Chapter 370: End of the First Lecture

"-With that, today's lecture can be considered finished." With Xuan Hao's lecture smoothly proceeding for the next one hour before Xuan hao finished.

The outer disciples didn't even notice the fact that Xuan Hao began leaving before he had already disappeared from the building together with Bai Ning and Zhi Ruo.

""...""

For a short moment, all the outer sect disciples just sat quietly as they tried their best to remember everything they had heard during the past hour.

Not daring to say a single word in case they would ruin this moment.

Even Qing Chenyi sitting towards the back of the group remained completely silent as he felt his cultivation realm slowly proceeding forward. Only a slight push and he would be able to enter the Ninth Stage of the QI Condensation Realm!

Even if he had personally listened, Qing Chenyi knew that he was far from understanding most of what Elder Xuan had talked about when it came to the Qi Condensation Realm... When he began talking about the Foundation Establishment Realm, he had already given up on understanding what was being said and had instead focused on trying to remember the things that had been explained about the Qi Condensation Realm!

Looking around himself, Qing Chenyi understood that the other outer sect disciples like himself was in a similar situation. Only a few of those who were already at the Foundation Establishment Realm and were going to attempt becoming an inner disciple in the soon to be future sitting at the front, had tried remembering what Elder Xuan Had said when he began talking about the Foundation Establishment Realm...

And just looking at their concentrated expressions, Qing Chenyi easily realized that they were attempting to use what they had managed to learn by using it to strengthen their foundation here and now.

Not wanting to risk forgetting anything on the way back.

The other outer sect disciple at the Qi Condensation Realm slowly decided to do the same as all of them remained seated without moving and Qing Chenyi soon decided to do the same as well.

Soon enough, the one hundred outer sect disciples all decided to remain still in the same place before each of them attempted to implement some of the things they had learned from the earlier lecture.

In the end, the fact that nobody had shown up even after a few hours had passed since Elder Xuan left, caused quite a few elders from the outer sect to worry, as they ended up entering to see what had happened.

The elders suddenly entering caused the disciples inside to wake up fully as they had all looked over towards the elders entering, some with anger and others with confusion. Not fully certain about what had just happened or how much time had passed.

Soon, the stories of what happened began spreading across the Flying Sword Sect. Many of the disciples who had joined the lecture even managed to break through over the next few days and weeks. Helping increase the interest and curiosity that both the disciples and elders had towards Elder Xuan even more.

...

Xuan Hao, having left the building where he held his first ever lecture for someone outside his own personal disciples, was slowly making his way out of the outer part of the sect. Heading back in the direction of the inner part of the sect where his mountain and pavilion was located.

"So how was my first lecture?" Curious about what his disciple or Zhi Ruo might have thought about his lecture, Xuan Hao could not help himself from asking as he looked over towards both of them walking a short distance behind him.

"It was great master! Although I didn't understand much when it came to the Foundation Establishment part, I still understood it when you talked about the Qi Condensation Realm! Most of it was also things you explained to me when I first began cultivating..."

"It was enlightening, I might even be able to enter the Qi Condensation Realm after returning to the pavilion..."

Listening to both Bai Ning and Zhi Ruo's answers, Xuan Hao could not help smiling to himself.

From the looks of things, it looked like his first ever lecture went well.

Moreover, if Zhi Ruo could really reach the Qi Condensation Realm, she would be able to more easily move around in the future and maybe also learn a few easier techniques that would make things like keeping the pavilion clean easier.

"Looks like it will not be too hard having to do one lecture every week in the future... Now that things have mostly calmed down, I will also have a lot of free time again!" Muttering this to himself as he thought about how calm things were going to become in the Flying Sword Sect, Xuan Hao could not help smiling happily to himself.

There was no more Heavenly Sky Kingdom and the Black Rose Sect had pretty much disappeared after the destruction of the Heavenly Sky Kingdom. The Azure Sky Kingdom also seemed to have ended up in some sort of internal struggle after they left.

The only thing that Xuan Hao could see happening in the future, was the alchemy competition hosted by the Artisan Alchemist from the Sky Empire...

How could I forget that! I still have to prepare in case that old alchemist from the Sky Empire tries snatching my disciple!

Suddenly remembering the upcoming alchemy competition that his disciple would be joining in a few months; Xuan Hao suddenly felt an unknown pressure bearing down on him as he clearly knew that the Sky Empire was not a power that he could afford to offend given his current strength.

If that old alchemist from the Sky Empire really took an interest in his disciple and wanted to take Qing Yi in as an alchemy disciple, Xuan Hao would at the very least need to have the ability to show off the fact that she already had an alchemist master and one that was no weaker than the Artisan Realm at that!

For something like that, Xuan Hao knew he would at least have to learn some of the more ordinary pills and potions for the Artisan Realm... He doubted the old artisan alchemist from the Sky Empire would care much about a hair growth potion at the Soul Rank...
