"The Iron Saber Gang congratulates Hall Master Xue on accepting a cherished disciple!"
"Flying Eagle Castle congratulates Hall Master Xue on gaining a cherished disciple!"
The full-throated shouts of men echoed outside the Martial Arts Hall. Upon seeing people from the two great powers arrive, the crowd of astonished well-wishers parted to clear a path.
Bai Yuan looked on with surprise at the disciples of the Iron Saber Gang and Flying Eagle Castle who were now lining the path on both sides.
'It seemed even Senior Brother Chu Yuan hadn't received this kind of treatment back in the day.'
From within the crowd, Han Tie, the Vice Gang Leader of the Iron Saber Gang, stepped forward.
"So this is Nephew Bai?"
His eyes, like a viper's, swept up and down Bai Yuan's body, as if trying to see right through him.
Bai Yuan's heart skipped a beat. 'This Vice Gang Leader clearly wasn't here just to offer congratulations.'
