Chapter 2272: Chapter 1954: Master Above

"Master, please accept my bow as your disciple!"

The five of them kowtowed in unison, none of them raising their heads, as if competing to see who was more sincere.

This sudden act of apprenticeship startled Song Yun.

Damn, where are these supposed great martial artists, they’re a bunch of crazies!

Song Yun snapped back to reality and quickly tried to help them up, but the five started arguing again.

"What are you four doing? I, Yu Yan, was the first to apprentice."

"Who said you were first? Your belly’s big, you can’t even bend your waist, my kowtowing speed is faster than yours."

"Ji Li, you can’t even see clearly, do you know who you’re apprenticing to? Besides, I’ve been earnest, I already apprenticed in my heart, you guys are just followers."

"Bullshit, Ling Miaozeng, you were the last to kneel."

"Xiao Ma, don’t talk nonsense, see, my forehead is already red from bowing."

"Oh Dai Qingliu, that’s because you have less hair, no protection."

...

The five bickered on, growing more intense, yet none of them lifted their heads, all kneeling in front of Song Yun, afraid that a single sign of disrespect would disqualify them from being disciples.

Looking at this scene, Song Yun felt his head spinning.

He shouted, "Distinguished seniors, please stop arguing. I can teach you how to make the Taohuayuan Token, you don’t have to become disciples."

"Kid, are you unwilling to take us as disciples?"

The man with sparse hair glared at Song Yun, releasing an aura so terrifying it caused Song Yun’s face to change drastically.

Never had he felt such an intense aura, his blood seemed to contract, breath unstable, even mobilizing True Qi became extremely difficult.

It was as if a mountain weighed upon him, almost suffocating.

The next moment, his knees trembled, and he was about to lose his balance.

Earlier, seeing these five act oddly, he doubted their strength.

But now he knew, they were certainly super experts.

Just as he was about to falter, the man with glasses pointed at the sparse-haired man and laughed, "Haha, Dai Qingliu, you dare to threaten Master, you can forget about learning how to make the Taohuayuan Token."

Dai Qingliu’s face changed, he quickly withdrew his aura and respectfully said to Song Yun, "Master, I’m sorry, I was impulsive, please forgive me."

Damn, they really are a bunch of lunatics!

Without the pressure, Song Yun felt relieved and secretly cursed them, looking at the five kneeling before him, he was left speechless.

"These five may be experts, but their minds seem unsound. Since you want to play, I’ll play along with you."

Song Yun sighed inwardly and said to the five, "Since you want to be my disciples, I’ll reluctantly accept you and teach you how to make the Taohuayuan Token."

"Master, please accept our bow."

The five voiced together, banging their heads on the ground three times, showing great reverence, and even after three kowtows, they remained kneeling.

Song Yun lifted a hand, struck a posture, and said calmly, "Alright, you can rise."

The five stood up, grinning from ear to ear.

But immediately, they started arguing again.

"I’m the oldest, so I’m the Senior Brother!"

"Bullshit, I was the first to apprentice, I’m the Senior Brother."

"I have the least hair, I’m the Senior Brother."

"I have the biggest belly, I’m the Senior Brother."

"I’m the most handsome, I’m the Senior Brother."

"I’m always getting dumped, I’m the Senior Brother!"

...

Their nonsensical debate nearly made Song Yun’s head explode.

Finally, Song Yun managed to calm the five down, declaring everyone was equal, no ranks, all were Senior Brothers.

"Master, you should teach us how to make the Taohuayuan Token now."

Having apprenticed, each called him Master with a serious demeanor, giving Song Yun the feeling he might actually be their Master.

But these five were peculiar, what went on in their minds, Song Yun had no clue.

Next, Song Yun taught them how to craft the Taohuayuan Token, and even offered the dozen jade plaques he carried.

Having learned the way of arrays from "Yin Xi’s Manual", what was complex to others became simple through his explanation.

Moreover, the array markings on the Taohuayuan Token were quite basic.

Their cultivation levels were high, their control of True Qi well-developed, so it wasn’t long before they grasped the method, only ruining six jade plaques, then each successfully made a Taohuayuan Token.

With the Taohuayuan Token, they were all immensely excited, cheering like children rewarded with candy.

Suddenly, Ji Li adjusted his slipping glasses, asking in confusion, "Master, the mark on the Taohuayuan Token has been passed down in the Taoyuan Spiritual Land for thousands of years, yet no one could carve it. How is it you, an outsider, know how to carve the mark?"

Song Yun replied, "I’ve studied arrays, so I know how to carve this mark."

"So Master is an array master, haha, we’ve apprenticed under an array master!"

"An array master, does that mean he can break the hidden array of Taoyuan, revealing it to the world."

"Heehee, without the hidden array, Taoyuan would be freely accessible."

"You fool, breaking the great array would cause Spiritual Energy to leak, ruining the cultivation environment of Taoyuan."

"So what, it’s not our concern."

"I’ve long wanted to break the array, but I can’t find the array’s core."

Ling Miaozeng, Ji Li, Xiao Ma, Dai Qingliu, and Yu Yan started arguing again, though still a bit nonsensical, it gave Song Yun some insight about Taoyuan.
