Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return-Chapter 1072: Two Masters Battle Over Han Yan

"No need to trouble yourself, Master Long. We’ve already made our decision," Zirong said with calm determination, but his attitude was unwavering.

"Fine, fine," seeing Zirong and the others so resolute, Long Congyuan trembled with anger.

Daring to defy even Long Congyuan, their courage is indeed commendable.

Everyone looked at Huayue and the others without a trace of unease, fear, or regret on their faces.

"Huayue, you really don’t have to do this," Han Yan said with a bitter smile.

She of course understood why Huayue and the others did this, but felt it somewhat unnecessary. With her own Cultivation Technique and the help of the Star Illusion Thousand Machine, it didn’t matter if she had a mentor or not. But it was different for Huayue and the others; without a mentor’s guidance, they might not find a suitable Cultivation Path.

Especially Tang Bufan, given his background and talent, it was incredibly difficult for him to pass the test, and yet he made such a choice to support her, which truly moved her.

"Did you forget what you said? We are best friends," Huayue smiled lightly.

"Yes," Han Yan also showed the same smile on her face.

"At this point, they can still laugh – could this be the legendary courage of the ignorant?" Seeing their smiles, many people sighed silently.

They also guessed why Huayue and the others were doing this, and they felt it was not worth it: to stick up for a playboy, it was hardly worth their unwavering loyalty, even to the point of sacrificing their future for Han Yan’s dignity.

"Have you really decided not to accept Han Yan as a disciple?" Gong Hongru briefly asked Long Congyuan and the others.

Among Long Congyuan and the mentors, especially the two mentors, Tian Yu and Mou, who were sulking, no one spoke up, but their silence was an answer in itself.

"If that’s the case, then I’ll..." Gong Hongru revealed a sly smile at the corner of his mouth.

However, before he could finish, he was interrupted.

"Old man, don’t think you can take advantage of this. Others might not see it, but do you think I don’t?" An old man strode forward, loudly addressing Gong Hongru.

Everyone was shocked, unsure of this old man’s origins or why he dared to speak to Gong Hongru in such a way.

"What do you mean?" Gong Hongru’s face darkened.

"Heh heh, what do I mean? You really don’t understand?" The old man chuckled.

Hearing him, the surrounding crowd grew even more confused, unsure of what exactly he was implying.

"Wenren Qingqiu, just say it straight. What are you planning?" Gong Hongru frowned and asked.

Everyone was astonished, finally realizing this old man was the Dean of the Illusion Dragon Branch of the Holy Dragon Academy. Although Wenren Qingqiu’s strength may not surpass Long Congyuan’s, his position as dean gave him a status in Long Yan Academy that surpassed Long Congyuan’s.

"Whatever you’re planning, I’m planning too," Wenren Qingqiu said nonchalantly, flicking his robe.

"If I remember correctly, your Illusion Dragon Academy said they weren’t recruiting disciples for this selection," Gong Hongru said coldly.

"It’s true that we’re not recruiting for this selection, but Han Yan and I are kindred spirits. If not for the Academy’s rules, I would have taken him as my disciple long ago. So, I’m definitely taking this disciple, and don’t think you can take advantage of this," Wenren Qingqiu said, unfazed, looking at Gong Hongru.

"Sorry, you’re too late. I’ve just decided to take him as my disciple," Gong Hongru’s words echoed like shocking thunder, leaving everybody stunned and blank.

"Gong Hongru, if I remember correctly, I spoke first about taking him as a disciple," Wenren Qingqiu’s face was tinged with anger.

"And what if you did? This selection is under my supervision. It’s not your place to speak," Gong Hongru said authoritatively, looking down on Wenren Qingqiu.

"Old man Gong, are you using your supervisory position against me?" Wenren Qingqiu asked.

"If that’s how you want to see it, so be it," Gong Hongru said without flinching.

"Good for you, Gong Hongru, daring to bully me!" Furious, Wenren Qingqiu suddenly leaped, striking at Gong Hongru.

"Bring it on!" Gong Hongru stood up to meet him, also unleashing a strike.

In the clash of masters, a thunderous boom resounded like shocking thunder.

Everyone below was dumbstruck as the Dean of Illusion Dragon Branch, Wenren Qingqiu, and one of the three great masters, Gong Hongru, started fighting at the selection event.

And the reason for their fight was the competition to take Han Yan as a disciple.

Everyone felt a sense of disarray; the sky was no longer the sky, the ground no longer the ground, the world completely inverted and chaotic.

(Was today’s update enough for you? I didn’t leave you hanging today, right? Begging for monthly tickets, look, my eyes are like a rabbit’s from crying, won’t you cast your monthly ticket my way?)
