"Alright, arrange for them to stay in the academy. Tomorrow, we'll start choosing our teachers..."
After explaining the matter, School Head Mo arranged for the seniors to lead the freshmen to their lodgings in the academy before returning to the gazebo.
"Zhang Shi, you shouldn't stay with them. You won't be able to cultivate in that kind of dormitory. Follow me back to the academy first, and I'll arrange for you to stay in your own residence!"
As one of the Ten Great Master Teachers, he had the authority to make arrangements for the accommodation of the students.
Naturally, a top genius like Zhang Shi couldn't stay in the same dormitory as the others.
"Thank you, Elder Mi..."
Understanding the other party's intentions, Zhang Xuan clasped his fist.
He had too many secrets, and it would be best if he could stay alone.
Mo Gaoyuan had his Langya Saint Beast come over, and the three of them stepped onto its back. Then, they flew toward the academy.
With the seniors and Bai shi around, there was nothing for them to worry about.
The saint beast flew swiftly, and before long, a massive academy appeared before their eyes.
Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy housed a hundred thousand master teachers. There were lakes and mountains in the academy, and from a bird's eye view, it looked like a royal city.
Even the Myriad Kingdom City of the League of Nations paled in comparison.
It was no wonder why it was said that the top geniuses of countless empires gathered here. Just in terms of size, it was something that those smaller kingdoms and empires couldn't compare with.
"This is the Elite District, a place where only the most outstanding master teachers of each grade can stay. Take my token and look for the students in charge to arrange accommodation for us. Pavilion Master Mo and I will report this matter to the other elders!"
Not long after, the Langya Saint Beast stopped in front of an area.
Elder Mi flicked his wrist, and a token fell into Zhang Xuan's hands.
Taking the token, Zhang Xuan lowered his head to take a look. There were mountains and rivers below, and exquisite courtyards lined up side by side.
Every single courtyard had a Spirit Gathering Formation set up around it. Even before entering, one would feel refreshed and energized.
"As expected of the Elite District, it's indeed extraordinary!"
Taking a look, Zhang Xuan nodded in approval.
These Spirit Gathering Formations were of a much higher tier than the formation plates he had inscribed. All of them were 6-star, and with the various means he had up his sleeves, it was likely that he would be able to cultivate faster here than anywhere else.
It seemed like those who were able to stay here were the most outstanding geniuses of the academy. Otherwise, even with the wealth of the Master Teacher Academy and the Mingshi Tang Academy, they wouldn't be able to afford it.
"Alright, I'm going down!"
Without any hesitation, he leaped down from the back of the Langya Saint Beast.
Elder Mi and Mo Gaoyuan glanced at each other. The Holy Beast beneath them flashed and flew straight ahead.
News regarding the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe was of the utmost importance, and they couldn't afford to waste any time.
A few minutes later, the two of them arrived at a sealed room.
There were a total of 11 seats in this room, and each seat represented one's identity.
It was the seat of the Ten Great Master Teachers and the old principal.
The room was sealed off by a powerful formation. No matter what was discussed, it would not leak out.
"Why did you summon us here so urgently?"
Shortly after the two of them sat down, a few elders pushed open the door and walked in with a deep frown on their foreheads.
The last time they were summoned was when the old principal went missing. What could have happened this time around for Elder Mi and Pavilion Master Mo to mobilize so many of them?
"Take a seat first. We'll talk about it when everyone is here!"
Elder Mi waved his hands.
The few elders who had just entered nodded and sat down.
Not too long later, the door opened once more, and a few more elders walked in.
Soon, all 11 seats were filled.
"Elder Mi, Pavilion Master Mo, what's the matter?"
A white-bearded elder who seemed to be the oldest among them waved his hands.
"Un."
Elder Mi nodded. Flicking his wrist, he took out a Record Crystal and said, "Before I speak, please take a look at this …"
After which, he tapped his finger, and a pile of rubble from the battle appeared before everyone's eyes.
Back when he was on the mountain, he had already recorded the traces that he had seen.
Seeing the rubble on the Record Crystal, the elders were bewildered. However, after taking a closer look, a deep frown appeared on their faces.
"These are … the traces left behind by the Otherworldly Demons? What happened to Senior Byzantium Helios? "
The white-bearded elder couldn't help but ask.
Everyone quickly turned their gazes over.
As one of the Ten Great Master Teachers and a 6-star pinnacle master teacher, he was able to deduce who had fought with the Otherworldly Demons just by looking at the traces left behind by the Record Crystal.
"Senior Byzantium Helios … has gone missing!"
Elder Mi said.
"Gone missing?" The master teachers were stunned. Even Mo Gaoyuan couldn't believe his ears.
Previously, when they were outside, Elder Mi had only said that he had found traces of the Otherworldly Demons, but he hadn't gone into detail. Even he couldn't have imagined that the Byzantium Helios Beast would be surrounded by the Otherworldly Demons.
"Un. It's like this …"
Elder Mi didn't dare to hide the truth, so he recounted the agreement he had with the Byzantium Helios Beast and the situation on the mountain.
"How dare they come to Hongyuan City to abduct the Byzantium Helios Beast! If we don't capture those Otherworldly Demons, where will the dignity of our Master Teacher Academy be? "
The white-bearded elder waved his hands as a sharp glint flashed across his eyes.
The Ten Great Master Teachers ruled over the entire academy, and each of them was in charge of a school. Take Elder Mi for example, he was also the head of the Beast Tamer School.
The white-bearded elder was the head of the Martial Arts School, Xu Changqing.
"This isn't a matter of dignity but Senior Byzantium Helios Beast's safety!" a female elder harrumphed.
The head of the Terpsichore School, Wei Ranxue.
"Senior Byzantium Helios Beast is the tamed beast of the old principal, and we have gone through life-and-death situations together. We have slain countless Otherworldly Demons together, and we have made great contributions to the academy. If something were to happen to him, how can we face our principal in the future? How can we remain as one of the Ten Great Master Teachers? "
"Indeed! Senior Byzantium Helios Beast's safety can't be compromised. We don't have any leads on him at the moment, so we mustn't act recklessly! "
Elder Mi waved his hands. "What we should do now is to investigate the matter and find out where Senior Byzantium Helios Beast is. If he's still alive, we'll try to save him. If he's really killed, we'll have to exact vengeance for him even at the cost of my own life!"
"I agree. However, I think that it would be best for us to do this discreetly. If we were to make too much of a ruckus and alert the enemy, we might end up falling into their trap instead."
"Indeed. Since the Otherworldly Demons dared to make a move on Senior Byzantium Helios Beast, there's a good chance that they'll make a move on our academy as well. While investigating the matter, we should be careful not to fall into their trap!"
Another two elders said.
"That's exactly what I'm worried about as well. I'm afraid that the Otherworldly Demons are intentionally leaving behind traces to lure us into their trap …" Elder Mi said with a frown.
The traces left behind on Leiyuan Peak were extremely obvious, and he had been worried that the Otherworldly Demons were plotting against him. Otherwise, he would have already scouted the area.
"Senior Byzantium Helios Beast is far stronger than any of us here. If even he can't withstand the Otherworldly Demons, it'll be difficult for us to save him even if we find him!"
After a moment of discussion, the head of the Apothecary School was unable to come up with a solution.
The crowd nodded in agreement.
The Byzantium Helios Beast was a Saint 1-dan pinnacle cultivator, the same cultivation realm as them. However, as a saint beast, its fighting prowess far surpassed that of the rest of them. Yet, even it was unable to withstand the Otherworldly Demons' attack, and it didn't even have the time to warn them. From this, it could be seen how fearsome the Otherworldly Demons were.
If such a powerful opponent were to be found, what could they possibly do?
"In a few days' time, Conferred Empire's Mu shi will be here to appoint a new principal. At the same time, he'll be investigating the cause of the death of the old principal. We can report this matter to him and have him investigate the matter!"
The head of the Apothecary School said.
"This …" The crowd hesitated.
If they were to report this matter to the higher-ups, wouldn't it make them look weak?
"I know what you are worried about. To be able to trap Senior Byzantium Helios Beast discreetly, the other party's strength far exceeds our expectations. We have to report this matter to the higher-ups!"
The head of the Apothecary School said.
The Apothecary School was the number one school in the Master Teacher Academy, and as one of the Ten Great Master Teachers, his words carried far more weight than the others.
"Alright then …"
The crowd nodded. Just as they were about to continue discussing what they should do next, the head of the Apothecary School flicked his wrist, and a Communication Jade Token appeared in his hand. Taking a look at it, his eyebrows shot up.
"Everyone, follow me. Mu shi has arrived!"
"He has arrived? How did he arrive so quickly? "
"Didn't he say that he would arrive in a few days' time?"
"We really don't understand the actions of the elders. Have you forgotten? A month ago, he said that he would be able to arrive, but he still hasn't arrived yet …"
"You're right!"
The crowd was perplexed.
Mu shi from the Conferred Empire had said that he would be leaving the headquarters a month ago, but no matter how long they waited, he still didn't arrive. Just as they were about to leave, he suddenly arrived.
It was beyond everyone's expectations.
Amidst the discussions, the crowd walked out of the Apothecary School and arrived at the main hall where the elders were receiving guests. There, they saw a white-bearded elder seated at the center of the hall. Not too far away from him was a young lady in her twenties.
"Mu shi!"
Upon entering the room, the crowd clasped their fists respectfully.
Mu shi was a Seven Star Master Teacher, a figure who stood at the pinnacle of the Master Teacher Continent. Even they didn't dare to show the slightest disrespect to him.
"Un. Allow me to make some introductions. This is Luo shi, a 6-star grandmaster teacher of mine. She is a junior of mine, and she wishes to be a substitute teacher here to temper herself. I'll have to trouble you to make the necessary arrangements for her!"
Mu shi stood up and gestured to the young lady beside him.
"Junior?"
Taken aback, the crowd quickly turned their gazes to the young lady, only to see her standing up and bowing deeply to the master teachers.
"Ruoxin pays respect to the elders!"
The young lady clasped her fist.
"6-star master teacher? She managed to reach 6-star at such a young age? "
Everyone was taken aback.
Lozosy seemed to be in her twenties, but she had already cleared the 6-star master teacher examination. Her background and standing were truly frightening!
It seemed like Mu shi was lying when he said that she was his junior.
It was difficult for a Seven Star Master Teacher Continent to groom a young 6-star master teacher in her twenties.
Most likely, she was a descendant of a Sage Clan, and she had specially come here to temper herself.
Only a Sage Clan could groom such a genius.
It wasn't as if such a thing had never happened before.
"Luo shi, you have already achieved such a feat at such a young age. How about this? I'll make the arrangements for you right now. May I know what you specialize in? Which school do you intend to join?"
The head of the Apothecary School asked with a smile.
