425 Travelling alone (1/2)
The common people path disciples gathered north of the vast habitat.
At this moment, hundreds of people were gathered up here, waiting quietly. The talents from the 3 sects and 6 schools with Xie An Luoshi etc at the helm were all so bored they were counting the number of ants there were on the ground.
Not far away, one person waited. It was a 30 over year old middle-aged man who stood with folded arms. The corner of his eyes was cramping up.
Hanfang just stood quietly at the side as he looked up in the sky, looking right at that blazing sun. However, he didn't find it blinding. The people here all didn't seem to notice his presence. No one looked over in his direction.
It was already late afternoon when finally there was some movement at the palace. Only to see an extremely luxurious carriage dragged by 12 dragon horned winged horses leisure driving over from the palace. The one driving was Zong Yuan.
At this moment the hundreds of people were in an uproar. The eyes of that white shirt middle-aged man were burning.
He originally wanted to immediately rage but he seemed to have heard something in his ear. A moment after hearing that he decided to bear with it and not speak.
A thick look of worry appeared on his face, thinking that was it okay for the person on the carriage to lead so many disciples?
Would they all fall at the Yan City pass? He was clear about the skill of that Yuan Jiuchen. It was already dangerous for this bunch of disciples to head over, now they had such an unreliable fellow at the helm.
100% chance of winning, before they even got there they probably had a 70% chance of losing.
The disciples within the formation were in deep discussions.
”Is it that Tanqiu within the carriage? Common people path main sect, that new 3rd generation core disciple?”
”This person is a little too arrogant! Daring to sit a carriage over, isn't he afraid of the teachers scolding?”
”Scoff! With his identity who in the palace can care about him? However, this fellow wouldn't be thinking about sitting it over to Yan City Pass right?”
”Tsk, he is too cool!”
”I don't know what to say about this person! For the sect to allow this, I don't know if it is a blessing or a curse…”
Hanfang's eyelids were twitching, rubbing his temples to ease his headache.
Rumors had it that this Gantian Monster king didn't abide by the rule of facing troubles and hardships together with the soldiers. Whenever they went to war he would comfortably watch on from his large carriage.
It seems like he was prepared to do the same in the common people's path.
After the carriage arrived, Zong Shou walked off the carriage. His expression was green and white and shuddering. Like a wind blow would cause him to fall.
However he forcefully held on, respectfully bowing towards that middle-aged man, ”Greetings mister! Don't blame me for coming late this time. I was rushing to breakthrough, which is why my body isn't in good condition. I can only use the carriage. Mister, please don't be annoyed!”
This person's identity was several times smaller than his, Zong Shou didn't know how he should call him so he just decided on mister.
Since this common people path palace was the main hall of the common people path and a learning environment, there were professors, priests, teachers, similar to the imperial college of the central dynasty.
This person took up the role of a professor within the common people path palace.
When the white shirt middle-aged man heard that, his anger dissipated. However, he still used his spiritual sense to take a look, following which his face was filled with a weird expression, unable to tell whether or not Zong Shou had injuries or not.
He moved to the side to avoid his bow, following which he said coldly, ”How can disciple accept the bow from a great great senior master? Since you have a reason for coming late, you just have to explain. Now that everyone has gathered, what does great great senior master have to say?”
Zong Shou smiled and looked around. Then, His eyes were filled with shock.
This time the common people path selected close to hundred disciples from the main sect, the 3 sects, and 6 schools. Their strength was all extraordinary. None of them were lower than grade 6. There were elites like Xuanye who had already entered grade 7.
However, all these people were mostly standing relaxed. Each of them had different personalities and were all prideful. With just one look her knew that they wouldn't get along.
What shocked him was that the other portion of roughly 400 people all had a certain age and were riding grade 4 silver scale wind stepping beasts. Looking at their auras, they were all Xuanwu realm experts.
Inside there were 20 spirit masters who looked solemn. Even with the loud commotion that Zong Shou caused they weren't fazed, they also didn't start any discussions with one another.
Were these the dao soldiers of the common people path?
Rumors had it that each sect, those who were slightly stronger would have the habit of keeping dao soldiers.
Their talents were often average or slightly above. From birth, they received the kindness and nurturing of the sect. Their families were also taken care of by the sect which was why they were mostly loyal.
Although they didn't have as bright futures as those hundreds of common people path talents to be able to search for the path of their own lives, these people were all pillars that the sect needed.
Although the 400 people were wearing the same armor, the markings were slightly different. Within the surface patterns on the cavalry, armor hid the symbols of the various sects.
Amongst which there were 150 people from the common people path main hall. The 3 sects had 125 and the other 6 schools had 125.
