"Bell, have your junior sisters' residences been properly arranged?"
After finally stabilizing Leng Ci, Xin found time to check on the new students who had come to report for enrollment.
Bell stepped forward and replied: "Teacher, Elder Sister Bing'er and Elder Sister Yue'er's residences have been arranged. However... there are a few other students from the Tianshui team who said they also wanted to see Teacher."
After Bell finished speaking, five students walked out from the side, looking at Xin expectantly: "Teacher Xin, please forgive our abruptness, but seeing the progress of Captain and Yue'er, we are all very envious. Moreover, we have all graduated from Tianshui Academy and really want a new place where we can learn and improve."
"We also want to join Heart of Fire Academy and become your students, Teacher Xin. Is that possible?"
These five students were none other than the other members of the Tianshui Academy team: Snow Dance, Qiu Ruoshui, Shen Liuyu, Yu Hairou, and Gu Qingbo.
"Have you thought it through clearly?"
Xin looked at the five girls with some surprise, but it was also within his expectations, as students from the Plant Academy team who had reported earlier also had similar situations.
"We've all thought it through clearly, otherwise we wouldn't have begged to come with Bing'er and Yue'er. We believe that learning from Teacher Xin will allow us to have a brand new beginning," Snow Dance said.
"I greatly appreciate your recognition and trust, but unfortunately, as of now, I already have over ten direct disciples, and most of my energy will be dedicated to nurturing them."
"If you are willing to join Heart of Fire Academy, I can keep you, but I can only accept you as registered disciples. Only when your senior brothers and sisters graduate will registered disciples have the opportunity to become true disciples."
"And registered disciples will need to self-study most of the time, with guidance provided by their senior brothers and sisters. What I can teach is only to guide the way."
"Given this, are you still willing to acknowledge me as your master?"
