Chapter 1336: Luo Xuanqing Comes Calling

As the foremost family on the continent, the Zhang family had many juniors in the Saint Son Hall. As long as they weren't core members, injuring them was trivial and wouldn't attract attention. But to beat three in such a short time, even if they were only fringe core members, was somewhat provocative!

If he provoked other forces, he might be able to maneuver and mediate secretly, but the Zhang family... was a superpower not inferior to the Saint Son Hall. He was just an ordinary teacher, utterly unable to intercede.

If he truly provoked their anger and they sent more formidable juniors, he would have no choice but to endure.

Acting within the rules, even as the elite class's homeroom teacher, he had no recourse.

"Thank you for the guidance, Teacher Fei. I understand!"

Knowing the other meant well, Zhang Xuan cupped his fists.

"Good that you understand. You're a rogue cultivator, so you must pay even more attention to connections. Making more friends is always better than making more enemies. After all, not everyone is the Hall Master!"

Teacher Fei sighed.

"Hall Master?"

Zhang Xuan looked at him curiously.

What did this have to do with the Hall Master?

"The Saint Son Hall is subordinate to the Master Teacher Pavilion Headquarters, on par with the War Teacher Hall. You should know this, right!"

Seeing his expression, Teacher Fei asked.

"Mm!" Zhang Xuan nodded.

If one considered the Master Teacher Pavilion Headquarters as a massive state institution, local Master Teacher Pavilions were local administrations handling local affairs, while the War Teacher Hall was the military, managed uniformly by the headquarters, handling disputes and battles—when conflict arose, it was dispatched directly to crush everything.

As for the Saint Son Hall, it was like an imperial academy, responsible for educating the continent's most顶尖 talents and nurturing future generations for humanity.

Thus, simply comparing the War Teacher Hall and the Saint Son Hall, their statuses were roughly equal; both were subordinate units of the Master Teacher Pavilion Headquarters, in a parallel relationship.

"The Master Teacher Pavilion Headquarters stands aloof from worldly affairs. As long as there is no betrayal of humanity or actions harmful to the human race, it usually does not intervene. The Saint Son Hall, as a subordinate unit, naturally cannot get too close to various families and forces!" Teacher Fei explained.

Zhang Xuan suddenly understood.

It was like the War Teacher Hall, which basically had no connection with local authorities; otherwise, the Master Teacher Pavilion would certainly step in.

The same went for the Saint Son Hall. As a base for nurturing talent, it followed the teachings of Confucius—education for all without discrimination, allowing everyone to come and learn. But... because it taught too many forces, it could not use the opportunity to get close to any one party, or it would become biased and lose the doctrine of Confucius leading all humanity forward.

"The Hall Master, as the helmsman of the Saint Son Hall, in order to earn the admiration of these family descendants, usually crushes all opposition. For example, the previous Hall Master, during his two-thousand-year tenure, when he was young and a candidate, engaged in various challenges. Instances where he beat members of the Zhang, Luo, and Jiang families were numerous... But he was the Hall Master, unafraid of offending others and with no need to curry favor. On the contrary, doing so earned recognition from other forces... You are different. As an ordinary student, it's best to keep a low profile. The Saint Son Hall has countless geniuses. Although your experiences are impressive, compared to true geniuses, you still fall short!"

Teacher Fei advised earnestly.

This Zhang Xuan's experiences, though astonishing, if compared to the Luo family's little princess or the Zhang family's geniuses... still fell far short.

Especially the former, who was exceptionally brilliant. In less than two years at the Saint Son Hall, she had almost cleared all the trials. When asked why, her answer was... boredom!

Bored, so she went to challenge the trials. The difficult ones, she basically went from Guizi Alley to Jiazi Alley, not missing a single one, driving everyone to collapse.

The one before him, even if his talent was also formidable, could only be considered average—incomparable to such a freak.

"Yes, I understand!"

Zhang Xuan cupped his chin.

Previous Hall Masters all engaged in various challenges, disregarding other families and forces. It seemed he was still too low-key!

He had been at the Saint Son Hall for over a day and had only collapsed one puppet alley and beaten three Zhang family members... That was still too few!

Ah, no help for it. Who made his nature so excellent—low-key, reserved, unwilling to show off...

Such a personality was really worrying.

It seemed from now on, he needed to be more high-profile.

If Teacher Fei knew what he was thinking, he would probably faint on the spot.

Other Hall Masters, even if they were high-profile, had cultivated for a hundred or even several hundred years, built a solid foundation, and then soared to the sky with an irresistible momentum. But this guy... at the initial stage of the Out-of-Body realm, had been at the Saint Son Hall for less than a day...

And he had already caused so much trouble. Even the most formidable Hall Master had never done that!

"Good that you understand. Find an opportunity in the next couple of days to apologize to the Zhang family!"

Seeing that he had come around, Teacher Fei nodded with great relief.

Geniuses were not frightening; what was truly frightening was someone who could bend and stretch, and live long.

He had high hopes for this Zhang Xuan, and naturally did not want him to be crushed in spirit before he fully grew up, unable to progress further.

"Apologize?"

Zhang Xuan frowned.

"Yes, you both share the surname Zhang. Building good relations will greatly help your future prospects. Once you can secure a position as a guest elder in the Zhang family, with no worries about resource supply, your achievements will surely be limitless!"

Teacher Fei continued.

What rogue cultivators lacked most were resources. Whether spirit stones or cultivation techniques and manuals, as long as these two were complete, they could absolutely advance by leaps and bounds.

"Guest elder?"

"Mm, a major force like the Zhang family is already like a nation or sect. It not only includes family members but also countless experts from依附 forces. These people gather together to form such a behemoth!"

Teacher Fei sighed: "Of course, as a master teacher, your best choice is the Master Teacher Pavilion Headquarters. But... entering the headquarters requires many assessments and is even more difficult."

"Oh!"

Zhang Xuan understood.

Hearing him say this, the Zhang family, on the surface a clan-based force, was actually like an aircraft carrier, leading countless destroyers.

Many independent cultivators would build good relationships in the Saint Son Hall, hoping to enter it after graduation.

Of course, for renowned teachers, the headquarters of the Master Teacher Hall was the best choice, but this place was more difficult to enter, requiring the continent's most peak-level experts; even someone like Teacher Fei was not qualified to enter.

"Alright, I've said my piece. The Saint Son Hall values connections, and the Zhang family is an unavoidable hurdle on the continent. How you choose is up to you!"

After giving one more instruction, Teacher Fei was about to leave when he saw a student rushing over anxiously.

"Teacher Fei, it's bad... the Destroyer... is here!"

"The Destroyer? What is he here for?"

Teacher Fei was taken aback.

The Destroyer was a headache for the entire Saint Son Hall, fond of breaking through challenges and causing destruction, throwing everyone into chaos. Whoever heard he was coming felt a headache coming on.

But... this was the Benevolence Hall, a place for teaching, and moreover, the elite class... What was this guy doing here?

There was nothing here for him to destroy!

"I don't know... He's already inside!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a figure flashed, and a tall, handsome young man strode in. As soon as he arrived, he looked around, as if searching for someone.

"Luo Xuanqing, this is the elite class. If you want to cause trouble, please leave!"

Seeing him arrive, several figures immediately blocked his way. One of them raised an eyebrow and scolded coldly.

It was Zhang Xu, the most talented member of the Zhang family to enter the Saint Son Hall this time.

"Elite class? How impressive! As if I'm not one myself. When I entered this place, you were still playing in the gutter with mud. Get out of my way, don't delay my search!"

Luo Xuanqing waved his hand dismissively.

As members of the two great families on the continent, he and Zhang Xu had met before and were familiar with each other.

"You..."

Being humiliated in public, Zhang Xu's face turned green with anger.

"Scram!"

Not bothering to waste words, Luo Xuanqing waved his hand.

Boom!

A violent force surged forth. Before Zhang Xu could react, he was like a ball swept away by a flood, flying backward instantly. With a "thud," he hit the wall and hung there, unable to move no matter how he struggled.

Although he was also a genius, his age and strength were limited; he was no match for an old hand like Luo Xuanqing.

Seeing him act, the other Zhang family disciples were furious and charged over in unison. But before they could get close, Luo Xuanqing waved his hand.

Instantly, like swatting flies, they all landed on the wall, hanging there, struggling desperately.

Although he had subdued them, Luo Xuanqing was measured; he only hung them on the wall without causing serious harm.

"Luo Xuanqing, this is the elite class. There's nothing here to destroy. You should... leave!"

Unable to hold back any longer, Teacher Fei walked over.

Regardless, he was the homeroom teacher. If someone openly came to cause trouble and kept hanging people on the wall, it would be a loss of face if he didn't intervene.

"I'll leave once I find someone..."

Waving his hand, Luo Xuanqing's eyes landed behind Teacher Fei and suddenly lit up: "Zhang... Zhang Xuan, right? You're the one I'm looking for!"

"Looking for me?"

Zhang Xuan was stunned.

"Looking for Zhang Xuan?"

"This is great. Luo Xuanqing is always violent. This guy he's looking for is definitely going to get beaten!"

"He's someone who won't listen to reason. He only listens to his sister and ignores everyone else. This Zhang Xuan must have offended him, so he's here specifically to cause trouble..."

"Over the years, there have been few new or old students he hasn't beaten. Zhang Xuan is finished..."

...

Not only was he confused, but Zhang Zhuo and the others, who had just been beaten up, brightened at these words.

This Luo Xuanqing was an unreasonable person. They hadn't even been sought out, yet they were beaten and hung on the wall. This Zhang Xuan, without a doubt, would be beaten black and blue, worse than anyone!

"That's right, little brother, come with me. Big brother has something important to tell you!"

With a loud laugh, before Zhang Xuan could react, Luo Xuanqing put an arm around his neck and led him out.

"..." Zhang Zhuo, Zhang Xu, and the others.

Wasn't he a violent maniac, the Destroyer?

Wasn't he supposed to fight?

Why wasn't he following the script?
