Huo Wu didn't try to restrain her emotions at all.
She let herself fall, as that was what she truly felt, and she chose to ignore the strange expressions of the others.
She was just following her heart, speaking what she wanted to say, so what was wrong with that?
She was 15 years old this year, and many people her age had already changed boyfriends several times.
She glanced at the three 12-year-olds and one 13-year-old beside her, who probably didn't even have all their hair grown in yet, and felt her own advantage was greater!
Ning Rongrong caught a glimpse of Huo Wu's unconcealed thoughts and felt as if she was pondering some lewd theories.
Judging by the meaning of her words, this was no longer just a debt of gratitude for a new lease on life; she even wanted to create a child?
Zhu Zhuqing also seemed thoughtful, wondering if this Huo Wu also wanted to make a move on the Grandmaster.
Xiao Wu, on the other hand, scrutinized their actions and expressions, thinking:
Is this Fourth Junior Sister too frozen? Don't think she hasn't noticed her wiggling her backside now and then.
And is this Huo Wu's heart on fire because the temperature is too high or something? Is she getting frisky already?
Those who knew the details would say they came to apprentice, but those who didn't would think they came looking for partners!
She then looked at Jiang Yunzhou, who had a calm and composed expression, seemingly unbewitched, and she secretly felt relieved.
It was good that he wasn't swayed by beauty; otherwise, Spirit Beasts had no taboos.
Jiang Yunzhou noticed his five disciples' colorful and varied expressions, but he didn't know what they were all thinking.
Because of the bond of master and disciple, their feelings deepened, and the feedback of their favorability increased.
Their reactions just now were no longer strange to Jiang Yunzhou; he felt there was nothing wrong with it, in fact, it was quite reasonable!
He silently endured their teasing words, with no intention of stopping them.
As a master, he did not want to dampen his disciples' enthusiasm for aspiring to beautiful things.
Therefore, he decided to bear it all alone.
But prolonged silence was very strange; what was the meaning of them all staring at each other?
What, did chatting now require guesswork?
He lightly cleared his throat, drawing the attention of his five disciples, and said, "Just be yourselves. Live in the moment; there's no need to change yourselves to deliberately cater to anyone."
"There's one more thing you need to remember: since you have entered my sect, you are all one family from now on."
"As a family, you must never create internal conflict. If any of you intentionally stir up trouble, no matter who it is, I will clean house and expel you from the sect."
He spoke with a serious and earnest tone.
What he wanted was a harmonious and stable rear, and he had no time to deal with trivial matters.
If someone caused discord over a small matter, it would be better not to accept them from the start.
Jiang Yunzhou knew the character of his five disciples to some extent, and with his warning, such things should not happen, but it was still necessary to say it.
After he finished speaking, his gaze swept over the five people before him.
At this moment, the five girls also reined in their smiles, nodded seriously, and were extremely obedient.
Are you kidding me! Being expelled from the sect is impossible; never in this life!
"Teacher, don't worry, we will always be your good little babies!"
Ning Rongrong continued with a giggle, "Also, now Huo Wu and Bing have an 'eight-buddies' kind of relationship with us, so even if there's a conflict, it's probably because of you..."
She blinked, with an expression that said, 'You know what I mean.'
Jiang Yunzhou glanced at her, did she really think he didn't understand?
He thought that as long as he treated everyone fairly, such things wouldn't happen.
"Alright, Little Huo Wu, Little Bing'er, you two should first familiarize yourselves with the cultivation techniques you've just received."
"Little Rongrong, Little Zhu Qing, Little Wu, the three of you no longer need to guard the arena."
Upon hearing this, the three girls were about to ask why they weren't continuing. They thought it was quite fun, didn't they?
Jiang Yunzhou continued to explain, "Currently, the effect I wanted has been achieved. Next, you all should cultivate diligently. When you have free time, the five of you can also spar with each other to develop teamwork."
His gaze swept over the five distinct yet equally outstanding young women before him, and he smiled slightly:
"There's one more thing to announce today."
"I plan to officially form a battle team, and its name will be — 'Supreme Team.'"
"The position of captain will be held by Ning Rongrong. She will be in charge of the rear and oversee the overall situation. Do any of you have any objections?"
Ning Rongrong's eyes immediately lit up when she was named captain.
She subtly puffed out her chest, raised her head, and her heart was blooming with joy.
Although she missed out on the position of Senior Sister, she at least snagged a team captain spot!
This brought her one step closer to the Teacher.
The other four girls expressed no opinions after hearing this.
Because they also knew that Ning Rongrong's current strength, ability, and the unique nature of the cultivation technique she practiced all seemed to have been prepared for this moment.
This decision was truly popular.
Zhu Zhuqing: "Teacher, I have no objections."
Xiao Wu: "Teacher, I also have no objections..."
Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er had even fewer objections, as they couldn't even defeat Ning Rongrong before this.
Hearing everyone's declarations, Ning Rongrong became even more smug.
"Teacher, you have such good taste!"
Ning Rongrong's face was all smiles, with a hint of smugness in her tone.
"Teacher, my Six Meridian Divine Sword has achieved some success. I don't lack offensive methods now. With me in the back as the old six—uh, no, as the commander—I definitely won't let everyone down~"
Her words were grand and righteous, but in her heart, she was secretly thinking: 'When the time comes, she'll point and they'll strike, hahaha~~ Everyone will have to listen to her!'
As she spoke, she directly put her hands on her hips and looked at the others: "Hehehe~~ From now on, you all be polite to your captain... This old lady... uh, no, this young lady will reward you when she's happy."
The remaining four girls saw Ning Rongrong's smug look and felt she was quite punchable, their little fists couldn't help but clench.
Smiling on the outside, but inside... sigh, don't even ask how dirty their thoughts were.
Fortunately, Jiang Yunzhou intervened to set things right.
He playfully slapped her on the back of the head, "Show-off, what are you showing off about? Do you still look like a captain?"
Ning Rongrong covered her head with her hand, stuck out her tongue, and mumbled, "This isn't showing off, this is confidence, okay..."
"Teacher, when you were showing off, I didn't interrupt your spellcasting~! So you won't allow me to show off a little..."
Jiang Yunzhou pointed at Ning Rongrong, momentarily at a loss for words.
After all, showing off was indeed quite satisfying. Forget it, she's just a little kid, let her be!
Ning Rongrong looked at Zhu Zhuqing and the other three girls and said, "Senior and Junior Sisters, please guide me in the future. You can tell me any opinions you have."
She secretly added in her heart: she'd like to see who really had an opinion of her; if they did, they could forget about gifts in the future.
"Rongrong, we highly approve of you as captain, so can you please move aside for a moment?"
Huo Wu took the opportunity to push Ning Rongrong away, making eye contact with Jiang Yunzhou, her words filled with anticipation: "Teacher, my brother Huo Wushuang... he also wants to join Supreme Academy."
After being pushed aside, Ning Rongrong silently noted Huo Wu's behavior... Hmph~ Daring to disrespect the captain, future gifts will be halved!
