Sun Jian smiled. "It must be because your alchemy skills are so profound, Master. Many people wish to become your disciple. The Peak Master and the other Elders received less than half the applications you did."

'Chi Song is in seclusion, and Dan Yang is with the Noble Faction, so I'm the only one left for them to choose.'
As he thought this, he opened the first application.
