"Hey, you've got an extraordinary bone structure and incredible talent. How about becoming my apprentice?"
"Host, you got it wrong. It's 'remarkable bone structure' and 'exceptional talent.'"
The System cried out in alarm inside Ouyang Xiang's mind.
Ouyang Xiang gave a scornful look. "They mean pretty much the same thing. I'm sure he understands me."
"Host, how are those even close? They're completely different!" The System sobbed in his mind.
"Why are you crying? If you hadn't bound yourself to the wrong person, would I have to be here helping you gather energy?" Hearing his Host speak like that, the System immediately shut its mouth, wounded. After all, it had no grounds to argue, so it could only give in.
Ouyang Xiang gritted his teeth inwardly, but still stood there with the bearing of a master.
The stern-faced man looked at the charlatan in front of him. The more he looked, the less trustworthy the guy seemed. He turned to leave, and Ouyang Xiang hurried after him.
"Hey, if you become my apprentice, I'll not only teach you everything I know, I'll give you a discount on today's tuition! Not 998, not 888, just 88! So what are you waiting for? Hurry up and become my apprentice!"
Then the wind blew the leaves from the trees, bringing this self-promotion to an end.
"Host, are you okay?"
"How could I be?"
