Founding of the Tang Sect, the Crown Prince's Invitation

The following morning, the meeting room at Shrek Academy was packed.

Tang San spread a map of Heaven Dou City across the table, his finger coming to rest on the old southern district. There stood a sizable estate that originally belonged to the Strength Clan. Ever since the Clear Sky Sect closed its mountain gates, the Strength Clan had moved into Heaven Dou City, maintaining the livelihood of their clan members through blacksmithing and porter work.

The newly established Tang Sect needs people capable of crafting hidden weapons, Tang San said. The Strength Clan is familiar with metals and was once a subordinate clan of the Clear Sky Sect. I will go speak with them personally.

Tai Tan held a deep loyalty to Tang Hao, so whether he could accept Tang San was not hard to guess. The more troublesome ones were the other three clans. The Defense Clan excelled at construction, the Speed Clan possessed thorough intelligence networks, and the Breaking Clan was proficient in poisons, having also harbored deep, blood-feuding hatred against both the Clear Sky Sect and Spirit Hall.

Yuan Yu picked up the map and looked at it for a moment. The four clans can hold up the Tang Sect, but their tempers are each bigger than the last. Especially the Breaking Clan; upon seeing someone from Spirit Hall, they might unleash poison before asking for a name.

Ma Hongjun said, Can't you just avoid wearing that Worship Hall robe?

I can change my clothes, but my face hasn't changed. Plenty of people saw me at the Soul Master Tournament.

Then don't go.

Yuan Yu raised his eyes to look at him. You're going?

Ma Hongjun lowered his head to study the map. I feel Third Brother is the most suitable for sect negotiations.
