Chapter 24: First Heard of Fourth Master_1

Zhao Yan had clearly been here many times before. She confidently led the way and within five minutes, Huang An found himself standing before an open yard gate.

Looking into the yard, Huang An saw three or four warriors lined up. It suddenly occurred to him that this was the Treasury of Medicines set up by the court within Feng'an County.

All treasured medicines within Feng'an County originated from this place, controlled by Guo Silang, the Fourth Master, who held the post of clerk in the city of Feng'an County.

As Senior Sister Zhao told him on the road, martial artists were stringently regulated by the Daming Dynasty. The court kept a tight control on cultivation resources, which allowed them to supervise the martial arts practitioners.

Only those recognized as masters in the Bronze Realm by the court were entitled to purchase these resources for cultivation—the treasured medicines.

Of course, the disciples could do so in the name of their masters, as well.
