"Zhang Xuan?"
Zhan shi was taken aback.
He had just heard that name a moment ago. It was the young master of the plump butler, Yang shi's student!
The crowd was also taken aback. They quickly turned their gazes to the plump butler, only to see that not only was the latter not surprised by the news, there was even a look of relief on his face.
To Sun Qiang, it was indeed as if a huge burden had been lifted off his shoulders. He knew that other than the Young Master, who else would dare to do such a thing?
If that was really not the case, he would have started to doubt his own life.
Sigh … Sometimes, he couldn't help but feel a little helpless. All he wanted to do was to be a butler, so why was his Young Master so fond of standing in the limelight?
This matter had blown out of proportion. Even if he wanted to clean up the mess, it would be hard for him to do so!
Slowly closing his eyes, Sun Qiang was filled with resentment.
Low profile, low profile, these were the words that the Young Master had been shouting all day long, but he had never done anything like this before.
How tiring!
"Guide more than a dozen people to achieve a breakthrough simultaneously? What is your Young Master up to? "
Knowing who the culprit was, Elder Ge couldn't hold himself back anymore and bellowed furiously.
"I …"
Sun Qiang scratched his head in confusion.
He really had no idea what the Young Master was thinking.
"Now isn't the time to pursue the matter. Let's find those elders and see if we can persuade them to suppress their cultivation and overcome the ordeal separately!"
Zhan shi said with a wave of his hand.
It was unlikely that the tribulation would disappear, but there was still a chance that they could shrink it so that they could overcome it.
Boom!
But before Zhan shi could finish his words, a violent explosion sounded, and a powerful surge of energy charged right toward the lightning tribulation.
Huala!
The storm clouds grew even more furious upon being attacked, and in the blink of an eye, they grew even larger.
"This …"
Everyone shuddered in fear as they quickly turned their gazes in the direction of the explosion, and what they saw made their faces turn livid.
A Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast was attacking the lightning bolts relentlessly with a look of satisfaction on its face, allowing it to gather more energy.
"Where did that fellow come from? Hurry up and stop it!"
Elder Ge bellowed furiously. Just as he was about to rush over and teach the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast a lesson, an elder suddenly leaped out from the back of the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast and slashed his sword at the lightning tribulation.
Kacha! Kacha!
The lightning tribulation grew from five thousand mu to six thousand mu in just a few moments.
"Bai Yu, have you gone mad?"
Upon seeing the old man's appearance, Elder Ge clenched his fists so tightly that he nearly crushed them.
It was none other than Sacred Healer Bai Yu!
This fellow had the heart of a doctor and had always been benevolent, not even willing to kill ants. Why was it that he would only stop when everyone was struck by lightning today?
"Ge Xiong, you've come just in time. Hurry up and help me attack the Lightning Tribulation … Hall Master Zhan, you've come as well. Help me attack the Lightning Tribulation as well. You must move quickly. Otherwise, once the Lightning Tribulation strikes down, it'll be too late!"
Sacred Doctor Bai Yu, who was attacking crazily, saw everyone, and his eyes lit up uncontrollably.
"Attack?"
Elder Ge and Zhan shi widened their eyes in astonishment. They glanced at one another, and they could see the confusion in the other's eyes.
Could it be that this fellow's brain had spasmed from all the treatment and he had gone crazy?
The lightning tribulation was getting stronger and stronger. If this went on, everyone would be struck to death …
Hu hu hu!
Just as the crowd was perplexed as to what Divine Healer Bai Yu was up to, a gust of wind suddenly sounded, and several figures flew over. They were the elder in charge of the Hall of Propriety, Hu Qing, as well as the head teacher of the freshmen, Fei shi, and a few other freshmen.
"Young Master!"
Hu Yiwei walked up to a young man.
"Elder Hu, didn't you … leave already?"
Feng Ziyi was taken aback.
"I haven't. Have you heard of the Old Master taking in a student named Zhang Xuan?" Hu Yiwei asked.
"You mean Brother Zhang Shi?" Feng Ziyi nodded. "If I'm not mistaken, he's the one who caused this lightning tribulation …"
As much as he hated to admit it, he knew that Zhang Xuan was indeed stronger than him.
"Senior?"
Hu Yiwei's lips twitched.
If that was the case, it seemed like what the fatty had said was true! His Young Master had already fallen into the hands of the other party, becoming his junior!
"Isn't that fellow a little too inconsiderate? Despite knowing that everyone is on the verge of achieving a breakthrough, he still gathered so many people together. Given how powerful the lightning tribulation is, let's see how he's going to deal with it! "
The more Hu Yiwei thought about it, the more furious he felt.
Had it been a while ago, he might have been able to overcome the lightning tribulation with his current strength. However, after being tormented by Divine Healer Bai Yu and the others, he no longer had the confidence to do so.
Even if he were to succeed by some stroke of luck, he would be severely injured.
He was not a master teacher, and he did not have a compassionate heart either. There was no way he would do something as unprofitable as that.
"Deal with it? There's no need for Senior to deal with it. He intentionally magnified the lightning tribulation, "Feng Ziyi said with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
Had it been back at the Hall of Propriety, he would have been terrified to death by the sight of such a powerful lightning tribulation. However, after what he had experienced, he had already gotten over it.
"Intentionally magnified the lightning tribulation?" Hu Yiwei looked at Feng Ziyi with a dazed expression, unable to understand what his Young Master was getting at.
"Indeed. Brother Zhang Shi is devouring the lightning tribulation. It's only when the lightning tribulation is big enough that he can eat it! "
Feng Ziyi explained.
"Devouring … the lightning tribulation?"
Zhan shi and the others heard those words as well, and their bodies trembled in agitation. It was only by doing so that they did not plummet to the ground.
Lightning tribulations were punishments imposed by the will of the heavens, and opposing it was no different from opposing the heavens. Yet, the lightning tribulation could be devoured?
You must be kidding me!
"Feng Ziyi isn't joking. Zhang Shi does have the ability to do so!"
Seeing the looks of disbelief on everyone's faces, Hu Qing remarked.
"I saw it with my own eyes too. While the lightning tribulation in the Hall of Propriety wasn't as powerful as this one, it wasn't weak either. It was easily devoured by him, and more importantly, he even scared it away!"
Fei shi, who was following closely behind Feng Ziyi, added.
"Scared it away? How could a lightning tribulation run away? "
The crowd continued to fall into a daze.
Why did it sound more and more surreal to them, as if they were bragging?
"Where is Zhang Shi? Can you allow us to meet him? "
Zhan shi asked. After a long while, he could no longer hold himself back anymore.
Even after so much had been said, they still had not met that legendary figure. Just what kind of person would be able to win Yang shi's favor and induce such a powerful lightning tribulation with just a few pointers?
"He's with the elders who have achieved a breakthrough."
Feng Ziyi pointed.
The crowd quickly turned their gazes over, and they saw a young man sitting cross-legged in front of several elders. His mouth was open and closed nonstop, and it seemed like he was explaining something to them.
The managerial elders of the Physician Guild seemed to be intoxicated by the young man's explanation. They released their zhenqi relentlessly, as if fearing that the lightning tribulation would not come fast enough.
"So, he's Zhang Shi?"
Zhan shi and the others couldn't help but feel impressed by the young man's ability to lecture calmly despite the lightning tribulation.
Even Hu Yiwei couldn't help but nod in agreement.
Over the years, he had only met the Old Master who possessed such mental fortitude!
It was no wonder the Young Master was so impressed by him. This was not something that any ordinary person would be capable of. At the very least, not even Hu Yiwei was capable of such a feat.
"Look, Zhang Shi is going to eat the lightning tribulation!"
While everyone was still in shock, the young man who had been lecturing suddenly stopped what he was doing. He straightened his body and walked over to the area directly beneath the ominous clouds.
It was the easiest place for one to charge into the lightning tribulation, but at the same time, it was also the easiest place to attract the attention of the lightning tribulation.
"You'll be struck to death if you do that!"
Zhan shi exclaimed.
"There's no need for you to worry. We have seen such a sight before, so allow me to explain it to you in advance. Very soon, Zhang Shi will charge into the ominous clouds, and the latter will tremble in agitation.
After which … "Zhang Yu quickly explained the situation to the crowd. Just as he was about to repeat what he had seen earlier, he noticed a bizarre look on the faces of the crowd. He quickly raised his head to take a look, and a moment later, he froze on the spot." A 'lai … "
Following which, he saw Zhang Xuan standing in midair with a dazed look on his face. Before he could even make a move, a thick bolt of lightning had already struck his head.
Kacha!
His entire body was charred, and a fragrant aroma assaulted their nostrils.
"Is this what you mean by eating the lightning tribulation?"
Zhan shi and the others widened their eyes in disbelief.
