Previously, the other party was still fearful of him, and they were forced to back down with just a few words from him. However, from the looks of it now, they no longer cared about him.
What in the world could have happened for them to disregard even the young master's identity as a 4-star master teacher?
"What are you doing? Stop feigning ignorance! "
Sect Leader Luo Huang sneered coldly. "Where's Zhang Shi? Get him to come out right now, or else don't blame us for getting nasty! "
"Indeed. Even though Mingshi Tang has a rule that forbids us from making a move on ordinary people, given our standing, crippling a butler and a few students... Even if the headquarters were to investigate this matter, they wouldn't say anything!"
Sect Leader Bai's eyebrows shot up in disdain.
Master teachers weren't the kind bunch. Otherwise, they wouldn't have destroyed the soul oracle occupation without batting an eyelid and even chased the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe out of the Master Teacher Continent.
Just these two factors alone were enough to prove that they had been through a lot of bloodshed.
If these people refused to cooperate, crippling them or even killing them wouldn't be a big deal. As master teachers, they had certain privileges. It was just that their reputation would be affected a little.
"The young master is currently in seclusion, and we mustn't disturb him. If you really wish to look for him, come back tomorrow!"
Knowing that the other party was speaking the truth, Sun Qiang still gritted his teeth.
The young master had instructed him not to disturb the other party. Unless he were to die before the other party, he mustn't barge in before the other party!
"Since you're courting death, don't blame us!"
Not expecting this fellow to be so stubborn, Sect Leader Bai's eyebrows shot up, and he flicked his finger.
Peng!
A surge of sword qi flew toward Sun Qiang, and before he could even react, he was struck in the chest. Fresh blood spurted from his mouth, and he was severely injured.
Even the Demon Cinque Beast and Xue Yiyao were unable to withstand it, so how could he possibly withstand it? If not for the consideration of his identity, he would have been dead by now.
"Damn it!"
The eyes of Zheng Yang and the others reddened in fury. Roaring furiously, they charged forward.
However, they hadn't even reached Half-Transcension yet, so how could they possibly withstand the other party's might? With just a few flicks of Sect Leader Bai's finger, they were already lying on the ground.
Only when they realized that they were unable to harm the other party in the slightest despite using their full strength did they realize how insignificant they were.
All along, under the protection of their teacher, they had been able to cultivate without any worries. But now, they realized that without their teacher, they were nothing at all.
In the face of true danger, there was nothing he could do other than hold them back.
"Our patience is limited. Ask him to come out quickly, and we can spare your lives!"
With his hands behind his back, Sect Leader Luo Huang's eyes flashed like lightning.
"I told you that the young master is in seclusion, and no one is to disturb him …"
Sun Qiang struggled to stand up, while Zheng Yang and the others stood in front of him.
Even though he knew that he wouldn't be able to withstand it, he wouldn't back down.
Zhang Xuan was their young master, their teacher, and their lives. If they wanted to find trouble with him, they would have to step over their corpses.
"Since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish. Let's see if he can still hide after killing a few people!"
Seeing how these ant-like fellows dared to disregard his authority and try to resist, Sect Leader Luo Huang's face darkened and killing intent flashed in his eyes.
Aren't you hiding and refusing to come out?
Fine, let's see if you can still endure it after I kill a few people today.
Putting his index and middle fingers together, a surge of sword qi shot out. Just as Sect Leader Luo Huang was about to slash down on the crowd, two figures suddenly rushed over.
The one in the lead was an old man who exuded a powerful aura, and anxiety could be seen on his face.
"Sect Leader Luo, what do you mean by this?"
Before the old man could even arrive, a bellow reverberated across the entire courtyard.
"Zhang Shi is a master teacher of our Myriad Kingdom Alliance. You came to his residence and injured his subordinates and students. Are you declaring war on the Myriad Kingdom Alliance?"
His voice was filled with rage, as though a sharp blade.
Myriad Kingdom Alliance's Mingshi Tang Pavilion Master, Kang Gan!
The middle-aged man behind him had a dignified look on his face. With a single look, it was clear that he had been in a high position for a long time … Alliance Head Zhao of the League of Nations, Zhao Feiwu's father.
Given how huge the matter was, it was impossible to hide it from them.
Just that, neither of them could have imagined that Sect Leader Luo would send so many experts to find trouble with a 4-star master teacher who had just passed the examination.
The two of them could be said to be completely unrelated to one another. Even though Zhang Xuan had performed outstandingly in the selection round, he was still only at the level of the Myriad Kingdom Alliance. There was no need for so many experts to come together to deal with him!
"Declare war?"
Seeing Pavilion Master Kang arrive, Sect Leader Luo Huang chuckled lightly. Retracting the sword qi on his fingertip, he placed his hands behind his back and said, "Pavilion Master Kang, you're overthinking things. The reason why we're here is because we've received an unfair complaint, and we're here to deal with the scum of the master teachers. This has nothing to do with your Myriad Kingdom Alliance's Mingshi Tang Pavilion!"
"Deal with scum? What do you mean by that? "
Narrowing his eyes, Pavilion Master Kang frowned deeply.
Sun Qiang and the others were confused as well.
These fellows came to look for Zhang Shi as soon as they arrived, and yet, to deal with scum … What scum?
"It's simple. Someone told us that Zhang shi stole the treasure that belonged to him, killed his kin, and destroyed his kingdom as well!"
Sect Leader Luo Huang raised his eyebrows. "As master teachers, how dare you wreak havoc on a power without seeking Mingshi Tang's permission? Why … do we, as half 5-star master teachers, not have the right to question you?"
"This …"
Pavilion Master Kang was bewildered by the situation.
He had been busy preparing for the Master Teacher Tournament, so there were many things that he wasn't aware of. Besides, the matter regarding Xuanyuan Kingdom had been suppressed by Zhao Feiwu, so no one dared to leak it. On the other hand, Luo Qianhong and the others felt humiliated that they hadn't reported the matter to the higher-ups yet.
Even he wasn't too sure what was going on.
"Stole his treasures? This matter isn't as simple as it seems! "
Alliance Head Zhao had heard a little about it from his daughter, but he wasn't too sure about the details.
"It's not as simple as it seems? I have a witness here, so I can point out the matter personally … "
Sect Leader Luo Huang waved his hands, and a single-armed elder walked out from the crowd.
Ding Hong!
Upon learning that Zhang Xuan lived in this residence, his eyes were filled with intense hatred.
"My grandson, Ding Mu, was killed by this Zhang Xuan, and my Xuanyuan Kingdom was forcefully taken over by him. In fact, even this arm of mine was severed by him. Due to this, I was forced to live like a stray dog, unable to return to my country, unable to return to my home …"
Roaring furiously, Ding Hong continued, "The reason why he acted so viciously is because of a single treasure … Kong Shi's handwritten letter!"
"Kong Shi's handwritten letter?"
Pavilion Master Kang's eyebrows twitched.
Even though he had no idea what it was, as long as it was related to Kong Shi, it was incomparably valuable.
"Indeed. Because of a single Kong Shi's handwritten letter, he destroyed my entire clan. Is this the doing of a master teacher?" Ding Hong roared.
His words were extremely misleading. Those who didn't know the truth would think that Zhang Xuan was the culprit behind Kong Shi's handwritten letter.
Actually, his words weren't wrong. It was indeed because of a single handwritten letter that Ding Hong ended up in such a state.
"You … Nonsense, it was your grandson who forcefully snatched it …"
Hearing the other party distort the truth, Zheng Yang was so furious that he felt as though his lungs were about to explode. He bellowed furiously.
"Audacious! Do you think that an insignificant figure like you can interrupt our conversation?"
Before Zheng Yang could finish his words, Sect Leader Luo Huang waved his hands grandly.
Hu!
A surge of energy gushed toward Zheng Yang, Sun Qiang, and the others, sealing their mouths. No matter how they tried to speak, they were unable to do so.
"What are you doing?" Pavilion Master Kang's face darkened.
"It's nothing much. I just don't want to hear other people's words when I'm explaining things!"
Sect Leader Luo Huang glanced at Pavilion Master Kang impassively. "Why? Did Pavilion Master Kang not hear what I said earlier? As a 4-star pinnacle master teacher, you should be able to tell whether this Emperor Ding Hong is lying or not! "
Master teachers had the ability to discern the truth from one's expression. This was especially so for a 4-star master teacher whose cultivation didn't exceed that of a 4-star pinnacle master teacher. It was impossible for one to lie without being noticed.
This was precisely the reason why everyone present believed Ding Hong's words without a doubt after hearing about the matter regarding Kong Shi's handwritten letter.
They could easily tell that this fellow wasn't lying at all on this matter.
"This …"
Pavilion Master Kang was unable to refute Ding Hong's words.
Even though the one-armed Emperor Ding Hong spoke fiercely... he had paid close attention to the other party's words, and his rage came from the bottom of his heart. There was no way he was faking it.
Zhang Shi killed his grandson and destroyed his kingdom?
Because... he wanted to snatch Kong Shi's handwritten letter?
After all, he had known Zhang Shi for quite some time now, and he had some understanding of Zhang Shi's character.
To be able to casually give a middle-tier spirit stone to Ruohuan gongzi, it was clear that the other party wasn't a greedy person.
But... the implications of obtaining Kong Shi's handwritten letter were simply too great.
There was no master teacher who could reject it. Could it be that... it was because of this?
"Zhang Xuan disregarded the etiquette of a master teacher and plundered the other party's handwritten letter, even going to the extent of killing and destroying a kingdom. Furthermore, when we, half 5-star master teachers, paid a visit to him in the usual manner, not only did he refuse to come out, he even had his subordinates insult us. Just this point alone is enough to prove that he has no respect for his teachers. Thus, we can strip him of his master teacher rank and hand him over to the Disciplinary Hall! "
Seeing the doubt in Pavilion Master Kang's eyes, Sect Leader Luo Huang stepped forward and declared.
His tone carried the soul interference of a Consonant Spirit realm expert, making it hard for one to believe that he was speaking the truth.
"This matter isn't that simple. It's best for us to investigate it thoroughly first..."
Pavilion Master Kang still couldn't believe that Zhang Shi would do such a thing.
"Investigate it thoroughly? Is there a need for that? As long as you get him out and check if he has Kong Shi's handwritten letter on him, won't everything be clear? "
Sect Leader Luo Huang flung his sleeves.
"This …"
Pavilion Master Kang was speechless.
If Zhang Xuan really had Kong Shi's handwritten letter on him, there was no way he could explain this matter.
"Alright, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and hand Zhang shi over. Are you going to let us waste our time here?"
Frowning, Sect Leader Luo Huang was just about to continue speaking when he suddenly felt an extremely powerful aura soaring into the clouds. Following which, a cold and emotionless voice echoed in the air.
"To think that you would use such a dignified reason to snatch him in public. The master teachers of the Miryu Empire have truly opened my eyes!"
Following which, a figure walked through the air. His clothes fluttered in the wind, reminiscent of a deity descending from the heavens.
"Flying? S-Saint? "
Sect Leader Luo Huang and the others narrowed their eyes.
