Expansions and Paperwork caused by Expansion
As the elders of the alchemy hall got busy with their preparation for changing the location of the alchemy pavilion, while at the same time also making it bigger so it could fit the increasingly large number of disciples joining the alchemy hall, the sect's formation masters had run into a similar problem, as they had also been looking towards somewhere to expand to and establish themselves either on the Seventh Star Peak or somewhere else within the Shattered Star Peaks.
Of course, because of the difference in size between the Alchemy Hall and the Formation Hall that the formation masters of the sect used and the fact that there were far less disciples interested in the art of formations compared to those interested in alchemy, the expansion ideas of these elders weren't at the level of taking over an entire peak for themselves like the elders of the alchemy hall were planning to do.
