The hall master widened his eyes in shock as he stared at the ring.
A moment later, agitation surfaced on his face.
"Not bad, not bad. This is the token of Elder Cang Long. I was fortunate enough to have seen it in the records of the headquarters."
"To think that our vice hall master, a Sage from eight hundred years ago, would have left behind his heritage."
"The heavens are indeed fair..."
The First Elder and the others stopped their commotion as they stared at Ming Yuezhao with envy and hatred.
That foreign lad sure was lucky to have obtained such a great heritage. There was really no one to blame for this.
Now that the First Elder and Second Elder are dead, what should we do?
Panic began to spread.
It was impossible for them not to panic. With the fall of the great tree, the macaques had no place to shelter themselves from the elements.
After a moment of agitation, the hall master's spirits were lifted. Firstly, there was finally someone to take over his position, so he could leave happily.
Secondly, the successor had something to do with it. Ming Yuezhao had obtained Elder Cang Long's heritage, and it would be a meritorious deed for him to be promoted.
His gaze toward Ming Yuezhao was exceptionally bright.
"According to the rules, whoever obtains the heritage is qualified to become the hall master. Ming Yuezhao isn't an outsider either. If not for some reason, his father should have been the one to take over my position."
"I didn't expect that after ten years, his son would become the successor. The cycle of the heavens, the affairs of the world are unpredictable!"
"I hereby announce that Ming Yuezhao is officially the new hall master of the Wasteland Branch of the Poison Hall!"
"Tu Te will be the First Elder, and he will assist the new hall master in handling important matters."
"Zhang Xing..."
Just as the hall master was hesitating over which position to bestow upon him, Zhang Xing spoke up.
"Hall Master, I am not a disciple of the Poison Hall. I am only here to take the poison master examination, so there's no need for you to bestow me anything."
The hall master nodded. This was precisely what he was worried about. If he didn't bestow him anything, it would seem as though the Poison Hall was stingy. After all, Zhang Xing had done a meritorious deed.
Thus, he took out a three cun long black token and passed it to Zhang Xing. "With this, you will be able to enjoy more benefits in the Poison Hall branch on the Master Teacher Continent."
After receiving the token, Zhang Xing expressed his gratitude and threw it into the Space without paying much attention to it.
Next was the inauguration ceremony, which was not very grand. The conditions here were limited, so all the procedures were simplified to the extreme.
Gathering all of the disciples of the Poison Hall, Zhang Xuan spoke a bunch of nonsense before organizing a grand banquet. Everyone was overjoyed to see that their lives had improved a little.
After finishing his meal, the old hall master immediately set off for the Poison Hall headquarters to report in.
It was time for him to settle the score!
The current Grand Elder, Tut, immediately began a great purge. He purged all the hardcore supporters of Tague and Wiya from the important departments.
Those who refused to submit and still wanted to resist were immediately removed from their posts and locked up in prison to reflect on their actions. After a period of peace, whether they would be killed or released would depend on their mood.
Zhang Xing was shocked when the honest Tut took his revenge after being suppressed for so long.
His methods were direct and ruthless. He killed a group of people, suppressed another group of people, and roped in another group of people to intimidate everyone.
In an instant, he established absolute prestige, and everyone who saw him respectfully addressed him as Great Elder.
Bright Moon Reflection and Zhang Xing had a deep discussion in a secret chamber. He told Zhang Xing about the war eight hundred years ago that Elder Cang Long had told him.
Zhang Xing also told him a little about the Dark Army and the Radiant Saint Hall.
Such a huge secret was only known to a handful of people at the moment. Their strength was limited, so they were unable to play a decisive role in the war.
Zhang Xing had no idea whether the upper echelons of the various guilds would believe him or not, but he didn't have the time to go around telling them. If he could obtain the support of the Radiant Saint Hall, he would be able to maintain the Great Radiance Formation for a period of time.
