I Have A Disciple Simulator

Chapter 111: Chapter ill Son of Fortune

“Han Xuan, I am Zhao Wuyan, an Elder of Zhiyue Peak, would you like to take me as your master?”

“I am an Elder of Shuiyun Peak, Tian Song. Take me as your master, and I guarantee that you will step into the Nascent Soul Realm within a hundred years.”

Two Elders of the Dao Palace competed for a disciple with the Cold Ice Physique, causing a wave of envy among the crowd.

The coveted genius, Han Xuan, however, was not very satisfied.

He had heard that Mount Shu’s number one teacher was Elder Lu Changsheng, who had cultivated two Nascent Soul disciples within ten years. But why, as a peerless genius with a special physique, did he not receive the favor of Elder Lu?

Was he not excellent enough?

Han Xuan waited for a while, but Elder Lu remained indifferent. He had no choice but to agree to Tian Song of Shuiyun Peak and became a disciple of Shuiyun Peak.

“Zhao Wuyan, it seems that your charm is not enough.”

Elder Tian Song touted, smugly boasting to Zhao Wuyan after having snatched a disciple with the “Cold Ice Physique.”

“Hmph, it’s just a Cold Ice Physique. I don’t even care about it,” retorted Zhao Wuyan, forced to scoff and pretend he was indifferent.

Shortly after, a few more geniuses with special physiques appeared, and Zhao Wuyan finally snatched a female disciple with the “Wind Spirit Body.” However, Elder Lu remained indifferent.

These geniuses had fairly common special physiques; the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator did not react at all.

Could it be that this year’s disciple recruitment ceremony did not have any top­tier special physiques?

Last time, the recruitment ceremony unveiled Xiao Xiangdao with the Spirit Sword Physique and Lin Qingzhi, who, despite having no special physique, possessed the Innate Spirit Vein as well as the Heart of the Innocent.

“That’s true; the disciple recruitment ceremonies are only ten years apart. It’s not very likely for peerless geniuses to emerge so frequently; otherwise, Mount Shu would be filled with peerless geniuses by now,” they reasoned.

More than ten thousand candidates were about to finish testing their qualifications, and Elder Lu had yet to find a suitable disciple.

Just as Elder Lu was about to give up, the Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator reacted.

” [Ding, the system is searching for suitable disciple candidates for you…]” “[Ding, the system has found a disciple candidate named Shen Xiaoyao.] The Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator burst forth a resplendent golden light, visible only to Lu Changsheng, which shot towards a young onlooker in the crowd.

This youngster, around twelve or thirteen years old, was excitedly watching the disciple recruitment ceremony. By his side stood a pair of middle-aged parents, dressed like merchants, dusty from the road, evidently having come specifically to watch the disciple recruitment ceremony at Mount Shu with their son.

” [The Disciple Apprenticeship Simulator is now assessing the candidate’s qualifications…I”

“[Name: ShenXiaoyao]”

“[Race: Human]”

“[Talent: Son of Fortune, Wind Spirit Root]”

“[Cultivation Level: First Layer of the Foundation Establishment Realm]”

“[Dao Bone: 12 Years]”

The Son of Fortune?!

Elder Lu was dumbfounded.

This was his first time encountering a disciple with such qualifications.

Although Shen Xiaoyao did not possess any special physique, his life’s destiny as the “Son of Fortune” was enough!

The Son of Fortune was certainly one of the best life destinies.

If one’s Qi Destiny was good enough, even a mortal walking down the road could encounter various fortunes and ultimately become an Immortal.

Those with such a destiny are treated as protagonists in novels.

“Lu, the disciple recruitment ceremony has ended, and you’ve not taken a fancy to a single disciple. It seems your standards have increased quite a bit,” said one Elder.

“Lu already has three genius disciples; it’s only natural that his vision has become higher, preferring to have none over accepting mediocrity,” commented another.

Seeing that Elder Lu did not accept any more disciples, the other Mount Shu Elders were naturally curious.

“But it isn’t necessarily so.”

Lu Changsheng walked towards the commoners who were watching the apprentice ceremony, under the astonished gazes of the crowd.

“Xiaoyao, your father has fulfilled your wish. It’s time for us to return to HeyangCity.”

“Father, I want to cultivate at Mount Shu and become an immortal like Daoist Lu!”

“Foolish child, only those with unrivalled talent have the qualifications to become disciples of Mount Shu. Even if your mother and I spent all we have, we couldn’t afford to send you to Mount Shu for cultivation. Listen to your father, let’s goback to HeyangCity.”

“Your child understands…”

Shen Xiaoyao looked back at the majestic Mount Shu main hall and the towering peaks, reluctant to leave.

The Mount Shu apprentice ceremony was one of the rare opportunities for ordinary people to ascend the main peak of Mount Shu.

Two years ago, a figure standing between heaven and earth broke the giant Blood Formation that the Blood Refining Elder tried to use to refine the entire Heyang City.

To this day, the people of Heyang City still display his portrait and burn incense in offering every day.

That figure was deeply engraved in Shen Xiaoyao’s heart.

He dreamed that one day, he too could traverse the world on his sword, act chivalrously, and slay demons to become a great hero.

“Child, your father, our child doesn’t wish to study in private schools or learn the ways of business with us. Instead, he dreams all day of becoming a hero. What should we do?”

“Ah, I just hope that after this trip to Mount Shu, Xiaoyao will understand that Mount Shu is not something we mortals can aspire to. Living a good mortal life is the true path.”

The merchant couple were filled with worries.

Suddenly, a figure with an air of immortality appeared and reached out to pat the boy on the head, “I see that this child has a connection with immortality and plan to take him as a disciple. Would you agree to let him cultivate under me and learn the ways of immortality?”

“You are… Daoist… Daoist Lu!”

As the merchant couple was wondering, they suddenly realized that the Daoist standing before them looked exactly like the Elder from Mount Shu who had saved Heyang City two years ago!

“You recognize me?”

Lu Changsheng was startled.

Was he so famous among mortals too?

“We are humble medicine merchants from Heyang City. Two years ago, the city was nearly refined by heretic cultivators using a Blood Formation. Thanks to Daoist Lu’s intervention, slaying the demons and banishing the evil, our family of three survived.”

The merchant couple was overjoyed, hurriedly attempting to kneel before Lu Changsheng, who reached out to hold them up.

So they were citizens of Heyang City, no wonder they recognized him.

“Is Daoist Lu truly willing to take my son as a disciple?”

“But my son is just a mortal, how could this be permitted?”

“Mortals are not necessarily incapable of cultivating the immortal path. Unless you two are unwilling to let your child embark on the dangerous path of cultivation?”

“No, to be frank, ever since our child saw Daoist Lu wielding his sword for flight, driving away demons and evil that day in Heyang City, he has always fantasized about becoming just like Daoist Lu one day, wielding an Immortal Sword and acting heroically. We just never imagined that our son would actually have such a fated encounter with Daoist Lu.”

The merchant couple quickly explained, as they could hardly believe in their wildest dreams that their son’s constant chattering about his dreams could actually come true one day.

“Xiaoyao, quickly pay respect to Daoist Lu as your master.”

The merchant couple knew this was their son’s opportunity for immortality and gently patted Shen Xiaoyao on the back.

Shen Xiaoyao, seeing his idol, was too excited for words.

It took a moment for Shen Xiaoyao to collect himself, “Di… Disciple Shen Xiaoyao, wishes to follow Master throughout the world, act heroically, punish the wicked and promote the good, and to be a great hero!”

“Being a great hero is not easy, but you must remember your initial resolve and never forget the words you said today,” Lu Changsheng said, satisfied as he accepted the disciple recognized by the system.

The child had a heart for heroism, and his character was commendable.

That’s it, this is a Son of Fortune!

Lu Changsheng suddenly realized.

The fourth disciple he had accepted really had an extraordinary destiny. He didn’t even need to participate in the apprentice ceremony, but as a mortal, he had become his disciple.
