As a person born in the information age, Zhang Xuan was unwilling to kill anyone that he could solve. However, no one could have imagined that this would be the reason why Lu Chong would be harmed.
If he had known this would happen, he would have gotten Little Su to kill Lin Long and Commander Liang. Otherwise, such a matter wouldn't have happened.
"Revenge?"
Mo Yu frowned. "Of course, we have to exact vengeance, but... do you know anything about Xuanyuan Kingdom?"
Zhang Xuan shook his head.
As an empire that was stronger than Tianwu Kingdom, Xuanyuan Kingdom had to be kept under wraps. As such, very few people knew about it, and it was impossible for it to be placed in the book collection vault for everyone to see.
As such, Zhang Xuan did have a brief description of Xuanyuan Kingdom in his head, but when it came to classified information, it was vague. Thus, even after browsing through the entire book collection vault, he still didn't know much about the Conferred Kingdom.
At the very least, he wasn't clear about the strength of the Conferred Kingdom.
"You want to exact vengeance even though you don't know much about it?"
Mo Yu rolled her eyes at Zhang Xuan.
You sure are gutsy. The person you want to exact vengeance on is the crown prince of Xuanyuan Kingdom. The old emperor is severely ill, and he could ascend the throne at any moment.
Such a person is more than capable of mobilizing the strength of an entire country to fight against him.
Putting aside how many soldiers a Conferred Kingdom has, just the sheer number of experts it has means that it is impossible for a single person to barge into the Conferred Kingdom.
Unless one possesses strength on par with Su shi.
Furthermore, even if one possesses strength on par with the current emperor, one would surely face all kinds of obstructions if one wishes to kill the crown prince.
"In order to have a certain standing and reputation in Xuanyuan Kingdom, one must at least reach Zhizun realm intermediate stage! Even though your current cultivation is already at Half-Zhizun realm, compared to a true Zhizun realm expert... you are still lacking! "
After hesitating for a moment, Mo Yu spoke in a more neutral tone.
The other party had just lost his student, and she was afraid that if she were to speak too harshly, it might agitate the other party and cause even more trouble.
"It's not that I'm lacking. I won't stand a chance against a Zhizun realm expert!" Zhang Xuan waved his hands.
Zhizun realm was the pinnacle of a Fighter. Upon reaching intermediate stage, one would possess a strength of 20,000 ding. At advanced stage, 30,000 ding, and pinnacle, 40,000 ding.
Even with the strength of his physical body and zhenqi, he only had a total of 15,000 ding of zhenqi. Compared to Zhizun realm cultivators, he was still a long way off.
Furthermore, at this level of cultivation, strength was only a measure of strength. Breaking through to Zhizun realm, regardless of whether it was in terms of reaction speed, knowledge, or comprehension of martial arts, it was something that Zongshi realm experts were no match for.
"It's good that you know. My opinion is that... the Master Teacher Tournament will begin three months later, so it's not a good time to get involved in any trouble. As long as you participate in the Grand Competition, you can get a good ranking. With this, he would be able to request the Master Teacher Guild to exact vengeance for him! At that time, no one will say anything, and it will be the most convenient and simple! "
Mo Yu said as she shared her thoughts with Zhang Xuan.
The Master Teacher Tournament would be in three months' time. If he were to forcefully exact his vengeance, what would he do if he were to get injured or face danger?
He might as well participate in the Grand Competition first and win a good ranking and status. When the time came, he would be invincible. Even if someone wanted to protect him, they wouldn't be able to.
Even though the status of a master teacher was high, it was only relative.
2-star master teachers were formidable in Tianwu Kingdom, but in Xuanyuan Kingdom and the League of Nations, they couldn't even cause a ripple.
Only when one possessed greater strength or made others realize that his potential was limitless would he be able to attract the attention of others. No one would dare to make an enemy out of him.
Otherwise, no matter how much he said, it would be pointless.
"Even if I can't wait for three months, I believe that... Lu Chong wouldn't be willing to make me wait either!"
Glancing at his unconscious student, Zhang Xuan's eyes gleamed.
Three months was too long, he had to make the best use of his time.
After causing Lu Chong to such a state, how could he allow him to live freely for three months? You must be joking!
"But your cultivation... You haven't even reached Half-Zhizun yet. How are you going to exact vengeance? Even if you want to, you should at least reach Zhizun realm pinnacle before you dare to head over. Otherwise, you could easily get yourself killed... "
Seeing that the other party had already made up his mind, Mo Yu panicked.
What was wrong with this fellow?
Didn't I say that even Zhizun realm experts wouldn't dare to act recklessly in Xuanyuan Kingdom? You haven't even reached Half-Zhizun yet, and yet you dare to head over. Aren't you courting death?
One must know that there were plenty of Zhizun realm pinnacle experts in Conferred Kingdoms. In order to become truly invincible, one had to at least reach Half-Transcension.
"Only Zhizun realm pinnacle dares to head over? That's simple! "Zhang Xuan said.
"Simple? Could it be that... you have a solution? "Seeing how confident the other party was, Mo Yu's eyes lit up.
It seemed like the other party had something to back him up. She had been overthinking things...
She knew it. How could such a genius do such a reckless thing!
Heaving a sigh of relief, she was just about to ask what gave him such confidence when the young man replied with a grim expression, "Simple. I just have to find a way to reach Zhizun realm pinnacle in the next few days!"
Pu!
Mo Yu's body swayed, and she nearly choked to death on her own saliva.
The heck!
Can't you be a little better?
Zhizun realm was the final hurdle of a fighter, and it was several times more difficult than Zongshi realm.
Do you think that you can find a whole bunch of cabbages in the market? A whole bunch of cabbages?
Find a way to reach Zhizun realm in the next few days...
Can't we talk nicely?
If those Zongshi realm pinnacle experts were to hear your words, they would surely pummel you to death on the spot.
She was still wondering what kind of solution he had, but to think that it would be this...
"Zhao Ya, why aren't you persuading your teacher..."
Unable to hold herself back, she turned to the lady beside her.
"Persuade? Teacher is right, why should I persuade him? "Zhao Ya asked doubtfully.
"..."
Mo Yu was frenzied. "That's Zhizun realm, Zhizun realm! It isn't that easy to achieve a breakthrough! Even if he were to cultivate for three months, he still wouldn't be able to achieve a breakthrough... "
"Teacher only took a month to advance from Pixue realm to his current level. When he first came to Tianwu Royal City, he was only at Tongxuan realm pinnacle. Now, he's already at Zongshi realm pinnacle, and in just ten short days... It's fine, don't worry!"
Zhao Ya consoled.
Along the way, all kinds of incredible things had happened to their teacher. Even if he were to reach Transcendent Mortal realm tomorrow, they would still believe it.
Look at how flustered you are over such a huge matter.
"..." Mo Yu.
What kind of people were these!
Not only were they not shocked or panicked by his breakthrough to Zhizun realm within a few days, they even thought that it was natural for him to do so?
She hurriedly turned to look at Zheng Yang, Wang Ying, and the others.
All of them were looking at her with disdain, as though saying, 'Look at how ignorant you are...'
Mo Yu's body swayed, and she spurted a mouthful of blood.
To think that the princess of Tianwu Kingdom, a 1-star master teacher, would be looked down on by a bunch of students... Was there any justice in this world?
But... Thinking about it, Mo Yu's words made sense.
The fellow before her couldn't be judged using common sense. When he took the master teacher examination, he had just reached Zongshi realm. Yet, when he fought with the Lin Clan, he was already at Zongshi realm pinnacle...
Furthermore, it seemed like only six to seven days had passed!
If it was that easy to reach Zongshi realm... Perhaps, just like what he said, Zhizun realm could be achieved in just a few days.
"Even if he can reach Zhizun realm pinnacle, Ding Mu is the heir apparent of a Conferred Kingdom. Making a move on him is equivalent to challenging the authority of a kingdom. I fear that... the Mingshi Tang will stop us!"
Suppressing the stifled feeling of being looked down upon, Mo Yu decided not to harp on this topic any further.
"Stop them? Isn't the Mingshi Tang supposed to protect master teachers? "Frowning, Zhang Xuan was perplexed.
The Mingshi Tang was an organization of master teachers.
Now that a master teacher had been humiliated and someone was trying to assassinate him, it was already good of them not to avenge him. Why would they protect the culprit?
"The Mingshi Tang is supposed to protect master teachers, but... since a Conferred Kingdom is involved, that might not necessarily be the case! If the heir apparent were to be killed, the entire kingdom would be plunged into chaos. It might even lead to a war, resulting in the loss of millions of lives. In order to prevent such a thing from happening, the Mingshi Tang would probably choose the other party instead of you! After all, you are just a 2-star primary master teacher. You don't carry enough weight... "
Mo Yu continued, "Besides, the Mingshi Tang of Xuanyuan Kingdom has been in close contact with the royal family for a very long time. There is bound to be someone protecting you. As an outsider, if you were to charge in recklessly, you might be ostracized!"
"This..."
Zhang Xuan paused for a moment.
Even though her words were infuriating, there was a high possibility that they were true.
The reason for the existence of the Mingshi Tang was to maintain peace and avoid wars.
If he were to charge in and kill the crown prince and heir apparent, it would be impossible for him not to dissuade him.
Besides, no matter how transcendent the Mingshi Tang was, it had been in Xuanyuan Kingdom for many years. There was bound to be certain ways of dealing with people. Given the identity of an outsider 2-star master teacher, it was indeed difficult for the other party to ignore him.
Rules were selfless, but humans were sentient.
"This is indeed a problem!"
After thinking through all of this, Zhang Xuan nodded. Then, he turned to Mo Yu and asked, "Is there no solution?"
"There is, but... it's too difficult!"
Mo Yu shook her head.
"Oh?"
"If you want the Mingshi Tang of Xuanyuan Kingdom to not cause trouble and even help you, you have to think of a way to make them listen to you," Mo Yu said.
"Listen to me? Do you mean... Pavilion Crashing? "Zhang Xuan was taken aback.
There was indeed a way to make the Mingshi Tang of a place listen to a master teacher, and that was... Pavilion Crashing!
It was similar to the challenge of a martial arts school.
Using one's strength, one could challenge the Mingshi Tang. As long as one could clear the challenge, regardless of one's strength or request, the Mingshi Tang would listen to it unconditionally.
This term was recorded in the books of the Mingshi Tang. Now that the other party mentioned it, Zhang Xuan immediately recalled it.
"That's right, Pavilion Crashing! However, the pavilion master of the Mingshi Tang of Xuanyuan Kingdom is a 3-star master teacher, and his cultivation is at Half-Transcension as well... Without the strength and capability of a 4-star master teacher, it is impossible to achieve Pavilion Crashing! "
Mo Yu said slowly.
The pavilion master and elders of the Mingshi Tang of Xuanyuan Kingdom were all 3-star master teachers, and their strength was frighteningly powerful.
Pavilion crashing involved many aspects, just like Pill Debate. Without absolute strength and knowledge, it was impossible for one to succeed.
"It's fine if they are tactful and don't interfere in this matter... But if they insist on protecting the crown prince..."
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists tightly. "Then, I don't mind... giving it a try!"
