Elf: I'm Just a Commentator

Although Lin Xuan had only been an apprentice at Jinhui Martial Arts Academy for a short time, he could tell that Luo Guan truly regarded him as a disciple, which was why he cared so much about this matter.

After hearing Lin Xuan's explanation, Luo Guan remained silent for a moment. He knew that Lin Xuan couldn't stay behind him forever, so he could only nod. After thinking for a moment, he said:

"Actually, regarding Reimu's Research Institute... I personally believe there won't be any problems."

"Eh?"

Lin Xuan looked up, not quite understanding what Luo Guan meant, and Luo Guan quickly began to explain.

"It's just my own feeling. After all, I haven't had much contact with Reimu's research institute. Since you've taken on most of the work... I'll leave it to you. But if you encounter any trouble, just come to me or your mentor."

In Luo Guan's view, he and Qin Guan were Lin Xuan's strongest support.

Okay, even if I were to remove myself, it wouldn't be a problem. With Luo Guan around, it's unlikely that anyone would dare to mess with Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan nodded, and Luo Guan didn't ask any more questions about it. He really didn't know much about the Lingmeng Research Institute, so Lin Xuan had to handle the rest herself.

"Oh, by the way, since you're here, there's something I can do for you while we're at it, right?"

"Eh?"

Although Luo Guan seemed to be using a question, Lin Xuan felt that if she wanted to refuse... it might be a bit difficult.

But I just wanted to talk about that matter!

But there was nothing Lin Xuan could do; Luo Guan had already brought it up, so she had no choice but to agree.

"Please tell me what it is!"

"It's actually very simple, it's just what you do best—combat!"

"what?"

Lin Xuan was completely bewildered, but after seeing the rare smile on Luo Guan's lips, he realized that he was very likely to be tricked.

"Anyway, you still have several days before you leave, right? In the past few days, your Gyarados and Gallade have learned a lot. You can go back and digest it properly in the future."

Seeing the disbelieving expression still on Lin Xuan's face, Luo Guan finally continued:

"Don't worry, it won't be difficult for you to collect it."

Lin Xuan could stay here for three more days, and Luo Guan felt it was necessary to make use of his remaining value.

The only thing that made Lin Xuan happy was that it seemed that it wasn't just him who suffered this time; Bai Yao and Liu Quan were in the same boat, suffering the same fate as Lin Xuan.

When the time came, Luo Guan finally told Lin Xuan what he needed to do this time.

Chapter 539 Assessment

"Is that all there is to it?"

Lin Xuan glanced at Bai Yao and Liu Quan to the side and said, "I really didn't expect Luo Guan to call me over for something like this. It's really pointless!"

"There's nothing we can do. It's time to recruit apprentices. Our dojo needs to recruit students, and apart from special cases like yours, we usually recruit at fixed times. This is the time now."

Liu Quan explained to Lin Xuan, "That's right, Luo Guan's task for them is to carefully select new apprentices."

However, the number of spots was quite limited. Lin Xuan only glanced at it briefly and found that there were five hundred people participating in the apprentice recruitment this time.

This is even after the initial screening. Without the previous screening, there might have been several times more, or even more.

Even Lin Xuan didn't expect there to be so many people.

"Actually, there weren't this many people before. It's mainly because you're too famous."

Liu Quan said somewhat helplessly that he had been at Jinhui Martial Arts Academy for a long time. Although there were many people who wanted to become his apprentices before, none of them had reached this level.

Most of them are locals from the province or even Jinhui City.

Many talented and skilled trainers still prefer to attend prestigious universities like Imperial University.

Furthermore, the requirements for Jin Hui Dojo are quite stringent, with a greater preference for recruiting Fighting-type trainers.

But how many new trainers are there?

However, there is one thing to note: there is no age limit for the apprentices. If you are confident in yourself, you can even come before you finish elementary school.

Bai Yao joined Jinhui Dojo around this time, but her situation was a bit more special.

She and Lin Xuan are somewhat similar, but also quite different.

She was specially recruited because Luo Guan took a liking to her, but Lin Xuan was someone who practically offered herself up; it would be foolish not to accept her.

Bai Yao's performance in recent years also proves that Luo Guan's judgment was indeed very good.

"So why are we doing this kind of thing?"

Lin Xuan's lips twitched and he said that in his opinion, if it was just about selecting apprentices, then some ordinary disciples would be enough. Why did he need the three of them?

Moreover, Lin Xuan remembered that during the time when she first came to Jinhui Dojo, there was no such thing, right?

"That means you simply missed it. Our recruitment time isn't very fixed. Sometimes we feel that there are too many apprentices in the dojo, so we won't recruit any more."

Bai Yao finally said, "It's just like some universities."

It's quite common for schools to forcibly change students' dormitories from six-person rooms to eight-person rooms when they clearly don't have enough rooms and are unwilling to spend money to build more.

However, compared to other universities, Jin Hui Dojo has very strict admission requirements, but the benefits seem to be better than those of Imperial University.

At least they are all individual dormitories, which shows that Jinhui Martial Arts Academy is indeed wealthy. Even without Master Qin Guan, it still has hundreds of years of heritage here.

"This kind of thing is usually handled by the strongest disciple of each generation. Before you came, it was Bai Yao who did it. Now... it's your turn."

Liu Quan glanced at Lin Xuan, then added:

"Actually, it should have been your turn a long time ago, but your strength has long surpassed ours. However, in the past year, you have been able to perfectly avoid the apprentice recruitment every time. I used to suspect that you knew about this and deliberately avoided it."

Lin Xuan was speechless. She had no idea about this at all! How could she possibly avoid it?

But there was no other way; he had already promised Luo Guan, so he could only go in with Bai Yao and the others.

"It's alright, it's alright. Actually, these kinds of things are quite interesting. You'll discover the fun after experiencing them a few more times!"

Bai Yao raised an eyebrow at Lin Xuan and said something that left Lin Xuan completely bewildered.

But as soon as they stepped outside, they saw a long line of countless prospective apprentices stretching out of the dojo.

"Hey! If you haven't reached your number yet, go inside and rest. We'll let you know when it's your turn!"

Bai Yao shouted loudly outside, mainly because he also needed to give the apprentices some time to rest.

"So, how many people did the teacher say we needed to recruit?"

Watching Bai Yao call out skillfully, Lin Xuan cautiously asked Liu Quan, who then directly held up five fingers.

Fifty? That many?

Liu Quan rolled his eyes after hearing this.

"Do you think that's possible? If they recruited this many apprentices every time, Jinhui Martial Arts Academy would be full by now! It's five!"

"So many talented people, and you need five of them?"

"There's nothing we can do; that's just how our dojo recruits students."

Liu Quan shrugged. The original difficulty wasn't that high. Wasn't that thanks to Lin Xuan?

This directly boosted the popularity of Jinhui Taekwondo Academy.

So when people talk about this in Jinhui City recently, some might complain that originally there were only two or three hundred people competing for five spots, but now the number of spots has doubled.

Who can bear this?

After Lin Xuan came out, many people at the scene recognized him immediately.

After all, a large part of them were attracted by Lin Xuan!

"Mr. Mimikyu! Look here!"

"Senior Brother Lin Xuan!"

When will you update, Mr. Mimikyu?

"There's even a live stream!"

Liu Quan originally thought Lin Xuan would be annoyed by these offline urgings for updates, but he didn't expect that the way Lin Xuan acted was as if he had completely blocked out these voices.

She was still greeting the people around her enthusiastically, but Liu Quan wondered if it was just her imagination, but it seemed like all the people Lin Xuan was greeting were girls!

Moreover, Liu Quan felt that Lin Xuan's aesthetic sense was quite compatible with his own. Several of the girls were indeed very beautiful, especially one of them... what a huge Poké Ball!

"Hey, senior brother, what are you looking at?"

Bai Yao had already announced the end of the meeting. She turned around and saw Liu Quan looking at the instructions. Following his gaze, her face darkened.

"Senior brother, haven't you been away from the dojo for too long? You seem a little..."

"No, no, I was just curious about what Lin Xuan was looking at!"

After Bai Yao discovered his behavior, Liu Quan naturally denied it, and Lin Xuan once again became the scapegoat. Bai Yao's gaze immediately turned to Lin Xuan, while Lin Xuan had just turned her gaze away and then placed it on the same part of Bai Yao's body.

Even Lin Xuan herself didn't realize that she had subconsciously shaken her head.

"Stop embarrassing yourselves here!"

Although Luo Guan was somewhat unwilling to be told such things by Bai Yao, it seemed that he really had no choice but to go in.
