Chapter 318

[Hearing Yanqing, the process of teaching a student is also a way to examine what you have learned and deepen your understanding of the craft.]

[You have been a disciple for many years; it is time to broaden your horizons.]

Jing Yuan persuaded Hearing Yanqing with a few words.

[...I understand. As the General says, I agree!]

Upon hearing Jing Yuan's words,

Hearing Yanqing nodded heavily.

[Since Hearing Yanqing has also agreed, then all that remains is for Miss March to nod.]

Xiangling: "Both masters have agreed, so will Miss March 7th agree?"

Stelle: "What a great opportunity, free teaching from master teachers!"

Stelle: "It would be a huge loss not to agree, right?"

Stelle: "March, once you agree, you can transform and become the grand-disciple of two Luofu Xianzhou Generals!"

Stelle: "That background is absolutely solid!"

Jing Yuan: "Hahaha, I never thought I'd have a grand-disciple too."

Jing Yuan: "It's truly a wonderful feeling."

March 7th: "This... I'm still a bit unsure."

March 7th: "If I don't learn well, losing face for myself is a small matter, but losing face for my two masters would be a great unfilial act, right?"

Miss Yunli: "Don't be afraid. As long as you follow my plan, I guarantee you'll hold your head high!"

Miss Yunli: "And don't worry about losing face for your master; your Master Hearing Yanqing is shameless, he's not afraid of losing face!"

Hearing Yanqing: "How are you talking?"

Hearing Yanqing: "You're the one who's shameless!"

Hearing Yanqing: "Miss March, don't listen to Miss Yunli's nonsense!"

Hearing Yanqing: "Learn Luofu swordsmanship from me, I'll teach you the essence. Although I can't guarantee you'll become a top-tier sword master,"

Hearing Yanqing: "I definitely won't let you lose your dignity!"

March 7th: "Uh... the two of you are truly hard to refuse."

March 7th: "But I can't make this decision either; it depends on what the me in the video chooses!"

The video continues.

[March, this matter ultimately has to be decided by you.]

Dan Heng left the choice to March 7th.

[March, change your job and become the number one sword master of the Express!]

Stelle egged her on from the side,

drawing a strange look from March 7th.

[That way, I won't have to worry about you shooting me in the butt every time.]

Facing March 7th's gaze,

Stelle explained calmly.

[I always shoot very accurately!!]

Stelle: "Indeed, once March 7th changes her job to become the Express's sword master, my butt won't have to worry anymore."

Stelle: "Full of security."

Stelle: "It's great."

March 7th: "Damn it, I'm suing you for slander!"

March 7th: "When have I ever shot your butt!"

Stelle: "You haven't shot my butt yet, but it's not because your aim is good, it's because I dodge fast."

Stelle: "Otherwise, my butt would have blossomed long ago."

Silver Wolf: "Hmm, I saw it before when we were fighting Aventurine; March's arrows seemed to be chasing you."

March 7th: "Ah, this... you can't blame me for that. On a heated battlefield, it's hard to aim well..."

Stelle: "That's why the sword is more reliable!"

Stelle: "At least you won't accidentally hurt teammates or miss damage."

Stelle: "March, keep it up!"

Stelle: "I'm waiting for your feat of cutting down an Emanator with a single sword aura!"

March 7th: "Forget it, I wouldn't even dare to have such a daydream in Penacony!"

Mualani: "Hehe, people should have dreams."

Mualani: "What if they come true in the future?"

The video continues.

[Then it's settled! Thank you for your kindness, General General Huaiyan.]

March 7th thought for a moment,

and finally agreed with a face full of joy.

[Great! Starting tomorrow, Hearing Yanqing and Miss Yunli will teach you the basic essentials of Cloud Knight swordsmanship every day.]

[Next, Miss Yunli and I will take our leave first to prepare some gear for Miss March's sword practice, as a gift for becoming her masters~]

Seeing March 7th agree,

General Huaiyan smiled with relief,

and turned to walk toward the door with Miss Yunli.

[Hahaha, you are too polite... wait, who is preparing the master-disciple gift for whom?]

Stelle: "Ah, this?"

Stelle: "The master preparing a gift for the disciple?"

Stelle: "What kind of topsy-turvy world is this?"

Paimon: "Wow! You get gifts for becoming a disciple!!"

Paimon: "Is the treatment this good?"

Paimon: "Even Paimon is tempted..."

March 7th: "Eh eh, shouldn't it be me, the disciple, preparing a gift for the two masters?"

March 7th: "How did I end up being the one receiving gifts?"

March 7th: "This isn't right, is it?"

Boothill: "What the hell, is it bribery to keep the disciple from running away?"

Boothill: "Hahaha, doesn't seem very reliable."

Miss Qingque: "Oh, I get it!"

Miss Qingque: "This is also a way for masters to compete!"

Miss Qingque: "Tsk tsk, do masters have to be this competitive these days?"

General Feixiao: "Ha, interesting."

General Feixiao: "Usually it's the disciple honoring the master, but with you three, it's the other way around."

Miss Yunli: "I don't think it's a big deal. It's our honor that Miss March 7th trusts us and is willing to be our disciple."

Miss Yunli: "Isn't it only right to give some benefits?"

Hearing Yanqing: "Indeed. Hearing Yanqing doesn't think he's reached the level of being a master yet, but since Miss March is willing to humble herself to learn from me, then Hearing Yanqing will naturally give it his all and give his disciple the best!"

Lumine: "What responsible little masters."

Lumine: "Miss March 7th will definitely be able to learn real skills now!"

The video continues.

[Ah... General General Huaiyan has left.]

[Why do I feel like the previous topic was a bit off!]

[Uh, did the discussion go off-topic? How did things turn out like this?]

Watching the backs of General Huaiyan and Miss Yunli disappearing behind the door,

March 7th suddenly realized in hindsight,

that the development of events seemed to have gone slightly off track.

[Yeah, I brought everyone to the Seat of Divine Foresight because the General had important matters to discuss, how did...]

[How did Miss Yunli and I become Miss March's sword masters in the blink of an eye?]

Hearing Yanqing scratched his head, also feeling a bit confused.

[Because... Mr. General Huaiyan hopes we will stay on the Luofu Luofu Xianzhou for a period of time.]

Dan Heng thought for a moment and said.

[But we came here just to observe the ceremony, right?]

Stelle couldn't quite understand.

[But in his eyes, we are no different from tourists who might leave at any time.]

[Since the record of the Express's actions appeared in the Luofu's report to the Alliance, he must want to see for himself whether we truly have the capabilities mentioned in the report, rather than it being an excuse made up to cover things up.]

[The Wardance Ceremony is his litmus test.]

[For this, he even dragged Miss Yunli into it.]

[It was originally just a competitive bet between two young people... now it has become the two of you teaming up to teach March 7th.]

Stelle: "Ginger really is spicier when it's old!"

Stelle: "General General Huaiyan just moved his lips, and now we're stuck here working for free at any time."

Stelle: "And he can even investigate the truth of the matter along the way; truly killing many birds with one stone!"

General Huaiyan: "Hahaha, how can this be called working for free?"

General Huaiyan: "After all, Miss March 7th is also very willing to stay on the Luofu to learn swordsmanship, isn't she?"

General Huaiyan: "But to be honest, after seeing the Express's trip to Penacony, I knew your capabilities and there was no need to doubt them anymore."

General Huaiyan: "Lord Ravager Phantylia is very strong, but with your assistance, Jing Yuan indeed has the ability to turn the Luofu from danger to safety."

Zhongli: "But it's a pity that General General Huaiyan in the video had no way to witness the Express's actual performance firsthand."

Zhongli: "Therefore, for the sake of prudence, it was ultimately necessary to test them."

March 7th: "I understand the logic, but isn't this test a bit too much like child's play?"

March 7th: "Does it mean that if I learn well, it proves the Express is capable, and if I don't learn well, it means the Express is just fishing for fame??"

Stelle: "Exactly, March, you have now become the face of our Express!"

Stelle: "For the glorious reputation of our Astral Express, you must not lose face for us!!"

Stelle: "Otherwise I won't have the face to see anyone... wuwu!!"

Miss Qingque: "Hahaha, how is it?"

Miss Qingque: "Do you feel the pressure is maxed out?"

March 7th: "Uh... I'm not taking the blame for this!"

March 7th: "My personal performance cannot represent the entire Express!"

The video continues.

[Old Yan is still the Old Yan who gives everyone a headache.]

Jing Yuan shook his head helplessly,

and then said solemnly:

[I must apologize here.]

[I invited everyone to return to observe the ceremony with the intention of presenting human witnesses to the two Generals, but it was Jing Yuan's fault for not being honest about it.]

[In addition to Old Yan, in the coming weeks, I will also invite everyone to meet with General General Feixiao to accept her questions and resolve her doubts. I hope everyone will be prepared.]

Jing Yuan looked at the three of them with sincerity.

[Uh... is it too late for us to pack up and leave overnight?]

Stelle heard that there was still a questioning process,

and couldn't help but complain.

[Did we do something wrong? We truly saved the Luofu, why should we leave like fugitives?]

March 7th felt that what Stelle said was a bit problematic.

They were upright and honorable, why would they need to run away?

[Stelle, no need to worry.]

[In any case, I will stay as a witness for the Express and accept the questioning.]

Dan Heng nodded,

effectively agreeing to Jing Yuan's request.

[Thank you.]

Jing Yuan thanked them gratefully.

Stelle: "Uh... why do I inexplicably feel like I'm about to be interrogated?"

Stelle: "But as March said, we are the real heroes who saved the Luofu!"

Fu Xuan: "Sorry, it mainly involves the rebirth of the Ambrosial Arbor."

Fu Xuan: "The Alliance attaches unprecedented importance to this."

Fu Xuan: "That's why we have to be so cautious."

Jing Yuan: "Sigh, in the end, it was I who implicated everyone."

Jing Yuan: "I really should apologize to everyone."

March 7th: "General, you're too polite. You've helped us a lot too, haven't you?"

Jing Yuan: "My little help is not worth mentioning compared to everyone's kindness to the Luofu."

Stelle: "Forget it, forget it. Help people to the end; who told us the Express is a bunch of good-natured people!"

Stelle: "The problem is, when the questioning comes, won't General General Feixiao hit us if she gets impatient?"

General Feixiao: "Ha?"

General Feixiao: "Do I look like some kind of violent maniac?"

Furina: "Doesn't look like it, I think General General Feixiao is a very good person."

Furina: "She shouldn't deliberately make things difficult for people."

Stelle: "Alright then, no problem!"

Stelle: "Of course, even if we have to get beaten up, Dan Heng will be the one taking it!"

Silver Wolf: "Laughing to death, what insincerity."

Silver Wolf: "I see that every time there's a fight, you're the one who rushes in the fastest!"

Hu Tao: "Hahaha, this might be what they call saying one thing but meaning another?"

The video continues.

[General! There isn't much Hearing Yanqing can do to share the burden for you, but Hearing Yanqing...]

Hearing Yanqing looked at Jing Yuan with slight worry, stopping mid-sentence.

[Hmm?]

Jing Yuan was a bit confused by Hearing Yanqing's expression.

[Hearing Yanqing will definitely guard the Wardance Ceremony arena for the Luofu!]

Hearing Yanqing seemed to have made up his mind,

and said with a firm face.

[I know.]

Regarding Hearing Yanqing's determination,

Jing Yuan didn't say much.

Three words expressed everything.

Venti: "I know!"

Venti: "Just three simple words, yet I heard General Jing Yuan's extraordinary trust in his disciple!"

Venti: "It's truly moving."

Stelle: "Actually, Hearing Yanqing, you don't need to prove anything to General Jing Yuan at all."

Stelle: "Because he has always understood you."

Hearing Yanqing: "But Hearing Yanqing has received the General's teachings, which is a great kindness!"

Hearing Yanqing: "Hearing Yanqing cannot share too much of the General's heavy burden, so Hearing Yanqing can only do his best to do his part!"
