Zhi Ying Divine Sovereign had indeed intended to accept Jing Yan as a direct disciple, personally guiding and advising him. But that was before Jing Yan burned his Divine Soul Body.
Once a Martial Artist's Divine Soul Body suffers irreparable damage, what use is there in having even the highest talent or the most exceptional potential?
Zhi Ying Divine Sovereign felt that giving Jing Yan a second chance at apprenticeship was already a great kindness, which was still considering Jing Yan's performance in ascending the twentieth Immortal Bridge.
This remark from Zhi Ying Divine Sovereign made many God Lords present nod in agreement.
The vast majority here probably do not have much faith in Jing Yan's Martial Arts future. Although Jing Yan's current combat power might be stronger than some ordinary Masters of Ten Thousand Gods, with his Divine Soul Body damaged, there is a significant possibility that his Martial Arts realm will gradually decline.
