As the number one Sage Clan on the Master Teacher Continent, the Zhang clan had many juniors in the Sanctum of Sages. As long as they were not the core members of the Sanctum of Sages, it would not be a big deal for them to be injured. However, to have beaten up three of them within such a short period of time, even if they were just the core members of the Sanctum of Sages, it was still a huge provocation!
If the other party were to provoke the other party, he might still be able to mediate in the shadows. However, the Zhang clan was a power on par with the Sanctum of Sages. As an ordinary teacher, there was nothing he could do about it.
If he were to incur the wrath of the other party and send even more formidable juniors, he would have no choice but to bear with it.
Even as the teacher in charge of the Elite Division, there was nothing he could do about it.
"Thank you for your guidance, Fei shi. I understand!"
Knowing that the other party was speaking out of goodwill, Zhang Xuan clasped his fist.
"It's good that you understand. You are an unaffiliated cultivator, so you should pay more attention to your connections. Making more friends is better than making more enemies. After all, no one is the sanctum head!"
Fei shi remarked.
"Sanctum head?"
Zhang Xuan looked at Fei shi with a perplexed expression.
What did this have to do with the sanctum head?
"The Sanctum of Sages is affiliated to the Mingshi Tang headquarters, and it is on par with the Combat Master Hall. You should know about this, right?"
Seeing Zhang Xuan's expression, Fei shi asked.
"Un." Zhang Xuan nodded.
If the Master Teacher Pavilion headquarters could be viewed as a massive national organization, the regional Master Teacher Pavilions would serve as the local administration, and the Combat Master Hall would serve as an army under the direct command of the headquarters. If there were any conflicts, the Combat Master Hall would be dispatched to deal with them.
As for the Sanctum of Sages, it was a place similar to the Imperial Academy, and it was responsible for grooming the top talents of the Master Teacher Continent.
As such, if one were to compare the Combat Master Hall to the Sanctum of Sages, the two would be on par with one another. They were both subordinates of the Mingshi Tang headquarters.
"The Mingshi Tang headquarters are aloof from the affairs of the Master Teacher Continent. As long as one doesn't betray mankind, they won't interfere. As a subordinate organization, the Sanctum of Sages can't get too close to the other clans and powers," Fei shi explained.
Zhang Xuan widened his eyes in realization.
Take the Combat Master Hall for example, it was unlikely for it to have any contact with the local authorities. Otherwise, Mingshi Tang would have surely stepped in to deal with it.
It was the same for the Sanctum of Sages as well. As a place to groom talents, it was a place where everyone could learn from Kong Shi's teachings. However, due to the fact that there were simply too many powers in the Sanctum of Sages, Zhang Xuan could not make use of this opportunity to get close to any one of them. Otherwise, he would be biased and lose sight of Kong Shi's teachings.
"As the leader of the Sanctum of Sages, in order to win the respect of the later generations of the Sage Clans, the sanctum head has to crush all of them in his path. Take the previous sanctum head for example. When he was young, he was a candidate for the Sanctum of Sages, and he challenged the Zhang clan, Luo Clan, and Jiang Clan to challenge the Sanctum of Sages. However, as the sanctum head, he didn't have to fear offending others, and there was no need for him to fawn over others either. On the contrary, doing so will only earn the acknowledgement of the other powers … But you are different. As an ordinary student, it would be best for you to maintain a low profile. There are countless geniuses in the Sanctum of Sages, and even though you have gone through a lot in the past, you are still lacking compared to the true geniuses! "
Fei shi advised.
While Zhang Xuan's experiences were indeed astounding, if he were to be compared to the little princess of the Luo Clan and the geniuses of the Zhang clan … he would still pale in comparison.
This was especially so for the former. In less than two years after arriving at the Sanctum of Sages, she had already cleared nearly all of the trials in the Sanctum of Sages. Yet, when asked why, the answer she received was that … she was bored!
If she was bored, she would challenge the trials. Most of the difficult trials would be from the Gui Corridor to the Jia Corridor, leaving everyone on the verge of a mental breakdown.
No matter how talented the young man before him was, he could only be considered to be average at best. There was no way he could match up to such a monster.
"Yes, I understand."
Zhang Xuan stroked his lower jaw.
The previous sanctum heads had challenged the other clans and powers, but it seemed like he was still too low profile!
It had been more than a day since he arrived at the Sanctum of Sages, but all he had done was destroy a Corridor of Puppets and pummel three members of the Zhang clan … This was still a little too little!
Sigh, there was nothing he could do about it. Who asked him to be so outstanding, to keep a low profile, to avoid revealing himself?
Such a personality was indeed worrisome.
It seemed like he would have to be more high-profile in the future.
If Fei shi were to learn of his thoughts, he would probably faint on the spot.
No matter how high-profile the other sanctum heads were, they would have to cultivate for a hundred years or even several hundred years before they could soar into the sky with a firm foundation. On the other hand, this fellow was only at Leaving Aperture realm primary stage, and he had only arrived at the Sanctum of Sages less than a day ago.
No matter how formidable the sanctum heads were, they had never done such a thing before!
"It's good that you understand. Find an opportunity to apologize to the Zhang clan in the next two days!"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan had understood his intentions, Fei shi nodded in relief.
Geniuses were not to be feared. What was truly fearsome was those who were able to live long lives and submit.
He had placed a lot of hope in Zhang Xuan, so naturally, he didn't want the latter to suffer a setback before he had fully matured, resulting in him being unable to advance any further.
"Apologize?"
Zhang Xuan frowned.
"Indeed. Both of you share the same surname, Zhang. If you can build a good relationship with him, it'll be of great help to your future. If you can become a guest elder of the Zhang clan, you won't have to worry about resources, and your future will surely be limitless!"
Fei shi said.
What unaffiliated cultivators lacked the most was resources. Be it spirit stones or cultivation technique manuals, as long as they had sufficient resources, they would be able to advance their cultivation by leaps and bounds.
"Guest elder?"
"Un. The Zhang clan is no different from a country or a sect. Not only do they have members from the clan, they also have many experts from the subordinate powers. It's only when these people are gathered together that they form such a colossus!"
Fei shi remarked. "Of course, as a master teacher, the best choice for you is the Mingshi Tang headquarters. However, there are many tests you have to go through in order to enter the headquarters, and the difficulty is far greater."
"I see."
Zhang Xuan nodded in realization.
While the Zhang clan might seem like a clan on the surface, it was actually more like an aircraft carrier, with countless destroyers under its command.
Many unaffiliated cultivators would try to build a good relationship with the Zhang clan so that they could enter the Sanctum of Sages after they graduated.
Of course, to master teachers, the Mingshi Tang headquarters was the best choice. However, the difficulty of entering the headquarters was far greater. Only the top experts of the Master Teacher Continent were qualified to enter the headquarters.
"Alright, that's all I have to say. The Sanctum of Sages is all about connections, and the Zhang clan is an insurmountable obstacle in the Master Teacher Continent. I'll leave the decision to you!"
Just as Fei shi was about to take his leave, a student suddenly rushed over.
"Fei shi, bad news! The King Of Destruction … is here!"
"The King Of Destruction? What is he doing here? "
Fei shi was taken aback.
The King Of Destruction was a figure who caused headaches in the Sanctum of Sages. He loved to challenge all kinds of trials and wreak havoc, causing havoc in the Sanctum of Sages. Anyone who heard of his arrival would feel a headache coming on.
Just that … this was the Hall of Benevolence, the Elite Division … What was that fellow doing here?
There was nothing for him to destroy!
"I don't know … but he's already here!"
Right after Fei shi said those words, a tall and handsome young man walked over with widened strides. As soon as he arrived, he began scanning the surroundings, seemingly looking for someone.
"Luo Xuanqing, this is where the Elite Division is located. If you really intend to cause trouble, I'll have to ask you to leave!"
Upon seeing Luo Xuanqing's arrival, several figures immediately stepped forward to block his path. One of them bellowed coldly.
He was the most talented individual from the Zhang clan who had entered the Sanctum of Sages this time around, Zhang Yu!
"Elite Division? How incredible! When I entered this place, you were still freaking pissing in the gutter. Scram to the side! Don't delay me from finding him! "
Luo Xuanqing waved his hand.
As members of the Two Premier Clans of the Master Teacher Continent, he had long met Zhang Yu, and they could be considered to be familiar with each other.
"You …"
Being insulted in public, Zhang Yu's face turned livid.
"Scram!"
Luo Xuanqing waved his hand grandly.
Hong long!
A violent force immediately swept over. Before Zhang Yu could react, he was sent flying like a rubber ball swept by a flood. Pa da! He slammed into the wall and hung there. He wanted to move, but he was unable to do so.
Even though he was a genius himself, his age and strength were far above that of a veteran like Luo Xuanqing.
Seeing that Luo Xuanqing had made a move, the other members of the Zhang clan glared at him furiously, and they quickly rushed forward. However, before they could even get close, Luo Xuanqing had already waved his hand.
In an instant, as if swatting flies, the crowd was smashed into the wall, and they struggled desperately to free themselves.
Even though Luo Xuanqing had managed to subdue them, he knew his limits. He only managed to hang them from the wall, not injuring them at all.
"Luo Xuanqing, this is the Elite Division. There's nothing you can do here. You should just leave!"
Fei shi said as he walked over.
No matter what, he was the teacher in charge of the Zhang Clan. If he didn't make a move now, he would lose face.
"I'll leave as soon as I find him."
Luo Xuanqing waved his hand casually as his eyes fell on the person behind Fei shi. "Zhang … Zhang Xuan, right? You're the one I'm looking for!"
"You're looking for me?"
Zhang Xuan was taken aback.
"You're looking for Zhang Xuan?"
"Luo Xuanqing has always been a violent person, so this fellow is bound to be pummeled!"
"He's a stubborn fellow who doesn't listen to anyone but his younger sister. He must have offended Zhang Xuan, so he's here to pick a fight with him …"
"Over the years, there have been few seniors and freshmen who haven't been pummeled by him. Zhang Xuan is doomed …"
…
He wasn't the only one who was dumbfounded. The eyes of Zhang Zhuo and the others who had just been pummeled lit up upon hearing those words.
That Luo Xuanqing was an unreasonable person. Even though they hadn't been found, they were still hung on the walls. Needless to say, Zhang Xuan would surely be pummeled until his face was swollen, leaving him in a miserable state!
"Indeed. Brother, come with me. Big brother, I have something important to tell you!"
Before Zhang Xuan could react, Luo Xuanqing had already grabbed him by the neck and brought him out.
"…" Zhang Zhuo, Zhang Yu, and the others.
Isn't this the violent King Of Destruction?
Aren't we supposed to fight?
Why isn't he playing by the rules?
