After Yan Hara left, Yuan returned to training his demon sealing techniques, increasing many mastery levels for a couple of the weaker techniques, but he could not stop thinking about the Demon Emperor and the Divine Paragon's reason for letting it escape.
Even though he knew it was because the Divine Paragon wanted to fight the Ancient, he still couldn't fathom such a reasoning.
Why would the Divine Paragon risk having the demons rule the Nine Heavens again just so he could have a fight with an Ancient? Just because he is a selfish person who doesn't care about the lives of others? But the Divine Paragon wouldn't have started hunting demons in the first place if that was the case. It didn't make sense to Yuan no matter how much he pondered about it.
'I will have my answers once I defeat the fourth floor of the Demon Sealing Pagoda, but that is easier said than done…' Yuan sighed inwardly.
Even with his ridiculous talent, such a goal seemed unfathomably distant.
Unfortunately, there was nothing he could do for now except to practice.
Yuan would increase the mastery level of multiple demon sealing techniques on that day, but they were all low-ranking techniques. He wanted to completely master all the weaker techniques before focusing on the stronger ones.
At the end of the day, Yuan began making his way outside the Grand Library, but he stopped right before the exit, mostly because he was forced to stop, as there was a crowd of people that blocked the path there.
"What's going on?" Yuan asked one of the people closest to him.
"I'm not exactly sure what happened, but there are people fighting at the entrance, blocking everyone."
Yuan raised his eyebrows. Since he couldn't see the situation with his bare eyes, he decided to use his divine sense to look at the situation, and sure enough, he could see a large group of people blocking the path.
There appeared to be two sides in this large group. One of them belonged to the Demon Sealing Clan while the other group was from the Demon Sealing Grotto.
"Because of your Demon Sealing Clan's Leader's incompetence, three of our Master Demon Sealers are dead!"
"Your Grand Elder was there as well! You cannot put all the blame on us!"
"Screw you! We all know the tournament was a malicious plot by the Demon Sealing Clan to hurt our clan! Why else would they suddenly use a Demon Emperor when all previous tournaments used Demon Generals and lower ranking demons?!"
Once Yuan overheard these people arguing with each other, he immediately understood the context and why they were fighting.
Soon, the verbal argument between these two groups escalated, turning into a full fight.
The spectators there quickly scattered to give them room.
Unfortunately, most of the lecturers in the Grand Library were absent due to the same important meeting Yan Hara was attending, so there was basically nobody to stop the fighting between these two groups.
Furthermore, the fight grew bigger because the other demon sealers would join in to assist their own companions.
Very soon, half of the people within the Grand Library were fighting.
