B Correct answer
Explanation

The phrase 'May I also (ii) ________?' uses the modal verb 'may' to request permission. Modal verbs are always followed by the base form of the main verb without 'to'. 'Join' is the correct base form, while 'joined' is past tense, 'be joining' is continuous, and 'have joined' is perfect tense - none of which fit grammatically after 'may'.
