The Stone Seal
The opening of the Haoran Academy was proceeding exceptionally smoothly, and had enlisted the Four Sages of Jiulong Island as teachers—an unprecedented and astonishing development.
Beyond inviting celestial scholars as instructors, numerous human instructors joined forces in the earnest pursuit of "teaching, guiding, and enlightening," creating an atmosphere of harmony.
The initial carefully selected apprentices gradually mastered the foundational knowledge of the Tao.
The quality of instruction proved commendable, yielding abundant results.
Unexpectedly, the popularity of the Haoran Academy surpassed expectations, with not only the first batch of apprentices but also attentive observers diligently engaging in the learning process.
These observing apprentices covered their own expenses willingly.
Meanwhile, Deity Wuyun continued his quest for the apparatus to assess spiritual roots. Before long, he returned with a modest stone seal.
