According to the rules of the academy, twenty thousand students had to pass the examination before they could advance to the Master Teacher Academy. Yet, only six thousand students had passed. Didn't that mean that they would have to eliminate another twenty thousand students?
For a proper examination to end up in such a state, how was he supposed to explain it to the academy?
"Yes!" The senior nodded.
Elder Mi's complexion turned awful.
Didn't the Byzantium Helios Beast promise him that it would ensure that the twenty thousand students would pass the examination? Why … is it so strict? Why is it only six thousand?
That fellow had always been reliable, so why was it so unreliable this time?
Hearing the passing rate, Zhang Xuan was taken aback. When he first arrived, he saw that nearly half of the students had cleared the examination, so he thought that the passing rate would be around the same. However, from the looks of it now, it wasn't as easy as he thought.
"It's all that Byzantium Helios Beast's fault. I must teach him a lesson when I get back!"
A glint flashed across Zhang Xuan's eyes.
If not for the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe spy messing around, how could the passing rate be so low?
The Master Teacher Academy might not be a problem to him, but to the other master teachers, it was a blessed land for them to advance their cultivation. Being able to enter meant that they would be able to achieve great things in the future.
Just as Zhang Xuan was thinking about how he should deal with the saint beast, he suddenly heard Elder Mi clasping his fist and looking at him anxiously.
"The two of you, please wait here for a moment. I have some matters to attend to!"
After saying those words, he leaped into the air and flew away.
He wanted to ask the other party what the hell the Byzantium Helios Beast was up to to fail so many people.
Executing his Saint 1-dan pinnacle cultivation, Zhang Xuan's speed soared, and it only took him a few minutes to reach the top of the mountain.
"Elder Byzantium Helios..."
While in midair, Zhang Xuan called out.
As the tamed beast of the old principal, the Byzantium Helios Beast was much older than him. Even the other nine master teachers had to address the other party respectfully as their elder.
Hearing no response, Zhang Xuan walked up to the straw cottage, and just as he was about to speak, his eyes suddenly narrowed.
The snow-covered ground before him was now riddled with depressions, and there were signs of spiritual energy gathering in the surroundings.
"This is... the aftermath of a battle between Saint realm experts!"
As a 6-star master teacher, Zhang Xuan possessed a sharp eye of discernment. With a single glance, he could tell that this was the aftermath of a battle between Saint realm experts.
"Could it be..."
Narrowing his eyes, Zhang Xuan hurriedly pushed open the door and walked into the straw hut, clenching his fists tightly.
The Byzantium Helios Beast had always been a lazy beast. Under normal circumstances, it would have been resting in there. But for the Byzantium Helios Beast to be completely empty, and there were battle marks all over the ground, didn't this mean that … something had happened?
"Who is it? How dare you assault Senior Byzantium Helios in the Master Teacher Academy? "
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes, and killing intent flashed in his eyes.
The Byzantium Helios Beast was the tamed beast of the old principal, and it represented the honor and dignity of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy. To make a move on the Byzantium Helios Beast here meant that the other party was openly challenging the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy and disrespecting Mingshi Tang!
He floated in front of the thatched hut and looked at the marks on the ground.
"Judging from the size of the craters, they should have been left behind by Senior Byzantium Helios. As for the other footprints, they are slightly larger than normal …"
Zhang Xuan walked up to one of the footprints and pinched the ground with his fingers. In the next moment, his eyes narrowed.
"Slaughter Qi? It's … an Otherworldly Demon! "
As a 6-star pinnacle master teacher, he had a deep understanding of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe. Judging from the faint killing intent emanating from the footprints, it was clear that they were left behind by an Otherworldly Demon!
"One, two, three … More than twenty Saint realm Otherworldly Demons worked together to deal with Senior Byzantium Helios?"
After counting the number, School Head Mo clenched his fists tightly.
It was no wonder why the Byzantium Helios Beast had disappeared. To think that there would be more than twenty Saint realm Otherworldly Demons here!
This was the territory of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy! How could an Otherworldly Demon sneak into the crowd and capture the Byzantium Helios Beast without being noticed?
"This won't do. I have to report this matter to the academy and Mingshi Tang immediately!"
The appearance of twenty Otherworldly Demons was a huge matter that could affect the stability of mankind. He had to investigate the matter as soon as possible, or else the entire Hongyuan City could be in danger!
With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan dared not hesitate any longer. He quickly flew down the mountain and returned to the gazebo.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing his old friend rushing back with an awful complexion, Mo Gaoyuan was perplexed.
"This …"
Elder Mi shot a glance at Zhang Xuan, but he didn't say a word.
The appearance of a Saint realm Otherworldly Demon was a huge matter. Even as one of the Ten Great Master Teachers, he didn't dare to take such a risk.
"Since the two of you have important matters to discuss, I won't disturb you anymore …"
Seeing the other party's hesitation, Zhang Xuan knew that it wasn't convenient for him to speak in his presence. Thus, he clasped his fist and smiled.
"Actually … it's nothing much!" Hearing that the other party was leaving, Elder Mi felt a little embarrassed.
It was just a moment ago that he wanted to take the other party in as his disciple, but now that he had something to discuss with him, it was clear that he was treating the other party as an outsider.
After a moment of hesitation, School Head Mo said, "This matter is of great importance, but I trust Zhang shi's character, so there's no harm in telling you about it!" "I have found traces of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe!"
"What realm are they at?" Mo Gaoyuan asked.
"They are stronger than me, and there are quite a few of them!"
Elder Mi deduced.
Even though there were more than twenty Saint realm experts surrounding them, given Senior Byzantium Helios's strength, he should have been able to send a message out. Yet, the fact that nothing was left behind meant that there was an expert beyond Saint 1-dan among them.
"Even stronger than you?"
Mo Gaoyuan's face turned grim.
On the other hand, Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes.
He had already suspected that the Byzantium Helios Beast was an Otherworldly Demon spy, and from the looks of it now, his suspicions were confirmed.
Without a doubt, the Byzantium Helios Beast was the tamed beast of the Saint 1-dan Otherworldly Demon!
Otherwise, why would the Byzantium Helios Beast be so loyal to him?
"I have indeed saved so many master teachers!"
Zhang Xuan nodded in agreement.
If the scheme of the Byzantium Helios Beast and the Otherworldly Demon had succeeded, it wouldn't just be a problem of the twenty thousand master teachers failing to clear the trial.
The Master Teacher Academy would be in grave danger as a result.
Even though he hadn't been in this world for long, as a master teacher, he still had to uphold the responsibilities of a master teacher. If he could stop an Otherworldly Demon spy, he would never back down!
"I hope that the two of you will keep this matter a secret. I will hold a meeting with the Ten Great Master Teachers to resolve this matter as soon as possible!"
After which, Elder Mi instructed.
The duo nodded.
Since the matter concerned the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, they had to keep it a secret. Otherwise, it could easily incite panic among the Master Teacher Academy.
Pavilion Master Mo hesitated for a moment before asking, "Un. The more confidential the news, the better. Right, what should we do with the freshmen?"
"This …" Elder Mi rubbed his glabella in distress.
He was troubled as well.
He had thought that with the Byzantium Helios Beast leading the examination, it wouldn't be a problem for them to clear the twenty thousand students. Who could have thought that the Byzantium Helios Beast would be besieged by the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, and it was currently unknown whether he was dead or alive.
Initially, they had planned to accept twenty thousand students, but only six thousand or so had passed. How could they explain this matter to the Master Teacher Academy?
If they were to conduct the examination once more, it would truly be a joke.
Furthermore, it would be a huge loss for the Master Teacher Academy to only accept six thousand students.
Zhang Xuan pondered for a moment before saying, "Elder Mi, I have an idea!"
"Please speak." Elder Mi and Pavilion Master Mo turned to look at Zhang Xuan.
"Didn't you say that we can split the points we obtain from the joint hunt?"
Zhang Xuan smiled. "I have more than forty thousand points now. Even if we split it among everyone, it should be more than enough for us to distribute it to the freshmen who don't have any points!"
"This …"
Elder Mi was taken aback. "You worked hard to earn these points, how can you …"
"It's fine, there's no point in keeping the points. You said that there are Otherworldly Demons who intend to launch an assault on us … Since that's the case, it's best for the team to be as large as possible. These geniuses have been selected from all over the Master Teacher Continent, and giving them a chance is equivalent to giving mankind a future and hope! I hope that you can let go of those etiquette! "
Zhang Xuan waved his hands.
Given how many points he had, it was useless for him to keep them. Thus, he might as well do the other party a favor and accumulate some reputation for himself.
In order to reach a higher rank as a master teacher, not only did one's cultivation have to be high, one's reputation was also very important. If one couldn't achieve such a feat, how could one be worthy of the title 'master teacher'?
"This … Alright. Since Zhang Shi has made such a decision, I won't turn you down. I'll inform all of the master teachers of this matter right now!"
Hearing Zhang Xuan's words, Elder Mi clasped his fist with a grim expression.
He was still thinking about the individual, but the other party had already thought of mankind and how to make master teachers stronger!
"This is the magnanimity and magnanimity of a master teacher …"
Zhang Xuan remarked in awe.
If he had only treated Zhang Xuan as a junior previously, at this moment, he was definitely treating him as an equal.
How magnanimous must one be to be able to do such a thing?
As expected of Yang shi's direct disciple, his eye of discernment and knowledge were on a completely different level.
"I'll have to trouble Elder Mi then!"
Zhang Xuan clasped his fist.
"I'm the one who should be troubling you. If not for your actions, I wouldn't even know how I would have ended the examination … How about this, I'll owe you a favor!"
Elder Mi said.
If the other party didn't distribute the points to the other party, going by the rules, they would only be able to recruit six thousand people. If so, the examination would become the greatest joke in the world.
His dignity as one of the Ten Great Master Teachers would be tarnished as well.
It could be said that the other party had not only saved the fates of countless master teachers, he had also saved his dignity as well.
"This …"
Zhang Xuan scratched his head.
Actually … favors were useless. If only he could give him a few high-tier spirit stones …
"Accept it. It's not easy to get a favor from Elder Mi. I've known him for more than two hundred years, but I've never received a favor from him!"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was still unwilling, Mo Gaoyuan hurriedly said.
As one of the Ten Great Master Teachers, Elder Mi had always been a man of integrity, not even accepting a direct disciple. From this, it could be seen how high his expectations were.
It wasn't easy to owe a favor from such a person.
"Thank you, Elder Mi!" Zhang Xuan could only nod his head reluctantly.
If others were to know that he was only interested in high-tier spirit stones instead of a favor from Elder Mi, they would surely kick him to death.
Which of the Ten Great Master Teachers of Hongyuan Empire wasn't a renowned figure?
A favor from them was something that no amount of money could buy.
If Zhang Xuan were to use this favor to exchange for high-tier spirit stones from the royal family of Hongyuan Empire, he would probably be able to exchange for dozens of high-tier spirit stones!
Furthermore, it would be a favor that he couldn't ask for more!
To think that you would turn down such a valuable gift … Why don't you just die!
