Upon returning to the Martial Academy, Pei Xuanjing did not expect that he would no longer be able to maintain his anonymity. The events of tonight’s assassination attempt have led to his name being spoken by various factions.
Initially, when Pei Xuanjing first arrived in Tiandu, despite his young age of twenty-two, he was a Third-grade Martial Artist and master which drew attention from various factions.
However, as Pei Xuanjing secluded himself within the academy for half a year, maintaining a low profile, many forces overlooked him, some even thought that he might be stabilizing his foundation because he had advanced too early.
This is why the target of this ambush was Pei Xuanjing, as other masters belonging to the Martial Academy have immersed themselves within the Third-grade Martial Artist realm for years, hence Pei Xuanjing became the soft target.
That was exactly what Gu Ji had warned him about: if one is too low-profile, it is easy to be treated as a pushover.
This time, Pei Xuanjing stood out, slaying the infamous MO Bei Trio, and even when facing interference from the Military Equipment Department, he showed decisiveness and momentum, letting everyone know he was not one to be bullied, but a tough nut to crack.
Thus, after this battle, Pei Xuanjing has gained a resounding reputation.
At the very least, nobody would consider him a soft target in the future, and he would be recognized by all factions as a true member of the Tiandu circle, capable of making his own declarations. Of course, Pei Xuanjing was unaware of all these, as these would only gradually reveal themselves.
After seeing Pang Hong return, he retreated to his room.
He meditated, replaying the recent events in his mind, reviewing his actions and identifying what needed improvement and what he did well.
