It took a while before Zhang Xuan was finally done 'inspecting' the chicken thighs and put them down .
It seemed like, for objects other than a book, laying his sight on them wasn't enough . He still had to come into physical contact with them in order to collect their information in the Library of Heaven's Path .
Nevertheless, it is good enough that I am able to gather and read books faster than before! Zhang Xuan thought in satisfaction .
It was embarrassing that a noble master teacher like him had been forced to run around in the library in order to collect books in the past . With the newly upgraded Library of Heaven's Path, he would be able to remain graceful while taking in new knowledge .
Soon, he completed his meal and stood up . "I'm done . Let's go!"
Back at the underground chamber where Wu Yangzi had been imprisoned before his demise, he had said that he had left his most important heritage and treasure at the Three Stars of the Earth Dragon . However, it had been two thousand years since his passing, and putting aside whatever the Three Stars of the Earth Dragon was, even finding his old residence was a huge trouble in itself .
Luo Qiqi had been looking into the matter ever since her return, and in the past two days, while she was taking care of the unconscious Zhang Xuan, she'd happened to receive some clues to the matter .
"Alright . " Luo Qiqi nodded .
As they were walking out of the residence, they suddenly saw a young lady standing before the door, seemingly intending to knock on it . Upon seeing Zhang Xuan, she quickly clasped her fist and bowed . "Zhang shi!"
"Ran Xiaoxiao?" Zhang Xuan asked doubtfully .
It was the person who had challenged him back when he'd first received the keys to the residence, as well as the second runner-up in the Grade-1 Annual Tournament .
She had challenged him to a duel of Impartation of Heaven's Will, only to end up falling under his control and defeating the first runner-up Wu Chan and third runner-up Xiao Nan in his stead .
"Yes, I came here to thank Zhang shi for your guidance…" Ran Xiaoxiao smiled .
Initially, she was extremely displeased to hear that a freshman was going to take up the first residence available to Grade-1, which was also the reason why she'd marched up to his residence upon hearing the news and challenged him to a duel . Yet, the other party had been able to point out the various flaws in her cultivation directly, and it was then that she'd realized the gap between her and the other party .
Under the other party's guidance, she'd been able to overcome her bottleneck, achieving a long-awaited breakthrough in her cultivation . Out of excitement, she'd rushed to his residence in order to express her gratitude . At the same time, she had also heard some worrying news, so she came over to enquire about it as well .
"There is no need to stand on ceremony . We are fellow students, so it's only right for us to help one another . " Zhang Xuan waved his hands casually .
"If not for Zhang shi's guidance, I would still be stuck at my previous bottleneck, unable to take a step forward in my cultivation…" Ran Xiaoxiao was just about to bow deeply to express her gratitude once more when she suddenly caught sight of the figure beside Zhang Xuan and widened her eyes . "Senior Qiqi?"
She had been too excited to see Zhang Xuan earlier on that she'd neglected the person who was standing behind him . To her astonishment, it was the most famous Grade-2 senior of the academy, Luo Qiqi!
Luo Qiqi nodded in response to her .
Ran Xiaoxiao was one of the top five geniuses of the Grade-1 students, so it was natural that Luo Qiqi had heard of her as well .
"You two…" Ran Xiaoxiao blinked rapidly in shock .
Luo Qiqi was extremely famous in the Master Teacher Academy, not just because of her incredible talent or her beautiful features, but more importantly, it was said that she had an extraordinary background as well .
She was known to be very diligent, spending most of her time studying and cultivating . Thus, she rarely had any interactions with the opposite sex . Why would she be in Zhang shi's residence?
On top of that, the sun had already disappeared beyond the horizon, and darkness had set into the sky . For two people of the opposite gender to meet under the same roof in the middle of the night… What could they be up to?
"I am learning pill forging from Zhang shi . He is my teacher!" Luo Qiqi replied .
"Teacher?" Ran Xiaoxiao widened her eyes in disbelief upon hearing those words .
Zhang shi is just a Grade-1 student in the academy, and on top of that, he only arrived a few days ago . For a Grade-2 genius like you to acknowledge him as your teacher…
Not to mention, you are also one of the school belles! If word spreads, won't a riot occur amongst the men of the academy?
"If you are here to thank me, there is really no need for it . As fellow master teachers, we should help each other wherever we can . " Not wanting to be delayed here, Zhang Xuan waved his hand as he prepared to leave with Luo Qiqi .
"AH!" Hearing those words, Ran Xiaoxiao suddenly recalled the other reason she was there, and she quickly spoke up . "Actually, there is another matter I need to talk to Zhang shi about . "
"Oh?"
"Over the last few days, as I was walking around the academy, I heard some news… The student populace is saying that you have offended quite a few student factions, and it seems they are going to coordinate with one another to deal with you!" Ran Xiaoxiao said worriedly .
"I offended the student factions? When did I?" Zhang Xuan was taken aback .
He did refuse to purchase the Teacher Information Documentation from the factions back then… but surely, they wouldn't be that offended over such a small matter?
Besides, it should be his freedom to decide whether he would buy something or not . For student factions consisting of master teachers to band together against him over such a small matter, that was plain ridiculous .
"You didn't offend them?" Seeing the confusion on the other party's face, Ran Xiaoxiao shook her head . "These student factions spend the entire year gathering information on each teacher in order to compile them into a book so as to sell them to the freshmen… However, their business ended up being foiled by Zhang shi, and their morals were even questioned for their doings . How could they possibly not be angry?"
"I foiled their business?" Zhang Xuan scratched his head in confusion . "But I didn't do anything at all!"
What the heck did I foil?
I have been unconscious the past three days, so what could I have possibly done? Or are you saying that I actually sleepwalked and did something that even I am unaware of?
"You didn't do anything?" Ran Xiaoxiao sighed deeply in frustration . "Does Zhang shi know the freshmen Jun Ruohuan, Song Chao, and Luo Xuan?"
"I do," Zhang Xuan replied .
"The three of them have distributed their own version of the Teacher Information Documentation in your name for free, and the content of the book has been shown to be even more detailed and accurate than those sold by the other student factions… This has caused a huge uproar amongst both the freshmen and seniors alike," Ran Xiaoxiao said .
