Seeing the attitude of the two men, Pei Xuanjing was not surprised. One could say, their reactions were all within his expectations.
In his original world, many inherited traditions were held in tight gatekeeping, let alone passing on their unique skills to everyone. Some people would rather let their unique skills become lost than pass them on to someone they deem unworthy.
Pei Xuanjing didn't judge any of it because, in his previous life, he didn't feel qualified to pass judgment on these matters.
However, in this world, he had the qualifications and the power to carry out this matter.
Moreover, it involved his objective.
"Are both of you placing such a high importance on exclusivity?" Pei Xuanjing asked calmly.
Zhao Baiyang furrowed his brow, "It's not my exclusivity, but it has been a tradition since ancient times not to casually pass down our practices. How can one simply give them out recklessly?"
