Teacher Xiao looked calm as he spoke. "Since you brought this to me, I'll obey the academy's rule and take you as my disciple. However, there's something that you might need to know. Although there are ten discipleship tokens like this, there are three pieces that are slightly different."
Chu Jian felt a jolt and said immediately, "Do elaborate, Teacher."
"Three pieces belong to the Crown Prince. Although they're dug from the same rock, there are some faint yellow patterns on them. The color is pale, like a gush of yellow smoke. Therefore, these ten jades were separated. Many didn't know about this," added Teacher Xiao.
Chu Jian's expression changed after hearing that.
The ten pieces of jade were carved with the Royal Academy's insignia. He thought that was the only difference.
