"Feng Ziyi also cleared the Tower of Master Teachers?"
Zhan shi and the others fell silent, unable to speak a single word.
Over the past several dozen millenniums, there had only been three people who had successfully cleared the Tower of Master Teachers. What was going on in the past few days? Two people had successfully cleared the Tower of Master Teachers, and both of them had succeeded!
"How long did he take?"
An elder could not help but ask.
How long did Feng Ziyi take if Zhang Shi took 15 minutes?
"An entire day …"
The elder who spoke explained.
"A single day isn't too fast, but it's still an incredible feat. For the wills of the sanctum heads to be shaken right after he became an 8-star master teacher, could he be the new sanctum head?"
Zhan shi deduced.
"Very likely!"
The elders nodded in agreement.
While Zhang Shi had cleared the trial swiftly, he did not notice any anomaly after clearing the trial. On the other hand, Feng Ziyi had only just become an 8-star master teacher, and yet, he was already able to trigger such an anomaly. Could it be that … he had already won Sage Kui's acknowledgement and become the only candidate for the position of the sanctum head?
"This Feng Ziyi will definitely return to Mingshi Tang's headquarters. How do we … confirm him as a candidate?"
"I don't know about that. Sage Kui is an ancient saint with great foresight. Perhaps he has seen things that we can't!"
"To be honest, if the Hall Master really appeared in this era, I think the possibility of it being Zhang Shi is higher! It's said that he's Feng Ziyi's senior, and he's far superior in every aspect! "
"One of the requirements for the selection of the sanctum head is to possess the Eye of Insight. Even though Zhang Shi possesses unparalleled talent, even on par with the little princess of the Luo Clan, if he doesn't possess the Eye of Insight, he will still be in vain!"
"That's true …"
Everyone discussed with furrowed brows.
If there was really a candidate for the Hall Master position, it would be either Zhang Shi or Feng Ziyi. As for who it was exactly, they didn't dare to confirm it. However, most of them were leaning towards Feng Ziyi.
"There's a good chance that it's Feng Ziyi. Zhang Shi is most likely going to take over Yang shi's position …"
After a moment of discussion, none of them were able to come to a decision. Finally, Zhan shi spoke up and said, "Alright, since we have already confirmed the candidate for the sanctum head, don't let anyone know of this matter. From now on, we mustn't show any disrespect toward the future sanctum head.
"Yes!"
Everyone nodded at the same time and remained silent.
…
The distance between the Sanctum of Sages and the Zhang clan was extremely far. Even with Jian Qinsheng's tamed beast, it would still take at least a month for him to fly there.
Bored, Zhang Xuan began studying the Sanctum Head Token to reinforce his cultivation.
It took him three days and three nights to reinforce his cultivation as a Grand Dominion realm pinnacle cultivator. After that, he tempered his physical body and Primordial Spirit once more before he finally found himself free.
Following which, he discussed his swordsmanship with Jian Qinsheng, and the latter benefited greatly from it.
Swaying and swaying, they flew for another twenty days.
"In about two days, we will reach the Zhang family …"
Looking at the undulating mountains and rivers beneath him, Jian Qinsheng confirmed his position in agitation.
Two days later, he would be able to wipe away the humiliation he had suffered and trample on the arrogant Xingmeng Sword Saint beneath his feet. Just the thought of it filled him with excitement.
"This is a Clan Assembly. If we were to challenge them just like that, wouldn't it be a breach of etiquette?"
Zhang Xuan looked over.
As much as he wanted to teach the Zhang clan a lesson, he was still a master teacher, after all. He knew that he had to know his limits.
"Actually, it's not that I want to challenge them, but they invited me to do so. As the number one Sage Clan on the Master Teacher Continent, it's only natural for the Zhang clan to display their might in this Clan Assembly. This is a perfect opportunity to teach them a lesson!"
Jian Qinsheng harrumphed.
It was not that he wanted to challenge them, but they had invited him over.
Their goal was to display the might of the Zhang clan to the world!
In the past, he could only passively serve as a stepping stone for the Zhang clan, but now that he had Zhang Shi, a genius who had comprehended two Sword Quintessences, with him, so what if the Zhang clan's juniors were formidable?
Could they possibly match up to him?
"Invitation?" Zhang Xuan was perplexed.
"Indeed. That's what the Zhang Clan likes to do. Every time they hold a Clan Assembly, they would invite a lot of people. Demonic tunist, apothecary, blacksmith, beast tamer, and many other occupations would also be invited to the Zhang Clan Assembly. They said that they are here to observe the ceremony, but in reality, they are here to let the youngsters compete with each other … "
Even though Jian Qinsheng was filled with displeasure, he still couldn't help but sigh deeply. "But even though they're doing this to showcase the prowess of the Zhang clan, I have to admit that they do have the capability to back it up. There aren't many cultivators of the same age who are able to defeat the prodigies of the Zhang clan!"
"Invite the various classes?"
Zhang Xuan was taken aback for a moment before recalling Bi Hongyin's words.
When the little prodigy was born, she seemed to have invited many professionals, including her teacher.
"The last time the Zhang family held a Clan Assembly was twenty years ago. It was during the young prodigy's one-month celebration. Back then, all of my students were defeated by a single person …"
Recalling the sight back then, a bitter look surfaced on Jian Qinsheng's face.
The direct disciple of the Xingmeng Sword Saint had single-handedly subdued all of his direct disciples, leaving them unable to retaliate at all.
Because of this, he had been suppressing his anger all these years, with nowhere to vent it.
If not for Zhang Shi, he might have never been able to exact vengeance for the rest of his life.
"The young prodigy's one-month celebration … Right, since you attended the Clan Assembly, did you meet the young prodigy?"
Zhang Xuan asked out of curiosity.
"Of course I did. Even though he was born not too long ago, he exuded a sharp aura, as if harnessing the great dao of the world within him. With just a casual glance, one would find one's Dao Heart wavering and ashamed of their inferiority!"
Recalling the sight from twenty years ago, Jian Qinsheng couldn't help but remark, "I must say, Heung Kensei doesn't just possess a deep understanding of swordsmanship, he really knows how to give birth to children. I've never seen a child as talented as him before."
"What kind of talent could a newborn child possibly have? Isn't that a little too exaggerated? "
Zhang Xuan's complexion turned awful.
If that fellow was really that formidable, he would have long made a name for himself in the Master Teacher Continent. How could he have never appeared in public before?
Even the Zhang Family kept their mouths shut about it and kept it a secret?
"Exaggerated?"
Jian Qinsheng shook his head. "Not at all!"
"Oh?"
"I'm telling the truth. Since you don't believe me, let me ask you this. Have you ever seen a natural-born Saint?"
Jian Qinsheng said.
"Innate Saint?" Zhang Xuan frowned in confusion.
"Reaching Saint realm as soon as he's born, there's no need for him to cultivate at all."
Jian Qinsheng nodded.
"He was born a Saint? How … how is this possible? "
Zhang Xuan's pupils shrank.
In order to cultivate to Saint realm, he had put in a lot of effort and effort, spending more than half a year on it. Yet, the other party was already a Saint at birth … How could this be possible?
He had never heard of anyone who could do this.
Even Lozosy couldn't do it!
"Yeah, I couldn't believe it when I saw it for the first time, but that's the truth …"
A thought suddenly came to Jian Qinsheng's mind, and he turned to Zhang Xuan and said, "Right, now that I think about it, the young prodigy's appearance does bear some resemblance to yours …"
