Nobilis of War novel Chapter 28

"Well, in my opinion, the schools will do everything they can to fight for Nelson and Darren. They will offer the most precious resources to draw their attention and win their selection.".

Darren caught the disciple's words and understood their meaning. Though he was inclined to choose the School of Sword Skill for now, he could still wait and see what other schools were going to offer. This way, he could have more resources for his cultivation in the future if there was a school that would offer him a better deal.

A little later, the elders of the School of Spear Skill, the School of Arrow Skill, the School of Boxing Skill and the School of Blade Skill all showed their skills. Only the School of Sword Skill remained.

"Look! That's Elsa!"

Darren looked up at the stage and didn't find Elder Thomas there. Standing on the stage instead was Elsa Gongsun, who he had met at the Barren Wasteland the other day.

"Everyone, my father is in a closed-door cultivation right now, and he will be out in a day or two. So I, Elsa Gongsun, will recruit new disciples for him this time." With these words, Elsa walked a step up. The look on her face was still cold and indifferent like before.

"Wow! She's the daughter of Elder Thomas. She is so pretty! I've decided to join the School of Sword Skill and become her fellow disciple."

"You are clearly cultivating the boxing skill! How could you give up your future just for a pretty girl? I'll be the one to join the School of Sword Skill and win her heart! Hahaha!"

"Damn you! You just told me that you would join the School of Spear Skill!".

The appearance of Elsa caused much excitement. Many disciples were attracted by her beauty and her cold persona.

"My sword skill can't compare to other elders' skills, so I won't show it," Elsa said in an efficient manner. "Everyone, you can start choosing a school of martial arts skill now."

Hearing her words, the disciples all started moving, going to the school they wanted to join.

On the stage, the elders told their disciples to welcome the talents who wanted to become their new fellow disciples and to give an introduction of the resources they would enjoy after joining them.

"Calum, your talent is at the eighth stage of the Yellow Degree. If you join our School of Blade Skill, we will offer you a superior spiritual herb each month. And you will be allowed one trip to the Mysterious Spiritual Pool for meridian refining after three years. What do you think?"

"Of course! Thank you for giving me the opportunity!"

Some disciples were hesitant between two schools.

"Please join the School of Boxing Skill! We can offer you two superior spiritual herbs a month, and you can go to the Mysterious Spiritual Pool every three years. What do you say?"

"Don't listen to him! Join the School of Spear Skill! We can give you three superior spiritual herbs every month, and..."

The disciple they were fighting for had a talent at the ninth stage of the Yellow Degree. One could tell that the schools all wanted the best talents for themselves.

In the yard, only Darren and a young man dressed in blue didn't move.

The gazes of the elders standing on the stage fell on them.

"I heard that Darren is good at the blade skill. It seems that he will surely join my school! Ha-ha!" The elder of the School of Blade Skill had already heard that Darren had fought with a pretty boy with a blade on the way here.

"Elder Alan, you can't be certain. In my opinion, Darren is even better at the sword skill. I have a feeling that he will choose the School of Sword Skill," Elsa said confidently.

In fact, she felt happily surprised to see Darren here. She didn't expect the talented young man was the one she had met in the Barren Wasteland the other day. No wonder he seemed so talented that day.

"Uh-huh, you are being ridiculous, Elsa. You know that one can't cultivate the sword skill and the blade skill at the same time. Now that he's good at the blade skill, how can he even cultivate the sword skill?" Elder Alan retorted in a tone matching Elsa's confidence.
