The Xuanxuan Faction, as well as Wang Ying and the others, widened their eyes in realization.
They turned to look at Zhang Xuan once more, and they couldn't help but feel deep admiration for him.
Their teacher was their teacher, and their principal was their principal!
They had spent a great deal of effort to convince three hundred combat masters to join the Xuanxuan Faction. Yet, this young man actually dashed straight to the Combat Master Hall headquarters and accepted all of the combat masters as his students …
Regardless of whether it was in terms of vision or means, the other party was far superior to them …
Seeing the looks of admiration on the faces of the combat masters, Zhang Xuan's face turned livid.
He was just in the midst of berating the combat masters when such a thing happened … His words were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't bring himself to say them.
At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little stifled. He finally understood how stifled Hall Master Xing felt.
"There's no need to stand on ceremony. Didn't you say that you wanted to raise your fighting prowess? This is the Xuanxuan Faction that I founded. Feel free to interact with one another. "
Zhang Xuan waved his hand.
"Yes!"
The combat masters nodded.
"You should interact with them and learn from our friends from the Combat Master Hall. Even though you might be able to surpass them in terms of combat sense and fighting prowess, your battle techniques, fist art, palm art, movement technique … and even your state of mind are far beneath theirs. You still need to work harder! "
Zhang Xuan instructed.
While the combat masters of the Xuanxuan Faction were no match for the combat masters of the Combat Master Hall, in terms of fundamentals and physical prowess, the combat masters of the Xuanxuan Faction were definitely no match for them.
The foundation of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy was simply too weak. Regardless of which aspect it was viewed from, it was still far from matching up to a colossus like the Combat Master Hall.
"You are from the Xuanxuan Faction? I heard that Xiao Qin and the others have joined you. Are you still recruiting? "
"If not for the tight security of the Combat Master Hall, we would have long gone over!"
"I heard that you are very strong in your cultivation realm. Interested in having a match with me? "
"I sure would like to see how you fight …"
…
The combat masters and the members of the Xuanxuan Faction walked together.
Even though the Xuanxuan Faction had kept a tight lid on the matter regarding Xiao Qin and the five division Heads, they still managed to learn a thing or two about it. As such, they were filled with curiosity toward this organization from a Tianxuan Empire.
Now that they knew that Sun Mo was the one who had taught them, they felt even more excited.
. "Very soon, the sparring partners," Zhang Xuan.
Xiao Qin was the first to make a move, and he swiftly defeated his fellow Combat Master Hall comrades.
Those whom he had been unable to defeat previously would not be able to last more than three moves in front of him.
Even if Zhang Xuan did not personally teach him, Wang Ying and the others had obtained the essence of it and seriously explained it to him, which was also a great benefit to him.
On top of that, he was a combat prodigy to begin with. Three days wasn't a long time, but his strength had increased by leaps and bounds, more than doubling from before.
"We are willing to join the Xuanxuan Faction.
Seeing how the combat masters who had joined the Xuanxuan Faction had undergone such a drastic transformation, they couldn't hold themselves back any longer.
"Sigh. The Qingyuan Conferred Empire Combat Master Hall has been around for more than ten thousand years, but who could have thought that it would be destroyed in my hands?"
Seeing the sight before him, Hall Master Xing knew that it would be impossible for him to persuade Zhang Xuan to stop this matter anymore. His heart ached so much that he found himself unable to breathe.
As the head of the Combat Master Hall, it was one thing for him to fail to bring the Combat Master Hall to greater heights, but on top of that, he had actually allowed it to join an organization of a Tier-1 Empire … Even though he had mentally prepared himself for this, he still found it hard to accept.
"Hall Master, there's no need to be disheartened. Not only is this not bad for us, it's actually a good thing!"
Unknowingly, Feng Xun walked over.
He had been in seclusion for the past three days, waiting for the exchange to begin. He didn't expect to see such a sight as soon as he came out, and he couldn't help but feel a little shocked.
However, when he recalled the various miracles that Zhang Shi had displayed, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
Even though he wasn't aware of the matter regarding the Ascension to Celestial Saint, he still remembered the many affairs that had happened in the Qiu Wu Palace. Under the guidance of a master teacher like Zhang Xuan, their Combat Master Hall would surely grow swiftly, and it would only be a matter of time before they surpassed their peers.
"A good thing?"
Hall Master Xing, Division Head Liao, and the others turned to look at Feng Xun.
"Indeed. Zheng Yang, who Zhuo Qingfeng brought to the Progeny of Combat, is the direct disciple of Zhang Xuan and Zhang Shi."
Feng Xun nodded with excitement in his eyes. "If he were to clear the Progeny of Combat, he would become the head of the Combat Master Hall. Furthermore, he's also a member of the Xuanxuan Faction! "
"This …" Hall Master Xing and the others were taken aback.
They hadn't thought too much about this matter before.
"Even if he doesn't become the Progeny of Combat, the fact that he's able to participate in the Xuanxuan Faction's selection shows that his fighting prowess will at the very least become an elder. With him around, even if our Combat Master Hall were to join the Xuanxuan Faction, who would dare mock us?"
Feng Xun continued.
Hall Master Xing and the others fell silent.
Speaking of which, that was indeed the case.
While seniority was important on the Master Teacher Continent, what mattered even more was that the stronger one would become the teacher.
Regardless of age, as long as one's fighting prowess far surpassed one's, one would be worthy of acknowledging as one's teacher. Not only would one not be mocked by others, one would even be respected.
In fact, Kong Shi had acknowledged quite a few people who were weaker than him as their teacher!
It wasn't shameful to acknowledge someone weaker than him as his teacher. What was shameful was that despite being weak, he had to pretend to be a formidable figure and not ask about it!
If Zheng Yang were to become the Progeny of Combat, it would only be a matter of time before he became the head of the Combat Master Hall. Since the head of the Combat Master Hall was already a member of the Xuanxuan Faction, what was there to be embarrassed about?
Even if he couldn't become the head of the Combat Master Hall, he would still be proud of it.
"I understand now!"
Hearing those words, Hall Master Xing heaved a sigh of relief as the knot in his heart was finally unraveled. He turned to look at Zhang Xuan once more with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
For a young man in his twenties to be able to make the Combat Master Hall, which had existed for more than ten thousand years, submit to him willingly, that was indeed a fearsome feat.
"His teacher is probably no pushover as well!"
Hall Master Xing remarked.
"Indeed. Zhang Shi's teacher is known as Yang Xuan, and his strength has reached an unfathomable level …" Feng Xun nodded.
"Yang Xuan?" Hall Master Xing frowned. "Could it be …"
"What's wrong? Hall Master Xing has heard of that master teacher before? "
"I seem to have heard from my teacher that there's a Yang shi in the headquarters of the Mingshi Tang Empire, and his strength has reached an unfathomable level. However, I'm not too sure if that Yang shi's name is Yang Xuan or not!"
Hall Master Xing said.
"Hall Master Xing's teacher? Are you referring to the 8-star Combat Master Tong Qianqiu known as the Crimson Inferno Vajra? "Division Head Liao asked.
Even though the other party had never mentioned his teacher before, the two of them had spent several hundred years together, so they were still able to gather some information.
The Crimson Inferno Vajra, Tong Qianqiu, was a renowned combat master even in the Empire Alliance. His iron palms were unparalleled, and he had once slaughtered tens of thousands of Otherworldly Demons in a single battle.
"Un." Hall Master Xing nodded.
"Since Combat Master Tong has said so, it's likely that Yang shi is really his teacher … It's no wonder he possesses such strength and talent at such a young age. With the guidance of such a formidable master teacher, his future is bound to be limitless!"
Feng Xun said.
In the past, he had harbored thoughts of competing with the other party, but those thoughts had long vanished from his mind.
There was no way he would be able to compete with the other party, so there was no reason for him to humiliate himself.
Only by recognizing one's limits would one be able to walk further and further. Biting off more than one could chew would only result in a stagnant state.
…
While Hall Master Xing was trying to resolve the matter, Zhang Xuan was also extremely busy.
The interaction between the two organizations wasn't that simple.
In the end, under everyone's request, Zhang Xuan conducted a lecture, and only then did he manage to leave everyone excited and satisfied.
"Here are the fist art, palm art, movement art, defense, and soul cultivation techniques that I have compiled over the past few days. I want the two of you to memorize them and cultivate them well. When you're free, I'll impart them to you!"
By the time Zhang Xuan was done with his lecture, the sky had already darkened. Thus, he headed straight to the Combat Master Hall. After which, Zhang Xuan called Wang Ying and Liu Yang over and instructed them.
Over the past few days, not only had he been studying, he had also compiled a set of cultivation technique manuals that ordinary people could cultivate. Since they were here, he would impart them to them.
"Yes!"
Wang Ying and the others nodded. Flipping open the books, they swiftly memorized the contents before destroying them with a flick of their hands.
If those secret manuals were to be leaked, they would surely be coveted by others. With the protection of the Mingshi Tang Empire and the Combat Master Hall, it would be much safer for them.
"If there's anything that you don't understand, ask them now!"
Seeing that they had memorized the contents of the books, Zhang Xuan turned to them and said.
Wang Ying and Liu Yang hurriedly asked.
Two hours later, the duo finally managed to comprehend the contents of the books.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Zhang Xuan was just about to have them return to their living quarters when Sun Qiang suddenly rushed in.
"Young Master, Guild Leader Ruan of the Spirit Awakener Guild requests to meet you!"
"Guild Leader Ruan? Why is she here? "
Zhang Xuan frowned.
Could it be that the guild leader had disobeyed him and sneaked away again?
That shouldn't be the case. They had already signed a contract, so that shouldn't be the case, right?
"Let her in!"
Even though Zhang Xuan had no idea what the other party was up to, he still waved his hand.
Sun Qiang quickly backed out of the room, and soon, he saw Guild Leader Ruan and a middle-aged lady walking in.
The middle-aged lady appeared to be in her thirties. She was dressed in ordinary clothes, but she carried an air of nobility that no one dared to underestimate. Even before coming close to her, she had already exerted a heavy pressure on those around her.
"What powerful strength … Most likely, she has already surpassed Hall Master Xing!"
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes.
Even without using the Eye of Insight, Zhang Xuan could tell that the middle-aged lady was significantly stronger than even Hall Master Xing, who had just achieved a breakthrough not too long ago.
In other words, the middle-aged lady before him had at least reached Saint 5-dan Leaving Aperture realm!
When did such a powerful figure appear in the Spirit Awakener Guild?
"Sun shi … No, it's a pleasure to meet you, Zhang Shi!"
While Zhang Xuan was still perplexed by the situation, Guild Leader Ruan had already walked up to him and greeted him with a bitter smile.
She had been present when Zhang Xuan was invited to the Combat Master Hall, so she was well aware of his strength. However, she had never thought that such a talented spirit awakener would actually be a principal from a Tier-1 Empire in Hongyuan.
"Guild Leader Ruan, there's no need to stand on ceremony. What brings you here at such a late hour?"
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Zhang Xuan asked.
"To be honest with you, I have reported the matter regarding Zhang Shi's involvement in the Spirit Awakener Guild to the headquarters, and they have placed great importance on it. This is Elder Wei, whom the headquarters specially dispatched here!"
Guild Leader Ruan introduced.
"Headquarters? Spirit Awakener Guild headquarters? "Zhang Xuan was taken aback.
