Lin Yuan truly regretted it.
He hadn’t realized that having apprentices had this advantage.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
If he had known earlier, he would have taken on more apprentices, letting them earn reputation for him.
It must be simpler than working hard on his own to earn reputation!
Thankfully, there was still Xue Liang…
If it could be said that Lin Yuan previously taught Xue Liang just to complete the system task in order to permanently obtain Yang Zhongming’s character card, now he sincerely wanted to cultivate Xue Liang into his main apprentice until Xue Liang formally graduated!
Under normal circumstances.
For Xue Liang to graduate, it was of course not an easy matter, even if his teacher on the surface was Lin Yuan, but in reality, it was Maestro-
Lin Zhongming Yang Yuan.
But Lin Yuan had the Teacher’s Halo.
This thing was a tool for teaching apprentices. Even people with extensive teaching experience couldn’t compete with it.
Moreover, Lin Yuan was essentially giving Maestro a Teacher’s Halo.
There were no better teachers than Maestro with a Teacher’s Halo!

Therefore.
The next day.
After Lin Yuan finished teaching Xue Liang, he suddenly made a decision: “Not just on weekends, from now on you will study with me for two hours every day. I’ll send you my address. You can come to my place when I finish school.”
Just like yesterday.
After learning composition with Lin Yuan for two hours, Xue Liang felt that he had gained a lot!
This was countless times more useful than his self-study from university composition textbooks, or paying to take some online courses.
When Xue Liang heard Mr. Lin say he could learn this way for two hours every day from now on, he was overjoyed!
“Thankyou, Mr. Lin! Mr. Lin…”
“What’s up?”
“Can I call you Master?”
“As you wish.”
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
Lin Yuan didn’t care about what he was called.
He was just a bit distressed now, because the effect of his character card was only two hours every day.
If he used it on Xue Liang, then he wouldn’t be able to use it himself.
But in order to fast-track this apprentice’s education, he had to make this choice.
Anyway, there would be plenty of time in the future. The character card was his and it was up to him how to use it.
“Master!”
Xue Liang respectfully called.
Lin Yuan nodded.
Just then.
A system’s voice suddenly echoed in Lin Yuan’s mind, “Congratulations host, you’ve acquired your first apprentice. You may now view the apprentice’s information.”
A thought flashed across Lin Yuan’s mind and within the music category, he saw Xue Liang’s information:
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
[Name: Xue Liang]
[Composing Ability: 409]
[Relationship: Master-Apprentice]
[Status: Not yet graduated]
[Other: Not unlocked]
[Note: The capability value’s full score is 1000. The minimal ability standard for an industry-recognized, gold-standard composer is 600. Once Xue Liang’s ability reaches above 600, he will formally graduate]
So that’s how it was.
As long as he could boost Xue Liang’s composing ability score to over 600, that would be considered having successfully taught this apprentice.
That’s right.
He could totally find an apprentice who could draw! It looked like when he had time, he’d need to pop by Qi Art’s drawing society.
Check for good talent that would be worth teaching.
“Alright, you can go now,” Lin Yuan said.
“Okay, goodbye, master!”
Xue Liang respectfully bowed, then left Lin Yuan’s office.
Not long after Xue Liang left, Gu Qiangyun came, his face plastered with a smile, his hands holding a few documents: “Mr. Lin, these are our recent intention forms. There are four in total. Take a look and see if any interest you?”
Lin Yuan nodded.
Among them, two were like “Like You”, classified as OST orders.
The so-called OST generally referred to original soundtracks for television dramas or movies—the most common type of order in Qi Continent.
Of the other two, one was a game order, the other was a private order.
After briefly considering, Lin Yuan didn’t immediately make a choice, because these orders’ prices were all not high, with the most expensive one being only two million.
“Mr. Lin.”
Gu Qiangyun guessed Lin Yuan’s thoughts and hesitated for a moment before saying, “This is just a list of intentions, the specifics still need to be discussed. If you haven’t made a choice yet, I can continue to filter the selection.”
Lin Yuan nodded his agreement.
Just as Gu Qiangyun was preparing to take away the files, Lin Yuan pointed to a private order and said, “Leave this one here.”
Gu Qiangyun was surprised.
The order was private in nature, priced at only 700,000. He hadn’t expected Lin Yuan to be interested in it.
Lin Yuan explained, “I plan to leave it for Xue Liang.”
Teaching alone wasn’t enough. To quickly improve Xue Liang’s composition skills, he needed some practical work.
This order could be a chance for Xue Liang to practice, it was a test provided by Lin Yuan for Xue Liang.
Gu Qiangyun was taken aback.
Of course, he knew that Lin Yuan had been teaching Xue Liang composition recently.
But could Xue Liang, with his abilities, really fulfill an order of this 700,000- level magnitude?
After a brief hesitation, he nodded, “Okay.”
Lin Yuan nodded in acknowledgment.
Then Gu Qiangyun left.
The next day.
Lin Yuan resumed his regular school routine.
After school, when he returned home, he was somewhat annoyed to find Jian Yi cooking again.
The previous steak and snail noodles had left some psychological shadow on Lin Yuan, even though he had courageously finished them.
He was unsure about what kind of horror dish Jian Yi might create today.
Just then.
There was a knock on the door.
Upon opening it, Lin Yuan found it was none other than his only disciple, Xue Liang standing there.
“Master.”
Xue Liang saluted.
Lin Yuan nodded, “Come in.”
Once Xue Liang entered and saw another person there, he hurriedly greeted him, “Hello, I am Xue Liang, master’s disciple.”
“Hello, Jian Yi…” Jian Yi finished his greeting and looked at Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan said, “I’m his master.”
Jian Yi laughed, “Well done Lin Yuan, even accepting disciples now. So should this new friend of ours call me ‘Junior Uncle’?”
Xue Liang seriously said, “Hello Junior Uncle.”
Jian Yi was startled for a moment, not expecting the child to be so honest. He quickly waved his hands and said, “I’m just joking. Just call me Jian Yi.”
Xue Liang honestly said, “Politeness must not be neglected, you are master’s friend. I’ll call you Brother Jian.”
Jian Yi waved, “You’re probably older than me, you can call me whatever you like.”
This Xue Liang was an honest person, because of his honesty, he appeared somewhat stiff.
Then Jian Yi suddenly felt something was off, were he and Lin Yuan of different generations?
Never mind, they were all their own.
“Let’s order takeout.”
Lin Yuan had no faith in Jian Yi’s cooking abilities.
Xue Liang volunteered, “Are you cooking? I can help.”
Jian Yi asked, “Do you know how to cook?”
Xue Liang nodded, “Yes, master.”
Twenty minutes later, looking at the three delicious dishes on the table, Jian Yi’s opinion of Xue Liang had changed, “Culinary genius, brother! You have to teach me later!”
Xue Liang said, “No problem, Brother Jian, you’re flattering me.”
Lin Yuan tasted a bite and was also very surprised. This taste was nothing short of a master chef’s!
Xue Liang, reserved and refined.
This meal, he had two full bowls, which showed how tormented he had been by Jian Yi’s cooking before.
After dinner, Lin Yuan took Xue Liang to his bedroom.
“We start the lesson.”
With the activation of the Teaching Aura, Lin Yuan’s eyes became serious.
Xue Liang was also very serious, he treated his master and master’s lesson with the utmost reverence.
This time, the teaching session still lasted two hours.
After finishing the class, Lin Yuan deliberately checked Xue Liang’s composition ability value.
Surprisingly, Xue Liang’s rating had increased a bit!
Previously, it was 409.
And now it was 415.
This was faster than Lin Yuan had imagined.
Perhaps it wouldn’t be long before Lin Yuan could look forward to the day Xue Liang graduated…
