Fairy Xiuyu weakly raised her voice to echo in the grand hall, "This young man may be a country pumpkin and he doesn't know the rule. We should give him a chance."

Ji Yuan frowned silently; I will be a country pumpkin?!

Fairy Anyang warned him, "This beautiful sister is trying to help you. You've better not screw this one and only chance or you will be out of this trial."

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

He muttered weakly, "Now I know why Senior Mo Bei had failed his trial three times…"

With great reluctant, Ji Yuan pretended to say. "Who says I am not going to prostrate in front of Grand Patriarch? It is just that I feel that kowtowing isn't enough to show my sincerity…."

As he said that, he had lain flat on the ground to say, "This should be the proper way to show my proper respects."

But silently he was saying; Li Ye, you don't mind if I hit you a few times until you prostrate in front of me when we meet later? I know this isn't your fault but I need to get my infuriating rage out of my heart…

Many of the wannabe cultivators and mortal cultivators were actually cursing Ji Yuan silently; bootlicker…

Fairy Xiuyu said quietly, "He isn't disrespectful but maybe because this is his first time so he is a little awe of the celestial protocols."

Elder Dong quickly said, "Right, right."

He quickly agreed with Elder Qiu Xiuyu because he did not want her or anyone to remind him that he had just called her an idiot for recruiting Number 44044.

He secretly swore to take 'special care' of this Ji Yuan after this ceremony for causing him to be in such an awkward position.

Fairy Xiuyu suddenly turned to the other elders to raise her hands politely, "I have a special request. I will like to make this new recruit my special protégé."

When she had said that, all the elders and all the others were shocked.

"This…"

"It is not proper…"

"He doesn't even have any spirit root…"

"What does Elder Xiuyu means by making him a 'special protégé'?"

Even Ji Yuan was startled that this beautiful maiden was going to make him her special protégé.

He began to smile bitterly; surely she isn't this petty and wants to extract a personal vendetta on me for calling her an idiot. Woman…

But Fairy Xiuyu was actually not thinking of this. She had made this bold request because she was afraid that Ji Yuan may be bullied by Elder Dong by offending him on his first day. She knew that the lives of the new recruits won't be easy.

Moreover there was something in Ji Yuan that seemed to attract her attention…

An old elder in purple attire stood up as he stammered, "Elder Qiu. This young man here doesn't even have any spiritual root. He won't become even a good cultivator. If Elder Qiu wants a protégé then I can help to select a worthy female recruit from among the five hundred new cultivators that we have recruited today."

Fairy Xiuyu frowned lightly, "Female recruit? Is there a rule in the True Origin Celestial Sect that I must only have a female recruit? I seem to remember that a protégé master is free to select both male and female protégés as core protégés. Don't forget that I am the only protégé and only female protégé of our Grand Patriarch."

Ji Yuan rubbed his chin to ponder; This Li Ye sure is lecherous. How can he leave such a beautiful maiden behind to ascend to the Celestial Realm…

But secretly he was impressed because it was only proper that a protégé master and his protégés had a clean relationship. He had never thought that he would have fallen in love with Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan, both who were his core protégés.

In the past, he had kept a proper distance between them and he had never known that they had secretly idolized him.

He had actually thought that he was not a good protégé grandmaster because he was rarely seen even in his own sect most of the time and preferred that that his protégés had the ability to fend for themselves.

When he had met Fairy Ye Chengxi again a hundred years later after his breakthrough attempt, she had long succeeded him as the new protégé grandmaster of the Orthodox Sword Sect.

He had thought that she was not able to able to recognize him and he was glad that she was able to be independent now.

His original intention was just to help her secretly before searching the celestial fraternity to look for Jiajia. But he had never thought that he would meet Jiajia so soon as his next door enemy and also, he had ended up taking Fairy Ye Chengxi and Shangguan Yan as his main consorts.

From that point onward, his world of celibacy had taken a sudden turn.

It was later that he had learnt from Ling Feiyue and Xue Qianxue that he had a reputation as a gay due to his rejections of numerous beautiful maidens and that was why Jiajia was probably testing if he was truly a gay.

He was rendered completely speechless by their assumptions.

He just had a sad past from Little Princess and Jian Yuluo that had caused him to avoid the beautiful maidens.

But after he had resolved his heart demons with Little Princess and Jian Yuluo, he no longer abstains from his celibacy anymore.

The conversations between Fairy Xiuyu and the old cultivator continued, "Grand Elder Li Yimo, he may be an unpolished gem and hence that is the reason why I am taking him to be my core protégé."

Grand Elder Li Yimo said sarcastically, "A person without any spirit root will never amount to anything good."

"But did you see the way he has caught hold of Elder Dong's fist?" Fairy Xiuyu pointed out. "He is nimble enough."

Grand Elder Li Yimo laughed, "This doesn't prove anything and only proves that Elder Dong is being lenient toward him or else do you really think that he can really catch hold of Elder Dong's fist?"

Ji Yuan frowned silently; I can also catch of hold of your little brother and kick you out of this grand hall anytime…

Fairy Xiuyu firmly said, "My mind is firmly made up. This Ji Yuan is not going to be just my special protégé but my core protégé as well. I am going to impart to him all my profound skills."

Grand Elder Li Yimo: …

All the elders: …

All the cultivators…

All the newly recruits: …

The elders and cultivators of the True Origin Celestial Sect were all taken by surprise by Fairy Xiuyu. It was because she had never been this insistent before and had never argued with any elders before. But today, she was openly defying all the elders to take Ji Yuan as her core protégé.

As Grand Elder Li Yimo knew of her special status in the True Origin Celestial Sect and he was also willing to give her the face, he began to sigh softly. "This Ji Yuan is indeed so lucky to have the most beautiful fairy in the True Origin Celestial Sect as his protégé master."

Then he turned to Ji Yuan to say, "From today onward, Elder Qiu will be your protégé master. After the ceremony is over, you can join her in her abode."

But something about Ji Yuan made him uneasy so he raised his voice to warn Ji Yuan, "You must remember to show your protégé master due respect at all times, never have any impure thoughts about your protégé master and treat your protégé master like your parents."

Ji Yuan had already cast the warning out of his mind the minute as he turned to look at Fairy Xiuyu. He was already thinking; I have such a beautiful protégé master…

Fairy Anyang muttered to Xiang Li, "He is definitely not paying attention to anything else except his lower body."

Xiang Li giggled, "Isn't this good anyway?"

Fairy Anyang: …
