I See the Aura of the Great Emperor in All My Disciples

Chapter 2031: Chapter 2031: Wait, You’re Ye Qiubai?!

The seven people who appeared in the attic naturally included Dean Qin Tiannan and the hall masters of each hall, but of course, Lu Chang’sheng was not among them.

Although Qin Tiannan originally intended for Lu Chang’sheng to represent The Cottage in recruiting some students, it was already difficult enough to persuade him to give a lecture, let alone recruit disciples, especially now knowing this guy’s strength is so against the heavens.

Persuading that guy to talk about the Dao was a huge effort... So let’s forget about taking on disciples.

Below, countless people cast their gaze towards Qin Tiannan and the others, and there was a bit of excitement in their eyes, even though Lu Chang’sheng wasn’t there.

However, they knew that if they joined the Hidden Dao Academy, they’d have the opportunity to hear that legendary figure speak about the Dao.

"You must already know the rules: there are a total of three rounds, and those who make it to the end will be able to join Hidden Dao Academy," Qin Tiannan said loudly. "I won’t waste your time any further, let’s begin."

With that, he waved his hand.

The doors below the attic opened, revealing a dense forest ahead.

In an instant, nearly everyone in the venue rushed towards the entrance.

The man in the blue shirt and his companions, however, did not move after hearing this.

The man in gray clothing also did not move but walked proudly to the side of the man in the blue shirt.

The man in the blue shirt smiled, "So, did they sell?"

The man in gray clothing snorted, "Of course, plenty of elite kids are here to attend the enrollment ceremony at the Academy, and we naturally brought out the Heavenly Rank Technique and Elixir Pills."

"Congratulations."

The man in gray looked at the man in the blue shirt, "Why, aren’t you all here to join the Academy? Aren’t you going in?"

The man in the blue shirt simply smiled and said nothing.

The man in gray shrugged and headed towards the Academy by himself, "Alright then, suit yourself, I’m heading back. I hope that when I see you in the Academy, you won’t regret not having the Heavenly Rank Technique and Elixirs now."

After the man in gray left, the man in the blue shirt and his companions proceeded to walk towards the attic.

If the man in gray had seen Qin Tiannan cheerfully patting the shoulders of the man in blue and his companions, he would probably have dropped his jaw in astonishment.

...

The number of people attending this enrollment ceremony could be described as unprecedented... If there must be a comparison, it would be the first enrollment ceremony after The Mortal Realm’s war against the Nefarious Demon Region ended.

Therefore, this enrollment ceremony actually lasted seven whole days before it finally concluded.

Although there were many people, only a few hundred passed the Academy’s assessments due to the raised admission standards.

Soon, the elders of each hall completed the selection of their disciples.

The next part was the highlight that everyone was eagerly anticipating.

The crowd had already gathered at the venue for the Dao lectures.

Qin Tiannan and the elders were arranging for the arrival of high-profile figures from various factions.

Among them, Azure Heaven Academy, Hao Tian Divine Sect, Heavenly Sword Peak Sect, and several other top factions from high-latitude regions were also present.

"A lot of old acquaintances have shown up," the Divine Master Hao Tian said with a laugh.

Heavenly Sword Peak Sect Master Huo Zhengheng also laughed and chimed in, "Even though we just finished a battle, it’s like nothing happened here."

An elder from Azure Heaven Academy commented with a hearty laugh, "After all, the battlefield isn’t in our Mortal Realm."

"By the way, when is Senior Lu coming?"

All the sect leaders of the major forces looked toward Qin Tiannan.

Qin Tiannan smiled and said, "Soon."

Not only them, but the students below were also eagerly staring at the high platform at the front.

In the back, the man in the blue shirt looked around and smiled, "Master sure is popular."

The man in white shrugged, "The more popular he is, the more irritated Master probably gets."

"There’s nothing we can do, only Dean Qin can persuade Master to do this kind of thing," the woman in the red dress said, covering her mouth with a laugh.

"Oh, you guys can actually get in here too?"

Following the sound, the man in the blue shirt and his companions glanced over and saw the man in gray walking over, full of surprise, "Not just excellent students or those ranked in the top ten among the freshmen can attend this lecture. Are you in the top ten freshmen then?"

That can’t be right, there are eleven of you?"

The man in gray thought for a moment, as if he suddenly realized something, his eyes lit up, "Oh! I understand, you went through the backdoor... But who did you find? Lü Yi? Zhou Qihang? Or Yu Hao?"

The man in the blue shirt smiled and said, "None of them, but thanks for these names."

"Hmm?"

The man in the white shirt patted the man in gray on the shoulder, "Fine, consider this as making amends. Your punishment will be lighter then."

"Are you... crazy?"

The man in gray rolled his eyes and said, "Alright, you just keep watching here. I’m heading to the front."

An incense stick to burn later.

On the high platform, a figure silently came into everyone’s view.

At first, everyone was taken aback.

Then they all burst into exclamations!

"It’s Senior Lu!"

Those sect leaders from the great factions all bent over and cupped their hands towards Lu Chang’sheng in unison.

On the platform, the figure covered his ear with one hand and pressed the other downwards, instantly silencing the whole venue.

"Honestly, I don’t even know why the dean wants me to give you a lecture," Lu Chang’sheng said helplessly. "I don’t even know what to say to you, because honestly, I don’t even understand what the Dao is myself."

Everyone was taken aback.

Someone this strong doesn’t understand what the Dao is?

"This kind of ethereal thing, I couldn’t make sense of it even if I tried, so you’ll have to figure it out yourselves."

Beside Qin Tiannan, Du Zhong rolled his eyes, "And you dare to have him give the lecture?"

But just as he finished speaking.

Whispers rose from below.

"I understand now!"

"Senior Lu’s point is that everyone’s Dao is different, everyone’s Dao is something they need to realize themselves, not rely on others for!"

Du Zhong was dumbfounded.

Qin Tiannan looked at Du Zhong and smiled, "See, didn’t this guy give a great lecture after all?"

The Dean Ru standing nearby also stroked his beard and laughed, "The Dao is under each step we take, only by walking it ourselves can we truly understand, that’s exactly it."

Du Zhong: "..."

Have you all been brainwashed?

Looking down, some people even sat cross-legged, starting to try to comprehend.

Du Zhong’s eye corner twitched.

If these people aren’t actors, then their talent and comprehension are simply too high, what can they possibly understand from those words?

Lu Chang’sheng felt a little helpless as he observed.

You could say he was also getting used to it.

After all, this kind of situation had happened before.

One by one, they are masters of overthinking!

At this moment.

Lu Chang’sheng glanced towards the back of the crowd, and suddenly his eyes lit up.

The man in the blue shirt and his companions felt the intensity of the gaze, sensed something amiss, and just as they were about to sneak away, they heard Lu Chang’sheng say, "Actually, I studied a variety of things, why not let my disciples give you the lecture."

With that.

Everyone was stunned.

Senior Lu’s disciples?

That’s great too!

Each of them stands at the peak of their respective fields!

For a moment, everyone was looking left and right, trying to see where Senior Lu’s disciples were.

The man in gray at the front was surprised and delighted, "Senior Ye is here too?! I’m a sword cultivator!"

However, when he saw those eleven people ascending the stage one by one, he was dumbfounded.

His first thought was, why are they up there?

Then the realization hit him, they are Senior Lu’s disciples?

But their faces don’t match Senior Ye’s, do they?

It wasn’t until Ye Qiubai and the others removed their cover that the man in gray was entirely stunned.

His face quickly turned a deep shade of red.

Feeling embarrassed...

Those around him watched as the man in gray grasped his head in his hands, squatted on the ground, and then shouted, subdued, "What was I even doing at that time?!!!!!"
