Qian Renxue, in her identity as Xue Qinghe, had long witnessed the Heart of Fire Team's overwhelming performance in the Soul Master Competition preliminaries and promotion rounds. The performance of students like Ning Rongrong and Dugu Yan far exceeded the power that Spirits like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and Blue Phosphor Serpent could possess. She did not believe this was not due to Xin's teaching.
She bowed slightly, and a golden token appeared in her hand. It was not as ornate as the Supreme Pontiff Order, bearing only a sacred angel engraving.
This was also her utmost respect.
Xin took a deep breath, stood up, and replied:
"Thank you for your high regard, but I have no intention of joining other forces. I only wish to peacefully teach and nurture talent at Heart of Fire Academy, to refine raw talent, and not to be embroiled in war."
"And if I may be frank, Miss Qian, while it is true that Spirit Hall has grown powerful, have you considered what would happen even if Spirit Hall truly unified the two great Empires? A thousand years of achievement? Immortalized in history?"
"At that time, the continent would be stained with blood, resentment would rise from all major forces, and the people would lie dead everywhere. What would Spirit Hall do then? Seek peace for temporary tranquility? Or kill everyone? How would you govern after unification?"
"Those who obey me live? Those who defy me die? How is that different from other Empires or forces? To me, it would merely be an old Empire with a new name, and a new Emperor. "
"If that were the case, by helping you train Spirit Master teams, wouldn't I become the biggest executioner when the fighting starts? This is not my original intention for taking disciples and imparting knowledge, so please forgive me, but I cannot join your Elder Palace."
After Xin finished speaking, under the white orchid tree, Qian Renxue was momentarily stunned.
Previously, all major forces were vying for power, with undercurrents surging, all wanting a share of the spoils under these undercurrents. How many people would consider what would happen after the outcome?
Xin's words instantly silenced Qian Renxue.
Yes, dynastic changes and wars only bring suffering to the common people. For the strong, it's just a change of Empire name.
"I have been enlightened. Teacher Xin's words have awakened me from a dream. These issues are perhaps what our Spirit Hall currently lacks and precisely what we need to consider."
Qian Renxue remained silent for a long time, then finally stood up and bowed slightly to Xin.
These questions had no answers, but they were worth deep thought.
"Xue'er is deeply touched by Teacher's words. Perhaps it is also Douluo Continent's fortune to have such a teacher as Teacher Xin on the continent. I wish to take Teacher as my esteemed mentor, to learn the art of governing the continent, ensuring the longevity of an Empire, and ruling the people. Is Teacher willing to accept me as a disciple?"
