Chapter 1892 Accepting Elder Sun's Offer

"Thank you for the help, Elder Sun," Yuan said shortly after the disciples left.

Elder Sun looked at him and asked, "What are you doing inside the inner court, anyway?"

"I was summoned by Grand Elder Bai."

"I see…" Elder Sun mumbled and stared at him as if she had something to say but wasn't sure if she should.

"What's wrong, Elder Sun?" Yuan asked.

After a moment of silence, Elder Sun spoke with a resolute face, "Want to become my disciple?"

"Eh?" Yuan's eyes widened with genuine surprise. "You want me to be your disciple? Are you serious?"

Elder Sun frowned and asked, "Why are you so surprised? You're acting like I'm not supposed to have a disciple. I may have been working as a protector in the Hunting Grounds, but I am still a sect elder with plenty of qualifications to be a master."

Yuan shook his head, "I don't question your qualifications."

"Then why are you surprised?" "Just cause…?"

Elder Sun sighed, "So, do you accept or not? I know you've refused many sect elders before, so I won't be surprised if you refuse me as well."

Yuan smiled and said, "No, I accept your offer."

He proceeded to bow to her, "This disciple greets Master."

"I don't care much about such formalities. You can just call me Senior Sun."

"Yes, Senior Sun."

Elder Sun retrieved a medallion and handed it to Yuan, saying, "This is proof that you're my disciple. Try not to lose it since I only have one."

Although Elder Sun never intended to accept a disciple, every sect elder was required to have at least one medallion.

"How many contribution points do you have right now? Since you'd spent 2 years in confinement, I doubt you have much. I'll give you five points."

"Actually, I have 25 contribution points, and I am already planning on taking the next Inner Court examination."

"The Inner Court examination already? But you're only—" Elder Sun's raised her eyebrows.

"The Inner Court examination already? But you're only—" Elder Sun's raised her eyebrows.

Then she realized Yuan was already at the third level of Spirit Master.

'Heavens! He was only a Spirit Apprentice not long ago! And he'd even spent 2 years in confinement! What monstrous talents!' she cried inwardly.

"The next Inner Court examination is in three weeks. Let me give you some tips—"

"It's fine, Elder Sun. Just sit back and relax. I know what to expect," Yuan interrupted her with a confident smile.

"Are you sure?"

He nodded.

"Alright. I will contact you before the examination. Here's my communication jade slip."

After handing Yuan her jade slip, Elder Sun left the scene.

"Of course not. You already have Tian Yang, after all."

Seeing Elder Sun frown, Elder Jing quickly added, "Jokes aside, are you thinking about teaching him your family's techniques?"

"No, I don't want to burden him with my family matters. He's incredibly talented—even more than those geniuses back in my family. If he joined my family, the others would definitely try to destroy him."

"I know he's your disciple now, but…" Elder Jing shook her head.

"If you think I am praising him because he's my disciple, wait three weeks."

"Three weeks? What will happen in three—Oh, the Inner Court examination? Wait, but he's only a Spirit Warrior."

"That was two years ago. He's a Spirit Master now."

"Impossible! He was in confinement for two years! There's no way he could've cultivated while in confinement!" Elder Jing exclaimed.

Elder Sun shrugged, "I don't know what else to tell you."

In the blink of an eye, three weeks had passed, and it was time for the Inner Court examination.

The day before the examination, Elder Sun contacted Yuan.

"I'll come pick you up on the day of the examination. Meet me in front of your living quarters," said Elder Sun.

The following day.

"Good luck, Young Master. I can't believe you'd actually managed to qualify for the examination before me despite the two-year gap…" Ji Ran sighed after learning that Yuan would be partaking in the Inner Court examination.
