    Well

    This is definitely where our mc belongs. A place where people are scheming each other everyday.... in any case why go with their cordiality pretense of being civil by poisoning each other? In any case i prefer it this way, explaining how our mc poisons the opponent might take a couple chapters. This way things are solved in a few paragraphs.

    The problem is that this will lead to wasting several chapters on him proving that he has the mentality of a poison master, most likely with him having to slap several dozen faces in the process.

    Ask Google. I'm fairly certain any post that answers that question directly will be moderated.

    I’m sick of Chinese novels being homophobic.

    "A Saint 1-dan advanced stage 6-star master teacher?" Is it the TL that's constantly making this mistake or the author?

    "Poison masters spent their days alongside poison, and to concoct potent poisons, they might sometimes opt to try the poisons out of themselves... Putting aside changing one's sexual orientation, it wouldn't be impossible for one to fall in love with spirit beasts, saint beasts, trees, or even rocks and plants." Wow. This is offensive on a whole new level. I wonder if the author even understands just how unspeakably offensive and homophobic this is.

    "If the other party intended to cause him trouble, he didn't mind releasing the Violetleaf King and stir up a huge mess within the Poison Hall." Why the f' would he do that? He can easily handle the situation with his own power. Bringing out a demon would be like shooting himself in the head because he was having a bad hair day and couldn't be bothered to reach the extra 2cm for the hair gel :/

    Why did he leave his body unguarded? At bare minimum, he should have hid himself in the anthive and let his clone out to cultivate in his place.

    Also, why is he even letting his soul out? It's been made abundantly clear that there are tons of saint 1+ dan experts around. At least one of them will have studied the soul in order to figure out how to poison it, especially among the seven star poison masters who likely need to understand such things in order to advance. The place he's heading is the most popular place on the island. The odds of running into someone that can see him are thus, quite high.

    Honestly, if he'd just taken down that last person with poison, then he'd already be qualified as a six star poison master by the rules of the island and could directly enter the compendium without issue.
    Not just CN sadly. It's basically the norm across Asia as far as I can tell, and I don't think it's that uncommon in the West either.

    It frustrates me to no end. Everyone has a 5% of being born LGBT (more if you aren’t the first born and even more if you are a boy) and all these novels that I love dearly just like to shit on them and treat them as something less than a rabid animal. It’s so disgusting and a turn off. I hope CC or Er Gen don’t do it.

    "Do my words mean nothing to you?"
    "No! Of course not."
    Wow, that's a gutsy stance to take. I wonder how the vice-hall master managed to refrain from killing such an insolent person when he was already so angry about his disciple not being allowed to bully an honored guest.

    And this is why he shouldn't have left his body behind without his soul when he had a perfectly good clone that could have stayed there instead, and a perfectly good extra-dimensional space to place his body in.

    I wonder what excuse the MC will give when he comes back to find that his body has pummeled the entire island's leadership into meat paste.

    "It is no wonder why that fellow is so arrogant. He must have consumed the antidote beforehand!" How? It's not like he'd have any clue what the antidote was when he'd never even heard of the poison before.

    Hmm, I wonder if Elder Xu is about to become Guild Master Xu... assuming the MC declines the position that is.

    C999: "When had their Poison Hall suffered such great grievances?" Half of this chapter was them realizing that he was acting purely in self-defense and that he did only as much damage as others were trying to do to him. In what way is this the PH suffering any sort of grievance? You go to murder a man, you should fully expect that man to try to murder you back. That's just common sense, especially in a world like the one they live. Even more so on the island that they live on. Heck, given their attitude of poisoning each other to death, or various fates worse than death, being no big deal, they're basically acting like whiner babies at this point, even by their own standards.

    C1003: One look at the title, and I already don't want to keep reading.

    And half way though the chapter I've decided to start skipping forward until this nonsense is done with. It's not even funny. It's just pathetic to the point of being insulting.

    C1005: "Our founder... is a woman?" Why is this a surprise? It was clearly stated hundreds of chapters ago when poison masters where first introduced. It's common knowledge even in a backwaters place like the one the MC came from. Why would these idiots not know?

    C1006: I'm struggling hard at this point to not drop the series altogether. I really hope that the author doesn't decide to copy this plotline again in the future.

    It really is tough to keep going with this. Every new arc is just a different version of an older one with just some numbers or items changed around

    Honestly, I'd prefer yet another rehash of an old arc to this one. I really, truly hate it.

    But this is a rehash of an old arc already. It was how he did it the first time going to a poison hall except instead of whatever specialist he now is pretending to be a chick (Well I mean he doesn't know). I saw a comment in another place saying that this was the worst arc and I have to agree with it. Person was talking about how forced this all felt

    Back then, he was pretending to be an unspecified senior of the poison hall. Here, he's pretending to be the founder of the poison hall. There's a fairly massive difference there. Though, even the last poison hall arc was a low point in the story. It just wasn't nearly as low as this.

    C1008: Yeah, I figured he'd pass the "founder" identity on to her. I do have to wonder why the author is getting rid of her so quickly though. Right now, she's his best hope for curing his illness. Or is he planning on accompanying her to the poison hall? After she's cured, she can probably cure him without much effort. Though, if he did that, then he'd miss his appointment with the other master teachers, which he doesn't seem likely to do.

    C1009: "With such an identity protecting her, even the incumbent hall master would not dare touch her!" He's an idiot if he believes that.

    "Zhang Xuan was impervious to all poison" I think the author may have forgotten what's killing the MC right now.

    Wouldn't her soul utterly destroy his soul fragment just by being near it?

    C1011: At this rate, they might have to shut down this branch of the PH...

    C1012: Shouldn't he notify the MTP so that they can send stronger people? I don't think anyone in the current party could handle a saint 5 dan otherworldy demon.

    Why doesn't it occur to him that he could blackmail the MC? Or, if he's too fearful to do that, just turn him into the MTP as a poison master for the sake of revenge without even bothering with blackmail?

    C1013: Why is he not telling them about the saint 5 dan demon that he knows they'll be fighting in the very near future? Or the fact that there will probably be multiple saint 4-5 dan demons with him?

    Oh great. Yet another ignorant face to slap. I hope it at least feels less contrived than the last supposed leader of this expedition's clash with him.

    C1014: It occurs to me that the founder of the Poison Hall was a contemporary of Kong shi. That being the case, how were there any 8+ star poison masters around to create the Innate Fetal Poison to feed to his mother before he was even born? Does the Poison Hall predate Kong-shi by several centuries or something? If so, why weren't they snuffed out by the demons? And how did they reach sainthood (as would be required for an 8 star poison) when Kong-shi was the one that paved the path to that domain for humanity. Was the founder not human?

    C1016: "Yet, without even taking a look at the formation, you are saying that you are confident of success?" No, that's not what he said. What he said was that he wouldn't make a move until he was confident, which is the exact same stance that he and his teacher are taking. Why can't any of these antagonists at least have two brain cells to rub together?

    "isn't because you aren't working hard enough but because you are fools!" Why is he being so harsh with them? Normally, it takes a lot more to rile him up to point that he starts being such an a**hole to people.

    "It is not something that someone who has just barely gotten a glimpse of it should speak lightly about!" This is highly insulting to every six star formation master in the world. I wonder how he'd react if an 8-star formations master said the same thing about him? On the inside I mean. I'm sure he's too craven to do anything but agree on the outside.

    Couldn't he just touch any part of the formation and analyze it that way? Or do it in a more roundabout way by compiling a book on the formations they're setting up to support it?

    C1017: Why would he send a student when he's got so many contracted beasts? The anthive queen would be especially great for this. She's got hundreds, if not thousands, of subordinates that she'd happily sacrifice at the drop of a hat.

    C1021: I'm glad to see a new plot line finally, but how did this scheme remain undiscovered for so long? Were the examiners in on it, or were they just so utterly incompetent that they couldn't see the cause of this extremely easy to diagnose problem?

    I wonder if he's going to have this guy upgrade the cauldron in front of everyone.
