The next morning, Zhang Xuan wakes up and feels that he has recovered to his peak condition. Resting on Dragon Island is indeed better than resting outside.
After a simple breakfast, he heads to the guild hall to prepare for his apprenticeship ceremony.
Those below level 3 formation master aren't able to enjoy such treatment. Even so, it is still a great honor to appear before everyone in the guild. It is just like how many people are envious of Zhang Xuan for being able to obtain a doctorate in his previous life.
At eight in the morning, the grand ceremony begins. Zhang Xing sits in the first row of the hall. Behind him, the Black Treasure Four Dragons look around to watch the commotion.
After a series of formalities, Guild Leader Bond starts to give an important speech.
"Master Zhang Xing is the youngest in the history of our branch …"
"I hereby award him with the rank 3 formation master emblem!"
The entire hall bursts into applause. Zhang Xing goes up the stage to accept the honor!
When Zhang Xing puts on the emblem and is about to give his speech, a discordant voice sounds from below.
"Hmph!
To have such achievements at such a young age, it is truly an eye-opener. I wonder if he is the real deal. "
After which, a young man stands up.
With a face full of disdain, he displays the rank 3 formation master emblem in his hand.
"I am also a rank 3 formation master. Master Zhang, do you dare to spar with me?"
Guild Leader Bond frowns. This young man is unfamiliar, he isn't from their guild. Turning his head to look at the two sides, the other formation masters also shake their heads.
In the guild, if anyone is unconvinced, they can issue a challenge and the challenged party can't reject it.
Especially in such an occasion, he believes that every formation master will accept it. This concerns their reputation, so they have no choice but to accept it.
Seeing that there is a commotion to watch, the hundred over formation masters get excited.
"Who is this young man?
He is quite arrogant! "
"I don't recognize him, but he seems to be around twenty-one or twenty-two years old. His strength shouldn't be underestimated."
"Indeed, he is also a rank 3 formation master. I wonder who is stronger between him and Zhang shi!"
"…"
Receiving the attention of the crowd, the young man glances at Zhang Xing in disdain. At the same time, he takes out a bronze token.
"Who is the guild leader here?"
Seeing the token, Bond's expression turns cold and he hurriedly stands up.
"I didn't know that the Patrol Inspector would be here personally. Please forgive me for not welcoming you!
Please forgive me! "
"What?
Patrol Inspector? "
Other than Zhang Xing and the others, everyone's expression changed. Why was the Patrol Inspector suddenly here?
When the Patrol Envoys went to the countryside, the cows and horses changed color and the dogs jumped!
There were too many branches all over the Holy Dragon Continent. In order to make it easier to manage, this department was specially set up.
Every Patrol Inspector was a trusted aide of the Headquarters' upper echelons, and they held the power of life and death.
"Lord Patrol Inspector, I am the branch president, Bond. May I know your name?"
Bond came up quickly and bowed respectfully.
"My name is William Tonnies."
After a glance, Tonnies ignored Bond and went straight to the stage.
Bond didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction and followed him closely.
At the same time, his heart trembled. Among the ten great elders of the headquarters, there was a person called William. This was definitely a junior of their family, so they couldn't neglect him.
The other array masters on the stage also stood respectfully to the side, their hearts filled with fear.
Tonnies clasped his hands behind his back and looked at the respectful faces of the people on the stage.
"I, the Patrol Envoy, have the right to test anyone here. Since Master Zhang is so talented, I will test you on the spot."
"I am curious as to how a seven-year-old child managed to advance from apprentice all the way to rank 3 so smoothly."
"If the test isn't accurate, there will be a need to investigate this branch!"
Tonnies sneered coldly. He was just worried that he wouldn't have an excuse to deal with these country bumpkins. Now that he met them, his luck wasn't bad. He could earn a huge sum of money.
