"I misunderstood you." Mr. Heng cupped his hands; he truly had nothing more to say.
Zhao Xing indeed had the talent!
Geng Shouchang felt deeply regretful. If only Zhao Xing focused on Heavenly Ti Skill, how great it would be!
But alas, the more talented one is, the bigger the ambition.
"Regarding your entrance to the academy, I will resolve it as soon as possible," Geng Shouchang said, "Dual cultivating the three sects is destined to be a tortuous and difficult path. You will face many doubts and criticisms. If you do not succeed in three years, you may reconsider your future direction."
"Yes, thank you, Mr. Geng." Zhao Xing cupped his hands.
He certainly knew it would not be easy. To unify the three sects and beco the leader of all Ministers of Agriculture was a daunting task.
Prejudices between sects were deeply rooted; re talent was not enough.
Even with Zhao Xing’s exceptional talent, if he was not from their sect, it was hard to gain complete recognition or any recognition at all.
It wasn’t only the Minister of Agriculture’s profession that had sect rivalries. The Martial Artist profession had the sa.
For example, among Martial Artists, there were divisions between the Sword Sect and the Qi Sect.
Which one was legitimate and which was the proper Dao?
For this matter, the two sects often engaged in the Great Taoism Competition, and many people died each year over this legitimacy battle.
Compared to them, Geng Shouchang and Mr. Heng were much more accommodating. When he later went to Xuantian Academy with his Ten Thousand Skill Avatar, he was bound to face many doubts.
...
Mr. Heng and Geng Shouchang left.
Geng Shouchang arrived cheerfully but left in a less pleasant mood.
Although he successfully brought Zhao Xing into the Heavenly Ti Sect, it was only a clone.
It was really not easy to get Zhao Xing in; a lot of pressure had to be endured.
The main reason was Zhao Xing’s involvent with the top-level skill inheritance.
Under the top-level skills, learning was freely available.
Because the Great Zhou official collected low, mid, and high-level skills and promoted them for free, top-level skills were not easily learned.
"Mr. Heng, I have a request." Geng Shouchang transmitted his voice.
"Speak, Mr. Geng."
"About today’s matter, especially Zhao Xing showcasing the Earth Palace Skill, please do not inform Sima Yunhai."
Hearing this, Mr. Heng nodded: "Rest assured, I will keep my mouth shut."
If Zhao Xing’s talent was told to Sima Yunhai, he might beco an opponent instead of a recomnder.
Because this fellow was not sincerely recomnding, only intending to get revenge on Liu Tianning.
"Thank you."
As soon as they stepped out, ng Kun and Gu Changqing imdiately looked up.
Upon seeing the expressions of Geng Shouchang and Mr. Heng, ng Kun instantly smiled.
Because he noticed that the two didn’t seem very pleased, while Zhao Xing was welcoming them with a smile.
Which ant they still had plenty of opportunities!
"Changqing, let’s go in."
ng Kun and Gu Changqing quickly flew inside.
...
When Xiao Ming served the second round of tea, he found the parlor in Listening Rain Pavilion to be a complete ss.
He did not dare to say anything more, let alone tell Zhao Xing that he had ’damaged the hotel property.’
Instead, he sent a clerk to ask Zhao Xing if they needed the place cleaned and rearranged.
"Go inform Mr. Xiao to have it renovated. I will compensate for any damages at cost," Zhao Xing said.
"Yes." The clerk obediently retreated.
He then cupped his hands to ng Kun and Gu Changqing: "I apologize sincerely, there was an unexpected situation earlier. Please wait patiently, my lords."
He didn’t want to guide them to the side chamber for discussion.
Why invite people to the main hall for the Heavenly Ti Sect but the side chamber for our Earth Advantage Sect? Who are you looking down on!
However, ng Kun and Gu Changqing did not mind such trivial matters at all.
Seeing soone cleaning the main hall, ng Kun decided not to enter.
Pointing to the lawn outside, he used the earth to create three tables and stone stools.
ng Kun, taking the initiative, pulled Gu Changqing to sit down and waved Zhao Xing over.
As soon as they sat down, ng Kun spoke:
"Zhao Xing, join Kunyuan Academy!"
"I can authorize you to beco a Doctor of Governance, and you will receive three billion a year in governance funds!"
"Additionally, Kunyuan Academy has the most Blessed Lands and Spirit Mountains!"
"Doctors of Governance have opportunities each year to retreat and practice in these places!"
"You can learn top-level skills at will. I guarantee you will have three teachers each year, each dedicating a month to teaching you."
ng Kun started off strong, listing all the concrete benefits, and he had already thought of the teachers. All he needed was for Zhao Xing to co.
Unlike Mr. Heng and Geng Shouchang, ng Kun knew Zhao Xing’s talent early on because the two spells Zhao Xing comprehended were learned from the Jiyuan Palace Gu Changqing had set up.
In two months, without a teacher, Zhao Xing comprehended two spells close to top-level skills? Of course, ng Kun was willing to poach him!
Seeing ng Kun and Gu Changqing so down-to-earth, Zhao Xing did not beat around the bush and directly nodded: "Thank you, my lords, I am willing to go."
ng Kun and Gu Changqing were taken aback; did he agree so readily?
They initially thought it would take so effort.
"But I have a difficult matter that I need to discuss with you both in advance." Zhao Xing said.
"Speak." ng Kun said, "Whatever the difficulty, as long as we can solve it, we will do our best for you."
"In the coming years, I will only send my Ten Thousand Skill Avatar."
After Zhao Xing finished speaking, ng Kun and Gu Changqing were stunned.
So that was the catch here.
No wonder he agreed so easily.
No wonder Mr. Heng and Geng Shouchang were not pleased.
"Did you also agree to Old Man Geng?" Gu Changqing asked, "Are you sending an avatar to Xuantian Academy as well?"
"Yes."
ng Kun and Gu Changqing felt like a bucket of cold water was poured over them.
If that was the case, the aning of recruiting Zhao Xing was greatly diminished.
"How can you have so much energy?" Gu Changqing said, "You should reconsider it."
