Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 54: Teacher?
Zhang Yu was still a concern. Even when he decided to descend, dozens of disciples looked at him like stars.
"Look, look! It was Zhang Yu!" The new disciple who recognized Zhang Yu immediately exclaimed.
Whether it's a boy or a girl. Everyone stared with a feeling of admiration.
Usually a new disciple would be so passive and oppressed. But due to his existence, the identity of the new disciple became raised. Indirectly this will make them - the new disciples - not to be looked at with one eye.
"Brother Zhang Yu, you're not just breaking records, you're amazing!" Wu Zetian directly approached Zhang Yu when he had already descended from the last rung of the stairs. He approached even clinging right beside her as if showing everyone here that he, Wu Zetian, had some closeness to Zhang Yu.
Friends are groups of people who share many things. So it's appropriate to share the popularity, right?
Other than Wu Zetian there were some people who came closer. Most of them are new students who want to create relationships. But before you can introduce yourself, some parents come with their dominant voice.
"Excuse me, can you guys step aside for a second?"
The disciples who were swarming around Zhang Yu immediately scattered to find out who was coming. Even Elder Roxie who was there instantly bowed in respect to them.
"Elder Xin Fei, Elder Lou Yi, Elder Yu Han!"
The three elders only nodded their heads at a glance then walked back towards Zhang Yu's position.
"Your name is Zhang Yu?" ask Elder Lou Yi who is in the middle.
"Certainly, Elder! My name is Zhang Yu."
Elder Lou Yi was momentarily silent. He glanced at Elder Xin Fei and Elder Yu Han who were on his left right.
"Zhang Yu, do you want to become a student of one of us?" ask Elder Lou Yi.
This question makes the mood a scene. A new disciple had only joined two days but there were three elders who came directly to him asking for him to become their disciple.
Especially who did not know these three elders. Although only the outer court elders, but their big names were not inferior compared to the average inner court elders.
"This Zhang Yu is very lucky! Three higher-ups of the outer court came to him. If it was me, it would have taken it."
"Yes, being Elder Xin Fei's disciple is a good thing. But being the disciple of Elder Lou Yi was not bad either. It's a blessing to him."
Some outer disciples looked on enviously. Those who had been trying to attract the attention of the elders had been unsuccessful, but Zhang Yu did it so easily.
This is a little unfair. But it was a pity that they did not have the courage to protest. It could only blame itself for not having such talent as Zhang Yu.
"Zhang Yu, quickly agree! I advise you to become Elder Xin Fei's disciple." Wu Zetian whispered right in Zhang Yu's ear. But Zhang Yu only shook his head faintly. He took a breath then took this opportunity to tell the three elders.
"Chairman Xin Fei, Elder Lou Yi, Elder Yu Han. I really appreciate you guys. It would be a fortune to be your student. But I can't take it."
"..."
No one expected that Zhang Yu would reject the offer of becoming a disciple of the three supreme elders of the outer court.
Suddenly the atmosphere became quiet. The faces of the three elders also showed displeasure. But they are still trying to hold it and hide it.
"May I know why you don't want to be our student?" ask Elder Xin Fei. The fat man folded his hands behind while carving out a friendly smile.
"Sorry Elder, but I already have a teacher. My teacher is also in the academy."
"Teacher? At academy?" Elder Xin Fei looked at Zhang Yu intently. He glanced at Elder Lou Yi and Elder Yu Han.
"So you have a teacher? What's your teacher's name?" elder Yu Han asked impatiently.
It was not only the three elders who were curious. The dozens of disciples still gathered there were also curious.
Zhang Yu's time-wasting silent attitude rendered the three elders helpless. They breathe simultaneously. "If you already have a teacher, we're not the ones who aren't so heartless about forcing you."
"Thank you for the Elder's understanding!" Zhang Yu put his hands together and paid his respects.
Elder Xin Fei nodded his head faintly, he then turned around before shouting at all the disciples who were still gathered. "Everything's dispersed! There's nothing to see here!"
With that cry all the disciples instantly dispersed themselves. The three elders also left, leaving only a few people including Zhang Yu, Wu Zetian, Elder Roxie and Meng Hua.
"Zhang Yu, you are so great to be able to reject the three elders. Do you really have a teacher?" ask Wu Zetian.
The curious Meng Hua asked. "Is your teacher an inner court elder?"
Zhang Yu only scratched the nape of his head that was not itchy. Dazed at what to say, he finally nodded his head justifying Meng Hua's words.
"Right, my teacher lives in the inner court."
After all who lived in the inner court was not limited to the inner court elders. Although it was not clear the identity of his teacher, but given Du Xiong's explanation it should be one of the five master teachers. And the five master teachers must be living in the inner court right?
Wu Zetian's eyes seemed to sparkle at Zhang Yu's reply. He pulled Zhang Yu's hand and tightly sealed it. "Ghang ... No, I mean Brother Zhang Yu, your teacher is an inner court elder. So can you recommend me to him?"
He's trying to lick. But Zhang Yu threw his hand away. "Sorry Brother Wu, but my teacher is not looking for a servant."
Uh...
Wu Zetian's forehead shriveled trying to digest the sentence. Gradually his reddened face understood the meaning of his words.
"Excession! Zhang Yu, do you think I look like a servant?!" He stomped his feet while cursing at Zhang Yu who had already walked away. A moment later asked Leng Hua and Elder Roxie about their views towards him.
"Senior Meng Hua, Elder Roxie, do I look like a servant?"
"Yes, similar."
"You're better suited to be a waiter."
Meng Hua and Elder Roxie replied simultaneously. The two then left Wu Zetian who looked even more annoyed.
Arg's!
"You're all outrageous! My big body thinks of me like a servant. I'm not a waiter! I'm ...." Suddenly Wu Zetian stopped talking by smothering his mouth. He looked around with a hunting gaze, then left from there as quickly as possible.
Enough of the maid's name is enough to piss him off. Don't let people think he's crazy for talking alone.
Somewhere else.
After leaving the dragon stage Zhang Yu decided to return to his residence. Passed through a lot of buildings before reaching his territory.
The courtyard of the residence slowly appeared within the range of his vision. He swung his legs faster wanting to get there and rest.
Although energy and Qi have been restored, the mind also needs rest.
All the things that would be done after this were clearly set in his mind. However, it seems like all of that will only be wishful thinking.
Suddenly from the direction of the residence beside his residence, a loud screeching sound was heard accompanied by a booming bang.
White smoke floated in the air. Then seen from a distance the silhouette of a small monkey running on the roof and archway.
Zhang Yu's forehead shriveled. His mouth could not stop mumbling. "Sune! What's he doing?!"
