After finishing Chen Hao’s meal, Su Yu strolled towards the academy’s residential building to digest.

Before the Civilization assessment, he wanted to visit Liu Wenyan.

He had been in seclusion at home these past few days and hadn’t seen Liu Wenyan for a while, so he also wanted to consult his teacher’s opinion.

…

Residential building.

Even after reaching the sky, Liu Wenyan remained as low-key as ever, still living in the old dormitory building.

Su Yu knocked on the door, but Liu Wenyan, who was reading on the balcony, didn’t get up to open it. Instead, he used his willpower to open the door.

“You did well on the exam this morning,” Liu Wenyan said as soon as he entered the room, followed by, “But breaking through to the ninth level on the spot wasn’t really necessary, and participating in the ninth-level assessment was even a bit risky. If you get injured, you might not be able to participate in the afternoon assessment.”

Liu Wenyan lectured, “You need to learn to make trade-offs and weigh the pros and cons. The morning assessment at the War Academy was actually teaching you how to make trade-offs from beginning to end.”

Su Yu nodded and said, “Teacher, I know. I considered the pros and cons this morning myself. Getting first place is very beneficial to me right now, and even if I can’t participate in the Civilization Academy assessment this afternoon, I still have a chance to retake it.”

“…”

Liu Wenyan paused slightly. What he said made sense.

For top students like Su Yu, there was a chance to try again. He had forgotten about that.

This kid…

Liu Wenyan didn’t know how to evaluate him. He chuckled and exhaled, saying, “Just understand. If you’re not preparing for the afternoon assessment, what are you doing here?”

“I wanted to ask the teacher… if I need to expose two divine runes to get first place this afternoon, is it necessary to do so?”

Liu Wenyan pondered for a moment and slowly said, “Just for the sake of getting first place, there’s no need. Look at the situation on the ground and your own thoughts. You’re still young, don’t lose your edge!”

“I wanted to suppress you a bit, but I’m also thinking, you’re only 18 after all. If you can get first place now but get suppressed by someone, your energy and spirit might be affected, and it’s not impossible for you to become depressed and never recover…”

Liu Wenyan said a few words and laughed, “Decide for yourself! If you really feel aggrieved and it’s necessary, then do it! I’m telling you to hold back, not to make you live a frustrated life…”

“If someone asks about the divine runes…”

Liu Wenyan pondered for a moment and said, “Just say that in the past few months, I gave you five articles of willpower, and you didn’t just learn from reading one of them.”

Su Yu couldn’t help but say, “Teacher, will they believe that?”

Liu Wenyan raised an eyebrow, “Why wouldn’t they believe it? Do they think I can’t produce articles of willpower?”

Old Liu said unhappily, “They’re short-sighted and underestimate the people of the world! Do they think only their Civilization Academy can produce so many articles of willpower? If I wanted to, writing five articles of willpower in a day wouldn’t be difficult!”

Su Yu thought his teacher was bragging, but he had no evidence.

He was also embarrassed to ask Liu Wenyan to write five on the spot for him to see. Since the teacher said so, he would reluctantly take it as true.

The teacher and student chatted for a few words. When Su Yu was about to leave, he thought for a moment and said, “Teacher, they all say that the Civilization Academy is very chaotic internally, and the academy’s higher-ups also know about it. Then why not rectify it? Shouldn’t the academy’s teaching environment be more pure?”

“Rectify?”

Liu Wenyan said with a non-smile, “Why rectify it? This kind of environment is deliberately created, it wasn’t originally like this. Decades ago, the academy was very simple, so more people died and fewer strong people emerged.”

“Su Yu, remember, this is not a peaceful era, but a chaotic world!”

“Drastic measures should be used in chaotic times!”

Liu Wenyan said softly, “The academy is a small melting pot, the heavens and myriad worlds are the real big melting pot. If you can’t survive in the academy, let alone survive in the myriad worlds. The environment of the Civilization Academy may be a bit cruel to newcomers, but it’s also so that you can live better in the future.”

Su Yu didn’t know if he should agree with this statement. He had too little experience and too little knowledge, and he wasn’t qualified to judge these things at the moment.

Nodding, he didn’t say anything, and Su Yu turned and left.

…

Great Xia Civilization Academy.

Bai Feng had just walked out of the research institute with a look of fatigue from lack of sleep, yawning all the way.

After walking a few steps, Bai Feng yawned and said impatiently, “Liu Hong, it’s you again, you idiot. What do you want to say this time?”

Not far away, Liu Hong walked out from behind a tree and said with a smile, “Congratulations, the student you recruited in advance got first place in the Nanyuan War Academy assessment this time.”

“Oh, not bad.”

Bai Feng didn’t take it seriously. Liu Hong smiled again and said, “By the way, the Civilization Academy assessment is about to start, and Wu Qi’s sister is also there.”

Bai Feng ignored him. So what if she was there, what are you telling me for!

“Bai Feng, I’m about to reach the seventh level in the sky soon.”

“Showing off to me?”

Bai Feng raised an eyebrow, “You didn’t even know where you were when I was at the seventh level!”

“…”

Liu Hong wanted to curse. You’ve only been at the seventh level for a few days, what are you showing off for!

“Bai Feng, when I reach the seventh level in the sky, then everyone will be at the same starting point…”

Liu Hong smiled, “There will be a series of turbulent changes in the academy next. Actually, there’s no irreconcilable feud between you and me. How about turning hostility into friendship?”

“No way!”

Bai Feng said disapprovingly, “I don’t even think of you as an enemy, because… you’re not worthy!”

“…”

Liu Hong’s face stiffened, “Are you determined to go against me?”

“You’re really shameless!” Bai Feng said angrily, “Stop trying to flatter yourself, I told you, you’re not worthy!”

“…”

Liu Hong wanted to explode. He wanted to beat this bastard to death, but unfortunately, he couldn’t beat him now. Gritting his teeth, Liu Hong said angrily, “I’m not interested in competing with you for anything, whether it’s a spot or the evaluation of a formal researcher, including the research institute, I didn’t want to compete for any of them!”

Bai Feng looked at him in surprise. Are you kidding me?

If you’re not competing, then what the hell are you making a fuss about with me every day!
Liu Hong took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, “Bai Feng, you are a smart man, so let’s talk frankly! I need to fight with you, fight without breaking, win more and lose less, or even lose more and win less, but I can’t keep losing!”

“I need to see the hope of winning, no, some people need to see that I have the hope of winning!”

Liu Hong said in a low voice, “I need to win you a few times, I can’t keep losing, otherwise… my value will not be great, and it will not be worth it for them to spend too much energy to support me!”

Bai Feng frowned and said after a long while, “It’s a mess!”

“It’s a mess, but I can’t help it.” Liu Hong’s tone was low, “Bai Feng, my talent is not as good as yours, so I can only make up for it in other ways.”

“That’s your business, what does it have to do with me!”

Bai Feng didn’t want to pay attention to these messy things, Liu Hong took a deep breath and said, “Irrelevant? If it’s irrelevant, do you think I would target you? Why target you? If I can win you, I can get more support?”

“Because I’m too good!”

Bai Feng took it for granted, “I’m so good, if you can win me, then you have value.”

“That’s one aspect, but it’s not the main one, the key lies in…” Liu Hong said, paused, and said, “It lies in some things behind you, some things, some people, you understand it yourself, there’s no need to play dumb with me.”

Bai Feng raised his eyebrows, “Then what exactly do you want to say to me today?”

“I want to win, but I find… it’s too difficult!” Liu Hong took a deep breath, “The reserve student you took, I’m afraid he has outlined the divine text. I originally thought this was a flaw you sold to me, but now I realize it may not be, I misunderstood.”

“However, he is your student, he is from your lineage, and he will inevitably be targeted when he enters the school, targeted from the dark, and I… am on the surface!”

Liu Hong said coldly, “You don’t want to kill him because of your selfishness, do you? He is Liu Wenyan’s student, if something really happens to him, do you think you can get away with it?”

Bai Feng frowned.

“Let’s cooperate!”

Liu Hong exhaled, “I’ve been thinking about it for a long time, maybe cooperation between you and me is the best way! Let me win a few times, let me have value, let others believe that I can continue to fight with you! In other words… raise a bandit to protect myself!”

“If I can continue to fight with you, then there will be no other incidents, and the struggle will be controlled between you and me.”

Liu Hong said seriously, “Let me win a few times, some of the things I get, I can give you a part, what you lose is face, what you gain is real benefit, and I also have benefits, mutually beneficial!”

Liu Hong looked sincere, “You are not in the Lingyun Mountains and Seas, if you change opponents at this time, do you think you can hold on? Bai Feng, I am the foundation for you to cultivate with peace of mind and stability, without me, you would not be so relaxed now, you can’t deny this!”

Bai Feng wanted to complain a little, but after thinking about it carefully, damn it, it seems to make some sense.

When did this guy become so eloquent!

“You want to win me? Just rely on your low-grade little calculations?”

“Little calculations are also wisdom.” Liu Hong didn’t feel ashamed either, and opened his mouth again, “Next, I will apply to be the chief instructor of this year’s freshmen, I hope you won’t obstruct me!”

“You want to target Su Yu?”

“Yes.”

Liu Hong said frankly, “He is your student, so I will naturally target him, even if it seems to lack a big picture, but you can’t do anything about it, and it also proves that you are not better than me in everything.”

Bai Feng touched his chin, pondered for a while, and said, “No problem, like this, all the salary and merit points of your chief instructor will be given to me, in addition, you will compensate me with 50 merit points every month, you want me to turn a deaf ear, you have to give me some benefits, right?”

“I want benefits, and my student also needs them, so that it’s easy to cooperate with you, don’t you think?”

Bai Feng smiled, “That kid is a poor man, give him more benefits, let’s work with you to do great things! Our master and apprentice can be suppressed by you every day, no problem, as long as the price you pay exceeds the price we can get…”

“By the way, since you know about this kid outlining the divine text, then he is also considered a genius, you suppress a genius… if I really make trouble, you won’t have a good time, Liu Hong, consider it, if you are willing, we will work with you to do great things!”

Bai Feng was so happy, “Suppressing mediocre people and suppressing geniuses, the results are different! And the achievements are also different, you suppress a mediocre person, who looks up to you, but you suppress a genius, tsk tsk… you are a capable person!”

“At that time, you will get more benefits, if this kid performs well, is very talented, but always suffers in your hands… then you are amazing!”

Bai Feng exclaimed, “No, your plan has too many loopholes, how about this, you can let others try it out in the early stage, and as a result, this kid overturns the situation every time, making them look disheveled, embarrassed, and disgraced!”

“Without comparison, there is no harm. With a comparison, when you, Liu Hong, come, you suppress our master and apprentice, tsk tsk… it’s amazing, that’s when your value is maximized!”

Bai Feng was more and more satisfied as he thought about it, “How about this? The price is not high, of course, the price may increase in the later stage, after all, that kid’s strength will also improve, and so will I, you target a Kaiyuan and a Tengkong, and target a Tengkong and a Lingyun, the price is definitely different!”

Liu Hong was a little dazed at the moment, you… agreed so readily?

“Bai Feng, I’m serious.”

“I’m not kidding either!”

Bai Feng said strangely, “Without targeting, where does the motivation come from! Geniuses are not made by closed-door cultivation, I’m still worried, how can I give that kid pressure when he arrives at the academy, and not let him resent me… you take over now, I’m very satisfied, give you some ideas, do you think it’s not good?””When that kid can’t take it anymore and asks for help, I’ll step in and ruthlessly suppress you. If you lose, he vents his anger, I’m satisfied, and then you pay! Get more good stuff from the people behind you, because you can’t suppress it anymore. If you can suppress it in the beginning, they’ll give you more benefits. If you can still suppress it, they’ll agree too. That way, we can keep making big money!”

The more Bai Feng thought about it, the more excited he became. “Liu Hong, why didn’t you say so earlier! If you had, I would have been playing along with you long ago. I’ve been having a headache these past few days. The teacher’s disappeared, and the research institute is a money pit, with expenses exceeding income!”

“I was wondering, what would happen to the research institute if I went out to make money? What about teaching students? … Now I can sit at home and collect money. Remember to call me next time there’s something like this!”

“Wait…” Liu Hong couldn’t help but say, “Don’t you…don’t you feel something is inappropriate?”

“Inappropriate?”

Bai Feng asked in surprise, “You’re not happy about it?”

“No…” Liu Hong was a bit broken. “You being suppressed by me, don’t you feel…don’t you feel a little…embarrassed?”

“Embarrassed?”

Bai Feng found it strange. “Liu Hong, why should I be embarrassed? You’re suppressing my student. I’m too busy, I don’t have time to bother with you. When I’m done, I’ll take care of you properly. After I beat you up, you’ll behave for a few days. I’ll have face, and I can even show off my strength in front of my students. Why should I be embarrassed?”

“You…” Liu Hong was suddenly speechless.

He thought he might have really misjudged Bai Feng.

This guy’s reaction was completely different from what he had expected!

He…he hadn’t understood Bai Feng at all these years!

Liu Hong took a deep breath. “Since you agree, I’ll agree to your conditions. Bai Feng, when I step into the Soaring Cloud realm, I’ll truly compete with you. The current me doesn’t have the ability to jump out of this circle.”

Bai Feng smiled and said, “Soaring Cloud? When you’re Soaring Cloud…I might be in the Mountain and Sea realm, Liu Hong. Just follow me and do great things, don’t think too much.”

Liu Hong wanted to curse. It was me who came to you to discuss cooperation, not me cooperating with you to do great things!

Can you please distinguish between primary and secondary!

Bai Feng ignored him and said as he walked, “Then starting from today, you’ll pay me a reward. Oh right, is the Wu family also part of the circle behind you?”

“No, I exchanged it for an external aid with the ‘Strength’ divine script.”

“Oh, lend me that divine script for a few days to study…”

Liu Hong’s face turned dark. “That’s too much!”

“Stop with the act. You let Wu Qi study it, which means that the real core isn’t this thing. Stop lying to me. You still have something at the bottom of the box. Giving me a look at the core you’re intentionally showing off, will it cost you a piece of flesh?”

Bai Feng didn’t care. “It’s not like Wu Qi can’t see through your little tricks. Do you think I’ll believe the ‘Strength’ divine script is your trump card?”

Bai Feng had an expression of disbelief. Still trying to hide it, what are you hiding.

Are you planning to screw me over at a critical moment?

What are you thinking!

Liu Hong’s expression changed, and after a long while, he nodded. “Alright!”

“Good boy!”

Bai Feng smiled. “By the way, my student is not simple. Remember to find someone powerful to suppress him! Are the Wan family, Xia family, and Hu family sending any new people to the academy this time? Find those people to suppress him. Don’t count on Wu Qi’s sister. Wu Qi herself would be fine if she were a few years younger, but her sister…that idiot ran to Nan Yuan, which means she’s not very smart. People who aren’t smart aren’t qualified to participate in this kind of thing. Even as a thug, she’s too green!”

The corners of Liu Hong’s mouth twitched. He couldn’t help but ask, “Is that Su Yu really that talented?”

“A bit stronger than you, maybe.”

Bai Feng smiled. “It’s not about talent, it’s about having more tenacity than you guys. I think his personality is a bit similar to…that bastard.”

“The one from the War Academy?”

“Who else could it be besides that bastard?”

Bai Feng’s eyes flashed with displeasure, but he quickly smiled and said, “Su Yu also came from a small place. People from small places can endure, hibernate, rise and fall. Sometimes face isn’t worth anything, and they’re not easily defeated. I like that kind of person. They’re much better than you guys.”

Liu Hong seemed thoughtful, and Bai Feng had already gone far away.

After Bai Feng left, Liu Hong’s eyes flickered for a while. He let out a soft breath, thought for a moment, and took out his communicator to make a call.

“Suppress him! Let that little girl from the Wu family stand in front, but don’t make it too obvious.”

After the other side responded, Liu Hong hung up the call.

He exhaled a long breath. Liu Hong turned his head to look behind him, not knowing what he was looking at. After a long time, a smile appeared on his face.

Human hearts cannot be controlled. Geniuses…who would willingly be a pawn?

He, Liu Hong, will soon be in the seventh level of Soaring Cloud. Don’t forget, he and Bai Feng are the same age.

Fighting with Bai Feng for several years, losing more than winning, doesn’t mean he’s useless.

“Maybe Bai Feng is right. There’s value in comparison! Let others try first, but…I hope Bai Feng and his student won’t disappoint me. If they’re defeated in the testing phase…”

Bai Feng wants to nurture him, but he actually wants to nurture Bai Feng and his disciple.

Without Bai Feng as a target, where would he get so many good things?

“That student of his is still too weak. This year’s freshmen enrollment has several monstrous talents…Don’t let him be defeated. Should I…secretly provide some benefits?”

Liu Hong fell into deep thought, wondering if he should create some serendipitous encounters for that little guy, spend a little blood, and let him cultivate his nature as soon as possible or master some more divine scripts?
