"The mysterious leads to the true, so he can also be called the True Martial Great Emperor."
"The mysterious is black, and the Black Emperor is Emperor Zhuanxu. He severed the communication between heaven and earth and separated men from gods, thus bringing about the current prosperity of our age. The Lord of Bing holds the merit of Emperor Zhuanxu, reuniting the northern tribes and bringing the kindred of Huaxia back into a single lineage. Therefore, this old man believes he should be the True Martial Great Emperor!" The head of the Confucian School clan continued to draw upon ancient texts to attribute Yanyan's achievements to the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.
The Confucian School acknowledged that Yanyan possessed the merit of Zhuanxu, and thus initially hoped he would inherit Emperor Zhuanxu's imperial title. However, considering the convention of using taboo names for emperors, they felt the Black Emperor was somewhat unsuitable.
