A warm smile appeared on Yali's face. Even though her eyes had lost their prior light, at this very moment, her smile remained as gentle as before.
"You can address me as Grandteacher. Inheriting his Atlas Divine Spear signifies that I'm taking you as my disciple on his behalf. The spear contains his entire legacy." Yali lifted the Atlas Divine Spear and presented it before Tang Wulin.
Tang Wulin gripped the spear shaft as a multitude of feelings surged in his heart. He knelt on the floor and lifted the Atlas Divine Spear in his hands high up into the air.
"I, Tang Wulin, am pleased to formally acknowledge you as grandteacher." As he spoke, he lifted the Atlas Divine Spear and gave three kowtows to Yali.
Yali's eyes had long since run out of tears and there was only gratitude left.
