Chapter 73 - Sixty-Nine: Entering the Cabinet



Tang Guangyu, at forty-three years old, had striking and solemn features, especially his eyes that seemed to scrutinize everything. Anyone who met his gaze felt like they had been stripped bare, instinctively causing them to lower their heads as if they had done something wrong.

Why would such a person, a stranger without any previous quarrels, suddenly decide to pick a fight? Tang Luo was perplexed, feeling he was just unlucky. If he protested his innocence at this point, who would believe him?

Esteemed elders of the sect, I have no objections to the son of the First Head of the Martial Hall entering our Secret Arts Pavilion, Tang Guangyu pointed out firmly towards Tang Luo.

However, I believe it is too soon to allocate him the rites of membership.

Tang Luo furrowed his eyebrows slightly, sitting and observing the long-robed Tang Guangyu confidently pressing his point.

Putting aside his relative youth and limited experience, as you are all aware, martial arts and cultivation methods are broad and profound fields. Many adjustments may seem bright and promising in the moment, but could easily obstruct a martial artists future development. That is why countless preceding masters have left behind their invaluable insights for reference.

His speech was loaded with sarcasm. If Tang Luo didnt consider this targeted at him, then what would? He gazed bewildered at Tang Guangyu standing before him.

Tang Luo, allow me to askyou, Tang Guangyu stared into Tang Luos eyes and asked: Have you studied Xu Shengs Analysis of Spiritual Power and Explosive Meridian Musings?

As Tang Guangyus question fell, a wave of whispers spread through the elders of the Secret Arts Pavilion.

For a researcher of martial arts or cultivation methods, these two works from Yuanzhous Xu Feng were seen as seminal. As the most renowned martial artist in Yuanzhou, Xu Feng gained his saintly reputation not only due to his ability to employ a single sword to traverse three thousand miles, but also because he authored several works exploring spiritual power and the mysteries of the human body.

These works allowed future generations to truly understand what spiritual power is and how to apply it. He didnt leave any god-level cultivation methods behind, but he left a chisel that would allow future generations to adjust and even create cultivation methods, which made him revered as a saint by later generations.

As a researcher of cultivation methods and martial techniques, while not everyone was intimately familiar with these masterpieces, certainly, everyone had read them. To what depth one had studied them varied according to individual accomplishments.

Therefore, the people of the Secret Arts Pavilion were puzzled by Tang Guangyus question. Based on Tang Luos contributions, he should have thoroughly studied these works, otherwise, he could not have improved so many martial techniques in such a short time.

Tang Luo rose reluctantly, his face sincere. He clasped his hands towards Tang Guangyu and replied, I have never read these two works.

With his response, the entire Secret Arts Pavilion became briefly silent, then erupted in shocked murmurs.

They found it hard to believe that someone could modify martial techniques without studying these two books a slight error could lead to conflict or stagnation in the meridians, potentially ruining a martial artists entire life.

Without even reading these two works, how could you, Tang Luo, sit alongside us in the Secret Arts Pavilion, Tang Guangyu declared judgement, as if passing a sentence against Tang Luo. Wait until you are well versed in these two works, then we can consider holding your induction ceremony.bender

Hes deliberately picking a fight with me, and hes done a lot of research beforehand. Tang Luo frowned, filled with doubt.

After Tang Guangyus words fell, everyone in the Secret Arts Pavilion started re-assessing the young man before them, evaluating Tang Luos qualifications anew.

I cant let things go on like this, or this bugger will ruin my initiation ceremony. Tang Luo was incredibly aggravated.

If he initially just wanted to attain the position of elder to enjoy its privileges and prestige, now that he encountered this meddler, he was determined more than ever to join the Secret Arts Pavilion today no one could stop him.

Humph. Tang Luo exhaled a sigh, then raised his head and respectfully bowed to Tang Guangyu, Esteemed Elder, you are absolutely right. I, who lacks knowledge and learning, only learned about these two impressive works by Xu Sheng today.

Tang Luos respectful attitude evidently pleased the elders of the Secret Arts Pavilion, and they stated:

Knowing shame is the beginning of courage. In three years or less, you could be sitting alongside us.

Despite your young age, you are gracious and respectful. In a few years time, you could become a pillar of this Secret Arts Pavilion.

Tang Guangyu nodded steadily, indicating that such an enlightened youngster would undoubtedly be extraordinary in the future.

The atmosphere in the Secret Arts Pavilion finally began to rise once more.

Tang Luo bowed deeply again before asking, Even though I havent read the two works of Xu Sheng, I have been studying Martial Saint Mountains Master Bu Jingyuns masterpiece Primordial Spiritual Power Theory. I wonder if the eminent elders think this is right or wrong?

Everyone nodded in realization, no wonder this young man can study martial arts techniques. After all, who can modify martial arts techniques without referring to the works left by their predecessors? That would be nonsense. Martial Saint Mountain is after all a sacred place of martial arts in Longzhou, and its incredible that there has been such a researcher.

The people in the Secret Arts Pavilion asked each other if they had read this work. During the discussion, several researchers nodded to indicate they had.

The theory of Returning to the Essence of Spiritual Power is too obscure. Xu Shengs two works are much easier to understand. You should study these two books first. This was a fifty-something-year-old elder with a slightly fat face and small eyes, who gently pointed out the problem with the work.

Thats right, while the martial arts at Martial Saint Mountain is profound and powerful, its too complicated for you at this stage. This was an old man sitting next to Tang Guangyu, who looked to be in his sixties or seventies. He stroked his long white beard as if he very much understood the Returning to the Essence of Spiritual Power.

Apart from Tang Hongtao, the elder of the tower, there were more than a dozen elders who didnt voice their opinions, but several of them whispered that they had read this work, including Tang Guangyu, who nodded at Tang Luo, implying that people should not aim too high.

The kind guidance from the elders was moving.

Tang Luo stood straight and said after looking around the Secret Arts Pavilion, I want to say, the name I just mentioned was made up-

The entire Secret Arts Pavilion fell silent except for breathing sounds

A few elders who were just boasting and talking with pride to the others had a dark face and they looked at Tang Luo with killing intent.

So tell me, why couldnt I sit in the Secret Arts Pavilion when all these fame-seeking people like you could? Tang Luo asked with disdain, tilting his head.

All the previous respect and reason were torn to shreds, and the young man standing before them seemed like a sharp blade that was fearless.

Tang Guangyus face darkened as he stared at Tang Luo. He could hardly believe that the young man had the courage to try to put him in his place in the hall of the Secret Arts Pavilion.

Tang Luo swept his gaze around the Secret Arts Pavilion and continued, You all need to understand. I didnt enter the Secret Arts Pavilion because of the identity of the sect heads son, but because my contributions are higher than many of you here. Do you understand?

The people in the Secret Arts Pavilion frowned at Tang Luos aggressive attitude, thinking what a sharp character he was.

Its just modifying some Mortal Realm martial arts, what big deal could it be? I can modify dozens such shallow martial arts techniques in one day. Its nothing. The slightly fat elder with small eyes was seething with anger as he said this.

Tang Luo glanced at him and chuckled, I wonder if this elder happens to be one of those whose contributions are even less than mine?

The slightly fat elders face turned red in an instant. He was panting like a bull, not knowing how to respond.

At crucial moments, its always the eldest brother who steps up.

Studying those inferior Mortal Realm martial art techniques in the market is naturally as easy as a walk in the park. But the Yellow Rank, even the Tongtian Domination Scroll of our family lineage, is our main research direction in the Secret Arts Pavilion. Just because our esteemed persons in the Secret Arts Pavilion are passionately committed to advancing our martial techniques, it gave you the chance to gain contributions through these trifling techniques. Tang Guangyu still seemed like the embodiment of righteousness.

It was really irritating to hear that.

Hehe. Tang Luo chuckled: I did a bit homework on your Secret Arts Pavilions last research progress on Tongtian Domination Scroll. If I remember correctly, it should be in the eleventh month of the year 1772 in Longzhous calendar? Six, oh no, seven years ago.

It was the modification of the Mortal Realm technique Wind Dispel in the Tongtian Domination Scroll, enhancing the techniques power, wasnt it? Tang Luo tilted his head, because his neck was sore from always looking up at people.

But this tilting pose seemed like a mockery to the Secret Arts Pavilion, and a few of the elders banged the table and stood up.

Watch your attitude, young man!

The Mortal and Yellow Rank techniques in the Tongtian Domination Scroll have approached perfection and are unchangeable. The ability to advance is much stronger than you researching those trash martial techniques no matter how many.

Tang Guangyu raised his hand, stopping the furious elders. It was not because he was kind-hearted, but because he was already furious.

This technique Wind Dispel was his proud work. It not only boosted its power but also reduced the consumption of spiritual power. Yet this young man dared to treat it with such contempt.

If previously he was only trying to embarrass Tang Luo out of personal reasons, now he was truly enraged..
