Chapter 30: Become Lan Tian's disciple? (Votes requested)
Read from beginning to end.
Watching Lan Tian's commanding manner, he seemed to disregard the Spirit Hall, the Three Upper Sects, or even the two empires.
Among them, the Fourth Prince Xue Beng, who had come to Blue Silver City with his uncle as a representative of the Heaven Dou Empire, had a starry look in his eyes.

A true man should be like this.'
His admiration was palpable, and he fantasized about the chance to do so himself.
"Uncle, I want to join the Blue Silver Academy and become Lan Tian's disciple."
As the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect members were about to leave after the transaction, and Lan Tian seemed to be leaving as well, Xue Beng couldn't help but grab his uncle. If Xue Qinghe could become the disciple of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's leader, then he could also become the disciple of the Blue Silver King.
Although he was walking outside, the sound of his voice was loud enough for the many Soul Douluos and Titled Douluos present.
Most people merely glanced at him, paying no attention to the renowned, wily prince of the Heaven Dou Empire.
Upon hearing this, Prince Xuexing's expression froze for a moment, but he quickly reacted.
Currently, the majority of the Heaven Dou Empire was aligning with Crown
Prince Xue Qinghe. Prince Xuexing's status was declining, and Xue Beng, even more so, was considered a complete waste by others.
Under normal circumstances, with the Crown Prince's control, he would have supported him.
However, the sudden deaths of two capable princes had left him skeptical of Xue Qinghe's identity, even forcing him to verify his spirit.
Because of this, their relationship was severely strained.
This time, he had put in a lot of effort to become the representative of the Heaven Dou Empire, hoping to gain a better understanding of the various factions and find partners.
"I'll fight for you."
Judging from what had happened, Xuexing was certain Lan Tian wasn't completely unreasonable.
While he might appear overbearing, he was also motivated by a desire for some sort of advantage.
So, with enough money, there was still a chance he could win Xue Beng over.
He just didn't know if they could offer what they wanted.
Although both were princes of the Tiandou Empire, their status differed significantly.
Logically, Prince Xuexing, a member of the imperial family, should have held a higher position.
However, Blue Silver City didn't rely on the Tiandou Imperial Family; even the throne was offered to them through sheer devotion.
It must be said that Prince Xuexing was also quite proactive.
When the others were sent away, he approached Lan Tian with Xue Beng
and made his request.
"Become my disciple?"
Lan Tian was a little surprised. He had never accepted a disciple, nor had he considered taking one.
He looked at the Tiandou Imperials standing in his way. They were both splendidly dressed and had an impressive demeanor, but they lowered their attitudes in front of Lan Tian. Prince Xuexing was a bit fawning, and Xue Beng, on the other hand, was practically begging.
He also suspected that the other party was seeking support. Normally, Prince Xuexing would have helped Dugu Bo, given his support.
But now, without the Titled Douluo's support, they likely face immense difficulties in Tiandou City.
"Indeed, as long as His Majesty the Blue Silver King accepts Prince Xue Beng as his disciple, we will prepare a generous apprenticeship gift for him, presented annually. Of course, His Majesty the Blue Silver King can also ask for anything he needs."
Prince Xuexing was already prepared to spend heavily to make Lantian a "friend.
" "I have no intention of accepting a disciple."
Not only did he not have any such intentions, but even if he did, Lantian would never accept Xue Beng as his disciple.
He refused without hesitation, but then thought of the Spirit Hall's people planted within the Tiandou Imperial Family.
He also had some ideas about the Tiandou Empire.
"Your Majesty the Blue Silver King, is there no chance?"
Xue Beng was a little devastated by this blunt refusal.
Even Prince Xuexing, standing by, opened his mouth several times but remained speechless.
The main reason was that the other party's status and position were comparable to his own, not to mention their strength. He had no confidence in convincing them.
He even worried that after this incident, they would contact Xue Qinghe.
"It's impossible for me to accept a disciple. I have no intention of doing so. But it's still okay for you to join the Blue Silver Academy. If you're capable, then find a teacher yourself." "
There's still plenty of talent at the Blue Silver Academy."
Even though Lan Tian had an idea, he didn't push it too far. He
just made a quick plan.
If the other party performed well, he'd send someone into action.
If they were completely useless, he'd just make use of them.
"Thank you, King Blue Silver, for the opportunity. How can I get Xue Beng enrolled?"
Seeing Xue Beng about to speak, Prince Xuexing stopped him.
Now they were begging for help; becoming a disciple wouldn't work, but part of their goal was already achieved.
Letting Xue Beng enter the Blue Silver Academy to scout for talent, help train them, and find a strong teacher with connections to the Lan family would clearly offer a better chance than directly becoming Lan Tian's disciple.
That would also be considered a connection.
"Little Wuji, I'll leave everything to you."
"The academy is also in your hands for now. Lan Zheng and the others have other things to do."
Now that the people from other factions had begun to leave, Lan Tian didn't hide his thoughts.
He called Zhao Wuji directly and arranged for Xue Beng to enroll.
Zhao Wuji came to his side respectfully.
He didn't think much of Xue Beng. Or rather, he looked down on the nobles.
But he could still obey Lan Tian's arrangements.
"Yes, old man."
"Then I'll leave it to you. If you have any problems, just look for Xiao Wuji. I hope you can find a satisfactory teacher."
The matter was basically resolved and went smoothly. Lan Tian didn't show any harshness and even encouraged him.
Before leaving, he patted Xue Beng's shoulder, as if to encourage him.
This made Zhao Wuji's eyes widen and he wanted to change seats.
It also made Xue Beng's face flush with excitement.
For now, having Lan Tian's encouragement was better than anything else.
It was like taking stimulants.
"I will work hard."
He even wondered if he would have the chance to become a person that everyone praised, instead of being abandoned by everyone.
His mind was full of thoughts, but he could only watch Lan Tian walk away. Following him were Xiao Lan, Lan Zheng, and Lan Lu.
There was no way he could stand behind him now.
"Let's go, I'll enroll you."
"I'll explain the rules to you. Don't bring those garbage things between you nobles to the academy, otherwise I don't care whether you are princes or princes."
After Lan Tian left, Zhao Wuji's true colors were revealed.
Under normal circumstances, except for the people he admires, no one else can expect to see his good face.
Therefore, in the school, he is like a black-faced devil, and basically everyone is afraid of him.
The teacher also likes to report some disobedient students to him and hand them over to him for punishment.
These words made Xue Beng's face darken, and he felt that his future days would not be easy.
But there was no chance to regret the path he had chosen.
He could only follow the other party to enroll in school.
