Chapter 1509: The Empire Alliance

"But..."

Dream Sword Saint was anxious.

If that Zhang Xuan really was their son, with such a huge disaster he had caused, wouldn't he be beyond saving?

"Don't worry, let's first find this Zhang Xuan... As long as we find him before he reaches the headquarters of the Master Teacher Academy, with our meager influence, there should still be room to salvage..."

Holding his wife's shoulder, Xing Sword Saint said.

"Mm!"

Dream Sword Saint nodded, once again radiating heroic spirit: "Indeed, if he is truly my son, even if the Master Teacher Academy headquarters wants to touch him, they must first step over my dead body!"

"Indeed!"

Smiling, Xing Sword Saint's lips curled: "We haven't fought side by side for a long time. It's time to stir things up and let the world know anew that no one can touch my son!"

Seeing the couple full of ambition, the Great Elder and Zhan Shi both twitched their mouths.

Does the destructive streak... really get passed down?

"The Master Teacher Academy headquarters has a teleportation array to the Ice Field Palace. Let's go!"

Ignoring their thoughts, Yang Shi waved his hand, about to leave, then suddenly thought of something and looked at Zhan Shi: "This Steward Sun, don't deal with him yet. Let me first clarify the specifics!"

This fellow was also a victim; better to keep him for now, perhaps he could be of greater use.

"Yes!" Zhan Shi nodded.

Seeing his agreement, Yang Shi said no more and returned with the others to the teleportation array. With a flash of light, they vanished from the spot.

...

"So this is the Empire Alliance?"

Looking at the majestic city before him, with towering buildings rising one after another, Zhang Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

In the mountain forest outside Dragon Abyss City, he had casually tamed a flying sacred beast, and before long, they arrived here.

Both had changed their appearances now. After passing inspections without incident, they smoothly entered the city.

"Teacher, where are we going now?"

Zhao Ya looked over.

Nourished by the Heavenly Dao true qi, her injuries had healed, and her complexion was much better than before, no longer so weak. However, she still had no power within her body, and her previous cultivation had vanished without a trace.

"Let's go check the Blacksmith Guild first..."

Zhang Xuan said.

To help her reforge her meridians, after much thought, only two places could do it: first, the Blacksmith Guild, and second, the Physician Guild.

He would go to the former first to inquire if there were any items that could be used to forge meridians. If there were, it would be easy.

If not, he would have to go to the Physician Guild to seek the answer.

The two walked toward the Blacksmith Guild. Before long, they saw a surge of people flowing and converging in one direction. Just as they were wondering, a clear voice rang out around them.

"All people of the Empire Alliance, please gather at the square before the Alliance Lord's Mansion..."

Clatter!

As the voice ended, they saw countless soldiers in armor, holding weapons, sealing off the area and directing the crowd forward.

"What happened?"

"I don't know. Probably the Alliance Lord has something to announce."

"It shouldn't be the Alliance Lord. Although the Alliance Lord of the Empire Alliance controls the entire alliance, he doesn't have the authority to gather the entire city at once. It's likely the Master Teacher Academy has something to announce."

"That's possible. Let's go take a look..."

Murmurs arose all around.

"Teacher..." Zhao Ya looked over.

"Don't be too conspicuous. Let's go too." Zhang Xuan nodded.

Since everyone was going, if they turned and left now, they would easily be scrutinized. It was better to go see what was happening.

"Mm!" Zhao Ya also realized this, nodded, and followed closely behind, walking forward.

The Empire Alliance had many experts. As they moved forward at the command, true qi surged, divine thoughts roiled, and the fortune of humanity soared into the sky, with boundless power.

"With the Master Teacher Academy guarding all directions, humanity is indeed growing stronger every day, changing every day."

Zhang Xuan couldn't help but sigh.

Although many major powers feared the Master Teacher Academy, it had to be said that wherever the Master Teacher Academy was, humanity grew stronger, and even if the alien spirit race existed, they dared not act rashly.

In the Empire Alliance, although the Alliance Mansion was the administrative unit, everyone knew that the final say still belonged to the Master Teacher Academy.

At the command of a master teacher, thousands followed; even a royal decree could be defied.

A teacher instructs all things, guides all directions, passes down traditions from generation to generation, truly selfless. It is precisely for this reason that later generations surpass their predecessors, growing stronger and stronger.

"Without Confucius born into the world, the ages would be like a long night."

Suddenly, he recalled a comment left by a former sage.

The master teacher system and its rules were all established by Confucius. Had he not set them up, no one knew what the state of humanity would be now.

Most likely, they would still be mired in the rule of the alien spirit race, in eternal darkness.

With his own strength, he changed a world—truly a sage.

"Originally, I thought that becoming a nine-star master teacher would remove the innate fetal poison in my body... but now..." He couldn't help but shake his head.

According to the information he had obtained earlier, becoming a nine-star master teacher could eliminate his innate fetal poison. But now, with his master teacher identity renounced, it was hard to say whether he could live past thirty.

But... he did not regret it.

As a teacher, if he couldn't even protect his own students, what use was it to become a nine-star master teacher?

"Teacher..."

As he was lost in thought, a voice called out beside him. Turning his head, he saw Zhao Ya looking at him with some concern.

"It's nothing..."

He smiled and shook his head, then looked up to see that they had followed the crowd to the square before the Alliance Lord's Mansion.

The square itself was not large, but at this moment, some expert had set up a special spatial formation around it, which actually accommodated the entire city's population without seeming crowded.

"It's similar to folded space, but relatively crude..."

Looking around, he recognized it as an application of spatial formations, but much simpler than folded space. It should have been left by a nine-star formation master.

"Everyone!"

Not long after they stood still, a clear voice rang out, reaching everyone's ears.

"The reason I have gathered you all here is that the Master Teacher Academy headquarters has something to announce... Now, let us welcome the master teacher from the headquarters!"

The crowd looked toward the center of the square and saw an old man in a master teacher robe floating in the air, his brows raised, exuding a powerful aura.

He was a half-step nine-star master teacher. Although not yet a nine-star, he was still one of the top experts in the Empire Alliance.

Swish!

Flipping his wrist, the old man took out a scroll. He gently pulled it, and light immediately shone into the sky, releasing a heavy sense of oppression.

"This is a master teacher official letter... It seems something is to be announced to the world."

Raising his eyebrows, Zhang Xuan recognized it.

A master teacher official letter was not usually issued lightly. He hadn't expected to witness it in person as soon as he arrived at the Empire Alliance.

And it was personally presented by a half-step nine-star master teacher. What exactly had happened?
