"What! You want me to join your Sect!?" Evi screamed in shock.
He didn't expect Yoze to offer him the chance to become his first student. He was only a simple scholar who focused on accumulating knowledge and maneuvering through politics.
Just one look at his thin body that lacked much muscle was enough to show that he had never practiced martial arts in his life. Evi had tried to learn a common martial art technique called Twin Fists before, but he found that he wasn't very talented.
Knowing that he would never get far, he stopped training in any martial arts and focused on becoming the best scholar he could be.
"Of course, I want you to join my Sect! Not only are you a good friend, but I can see the hidden potential in your body waiting to be unlocked." Yoze smiled after noticing doubt begin to form inside Evi's eyes.
This wasn't a doubt of whether Evi thought he was lying but a self-doubt that stemmed from a perceived lack of talent and worth.
