My magic weapons are all rule-based

"Beast, kneel down!" Yue Gan slammed the table in anger.

In front of him was Liu Chengfeng, who knelt on the ground with a dejected look.

"What did I tell you before? This is just an ordinary fight. Who asked you to kill? You... I have taught you for so long, why are you so petty! If the Lord of the Castle knows about the killing of fellow disciples, I can't protect you either."

"If something like this happens again, you don't have to wait for the Lord of the Castle to deal with it. When the time comes, don't blame me for not thinking about the relationship between master and disciple."

"Master! I was wrong!" Liu Chengfeng kowtowed, his heart aching.

Now thinking back, Duan Shuiliu's grandson used the fireball technique to deliberately interfere with the hearing of the elders and the Lord of the Castle.

Explain, no matter how he explained, he couldn't explain it clearly.

Duan Shuiliu said he wanted to expel him from the sect, which didn't sound like human words, no one would believe it!

Now Duan Shuiliu has occupied the Master's favor, and it is probably useless no matter how much he explains.

Be patient, and everything will be calm for a while!

He will reveal his flaws sooner or later, and then I will kill him!

"Tell me, what were you thinking on the field, why did you use such a ruthless hand?"

"The disciple was fighting with him and it was difficult to determine the winner, and he was always dodging, I was impatient and lost my mind..." Liu Chengfeng explained stumblingly, "But the disciple still held back his strength before..."

"Heh, held back? You have already lost this fight! Don't you realize it at all?"

"What? Where did I lose?" Liu Chengfeng was shocked, but in an instant his mentality became a little sad.

He did lose, he won the game but lost the hearts of the people...

"Just when you sprinkled the spirit stone powder, Duan Shuiliu's Guanyun hand could have cut your neck, but he didn't do it. People outside the field saw it clearly. If he had done it, the outcome would still be unpredictable, but if it was a real fight, you would have been dead for sure, don't you know!"

"This is impossible! Master, you are wrong?" Liu Chengfeng argued without hesitation.

He admitted that he lost outside the court, but wouldn't it be nonsense to say that he lost inside the court?

With the two moves Xu Shan showed, it would be difficult to seriously injure him.

"Wrong? You bastard still don't know what the problem is. You are lazy in your daily practice and your response to the situation is much worse than his! From today on, you will continue to stay in the Siguo Hall and come out after half a year. If you don't make any progress, you will continue to be locked up!" Yue Gan said with a stern face.

The reproach in his eyes completely shattered Liu Chengfeng's self-confidence.

I lost?

He cut my neck? Just by cutting off the water flow?

"Why are you still standing there, get out!"

Liu Chengfeng's lips moved twice, and finally said weakly and tremblingly: "Yes... Disciple will go now."

...

In the side room, Xu Shan closed his eyes and sat cross-legged to recuperate.

Yue Gan pushed the door open and said softly, "Shui Liu, how is your injury?"

Xu Shan slowly opened his eyes and smiled bitterly, "Thank you for your concern, Elder. It's not as serious as it looks. Senior Brother Liu did hold back, and I also reacted at the time... It's just a minor injury, and it will be fine after a few days of rest... It's just that I lost and failed to help Brother Lu regain his face."

"At that time on the court, you went around behind him and had a chance to seriously injure him, why didn't you do it?" Yue Gan asked.

Xu Shan thought for a while and replied, "Disciple did have a chance... But I'm not proficient in Guanyun Hand, I'm afraid that if I hit it... someone will die. Although I have a conflict with Senior Brother Liu, it's common for people to say a few harsh words when they are not happy, but it's not to the point of fighting for life."

"And... In terms of real strength, I am not as good as Senior Brother Liu. Tactics can only be a temporary trick and not a long-term solution. I lost with conviction, no words to say."

Is he still thinking about giving Liu Chengfeng a way out?

"Okay, okay..." Yue Gan stroked his beard and nodded repeatedly, "You have spirit stone powder on you, why don't you use it?"

"Spirit stone powder? I don't have it." Xu Shan looked blank.

"No, you have... I saw Lu Xiangjun gave you a pack." Yue Gan pointed to Xu Shan's chest.

Xu Shan looked enlightened, lowered his head to look at his chest, reached in and fumbled for a while, and took out a pack of spirit stone powder.

"This... Brother Lu gave it to me at that time, and I didn't think of using it... This duel was originally a competition between body-refining cultivators, and even magic weapons were not used. Even if this little trick was used to win, it would not be considered a fair win with the help of external objects."

Yue Gan raised his head and sighed, then smiled.

"Shuiliu, cultivators fight for their lives. Physical cultivators are especially good at close combat. This spirit stone powder is a common item for many physical cultivators and is also commonly used in battle. It is not a shameful method."

"You are very talented in fighting, but you are too honest and upright. If you continue like this, you will suffer a great loss. It doesn't matter whether the means are good or evil, or whether they are borrowed from external objects, as long as they are useful. In the future, remember to try your best to exert all your advantages in every battle. This is a qualified cultivator."

Xu Shan took a deep breath and bowed slightly: "Disciple...I have learned your lesson."

"Yes." Yue Gan nodded.

After pondering for a long time, he cleared his throat and said, "Shuiliu, I wonder if you are willing to become my disciple?"

Xu Shan raised his head in surprise, hope flashed in his eyes, and then quickly turned into disappointment, lowered his head and said, "Disciple... I'm afraid it's not suitable."

"My relationship with Senior Brother Liu is so tense, I'm afraid it will make Elder Yue embarrassed. If Senior Brother Liu knew that you accepted me as a disciple, he would be angry, and it would be difficult for you."

"This disciple has already gained a lot from learning Blood Archery and Cloud Guan Shou under the guidance of Elder Yue. I don't dare to ask for more."

"Hmm! How can it be unreasonable that I need the disciple to nod his consent to accept a disciple?" Yue Qian raised his eyebrows, "You just say you are willing or not?"

Everyone said that this disciple was good, and he himself felt that he was perfect. It could be said that he had grown up in his heart.

After listening to him talking to Lu Xiangjun before, I was afraid that it would be impossible for him to open his mouth to become a disciple, so now he could only take the initiative.

Otherwise, someone else will take it away!

Now that he is taking the initiative to attack, he is retreating. This is unreasonable!

Xu Shan's expression was tangled, and he suddenly gritted his teeth and stood up to salute.

Seeing this, Yue Qian quickly held down: "You are injured and there is no need to get up."

"Disciple is willing! Disciple is willing..." Xu Shan sat back down, his mouth full of excitement.

"Okay! Okay!" Yue Gan nodded repeatedly, with joy in his eyes, "Then from today on, you will be my disciple!"

"From now on, you can live here with peace of mind and practice with me. Right now, your foundation is not strong enough. I will personally help you with it."

Yue Qian's heart felt like a big stone had fallen to the ground, and he was filled with emotion.

It can be considered as collected...

"Liu Shui, you are so fast in practicing Cloud-piercing Hands and Blood Arrow Technique. What qualifications do you have for your spiritual roots?"

"Return to Master, middle grade fire spirit root."

"???"
