 Does King make other snakes stressed?

We have 1 ball python, 3 corn snakes, and 1 garter snake(all housed separately), my husband wants a Mexican Black King Snake, which would of course have a quarantine period and be housed separate from all the others but I have been told that if you have kings they need to be in a separate room from other snakes or just picking up their scent can make the others stressed because kings kill other snakes, is this true it will stress them?

I have two kings in a rack with corns, a milk and rat snakes. I don’t see any stress with mine. They all eat very well, and seem to be acting normally. I have my 3 other kings in another room near eachother, and I don’t see any problem there, either.

My two kings are in the same room as my red tail boa. No problems at all.
