Chapter 53: Good Disciple, Go!
Since she decided to create the club, everyone has been singing decline, including the family elders.
In their view, creating a club in a small place is unrealistic.
Even the dojo sects had an ambiguous attitude, not opposing but not providing any support.
But she just wouldn’t believe this nonsense!
At this moment, Old Master Wang Fengnian’s sponsorship was like a shot in the arm for her, making her even more determined in her beliefs.
“Old Wang, rest assured,” Xue Lingling said energetically, “My Ghost King Club will not disappoint you.”
Wang Fengnian smiled without speaking and strolled away.
Prosperity fades, people leave and tea cools.
The vast club was left only with the club members.
The grand scene just now seemed like just a play.
“Haha, let me tell everyone some good news,” Xue Lingling beamed, “Just now, our club successfully secured our first sponsor, applause~!”
The members were pleasantly surprised upon hearing this, with continuous applause.
“This is a good omen, showing that our club’s prospects have been recognized,” Xue Lingling continued preaching, “But this is just the beginning. In the future, our Ghost King Club will surely become synonymous with Yaoyang City!
Everyone, let’s work hard together—!”
The crowd’s morale was boosted, their eyes full of anticipation for a beautiful future.
“Oh right, let me introduce someone,” Xue Lingling beckoned Wu Xian to her side and introduced him to everyone: “His name is Wu Xian, an apprentice scroll painter, my proud disciple, and he will serve as our club’s vice president from now on.”
These words caused an uproar in the audience.
Du Yifan was especially dumbfounded. Apprentice scroll painter? Disciple?
In contrast, the other members were full of doubt and skepticism.
“Little Aunt, when did you take a disciple?” A youth who had just graduated from university spoke up in surprise from the group, “Such a big thing, why not tell the family?”
“Does Great-Grandmother need family approval to take a disciple?” Xue Lingling shot a cold glance, “When building the club, why didn’t they provide more sponsorship? Each one cries poorer than the last, hmph!”
“But…” Xue Qingyang awkwardly shut his mouth.
“Anyone with opinions can step up for a fight. If you can’t win, shut up,” Xue Lingling knew Wu Xian’s sudden addition was hard to convince the crowd, but big fists were the hard truth. “Good disciple~ go on! Otherwise they’ll think you’re just eating for free.”
Wu Xian smiled wryly.
Good grief, does Master Sister handle things so simply and brutally?
“Whoever can beat him can be the vice president. I keep my word,” Xue Lingling said calmly.
These words made the club members eager to try.
After all, Wu Xian looked like he had just graduated high school, seeming easy to bully.
Even with an apprentice scroll painter certificate, he shouldn’t be that strong yet.
“Brother Zhou, go on~ what are you waiting for?”
“The vice president position belongs to no one but Brother Zhou!”
“If you become vice president, everyone will have no objections.”
“Brother Zhou has already condensed the divine diagram, beating him is a piece of cake?”
Everyone’s gazes unanimously focused on Zhou Qi.
In fact, before Wu Xian popped up, everyone had already assumed Zhou Qi would be the future vice president.
However, facing the crowd’s encouragement and urging, Zhou Qi was unusually rational and calm. “I have no objections. Whoever wants to go can go.”
Joking aside, the scene of that big rooster charging straight into the nest was still fresh in his mind.
Would his Netherworld Centipede go up just to get abused?
“…”
The members were dumbfounded on the spot.
They couldn’t fathom why Zhou Qi would back down.
Could it be that the president had already spoken to Zhou Qi beforehand?
“No objections, right?” Xue Lingling scanned the crowd with a playful look, “Then the vice president is settled.”
The crowd exchanged glances, hesitating.
Zhou Qi having no objection didn’t mean they had none.
“Little Aunt keeps her word?” Xue Qingyang stood up excitedly, “Then your nephew has to give it a try.”
Seeing Xue Qingyang step forward voluntarily, the club members instantly livened up.
Nephew versus disciple, insider versus insider—this was going to be a good show.
Crucially, Xue Qingyang had fought his way up, and everyone recognized his strength.
“…” Xue Lingling’s forehead darkened, “Go away, why are you joining the fun?”
But she couldn’t stop Big Nephew from seeking abuse.
“I’m a club member too, why can’t I participate?” Xue Qingyang stretched his muscles and threw a challenging look at Wu Xian, “Everyone’s watching.”
Xue Lingling sighed helplessly. For this big nephew only a few years younger than her, she was truly speechless.
“Go easy on him,” Xue Lingling waved her hand irritably, “My brother only has this one precious son.”
Wu Xian smiled knowingly and stepped forward slowly.
He sized up Xue Qingyang. Not bad~ he really resembled Xue Lingling, just compared to her underworld makeup, he at least looked normal.
“Please advise~!” Wu Xian raised his hand in gesture.
“Little Aunt’s disciple must be undead-type, right?” Xue Qingyang exuded the confidence and arrogance of a noble family disciple, “Have you heard of my Xue Family’s undead-type scroll painting inheritance?”
With that, he tossed out an axis scroll painting, Tier 4 spiritual power surging, momentum pressing.
Silver scroll with gold edges, a proper original inheritance scroll painting.
Then, under Wu Xian’s curious gaze, the scroll painting unfurled in mid-air, transforming into a thick yin energy and fierce malice.
In the dark ferocious mist, a vicious fierce ghost gradually emerged, hair standing like steel needles, bloody face with sharp fangs, body wrapped in colorful tattered clothes.
“Four-star painted spirit, and the spiritual fluctuation isn’t low either.”
Wu Xian secretly judged and immediately released Black and White Impermanence to counter.
Though 【Black and White Impermanence】 was only copper scroll three-star, the five dimensions rating was strong enough, plus the 【original】 advantage.
Most importantly, it was a perfect matchup!
Too bad Ox Head and Horse Face weren’t ready yet, otherwise even more perfect—after all, Ox Master and Master Ma specialized in fierce ghosts.
As soon as Second Master Impermanence appeared, it startled Xue Qingyang.
Experts see the way, laymen watch the fun. As an undead-type noble family spirit tamer, he could naturally sense the extraordinary nature of this pair of twin undead-type painted spirits.
The other club members were mostly curious, surprised by Black and White Impermanence’s underworld image.
“What kind of crooked melon and cracked date is that? Too ugly!”
“Undead-type scroll painting, normal to be ugly, but gotta say, this guy’s scroll painting has character.”
“No wonder the president took him as disciple, the vibe matches perfectly~!”
“Tsk tsk, original scroll painting with gold embroidery, just don’t know the strength?”
“Only copper scroll three-star, while Xue Qingyang’s 【Brutal Fierce Soul】 is silver scroll four-star.”
Just from rank and level, the crowd had already decided Wu Xian’s defeat.
Only Zhou Qi looked shocked and suspicious, “Not the big rooster? How did it become undead-type scroll painting?”
Meaning this guy had more than one original scroll painting?
At the same time, the field was filled with yin wind, battle about to erupt.
With a piercing shriek, Brutal Fierce Soul struck first, its grotesque terrifying claws seeming to tear everything apart.
Any other undead-type painted spirit would have been intimidated by this momentum, but Wu Xian’s one black and one white painted spirits remained calm.
White Impermanence swung the soul summoning banner, and the shrieking Brutal Fierce Soul was suppressed by an invisible force, its momentum sharply reduced.
Immediately after, Black Impermanence whipped out a dark chain, wrapping it around the waist.
“Hiss~ such strong fierce malice!”
Wu Xian also sensed Brutal Fierce Soul’s power right away. The soul summoning banner and soul restraining chain were barely holding it.
One had to say, family inheritance scroll paintings had something, especially with the silver scroll four-star advantage.
