Does anyone actually Believes That My Master Is A Mortal?

In the territory of Zhongzhou.

Inside a mundane city called 'Long Shadow City'.

Chu Yuan and Ao Yu sat in front of a noodle shop, eating.

After coming out of the Cultivators Alliance, they had made their way here.

At this moment.

Chu Yuan's complexion looked awful as he sat there, eating a bowl of noodles.

Only food could make him feel a bit better.

He really couldn't understand.

Why was teaching a disciple to fail so difficult?

You say Ye Luo has no Spirit Root, but possesses a Physique Close to the Path, he could understand that.

You say Zhang Han lost his Spirit Root to lightning, but was born with an Innate Array Heart, he could also understand that.

You say Su Qianyuan has no soul and thus cannot cultivate, but he's undergone Body Refinement, and with Zhang Han's help, he could become successful, which he could barely comprehend.

But what the hell is with Dantai Luo Xue?

Without Zhang Han's help, and being a natural genius who was taught haphazardly by him, and also learning how to play chess, how could he become successful?

How was he supposed to understand that?

It didn't make sense no matter how he thought about it! Enjoy more content from empire

If just anybody could become successful, why hadn't he achieved success?

He was still at the Foundation Establishment Realm!

Moreover, this time he had also lost over ten thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones.

No wonder Chu Yuan was in a bad mood.

It was impressive that he wasn't spitting blood out of sheer frustration.

Chu Yuan grimly ate his noodles.

Ao Yu beside him trembled in fear.

He felt that the aura of the man sitting opposite him was extremely terrifying, as if he were in a dreadful mood.

Sitting beside him, he felt as if he might get hit, so he could only shrink his head down, not daring to touch the noodles in front of him.

"Ao Yu."

Chu Yuan suddenly spoke up.

Clang...

Ao Yu subconsciously stood up, knocking against the table.

The bowl of noodles almost toppled over.

Ao Yu was frightened, almost kneeling down to beg for mercy.

Chu Yuan, in a very bad mood, looked up at Ao Yu, not understanding why the dragon was trembling so much in the heat.

"Sect Master! I'm so sorry, so sorry!"

Ao Yu hastily said.

"It's fine. Do dragons of your kind fear the heat?"

Chu Yuan asked oddly.

"No, no, ordinary mixed-blood dragons don't fear heat or cold. How could I, a pureblooded Azure Dragon, possibly fear the heat."

Ao Yu quickly explained.

"Then why are you trembling?"

Chu Yuan put down his chopsticks and looked at Ao Yu.

"Nothing, nothing, Sect Master. What is it that you need?"

Ao Yu forced himself to calm down.

How could he say that he was shaking because he was afraid of Chu Yuan?

"Nothing much, sit down. I just wanted someone to talk to,"

Chu Yuan said, with a belly full of grievances he wanted to air.

This time, it was the success of Dantai Luo Xue and the loss of over ten thousand Spirit Stones that was really weighing on him.

Fortunately, Chu Yuan had discovered Luo Xue's success in time before the System started its assessment.

With the System not yet having checked, as long as he expelled Dantai Luo Xue from the sect in time, his own Realm would not be deducted.

Indeed, this was a stroke of luck amidst misfortune.

Ao Yu, sitting beside him, sighed in relief upon hearing this. It wasn't anything serious, just a chat with the Sect Master.

He quickly sat back down.

"You say, Sect Master, what do you want to talk about?"

Ao Yu inquired in an unusually well-behaved manner.

"What do you think, if you were to take an apprentice and you intended to fail at teaching them, how would you go about it?"

Chu Yuan asked thoughtfully.

"Fail at teaching a disciple? Don't you just use your hands for that?"

Ao Yu responded in a rather odd manner.

Upon hearing those words.

Chu Yuan's softening expression once again darkened.

Use your hands? Why does everyone keep saying that??

Forget using his hands, even if he used his hands and feet together, he wouldn't make it!

"Answer properly."

Chu Yuan couldn't really lose his temper, and his voice turned a few shades colder as he spoke.

"Well, that... Sect Master, isn't it very easy to ruin a disciple? When I was at Dragon Mansion, I saw my elder brother take on a disciple, and after he did, he never bothered with him again. Six months later, that disciple couldn't even beat a Prawn Soldier and was completely useless. So, I think free-range raising will ruin them."

Ao Yu thought for a long time before speaking out.

"Free-range raising?"

Chu Yuan raised an eyebrow; he had raised three successful disciples using the free-range method.

"Yes, free-range raising. If no one teaches them, they will certainly be ruined."

Ao Yu replied.

"So, do you think it's better to take on a prodigy or a good-for-nothing to ruin a disciple?"

Chu Yuan stroked his chin, squinting as he said.

"Sect Master, why do we need to find either a prodigy or a good-for-nothing? Is it against the rules to just pick someone at random?"

Ao Yu scratched his head, asking perplexedly.

Upon hearing this.

Boom...

Chu Yuan's head shook violently.

Yes.

Is he stupid??

Why not just find someone at random?

Why bother finding a prodigy or a good-for-nothing??

His original thinking seemed to be that randomly picking someone might turn them into a success.

Now it seemed that whether he chose a wastrel or a prodigy, they were both likely to succeed; picking an ordinary person was the true solution!

To select a commoner and let them grow freely, that was indeed the real way to ruin a disciple!

Chu Yuan had an epiphany.

He had figured out the method to ruin a disciple.

All the depression from Dantai Luo Xue and the loss of tens of thousands of Spirit Stones vanished.

"Not bad, Ao Yu, you've got some skills."

Chu Yuan looked at Ao Yu approvingly.

"You flatter me, Sect Master."

Ao Yu quickly said.

"So you think, if we just pick a random person and then take them as a disciple and let them grow freely, it's easier to ruin them, right?"

Chu Yuan stood up as he spoke.

Ao Yu, seeing Chu Yuan stand up, hurriedly followed suit and after pondering deeply for a while, answered the Sect Master.

"Yes, Sect Master Chu, I think if we randomly pick someone and let them grow without any resources, they definitely won't achieve anything significant."

"If you're still not at ease, you can randomly pick a beggar; if they're a beggar, they're definitely lacking talent, that's even more foolproof."

Ao Yu answered earnestly.

Chu Yuan got more and more excited as he listened.

Not bad.

This dragon.

His brain is working well.

With this method, how could he fail to ruin a disciple?

A beggar is even safer!

"You're quite something, kid."

Chu Yuan patted Ao Yu on the shoulder and headed out.

"Wait for me, Sect Master."

Ao Yu was about to follow when he was stopped by the waiter to settle the bill.

In his haste, Ao Yu threw a Spirit Stone to the waiter.

And tried to follow again.

But the waiter insisted on giving Ao Yu change, which made Ao Yu so anxious, he hurriedly said he didn't need it.

Yet the waiter was unusually honest and said they couldn't accept tips and had to give Ao Yu his change.

It was only after the waiter called out the shopkeeper to give Ao Yu his change that Chu Yuan's figure disappeared.

Ao Yu could only leave the noodle shop to look for Chu Yuan.

Elsewhere.

Having stepped out of the noodle shop, Chu Yuan walked along the streets, scanning around.

By chance, he really did find some beggars.

At the entrance of a rather dark alley, there were dozens of beggars begging.

Chu Yuan's gaze unconsciously fell on one of the smaller figures among the dozens of beggars.

To take a beggar as a disciple!

They would definitely not make it!!!

Thinking this, Chu Yuan's mood became pleasant and excited, and he began to step toward the alley where the beggars were.
