The solemn-looking Elder Lo in the middle nodded before his stern gaze swept forth as he said in a low voice, "Since you've chosen Alchemic Rune Peak, all of you will be disciples of Alchemic Rune Peak from today onwards.
I'll not waste any time. Our Alchemic Rune Peak's outer part currently only has two teaching elders, one for runes and one for alchemy. In accordance with the rules, the disciples may choose who to follow."
The place fell silent as the numerous disciples secretly began to size up the two elders while their gazes flickered in thought, clearly weighing their options.
While they sorted their thoughts in silence, a figure suddenly walked out from behind Elder Sonk. It was a golden belt disciple that gave off a sharp and formidable presence, pride visible in his eyes.
