Three days later, Patriarch Gu called many patriarchs over and held an apprenticeship ceremony in the main hall.
Lady Dan, Long Yunhai, and other core disciples came to watch.
Soon, the news spread. The Valley of Relics was stirred. Patriarchs did not accept apprentices easily.
Most of the patriarchs were skilled craftsmen and they were careful when accepting apprentices.
There were over ten thousand disciples in the Chamber of Relics but only over a hundred core disciples. Half of them were accepted by the patriarchs.
Qian Huanhan was accepted as a core disciple by Patriarch Gu. He was promoted from a registered disciple to a core disciple. His status was higher than many core disciples.
Patriarch Gu was a master craftsman who was very close to becoming a master craftsman. Most importantly, Patriarch Gu was the only one in the entire Chamber of Relics who knew about Thunder Trigger.
Thunder Trigger was a weapon of mass destruction and one of the treasures of the Chamber of Relics.
Imagine, if there was an invasion, the Chamber of Relics could take out thousands of Thunder Triggers and blast them. Even ten super mighty warriors from the Divinity would be blasted to smithereens.
Because of Thunder Trigger, Patriarch Gu had a special status in the Chamber of Relics. Apart from the Chief and the three main patriarchs, he was the most powerful one.
As Patriarch Gu's core disciple, Qian Huanhan's status was elevated. He was the only disciple that could learn how to make Thunder Trigger. The Chamber of Relics would value him highly. From now on, he could do whatever he wanted in the Chamber of Relics.
Outside the Chamber of Relics, he would be respected. Even the core disciples of the 72 sects would show him respect.
In other words, Qian Huanhan had a meteoric rise.
From a registered disciple, he had become a highly sought after disciple in the Chamber of Relics. Many disciples had stayed in the Chamber of Relics for a thousand years and yet, they were still average disciples.
Qian Huanhan was confused. The past few days felt surreal. It was as if he was in a dream. Occasionally, he would sit down and smile.
Even during today's apprenticeship ceremony, he was still a little absent-minded. Elder Gu almost couldn't help but want to give him a few slaps to wake him up.
Qian Huanhan was wearing a new robe today. His hair was combed neatly. His cheeks were glowing. He looked very glamorous.
On the other hand, Lu Li was in a worse state. He was wearing an old cyan robe. He stood in a corner and served tea to the guests. He was so busy that he looked more like a servant.
This time, there were some female disciples. They were the daughters or granddaughters of patriarchs and Hall Masters. They looked at Qian Huanhan with passion.
Qian Huanhan had gone from being worthless to being popular. The main reason was that he could learn Elder Gu's Thunder Bringer.
Based on this, Qian Huanhan had already become an influential figure in the Chamber of Relics. It was almost certain that he would become an elder of the Chamber of Relics in the future.
Long Yunhai and the others must be jealous of Qian Huanhan, but they pretended to be very friendly. They treated Qian Huanhan much better, as if they were blood brothers.
Miss Dan's attitude was still the same. It was obvious that she was just here to join in the fun. She greeted Qian Huanhan coldly and then ignored him.
On the contrary, she was very interested in Lu Li. She found a chance to walk over to Lu Li and said with a smile, "Lu Li, are you upset?
Are you very disappointed?
"Gu" and said, ", and said, Qian,", "and" is, "and," "is, and" are "" is "is."
"The way I see it, a person's character is very important. People like you will be at the bottom. You will struggle and look up to others for the rest of your life …"
Clearly, Lady Dan could tell that Lu Li was still angry. She came over to taunt him.
Lu Li was laughing to himself but he put on a bitter face and said, "Sister Dan, you are right. I will listen to you from now on. I will be low-key and do my work honestly. I will work hard on forging artifacts and learn more from you."
Lady Dan was bored by Lu Li's words. She stuck out her chest and said, "That's right. Work hard and perform well. Maybe in hundreds or thousands of years, Patriarch Gu or some other patriarchs will be kind enough to accept you as their protégé."
Lu Li cupped his fists and said politely, "Thank you for your advice. I will never forget it."
Lady Dan walked away with her head held high like a proud peacock. The ceremony began in the hall. Right at that moment, someone announced, "Chief is here!"
Patriarch Gu and the other patriarchs put on solemn expressions. They stood up and walked out. Long Yunhai and the others followed them. Qian Huanhan was also excited.
"Chief of Chamber of Relics!"
Lu Li was curious. Chief of Chamber of Relics was a master craftsman and a super mighty warrior in the Divinity. He was well-known in southern Divinity and was one of the most influential figures.
A group of people followed them out. Lu Li took a peek and saw a silver-haired old man walking in with a group of patriarchs.
This old man was hale and hearty. He was on the thin side and not tall. His eyes were especially memorable. His eyes were bright and deep like the sea, as if they contained a whole world.
"Ha, ha, ha, Shanhe is recruiting a protégé. How can I not be here?"
The Pavilion Master laughed heartily as he chatted with a group of Elders. After he brought his people in and sat on the main seat, his gaze swept across the faces of the group of people.
Lu Li made eye contact with him. He felt the Chief's eyes could penetrate his soul and see through his secrets.
"What?"
Chief was surprised when he saw Lu Li. He asked with curiosity, "How come I don't know you?
Is he new? "
"Swish, swish, swish ~"
Many people turned to look at Lu Li, who had become eye-catching. Patriarch Gu snorted all of a sudden. "Chief, this is indeed a new protégé. He has been assigned to work for me.
Hmm … his character is not good enough. He is not worth mentioning.
Chief, let me introduce you. This is Qian Huanhan, my protégé.
Chief's eyes glowed. He looked at Patriarch Gu and then paid no more attention to Lu Li.
She turned to Qian Huanhan and said, "Your name is Qian Huanhan, right?
It is your good fortune to be valued by Shanhe. From now on, you must learn to forge artifacts, honor your master, and strive for greater progress. "
Qian Huanhan bowed excitedly and said, "Yes, Pavilion Master. I won't let you and my master down."
Once again, everyone was distracted by Qian Huanhan. No one paid any attention to Lu Li.
Patriarch Gu's remark about Lu Li's character had sentenced Lu Li to death. From now on, Lu Li would never be able to make a name for himself in the Chamber of Relics. No one would care about a registered disciple with no future.
The ceremony officially began. Witnessed by many people, Qian Huanhan became Patriarch Gu's protégé.
Elder Gu had also given Qian Huanhan a supreme grade divine weapon. This was not counting the gift from the Pavilion Leader, which was also a supreme grade divine weapon. Many people were envious of it. After all, the gift from the Pavilion Leader was no small matter. Qian Huanhan was a supreme grade divine weapon.
With the gift from Chief, Qian Huanhan could basically do whatever he wanted in the Chamber of Relics. As long as he did not provoke Lady Dan or Long Yunhai, the average disciples would not dare to offend Qian Huanhan.
After some excitement, the guests left. When everyone was gone, Patriarch Gu called Lu Li to the backyard at once.
