Tianxuan Royal City.
"Beiwu Tier 2 Kingdom's Liu Shi, Zhuang shi, and Hanwu Kingdom's Zheng shi came to the royal city to visit Yang Xuan?"
"Indeed. After their visit, they summoned Ling Tianyu, Du Miaoxuan, and the others into the royal palace. I don't know what happened there, but the next day, the three master teachers paid a visit to Yang Xuan's residence... Furthermore... They visited for five consecutive days, but they didn't even meet with a single person?"
"The heck, isn't this too much? He didn't even meet with the master teachers? I know of Liu Shi, and he is one of the top 1-star master teachers. For such a person to be turned away at the entrance... What kind of standard does this Yang shi possess? "
"I'm afraid that he isn't just a 2-star master teacher!"
...
No one had heard of the name Yang Xuan before, and even the Teacher Guild couldn't find anything about him. As such, many people doubted that he wasn't a true master teacher.
However, things were different now.
Everyone had heard of Liu shi, Zheng shi, and Zhuang shi, the Three True Master Teachers. Even in the neighboring kingdoms, they were renowned figures. Yet, the three of them had paid a visit to Yang Xuan for five days straight, and yet, they hadn't even entered the room. No matter how foolish one was, it was clear that Yang Xuan was no ordinary person.
"He's a master teacher, but we can't find anything about him... I'm afraid that the name Yang Xuan is fake as well..."
"Master teachers like to travel and experience the life of an ordinary person. From there, they can open up their mind and raise their soul. Could this be a high-tier master teacher who came from somewhere?"
"I don't know... If that's the case, wouldn't Tianxuan Kingdom prosper?"
"Indeed, a master teacher is a symbol of the strength of a country. A 1-star master teacher can apply for a Tier 2 Kingdom, a 2-star master teacher can apply for a Tier 1 Kingdom, and a 3-star master teacher can apply for a Tier 1 Kingdom!"
"Once a kingdom becomes a Tier 1 Kingdom, they will have the right to build a massive Teleportation Formation and purchase and sell all kinds of resources. The benefits are unimaginable..."
...
In an instant, all kinds of theories spread throughout the royal city.
"Your Majesty, even though the three master teachers are still doubtful, this Yang Xuan is definitely a capable person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to treat so many people so easily. Even if he isn't a master teacher, he should be at least a master physician. Perhaps... the Royal Ancestor can be saved."
In the royal palace, an old eunuch analyzed the news he had just received.
"Un, send men to guard the area. Report to me the moment Yang Xuan returns. I want to take a look personally." Emperor Shen Zhui said grimly.
"Yes!"
The old eunuch hurriedly nodded.
…
"This is a rare opportunity. Wang Chao, if Yang shi takes a liking to us and we become his apprentices, it won't be long before we become master teachers!"
In a spacious classroom in Hongtian Academy, Lu Xun stared at the young man before him excitedly.
"That's right. No matter what, we have to pay him a visit and leave a good impression on him!" Wang Chao nodded as his eyes gleamed. "Even if I can't become an apprentice, with a few words of guidance, I'm sure that I'll be able to achieve a breakthrough immediately."
"En!" Lu Xun nodded.
"By the way, what about Zhang Xuan?" Wang Chao asked.
"Him?" Lu Xun laoshi gazed ahead with a lofty aura. Placing his hands behind his back, he said, "He is just a stepping stone on my path to becoming a master teacher. He means nothing at all. Don't worry, the students I have chosen to battle with him are all cultivating in secret. In just a few days, they will be able to achieve a breakthrough in their cultivation. They will definitely emerge victorious in this Teacher Evaluation and attract the attention of many master teachers!"
"That's good. I'll congratulate you in advance …" Wang Chao excitedly clasped his fists.
…
Similar scenes were happening all around the capital. The appearance of a master teacher caused a huge commotion among the various powers. All of them set their sights on Zhang Xuan's residence. In an instant, this inconspicuous courtyard seemed to have become the center of the capital …
A huge commotion broke out.
… … …
At this moment, Zhang Xuan had already arrived at the innermost row of the kingdom's Book Collection Vault.
After five days of non-stop flipping through books, he was completely exhausted. Not to mention cultivating, he didn't even have the mood to speak.
"There's still the last row left …"
Knowing that it wasn't easy to enter the kingdom's Book Collection Vault, Zhang Xuan decided to imprint these books into the Library of Heaven's Path first. He didn't allow them to form a corresponding Book of Heaven's Path. Even so, he was still exhausted, and he could collapse at any moment.
Seeing that there was only the last row left, his eyes glowed in excitement and tears streamed down his cheeks.
After working hard for so many days, he finally saw the end.
"Un? These are books on poison … "
This was a row of books on how to use poison, create poison, apply poison, and identify poison. Just like the other books, they were just the basics and couldn't be considered profound.
"Flip through them!"
With a flick of his finger, the books were imprinted into his mind one after another.
Of the many occupations, there was the poison master occupation. In terms of prowess, it could definitely be considered as one of the Upper Nine Paths. However, similar to assassins, it could only be hidden in the shadows. Many people weren't willing to choose this occupation, resulting in it being relegated to the Lower Nine Paths.
Naturally, Zhang Xuan wasn't interested in learning how to be a poison master. However, there was no harm in taking a look. This could prevent him from being framed.
One shouldn't have the intention to harm others, but one must always be wary of others.
Two hours later, he finished reading all of the books on poison.
"I should go back and sleep first …"
After imprinting all of the books in the Book Collection Vault into his mind, Zhang Xuan felt fatigue crushing down on him. It was as though his entire body had been hollowed out. All he wanted to do was find a place to lie down and sleep.
Even though he had reached Pixue realm pinnacle and was much stronger than ordinary cultivators, he couldn't withstand five consecutive days without rest. Furthermore, his mind was in high gear.
However, even though he was exhausted, it was worth it.
Tianxuan Kingdom had been established for more than a thousand years. Even though the quality of the books in the Book Collection Vault wasn't high, and they couldn't be considered as secret manuals, they covered every single occupation. Furthermore, there was a huge quantity of them.
To others, it would be difficult for them to discern the authenticity of the books. The more they read, the more confused they would become. However, to Zhang Xuan, who possessed the Library of Heaven's Path, this wasn't a problem at all.
As long as he was willing, he could compile a Heaven's Path Book and extract the most accurate knowledge within to make it his own.
Walking out of the palace, Zhang Xuan glanced at the sun. Only then did he realize that he had been in the Book Collection Vault for five days.
"I can't rest yet. It has been around ten days since I bought the Unravel Yin Pill and Colossal Rhinoceros Blood. The items should have arrived by now …"
While walking, Zhang Xuan suddenly recalled that he couldn't sleep right away. In this period of time, he had been busy earning money and reading books. The ten days deadline was almost up, and the medicinal herbs he had requested of Guild Leader Ouyang should have arrived by now.
"I should return to the residence first. Hopefully, someone will come looking for me in the next few days. That way, I should be able to gather enough money …"
Thinking for a moment, Zhang Xuan realized that he was still short of two million. Without any hesitation, he found a secluded area and changed his clothes. Disguising himself as' Yang Xuan ', he headed back to the residence.
… … …
Zhang Liao and Zhang Mo were famous thieves in Tianxuan Kingdom. They specialized in robbing the rich and giving to the poor.
Due to their nimble movements and clean means, they had never failed in their robberies. Tianxuan Kingdom had once offered a high bounty to capture the two of them, but what was laughable was that no one knew what they looked like.
"That's Du Qiao's residence. That fellow is a heartless tycoon who has committed many evil deeds. Even though he met with bandits and suffered a setback in his business, a starving camel is still bigger than a horse. Just a small sum of money would be enough for him to survive for quite some time …"
Zhang Liao chuckled as he strode forward.
Due to being hunted down, the two of them left Tianxuan Kingdom for half a year. As soon as they returned, they immediately set their sights on Merchant Du Qiao.
"Un. However, we have to scout the area carefully and confirm the habits of the guards before making a move." Zhang Mo nodded his head.
The duo didn't steal from anyone they saw. Instead, they had to observe the surroundings for a long time to confirm the layout of the defenses and find the weak point before striking.
This was precisely the reason why they had never failed in their robberies before.
"The residence in front is it. I've been here once … Ah?"
Zhang Liao strode forward and turned around a corner. Just as he was about to sneak into the residence to take a closer look, he was shocked by what he saw.
Zhang Mo's face paled as he stared at the sight before him with widened eyes.
There was a long queue at the entrance of the residence, and there were several hundred people standing in front of it. It was one thing if there were just a lot of people, but more importantly … the gates of the residence were tightly shut, as though they had no intention of opening at all.
"Look, isn't that … the Eight-Armed Divine Dragon, Liu Yuankai?"
Suddenly, Zhang Liao recognized a person and his face paled.
"It's him … the Eight-Armed Divine Dragon, Liu Yuankai, is a famous Tongxuan realm advanced stage expert. Due to an injury he sustained while hunting a savage beast, he disappeared from the crowd. Why is he here? Furthermore, why is he standing at the entrance? "Zhang Mo's body trembled.
"That is … Cliff Dragon Iron Hands, Feng Jun? He is the number one expert of Hanxue City, capable of splitting rocks with his iron hands. Even Emperor Shen Zhui treats him as an equal, and his cultivation is at Tongxuan realm intermediate stage. Why is he here … queuing? "
"Eagle Pecking Divine Eyes, Duan Jiujiang? Iron Caltrop, Long Xuanhai? Fair Faced Scholar, Hu Xiaobai … "
Zhang Liao thought that the people queuing outside were all ordinary people. However, upon recognizing one of them and taking a closer look, his body trembled and he nearly died of fright …
These people were all famous experts in Tianxuan Kingdom, and even the weakest of them was at Tongxuan realm primary stage.
Even though they had some means, if they were to meet with these people, they would probably be beaten to death on the spot.
Just that …
Back then, Emperor Shen Zhui had specially invited them, but only a handful of them had turned up. Why would they all line up at the entrance of the Hall of Gods?
I'm not mistaken, am I …?
Zhang Liao and Zhang Mo stared at one another in bewilderment. They scratched their heads in frenzy.
It was one thing if these people were just queuing up, but the problem was that they didn't even dare to breathe loudly for fear of offending the people in the residence. In fact, they even dared not to knock on the door …
The heck, heavens, earth, who can tell me whether these people have gone mad, or am I the one who has gone mad?
Isn't this Du Qiao's residence?
How could a small merchant have such a great deterrent force?
For such a huge group of people to willingly wait at the entrance, not daring to utter a single word?
