Chapter V My first Disciple

I had watched the whole fight with quite the enthusiasm, and was surprised how a Body Tempering could still continuously defend against a Foundation Establishment attacks.

Of course, that wasn't enough to defeat him but I was still amazed by the courage the girl showed, not giving up.

After the fight, I walked towards the Girl, who was the first person in this world who surprised me.

"Yi Yina?"

I said not quietly but not loud either.

"Huh?" She turned around and was surprised when she looked at me.

"Who are you? Wait! Aren't you the person who sat next to the elders?"

"Yes…" I replied, thinking it was quite funny that she didn't think I was one of them, but thought I was a disciple.

"Well, I have seen you have fought quite good. Even against someone a main realm higher than you. I am impressed!"

I tried again, sounding very happy even though she lost.

"Yes, but even so, I have lost, and I won't be able to become a disciple anymore."

She said and slowly turned around, continuing to walk towards the Yin Families tent.

"Wait!" I held her hand, not thinking about the meaning behind it.

"Ah!" She jumped lightly, paniced and even a bit shy about what I just did.

"What do you want?" She said shy.

"Do you want to be my disciple?" I said.

"Your Disicple?" She said, thinking I was joking. "You are a disciple yourself and you already wish to accept your own?"

"My, maybe i haven't introduced myself really." I said and took a deep breath.

"I am the Sect Leader of the Holy Tiger Sect, a 9th Stage Foundation Cultivation Cultivator."

"Wh- What?! Your the- the sect leader?"

She replied scared, "I am sorry I didn't notice you, sect leader, I hope you can forgive me."

She felt down on her knees, begging for forgiveness.

"Dont you think I may also just tell you a lie? Maybe I am not the sect leader?"

"No,no I have heard from your greatness, that your so young and have already reached a realm many people dream of."

"Mh your flattering me, so I ask again. Do you wish to become my first disciple? I won't wrong you." I tried again.

"If the Sect Leader is willing to take me in, I am completely willing to become your disciple. But if I join, could you help me with something?"

"Oh? You have a request? Well, I will do what you wish, as my first disciple." I replied, showing my pride, "what should I do for you?"

"I hope you can assist my father, and make the first elder not dare to resist again!" She said wholeheartedly,

"Oh? Nothing more? Just this simple request." I asked again, looking into her deep blue eyes.

"Wel, I will fulfill your wish, if your father is in need, I will help him.

"Follow me, I will bring you to your cultivation roo-"

"Halt! Sect Leader?" A voice sounding like a young boy, entered my ear. I turned around to just see Yi Yuan, my disciple had just fought against.

"Why did you choose Yina? I even beat her, am I not a better choice?" He said without caring about anything else in this moment.

"Why I chose Yina and not you? That's quite a big question." I replied and turned around with a smile, because I have seen the potential in her, and you are not qualified for my needs."

"Yina, come here let's go." I grabbed her hand again, against her will and dragged her with me, leaving the huge crowd that had surrounded me and her.

We arrived at my mansion only about six minutes later, when she looked at my home, I could see the fascination in her eyes, as this building was built by the founder and ancestor of the Holy Tiger Sect himself, no one knew what realm he mangaged to achieve but over a thousand years ago, he suddenly disappeared, just like my father.

"What do you think?" I continued to pull her inside, showing her the huge entrance hall, the cultivation room, the dining area and of course my bedroom. Well not exactly my bedroom as she shyly ran away when I opened the door. I don't even know why.

Well after I showed her the cultivation room wich had a lot more spiritual essence in the air then anywhere else in the sect, she desperately wanted to stay and improve her cultivation. As a good Master and Teacher I gave her some simple Spiritual Pills which could quickly improve her strength.

What I didn't know was that even a huge family like the Yin of the Stoneheart City, only gave her one or two a month. And I have given her twenty. I sat down and started to cultivate, not expecting to breakthrough but to solidify my foundation. When the screen only visible to me appeared again.

[ Mission Completed! First Disciple. ]

[ Reward: For every Stage your Disciple achieves, you will be reward a fifth of the cultivation ]

[ Second Reward: One Breakthrough, A Black Grade Sword <Xuanyu> ]

"Great! It seems like I have to help my disciple breakthrough faster, accept rewards!" I whispered and could feel a hot energy entering my dantian, filling it with spiritual essence.

[ Your Spiritual Sea is full, do you wish to breakthrough? ]

"Yes!"

[ Successfully broken through, you have entered the Connate Realm, (first stage) ]

"Finally, the realm many dream of and I had finally done it again. Not even the elder could shake my position that easily anymore.
