be a unique aspect to this military force!"
In terms of development, the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion might be even more concerned than they themselves, but since they dared to speak in such a way, there must be absolute assurance!
Moreover, the Pavilion Master also said it was a unique military force!
Yun Ming nodded approvingly and elaborated, "Correct, it is a military force that belongs to the federation but not completely under federation control! Even the federation is unaware of its origins and strength!"
"However, what is certain is that joining this military force would be of great help to you all!"
Seeing their concerns, Ya Li gently reassured, "Don't worry, children, the Elders and the Pavilion Master wouldn't make a joke of your futures!"
After pondering deeply, everyone no longer refused but chose to agree...
Yun Ming didn't say anything more, reminding, "Then tonight, you all should rest well and replenish your energy. We'll set off immediately tomorrow!"
"Yes!"
…
Within the Star Luo Empire Palace!
The emperor, Dai Tianling, looked significantly more haggard than before…
The main reason for this situation was the Holy Spirit Cult!
Seeing this, the ministers below all spoke up, "Your Majesty the Emperor, you haven't had proper rest for a long time. We suggest you stay in the palace to rest for the next few days."
"Yes, Your Majesty, if you continue like this, your health will surely falter!"
"As the emperor of our Xingluo Empire, you must absolutely not let anything happen to you!"
"The movements of the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters have diminished a lot, so there's no need to be so worried!"
Dai Tianling took a deep breath, "Thank you all for your kind intentions, but I am well aware of my own condition, cough cough..."
As soon as he finished his words, he coughed violently twice...
Dai Yueyan immediately stepped forward with concern, "Father Emperor!"
Dai Tianling merely waved his hand to indicate he was not in serious trouble…
His eyes then flickered, "If memory serves, Yun'er has been away from the Star Luo Empire for several months now. It's time to bring her back!"
Although there won't be any danger at Shrek Academy, there's no telling if the students might reject her!
No sooner had he spoken than a minister promptly responded, "Your Majesty, please leave this matter to me! I will set out to welcome Lady Pavilion Master tomorrow!"
Dai Tianling said earnestly, "Mm! Ensure Yun'er's safety at all costs!"
After discussing for another two hours, Dai Tianling finally took a deep breath, "If there's nothing else, then let's end here for today."
Visibly, the ministers exchanged glances and gradually left one after another…
Only after everyone had left did Dai Yueyan approach Dai Tianling and, furrowing his brows, said, "Father Emperor, maybe you should heed the ministers' advice and take a temporary rest."
Dai Tianling shook his head, "It's not yet time for rest. The Star Luo Empire is at a critical juncture, and it cannot be without me!"
Seeing this, Dai Yueyan said with conviction, "Father Emperor, if it's possible, and I'm only saying if, you can leave these matters to me!"
He didn't wish to use this as a chance to seek the throne but only wanted to alleviate the burden from the former!
Knowing this, Dai Tianling wasn't annoyed, but rather responded in a resigned tone, "Yan'er, I understand your intention, but even as the Crown Prince, who has been involved in politics from a young age, it is difficult to gain the support of these ministers!"
If it were possible, he would have passed the throne to Dai Yueyan!
But the truth was that if he did so, it would surely incite strong dissatisfaction among the ministers!
