Same Slogans, Different Results

Seeing that Zhang Yang was pressing him relentlessly, giving him no chance to find another excuse, Kong Xiuping could only say helplessly, "Don't worry, since I promised you, I will definitely come back!"

He's already been morally blackmailed; what else can he do?

He truly regretted it; he shouldn't have had any dealings with the Azure Cloud Sect in the first place.

This place should never have been visited!

Zhang Yang smiled with satisfaction. Then, he politely saw Kong Xiuping out of the sect, waiting for Kong Xiuping to return and report.

He himself quickly gathered the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect who were going to participate in the Prodigy Battlefield and said seriously, "Junior Sister's training of you is temporarily coming to an end."

But don't let your guard down, I've found you another training opponent.

The other party is the son of Sage Master, who inherited the Sage Master's Supreme Lore, cultivates Vast Righteous Qi, and is an unparalleled genius of the Langya Sacred Land.

You must train hard, not only to withstand his Supreme Lore, but also to find a way to defeat him."

Upon hearing Zhang Yang's words, Zhang Changshan, Wang Baole, and the others immediately became serious.

They now all know that the Sage Master is Late Tribulation Transcendence Realm Immortal Cultivation Realm.

How powerful must Kong Xiuping be, having inherited this Supreme Lore?

Everyone took it seriously and dared not slack off in the slightest.

Meanwhile, Kong Xiuping returned to the Langya Sacred Land with doubts and grievances, and met his father.

"How is the situation?" the Sage Master inquired.

Kong Xiuping immediately reported what he had seen and heard at the Azure Cloud Sect to his father, and then he said with doubt, "Father, I feel that the Azure Cloud Sect is strange in every way, but I don't know where the strangeness lies."

The Sage Master's expression was extremely solemn as he said, "The reason you don't know is because there is a power within it that you cannot see."

The Power of Enlightenment!

This was clearly the path he was walking, and the power he was about to seize, so why did Zhang Yang use these methods so smoothly?

He pondered for a long time, then stood up and wrote down the slogans. He said to Kong Xiuping, "Take these slogans and post them in our medicinal herb garden and mine, and see how effective they are!"

Kong Xiuping smiled wryly, shook his head, and said, "Father, I'm afraid this matter needs to be handled by someone else. I still have to go to the Azure Cloud Sect."

"Hmm?" The Sage Master looked at Kong Xiuping strangely.

Could it be that his son has also become emotionally aware?

With a hint of shame, Kong Xiuping said, "I've been tricked by Zhang Yang again. I have to go to the Azure Cloud Sect as a sparring partner, and I'm afraid I won't be back for three to five months."

The Sage Master was speechless for a moment.

What the hell is this? They're just going to keep exploiting this father and son like crazy?

Moreover, what kind of sparring partner?

Or is it three to five months?

The Sage Master sighed helplessly, waved to Kong Xiuping, and gestured for him to do Kong Xiuping.

The Sage Master also discovered that although Zhang Yang had tricked them, father and son, many times, they had ultimately benefited from it.

There are no downsides, especially after the two sides become allies.

If that's the case, what's there to worry about?

Moreover, his son spent three or four months training with the Azure Cloud Sect, which meant he had that much time to spend with Situ Mingyue.

If we manage to bring Situ Mingyue back, we'll have hit the jackpot.

Even if he can't be brought back, it's still a boost for Kong Xiuping.

Good news!

After the Sage Master sent his son away, he summoned Tu Shan, gave Tu Shan the banner, and asked Tu Shan to make arrangements.

Soon, slogans were also posted in the medicinal gardens and mines of Langya Sacred Land.

"Every brick used to build Langya should be moved wherever it's needed!"

"Work hard to build today, and enjoy life to the fullest tomorrow!"

"To get rich, plant more medicinal herbs and more trees!"

"Labor is glorious, laziness is shameful!"

It's practically a direct copy of the Azure Cloud Sect's slogan; if Zhang Yang finds out, he might have to pay copyright fees.

The Sage Master's Divine Sense immediately began to inspect the herb garden and mine; he needed to see the reaction of the Langya disciples after these slogans were posted.

His next reaction left him even more confused.

"Bah! Labor is glorious, huh? Where are all the elders at the Dao Integration Realm doing the labor? It's just us doing the labor!"

"You want me to be your brick? I'm not doing that! Nobody's going to move me around!"

"Plant more medicinal herbs and trees? It'll only benefit you all, why would I plant them? I'm not planting them!"

"I'm not going to work today! I want to see just how shameful laziness is!"

The entire Langya Sacred Land's herb gardens and mines were filled with curses.

The disciples, busy with their work, ignored the slogans and didn't take them seriously at all.

Of course, these slogans were sent by the Holy Land and carry great power, so no one dares to destroy them.

Because no one could destroy them, the slogans were an eyesore to the working disciples.

As a result, everyone's resentment grew even stronger!

"This isn't right!"

The Sage Master saw everything, and almost tore off his beard in the process.

He couldn't understand why, when the slogans were all similar, some even identical, they were effective at the Azure Cloud Sect but ineffective at the Langya Sacred Land.

Why is that?

The Sage Master certainly wouldn't suspect that his son had sent back false information, so the problem still lay with the Azure Cloud Sect, or rather, with Zhang Yang.

What is involved in this?

The Sage Master pondered deeply but could not find a solution.

He was getting restless and wanted to go to the Azure Cloud Sect to find out what was going on.

If he weren't the lord of the Holy Land, Late Tribulation Realm, he would have truly passed away.

Unfortunately, his status prevented him from frequently visiting the Azure Cloud Sect.

He began to struggle with his decision.

Meanwhile, Kong Xiuping, feeling wronged, returned to the Azure Cloud Sect once again.

"Brother Zhang, I can demonstrate my Supreme Lore to your sect's disciples, but I have a small request: I would like to have a match with you." Kong Xiuping's pent-up frustration turned into anger, and he wanted to vent his anger on Zhang Yang.

However, thinking of Zhang Yang's Supreme-Grade Spirit Artifacts, he immediately added, "Just relying on cultivation level, without using any Law Treasures!"

If he were to use Law Treasure, he would have absolutely no chance.

"Okay!" Zhang Yang agreed.

His sparring with Kong Xiuping also allowed him to verify his own Power of the Great Dao and improve his strength.

Since his strength improved, such sparring partners have become very rare.

Kong Xiuping was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "Shall we go to the Martial Practice Arena now?"

He then realized that his State of Mind was not right and he couldn't be happy. He needed to maintain an angry state and use the Anger Character Art to deal with Zhang Yang. He immediately stirred up the anger in his heart.

Zhang Yang naturally sensed the anger emanating from Kong Xiuping, as well as the aura emanating from Kong Xiuping.

However, he showed no fear and pointed to the Martial Practice Arena: "Please!"

He then flew towards the Martial Practice Arena first.

Kong Xiuping arrived shortly after.

"Master, I'll have to trouble you to close the Martial Practice Arena!" Zhang Yang called out to his master first, then looked seriously at Kong Xiuping and said, "Brother Kong, write your characters and let me see how much you've improved!"
