From a beggar on South Street to the supreme devil

Chapter 91 Stone Crossing
Miscellaneous affairs hall.

After the deacon finished his business, he walked out of the inner hall.

He said to Jiang Chen, "Junior brother Jiang, please wait for a moment. The disciples in the hall are verifying your identity and registering it. It will only take a moment."

Jiang Chen cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother. May I know your name?"

The deacon smiled and said, "My name is Jia Sheng, and I am the deacon of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall."

Jiang Chen then said, "Hello, Senior Brother Jia."

Jia Sheng smiled and waved his hand: "Don't be so restrained, we are all fellow disciples, come on, come in and sit in the room."

As he said that, he led Jiang Chen into the lounge nearby.

In the "Miscellaneous Affairs Hall", other disciples who were waiting to get things done were a little surprised when they saw this.

"When did Deacon Jia become so polite to other disciples?"

"Who is this person?"

"I don't know. It looks like he is a disciple who has just entered the inner sect."

"Haha, their attitudes are so different. When I came to do business, they ignored me, but now they are so nice to a new inner sect disciple and even take him to their room to rest..."

"The man who can make Deacon Jia behave so well must be a genius. We'll know in a few days..."

……

in the lounge.

Jia Sheng looked at Jiang Chen imperceptibly.

Since Elder Shidu and Elder Qian Wenye both think so highly of Jiang Chen and have designated him as their disciple, this person must have something extraordinary.

Jia Sheng sat across from the table, holding a teapot in one hand and starting to make tea. He asked casually, "Junior Brother Jiang looks quite young? I wonder how old you are this year?"

"I am eighteen years old this year."

Only eighteen years old?

Jia Sheng was slightly stunned.

After ordinary people start practicing martial arts, their bodies gradually become stronger, and as their martial arts skills improve, the immaturity on their faces will also be washed away.

There is not much difference in appearance between a warrior of eighteen or nineteen and a warrior in his twenties.

It is difficult to judge a person's true age based on their face.

However, age can be easily determined by simply checking, or by high-level warriors touching the bones.

Jiang Chen shouldn't lie in such a place.

If this is true, then Jiang Chen's talent is indeed good...

Lou Xusheng, the current number one talent in the inner sect, was only eighteen years old when he entered the inner sect.

Now, two years later, I have reached the state of Iron Bones Perfection.

With Jiang Chen's talent, perhaps after Lou Xusheng breaks through the Zhuzang and leaves the inner sect, he will have the hope of taking over the title of the inner sect's number one genius.

No wonder Elder Shi Du and Elder Qian Wenye both wanted to "predetermine" and take Jiang Chen under their wing...

Being able to reach the Iron Bone Realm at this age, he can almost be said to be a potential future leader of the Dragon Elephant Sect.

Thinking of this, Jia Sheng's expression became even gentler.

It doesn't matter how the two elders argue, it has nothing to do with me.

All I have to do is make friends with this future genius in advance.

At this time, the tea in hand has been prepared.

Jia Sheng then poured Jiang Chen a cup of tea and handed it to him.

"Brother, have some tea."

"Thank you, Brother Jia."

Jiang Chen took the tea, took a sip, and felt a little strange.

Jia Sheng's attitude towards me is a bit too nice.

Are all the inner sect deacons so amiable?
Afterwards, Jia Sheng did not leave, but continued chatting with Jiang Chen.

"The origin of this tea is not ordinary. It is called Purple Tongue Fragrance. It is a tea planted by our Dragon Tiger Sect's inner sect in a forest. Drinking it can strengthen bones and muscles and replenish qi and blood. This one or two ounces of tea is worth one or two ounces of gold..."

At this time.

"Dong dong dong..."

There was a knock on the lounge door.

Jia Sheng immediately realized something, quickly stood up, walked to the door, and respectfully opened it. Sure enough, there stood outside the door a sixty-year-old man in brocade clothes, who was the inner sect elder of the Dragon Tiger Sect, Shi Du.

"Elder Ishidu."

Jia Sheng said respectfully.

But Ishiwatari just looked at him coldly, his expression unchanged.

This kid, someone was trying to snatch my disciple from me, but he didn't tell me in advance and told me only at the last minute.

Moreover, he also informed Qian Wenye...

Qian Wenye is in charge of the Merit Hall and has a lot of resources. I'm not sure I can compete with him...

If I had known this earlier, I should have gone to the outer city earlier and accepted Jiang Chen into my sect!

Fortunately, Qian Wenye hasn't arrived yet, so I still have a chance.

Ishidu snorted coldly and stepped directly into the room.

Jia Sheng naturally knew why Shi Du was angry, but there was nothing he could do about it...

He could only put on a smile and stand obediently by the door. After Shi Du entered the room, he wisely retreated and closed the door.

Ishidu entered the room, and his unhappy expression suddenly turned into a cheerful one.

Jiang Chen's mouth twitched when he saw this, and he quickly took a sip of tea, stood up, bowed and said, "Elder Shi."

He could probably guess what the situation was.

It must be that Elder Shidu also took a liking to me and wanted to take me in as his disciple.

"Ah."

Shi Du nodded and looked at Jiang Chen in front of him with a gentle expression. He was very satisfied with him.

Last time at Longhu Road, he knew that Jiang Chen was very talented.

I originally thought that Jiang Chen would need about half a year to break through to the Iron Bone Minor Success, but I didn't expect it to be so fast...

A good seedling indeed.

Thinking of this, Shi Du smiled and said, "Jiang Chen, you haven't become my disciple yet, right?"

"How about I teach you from now on?"

Jiang Chen: "Uh..."

Old Man Feng has been very kind to me, and now that I have already promised him, it is not easy to go back on my word.

Jiang Chen thought for a moment and said, "Thank you, Elder Shi, for your kindness, but I already have a master."

"Yes?"

Ishiwatari was stunned for a moment.

"who is it?"

Someone actually got there first and tricked this guy away?
Jiang Chen said: "It's Feng..."

He had just said two words when he was stuck, his face a little stiff.

Shit, I don't know what Old Man Feng's name is...

Ishiwatari looked at him and asked, "You don't even know his name?"

It turned out to be a last-minute trick!
He waved his hand: "It doesn't count before the apprenticeship ceremony. Why don't you talk to me first and then make a decision? How about that?"

Jiang Chen thought about it, then nodded and said, "Okay."

After all, the elder wanted to take me in as his disciple, which was a sign of kindness and care. It would be bad to offend him on the spot, so I had to listen.

Shi Du nodded in satisfaction, then sat down in the seat where Jia Sheng had originally sat, added some tea to Jiang Chen, and poured himself a cup of tea.

Then he said, "Do you know where the resources for the inner disciples come from?"

Jiang Chen thought for a moment and replied, "Merit?"

He knew that in the inner sect of the Dragon and Tiger Sect, resources were purchased from the Merit Hall through merit.

Ishiwatari nodded: "Yes, but not entirely."

"Merit can be exchanged for most resources, but not all resources."

"Some rare resources are in extremely limited quantities. It is impossible to meet the needs of every inner disciple. We can only select the most outstanding disciples to distribute them."

"This kind of selection is also called 'trial'."
