Su Bai waited for a while longer and added another sentence to the sign.
Food and lodging included!
Enter the Sect and you can Cultivate Sublime Methods!
He removed all the grand, empty talk about becoming the number one Sect in The World in the future, focusing instead on being practical and realistic!
He only needed one Disciple to upgrade the Sect and open the Immortal Arts Pavilion. By then, what Sublime Methods wouldn't he have?
Seeing that the sky was slowly darkening, Su Bai couldn't help but sigh softly. He prepared to pack up and leave to find a bridge to sleep under for the night.
"Excuse me, Immortal Master, can one really Cultivate Sublime Methods just by entering the Sect?"
At this moment, a voice came from behind him.
Su Bai turned his head to look and saw a young man in a green shirt standing behind him, looking reserved.
There was a faint hint of fatigue between his brows, but his eyes were full of determination and longing.
"That's right. After entering the Sect and becoming a Disciple, you can immediately get access to Sublime Methods."
Su Bai straightened his expression. This was the first person to come and inquire today. No matter the person's appearance, he had to answer patiently.
However, as soon as he spoke, a crowd of people gathered around.
"This is a swindler, how can you believe him?"
"Exactly, exactly. Such a crude scam, does he think it's still ten years ago?"
"Young man, thirty taels of silver is hard to earn, be careful not to be cheated!"
The crowd mocked him with a barrage of words, their eyes filled with contempt and disdain as they looked at Su Bai, as if looking at a piece of trash.
Zhuge Feng remained silent and indifferent. He wasn't a fool; he also knew that Su Bai was ninety-nine percent likely a swindler.
But what about that one percent?
Even if there was only one percent hope of accessing Sublime Methods, he... didn't want to give up!
It's just, thirty taels of silver........
Seeing that the young man stopped talking, Su Bai shook his head. It seemed that he had now been labeled a swindler and a fool, and wouldn't be able to recruit Disciples.
Tomorrow, I'll go to a Hundred Sects Meet in a different place, and change my getup!
"Excuse me, Immortal Master, can the thirty taels of silver be settled at the end of the month?" Zhuge Feng mustered his courage and whispered.
He knew his request was excessive, and the possibility of being rejected was as high as ninety-nine percent.
All Sects and Influences almost always collect the month's silver at the beginning of the month, with no credit given, no exceptions.
However, he was currently penniless, and there was nothing he could do about it.
"Settling the silver at the end of the month? No problem! Don't worry, our Sect absolutely will not default!" Su Bai patted his chest and guaranteed.
Before Transmigration, he hated Companies that defaulted on wages the most. After Transmigration, he became a Sect Master. He couldn't guarantee other things, but he absolutely had to guarantee the treatment of his Disciples!
Only those who have been rained on know how uncomfortable it is.
Zhuge Feng was stunned. He hadn't expected there to be someone willing to offer credit.
"Immortal Master, are you... sure?"
"Mm, of course!" Su Bai nodded.
"Immortal Master, Disciple Zhuge Feng is willing to join the Tiandao Sect!" Zhuge Feng quickly bowed.
"Zhuge Feng, is it? We'll do the Disciple ceremony back at the Tiandao Sect. Do you have time now?"
"Yes, Disciple has nowhere to go right now and can accompany Immortal Master to the Sect."
As Su Bai left with Zhuge Feng, the crowd on the other side couldn't hold back their laughter.
"Could this young man be a fool? He couldn't even see through such a clumsy scam?" Someone couldn't help but mock.
A person next to him chimed in, "Exactly, exactly. Looking at him, his brain probably isn't working too well either."
Someone interrupted, "Ah, forget it, forget it. Didn't he just say he was penniless? Even if he wanted to cheat him, he probably wouldn't get anything."
"Hehe, who says cheating is only for money? What if he's after his kidneys? Haven't you heard that some important figures specifically need these young and healthy kidneys to..." someone else said.
At this moment, someone in the crowd sighed softly, shook his head, and said, "Let go of the urge to help, respect others' fate. Our own lives are already so difficult, why bother inviting trouble for ourselves?"
The others nodded in agreement upon hearing this, expressing their approval: "This young man dares to come out and swindle, maybe there's an Influence backing him. We ordinary folks can't afford to offend them!"
The crowd turned and left one after another. All these words fell into Zhuge Feng's ears. He looked up and saw that Su Bai's back had already disappeared from his sight.
Heh, there's nowhere else to go anyway.
If he wants to cheat, let him cheat!
But what if, it's real?
Thinking of this, he quickly sped up to follow, chasing after Su Bai's footsteps.
Seeing Zhuge Feng follow, Su Bai smiled slightly. It seemed that the task of recruiting a Disciple was about to be completed!
"Stop!"
Not long after leaving the Hundred Sects Meet, suddenly, a sweet shout rang out.
Su Bai looked up and saw a young woman glaring angrily at him.
The young woman before him had willow-leaf eyebrows like distant mountains covered in mist, a tall and beautiful nose bridge, red lips and white teeth, skin fairer than snow, and hair reaching her waist.
Holy crap, what a beautiful young woman!
Even when angry, it didn't affect her demeanor!

"Little girl, what are you doing?"
The young woman looked at Su Bai with a face full of disdain and said to Zhuge Feng, "This is a swindler, don't be fooled by him!"
Su Bai couldn't help but laugh, "Miss, mere words are no proof. Do you have evidence to prove I am a swindler?"
The young woman snorted and said, "All Influences require you to be a handyman for half a year first, and only after becoming a formal Disciple can you access Sublime Methods. You say you can Cultivate Sublime Methods just by entering the Sect, if that's not a swindler, what is?"
Su Bai was amused and said, "Miss, what does it have to do with my Sect, where you can learn Sublime Methods upon entering, if other Influences take half a year to access them?"
"How can there be such a benevolent Sect? What else could it be but a swindler?" The young woman clearly didn't believe him.
"If you don't believe me, so be it." Su Bai pursed his lips, too lazy to argue with her.
He looked at Zhuge Feng and said, "If you believe me, come with me. If you don't believe me, leave."
Although he urgently needed a Disciple, he would absolutely not force anyone!
Having said that, Su Bai turned and left. Whether Zhuge Feng believed him or not was his own business.
Seeing this, Zhuge Feng gritted his teeth and finally made a decision: "Disciple believes in Immortal Master!"
Hearing this, Su Bai stopped in his tracks and turned around in surprise: "You still believe me?"
"Yes, Disciple believes in Immortal Master!" Zhuge Feng nodded heavily.
"Then let's go!" Su Bai smiled easily and started walking.
This feeling of being believed was quite nice.
While Su Bai felt good about it, Xiao Lingxi was about to go crazy.
She hadn't expected that there would be such a stubborn person like Zhuge Feng in this world!
He was clearly a swindler, yet he still believed him?
"Damn it, this bastard, I must expose your true colors!" Xiao Lingxi stomped her foot fiercely and chased after Su Bai.
"Not you, Miss, why are you following again?" Su Bai was speechless. Was this girl like a sticky plaster?
Xiao Lingxi let out a cold snort and righteously said, "I'm going to expose you, the swindler!"
"It's already dark, why is a little girl like you not going home and pestering me instead?" Su Bai rolled his eyes. He truly didn't understand what was going on in this girl's head.
"You don't need to worry about that, I can protect myself!" Xiao Lingxi raised her head, revealing a precious sword at her waist.
