"Mine?" Zhang Xuan was taken aback. His hand that was holding the teacup trembled, causing the tea to spill out. "What do you mean mine?"
"Just now, I went to the merchant guild to look into the matter, and young master should know about it as well. I have bought a house before, so I am well-versed in such matters. It didn't take long for me to find the owner of the manor...
Sun Qiang couldn't believe what he was hearing either. "Perplexed, I asked Zhang Xuan about his occupation and identity, and the answer I received was that... he is a Grade 1 student of the Master Teacher Academy! Thus, I suspect that there might be someone who shares the same name as young master among the freshmen. If there isn't... it should be you! "
"This..."
Zhang Xuan blinked his eyes in bewilderment.
He had never been here before, and he didn't have the money to buy such a huge manor. How could it be his?
If it was in the past, he wouldn't have been able to confirm whether there was anyone who shared the same name as him among the freshmen. However, after the formation of the student faction yesterday, he had already compiled the name list of the freshmen into a book. Even so, there wasn't anyone who shared the same name as him.
What was going on?
"Have you looked into the matter? Who is the one who bought the manor? Has the owner of the manor appeared? "Zhang Xuan asked.
Since he was the only Grade 1 student, Zhang Xuan, there was no doubt that someone had impersonated him to buy the manor.
But... what was the motive behind doing so?
"I've looked into it, and it seems that the person who bought the manor has never appeared before. He only asked us to register the manor with this name, and he said that the owner would come and take over the manor once the renovation was done..." Sun Qiang was also perplexed.
The more he looked into it, the more perplexed he felt.
He had been intending to buy the manor, but he didn't manage to do so. When did it end up being registered under the young master's name?
"This..." Zhang Xuan was bewildered.
He had seen people giving the wrong money when buying things, but he had never heard of someone registering the wrong name when buying a manor.
"Luo Qiqi, is it you..."
Zhang Xuan couldn't help but turn around.
In Hongyuan City, the only one who was willing to do anything for him regardless of the cost was probably this student of his.
"How could it be me? Even if I wanted to buy the manor, I don't have that much money..."
Luo Qiqi shook her head.
"That's true!" Zhang Xuan smiled bitterly.
Considering how spacious the manor was, and its location was not too bad either, it should be worth at least several hundred high-tier spirit stones. To be able to fork out so many high-tier spirit stones at once … Even if his student had a bizarre background, it would still be difficult for him to fork out so many high-tier spirit stones.
"Then … could it be Yu Fei-er and the others?"
In Hongyuan City, Yu Fei-er, Xing Yuan, and the others were definitely capable of such a feat.
After all, one was the Sixth Princess, and the other was from a wealthy family.
"Fei-er, Xing Yuan, and the others have already undergone the Meridian and Marrow Cleansing, so they're currently cultivating in seclusion. They're trying to make use of this opportunity to push for a breakthrough to Perfect Harmonization realm, so they probably won't have the time to waste on such matters …"
Luo Qiqi shook his head.
If they had the time, they would have come to visit Zhang Shi a long time ago. They wouldn't have not shown up until now.
He didn't even have the time to visit, so how could he specially buy a house? Why did he go through so much trouble?
Besides, Yu Fei-er was her close friend, so there was no need for him to hide it from her.
"Who … who could it be?" Zhang Xuan was confused.
Naturally, Mo Gaoyuan, Elder Mi, and the others were even more unlikely.
As a 6-star master teacher, even if they wanted to befriend him, there were many ways for them to do so. It was impossible for them to specially buy a manor, renovate it, and write their name on it.
"Forget it for now. Since the other party has written my name on it, their identity will surely be exposed. Otherwise, wouldn't I have wasted my money?" Zhang Xuan shook his head.
Since the other party had done so, it was only a matter of time before they came looking for him. Otherwise, he would have wasted his money. He didn't believe that there would be such a foolish person who would be willing to throw away such a huge sum of money.
"Teacher, are we still going to enter the manor?"
Luo Qiqi asked.
"There's no need for that for now. Just register my name on it, and once the renovations are done, it shouldn't take long for the other party to come looking for us. At that time, we'll just enter openly and save ourselves some trouble!" Zhang Xuan waved his hands.
This was already his manor, so they could look for him whenever they wanted. There was no need for them to waste their time and effort sneaking in now.
"Un!" Luo Qiqi nodded.
"Sun Qiang, go back and find Wang Ying, Zheng Yang, and the others. There's no need for them to look for a place to stay for the time being. Pay more attention to this manor!" Zhang Xuan instructed.
"Yes, young master!" Sun Qiang nodded.
"Alright, let's return to the academy first!"
Knowing that he was the owner of the manor, there was no point in staying here any longer. After instructing Sun Qiang, he returned to the academy with Luo Qiqi and Hu Yaoyao.
As soon as he returned to his residence, Zhang Xuan immediately sat down cross-legged.
It took him four hours of rest before he felt his fatigue vanishing.
Raising his head, he saw that it was already close to midnight. The night sky was as dark as ink, dyeing the surroundings as dark as the bottom of a pot. The weather was a little gloomy, and there were no stars in sight.
"Since I have nothing to do, I should head to the Physician School to read some books!"
An idea popped up in Zhang Xuan's mind.
Since the sky was so dark, and he had nothing to do at the moment, he might as well head to the Physician School to read some books. If he succeeded, it would be much easier for him to treat Wei Ruyan.
"Time to draw my soul out!"
Without any hesitation, Zhang Xuan drew his Primordial Spirit out from his glabella, and with a slight jolt, he swiftly made his way over to the physician.
With Wei Ranxue's experience, Zhang Xuan knew that he had to be careful even with his soul. Thus, it took him nearly an hour before he finally arrived at the Physician School.
"The library of the Physician School is over there …"
As Zhang Xuan had been there once during the day, he had specially chosen the location. Thus, it didn't take long for him to arrive at the library.
The towering library exuded a unique aura that felt dignified and dignified.
Just like the Terpsichore Compendium Pavilion, it required one's academic credits and student token to enter. Thus, Zhang Xuan waited patiently outside.
The difference between the Physician School and the Terpsichore School was that the latter had fewer students, so there weren't many of them reading books. On the other hand, the Physician School was ranked fifth in the Master Teacher Academy, and it had several dozen thousand students. Every day, countless of them would enter and leave the library. As long as he waited patiently, there would surely be a chance.
As expected, not too long later, someone walked out from the library. Making use of this opportunity, Zhang Xuan entered the library.
As soon as he entered, he saw countless books.
"Let's begin!"
Zhang Xuan chuckled softly. Without wasting any time, he swept his gaze across the bookshelves, and in an instant, countless books appeared in his mind.
…
While Zhang Xuan returned to the academy, Sun Qiang also returned to his residence.
When night fell, he saw Wang Ying and the others returning dejectedly.
It was indeed difficult to find a suitable residence in the vicinity of the Master Teacher Academy. Otherwise, Sun Qiang wouldn't have been unable to find anything after so many days.
"Where's Young Master Zheng Yang? Isn't he with you? "
Just as Sun Qiang was about to tell the others that there was no need for them to continue searching, a deep frown suddenly appeared on his forehead.
Young Master's three students, Wang Ying and Liu Yang, had already returned, but there was still no sign of Zheng Yang.
"We don't know either. He left on his own after leaving earlier this morning. However, there's no need to rush. He should be back soon!"
Liu Yang said.
"Indeed. Zheng Yang is an astute person, and he has inherited our teacher's heritage as well. He should be fine!" Wang Ying nodded in agreement.
Of Zhang Shi's direct disciples, Yuan Tao was the one with the greatest adaptability, followed by Zheng Yang. It would already be a blessing if he didn't cause any trouble, so how could he possibly go missing?
Just as they were speaking, a figure suddenly walked in. Who else could it be other than Zheng Yang?
"Uncle Qiang!"
Walking up to Zhang Xuan, Zheng Yang's eyes lit up in excitement.
Seeing the other party's expression, Sun Qiang asked doubtfully, "You found a residence?"
"I didn't … It's just that … there's a matter that I would like to discuss with Uncle Qiang!" Zheng Yang scratched his head.
"Discuss with me? Speak, what's the matter? "Sun Qiang asked.
Zhang Xuan had instructed his students to listen to Sun Qiang's instructions, so Zheng Yang and the others addressed him as' Uncle Qiang '.
"It's like this. When I was out today, I met a fellow … who wanted to learn spearmanship from me. I would like to take him in as my student. Is it possible for him to stay here for a few days?"
Zheng Yang said awkwardly.
"Take in a student?" Sun Qiang widened his eyes in shock.
You are still a student, yet you want to take in a student?
"Indeed. That fellow's spearmanship is decent, and he has a good foundation in spearmanship. I just casually offered him a few pointers, and he was so excited that he insisted on acknowledging me as his teacher. He even offered me quite a sum as his tuition fee … I couldn't really turn him down …" Zheng Yang hesitated for a moment before replying.
Today, when he was out looking for a residence, he happened to meet a bully. In a fit of anger, he beat that bully up. After that, the young man came over and said that he wanted to learn spearmanship from him.
In the past half a year, he had been practicing diligently with Zhang Shi, and he had already reached an unfathomable level. When he heard that someone wanted to learn spearmanship from him, he couldn't help but offer a few pointers. He didn't expect that the young man would have such a high level of comprehension.
Even though his spearmanship was a little lacking, it was fortunate that he had a good foundation in spearmanship. Thus, he immediately thought of taking in a student.
However … he was still a student at the moment. If he wanted to take in a student, he should discuss it with his teacher first.
Since his teacher wasn't around, he had to seek Uncle Qiang's opinion first.
"You gave him tuition fee? How much did you give him? "Sun Qiang asked.
"It's all in here!"
Zheng Yang passed a storage ring over.
Sun Qiang took the storage ring doubtfully. Driving his zhenqi, he took a look inside and his eyes widened in shock. "Twenty thousand middle-tier spirit stones and so many pills … That's the tuition fee for him to acknowledge you as his teacher?"
There was a huge pile of items in the storage ring. There were actually twenty thousand middle-tier spirit stones and innumerable pills.
In total, they were worth no less than fifty thousand middle-tier spirit stones …
So much money for him to learn spearmanship from him?
Where did this Zheng Yang find such a spendthrift?
"Indeed, I would like to take him in … but I'm afraid that teacher won't agree to it. I hope that Uncle Qiang can help me put in a few good words for me …" Zheng Yang said sheepishly.
"Don't worry. With so much money, the young master will surely agree to it. Besides, as a master teacher, the young master hopes to bring his heritage to greater heights. There's no need to worry!"
Sun Qiang chuckled.
After interacting with the young master for such a long time, how could he not understand his young master's personality?
As long as he paid the tuition fee … Putting aside taking in a single disciple, even if there were eight of them, he wouldn't say anything.
