Hall Head Zhou burst into tears.
As the head of the Weapon Division, he had devoted his entire life to the art of the spear, and he had spent more than eight hundred years studying it … It would have been one thing if the other party had cultivated for a longer period of time, but after all, everyone possessed different talents. There were some who specialized in it, and some who didn't.
More importantly, the young man before him specialized in fist arts and spear arts … In just four hours, the other party was already able to defeat him so easily …
"This … I can't remember. It could be more than four hours …"
Seeing the other party's face twitching, Liu Yang hurriedly explained in embarrassment.
Back then, in order to accept the challenge from the Combat Master Hall, Zhang Xuan, Wang Ying, and Zheng Yang had exchanged their trump cards with one another, and they had imparted their knowledge to one another without holding back.
Due to the lack of time, everyone learned very quickly. When it came to learning the spear art, it only took them … four hours …
No, it seemed to be less than four hours. Was it three hours, or an hour?
I was too focused that I forgot … Why can't I remember …
Liu Yang looked conflicted.
"Alright …"
Seeing how Zhang Xuan was consoling him with a conflicted look on his face, Division Head Zhou felt his chest churning, and he nearly spurted a mouthful of blood.
"I'm the leader of the Palm Division, Yan Qinghai. Does anyone want to fight me?"
Seeing that the head of the Weapon Hall had been defeated, another elder stepped forward.
"Palm technique?" Liu Yang frowned and nodded. "Let me do it …"
"Alright, you've just finished your battle. Take a break. Let me do it …" Wang Ying said as he walked over.
"Senior Sister, he specializes in palm techniques, which are somewhat similar to fist techniques. You specialize in leg techniques, so let me do it!"
Not expecting Wang Ying to vie for it, Liu Yang shook his head.
"I have just learned a palm art from my teacher, but I haven't tried it out yet. I don't know how powerful it is, so I would like to give it a try," Wang Ying said.
"Teacher also taught me that move. I want to try it too …"
Liu Yang said.
"Alright, why are you so ungentlemanly? You just fought, shouldn't you be resting? What if someone challenges me later and I lose? "Wang Ying frowned.
"There was a fight just now. It's not like you didn't see it. It wasn't challenging at all, okay? I didn't even use a thousandth of my zhenqi, and I was able to recover in just two breaths. I don't need to rest at all... "
Liu Yang said.
"…" Division Head Zhou.
"..." Hall Master Yan.
"…" Mingshi Tang and the others.
F * ck!
Can't you respect your opponent a little?
We are still alive, not dead …
No matter what, we are still the top experts of the Combat Master Hall. For you to look down on us like that, do you have any respect for us?
Even if he didn't care about him, he should at least give him some face …
"You're the Senior Sister, you have the final say …"
After arguing for a long time, Wang Ying finally got the chance to make a move as the Senior Sister.
"Begin!"
With an excited look on his face, Wang Ying walked up to the head of the Palm Division, Yan Qinghai, and said, "I have just learned my palm art not too long ago, and I have never fought with anyone before. I don't know how powerful it is, so I beseech you to go easy on me …"
"It's too late to beg for mercy now …"
Yan Qinghai was already on the verge of exploding. Seeing that she had stepped forward and said those words, he let out a furious roar. Without any mercy, he immediately executed his strongest move.
Rumble!
Before his palm even reached Zhang Xuan, the pressure from his strength caused the air to explode like a pot of boiling oil.
Saint-tier battle technique, Crimson Dragon Palm!
Legend had it that crimson dragons lived in lava, and their heat was incomparable. The Crimson Dragon Palm harnessed a pure yang cultivation technique that could melt even steel.
With this move, Yan Qinghai could be considered one of the top combat masters in the Combat Master Hall.
Hu!
Seeing Yan Qinghai's attack, Wang Ying was just about to dodge out of habit, but after a moment of thought, she realized that it would be a battle of palms this time around. Thus, gritting her teeth, she executed the palm art that her teacher had imparted to her.
Heavenly Demon Great Sorrow Palm!
It was said that her teacher had only learned this move not too long ago, and he had never used it in battle before.
The two palms collided.
Sou!
"AHHH!"
With a scream of agony, Yan Qinghai was sent flying. While he was in midair, he suppressed his cultivation and slowly regained his strength before he finally came to a stop.
"Did you really just learn a palm art? You haven't fought with anyone before? "
Yan Qinghai felt a sharp pain in his chest.
"That's right. On the way here, my teacher told me that he had just learned a palm art, and it wasn't too bad. He wanted us to practice it, so I decided to try it out. However, I felt that it was troublesome to cultivate it, and I needed to build up my emotions. I only practiced it a few times, and I found it boring, so I never used it again!"
Wang Ying said.
The greatest flaw of this palm art was that it required one to build up one's emotions. She was only a teenager, so how could she possibly understand emotions? After practicing it for a period of time, she found it boring, so she never practiced it again.
"Boring? Such a powerful palm art isn't interesting at all? "
The pain in Yan Qinghai's chest intensified.
Even though the other party had only used a single move, the might of that palm art had far surpassed all of the ultimate moves that he had learned in the past!
Despite such might, the young lady before him actually said that it was troublesome to cultivate … and boring …
Unable to hold himself back any longer, Yan Qinghai asked anxiously, "Can you … teach me this move?"
"Of course! Our teacher is a magnanimous person, and he doesn't hide anything from you. If you wish to learn it, I can impart it to you right now, "Wang Ying said with a smile.
Ever since she started cultivating, she had never practiced such a troublesome move. Not only did she have to build up one's spirit, she also had to invest her emotions into it … It was simply too troublesome!
In her view, it shouldn't be a formidable move at all. Since the other party wanted to learn it, she wouldn't mind imparting it to him.
"C-can you impart it to me?"
Yan Qinghai's face paled, but a moment later, a grim expression appeared on his face. "From now on, I will join the Xuanxuan Faction. I'll fight anyone who dares to persuade me to leave!"
"…" Hall Master Xing.
"…" The other division heads.
"I am Division Head Wu of the Leg Division! I am willing to compete with you … "
Everyone fell silent for a moment before an elder stepped forward. However, before he could finish his words, Hall Master Xing had already stepped forward and said, "Alright, fighting and killing will only damage the harmony between the two young friends. It seems like these two young friends have expended quite a bit of their energy, so let's call it a day!"
"Hall Master …"
Seeing that Hall Master Xing had stopped him, Division Head Wu panicked.
Weren't they here to cause trouble?
How could they give up halfway?
"Cough cough. Alright, Division Head Wu, let's call it a day. In any case, those from the Xuanxuan Faction won't be leaving, so we can still have some time to interact in the future …"
Hall Master Xing said.
If they didn't stop their interactions, he feared that all of the division heads would become members of the Xuanxuan Faction. If that were to happen, it would truly be embarrassing.
"Alright then!"
Division Head Wu also came to a realization, and a hint of reluctance surfaced in his eyes.
The battle techniques that the two young men had executed earlier were truly frightening, and he was tempted to learn them as well. However, judging from the look on Hall Master Xing's face, if a few more division heads were to learn from him today, he would surely go insane. No, that won't do. Forget it for now. I'll just sneak over tonight …
"Young friends, may I know where your Principal Zhang Xuan is at the moment?"
Hall Master Xing turned to Zhang Xuan and said with a smile, "Hall Master Xing, you're right.
"My teacher left early in the morning, and he hasn't returned yet."
Wang Ying replied.
"He left?"
Hall Master Xing nodded. "Alright, let's wait for your teacher to return before we discuss the matter of the exchange."
"Alright!"
Wang Ying nodded.
"Alright then, we'll be leaving first."
After saying those words, Hall Master Xing hurriedly left with the other hall masters.
Not too long later, they arrived back at the Elder Conference Hall of the Combat Master Hall.
Everyone took a seat, and a moment of silence fell upon them.
Not only did they fail to summon their students over, they even lost two division heads. Of the Ten Division Heads, only six were left. From the looks of it, there were still a few of them who were ready to leave at any moment.
They had been intending to use the prestige and strength of the Combat Master Hall to attract geniuses to the Combat Master Hall after the exchange, but before they could do so, the other party had already attracted their attention.
The more Hall Master Xing thought about the matter, the more stifled he felt.
"What do you all think of the matter today?"
After a long moment of silence, Hall Master Xing took a look at the crowd.
"This … The Xuanxuan Faction does have its strengths. If I'm not mistaken, that young man should be President Zhang's direct disciple. His fist art is truly formidable!"
"Indeed. This is the first time I've seen someone defeating Division Head Chen in a fist art of the same cultivation realm! His spear art is formidable as well, such that even Division Head Zhou wasn't a match for him! "
"To be honest, I think that his palm art is the most profound. With a single strike, it feels as if one is trapped in a dimension, unable to escape from it …"
…
The division heads discussed fervently.
"Cough cough!"
Clutching his chest, Hall Master Xing felt even more stifled.
He had thought that he would be able to come up with some useful suggestions to change the current situation, but in the end … all of them had looks of admiration on their faces. What was the meaning of this?
Did they think that the heritage of our Combat Master Hall was inferior to that of a measly Master Teacher Academy?
"Alright, it's time for everyone to disperse."
Knowing that the other division heads were still overwhelmed by the Xuanxuan Faction's fist art, movement art, spear art, and palm art, Hall Master Xing waved his hands.
"Yes!"
The division heads bowed and left the room.
Soon, the room fell silent, leaving only Hall Master Xing and an elder behind.
The most mysterious of the Ten Combat Master Divisions, the head of the Heart Division, Liao Bujin.
"What do you think of this matter?"
Hall Master Xing asked.
"Reporting to Hall Master Xing, there are pros and cons to this matter. In my opinion, this might not necessarily be a bad thing for our Combat Master Hall," Division Head Liao said.
"A good thing?" Hall Master Xing asked.
Why did he feel that that wasn't the case?
"I have to admit that the Xuanxuan Faction's comprehension of combat is indeed frightening, but … if we can recruit them into our Qingyuan Conferred Empire Combat Master Hall, won't our fighting prowess rise by leaps and bounds? It will only be a matter of time before we surpass the Combat Master Halls of the other Conferred Empires! "
Division Head Liao said.
"This … I understand that as well, but judging from the Xuanxuan Faction's current state, how can they possibly join our Combat Master Hall?" Hall Master Xing shook his head.
"Actually, it's simple. While the Xuanxuan Faction is united, I can tell that they are loyal only to Principal Zhang Xuan. If we can get Zhang Xuan to join our Combat Master Hall, we'll be able to convince them otherwise!" Division Head Liao said with a smile.
"This …" Hall Master Xing hesitated for a moment.
What Division Head Liao said was true. If they could get Zhang Xuan to join the Combat Master Hall, not only would the Xuanxuan Faction not pose a threat to them, they would even be a huge help to them.
Just that …
That would be difficult!
"Principal Zhang is currently at Half-Leaving Aperture realm, so his Primordial Spirit is extremely powerful. If he can find a skilled spirit awakener to nourish his Primordial Spirit, he'll be able to cultivate the Heart Division's Primordial Spirit. Even if he suppresses his cultivation, he'll still be an invincible opponent of the same cultivation realm … By then, we can challenge President Zhang to a duel and bet him to join our Combat Master Hall … Hehe, I'm sure that he'll agree to it!"
Division Head Liao said with a sharp glint in his eyes.
