You could look for projects and find something complicated, but if it's just to learn and play with,
you make a real time control loop of code on every microcontroller, and every subroutine it runs comes from that.
That way, it never gets stuck in a loop.  A response from a non-master node can never block anything by the master,
so a response can just be to set some flag, but other wise initiate nothing and
wait for the master program to read that flag and go into action.

What kind of network communication are you using?
