Explaining how to tame the Otherworldly Demons would take a lot of time and effort, and he might even have to reveal the existence of the Library of Heaven's Path as well. Thus, he decided to get 'Yang Xuan' to save the day.
Thus, he communicated telepathically with his doppelganger and had him disguise himself as "Yang Xuan".
Initially, he thought that it would be enough to intimidate the crowd. Never in his dreams did he expect that his act would be so exaggerated!
Looking at the ruins around him, Zhang Xuan held his forehead.
All he had to do was have his clone disguise himself to prove that he wasn't an Otherworldly Demon. Yet, that fellow actually destroyed the entire Elder Hall of the Master Teacher Academy …
If Zhang Xuan was not mistaken, the source of such a powerful aura was Vicious.
That fellow had once said that as long as he gave him the handwriting of Kong Shi, his aura would be purified, and it would no longer carry the bloodlust of the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe.
Most likely, the collapse of the Teacher Acknowledgement Hall was a deterrent force brought about by Kong Shi's personal handwriting. Even though the Kong Shi when he left those words had yet to reach his peak strength, he was still an existence that Kong Shi and the wills of the predecessors did not dare to stand against.
As for the acknowledgement of a Celestial Master Teacher, the soul of his clone originated from the same source as him, and he had also received the acknowledgement of the heavens. On top of that, he also had the assistance of Vicious, so it was not too difficult for him to achieve such an effect.
The final disappearance wasn't a teleportation. Rather, it was the Myriad Anthive Nest.
Putting it into the folded space was like entering another space-time continuum, so there was no way to check it.
His actions were very smooth, but … wasn't it a little too much to cause such a huge commotion?
His goal was just to create a small ruckus so that the other party wouldn't suspect him. But now … these people were a little fearful!
Just as Zhang Xuan was feeling conflicted over what he should do next, Mu shi suddenly stepped forward, clasped his fist, and bowed deeply. "Senior Uncle!"
Recovering from his depression, Zhang Xuan could only nod, "No need to be so polite!"
Previously, he had pretended to be 'Yang Xuan' and claimed to be his grandteacher, so there was no problem with the other party addressing him as such.
"Martial Uncle?"
Lu Feng's lips twitched, and he nearly fainted on the spot.
Mu shi was a Seven Star master teacher, a generation younger than him. Yet, the other party addressed Zhang Xuan as Senior Uncle … Didn't that mean that he had lowered his seniority, becoming Zhang Xuan's grandstudent?
Just now, it was still my nephew …
When he spoke again, he had already become a virtuous grandson …
What was going on?
Dong Xin's face darkened as well.
Previously, he had told Long Cangyue that he would not make things difficult for Zhang Xuan, and that he would become a great-grandstudent instead …
Back then, he didn't think much of it, thinking that it was impossible. But now, it was obvious …
Her teacher, Lu Feng, had become a granddisciple. If she wasn't a great-grandson, what else could she be?
In the Master Teacher Academy, Hu Yaoyao was the first one to challenge the Four Great Student Factions.
Xue Zhenyang was the second to become Zhang Xuan's grandstudent.
He was the third to cause trouble … and he became a great-grandson!
Tears flowed uncontrollably from his eyes. If only he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have gone to such trouble. Now that things have turned out this way … he would probably have to address Hu Yaoyao as grandteacher in the future …
"This …"
Hearing Mu shi address him as Senior Uncle, the faces of Mo Gaoyuan and the others reddened in embarrassment.
"Have I been cleared of my wrongs? Surely you won't suspect me of being an Otherworldly Demon anymore, right? "
Paying no heed to the gazes of the crowd, Zhang Xuan turned his gaze to Mu shi.
"Of course not!"
Mu shi hurriedly nodded.
You are Yang shi's student, and Yang shi is a Celestial Master Teacher, so it's impossible for you to be an Otherworldly Demon.
The other master teachers also hurriedly nodded in agreement.
"Since you aren't an Otherworldly Demon, there's nothing for you to interrogate me about. Can I leave now?" Zhang Xuan asked.
"Of course!" Mu shi nodded.
"Good …" Zhang Xuan nodded.
Given Lu Feng's current state, even if he didn't make a move, he would still be punished. As a grandfather, there was no need for him to be petty with his grandson.
If he were to continue harping on Lu Feng, the effect that his clone had painstakingly put on would surely be deducted.
In any case, even if Zhang Xuan didn't go after the other party, the other school heads wouldn't let him off either. Since that was the case, he might as well give them some space to act.
Just as Zhang Xuan was about to leave, Elder Mi suddenly stepped forward and blocked his path. "Zhang Shi, wait a moment!"
"What is it?" Zhang Xuan asked.
He had a very good impression of Elder Mi.
Even before 'Yang shi' appeared, the other party had been speaking up for him.
"It's like this. Mu shi once said that whoever finds Senior Byzantium Helios will become the next principal. Since you have found Senior Byzantium Helios and tamed him, I propose that you become the next principal of the Master Teacher Academy!"
After explaining the matter, Elder Mi scanned the crowd and asked, "May I know what your thoughts are?"
Given how chaotic the Master Teacher Academy was, there needed to be someone to take charge, and Zhang Xuan was definitely the most suitable candidate.
His strength might be lacking, but in terms of identity and understanding of the other occupations, he was worthy of the position!
Not to mention, given that he had tamed Senior Byzantium Helios, who would dare to oppose him?
"Indeed, I have the same thoughts as well!" Zhao Bingxu nodded.
"I have no objections to Zhang Shi becoming the next principal!" Wei Ranxue replied.
"I agree!" Jiang Qingqin nodded.
"I agree as well!"
Xu Changqing of the Martial Arts School hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.
Wang Ying and the others were guest elders of their respective schools. If their teacher were to become the next principal, he would surely devote his attention to imparting knowledge to them.
In the blink of an eye, half of the Ten Great Master Teacher Academies had already agreed to the matter.
"Senior Uncle is a student of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy, and he has fulfilled many conditions as well. If he were to become the next principal, it would be a win-win situation!"
Mu shi's eyes lit up, and he nodded in agreement. "I agree with this suggestion!"
The reason why he had come down from the headquarters was to appoint a new principal.
Even though this Senior Uncle of his was young and his cultivation was lacking, he had a powerful background!
On top of that, he possessed exceptional talent. In just a few years, he would be able to lead the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy to greater heights.
"What about the rest of you?"
Hearing Mu shi's words, Elder Mi turned to the heads of the other five academies.
"This …" Lu Feng and Chen Chengxun glanced at one another, and tears welled up in their eyes.
"Since Mu shi has agreed to it, I have nothing to say!"
The head of the Painter School said.
"I agree as well!" The head of the Celestial Designer School nodded.
"I agree with them as well!" The head of the Physician School, Chung Ting-chun, agreed.
"Alright, we agree as well!"
Not too long later, Lu Feng and Chen Chengxun finally nodded in agreement.
Eight of the Ten Great Master Teachers had already agreed to the matter, and any further objections would only incur the disdain of the others.
Hearing that all of the school heads had agreed to the matter, Elder Mi was just about to welcome Zhang Xuan when a voice suddenly sounded in the air.
"To become the principal of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy, one has to be at least a 6-star master teacher, right? Zhang Shi's cultivation is still a little lacking, so I disagree …" Jin Yuan Ding said.
It was the Saint artifact of the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy, and its standing was even higher than that of the principal.
"Elder Jin Yuan, even though Zhang Shi isn't a 6-star master teacher yet, given his talent, it shouldn't be long before he succeeds …"
Elder Mi said.
The crowd nodded in agreement.
They had witnessed the young man's incredible prowess with their own eyes. If even he couldn't become a 6-star master teacher, there was no way anyone else could.
"So what if he succeeds in the future? Have you all forgotten about the selection three months from now? "Jin Yuan Ding said.
"Three months from now?"
Everyone frowned.
"It seems like you all have forgotten about it … The centennial 'Combat Master Hall Selection' will be held three months from now!" Jin Yuan Ding said.
"Combat Master Hall? Indeed … it has been a century! "
"The Combat Master Hall Selection is held once every century in Qingyuan Conferred Empire. I wasn't the principal of the Qingyuan Conferred Empire back then, so I don't really remember it that well.
"Once the selection begins, the four academies under Qingyuan Conferred Empire will be here. It will be a grand event that only happens once every century!
"We can wait for Zhang Shi to become a 6-star master teacher, but if he still hasn't reached that level by then, the Combat Master Hall and the other three academies will be here as well … We won't stand a chance against them!"
…
The crowd fell silent.
"Combat Master Hall Selection?" Zhang Xuan was perplexed.
He wouldn't be staying in Hongyuan Empire for too long, so it didn't matter to him whether he was the principal or not. However, judging from the tone of the crowd, it seemed like they were fearful of the Combat Master Hall Selection.
"I believe Zhang Shi should have heard of the combat master occupation before, right?"
Elder Mi asked.
Hearing those words, Zhang Xuan nodded.
Combat masters were the ones responsible for offense, and every single one of them possessed incredible fighting prowess.
Even though they were also master teachers, they didn't have to conduct lectures or take examinations on their supporting occupations. As long as they possessed superior fighting prowess, they would be able to clear the examination and be conferred the rank of a master teacher.
Every single one of these combat masters was capable of fighting opponents stronger than them. They were the experts of the world.
Back when he was in the Miryu Empire, he had been suspected to be a combat master.
"The Combat Master Hall is a branch of Mingshi Tang, and every single one of its master teachers is a powerful existence. Countless youths are proud to be a part of it. "
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was aware of the matter, Elder Mi explained, "Every century, the Combat Master Hall will conduct a selection among the academies, and the selection will be held three months from now!"
"Selection once every century?"
"That's right. During the selection, the four academies under Qingyuan Conferred Empire will gather together, but due to the limited number of slots, the principals of the academies will have to challenge one another to determine the allocation of slots for their respective academies …"
Elder Mi explained awkwardly. "If Zhang Shi were to become the principal, he would have to participate in the selection. I fear that … you might not be able to stand against him!"
In order to become the principal of a Combat Master Hall, one had to be at least a 6-star pinnacle master teacher, or perhaps even a Seven Star master teacher.
As long as Zhang Shi was given sufficient time, there was no doubt that he would be able to reach that level as well … but to challenge the selection three months from now was simply too difficult!
"I see!" Zhang Xuan nodded in realization.
It was no wonder everyone was worried. Three months was simply too short a period of time. Zhang Xuan was only at Ethereal Treading realm primary stage at the moment, and he was still a long way off from competing with the other principals.
"Actually, there's no need to worry. If I recall correctly, teacher should have already reached 6-star in five of his supporting occupations. As long as he takes one more examination, he will be able to take the 6-star master teacher examination. Three months should be sufficient!"
Jiang Qingqin interjected.
Currently, Zhang Shi had at least 6-star supporting occupations: blacksmith, physician, apothecary, terpsichorean, and demonic tunist.
Given his insane learning speed, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to take the 6-star master teacher examination!
