Recalling the attack of the student sweeping the floor just now, the two vice deans felt like crying.
It was as if the other party was able to see through the flaws in their moves. No matter how they tried to dodge, the other party would still be able to strike their faces.
If not for the fact that their strength had reached the Primordial Soul Realm and their strong physical bodies, they would probably not be able to get up now.
He had thought that the student who was sweeping the floor was just an exception, but after being defeated in a single move, he chose another random student from the Xuanxuan Faction … and in the end, he lost even more miserably!
At the same level, they were no match for those fellows at all!
"How many training sessions?"
Looking at the pitiful state the two vice principals were in, Zhang Yinqiu recalled the words that the young man had told him, and his lips twitched uncontrollably. Just what in the world did this Zhang Shi train? To cause these students to undergo such earth-shattering changes?
Unable to hold himself back any longer, Zhang Xuan turned to the Byzantium Helios Beast beneath him and asked.
The Byzantium Helios Beast shook his head. "President Zhang has indeed conducted lessons for those students, but … I am not too sure about the details!"
Most of its time was spent cultivating in the Myriad Anthive Nest, so it didn't know much about the happenings in the academy.
"Let's go find Mo Zhu and the others!"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was unaware of the matter, the trio hurriedly made their way over to the Elder Hall. Not too long later, they met Zhao Bingxu, Mo Zhu, and the others. After exchanging pleasantries, they couldn't help but voice the doubts in their hearts.
"I see. The Combat Master Hall sent two batches of candidates to challenge us, and they were defeated so badly that they lost their confidence. When they returned, they cried pitifully, and when they heard that they were going to challenge us, they fled in the middle of the night, not daring to meet us anymore."
Mo Zhu explained what had happened in detail.
"Are you sure it's not us students who have lost confidence?"
The three deans were driven mad.
In the two years that they had been trapped in the ancient domain, what had the Master Teacher Academy gone through?
"Not only so, President Zhang has also tamed all of the saint beasts and spirit beasts on the Cloudmist Ridge and distributed them to the students of the Beast Tamer School. Right now, just the number of Perfect Harmonization realm and above spirit beasts in our Beast Tamer School has already exceeded twenty thousand. On top of that, Principal Zhang's public lecture has more than doubled the fighting prowess of the entire Beast Tamer School …"
Ignoring the astonished gazes of the trio, Mo Zhu continued explaining the changes in the academy.
The more Zhang Xuan spoke, the stiffer the bodies of the three school heads became. Before he could finish his words, the three school heads had already been petrified.
Previously, they were worried that this President Zhang was too young and would not be able to manage the academy well. Only now did they realize that their management skills were far inferior compared to him …
They even doubted each other. What a joke …
…
Ten days later.
On a massive warship, Zhang Xuan was standing on the deck of the warship, looking ahead. Tens of thousands of members of the Xuanxuan Faction were seated in the hold of the warship, and every single one of them had an excited look on their faces.
After making all the necessary preparations, Zhang Xuan conducted another five lectures over the next ten days before leading the group back to the Qingyuan Conferred Empire.
At this moment, the Master Teacher Academy's flying ship was finally completed. It was massive, and they had to find several dozen saint beasts to lift it up.
For the exchange with the Combat Master Hall, Zhang Yinqiu, Vice Principal Ji Yan, and the others had stayed behind in Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy, so Zhang Xuan only brought Elder Mi and Pavilion Master Mo Gaoyuan with him.
Zhang Xuan had already made up his mind that he would not be able to return to Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy for long, and there was a good chance that he might not return at all. Thus, he decided to return the position of principal to Zhang Yinqiu.
However, the latter refused to agree to it no matter what. After all, he was still in a half-dead state at the moment. For a principal of the Master Teacher Academy to be in such a state, it would be a disgrace to his dignity as a master teacher.
Since Zhang Yinqiu refused to agree to it, he could only continue being the nominal principal of the Master Teacher Academy. As for the affairs of the Master Teacher Academy, he left them to the other party to handle.
Over the past ten days, Zhang Xuan had studied quite a few books on smithing to see if he could help Jin Yuan Ding recover. However, it was a pity that the standard of smithing in Hongyuan City was simply too low. While he might be able to regenerate Jin Yuan Ding's consciousness, it would be impossible for him to do so.
Jin Yuan Ding had ended up in such a state in order to save them, so naturally, he couldn't allow him to die. After much consideration, Zhang Xuan decided to head to the Qingyuan Conferred Empire first to learn more advanced smithing techniques before finding a way to help Jin Yuan Ding recover.
Looking at the drifting clouds and the howling wind, Zhang Xuan could not help but sigh deeply.
Yesterday, the day before he was to set off for the Qingyuan Conferred Empire, Lozosy had looked for him and told him that she had some matters to attend to, so she would be leaving Hongyuan Conferred Empire. As reluctant as Zhang Xuan was, he still nodded in agreement.
In any case, now that he knew her identity, he didn't have to worry about not being able to meet her in the future.
Wu Shi and the others were right. With his current strength, he was still far from being able to stand against a Sage Clan. If he wanted to be together with Luo Ruoxin, he would have to work even harder.
"Zhang Shi, this is a gift from my father and King Huai. Fearing that you wouldn't accept it, they told me to pass it to you only after I left Hongyuan City!"
A crisp voice sounded, and Yu Fei-er walked up to Zhang Xuan.
On this trip to Qingyuan Conferred Empire, Luo Qiqi and Hu Yaoyao had tagged along as well. As members of the Xuanxuan Faction, they were qualified to see the world.
"A gift?" Not expecting Emperor Yu Shenqing to be so courteous, Zhang Xuan took the ring casually.
"I know that Zhang Shi is skilled in smithing and pill forging, so there are some medicinal herbs and ores in the ring. While they aren't particularly valuable, there are quite a lot of them. Perhaps, Zhang Shi might be able to use them in the future!"
Yu Fei-er said with a smile.
As the principal of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy, Zhang Xuan had a bright future ahead of him. Naturally, Yu Shenqing and the others wouldn't let this tree slip by.
Knowing that Yu Fei-er was sincere, Zhang Xuan could only accept it with a bitter smile. "Actually, I should thank your father instead!"
To be honest, if not for Yu Shenqing giving him the seed of the Bodhi Saint Tree, it would have been difficult for him to pass through the Black Sandstorm of Oblivion.
It could be said that he hadn't thanked Emperor Yu Shenqing for this matter yet.
"Zhang Shi, I have encountered some problems with my cultivation. Can you offer me some pointers?" Yu Fei-er turned to Zhang Xuan expectantly and asked.
"Of course, of course," Zhang Xuan replied with a nod.
After offering some pointers, Luo Qiqi, Hu Yaoyao, and Hu Yaoyao also walked up to him. Thus, Zhang Xuan decided to share his recent insights on his cultivation with them.
After hearing Kong Shi's advice, he didn't rush into cultivating. Instead, he spent his time contemplating the matter.
Even though he didn't manage to create any formidable cultivation technique or battle technique, he did manage to reinforce his cultivation further, making it easier for him to cultivate.
Just a few words of explanation would be invaluable advice to any cultivator, and he would benefit greatly from it.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
The three young ladies had made significant improvements.
Yu Fei-er had been at Chrysalis realm pinnacle previously, but after three months of cultivation, not only did she manage to reach Half-Saint, she even reached pinnacle! Hu Yaoyao had even reached Nascent Saint pinnacle!
Of course, the one who had improved the fastest wasn't the duo but Luo Qiqi. Two months ago, she had been at Chrysalis realm pinnacle, just like Yu Fei-er. But now, just like Zhang Xuan, she had reached Saint 1-dan pinnacle!
Even Zhang Xuan was astonished by her rapid improvement. It could be said that the other party was even faster than him.
It seemed like there really was a talented person among them.
Not only had their cultivation soared, their pill forging skills had advanced by leaps and bounds as well. If not for their lacking cultivation, they would have been able to forge grade-7 primary pills with ease.
While the three of them were improving swiftly, Wang Ying and Liu Yang hadn't been slacking either. Wang Ying had managed to reach Nascent Saint pinnacle from Chrysalis realm primary stage two months ago, and Liu Yang had reached Half-Saint pinnacle as well.
This was due to them cultivating the simplified Saint Ascension Decipher. Had they cultivated an ordinary cultivation technique, they would have long reached higher realms.
Sun Qiang was still progressing slowly. Even though he wasn't putting his heart and soul into his cultivation, he had met Zhang Xuan, who was able to provide him with targeted guidance. On top of that, he had access to all kinds of resources. Even though his progress was slow compared to Luo Qiqi, Wang Ying, and the others, he was still as fast as a rocket compared to the other students.
At this moment, he had reached Ethereal Treading realm pinnacle, just a step away from reaching Chrysalis realm.
Over the past month, Zhang Xuan had managed to reinforce his Saint 1-dan pinnacle cultivation. Even though he hadn't achieved a breakthrough yet, his true prowess was already invincible beneath Primordial Spirit realm.
More importantly, his Soul Depth had reached 21.1 after the Soul Tempering of a Mentor's Calligraphy, putting him on par with a Seven Star master teacher. And now, after the Saint Ascension Ordeal and the accumulation of his Soul Depth, his Soul Depth had risen by 2.0, reaching 23.1.
Just like cultivation, the higher one's Soul Depth was, the harder it was to raise one's Soul Depth. It was extremely easy to raise one's Soul Depth from 1.0 to 3.0, but to raise it from 21.1 to 23.1 was several dozen times more difficult.
However, if not for the Heart Ordeal of the Saint Ascension Ordeal being too easy to deal with, his Soul Depth would have surely increased by more than this.
As they cultivated, they did not speak much. The flying ship flew for an entire month, and only then did the group see a huge city slowly appear before them.
They had arrived at the capital of Qingyuan Empire, Qingyuan City!
While Zhang Xuan and the others had arrived at Qingyuan City, Poison Master Bai Ting and Poison Master Hai Mingjin had also arrived at the Poison Temple headquarters with Wei Ruyan.
