Hearing the voice, Zhang Xuan subconsciously turned his head around, and what he saw left him stunned.
It was none other than Zheng Yang, Wang Ying, and the others.
Weren't these fellows supposed to be cultivating outside the academy? When did they come here?
It was one thing for them to come here, but how in the world did they manage to sneak in without being captured?
While Zhang Xuan was perplexed, Lu Feng also did not expect the three of them to ask such a question. He was taken aback for a moment before chuckling softly, "I have heard from School Head Xu that the three of you possess a deep understanding of battle techniques and cultivation despite your young age. From simplicity to complexity, you are all geniuses among geniuses. The fact that you were able to catch Principal Xu's eye speaks volumes of your capabilities!
"Since you are the guest elders of the Martial Arts School, as well as the elders of the Master Teacher Academy, naturally, you are of the same generation as me!"
The standing of a guest elder was even higher than that of an ordinary elder.
Even though Lu Feng was the principal of the Martial Arts School, he was only an elder. In other words, even if there was an age gap between them, they were still of the same generation.
"It's good that we are of the same generation!"
Zheng Yang and the others nodded. Turning to Zhang Xuan, they walked up to him and kneeled down. "Student Zheng Yang (Wang Ying, Liu Yang) pays respect to teacher!"
"Ah?"
"The three guest elders of the Martial Arts School are actually … students of Zhang Xuan, Zhang Shi?"
"Zhang Shi's students are of the same generation as School Head Lu Feng? Doesn't that mean that School Head Lu is a generation lower than him?"
"What in the world is going on?"
…
This time, not only were the seniors stunned, the teachers, elders, and school heads of the academy also froze on the spot.
Many people knew that the Martial Arts School was hiring guest elders, and quite a few of them had attended the lecture as well. Even though the three of them were still young, their deep understanding of cultivation left everyone in awe.
They were indeed qualified to be appointed as guest elders.
They had thought that the person who had such a deep understanding of cultivation would be the heritage of some reclusive expert, but who could have thought that … his teacher was actually Zhang Xuan!
He was still a freshman, and yet, his student had become an elder of the academy …
What in the world was going on?
Everyone else was astonished. School Head Lu Feng was truly as his name implied — he was on the verge of going mad.
It was just a moment ago that he had arrogantly declared that if his seniority was higher, he could teach him a lesson as he pleased. But in the end … these three people suddenly popped out of nowhere.
According to the words of the elders, since Zhang Xuan was the teacher of the guest elder, shouldn't they address him as … uncle?
Lu Feng's face darkened, and he felt a heavy pressure pressing down on his chest.
What was going on?
If only he had known that this would happen, he wouldn't have said that the three of them were of the same generation as him... But now, he had shot himself in the foot, and it would be difficult for him to reject them.
"Zhang Xuan might be your teacher, but he's still a student of the academy …" Zhang Xuan's face was bruised.
"Since he's a student, he must have a teacher. If that's the case, I would like to ask School Head Lu, who did my teacher acknowledge as his teacher?" Zheng Yang asked.
Lu Feng's face stiffened.
Zhang Xuan had caused a huge uproar recently. Naturally, he had heard about it as well. Zhang Xuan had fainted the moment he arrived at the academy, and he had not acknowledged Zhang Xuan as his teacher at all!
In other words … even though he had entered the academy, he had not acknowledged a master.
"He didn't …" With an awful complexion, Lu Feng shook his head.
"Then, do you have a student token of my teacher?" Zheng Yang asked.
Lu Feng fell silent once more.
A student token could only be obtained after one had acknowledged a teacher. While students who had yet to acknowledge a teacher were allowed to listen to the lectures of the academy, it would be troublesome to apply for a student token. At the very least, it would take one to twenty days after the start of the semester.
It had only been five to six days since the start of the semester … Naturally, it was impossible for him to apply for a student token!
"Since he doesn't have a student token and has yet to acknowledge a teacher, why would he say that he is a student of the Master Teacher Academy? Do you have any proof? "Zheng Yang asked.
Lu Feng was rendered speechless.
The other party didn't even have a student token or a teacher. In other words, he didn't even have a student token … Without a student token, how could he be considered a student?
If the other party wasn't a student, he was the teacher of a guest elder, and his seniority was even higher than Lu Feng's. If Lu Feng dared to stop him, that would be an insult to his elders!
"Even though he doesn't have a student token, he is residing in the academy and even established a faction …"
This fellow had only been in the academy for less than six days, but he had already wrecked two buildings in the academy. Yet, he was telling me that he wasn't a student … What the heck was he up to?
If he wasn't a student, I would have beaten him up long ago. How could I allow him to do as he pleased?
"Alright, Nephew Lu Feng, I am residing in the academy under School Head Mo's token, and I am establishing a faction due to the support of countless freshmen. There is no need for you to feel conflicted over this matter!"
Zhang Xuan said. "I know that you are doing this for the sake of the academy, so I don't blame you for stopping me. However, You Xu, even if you lose the duel, I will still be taking him away. As a junior, there is no need for you to argue with me! "
"Nephew …?"
Hearing the other party's words, School Head Lu Feng nearly fainted on the spot.
Since I am giving you a way out, why don't you take it?
If you were the principal of the academy, wouldn't you be teaching the world?
"School Head Zheng, School Head Wang, and the others are actually … Zhang Shi's students?"
"From the looks of it, they are his direct disciples …"
Zhao Bingxu, School Head Mo, and the others were dumbfounded.
They thought that with School Head Lu Feng's intervention, You Xu would surely be saved. Never in their dreams did they expect three guest elders to appear instead!
What was even more ridiculous was that Zhang Xuan actually addressed School Head Lu Feng as nephew … If that was the case, didn't that mean that they were his juniors as well?
"Don't try to talk about seniority with me here … No matter what, you are only a 4-star master teacher. No matter what you say, you won't be able to take him away today …"
Knowing that he would be dragged into a ditch if he were to continue speaking, Lu Feng harrumphed coldly.
Due to the difference in constitution and talent of every cultivator, it was natural for them to choose different teachers. If that was the case, there would be teachers everywhere.
"Alright, School Head Lu, as a master teacher and the stand-in principal of the academy, why are you pestering me here and there?"
Before School Head Lu could finish his words, an impassive voice sounded.
Lifting his head, he saw a figure as light as an orchid descending from the sky.
Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.
It was none other than the beautiful teacher whom he had fallen in love with at first glance, Lozosy.
"Luo shi!"
Seeing that it was her, School Head Lu hurriedly turned around and clasped his fist. "This matter concerns the dignity of the Master Teacher Academy. If we allow an outsider to take away the vice principal of the academy, how are we going to answer to Mingshi Tang in the future?"
Lozosy frowned. Waving her hands, she said, "Mu Yuan will tell you how to answer to Mingshi Tang. There's no need for you to worry about it."
"This … Yes!"
With an awful complexion, School Head Lu nodded.
Even though Luo shi was young, there was a good chance that she was from the Luo Clan, a Sage Clan. Even Mu Yuan and Mu shi treated her with the utmost respect, so School Head Lu didn't dare to say anything.
Seeing that Lu Feng had fallen silent, Lozosy turned to Zhang Xuan and asked, "Have you … comprehended the Eye of Insight?"
Not expecting her to ask such a question, Zhang Xuan was taken aback for a moment before replying honestly, "You can say that!"
I used it during the Life-and-Death Physician Duel with You Xu, so I should have been discovered then.
"The Eye of Insight that only 6-star master teachers are able to comprehend?"
"It's said that even the geniuses of Sage Clans are unable to comprehend it, and yet, Zhang Shi possesses it?"
"With such talent, as long as he doesn't die, he will become an 8-star master teacher at the very least …"
"Indeed. Of the ten geniuses who have comprehended the Eye of Insight in history, six of them reached Nine Stars, two of them died, and one of them was severely injured, causing his cultivation to stagnate. Nevertheless, he still managed to reach 8-star. The last one went missing after taking the Seven Star examination … Rumor has it that in a battle with the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, he unleashed the might of a Nine Stars master teacher before his death. As he failed Mingshi Tang's examination, no one knows what happened to him! However, there is one thing that is certain — as long as one comprehended the Eye of Insight, his future achievements will definitely not be lower than 8-star! "
"Fearsome …"
Hearing Zhang Xuan admit to it, a huge commotion broke out beneath the stage.
Even though the Eye of Insight was said to be a talent that could be awakened by 6-star master teachers, there were very few people who were able to awaken it.
Even the records of Mingshi Tang could be counted on one's fingers.
Yet, Zhang Xuan had actually comprehended the Eye of Insight … It was no wonder his smithing, terpsichorean arts, and Way of Medicine were able to display extraordinary prowess.
Even among Sage Clans, it was rare to see such a talent.
"Eye of Insight?"
School Head Lu Feng's body swayed in astonishment.
Even the seniors beneath the stage knew how powerful the Eye of Insight was, so how could he not know?
It could be said that Zhang Xuan's future achievements were limitless.
Was it really worth it to offend such a genius for the sake of You Xu?
It was no wonder why Luo shi would stand up for him. With such a talent, even Sage Clans would have to befriend him, not daring to offend him.
"I knew it!"
Nodding, Lozosy leaped off the stage. Just as Zhang Xuan was perplexed as to why he stopped Lu Feng just to ask such a question, the young lady's voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"I'll look for you tonight!"
After saying those words, she dived into the crowd, and with a few twists, she disappeared from sight.
"Look for me?"
Zhang Xuan frowned.
With the Library of Heaven's Path in his possession, he was able to see through anyone. Yet, this young lady was completely bewildered.
"Forget it!"
Knowing that the other party would find out what she was up to tonight, Zhang Xuan decided not to think too much into it.
Since Lozosy had spoken, Lu Feng didn't try to stop him. Instead, he instructed Zheng Yang and the others to bring the 'poisoned' You Xu down from the stage.
Knowing that the fellow had caused even School Head Lu to suffer, the seniors beneath the stage quickly opened up a path for him.
Knowing that it would be difficult for the Master Teacher Academy to return to the Master Teacher Academy after this incident, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment.
Of the Ten Great Academies, he had only challenged the Blacksmith, Terpsichore, and Physician Academies. There were still seven more that he hadn't visited. It would be too much of a loss for him to leave just like that.
"It seems like I can only challenge the academies in the future …"
Without Academic Credits and a student token, one wouldn't be able to enter and leave the academy freely, and needless to say, take the examinations.
There was only one way to raise one's supporting occupation to 6-star, and that was to challenge the other academies!
For example, if one wished to take the apothecary examination, he could challenge the entire academy. As long as no one was a match for him, he would be able to obtain a 6-star emblem.
"I just want to take the examination peacefully. Why is it so difficult?"
Thinking about the chaos that would ensue if he were to challenge the other academies, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but shake his head.
To be honest, all he wanted was to be a student and study peacefully. Yet … the stand-in principal didn't allow it, stripping him of his right to be a student!
Alright then, I'll return to rest for a few days first. After which, I'll challenge the other academies one by one.
At the same time, I'll brush up on my supporting occupations in preparation for the 6-star master teacher examination.
Zhang Xuan thought as he walked out with widened strides. Not too far away, he suddenly saw a spear-wielding young man rushing over excitedly to block his path.
"I have finally achieved a breakthrough to the 10-dan of the Fallen Leaves Spear and achieved Spear-Man Union. Zhang Xuan, I challenge you to a duel. Do you dare to accept my challenge?"
The young man's spear trembled, and a deafening roar echoed in the air, carrying an indomitable aura.
The young man was none other than Xue Zhenyang.
After listening to Zheng Yang's lecture yesterday, he had been in seclusion, and just a moment ago, he had finally achieved a breakthrough.
Upon hearing that Zhang Xuan was in the area, he immediately rushed over.
Now that he had achieved a breakthrough in his spear art, he was determined to wipe away the humiliation he had suffered and restore the reputation of the True Helios Faction!
Pah!
Before Zhang Xuan could reply, Xue Zhenyang suddenly felt a tight slap on the back of his head.
Turning around, he saw Zheng Yang laoshi looking at him with a livid expression. With a displeased look, he bellowed, "Beast, hurry up and pay respect to grandteacher!"
