Rumors!

The main reason of accepting Qin Mufeng was that Qin Mufeng had talent and ability. Furthermore, he had no problems with his character. Anyone would like a person like him. Moreover, Qin Mufeng was able to turn the tables without the help of any backing.  Most importantly, he was able to remain calm and composed throughout the entire situation. He did not panic.

Hence, Jian Shuxing was impressed at once. Taking Qin Mufeng in as a disciple was not out of respect for Xi Ting.

Qin Mufeng was so excited that he did not know what to do. Then, he said to Xi Ting, "Brother-in-law, after I become Master Jian's disciple, I will definitely continue to work hard. I will work hard and not lose my master's face."

Xi Ting smiled and said, "You should tell this to your future master."

At this point, Xi Ting said, "In two days, you will have a meal with your master."

This meal was very likely to be a teacher-disciple ceremony.
