Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor Chapter 230: Spirit of the Epoch (2)

All the teachers were surprised by the sudden outburst of the headmaster. Usually, Bai Han always had a calm and ethereal temperament to him; he always remained calm in every situation. So why was he acting in such a way?

"Headmaster, what's wrong? Did something happen?" asked one of the teachers.

Bai Hai then took a deep breath to calm himself down before explaining: "I just calculated the secrets of Heaven and discovered that the Qi Luck of our entire Academy has been reduced by 5%!"

All the teachers gasped out loud after hearing this. With how powerful the Qi Luck of the Emperor Enlightening Academy is, even if 0.1% is lost, it is a sign for concern. A 1% lost would make the Academy on the highest alert.

But now, 5% is gone and no one even noticed it happening.

After thinking about this, all the teachers had an ugly looked on their faces as they also began to calculate the Qi Luck of the Academy; and they all came to the same conclusion as BaI Han,

Now, they started wondering what was going on.

Bai Han then started to mobilize the Wisdom Eye, which is the intelligence agency of the Academy--similar to the Dao Opening Sect's Shadow.

A few days later. In a secret room, Bai Han and all the upper echelons of the Academy were reading a report of the current situation of the world; it was then that they learned that rumors of them despising Professionals have been spread throughout all over the Myriad Emperor World.

By now, the majority of Alchemist, Talisman Maker, Array Master and Refiners in the entire world have heard about these rumors. Then, they all developed a negative view of the Emperor Enlightening Academy, hence the result of the dramatic decrease in the sect's Qi Luck.

"What do we do now?" asked one teacher with a look of worry in his face.

He knew well how much power and influence these Professionals have in this world. There is a reason they are considered very n.o.ble and have high status in this world--especially Alchemists.

There are no cultivators that will not need the help of pills in his life. Whether it is breakthrough cultivation realm, increase strength or talent, or even save their life: all cultivators will need the help of an Alchemist at one point or another.

"Maybe things are not as bad as we imagine," replied one female teacher. "Our Academy's reputation has been positive for countless years. As long as we announce our stand on the matter, things should go back to normal--or at least, not further escalate."

Many teachers calmed down and nodded in agreement with us. However, some of the more cunning ones knew that things were not so simple.

"Your words may have been right if this was actually an accident, however, given how fast this news traveled around the world, do you think that this was a coincidence?"

"You mean someone is purposely attacking us? But who dares go against our Academy?"

"Isn't it obvious?" suddenly said headmaster Bai Han. "Who did we have any conflict with in the last few years?"

"Headmaster, you mean, Sacred Son w.a.n.g Wei?" asked one teacher with an incredible look on his face. Then, he suddenly thought of Yan Liling' strange behavior during the opening ceremony.

"Are you saying that he planned the whole thing more than ten years ago?"

Bai Han just nodded calmly, however his clenched hands inside his robe betrayed his actual mood.

"So what do we do now?" asked one teacher.

"All we can do now is to announce to the world our stand on the matter, then try to prevent any further rumor from spreading. Luckily for us, many of the world's cultivators are currently watching the [Heaven Chosen Selection Trial], we can talk to them directly."

All the teachers nodded, then they proceeded to plan out their response.

Meanwhile, inside Yan Chen's Small World, more than 100,000 meters deep in an ocean, w.a.n.g Wei opened his eyes, then with great effort, took out a talisman from his s.p.a.ce ring.

"Wei'er, the Academy have just noticed our actions and are preparing to deal with the situation," said Sect Master w.a.n.g Tian.

"How long has pa.s.sed?" asked w.a.n.g Wei through Divine Sense.

"10 years."

"Later than expected. It seemed that mother's plan to hide the secrets of Heaven and Earth in order to prevent the Academy from noticing the change in their Qi Luck worked wonderfully," replied w.a.n.g Wei.

"After all, you did inherit your cunning nature from her."

"Then, let's proceed with the second step of the plan: continue to use public opinions to ruin their Academy's Qi Luck. However, beware father, the enemy can also use the same tactic against us."

"I know, but you do not need to worry. In the past years, we have used all the information you told us about how to use public opinion and developed counter-defense against them."

"That's good," replied w.a.n.g Wei, then he cut the communication. He looked in the direction of the Academy, sneered before closing his eyes to continue cultivating.

Although he knew that this method could only blow a small blow to the Academy, this was just the beginning of his plan.

So, under the Dao Opening Sect's order, countless agents started to spread more terrible news about the Emperor Enlightening Academy throughout the world; this time, the news was not only focused on the Professionals, but all the terrible things that the Academy has done.

Well, many of these things were in fact false, but w.a.n.g Wei did not care about such a thing. On top of that, w.a.n.g Wei also focused not just among cultivators, but also the common people.

All the Shadow Agents of the Sect started to leave flyers everywhere in the world, in every city, every dynasty in every Domain, and all 5 continents. Even mortal cities and dynasties were not spared.

These flyers were refined to be able to transmit the information directly into a person's mind. So, even if the majority of the mortal population could not read or write, as long as they picked up a flyer, the information about all the terrible things that the Academy did would be planted in their minds.

Of course w.a.n.g Wei did not just boringly narrate the crimes of the Academy, but provided 'evidence'. For example recordings of the terrible things that both teachers and students did.

Of course a lot of these recordings were false, and many cultivators were aware of this, but they did not say anything. Obviously they realized that a powerful force was attacking the Academy, and they did not want to partic.i.p.ate in the confrontation of these big factions.

Of course the Dao Opening Sect did not do any of this on their own, but united with many other powerful Emperor Lineages to facilitate this action. As for the reason these factions decided to work together, it was because w.a.n.g Wei used benefit to tie them together.

Meanwhile, the Emperor Enlightening Academy learned about the current situation going on around the world, and they acted very swiftly. Unfortunately, they could not face so many Emperor Lineages attacking them together.

So, headmaster Bai Han rallied the Academy's Allies to prevent the spread of these rumors to reach the Domains that they and their allies controlled. It did not change the fact that in just a few days, another 3% of their Qi Luck was gone, and the declining process did not seem to be stopping.

Knowing that things were urgent, Bai Han decided to make a public announcement to the people still watching the Tournament.

So, the majority of cultivators were aware of the current situation of the world, so they were not that surprised when they saw Headmaster Bai Han appearing in front of them to make a speech.

"Fellow Cultivators all over the world, I would like to take this opportunity to say a few words. I know that there are many terrible rumors going around the world about the Academy. But I would like to say…"

His words stopped midway as he realized that something had gone wrong. The Formation that should be broadcasting his speech suddenly changed and started broadcasting something else.

It was the image of one the upper echelon of the Academy; he was sitting in a private room with many gourds around, surrounded by many beautiful women. His rosy face indicated his inebriated state of mind, then he started talking.

Bai Han felt that something was wrong, so he ordered through Divine Sense for someone to shut down the formation, but it was no use; it was as if the formation was no longer under the Academy's control.

"Haha, beauty, you should have seen the face of those d.a.m.n Alchemists when the headmaster decided to remove their spots. All their arrogance and smug look was completely gone; it was as if someone spit in their mouth.

"Haha, I wish I could have seen that d.a.m.n Fu Caiyu's face after hearing that news. You know, a few years ago, I went to beg him for a Yang Exorcist Pill to save my wife that was infected by Nine Nether Yin Qi after a visit to the Forbidden Land, but he refused me.

"What made me so angry was the fact that he had just refine the pill in front of me not long ago. But he looked me straight in the face and said that he did not have any.

"Not long after that, I lost my beloved wife. Well, it doesn't matter now since I had plenty of fun with Fu Caiyu's wife; she was a true wild lady in the bedroom."
