Chapter 188: The Storm Exists Wherever I Am, the Heavenly Profound Palace Will Grant Storm Calming (1)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Great Zhao Dynasty had moved south for 500 years. Although the territory they ruled had changed, the system that had always been followed had not changed much.

Ever since the Founding Ancestor of the Great Zhao Dynasty ended the situation of the warlords separating the Central Plains for hundreds of years, the Great Zhao Dynasty pursued the philosophy of using literature to support the country and implemented the basic national policy of using the right language to suppress martial arts.

Although the Literary Department and the Martial Temple were on opposite sides, the dynasty was obviously more biased towards the Literary Department. In the Great Zhao Dynasty, the status of military officials and generals was far inferior to that of civil officials.

Under such a culture of promoting literature and suppressing martial arts, there were even phenomena like not exchanging literature for martial arts. The prosperity of the Imperial Examination made many cultivation geniuses even more eager to become civil officials, and no one cared about martial arts positions.

The status of those martial aristocratic families became more and more awkward under this national policy.

In the army, there were even supervisors, who were appointed from civil officials and eunuchs. The purpose was to monitor the military officials and generals.

Under such circumstances, the Literary Department and the Martial Temple became even more extreme enemies.

Restrictions on generals had always been the consensus of Great Zhao. After all, Founding Ancestor had started as a general and established a huge dynasty.

The current Emperor Zhao knew very well how much of an impact it would have on a country once the generals lost their restrictions and powerful generals held military power.

In the Heavenly Profound Palace, the atmosphere had long become tense and murderous.

When the Second Headmaster of the Literary Department returned, many people were surprised. What was even more surprising was that when the Second Headmaster of the Literary Department, Pang Ji, returned to the Heavenly Profound Palace, the first thing he said was to support Prime Minister Qin’s decision.

For a moment, the atmosphere in front of the Heavenly Profound Palace became extremely strange.

On the Emperor’s throne, Emperor Zhao frowned slightly. His finger was still tapping on the throne.

He looked at Second Headmaster Pang Ji, who had stepped into the Heavenly Profound Palace, and was actually unable to figure out this person’s thoughts. Although Pang Ji was on good terms with Prime Minister Qin, he had never directly supported him like today.

Moreover, Emperor Zhao had heard that An Le had once attracted the rich righteousness of the Literary Monument in front of Prime Minister Qin’s 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑤𝑒𝑏𝓃ℴ𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Residence. This child had a deep relationship with the Literary Department.

Why did Second Headmaster Pang Ji stand up to support Qin Lishi?

Emperor Zhao didn’t say anything else and fell into deep thought. However, after thinking for a while, he figured out the relationship and a smile appeared on his lips.

Di Cang had just put away the Zhao Ancestor’s Dragon Slaying Saber when he could not help but want to pull it out and slash out again.

His beard and hair fluttered as the thorns on his face squirmed. His eyes were like two dazzling suns as he glared at Second Headmaster Pang Ji.

“Old Thief Pang! What are you talking about?!”

“My Martial Temple used the Martial Chief Stone as the martial examination question. What’s wrong with that? How is it unfair?!”

Di Cang berated and questioned angrily.

Second Headmaster Pang Ji lowered his head and said indifferently, “Just as Prime Minister Qin said, An Le can resonate with the Martial Chief Stone that no one else has. He can attract the help of the previous Martial Chiefs. This is unfair. For example, our Literary Department has never taken the Literary Monument as an item for the assessment. Why? It’s because An Le has righteousness. It’s unfair to others to use the Literary Monument as an assessment.”

As soon as the Second Headmaster said this, the anger on Di Cang’s face slowly receded. He narrowed his eyes and let go of the hilt of his saber. “Is this your attitude, or the attitude of the entire Literary Department?” “Zhu Huoxi and Wang Banshan have the same attitude as you?”

Di Cang asked coldly.

Pang Ji sighed softly. “This is my attitude alone. It has nothing to do with the

First Headmaster and Third Headmaster. There are different factions in the Literary Department. Although I’ve been in charge of the Literary Department all these years, I can only represent the faction behind me. However, everything I’ve done is for the Literary Department.”

Di Cang looked deeply at Pang Ji. He suddenly understood why Pang Ji had returned.

It was precisely because An Le pushed the Martial Chief Stone three feet forward that the phantoms of the previous Martial Chiefs on the Martial Chief Stone appeared and danced.

Therefore, this Second Headmaster Pang Ji, who had put in so much effort for the Literary Department, had returned to the Heavenly Profound Palace.

An Le had rejected First Headmaster Zhu Huoxi’s invitation, which meant that he would definitely not join the Literary Department.

Li You’an, who walked the legendary path, had once entered the Literary Department and left it. However, he was at least a student of the Literary Department.

Although Su Zhanxian, who had attracted the righteousness, had also left the Literary Department, he had also displayed his charm in the Literary Department.

Only An Le, who had provoked the righteousness of the Literary Monument, had never joined the Literary Department.

On the other hand, An Le had repeatedly summoned the phantoms of the Martial Chiefs of the past generations on the Martial Chief Stone. If he joined the Martial Temple, it might revive the Martial Temple that was under the Great Zhao Dynasty’s culture of “honoring literature and suppressing martial arts.”

If such a prodigy joined the Martial Temple, it might suppress the Literary Department for 500 years!

With Second Headmaster Pang Ji’s temperament, he naturally did not want to see the downfall of the Literary Department.

Among the three Headmasters of the Literary Department, First Headmaster Zhu Huoxi was focused on research and knowledge. He was focused on learning and was actually not enthusiastic about the clash between the Literary Department and the Martial Temple.

Third Headmaster Wang Banshan had a very different temperament. He had always been upset with the Confucian scholars of the Literary Department for being obsessed with befriending civil and military officials while also being deeply immersed in the prosperous dream of Lin’an Prefecture. Every day, he clamored to reform the Literary Department and split from it.

Only Second Headmaster Pang Ji was dedicated to the Literary Department and was the most orthodox Headmaster of the Literary Department. free webnov el.com

Only Pang Ji was focused on opposing the Martial Temple and caring about the future of the Literary Department.

“I brought the Martial Temple’s Martial Chief Stone as a martial examination. It’s not only to test one’s cultivation level, but also a kind of breakthrough of the examinees’ martial arts limits. This is in itself for fairness..
