"Oh? What do you mean by that? "Zhang Xuan didn't care about his threat. Instead, he looked over with a smile.
"There are only so many resources in the academy every year, and there are only so many trials. Even the quota for part-time work isn't that easy to obtain! If you offend our Ashen Moon Association, we have the ability to make sure that you won't be able to get a single trial in a year. You won't be able to get any academic credits! "
The young man said.
As a large student organization, it was very easy for them to make life difficult for a group of freshmen.
"Unless …"
After threatening him, the young man continued, "Join our Ashen Moon Faction! As long as you joined, you would be protected, and no one would dare to cause trouble for you. There were also many trials that the society would take the initiative to apply for and lead everyone through. More importantly … if you join us now, we can give you a copy of the Faculty Information Manual. You won't have to buy it anymore. "
"There are so many benefits to joining the Ashen Moon Association? Then... what do we have to do? "Ruohuan gongzi couldn't help but ask.
There was no such thing as a free lunch in this world. The other party had given them so many benefits. If he didn't have a motive, they would not believe it even if they were beaten to death.
"It's simple. After becoming a member, you'll have to obey Senior Long Cangyue. You'll have to pay one point of membership fee every year. When you're free, you'll have to take care of the institute's business." The young man nodded.
"Pay membership fees? Take care of the business? "Everyone was dumbfounded.
Sure enough, it was just as he had guessed. In order to obtain benefits, one naturally had to pay the price.
Not to mention the fact that they did not have any credits, even if they did, it would be extremely difficult to earn them. It was a huge sum of money to hand over one every year.
At the same time, he was also shocked. If there were a hundred people in the association, didn't that mean that Long Cangyue could earn a hundred academic credits a year without doing anything?
It was no wonder that they wanted to establish such an association. They didn't hesitate to spend so much time to provide guidance.
As for business, it was obvious.
Learning how to circulate one's body, eating, drinking, defecating, and building up one's connections would require expenditure. Everyone here was a master teacher, and they had all kinds of supporting occupations. Forging pills and smithing could earn them some money.
Take the young man in front of him for example. If he made any profits from selling the Staff Information Manual, he would definitely have to hand it over to the higher-ups.
"That's right. Right now, you have two choices. You can either buy it or join the guild. Otherwise, you'll be in trouble in the future!" After explaining, the young man harrumphed.
"Zhang Shi …"
Ruohuan gongzi, Song Chao, and the others immediately turned their gazes over.
"Sorry, we won't buy it or join the guild!"
Zhang Xuan shook his head.
He was not interested at all.
Could it be more convenient than becoming the junior brother of one of the ten great elders? Since the latter had already rejected it, how could this one join?
"You have guts! However, I hope that after the apprenticeship ceremony ends, all of you will be able to find a backer. Otherwise, just wait for our Ashen Moon Society to find trouble! "
Seeing that the group before him had completely ignored him, the young man harrumphed furiously before flinging his sleeves and leaving.
"Zhang Shi, if they really cause trouble, what should we do?"
Song Chao and the others looked worried.
They didn't have Zhang Xuan's ability and backing. If they offended such a senior student organization, it would be very troublesome if they were to seek revenge.
"I should acknowledge them as my teacher first. Even if they are seniors, this is the Master Teacher Academy, so they won't dare to go overboard. If they really dare to cause trouble for me, I will look for School Head Mo and School Head Zhao."
Zhang Xuan waved his hand.
They were all master teachers, so even if the other party wanted to cause trouble for them, they should be within the rules. If they were to play by the rules with the other party … he would surely be able to crush them!
Putting aside a single faction, even if the Ten Great Master Teachers worked together, they would still be no match for him.
Hearing Zhang Xuan's promise, the crowd felt a little more reassured, and they continued walking toward the passageway.
Along the way, they met a few more factions, such as Shen Yue Faction, Demon Faction … They were all student organizations, and they were either inviting them to join or buying their intelligence.
Zhang Xuan casually touched a few books, but they were all from the Ashen Moon Society, and they were all about the same. Thus, he politely rejected all of them.
Seeing the freshmen foolishly charging into the public lecture without buying anything at all, the seniors who were selling intelligence couldn't help but feel pity for them.
Freshmen had to choose a teacher and join a faction. Otherwise, if they were to be isolated, they would face all kinds of trouble. Putting aside earning Academic Credits, they might not even be able to stay in the academy.
Paying no heed to these arrogant seniors, the group walked up to the passageway for the public lecture.
The passageway was filled with people, forming a long queue.
Lifting their gazes, they saw a teacher lecturing on a stage by the side. His voice was clear, and even though there were many people below, his words still resounded in their ears.
"The key to cultivation lies in one's heart. In the Consonant Spirit realm, one's soul and body are one. In order to temper one's soul, one must first temper one's heart …"
It was a middle-aged man in his forties, and his name and school were written on the stage.
He was a 6-star intermediate-tier teacher from the Apothecary School, and the content of his lecture was on the Consonant Spirit realm cultivation technique.
After listening to a few words, Zhang Xuan nodded his head in approval.
Even though the other party's lecture was far inferior to his, and there were many mistakes in it, he had to admit that the other party's lecture was an entirely new experience. If anyone else were to listen to this lecture, they would surely be enlightened and advance further in the Consonant Spirit realm.
But to Zhang Xuan, it was completely useless.
"This is a teacher from the Apothecary School. His lecture is rather detailed, and he is wealthy. As his student, buying pills from him is much cheaper than buying them elsewhere …"
Suppressing his voice, Zhang Xuan imparted the introduction of this teacher to Luo Huan and the others.
They had participated in the Master Teacher Tournament with Zhang Shi, and they knew that the other party was capable of reading the content without flipping through the books. Thus, they weren't too surprised by his words, and they quickly committed them to memory.
Since it was a public lecture, they would first listen to it once, and as for how they would choose, they would have to consider it carefully when they returned. In any case, they just had to acknowledge the other party as their teacher within three days, so there was no need for them to rush it.
"Let's continue forward!"
After listening to the lecture for a while longer, they gained a better understanding of the other party's capabilities, so they continued forward.
The next teacher was from the Apothecary School, and he was a master of the Way of Medicine.
"Even though your improvement might not be as fast as the teachers from the Apothecary School, there won't be any major problems with your body if you learn from him. As long as your foundation is firm, it will be more beneficial to your cultivation in the future!"
Zhang Xuan introduced.
Master teachers had their own supporting occupations, and these supporting occupations formed the core of the Ten Great Master Teacher Academies. As long as one chose one of these supporting occupations, they would have to place it at the top of the list of master teachers.
There were benefits to this as well. Just like what Zhang Xuan had said previously, pills would be cheaper if one were to enter the Apothecary School, making it easier for one to obtain them.
If one were to enter the Apothecary School, one would have to study one's body more thoroughly, thus placing more emphasis on one's foundation in one's cultivation...
The Blacksmith School focused on cultivating one's physical body; the Beast Tamer School focused on nurturing beast-type companions; the Painting School focused on cultivating one's mental fortitude...
In any case, each of the schools had their own strengths. Students could choose one based on their preferences and expertise, so there was no need to be too conflicted.
Zhang Xuan circled around the area once more, but the more he listened, the less interested he felt. Thus, he found a secluded area and stopped for a moment. Taking out an empty book, he began to copy down the information he had obtained from the various student factions.
"This is the information of the teachers in the public lecture. You all should circulate it among yourselves and find a teacher that is suitable for you!"
With the information compiled by the Library of Heaven's Path, the information was accurate and accurate. Thus, they wouldn't have to follow Zhang Xuan around to find a teacher.
"Un!"
Ruohuan gongzi and the others nodded their heads.
With this, they wouldn't have to trouble Zhang Shi anymore.
"Alright, you all can take a look at it yourselves. I will walk around as well!" After passing the book to the other party, Zhang Xuan stretched his back lazily. Just as he was about to head to the Terpsichore School or Demonic Tunist School to take a look, he suddenly caught sight of something, and his body jolted.
"Could it be... her?"
Amidst the crowd, he saw an elegant figure slowly walking forward.
It was a white-robed figure. Even though she was walking amidst the crowd, she didn't seem the slightest bit uneasy or uneasy. Instead, she exuded a sense of tranquility and serenity.
This feeling was exactly the same as the white-robed lady whom he had met in the forest of the Miryu Empire.
He had thought that it would be impossible for him to meet her ever again. Could this be... the white-robed lady before him?
Fearing that it might be his imagination playing tricks on him, Zhang Xuan took a closer look.
As the white-robed figure slowly walked forward, the crowd around her seemed to be pushed aside by some kind of unique force, creating a path for her. Yet, these people didn't seem to notice it at all.
"What incredible strength!"
Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes.
This was a kind of comprehension of space.
The crowd around him had clearly moved away from him, but it felt as though they were still standing on the spot. Even he was incapable of such a profound ability.
"Is that not the case?"
Zhang Xuan was a little dazed.
Initially, he felt that the white-robed lady wasn't too strong, which was why he had risked his life to save Zhang Xuan. But eventually, she managed to fuse her soul with her body perfectly, such that there were no flaws at all.
This ability had far surpassed his imagination.
From this, it could be seen that the white-robed lady had been concealing her strength.
"Flaws!"
Zhang Xuan was taken aback by what he saw.
"Could it be that she didn't use any battle techniques?"
Zhang Xuan thought that the white-robed lady must have used some sort of battle technique to manipulate space, so he used the Library of Heaven's Path to check her background. But to his astonishment, the Library of Heaven's Path didn't form anything at all.
In other words... the white-robed lady didn't use any battle techniques.
Otherwise, it was impossible for the Library of Heaven's Path to be unable to detect her!
So far, there was nothing that the Library of Heaven's Path couldn't detect.
Hu!
Perplexed, Zhang Xuan was just about to walk forward to take a look when the white-robed lady seemed to have sensed his gaze and turned around.
A beautiful face appeared in his line of sight.
Who else could it be other than the white-robed lady?
Even though the white-robed lady seemed to be wearing some kind of disguise, it couldn't fool Zhang Xuan's Eye of Insight. He could easily tell that she was the young lady who had been attacked by countless spirit beasts back in the mountain range.
Unable to contain the agitation in his heart, Zhang Xuan hurriedly walked up to Zhang Xuan and asked.
"You... Why are you here?"
The white-robed lady seemed to be searching for something, but upon hearing his voice, she realized that it was Zhang Xuan. Her eyes lit up, and a light smile reminiscent of the blossoming of a hundred flowers appeared on her lips.
