"I don't care who you are!"
The young man said with a frown.
It was already a blessing for a freshman butler to be allowed to enter the Sanctum of Sages, but you actually dared to act so arrogantly here!
If not for the fact that this was a gathering place for master teachers, he would have really been tossed out of the Sanctum of Sages.
"Scram right now! If you dare to waste any more time, I'll ban you from entering the Hall of Integrity for the rest of your life!"
The young man said with a wave of his hand.
Even the weakest butler of the younger generation was at Saint 6-dan or 7-dan. Not only were they able to deal with trivial matters, they were also able to protect their master. Yet, this fellow wasn't even a Saint … What the hell was he putting on an act for?
To use such a lowly butler, he must be the so-called Young Master, who doesn't have much influence. It's already a waste of time to waste talking to you, and yet, you still dare to act so arrogantly?
"Ban me?"
Sun Qiang waved his hand grandly, ignoring the other party. Turning around, he walked over to the main seat and sat down. "I'll be sitting here. Why don't you go next? If you don't, I'll look down on you!"
"You …"
Not expecting the other party to be so arrogant as to sit on the teacher's seat, the young man felt goosebumps rising all over his body. Despite his rage, he still suppressed it and narrowed his eyes. "Do you know what you are doing?"
For a fellow who hadn't even reached Saint realm to act so arrogantly, looking down on a Saint 5-dan expert like him, wasn't he a little too brazen?
"Of course I do!" Sun Qiang sneered coldly. His voice was brimming with confidence. "On the other hand, do you know who you are facing? How dare you speak to me in such a manner? Who gave you the guts to do so? "
The young man frowned. Taking a deep breath, he asked, "Who in the world are you?"
Since the other party dared to act so arrogantly, he must have some sort of backing.
Having been in the Sanctum of Sages for a very long time, his eye of discernment was still sharp enough. Otherwise, he would have died many times over.
"You aren't worthy of knowing who I am. Find the elder in charge of your Hall of Integrity or the deputy sanctum head of the Sanctum of Sages. They are qualified to listen to my words!"
Sun Qiang said as he waved his hands grandly, as if a monarch who ruled over the world.
If he had known that the Old Master was so powerful, he wouldn't have had to lower his head. This was more in line with his identity and the Old Master's identity.
"Looking for Elder and Deputy Hall Master?"
The corner of the young man's mouth twitched.
There were many different levels of teachers and elders in the Sanctum of Sages.
The most ordinary of them was the managing elder. Most of them were Saint 7-dan experts, such as Elder Liao. They were in charge of the miscellaneous affairs of the Sanctum of Sages, as well as the examinations of the various occupations.
Above them were the people in charge of the guild, such as Physician Bai Yu. Most of them were at Saint 8-dan.
At the very top were the administrators of the Hall of Benevolence, Righteousness, Propriety, Wisdom, and Trust, as well as the elders of the Sanctum of Sages. There were a total of five of them, such as Elder Zhao of the Hall of Propriety. Even the weakest of them was at least a half-Saint 9-dan expert.
As for the deputy sanctum head, he was even stronger, having already reached Saint 9-dan.
Even if he were to meet these experts, he would not dare to say anything to them. Yet, a butler who hadn't even reached Saint realm had actually ordered them to come over … as though he was ordering them around …
Who in the world was he?
"Indeed. I was intending to keep a low profile, but since you don't know what's good for you, I'll have to get them here today and have them explain to me what gave you the guts to speak to me in such a manner!"
The more Sun Qiang spoke, the more furious he became.
What the heck is this?
Who am I?
I am the butler of one of the strongest experts in the Sanctum of Sages! Putting aside you, even the deputy pavilion master of Mingshi Tang's headquarters would have to treat him with respect, not daring to offend him! Yet, a mere Saint 5-dan ant actually dared to act so arrogantly …
How dare you!
"This …"
Seeing how confident the other party was, the young man couldn't help but feel a little bewildered. Just as he was at a loss as to how he should respond to the other party, he suddenly saw an elder walking over, and his eyes lit up.
"Teacher …"
It was his teacher, the person in charge of the Hall of Integrity, Elder Ge Xiong!
Since he was unable to handle this matter, it would be better for him to leave it to his teacher. Perhaps, if he could get acquainted with the other party and learn of his background, he wouldn't have to be so passive.
"What's going on?"
Seeing that someone was sitting on his seat, Elder Ge frowned.
"You are Ge Xiong?"
Before the young man could reply, Sun Qiang had already turned to look at him with a face as cold as ice. "What a good disciple! Hurry up and apologize to me!"
He had long heard of Elder Ge Xiong, the person in charge of the Hall of Integrity, and he had even seen him from afar.
"Apologize?"
Elder Ge was taken aback for a moment, and the frown on his forehead deepened.
For a fellow who wasn't even a Saint realm cultivator to sit calmly on his seat, demanding a half-Saint 9-dan expert like him to apologize … Did he hear wrongly?
Where in the world did this fellow pop out from?
"Indeed. Your student publicly tried to drive me out of the Sanctum of Sages and even tried to impose a ban on me. That's disgraceful behavior. An apology is already the lightest punishment I can think of. Otherwise, I'll replace you as an elder right now!"
Sun Qiang narrowed his plump eyes as he harrumphed coldly. "There are plenty of people in the Sanctum of Sages who would like to take over your position. You are not one of them!"
"Replace me?"
Perplexed, Elder Ge turned to the young man not too far away and asked in bewilderment, "Who … is this fellow?"
Who in the world was he?
Even the acting principal of the Sanctum of Sages did not have the right to replace him on a whim. Where in the world did this fellow pop out from?
How could he be so daring and imposing?
"Teacher, you don't know him either?" The young man was taken aback.
He had thought that given how knowledgeable his teacher was, he would surely know who this person was, but who could have thought that he would be completely befuddled as well?
After a moment of silence, the young man lowered his voice and said, "I have seen his identity token. He's the butler of a freshman who has just joined the Sanctum of Sages this year!"
"Butler of a freshman?"
Dark lines streaked across Elder Ge's face.
Were all freshman butlers so arrogant now?
Not only did they want him to apologize, they even wanted him to replace a principal elder of the Sanctum of Sages …
"Even though I have made some mistakes in teaching my students, the Sanctum of Sages has already pointed them out. I hope that you won't have to worry about it. On the other hand, who do you think you are to publicly demand an apology from a half-Saint 9-dan expert?"
Elder Ge harrumphed in displeasure.
As a top-notch master teacher, even though he was infuriated, he was still able to suppress his emotions and maintain his composure.
Otherwise, he would have long given the other party a tight slap. How could he allow such a weak fellow to compete before him?
"Who do you think I am?"
Sun Qiang's eyebrows shot up as he stood up. Placing his hands behind his back, he slowly walked up to Elder Ge with pride in his eyes. "Since you want to know, I guess there's no harm in telling you. My Young Master is a freshman from the Sanctum of Sages this year, Zhang Xuan!"
"Zhang Xuan?"
Elder Ge frowned.
That name had caused a huge uproar in the other Sanctum of Sages, but he had never heard of it before.
"Indeed. You might not have heard much of our Young Master, but you should know of our Old Master!"
Sun Qiang harrumphed coldly as he spoke with a lofty and lofty voice. "I am Yang shi, Yang Xuan of the Mingshi Tang headquarters!"
