Chapter 130: Choosing a Master

The scene of four purple rays of light falling around Li Luo was also projected onto the light screen of Xinshengdian, causing the expressions of many present to become somewhat complicated.

Clearly, the dual-phase talent and potential Li Luo had revealed had stirred the hearts of the other four Purple Radiance mentors in this Master-Selecting Competition.

This stirring of hearts outweighed the face of Shen Shen Jinxiao, this Marquis Realm powerhouse.

So they directly dropped their Fu Yin, choosing Li Luo.

As long as Li Luo picked out one Fu Yin from among them, he could smoothly become the disciple of that Purple Radiance mentor.

As for the many senior students of Shengxuanxing Academy, they did not have the various thoughts of those important figures from all sides; they merely watched this scene with sighs of admiration.

After all, being able to trigger a scramble among the Purple Radiance mentors already proved Li Luo's excellence and potential.

Truly a scene that makes one envious and fills the blood with fervor.

"Wow, this Li Luo has some skill, to actually be able to turn things around and attract a scramble from the Purple Radiance mentors." At the highest point of the stands, the little Emperor said in surprise.

His eyes sparkled as he looked at Li Luo's figure in the light screen. Earlier, Li Luo's battle with Duze Duze Beixuan had been fairly evenly matched, but who could have expected such a reversal at the end.

The Eldest Princess also watched with great interest, then smiled at Vice Principal Suxin and said: "Vice Principal, which Purple Radiance mentor do you think he will choose?"

Vice Principal Suxin said with a light laugh: "How could I possibly guess that."

"Actually, judging from the Myriad Tree Bind Li Luo used earlier, I suspect the grade of his second phase isn't all that high, so when you combine his two phases, he might be slightly stronger than the lower eighth-grade, but weaker than the upper eighth-grade."

"The reason the four Purple Radiance mentors are moved is mainly because dual phases are indeed too rare."

The Eldest Princess nodded and said: "Dual phases are indeed rare. After all, no matter what, this is the power of dual phases. This kind of power is generally a domain that only Marquis Realm powerhouses can touch. Li Luo being able to touch it before reaching the Marquis Realm, even if he has only grasped the surface, is still a considerable advantage."

"This will even provide some assistance for his future attempt to break through to the Marquis Realm."

When her words fell, she paused, then added: "But this Li Luo, his personality really is a bit... special."

She recalled the scene of this guy hiding outside and shooting Duze Duze Beixuan full of arrows like a porcupine with wooden arrows, and couldn't help the corners of her red lips curving up. This Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge are truly two extremes.

Jiang Jiang Qinge is upright and proper, crushing her opponents with a grand momentum that leaves them sincerely convinced, while Li Luo here completely omitted that point—if he can talk his way through, he absolutely won't lift a hand.

I don't need you to be sincerely convinced, I just need to infuriate you to death.

Truly a... weirdo.

While the various important figures in Xinshengdian were exclaiming, Li Luo was likewise staring at the Zi Se Fu Yin within the four light pillars that had fallen around him, then he looked again at the expressionless Shen Shen Jinxiao ahead, and the smile at the corner of his mouth gradually became brazen and brilliant.

"Mentor Shen, it seems that I, Li Luo, still have a bit of value, don't I..."

Shen Shen Jinxiao's expression was indifferent; he paid no heed to the provocation in Li Luo's words, because he understood that once Li Luo revealed his dual phases, his targeting of Li Luo had lost its effect.

If Li Luo were merely a barely passable student, then apart from that woman, the other three Purple Radiance mentors would certainly not have offended him for Li Luo's sake. After all, no matter what, they were all Marquis Realm cultivators and colleagues at Shengxuanxing Academy, and would give each other some courtesy and face.

But in the end, Li Luo was no ordinary student—he had revealed his rare dual phases.

In that case, his Shen Shen Jinxiao's face had somewhat fallen to the losing side.

The rarity of dual phases is not much less than that of a ninth-grade phase. If one could take Li Luo under one's wing, the probability of a Marquis Realm powerhouse emerging from one's tutelage in the future would be much greater.

This round of targeting could be considered his misstep.

Therefore, when the four Zi Se Fu Yin appeared, he suppressed all his thoughts and merely watched coldly from the sidelines with indifference.

Li Luo did not continue to provoke further, but turned his gaze to the four Zi Se Fu Yin around him, and for a moment began to feel somewhat troubled.

Too many mentors had suddenly turned around for him, making it a bit difficult for him to choose.

"Four mentors, in a situation like this, how should I choose?" Li Luo asked awkwardly.

He knew that the four Purple Radiance mentors represented by the Zi Se Fu Yin must be watching this place.

The four Zi Se Fu Yin were quiet for several breaths, then a calm woman's voice rang out: "My name is Xi Chan. All four Purple Radiance mentors here are actually very good choices, but my advantage is that I won't give Shen Shen Jinxiao any face at all. Even before you revealed your dual phases, I was already paying attention to you. However, to be honest, if you had lost to Duze Duze Beixuan, I wouldn't have chosen you—not because I was concerned about Shen Shen Jinxiao's face, but simply because I felt you didn't have the qualifications."

The other three Zi Se Fu Yin did not transmit any sound. Although Li Luo's dual phases were very rare, as Marquis Realm powerhouses they naturally had their own pride and reserve, and would not really squabble and fight over him like fishwives hurling insults on the street.

Since someone had spoken up now, they would simply quietly await the result. Moreover, what Xi Chan said was indeed not false.

She and Shen Shen Jinxiao did indeed have some past grievances.

Li Luo heard the words of this female mentor named Xi Chan, thought briefly, and in the end did not hesitate. He merely said respectfully to the other three Zi Se Fu Yin: "Thank you, three mentors, for Luo De Kan Zhong."

Hearing this, those three Zi Se Fu Yin understood Li Luo's choice. They said nothing, but the Fu Yin trembled, the purple light pillars dispersed, and the Fu Yin vanished into thin air.

Li Luo looked at the last remaining Zi Se Fu Yin, rose with a solemn expression, then pressed his palms together, bent respectfully toward the Fu Yin, and performed a bow of apprenticeship.

"Student Li Luo pays respects to my teacher."

This thoroughly decided his teacher at Shengxuanxing Academy from now on.

And this relationship would last until Li Luo entered the Three Star Hall or Four Star Hall.

The Zi Se Fu Yin radiated a halo of light and did not speak, but gently descended, landing in Li Luo's two palms.

"Shen Shen Jinxiao, if you have nothing else, you may leave." From the Zi Se Fu Yin, a faint voice emerged.

Shen Shen Jinxiao gave a faint smile and said nothing. With a sweep of his sleeve, phase power surged, sweeping up the unconscious Duze Duze Beixuan, and he vanished on the spot.

After Shen Shen Jinxiao disappeared, the place fell quiet. That Xi Chan also said nothing more, and only then did Li Luo straighten his body.

He looked at the Zi Se Fu Yin in his hand. In the center of the Fu Yin, a slender character "Xi" was inscribed.

"Xi Chan, huh..."

Li Luo smiled. Having a Purple Radiance mentor suddenly gave him much more confidence. It seemed he would have to serve this teacher well from now on.

He put away the Zi Se Fu Yin, then sat down cross-legged and continued to rest, because with the Fu Yin in hand, his Master-Selecting Competition this time was already considered over. Next, he just had to wait to be summoned out.

"I wonder what the results are for Qing'er, Seeing Yu Lang, Zhao Kuo and the others now..."
