In the Elder Council of the Combat Master Hall …
"Hall Master Wei has gone to look for Zhang Shi?"
Division Head Wei frowned.
"Indeed. If I'm not mistaken, he should have started his lecture by now …" Division Head Liao nodded.
"With Zhang shi's help, I can rest assured. The Xuanxuan Faction is just an ordinary Master Teacher Academy, but he was actually able to raise the fighting prowess of its students to be on par with combat masters within a short period of time, perhaps even surpassing them. His capability is truly incredible!"
"Indeed! Even though it will only be three short days, with his help, our Qingyuan Empire Combat Master Hall should be able to grow even stronger. Perhaps, we might really be able to reap some unexpected rewards … "
Division Head Liao remarked.
They had interacted with the Xuanxuan Faction before, and they knew how fearsome Zhang Shi's lectures were. If they were to study diligently, not only would they be able to raise their fighting prowess by leaps and bounds, their comprehension of combat would also rise by leaps and bounds.
Division Head Wei couldn't help but ask, "Why don't we secretly take a look?"
"Secretly take a look?"
"Un. I would really like to hear how Zhang Shi conducts his lecture and groom those young fellows. If we can learn a thing or two from him, we should be able to help our students grow stronger in the future as well!"
Division Head Wei stroked his beard.
"That's true … Come, let's take a look together!"
Division Head Liao stood up and said.
It was not a secret that Zhang Shi conducted a lecture on the combat masters, so it was not a big deal for him to take a look.
Thus, the two of them quickly made their way over to the training hall.
"Why is the door open?"
Even before reaching the training hall, Division Head Liao and Division Head Liao had already noticed that the training hall was wide open.
Hurriedly making their way over, they found that there was not a single person in the hall. It was as if the twenty combat masters who were supposed to undergo their individual training had all disappeared.
"Where are they?"
The two division heads glanced at one another in confusion.
Didn't they say that the combat masters would conduct their special training in the training hall? Why did they suddenly vanish?
"There's a cleaner over there. Let's go ask her …"
Division Head Liao looked around, but there was no one in sight.
Division Head Liao saw a cleaner dressed in dirty clothes diligently scrubbing the toilet bowl in a silent chamber not too far away.
"That friend over there, did you see a group of combat masters cultivating … cultivating …"
Before he could finish his words, Division Head Wei's lips twitched.
The person scrubbing the toilet turned around. It was none other than the super genius they had chosen … Shi Hao!
The amount of zhenqi that Shi Hao possessed was renowned throughout the entire Combat Master Hall … Why would he be scrubbing the toilet bowl instead of cultivating?
"Hall Master Wei, Hall Master Liao!"
Upon seeing them, Shi Hao hurriedly cupped his fists.
"You … Why are you here? Where are the others? Didn't we invite Zhang Shi to give a lecture? "
Division Head Wei couldn't help but ask.
"It is indeed the mission that Zhang Shi has assigned me. He wants me to clean all of the toilet bowls in the Combat Master Hall within three days," Shi Hao replied.
"All of the toilets in the Combat Master Hall?" The eyes of the two division heads widened in shock.
There were more than ten thousand members in the Combat Master Hall, and another ten thousand from the Xuanxuan Faction had joined the Combat Master Hall as well. Considering that there were many public facilities in the Combat Master Hall, the number of toilets in the Combat Master Hall would definitely exceed ten thousand!
If he had to clear all of them in three days … he did not even have enough time, how could he possibly cultivate?
"Yes, and he even asked me to use this …" Shi Hao raised the item in his hand.
Upon taking a look, the eyelids of the two hall masters twitched once more.
The item in the other party's hand was not a toilet scrubbing tool but a feather duster …
Feather dusters were soft in the first place, and while they were capable of wiping away dust, how could they possibly wipe away the filth on the toilet bowl?
"Alright, division heads, I don't have much time to waste. There are so many toilet bowls here, so I have to clean them all within three days. If I can't clean them all, I'll be in deep trouble … Alright, let's hang up!"
After saying those words, Shi Hao squatted down once more and began cleaning the toilet bowl earnestly.
"This … Alright, we won't disturb you then. Where are the others?"
Seeing that the other party was ignoring them, Division Head Wei could only ask.
"Jiao Tan is swatting flies in the toilet outside, and Xiao Qin is catching birds … As for the others, I'm not too sure. You should head out and look for them.
Perhaps, you might be able to find them! "Shi Hao replied without raising his head.
"Swatting flies? Catching birds? "
The bodies of the two division heads swayed weakly, and their vision darkened.
Weren't they supposed to conduct a lecture?
Wasn't it supposed to be an emergency assault and a short-term training session?
Scrubbing the toilet bowl, swatting flies, and catching birds … What in the world was that?
With perplexed looks on their faces, the two division heads walked out of the training hall. Just as they were about to look for the bird catcher and the fly catcher, they suddenly saw a young man following behind a female combat master with a bright smile on his face.
"Big Sister, don't go! Can you do something embarrassing with me?"
Pah!
"If you don't want to do it, then don't! Why are you hitting me? Hey, this big brother over here, can you do something embarrassing with me? "
"Scram!"
"Alright then …"
Upon seeing this sight, Division Head Wei couldn't help but turn to look at Division Head Liao, and their mouths were twitching uncontrollably.
"Are you seeing things? Is that your student, Lu Jianling?"
"That's right. My student has always been an introverted person, so why would he … chase after a lady so openly? More importantly, what does he mean by chasing after a man …" Division Head Liao covered his face, fearing that his student would call him out to do something embarrassing with him.
"I don't know either …"
Division Head Wei gulped down a mouthful of saliva.
Proceeding ahead, they soon saw a young man standing before a tree, driving his zhenqi. It seemed like he was undergoing some kind of training.
Recognizing the young man, Division Head Wei nodded. "That's Dong Rui from the Defense Division. His skin is as tough as steel, making him invulnerable to swords and spears …"
It was fortunate that there was someone who was normal here.
Otherwise, he would be scrubbing the toilet bowl and flirting with a man … If he were to continue watching this, he might just spurt blood.
"Un …"
Division Head Liao heaved a sigh of relief as well. Just as he was about to speak, Dong Rui suddenly finished recuperating, climbed up to the top of the tree, and … abruptly let go.
Paji!
His head plunged into the ground, as if he was a carrot.
Putong!
Dong Rui struggled to pull his head out, only to see that Dong Rui's face was covered in blood. He casually applied some ointment on his wound before walking up to the tree once more.
Paji!
Dong Rui fell to the ground once more, and this time, even more blood flowed out of his head.
"…"
The two division heads were frenzied.
Didn't they say that they would be training?
Didn't they say that they would be conducting a lecture?
It wasn't easy for them to select the top geniuses of the Combat Master Hall, the strongest combat masters of each tier, so why had they all gone insane?
Proceeding forward, they encountered even more bizarre occurrences. Some were lying in their bathtubs, pretending to be dead, and some were burying themselves in the ground, not moving at all …
It didn't take them long to find the twenty geniuses, and all of them were acting like lunatics, doing things that they had never even dreamed of doing before.
"Hall Master Xing … What is going on?"
Unable to take it any longer, the two division heads rushed over to Hall Master Xing's residence and found the dazed Hall Master Xing standing there.
What we want is for the combat masters to perform a miracle, not for them to turn into lunatics …
"I … I have no idea either!"
Hall Master Xing turned around.
Only then did the duo realize that the extraordinarily handsome Hall Master Xing's hair was in a complete mess, reminiscent of a bird's nest. There were dark circles under his eyes as well, as if he had not slept for several days straight.
"Zhang Shi arranged it this way, and he told me not to interfere in it. I … I have no idea what I am doing either!"
Hall Master Xing was also on the verge of a mental breakdown.
He had thought that Zhang Shi would use some kind of special training method to train the combat masters, but when he saw the contents of the scroll, he had gone completely insane.
It was indeed very special … but this was way too freaking special!
Are you sure that this is a training method? Are you trying to destroy our Qingyuan Empire Combat Master Hall?
"You don't know either? Then … are we just going to allow him to do as he pleases? "
Division Head Wei asked.
"I wanted to tell him as well, but he told me that … as long as we don't trust him, we can ignore him. After hesitating for a very long time, I finally decided to ignore him … "
Hall Master Xing said with a bitter smile.
As the head of the Combat Master Hall, he was unable to comprehend the actions of the other party.
However, since he had invited the other party to make a move, he had to trust the other party. Otherwise, as the head of the Qingyuan Empire Combat Master Hall, he would have no authority at all.
"But …"
The two division heads wanted to say something, but they had no idea where to start.
"Is Zhang Shi really training?"
After a long moment of silence, Division Head Liao asked.
"I don't know either … Let's just leave it as it is. Our men aren't going to be able to get any ranking anyway, so why don't we just let him do as he pleases?
Perhaps … he might just be able to create a miracle! "Hall Master Xing shook his head helplessly.
Their Qingyuan Empire Combat Master Hall had always been weak, and based on their past results, even though the candidates for the selection were all extremely talented combat masters, it was hard to say whether they would be able to get two slots or not.
In any case, they were in a desperate situation. What if Zhang Shi was really able to create another miracle?
"That's the only thing we can do … Right, where is Zhang Shi?"
Division Head Wei asked as he scanned the area, but he was unable to find Zhang Xuan.
"He took his physician emblem and apothecary emblem with him earlier, and he said that he was heading to Mingshi Tang to take the Seven Star master teacher examination …"
Hall Master Xing said.
"Seven Star master teacher examination?"
The duo was taken aback.
You were the one who trained our men, but instead, you turned all of our combat masters into lunatics and ran off to take the Seven Star master teacher examination …
Aren't you being a little too arrogant?
The two division heads felt as if their worldview had crumbled.
…
Hall Master Xing was right. Zhang Xuan had indeed arrived at Mingshi Tang.
To him, training combat masters was just a small matter. What was more important was to take the master teacher examination.
Only with this identity would he be qualified to vie for the slots to enter the Sanctum of Sages, and only then would he be able to find Lozosy and ask her about the matter.
Walking through the vast main hall of Mingshi Tang, Zhang Xuan headed straight for Wu Shi's room.
He had the experience of raising a kingdom into an empire, so as long as his supporting occupations and Soul Depth met the requirements, he would be able to apply for the emblem without taking the examination. If it had been anyone else, he might have had to argue with them, but Wu Shi was the most convenient person to do so.
"Wu Shi, if not for Temple Master Tian's warning, our entire Combat Master Hall might have been wiped out. Yet, you are saying that he tried to frame a 6-star master teacher from a Tier-1 Empire? On top of that, he even went so far as to capture him … Aren't you overreacting? "
Shortly after Zhang Xuan arrived at the room, before he could even push the door open, he suddenly heard an old voice echoing from within.
