Upon hearing Li Yang's words.

In the training field, everyone's eyes involuntarily turned towards Qin Chen.

A few hints of surprise appeared in their eyes.

Because Qin Chen's condition was really quite peculiar.

Qin Chen stepped forward and bowed to Li Yang.

"Junior thanks the President for your kindness, but unfortunately, this junior is inherently dull and fears failing to meet the President's expectations."

What!!!

Upon hearing Qin Chen's words.

The entire training field's atmosphere immediately turned incredibly strange, as everyone stood dumbfounded, wondering if they were experiencing auditory hallucinations.

Clearly, Qin Chen was declining!

Who could have imagined, that Li Yang would offer such generous assistance to Qin Chen, only for Qin Chen to refuse?

After all, from their perspective, this was entirely beneficial to Qin Chen!

How many people dreamed of becoming Li Yang's direct disciple?

Moreover, this acceptance was offered directly by Li Yang in front of so many people.

It certainly gave Qin Chen ample face!

Qin Chen was undoubtedly the first person in history to be accepted by Li Yang in such a public manner!

But Qin Chen's public refusal indeed shocked everyone present.

Furthermore, refusing Li Yang publicly would naturally offend him!

To offend Li Yang!

The implications were unimaginable to everyone present!

Because in their hearts, Li Yang was at the very apex of the pyramid, an existence they could only look up to!

Yes, indeed, Qin Chen's talent is impressive, unprecedented.

But what can an unripe genius amount to even if his talent is immense?

Have there not been enough extraordinary talents who have fallen prematurely over the years?

To offend Li Yang before growing, that's surely seeking death!

At this moment, undeniably the happiest.

Would naturally be Yuan Lin!

Truthfully, he never imagined that Qin Chen would publicly reject Li Yang.

At this moment, his gaze at Qin Chen gradually held a mocking gleam.

"Zhao Xiongmo, look at your guy, I must say, he's the stupidest idiot I've ever seen!"

"Hahaha! It's killing me with laughter!"

Yuan Lin spoke to Zhao Xiongmo in a lowered voice, utterly brazen!

If Qin Chen became Li Yang's direct disciple, he was doomed!

But now...

Maybe Zhao Xiongmo would suffer as well!

Could he not be thrilled?

Just like a moment in Hell and then a moment in Paradise!

"Qin Chen he..."

Zhao Tengqi and the other two looked at Qin Chen with complex expressions.

Others might be surprised by Qin Chen's refusal.

But they could roughly understand the reason for Qin Chen's refusal.

Yet, even so, they found it hard to imagine Qin Chen daring to publicly reject Li Yang, making him lose face.

"I've heard that Li Yang has an eccentric temper, if Qin Chen publicly rejected him, he would likely infuriate him completely..."

Gu Xiaofeng's face was full of concern.

Because they didn't know how Qin Chen would deal with Li Yang.

With just his strength, Li Yang could crush the current Qin Chen with a mere finger.

In the training field, people murmured quietly.

The atmosphere was so eerie, they dared not speak loudly.

Because at this moment, following Qin Chen's public rejection.

They noticed Li Yang's complexion thoroughly changed, even though his expression seemed calm.

But, the calmer it appeared, the more it felt like the calm before the storm.

Qin Chen stood at the center of the training field, his expression calm, without a ripple, which not only startled everyone.

Under such pressure, the majority would be terrified.

In fact, Gu Xiaofeng and others believed Qin Chen rejected Li Yang due to Zhao Xiongmo's advice.

But, that's only part of it.

More importantly, Qin Chen had obtained the inheritance from the Telekinesis Ancestor and Demon King in the Telekinesis Origin Realm, let alone Li Yang!

Even a Mind Sovereign-level powerhouse didn't have the qualification to teach him!

In terms of Chanting the Dao, Qin Chen had long surpassed Li Yang!

Thus, Qin Chen naturally wouldn't accept such an identity others deemed unattainable!

Frankly speaking.

Li Yang was far from qualified to accept Qin Chen as a disciple!

After a moment, Li Yang spoke again.

"It doesn't matter if you are naturally dull, after all, you possess Mind Sovereign aptitude, with a bit of training, you will surely become a dazzling powerhouse, so there shouldn't be too much pressure on you."

"I, Li Yang, have never taken disciples in my life, you are the first, so I will certainly cultivate you wholeheartedly."

"Also, I believe that throughout the Great Origin Dynasty, none are more suited to be your mentor than me."

Hiss—

Upon hearing Li Yang's words.

Everyone in the training field couldn't help but take a cold breath.

Because Li Yang's reaction was completely unexpected!

Already publicly rejected by Qin Chen, yet he was not the least bit angry, instead continued to calmly and sincerely express his willingness to accept Qin Chen as his disciple?

Just how much importance was placed on Qin Chen?

After all, what kind of person was Li Yang?

The foremost in Chanting the Dao in the Great Origin Dynasty, with supreme status.

They'd never seen anyone whom Li Yang would express sincerity and let bygones be bygones towards!

"So envious, if I could be treated like this, I'd have no regrets in life!"

"Looks like we've underestimated the terrifying nature of Mind Sovereign aptitude, or else, why else would President Li Yang lower his stance so much?"

...

Whispering filled the training field.

"How about it?"

Seeing Qin Chen standing silently at the center, Li Yang's brows finally showed a hint of coldness.

Remaining silent was clearly a form of disrespect.

Truthfully, Li Yang never thought Qin Chen would refuse him this day.

However, for him, Qin Chen was too important, so Li Yang lowered his stance for him.

But he wasn't a person without a temper.

Moreover, he held overwhelming authority.

"Sorry, junior indeed cannot shoulder such a responsibility, I hope the President forgives me."

Under countless gazes, Qin Chen's expression flickered slightly, then once more clasped his fists to Li Yang and spoke.

For Qin Chen, although offending Li Yang would be very unfavorable to him.

But, if Li Yang truly wanted to act against him, Qin Chen wouldn't let it go easily.

After all, he was the Sect Leader of the Reverse Shadow Sect!

He didn't wish to flaunt the Reverse Shadow Sect's power.

But, in critical times, he wouldn't show mercy.

Others might fear Li Yang!

But Qin Chen didn't!

Furthermore, in Qin Chen's thoughts, even if Li Yang disliked him today, he wouldn't openly act against him, right?

After all, Li Yang was the primary figure in Chanting the Dao within the Great Origin, with esteemed status.

Therefore, as long as Li Yang didn't openly act against him, Qin Chen had nothing to dread.

Because he was already prepared to leave the Imperial City Telekinesis Master Association.

Yet, although Qin Chen's words were calm.

Inside the training field, their hearts were stirred to explosion by his statement.
