Jiang Ling’s curiosity burned brightly. “Such a ferocious display of lightning…
and it’s just a minor power in your arsenal? That… that incredible?”
Surprise colored her features. After all, her world revolved around SkyplCity and a few surrounding towns at most. Lu Yu’s display, though just a glimpse of his true power, was a force far beyond anything she’d ever witnessed.
A mixture of admiration and astonishment danced in her bright eyes as she gazed at Lu Yu. “Master! From this day forward, I am your disciple!” In a flurry of excitement, she rushed toward him and wrapped her arms around his waist. “Master! You’re my master now!”
Lu Yu was momentarily stunned by her sudden embrace. “You sure changed your mind quick!”
Oblivious to his slight discomfort, Jiang Ling continued excitedly, “Master!
Should we hold a grand ceremony to celebrate my acceptance as your disciple? Let the entire city know that you are my master!”
“There’s no need for such a spectacle,” Lu Yu replied, attempting to calm her down. “Consider this a successful apprenticeship for now.”
“But shouldn’t we inform your father?”
“Of course!” Jiang Ling’s excitement was so infectious that she couldn’t contain herself. Ignoring any semblance of decorum, she bolted toward her father’s study in long strides.

The middle-aged man, Jiang Huaian, stopped his writing mid-stroke and raised his head inquiringly. “Xiaoling, are you in trouble again?”
“Not at all, Dad! I just took on a master! A very strong master! He cto acceptas his student. He must have recognized my immense talent!” She boasted with a hint of self-importance.
Jiang Huaian’s brow furrowed. “You took on a master? And in such a short time? You can be so picky when choosing boyfriends, yet you’re so nonchalant about finding a master?”
“But Dad, he’s truly incredible! If I bechis disciple, I’ll undoubtedly learn so much!”
“Alright, alright, ” Jiang Huaian conceded. “Letmeet this master of yours and assess his capabilities.”
Rising from his seat, he quickly exited the study and followed the garden path, finding Lu Yu waiting patiently under Jiang Ling’s enthusiastic guidance.
Jiang Huaian approached Lu Yu and bluntly stated, “You’re the one claiming to be my daughter’s new master?”
“That’s correct,” Lu Yu confirmed, extending a hand in greeting. “My nis
Jiang Huaian grasped his hand firmly. “I am Jiang Huaian, Jiang Ling’s father.”
“It’s a pleasure to meet you,” Lu Yu responded.
Jiang Huaian cut straight to the chase without wasting any ton pleasantries. “Frankly, I don’t care about your name. Let’s just get this over with. If you want to be my daughter’s master, the requirements will be quite demanding.”
“I understand your protectiveness towards Jiang Ling,” Lu Yu replied calmly. “If you have doubts about my abilities, we can settle this with a spar.”
A derisive laugh escaped Jiang Huaian’s lips. “Spar with me? You have quite an inflated ego, young man. In all of SkyplCity, there are few who can match my strength. You certainly possess a lot of bravado!”
“In that case, let’s test each other’s strength. Come, showwhat you’ve got!”
Walking toward Lu Yu, Jiang Huaian proposed, “Let’s keep it simple. A direct clash of fists. Whoever can’t withstand the impact loses. If your strength falls short of mine, then I see no reason for you to be my daughter’s teacher.” “Agreed,” Lu Yu stated, a confident glint in his eyes. “Let’s begin.”
Lu Yu assumed a fighting stance, his fists clenched. He wouldn’t need his formidable Dragon Claw form against this opponent. Unleashing its full power could be disastrous, potentially crushing Jiang Huaian with his Diamond Dragon Claw.
Jiang Huaian mirrored Lu Yu’s pose, his own fist coiled with power. A fierce wind roared as he launched his attack, his speed blurring into an almost imperceptible afterimage. It was a ferocious punch, clearly beyond the capabilities of an ordinary man.
Witnessing the blow, Jiang Ling’s eyes widened in apprehension as she fixated on Lu Yu.
Undeterred, Lu Yu met the attack head-on with a seemingly simple punch of his own.
A resounding boom erupted as their fists collided. Yet, the expected explosive exchange never materialized. Instead, a muffled thud resonated as Jiang Huaian was sent flying backward. He careened through the flowerbed, tumbling for over ten meters before coming to a crumpled heap amongst the blooms.
Dazed and disoriented, it took a moment for Jiang Huaian to regain his senses. He gingerly raised a hand to his head and slowly pushed himself upright.
Jiang Ling’s gaze darted between her father and Lu Yu, disbelief etched on her face. She had witnessed the power behind Lu Yu’s punch, yet she couldn’t sense an ounce of aura emanating from him. His strength was an enigma.
Finally regaining his composure, Jiang Huaian staggered a few steps before collapsing back to the ground. He struggled to sit up, holding his head in pain, as he addressed Lu Yu. “Y-you… the power in that strike…”
“It is undeniable,” he conceded, gasping for breath. “Even the most celebrated experts in SkyplCity might struggle to match yours.”

“With such immense strength, why choose my daughter as your disciple? Your motivations puzzle me.”
Lu Yu took a measured step towards Jiang Huaian. “My goals are straightforward. Taking her on as a student serves to expand my own influence.’
“Perhaps you are unaware,” he continued, his voice dropping to a low murmur, “but I am not from this land. Not only am I no citizen of SkyplCity, I hail from beyond the Ten Thousand Dragon Kingdom.”
“Here, I stand alone, devoid of allies or any significant force.”
“Therefore, by taking Jiang Ling under my wing, I gain a foothold and a connection. Should her future hold prosperity and power, her loyalty as my disciple will remain.”
A contemplative silence descended upon them. Finally, Jiang Huaian spoke, a hint of understanding in his voice. “I see. Your reasoning is sound. I have no objection to Jiang Ling following you.” He took a deep breath and approached
Lu Yu further.
“But enlighten me,” he requested. “What path do you envision for her development?”
“I propose she enlist in the Ten Thousand Dragon Kingdom’s hunting team,” Lu Yu explained. “There, she can establish herself and climb the ranks. With tand merit, she could potentially ascend to a position within the Imperial
Family.”
“Such a trajectory holds promise,” Jiang Huaian conceded. “Daughter, what are your thoughts?”
Jiang Ling met Lu Yu’s gaze, her eyes gleaming with determination. “Lu Yu’s power is undeniable. Becoming his disciple is an opportunity I cannot refuse. While the hunting team doesn’t particularly appeal to me, I am willing to accept it.”
“If your guidance helpsevolve into a formidable warrior,” she vowed, bowing deeply to Lu Yu, “my eternal gratitude is yours.”
Lu Yu acknowledged her bow with a slight nod. “Welcome, disciple. When tpermits, I will guide you in your cultivation.”
A radiant smile spread across Jiang Ling’s face. “Wonderful! You can even stay with us! Our manor boasts the utmost luxury. You’d have the most opulent room at your disposal, and of course, daily lessons!” She exclaimed, brimming with enthusiasm and hope for the future under Lu Yu’s tutelage..
