Back when he was in the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, he had to pummel the core disciples and the elders of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion with his swordsmanship. That was how he managed to earn the respect of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion. But even so, in the end, he was only made the young master, the so-called successor of the sect.
It had only been two hours since the Myriad Beasts Hall had arrived, and they did not even know who he was, and yet, they were already asking him to be their hall master …
Are you sure you're not joking?
These were the Six Great Sects, the greatest powers in the Higher Heavens. Yet, they were choosing a sect master, not a cabbage?
Could it be that he felt that the sects had lived for too long and wanted to kill them off first?
Otherwise, he wouldn't have fallen into such a trap!
If not for the fact that he had seen the majestic mountain gate with his own eyes, he would have suspected that he had entered a multi-level marketing organization.
"Yes!" Sect Leader Qin nodded as he looked at Zhang Xuan with a fiery gaze.
After seeing Lin Fan with his own eyes, he was certain that Lin Fan was the most suitable candidate to be the Wan Shou Sect's patriarch.
This was especially so for the astounding Beast Taming Art. If they could pass it down, the overall strength of the sect would rise to a whole new level.
Seeing the earnest look on Zhang Xuan's face, it did not seem like he was trying to deceive him. Besides, there was nothing for him to deceive anyway. Thus, after a moment of contemplation, Zhang Xuan hesitated for a moment before replying, "I have urgent matters to attend to, so I need to head to the Sea of Exiled Stars. I won't be able to stay here for too long, and I don't know anything about the management of a sect …"
He had been Pavilion Master Mingshi Tang, the principal of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy, the head of the Zhang family, and so on, but he had never interfered with the affairs of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy.
If he were to become the sect master now … he really couldn't bring himself to do it.
"Actually, I don't know anything about the management of a sect. The Sect Leader is just a symbol. Only by guarding the sect can the disciples feel at ease. As for the specifics, the elders of the various peaks will handle them. There's no need to worry too much!"
Sect Leader Qin said.
Zhang Xuan was stunned for a moment before realization dawned on him.
That's right. The Sect Leader is the symbol of a sect. He doesn't need to know much about management. As long as he has enough strength and strength, it'll be fine.
"Furthermore, if you really intend to head to the Sea of Exiled Stars, you'll need the identity of the head of the Myriad Beasts Hall!"
Zhang Xuan was puzzled.
"The Sea of Exiled Stars is where the headquarters of Starchaser Palace is located. There are countless islands in the Sea of Exiled Stars, and each and every one of the islands is inhabited by the natives of the Forsaken Continent. Therefore, the chances of outsiders dying are very high. Even Celestial High Immortals can be found everywhere! "
Sect Leader Qin explained. "With the identity of the Sect Leader of the Wan Shou Clan, no matter what you do, you will have a guarantee. At the very least, no one will dare to cause trouble for you!"
He was the leader of one of the six major sects, the Wan Shou Sect. At least, no one dared to offend him.
Zhang Xuan nodded.
On the way here, he had asked Elder Liao about the situation in the Sea of Exiled Stars, and it was just as Elder Liao had said.
Not only were they a little xenophobic, but it was also said that they were skilled in slaughter, and their temperament wasn't too good either.
Not only would it be difficult for him to learn soul arts if he were to barge in recklessly, he would also be unable to find out anything about Lozosy.
Noticing Zhang Xuan's expression, Sect Leader Qin said, "Once you become the sect leader, you'll be able to mobilize the disciples hidden in the Sea of Exiled Stars as you wish. With that, it'll be much easier for you to gather information."
"This …" Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up. "Since that's the case, I'll agree to it!"
If he were to gather information by himself, who knew how long it would take for him to gather information? If he were to become the sect leader, it would be much easier for him to gather information with the disciples of the Myriad Beasts Hall!
Putting everything aside, there were many servants who had brought him to the Ascendant Cloud Mountain in the Azure.
As long as there were businesses and beast rentals, there should be plenty of them.
With so many people, it would be much easier to gather cultivation methods and inquire about Divine Blood Stones. There wouldn't be any more obstacles.
"That's great! I'll start preparing for the inauguration ceremony in a month's time!"
Sect Leader Qin hurriedly nodded.
"A month's time?" Zhang Xuan shook his head. "I can't wait that long. There's no need for the inauguration ceremony either. It's not convenient for me to show my face in public at the moment."
"It's not convenient?" Sect Leader Qin frowned.
The one who was going to succeed him was the sect leader, not some illegal organization. Why did he feel a little worried?
"I'm only at Heavenly True Immortal realm at the moment. Even though I might be able to defeat Heavenly High Immortal realm beasts through some kind of secret art, my cultivation is still too low. I fear that I'll attract the attention of the Hall of Gods …"
Zhang Xuan paused for a moment before continuing. "I heard that the genius who comprehended the Gods' Sword Intent in the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion was assaulted by the Hall of Gods. He was nearly killed. "
He had to be careful.
He did not have the golden page in his possession at the moment. If another powerful Heavenly High Immortal were to appear, he would be in a very disadvantageous position.
It was best to be careful.
"The Hall of Gods assaulted you?"
Sect Leader Qin narrowed his eyes. "I have already received a message from Han Jianqiu regarding this matter."
The reason why he was worried that the other party might be an expert from the Hall of Gods was due to the latter's overbearing attitude over the years.
He had known Han Jianqiu for many years, so he knew the latter's temperament very well. There was clearly something amiss about the latter appointing him as the sect leader without any warning.
After asking around, he learned that someone was trying to make a move on the disciple who had comprehended the Gods' Sword Intent.
Even though Han Jianqiu did not go into detail, it was clear that it was the Hall of Gods.
For a genius to appear in the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion and the Hall of Gods to act so viciously …
Would the same thing happen to the Myriad Beasts Sect as well?
Since that's the case, why don't I announce to the public that the position of the sect leader will be passed down to you? "Sect Leader Qin pondered for a moment before saying," You're right. Since that's the case, why don't I announce to the public that the position of the sect leader will be passed down to you? As an elder of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, your cultivation has already reached Heavenly High Immortal realm.
"Thank you, Sect Leader Qin."
Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.
If his cultivation was at Heavenly High Immortal realm, it would not be surprising for him to be able to tame three immortal beasts. If he was not that powerful, he would not have caught the attention of the Hall of Gods.
"Un."
Sect Leader Qin nodded. With a flick of his wrist, a token floated above his palm. Following which, a resounding voice echoed across the entire mountain range.
"From today onward, the position of the sect leader of the Myriad Beasts Sect shall be passed down to Elder Zheng Yang. He just tamed the Four Great Immortal Beasts of the Lingyun Mountain. His beast taming skills are unprecedented … "
After introducing Zhang Xuan in detail, what Sect Leader Qin said was exactly the same as what they had discussed earlier.
"We've also changed our sect leader?"
"Why haven't I heard of this Elder Zheng Yang before?"
"Didn't Sect Master just say it? Was he an Ascetic Elder? Not to mention elders, even many disciples don't know about ascetics! "
"That's true …"
…
As the voice rang out, all the disciples froze on the spot.
He was very curious about this Zheng Yang who had suddenly become the sect master.
However, with the precedent set by the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, they didn't cause too much of a commotion.
The Ascetic Cultivators weren't very famous. Many inner disciples didn't even know of them, let alone the Elders.
…
"The Sect Master is passing on his position just like that?"
Although Elder Yuan and the others had guessed that the Sect Leader would agree to it, they did not expect it to be so soon!
It had only been two hours since Zheng Yang arrived at the Myriad Beasts Sect, and he had already passed on his position.
This was way too efficient!
"Look, it's a Serpentine Dragon!"
"It should be the one from the Ascendant Cloud Mountain. There's also the Nine-headed Fiery Phoenix and the Seven-tailed Swordfang Tiger …"
"Indeed. It has indeed been tamed by the elders of the sect. Sect Leader Zheng Yang sure is incredible!"
While they were still in shock, a commotion suddenly broke out outside. Raising their heads, they saw the saint beasts of the Ascendant Cloud Mountain floating in the air, as if to show off Zheng Yang's achievements.
Initially, they were still a little doubtful about the sudden appearance of Elder Zheng Yang, but upon seeing this sight, they were completely convinced.
"Everyone, I am Zheng Yang, and I am your new Sect Leader. I have made some modifications to the beast taming techniques that you have learned previously. Disciples, please head over to Elder Ying's place to collect them!"
Following which, the voice of the new Sect Leader echoed in the air.
His dignified voice carried a sense of composure, inspiring admiration in the hearts of those present.
"A new beast taming technique?"
"The beast taming techniques of the Myriad Beasts Hall have been passed down for several thousand years. Isn't it a little too childish to change them just like that?"
"I think so too …"
All of the disciples were perplexed. They had no idea what the new Sect Leader was up to.
…
Mu Xu was an inner disciple of the Myriad Beasts Hall, and his overall ranking was around one thousand.
His ranking was not too bad compared to the other ten thousand inner disciples, but he was facing a huge problem at the moment.
He would be stripped of his identity as an inner disciple!
It was not because he had made a mistake or disrespected the sect, but because he had failed to tame a saint beast of equivalent strength within the three years he had been an inner disciple!
According to the rules of the Myriad Beasts Hall, those who were below twenty and had reached Ancient Sage 4-dan were eligible to become inner disciples. However, they had to tame a Dimension Shatterer realm saint beast within three years in order to retain their position.
Once the time limit was exceeded, they would be stripped of their identity as an inner disciple, and they might even be forced to leave the sect, never to return.
Three years might seem like a lot of time, but it was actually extremely tight for beast taming.
After all, beast taming required one to search, capture, and nurture one's relationship with one another. None of these steps were easy.
After becoming an inner disciple, Mu Xu had been searching for a suitable beast, and it was only last year that he had found one that suited him. It was a Dimension Shatterer realm pinnacle Stoneflame Beast!
The Stoneflame Beast was able to complement his cultivation technique and movement technique perfectly, allowing him to exert greater fighting prowess. However, the Stoneflame Beast had a proud personality, and it refused to submit to him. No matter what he did, the Stoneflame Beast remained unmoved.
He had prepared all kinds of delicacies and treasures for him, but the Stoneflame Beast did not even spare him a glance, as if he did not exist at all.
In the past year, he had tried more than twenty different beast taming techniques, but none of them had succeeded.
Today was the final day.
If he still failed, he would have no choice but to leave the Myriad Beasts Hall.
"I'll just have to give it my all!"
Mu Xu sighed deeply. Gritting his teeth, he pushed open the door and walked into the room.
There was a massive cage in the room, and within it was a Stoneflame Beast. It stood motionlessly on the spot, as if a statue.
