Legendary Armament Canon

Chapter 998 Forging Legacy, First True Disciple (3)

?

Zhou Shu pondered for a moment before saying, "Leave the scouting to the other bai zes. From now on, stay in the Lingxiao Treasure Palace and learn forging from me."

"Thank you!" Bai Yue cupped his hands.

He knew the value of forging.

After living in the Origin World for thirty years, Bai Yue was different from Feng Wu and Ling'er.

He had fought outside for thirty years and had come into contact with countless people from various eras.

"Master, please accept my bow." Bai Yue knelt on one knee and touched his head to the ground.

Zhou Shu was shocked by him. "What are you doing? I promised to teach you forging, but I didn't say I would accept you as my disciple!"

He had never taken in a proper disciple in his life.

In the past, there was an in-name disciple, but before that in-name disciple became an official disciple, he already…

Alright, Lu Wenshuang could no longer be considered his disciple. The master and disciple title was just fun between lovers.

Zhou Shu had never really thought about taking in a disciple.

"I understand the rules," Bai Yue said in a deep voice. "Forging techniques are not taught to people other than disciples. Since I want to learn forging from you, it's only right for you to be my master.

"He who teaches me for one day is my teacher for life. I understand."

Bai Yue's expression was solemn. When he was in the Origin World, he had paid attention to the rules of the future world.

"You've learned a lot," Zhou Shu said.

"One has to know more to live clearly," Bai Yue said. "Although I, Bai Yue, am not self-conceited, I won't belittle myself. I think that with my aptitude, I should be able to be your disciple."

"You're quite confident."

Zhou Shu pondered for a moment before saying, "It's not impossible to be my disciple, but I'll make it clear first. I'll only teach you forging. As for the Martial Dao, it will depend on your performance."

"I only want to learn forging to begin with. It's not like I didn't gain anything regarding the Martial Dao in the Origin World," Bai Yue said. He didn't have many thoughts about becoming stronger now.

His only obsession was how to make the bai ze race exist forever and not let all the races in the world disappear into the long river of history like what the people of the future said.

Zhou Shu contemplated for a moment. "Alright, in that case, I'll accept you as my disciple.

"Bai Ze King, after you become my disciple, you have to practice diligently. Don't embarrass me, understand?"

"Understood." Bai Yue kowtowed. "Master, you don't have to call me Bai Ze King. My name is Bai Yue. From now on, you can call me by my name."

"Alright, Bai Yue." Zhou Shu nodded. "Get up. You're my first disciple and the first official successor of my forging legacy."

Zhou Shu looked thoughtful. He had taught many people forging in the past, but these people were not his disciples.

For example, the Forging Apprentices of the giant spirit race in the Lingxiao Treasure Palace were only apprentices and couldn't be considered Zhou Shu's official successors at all.

Bai Yue was different. Since he had already kowtowed and acknowledged him as his master, he was his true disciple.

No matter how well a Forging Apprentice learned, it wouldn't affect Zhou Shu's reputation.

But if his disciple was useless, he would lose face.

Bai Yue's aptitude wasn't bad. Taking him in as a disciple, he didn't have to worry about him being too lousy. But he still had to think carefully about how to nurture him into a true forger.

Zhou Shu's foundation was forging. As the first successor of his forging legacy, if Bai Yue couldn't become a famous forger, then Zhou Shu would be incompetent.

"Bai Yue, to learn the art of forging, the most important thing is to build a solid foundation. From today onward, I want you to travel the world and understand the nature of all the forging materials in the world. In ancient times, Shennong is said to have tasted countless herbs. Today, you, Bai Yue, will test all things in the world and see how many forging materials there are in this world."

"I obey your orders," Bai Yue said with a serious expression.
