Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable

Nie Shuangshuang’s eyes were blue with desire, but the people around her, watching her fixated gaze on the entrance of the Ten Thousand People Platform with a fierce look, couldn’t help but shiver.

Indeed, she was infuriated beyond control, even her eyes were so terrifying. How angry was she!

Even Pei Ling, watching Nie Shuangshuang, felt somewhat uneasy, his heart filled with apprehension: ”Ahem, well, his disciple is so outstanding, compared with Nie Shuangshuang’s disciple, that uh, that.

I wonder if Nie Shuangshuang will become jealous of him having such a good disciple. What if she finds my disciple too lacking and wants to snatch him away?”

Nie Shuangshuang was unaware that Pei Ling beside her had already imagined whether he should resist or submit if she tried to snatch his disciple, and was quite conflicted about it.

Because Nie Shuangshuang had seen Feng Feiyu, who climbed onto the Ten Thousand People Platform, looking pale and awful.

Ten thousand steps, Feng Feiyu’s physical condition now was even worse than a mortal’s, climbing up here really took half his life.

His legs were so painful they trembled, he could hardly move them, yet he still persisted towards Nie Shuangshuang’s direction, his head hung low, his body trembling unconsciously.

Feng Feiyu was very uneasy, aware that today’s master-apprentice ceremony, the later a disciple climbs up the Ten Thousand People Platform, the more embarrassing it was, and only direct disciples had the honor to solemnly apprentice on this platform.

Among these direct disciples, his master was one of the most powerful Great Cultivators, as Nie Shuangshuang’s disciple, he ought to overshadow others coming to apprentice, that would be normal.

But in reality, no matter how hard he climbed, he was still one of the last few, so unbearable, it surely embarrassed Nie Shuangshuang.

Thinking of how kind Nie Shuangshuang had been to him lately, Feng Feiyu was very scared, afraid of Nie Shuangshuang’s disappointment in him.

His aptitude wasn’t as good as Nie Shuangshuang thought, would she abandon him, refusing him as a disciple who embarrassed her?

On the Ten Thousand People Platform, there were tens of meters walking towards Nie Shuangshuang, yet Feng Feiyu felt this path was too short, too short to summon the courage to face Nie Shuangshuang before it’s over.

But this path was so long, it felt like every breath lasted forever, so long it kept him indulging in wild thoughts.

Until a pair of warm, slender hands held his slightly trembling hand, warm spiritual power poured into his body, alleviating Feng Feiyu’s discomfort entirely.

Feng Feiyu looked up, and met Nie Shuangshuang’s unchanged, indifferent and indifferent face, Feng Feiyu tried to discern Nie Shuangshuang’s facial expression, but frustratingly found he couldn’t read anything.

Nie Shuangshuang’s expression was as usual, icy and unemotional, no special reactions, neither dislike nor affection, Feng Feiyu stood silently behind Nie Shuangshuang, waiting for the next step of the apprenticeship ceremony.

After Feng Feiyu arrived, another seven or eight people climbed onto the Ten Thousand People Platform, and all the new disciples coming for apprenticeship this time had climbed up, the ceremony could commence.

During the formal apprenticeship ceremony, all disciples left their respective intended masters’ sides, standing in a line below again.

Then the apprenticeship started in batches, first was the main seat, Nie Shuangshuang, Pei Ling, and two other Peak Masters, four Great Cultivators conducted the ceremony first.

Four disciples stood in a row, holding teacups, bowing with every step towards their masters, bowing nine times, this process thoroughly challenged one’s posture.

Holding the teacup while bowing, if not careful the tea in the cup could spill, this was the apprenticeship tea, it’s a once in a lifetime ceremony, if the tea spilled it would be disgraceful.

Luckily all four navigated to their masters without incident, and knelt together.

The first to speak among them was Qin Meng: ”Disciple humbly asks master to drink tea, today I apprentice under master, heed master’s teachings, respect master as father, never betray.”

In the middle, Pei Ling first took a sip of tea from Qin Meng’s hand, a smile adorned his face as he placed a silver bell in Qin Meng’s hand.

”From now on, you are my disciple, I shall impart teachings, profession, and resolve doubts, fulfilling my duty as a mentor, ensuring the stability of your future path.

Today, I gift you the Clear Heart Bell as a ceremonial token, may you always maintain clarity of spirit, your heart unstained, the path to immortality straight and smooth.”

Qin Meng received the Clear Heart Bell from Pei Ling’s hand with both hands, hung it onto her waist, and bowed again: ”Disciple adheres strictly to master’s teachings, thanks master for the gift.”

Pei Ling raised his hand symbolically, Qin Meng stood up following his lead, returning to stand behind Pei Ling, her ceremony was complete.

The next to engage in apprenticeship was Feng Feiyu, who nervously took a deep breath, knelt before Nie Shuangshuang, lifted the teacup, and repeated Qin Meng’s prior words.

”Disciple humbly asks master to drink tea, today I apprentice under master, must heed master’s teachings, respect master as mother, never betray.”

Nie Shuangshuang lifted the teacup from Feng Feiyu’s hand, drank it, and placed a small Flying Sword in Feng Feiyu’s hand.

Upon seeing this Flying Sword, everyone’s expression seated on high changed, even Pei Ling was slightly astounded. Nie Shuangshuang truly valued this disciple, such a generous gift she bestowed.

Feng Feiyu was stunned seeing the sword in his hand, because this Flying Sword was too famous!

This Flying Sword was Nie Shuangshuang’s weapon in her youth, named Returning Clear, meant to purge demons and return clarity to the world, accompanying Nie Shuangshuang in slaying countless demons, a rare Magic Treasure.

Later, Nie Shuangshuang’s cultivation increased, the Returning Clear Sword became slightly inadequate, so she stored it away. At this moment, Nie Shuangshuang gifting this former sword to Feng Feiyu, its significance was evident.

Feng Feiyu’s heart was incredibly conflicted, not expecting despite embarrassing Nie Shuangshuang, she would still grant him such an important ceremonial gift.

Feng Feiyu looked at Nie Shuangshuang, her face still calm and icy, without any ripples, as she saw him look up, she merely spoke to him with a soft voice: ”I hope you can be worthy of this Returning Clear Sword.”

Everyone knew, Nie Shuangshuang wielded the Returning Clear Sword, renowned for slaying demons and monsters, now giving her former Flying Sword to Feng Feiyu, she surely hoped he could inherit her legacy.

Feng Feiyu gripped the Flying Sword tightly, stood behind Nie Shuangshuang, his mood completely transformed from previous gloom and anxiety, now full of fighting spirit.

Clutching the Returning Clear Sword tighter, Feng Feiyu gazed at Nie Shuangshuang’s upright back, a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes unbeknownst to him, he would strive hard, never tarnish Nie Shuangshuang’s reputation.

The subsequent apprenticeship ceremony, Nie Shuangshuang merely observed it all, finally enduring till everyone’s ceremony concluded, she directly pulled Feng Feiyu along and ran.
