Chapter 1661: Nine-Star Master Teacher

It wasn't that Zhang Xuan was making excuses, but that he truly hadn't prepared anything.

Originally, coming here was to find the breakthrough method left by Master Teacher Kong and take the opportunity to break through to the Great Sage level. He hadn't expected that upon meeting Master Teacher Ren, he would be told about an assessment...

Anyone would be stunned.

"I've specifically looked into your abilities and talent, as well as your supplementary professions. You reached the Saint Son level even as an eight-star, so there's definitely no problem. It's just a matter of passing a few days earlier or later!"

Master Teacher Ren smiled.

He had witnessed this young man's abilities firsthand. Whether in teaching, personal cultivation, or any other aspect, he was impeccable. Becoming a nine-star master teacher was inevitable; this invitation was merely a formality!

"This... very well. How is the assessment conducted?"

Since the other party said so, Zhang Xuan had nothing to dwell on. He paused and looked over.

After all, the nine-star master teacher assessment was definitely necessary.

Since the other party was so enthusiastic, why not seize the day and take the assessment casually?

But... why did it feel so frivolous to assess for nine-star master teacher?

"The normal nine-star assessment requires establishing a new educational theory and proving it to be effective... You have taught Wang Ying, Zheng Yang, Zhao Ya, and others, which shows that even without the assessment, you are fully qualified!"

Master Teacher Ren explained.

A nine-star master teacher not only teaches well but also has their own educational philosophy. Although he didn't know what this young man's philosophy was, being able to teach so many outstanding students meant that even without assessment, it was clear he would pass.

"Then there's the requirement of a mental state of 27 and recommendations from three nine-star master teachers... All other conditions are met, except for strength!"

"Alright, Master Teacher Wang, suppress your cultivation to the initial stage of Indestructible Body and exchange a punch with Master Teacher Zhang!"

Master Teacher Ren instructed.

"Alright!"

An old man named Master Teacher Wang walked over. His body made a rustling sound as he suppressed his cultivation to the initial stage of Indestructible Body.

His original strength was only at the late stage of Indestructible Body, so suppressing his cultivation was not difficult. He smiled slightly and looked over: "Master Teacher Zhang, be careful. Since this is an assessment, I won't go easy on you!"

"Alright!"

Seeing that the other party was ready, Zhang Xuan didn't bother to hide his strength and threw a punch.

Master Teacher Wang also let out a loud shout and threw a punch.

Bang! Whoosh! Ah!

Master Teacher Wang had vanished without a trace.

"This..."

All the master teachers in the hall raised their eyebrows.

Was this really Saint Realm Ninth Layer?

How did it feel like even they couldn't withstand it?

"Master Teacher Wang is no match. Although his cultivation hasn't broken through to Great Sage, his strength is sufficient... Master Teacher Liu, go prepare the nine-star master teacher badge. From today onward, Master Teacher Zhang is a nine-star master teacher..."

Master Teacher Ren nodded with a smile.

"That's it?"

Zhang Xuan was speechless.

Wasn't this too fast?

If he hadn't known that this was the headquarters of the Master Teacher Pavilion and that the person before him was the acting pavilion master, he would have thought he was at a vegetable market buying radishes.

Or that he had encountered a swindler.

He had been in the hall for less than two minutes, casually sent someone flying, and became a nine-star master teacher...

It seemed that back when he assessed for one-star, it wasn't this easy.

It seemed that in the future, if he couldn't pass the one-star master teacher assessment, he could consider coming here to assess for nine-star...

"Now that you are a nine-star master teacher, you are qualified to attend this meeting..."

Ignoring his speechlessness, Master Teacher Ren's expression turned slightly solemn.

Seeing that they were about to have a meeting, Luo Ruoxi nodded slightly: "I'll wait outside for you..."

With that, she left the room.

"What meeting? So urgent?"

Seeing the girl leave, Zhang Xuan didn't stop her but looked at Ren Qingyuan with confusion.

Clearly, he had also figured out that the other party had passed him so quickly, even giving a frivolous impression, just so he could attend the meeting.

"It's the Spirit Tribe... a full-scale outbreak!"

With a solemn expression, Ren Qingyuan had lost his earlier demeanor and was frowning deeply.

"Full-scale outbreak?"

Startled, Zhang Xuan saw a nine-star master teacher he had met before walk to the wall and point at a map.

It depicted the overall scope of the Master Teacher Continent, densely covered with red dots.

"There are a total of 108 large underground cavern exits across the continent. Now, disturbances are occurring simultaneously, with Spirit Tribe members attacking. The War Master Hall and Master Teacher Hall are already struggling to hold..."

The nine-star master teacher said.

"108 underground cavern exits?" Zhang Xuan was taken aback, then horrified.

He had known that there must be many underground cavern exits, but he hadn't expected so many.

If they all erupted at once, even the Master Teacher Pavilion, which governed the world, would find it difficult to contend.

"What exactly is going on?" He couldn't help but ask.

"I'm not entirely sure either. It started a few days ago. The Spirit Tribe, for some unknown reason, launched a large-scale assault on the War Master Hall and Master Teacher Hall positions at the underground caverns. Many seals have been destroyed... and many master teachers have been injured."

Master Teacher Ren spoke.

"Has this scale of battle occurred before?"

Zhang Xuan couldn't help asking.

"There have been battles before, but never on such a large scale simultaneously..." Master Teacher Ren shook his head. "The Master Teacher Pavilion has sent out almost all cultivators below nine-star, but it's still a drop in the bucket. If we can't hold on... within ten days, the seals will be completely broken, and the Spirit Tribe will all invade the continent..."

"Ten days?"

Zhang Xuan clenched his fists.

He hadn't expected the time to be so urgent.

What had happened to the Spirit Tribe to suddenly go mad?

Could it be...

Unable to hold back, he raised his eyebrows: "Is it that the Confucius Temple has undergone changes and is about to open?"

Apart from this reason, he couldn't think of anything else that would make the Spirit Tribe so frenzied and willing to sacrifice so much.

"The space around the Confucius Temple is now increasingly turbulent and could open at any time. Most master teachers at the nine-star level have to go and guard it, preventing the Spirit Tribe experts who have infiltrated from succeeding! So, we really can't spare anyone to suppress the 108 underground cavern entrances... Therefore, we are discussing whether we can ask the Zhang, Luo, and Jiang families, as well as the Icefield Palace, Poison Hall, and other top-tier forces to send people to help suppress them together?"

Master Teacher Ren looked over, his gaze full of hope: "All for the sake of humanity..."

"This..."

Zhang Xuan was stunned, finally understanding why his nine-star master teacher assessment had been so frivolous.

Becoming a nine-star master teacher meant being a member of the Master Teacher Pavilion. With the continent in turmoil and humanity facing possible annihilation, he had an inescapable responsibility!

Clearly, the other party knew he was now the head of three clans and wanted to forcibly pull him onto their side.

After all, the three great families, the Icefield Palace, the Poison Hall... together, they formed a superpower that could influence the entire continent.

Even the Master Teacher Pavilion dared not underestimate them.

Otherwise, back in the Empire Alliance, they wouldn't have been so constrained.

"For the sake of humanity, it is naturally my duty!" Without pondering too long, Zhang Xuan's expression turned solemn, and he nodded immediately.
