Seeing Mu Hanyan, the hundreds of inner and outer disciples were all surprised. Compared to alchemy, beast taming was much simpler, and taming a sword pet greatly increased combat power. Therefore, the number of disciples in the Beast Taming Hall was more than ten times that of the Danxin Hall.
"Mu Hanyan, it's Mu Hanyan. She's here to practice the art of taming beasts again." Someone exclaimed in a low voice.
"What's so strange about this? She can even learn alchemy, so learning the art of taming beasts should be easy for her." Someone else said calmly.
"It looks like she's going to learn all the unique skills in Longyan Academy. Such talent is simply unprecedented and will never be seen again. It's such a tragedy to practice with her." Someone else said with a depressed look.
"It doesn't matter if we feel sad, but I wonder if the mentors will feel sad?" someone said thoughtfully.
"I hope the mentors won't cause him any more trouble. I heard that Master Zhu from Danxin Hall was badly beaten black and blue that day, and the Sun and Moon Red Pill Furnace hasn't been repaired yet." The other disciples also prayed silently for their mentor.
At the same time, in the inner hall of the Beast Taming Palace, several white-bearded old men frowned as they looked at Mu Hanyan coming from afar.
"Does any of you have a grudge against Mu Hanyan?" asked the oldest elder.
His name is Deng Yingjie, and he is the master of the Beast Taming Palace.
"No." The two instructors next to him shook their heads.
"Do any of your family members have any grudges against her?" Palace Master Deng asked.
"No." The two instructors thought about it and then shook their heads.
"Then, do your distant relatives, such as your brother-in-law's nephew's brother-in-law's father-in-law, have any conflicts with her?" Palace Master Deng continued to ask.
"...Sir, the father-in-law of our brother-in-law's nephew's brother-in-law is none other than ourselves, right?" The two mentors pondered for a long time, took a long detour, and finally came back and spoke cautiously.
"Uh..." Palace Master Deng's face turned red.
"In short, do many of your relatives and friends, including those who are not related to you at all, have any grudges with Mu Hanyan?" Palace Master Deng asked with some embarrassment and annoyance.
"No, absolutely not." The two instructors said, patting their chests.
"That's good, that's good." Palace Master Deng patted his chest and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Palace Master, you are not worried that we will make things difficult for Mu Hanyan, are you?" asked the two mentors.
"Nonsense, Qiu Yongcheng wanted to stand up for the Qiu family, but ended up being wasted in the Beast Soul Hall. I went to see him off the other day and saw him limping out of the academy on crutches. He looked so miserable.
Tian Wenliang wants to make things difficult for her and is now lying in bed unable to get up. I went to see him yesterday, and as soon as he mentioned Mu Hanyan, his face was full of tears, flowing like a flood.
Zhu Tianping made things difficult for her, and not only was the ancestral alchemy furnace destroyed, but he himself was also covered in bruises. Fortunately, he used the rules set by the ancestors as a pretext, which made his case sound reasonable and his methods were not too despicable, so he did not suffer any serious injuries.
And Nie Fangsheng, I heard that ever since he was slapped in the face by Mu Hanyan in public and lost face, he was so traumatized that he became a bad person. He keeps talking to himself all day long. If he continues like this, he will probably go insane.
If you two dare to cross her, God knows what will happen to you." Palace Master Deng couldn't help but feel sympathetic and sad when he mentioned Qiu Yongcheng and his colleagues.
"Please rest assured, Lord Palace Master. Not to mention that there is no festival, even if there is, we dare not cause trouble for her again. Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?" Seeing that even the Lord Palace Master was so concerned about Mu Hanyan, the two mentors didn't need to save face for themselves and spoke honestly.
To be honest, they were worried that the Palace Master would be hard on Mu Hanyan because of his long-term friendship with Qiu Yongcheng, Zhu Tianping and others. However, they didn't expect that he would be more concerned about Mu Hanyan than themselves and would give them instructions instead. This really calmed their uneasy hearts.
"It's great that you think this way. Today's affairs of the Beast Taming Palace will be left to you to handle. I will go into seclusion." Palace Master Deng said, stroking his beard.
"Retreat?" The two looked at Palace Master Deng in surprise.
"Why not? I'm the Palace Master. Can't I just go into seclusion?" Palace Master Deng rolled his eyes and said.
"Yes, of course." The two instructors wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads at the same time.
They had been at the Beastmaster Palace for over thirty years, and had known Palace Master Deng for even longer, over fifty years. This was the first time they had heard he was planning a retreat. Clearly, the retreat was fake, and the real reason was to avoid Mu Hanyan.
She could actually scare the Lord of a palace into this state. This Mu Hanyan is truly a talent.
"Okay, I'm leaving first. You guys be careful and don't get into any trouble." After saying this, Palace Master Deng turned around quickly, put on the oil on his feet, and ran away.
The two were left looking at each other in silence.
"Master Zhu, I suddenly had an epiphany. Perhaps I've found an opportunity for a breakthrough. I might as well go into seclusion as well." A mentor said after a long silence.
"Liang Congrong, stop giving me that shit. Your cultivation hasn't improved in more than ten years. What about an opportunity? Tell me, how did that opportunity come about? Could it be that you were scared by Mu Hanyan?" Instructor Zhu said disdainfully.
"Hehe, how about we play finger-guessing, and whoever loses gets to stay." The two have been together for many years and know each other well. When Professor Zhu revealed the secret, Professor Liang did not get angry, but laughed.
"Alright, why the fist fight?" Instructor Zhu immediately accepted the challenge. To be honest, he didn't want to face Mu Hanyan either, so it was better to avoid her if possible.
"How about rock-paper-scissors? I know how to play that," said Teacher Liang.
"That's all you know...Okay, then let's play rock-paper-scissors." Teacher Zhu looked down on Teacher Liang again.
"Scissors... Rock... Paper... You're cheating, deliberately slowing down a beat. Try again."
"Scissors... Rock... Paper... How shameless of you to cheat at rock-paper-scissors! Try again!"
"Scissors... Rock... Paper..."
If outsiders saw the two Beast Taming Masters in the Beast Taming Hall playing rock-paper-scissors and arguing with each other until their faces were red, I wonder how surprised they would be.
If they knew that the purpose of the two people playing finger-guessing was to avoid Mu Hanyan, who knows how surprised they would be?
"Okay, you have nothing to say this time. I won. Today, the Beast Taming Palace will be handed over to you." Finally, the two decided the winner. Teacher Zhu looked very proud and smiled brightly. He was even happier than when he was selected by Longyan College.
This is normal. Even if he had not been selected by Longyan College, his life would not be in danger. But after meeting Mu Hanyan, even if he did not die, he would probably live a life worse than death.
