Chapter 1136: Someone from the Spirit Awakener Headquarters Arrives

The Xuanxuan Society and Wang Ying and the others were suddenly enlightened.

They looked at Zhang Xuan again, filled with admiration.

A teacher is a teacher, a dean is a dean!

They had tricked two or three hundred war masters, spending who knows how much effort and using every means possible to accomplish it, but he simply went straight to the War Master Hall headquarters and accepted all the war masters as his students...

Whether in vision or approach, he was far superior to them...

Seeing everyone full of admiration, Zhang Xuan's face turned green.

Just as he was about to scold them, this happened... The words stuck in his throat, unable to come out.

At this moment, he also felt breathless, fully experiencing the heartache of Hall Master Xing.

"No need to be polite. Don't you want to become stronger in combat? This is the Xuanxuan Society I founded. You can exchange ideas..."

Waving his hand, Zhang Xuan said.

"Yes!"

The many war masters nodded.

"Interact well with them, learn more from the friends of the War Master Hall! Although you may surpass them in combat awareness and combat power, you are far inferior in martial techniques, fist techniques, palm techniques, body techniques... and even mental state. You still need more effort!"

Zhang Xuan instructed.

For the members of the Xuanxuan Society, he mainly taught combat awareness. In this regard, the War Master Hall members were certainly no match, but in terms of fundamentals and the power of various body parts, the former were no match.

The foundation of Hongyuan Academy was still too weak. Compared to a behemoth like the War Master Hall, it lagged far behind in every aspect.

"Are you the people from the Xuanxuan Society? I heard Xiao Qin and others have already joined you. Are you still recruiting?"

"If the hall masters hadn't been so strict these days, we would have gone over long ago!"

"I heard you are very strong at the same level? Interested in a match with me?"

"I really want to see how you fight..."

...

The many war masters gathered with the members of the Xuanxuan Society.

Even if the news about Xiao Qin and the five hall masters was tightly sealed, everyone knew something about it. They had long been curious about this organization from a first-class empire.

Now that they knew it was taught by Teacher Sun, they were even more excited.

Soon, matches were arranged.

Xiao Qin was the first to step up, thoroughly defeating his peers of the same strength from the War Master Hall.

Those who had previously been far superior could not last three moves before him now.

Even though Zhang Xuan had not personally taught them, Wang Ying and the others had grasped the essence and explained it carefully, which greatly benefited them.

Moreover, they were themselves combat geniuses. Although three days was not long, it allowed their strength to make significant progress, more than doubling compared to before.

"We are willing to join the Xuanxuan Society. Please teach us..."

Seeing their companions improve so quickly, and the many war masters who had joined the Xuanxuan Society undergoing earth-shaking changes, everyone could no longer hold back.

"Alas, the War Master Hall of Qingyuan Empire, established for tens of thousands of years, has been ruined in my hands..."

Seeing the scene before him, Hall Master Xing knew he could no longer dissuade them. He looked as if he had lost his parents, his heart aching unbearably.

As the hall master, not only had he failed to expand the War Master Hall, but he had also let it join an organization from a first-class empire... Even if he had mentally prepared himself, it was still hard to accept.

"Hall Master, there's no need to be disheartened. This is not bad for us; on the contrary, it's a good thing!"

Feng Xun approached at some point.

For the past three days, he had been in seclusion, waiting to showcase his prowess at the exchange meeting. He was shocked to see this scene upon coming out.

However, recalling the various wonders of this Teacher Zhang, he suddenly understood and felt a sense of relief.

Although he didn't know about the matter of becoming a saint, the many events at Qiuwu Palace were still vivid in his mind. Following such a renowned teacher, their War Master Hall would definitely develop faster and faster, surpassing other halls of the same level—it was only a matter of time.

"Good thing?"

Hall Master Xing and Hall Master Liao looked over.

"Yes, that Zheng Yang who Zhuo Qingfeng took to participate in the War Son assessment is precisely a direct disciple of Teacher Zhang Xuan..."

Feng Xun nodded, excitement in his eyes: "If he succeeds in the War Son assessment, he will become the hall master of the War Master Hall in the future... a position of high status across the entire continent! Moreover, he... is also a member of the Xuanxuan Society!"

"This..." Hall Master Xing and the others were stunned.

They hadn't thought about this point before.

"Even if he doesn't become a War Son, being able to participate in the selection shows his combat strength. At the very least, he will become an elder in the future... With him around, even if our War Master Hall joins the Xuanxuan Society, who would dare to mock us?"

Feng Xun continued.

Hall Master Xing and the others fell silent.

Thinking about it, it was indeed so.

On the Master Teacher Continent, although seniority was valued, the one who achieved mastery was the teacher.

Regardless of age, as long as one was stronger and far surpassed you in combat, they were worthy of being your teacher. This would not be ridiculed but respected.

Even Confucius had once taken many people weaker than himself as teachers!

Taking a weaker person as a teacher is not shameful; what is shameful is... being incompetent oneself yet pretending to be very capable, having doubts but not asking!

Once that Zheng Yang became a War Son and received the most powerful inheritance of the War Master Hall, becoming hall master was only a matter of time. If the hall master was a member of the Xuanxuan Society, what shame was there in them joining?

Even if he didn't become hall master later but became an elder... it would still be a source of pride.

"I understand!"

Hall Master Xing finally breathed a sigh of relief, his knot untied. He looked at Zhang Xuan in the distance again, full of admiration.

A man only in his twenties had made their War Master Hall, which had stood for tens of thousands of years, willingly submit—truly terrifying.

"I'm afraid his teacher is also extraordinary!"

He sighed.

"Yes, Teacher Zhang's teacher is said to be named Yang Xuan, whose strength has reached an unfathomable level..." Feng Xun nodded.

"Yang Xuan?" Hall Master Xing frowned, startled: "Could it be..."

"What? Has the hall master heard of this master teacher?"

"I seem to recall my teacher mentioning... that at the Master Teacher Pavilion headquarters, there is a Teacher Yang, unparalleled through the ages, with strength reaching an astonishing level... But whether this Teacher Yang is actually named Yang Xuan is unknown!"

Hall Master Xing said.

"Your teacher? Are you referring to... the eight-star war master, known as the Crimson Fire Vajra, War Master Tong Qianqiu?" Hall Master Liao looked over.

Although the other had never mentioned his lineage, having been together for hundreds of years, they could still glean some information.

Crimson Fire Vajra Tong Qianqiu was a famous super war master in the Empire Alliance. With a pair of iron palms, he suppressed the eight directions. In one battle, he personally slaughtered tens of thousands of alien spirits, gaining great fame.

"Yes!" Hall Master Xing nodded.

"War Master Tong is extremely powerful. Since he said so, I'm afraid this Teacher Yang is indeed his teacher... No wonder he is so young yet possesses such strength and talent. With such a formidable master teacher guiding him, his future prospects are absolutely limitless!"

Feng Xun said.

Previously, he had entertained thoughts of competing with him, but now that idea had long disappeared.

Since he could never match up, why humiliate himself?

Only by knowing oneself can one go further; aiming too high will only lead to stagnation.

...

While they were resolving their inner conflicts, Zhang Xuan was also busy dealing with a mess.

The exchange between the two organizations was not so simple.

Finally, at everyone's request, he gave a lecture, leaving everyone excited and satisfied.

"These are the cultivation methods for fist techniques, palm techniques, body techniques, defense, and soul that I have summarized these days. Memorize them, cultivate them well, and pass them down when you have time!"

After the lecture, it was already dark. He stayed directly at the War Master Hall. Zhang Xuan called Wang Ying and Liu Yang over and instructed them.

These days, besides studying himself, he had also organized a set of cultivation techniques suitable for ordinary people from the books he had read. Since they were here, he directly taught them.

"Yes!"

Wang Ying and the others nodded, opened the books, quickly memorized the contents, and then clapped their hands to completely destroy them.

Once these secret manuals leaked, they would inevitably be coveted by others. Memorizing them and cultivating quietly, with the protection of the Master Teacher Pavilion and the War Master Hall, would be much safer.

"If there's anything you don't understand, ask now!"

Seeing that they had memorized them, Zhang Xuan looked over.

Wang Ying and the other immediately began asking questions.

An hour later, they fully understood the contents.

Relieved, Zhang Xuan was about to tell them to return to their quarters when Sun Qiang hurried over.

"Young master, President Ruan of the Spirit Awakener Guild requests an audience!"

"President Ruan? What does she want?"

Zhang Xuan frowned.

Could it be that the guild had been disobedient and secretly run away again...

That shouldn't be. They had signed a contract; they wouldn't do that, right?

"Let her in!"

Although he didn't understand what she wanted, Zhang Xuan still waved his hand.

Sun Qiang withdrew, and soon President Ruan entered with a middle-aged woman.

This woman appeared to be in her thirties, dressed plainly, but carried an air of nobility that commanded respect. Even before she approached, she exuded a strong pressure.

"Such strong strength... probably surpassing Hall Master Xing!"

His pupils contracted.

Even without using the Eye of Insight, he could tell that her strength was extraordinary, far greater than Hall Master Xing, who had just broken through.

That is to say, this woman was at least at the fifth level of the Saint Domain, the Out-of-Body realm!

When had the Spirit Awakener Guild produced such a powerful person?

"Teacher Sun... oh no, greetings, Teacher Zhang!"

While he was puzzled, President Ruan had already approached and spoke with a wry smile.

She had been present when this person was invited to the War Master Hall and knew the details well. She just hadn't expected that such a talented 'Spirit Awakener' was actually a dean from a first-class empire like Hongyuan.

"President Ruan, no need to be polite. What brings you here so late?"

After exchanging pleasantries, Zhang Xuan asked.

"To be honest, I reported the matter of Teacher Zhang's Spirit Awakener Guild to the headquarters, and they attached great importance to it... This is Elder Wei, specially sent by our headquarters!"

President Ruan introduced.

"Headquarters? The Spirit Awakener Headquarters?" Zhang Xuan was stunned.
