This old man was called Yang Shizhan, and he was a secondary saint.
His family's inherited ultimate art—the Heavenly Origin Divine Body—was known as one of the strongest physical techniques in the Nine Provinces. It was said that when cultivated to the extreme, one could shatter stars with a punch and split the sun and moon with their feet.
200 years ago, countless young heroes had broken through the Yang Family's threshold, wanting to become his disciple.
After Yang Shizhan became a secondary saint, he wasn't like other secondary saints who accepted a large number of disciples and worked hard to expand their influence. He continued to stick to his principles when taking in disciples, choosing quality over quantity.
His education philosophy was that strict teachers produced outstanding students, and filial children were taught by the rod. Therefore, he beat and scolded his students at every turn, displaying the dignity of a teacher.
