Lin Yi was able to take out paper and brush in an unnoticed moment and complete a painting on a palm-sized piece of paper. This just goes to show that Lin Yi's painting skills had almost reached a miraculous level.
"This... I'm afraid taking a disciple—"
Lin Yi hesitated, as he had come to Nan Zhao Country for ten thousand tons of jade. Taking a disciple would surely delay important matters.
Unexpectedly, Hua Wudao insisted, "Master above, may I make a small request? I won't take the ten thousand taels of gold you promised earlier, but could I exchange it for an opportunity to become your disciple?"
Back to the matter of ten thousand taels of gold, Lin Yi appeared somewhat troubled. After pondering for a short while, he decided to gift Hua Wudao a book to improve his painting skills.
