Chapter 54: Drastic Changes
A few days later, the three returned to Blazing Academy.
However, Blazing Academy had obviously undergone significant changes. There seemed to be fewer students in Blazing Academy than before. The academy did not seem as peaceful and tranquil as before, but rather more impatient.
The three came to the dean's office, and the deans Huo Tianchen and Huo Lie were there. The two were not as calm as before, and seemed to be under a lot of pressure recently.
The dean asked, "How have you three been practicing in the Undying Volcano recently? What have you gained?"
Huo Wu smiled and said, "Grandpa, we have found the location of the Divine Fire Sect." Then the three described the situation in the Divine Fire Sect. At the same time, the three also talked about their recent practice. The dean seemed very happy to see that the three had broken through to the Soul Saint realm.
Huo Wushuang asked, "Grandpa, what happened recently? Why do I feel like something's wrong at school?"
Hearing this, the dean's face grew a little serious. He said, "Something big has happened in the Soul Master world. Both the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan have been in trouble."
A month ago, a mysterious force attacked the two major sects, and all members of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan were killed, including their leader, Yu Yuanzhen. Although the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was not destroyed, it suffered heavy losses.
More than two-thirds of the sect's disciples died, and the sect was completely destroyed. Now the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has relocated to Tiandou City.
"The entire Soul Master world is in panic, and many students have been recalled by their families. A number of students have also chosen to graduate early."
Xiao Fei thought for a moment and said, "Dean, what is the current attitude of the Heaven Dou Empire and the Spirit Hall?"
"Both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Spirit Hall have issued statements condemning the murderer. However, the two sides have not completely torn their relations. Everyone in the Soul Master world knows that this incident was probably caused by the Spirit Hall. The Spirit Hall has been much more cautious recently, but the Heaven Dou Empire has been very active recently."
"The Spirit Hall announced that since the spirit master world is too dangerous, it recommends that spirit masters go to live in Spirit City, which can ensure the absolute safety of all personnel. The Tiandou Empire also summoned all spirit masters to Tiandou City."
"Since the original spirit masters in the Tiandou Empire were relatively weak, they increased their recruitment efforts and offered very good treatment. They even issued a statement hoping that all spirit master academies would move to Tiandou City."
After saying this, the dean looked at Xiaofei and said, "Xiaofei, what do you think we should do now? Should we really move to Tiandou City? "Go?"
Xiao Fei thought for a moment, then shook his head. "Given the Spirit Hall's strength, the price to annihilate the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan would undoubtedly be enormous."
The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect boasts Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, plus Ning Fengzhi, the world's number one support spirit master.
"The Spirit Hall would have to mobilize at least ten thousand elite spirit masters and send at least four Titled Douluos to defeat the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Similarly, to completely annihilate the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, over eight thousand elite spirit masters and three or more Titled Douluos would be required."
"However, the Spirit Hall launched such a large-scale attack, yet the Heaven Dou Empire and the two major sects were completely unaware of it. This is especially true of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, which is only a few hundred kilometers away."
"The Heaven Dou Empire shows no signs of discovery or support, which suggests serious internal problems within the empire. If we rashly move into Heaven Dou City, Blazing Fire Academy might become a vassal of the imperial family. If anything goes wrong, we'd be the first to be cannon fodder."
The dean pondered, feeling that neither advancing nor retreating was an option. Whether it is the Spirit Hall or the Heaven Dou Empire, they cannot afford to offend. In fact, in this sensitive era, if you are not careful, you will be attacked by both forces.
The dean asked gravely, "Then what should we do?"
Xiao Fei thought carefully, gritted his teeth and said, "Independence. If we want to survive, we must be independent."
The dean asked curiously, "Then how can we be independent? You know, if we don't rely on either side, we may become a target for both sides."
Xiao Fei said leisurely, Iremember that the land surrounding our Blazing Academy is our own, and it belongs entirely to us.
We can build an Elemental City next to the original Blazing City and invite Tianshui Academy and Shenfeng Academy to move in. The three of us will jointly establish an Elemental Academy.
The Elemental Academy will issue a statement that it will only be responsible for teaching and educating students. The academy will not interfere in the recruitment of students or their future destinations after graduation.
The school rules will also be re-established. All students are equal within the academy, and there must be no power struggles. Whether they are from the Heaven Dou Empire or the Spirit Hall, they can all enroll.
"In this way, there will be a Titled Douluo, nearly ten Soul Douluos, and dozens of Soul Saints in the Element Academy. No force, no matter which side, will dare to provoke them easily."
The dean thought about it seriously and said, "Okay, let's do it. I will contact Tianshui Academy and Shenfeng Academy as soon as possible. They have been under a lot of pressure recently."
So, Dean Huo Tianchen met privately with the deans of Shenfeng and Tianshui, told the two deans his intention, and the three deans each communicated some of their own ideas and details.
A week later, the three academies jointly issued a statement: "Blazing Fire Academy, Divine Wind Academy, and Tianshui Academy have merged to establish Element City, approximately 100 kilometers north of Blazing Fire Academy (Element City is similarly located to all three academies).
The three academies will subsequently be affiliated with Element Academy, which will admit anyone who meets the admission requirements.
The academies will be divided into Blazing Fire, Tianshui, and Divine Wind departments, with the former deans of each department serving as department heads." "
Upon the establishment of Element Academy, Huo Tianchen will serve as dean, while Feng Xuan, the former dean of Divine Wind Academy, and Liu Ruyan, the former dean of Tianshui Academy, will serve as vice deans.
Each department will have independent teaching, with external affairs decided by a vote of the three deans. The deanship will rotate, with each term lasting ten years."
"The academy will have no requirements regarding student background; all are welcome to enroll. After graduation, the academy will not interfere with students' futures."
The announcement from Element Academy shocked the world. Originally, Divine Wind, Blazing, and Tianshui were among the top five academies in the Heaven Dou Empire.
With their merger, they instantly became the second-largest spirit master academy on the continent, second only to the Spirit Hall's Advanced Spirit Master Academy.
