<h4>Chapter 455 - Destinations of the Three</h4>
Ling Ziwei didn’t know these pce masters very well yet. Naturally, she couldn’t make a decision easily. Moreover, this Fallen Soul Pce Master had an odd appearance. He looked like a five or six-year-old child, and his temperament was entric, which made her feel a little hesitant.
Then, the Frigid Ice Pce Master opened her mouth: “Ling Ziwei, does your constitution have an affinity for the water attribute?”
Ling Ziwei lightly nodded her beautiful head: “Yes.”
The Frigid Ice Pce Master said: “Do you wish to enter my pce hall?”
Ling Ziwei startled again.
The Frigid Ice Pce Master was a beautiful woman who seemed cold and morous. Because she was a woman, Ling Ziwei naturally felt slightly biased toward her, but this beautiful woman had a sharp and fierce countenance. It looked like she wasn’t easy to get along with. This simrly made Ling Ziwei feel a type of restraining fear in her heart. She didn’t dare to make a rash decision.
After fruitlessly pondering, she turned her head to nce at Gongyi Tianheng with an inquiring look.
Tianheng smiled, but didn’t respond.
Ling Ziwei was slightly disappointed, but she also knew that, when it came to matters of apprenticeship, it wasn’t good to let others decide.
On the contrary, it was the Blood Transformation Pce Master who spoke up: “Whoever gives you the identity of a personal disciple is the one you should go with.”
Hearing this, Ling Ziwei clenched her teeth. First, she bowed to the Frigid Ice Pce Master, and paid her respects: “Many thanks for the high regard, pce master.” Soon after, she walked in front of that child-like figure, and earnestly saluted, “This Ling Ziwei wishes to apprentice under the Fallen Soul Pce Hall. Would this master please take her in?”
The Fallen Soul Pce Master let out a shrillugh: “Good, good, good! Apprentice Ziwei, it’ll be easy for you to be this master’s disciple. You couldn’t have made a better choice! Once you enter this master’s pce hall, you can study the ultimate skill Three Tunes of the Heavenly Soul. If this master isn’t mistaken, you have already obtained the inheritance of the Moon Siren Body. At that time, when you do battle with someone, you can sing the three tunes and dance with the siren’s charm. With thebination of song and dance, it will be impossible for anyone to escape from your grasp!”
Ling Ziwei listened to this, and her face revealed a happy expression.
To be honest, when all was said and done, her Moon Siren Body was still too unorthodox. If she really had to deal with men the way Human King Yan Ruo did back then, she truly wasn’t willing. But now, she would have the Three Tunes of the Heavenly Soul to make up for herck ofbat power. She was especially happy, and had heartfelt respect for the Fallen Soul Pce Master.
Seeing her disy, the Fallen Soul Pce Master was also extremely happy. Right away, he spoke a sentence: “This venerable one shall bring his apprentice away!”
After he finished speaking, he lifted his small hand, and an invisible power swept up Ling Ziwei. After that, his figure also turned half-corporeal like a virtual image. In the blink of an eye, he vanished from sight along with Ling Ziwei!
The ones left behind were the remaining five pce masters.
The Frigid Ice Pce Master was refused, but one couldn’t tell if she cared from her expression. She turned to face Xi Shuangyun, and asked again: “Are you willing to be my apprentice?”
At the same time, the Jade Ocean Pce Master and Howling Wind Pce Master looked at her, and asked the same question: “Are you willing to be my apprentice?”
All of a sudden, Xi Shuangyun had three peopleing to inquire about her. It was seriously somewhat overwhelming to be favored by one’s superiors.
However, because of the suffering she endured for many years, she was able to remain more cool-headed than Ling Ziwei. She also knew what she herself needed. Based on the honorific titles of the three pce masters, she roughly guessed what ultimate knowledge the three pce halls were rted to. And like Ling Ziwei, her own constitution had an affinity to water...
Speaking of which, the Frigid Ice Pce Hall and the Jade Ocean Pce Hall should’ve been more suitable for her than the Howling Wind Pce Hall. In addition, the two pce masters were both women. Yet, Xi Shuangyun understood even more that, apart from body attributes,patible temperaments and body cultivation methods were standards for making a decision, too.
Of course, the three pce masters also valued her Heavenly Heart Body. Being able to peek into other people’s minds was an excellent auxiliary ability during battle.
For a short while, Xi Shuangyun had a hard time choosing. After pondering deeply, she asked: “Would these three pce masters be able to talk about the characteristics of their ultimate knowledge that can be passed down?”
Once these words were uttered, the three pce masters were also somewhat surprised.
The Howling Wind Pce Master said: “You actually have some guts.”
The Frigid Ice Pce Master’s expression hardened.
The Jade Ocean Pce Master’s smiling expression still appeared gentle and sweet-tempered.
Immediately following this, the three pce masters really gave her a recounting of the characteristics of the three types of ultimate knowledge.
What the Howling Wind Pce Hall’s Wind Dragon Nine Transformations required was speed, intrigue, and ferocity. It could be said that attacks and agility went hand in hand. It was to the point that even its defenses weren’t weak. It was considered a kind of ultimate knowledge that was rtivelyprehensive in all aspects.
The might of the Frigid Ice Pce Hall’s Heaven and Earth Frost Cage was very formidable. It required that the practitioner was unswervingly determined and could endure the ruthless cold. After practicing it, one could freeze the surrounding space, which was extremely terrifying. However, although the attack power was strong, it was usually used for killing on a massive scale.
Next was the Jade Ocean Pce Hall’s Life Seizing Imperial Ocean. It focused on the brutality and tyranny of the great ocean. It needed a martial artist’s thoughts to be fearsome and unshakable. There had to be an extremely vast atmosphere, and it was also grandiose and majestic. With suppressive force, attack and defense were integrated. However, it could only exhibit the best results when facingrge quantities of enemies.
After she finished listening, Xi Shuangyun’s brows furrowed, and she pondered for a moment. Atst, she made a decision.
She slowly passed by the two pce masters, and walk before the Howling Wind Pce Master. She gracefully bowed down: “This disciple thanks these two pce masters for their kind intentions, but...
“This disciple greets master.”
The Howling Wind Pce Master’s somewhat haggard features revealed a smiling expression: “Not bad. You have good eyesight.”
At once, he swooped her up, and brought her away.
The Frigid Ice Pce Master was a little unhappy. She flicked her sleeve, transformed into a gust of icy frost, and disappeared.
The Jade Ocean Pce Master lightly sighed: “What a pity. No luck at all.”
Then, she turned into a body of clear, jade-green water, and dispersed.
The skills of these pce masters were only slightly revealed, but it already caused people to sigh in amazement. They couldn’t help but apud in their hearts.
Now, the apprenticeship of two new disciples had been settled.
Finally, only Huang Ji remained.
The fact that Huang Ji was left behind wasn’t because no one fought over him. Rather, he modestly let the women go first. At this moment, those people came over. The Ardent Earth Pce Master and the Red Sands Pce Master appeared on Huang Ji’s left and right.
The Red Sands Pce Master was gentle and mild: “You have an affinity for the earth attribute, which suits the cultivation method of my Traceless Sand Treading. Are you willing to be my apprentice?”
This school of ultimate knowledge was a rare body technique. After learning it, one’s body was like a ghostly demon, and as light as airborne sand or dust. This was another unusually frightening skill.
Huang Ji faced the Red Sands Pce Master, and faintly shook his head.
As far as he was concerned, what he wanted to learn wasn’t a body lightening technique.
Meanwhile, the expression on the Ardent Earth Pce Master’s face was somewhat conflicted. At this time, he scratched his head: “This girl’s attribute is suitable and her constitution is also appropriate, but my pce hall is full of crude and vulgar men. If I ept you, I’m afraid you won’t be able to endure the suffering. But if I don’t ept you, I also won’t be reconciled with letting such a talented and beautiful prodigy go.”
Just as he finished speaking, Huang Ji showed a puzzled look: “This younger generation is a man. Why does this pce master have such thoughts?”
Originally, after the Red Sands Pce Master was refused, he was about to leave right away. At this time, he suddenly heard Huang Ji’s statement, and his body, which was going to turn into grains of red sand, immediately stopped changing: “You said—a man?”
His heart was astonished, and he couldn’t help wondering. Could he have lost his eyes? But when he took a closer look, this Huang Ji in front of him was still a woman.
The Ardent Earth Pce Master’s expression also became peculiar: “A man? My eyes aren’t wrong. How could you be a man? You’re obviously a woman through and through!”
Huang Ji was actually used to being misgendered by other people. Although he still received these kind of questions in Ten Ultimates Sect, he resolutely said: “This younger generation is a man, not a woman. These two pce masters, please see this clearly.”
The Ardent Earth and Red Sands Pce Masters were somewhat stumped for words.
No matter how clearly they looked, regardless of what special abilities or identification techniques they used, she was still a woman!
However, although the two pce masters were sure that Huang Ji was a woman, with their identities, how could they still argue with a younger generation inside this pce hall whether she was a man or a woman?
This behavior was unbefitting of them.
Huang Ji was quite obstinate. He said that he was a man, so he was certainly a man! Let alone that these pce masters doubted his gender. Even if it was a greater emperor ranked cultivator, which hadn’t been seen on the Central Continent for countless years, who suddenly appeared right in front of him, he would still be a man!
Upon seeing this, Tianheng couldn’t help inwardly chuckling. However, he understood Huang Ji’s willfulness, and stepped forward to help him out: “Senior Sect Brother Huang, wouldn’t it be better to first ask about the Ardent Earth Pce Hall’s ultimate knowledge?”
Then, he exined to the two pce masters: “Senior Sect Brother Huang has been a man since birth. Previously, in another sect, there were countless youngdies who trailed after him like mandarin ducks. Their adoration and admiration for him was endless.”
The expressions of the two pce masters promptly changed.
They were also knowledgable of many extraordinary things. Now that they heard Tianheng’s words, it could be considered that they understood. In any case, even though Huang Ji was clearly a woman, he himself and his old friends all acknowledged that he was a man. Moreover, the targets of his admiration were also women...
The Ardent Earth Pce Master was arge man with straightforward thoughts, so he didn’t talk excessively at this time. He only said: “The ultimate knowledge of my Ardent Earth Pce Hall is the Eight Points Suppressing Prison. Strength lies within the physical body, and the core is centered around battle. Fight, fight, fight! Kill, kill, kill! Only through boundless suffering can one gain supreme might! Ordinary people practicing this cultivation method will find it unbearable. Do you still want to learn it?”
When Huang Ji heard the first line, his eyes were already gleaming. After he finished listening, he answered without the slightest hesitation: “This suits my tastes. I want to learn!”
The Ardent Earth Pce Master’s mood was peculiar. He used a finger to scratch the side of his face: “Well... First, you’ll go to my pce hall and learn. If you can’t hold on, how about going to the Red Sands Pce Hall?”
The Red Sands Pce Master nced at the Ardent Earth Pce Master. Although he was refused, he still cherished talent: “If it’s like this, no matter when Student Huang Jies, my Red Sands Pce Hall will wee him.”
Huang Ji cupped his fist: “Many thanks!”
