Chapter: 1828
Zhao Yiguang laughed heartily as he looked at the rest of the members.
Although Tang Ik-gi was right in front of them, the other members didn�t even spare a glance at him. They were all busy chatting among themselves.
Zhao Yiguang turned to them and said,�
�Now, pay attention, everyone. I have a new friend here who wants to join us today. I ask all of you to freely express your opinions on this matter.�
Only when Zhao Yiguan spoke did everyone�s eyes turned to Tang Ik-gi.
Tang Ik-gi�s face flushed red with embarassment
He was the successor to the Cheolsan family, a well-recognized and influential family in the region, yet here he was being treated like this. It was truly shameful. But, he had no choice.
If he couldn�t receive the approval of all these individuals then he wouldn�t be able to enter the Golden Heaven Society.
After Jang Mugeuk became the leader of the Golden Heaven Society, the status and prestige of the organization became even more remarkable.�
It had already been difficult to become a member in the past, but after Jang Mugeuk became its head, the process became even more stringent, to the point where some people didn�t even dare to apply for membership.
If a person is affiliated with a sect in Jianghu, being a member of the Golden Heaven Society is necessary to receive favorable treatment.
Tang Ik-gi regretted not joining the Golden Heaven Society earlier. If he had joined earlier, he wouldn�t have had to go through this rigorous process right now.
�How could we accept a new member when we already have so many? Having another one join doesn�t sit well with me.�
�Wouldn�t it be better to stabilize our current members first before accepting new ones?�
Negative sentiments immediately spread amongst the group.
Just as Tang Ik-gi�s face was turning dark, Eum Yujeong unexpectedly spoke up,�
�Hoho! Rejecting someone who has come this far so openly would be too harsh, wouldn�t it? How about this? Let�s accept him as a temporary member for now, and see how he behaves. Depending on his behavior, we can decide whether or not we should accept him as a full member. Of course, if we deem him unsuitable, we can simply reject him, right?��
�Oh! Lady Eum has a point.�
�Lady Eum�s thoughts are indeed profound. I agree with Lady Eum�s idea.�
�I also think it�s best to follow Lady Eum�s suggestion.�
The other members echoed their agreement with Eum Yujeong�s opinion. Only Zhao Yiguang furrowed his brow, showing his displeasure.
Tang Ik-gi couldn�t help but feel uneasy as he noticed Zhao Yiguang�s reaction.
No matter how favorable Eum Yujeong was towards him, he knew that if Zhao Yiguang refused, it would still be the end.
Eum Yujeong was well aware of that fact as well. So as if she had a good idea, Eum Yujeong whispered to Zhao Yiguang,
As he listened to her, a faint smile appeared on Zhao Yiguang�s lips.�
�Well, what if we do it this way?�
Everyone�s attention then focused on Zhao Yiguang.
Enjoying the attention, Zhao Yiguang continued,
�Let�s indeed accept brother Tang as a temporary member for now. However, to become a full member, brother Tang needs to make a significant contribution.�
