Dawn had underestimated Tai Shu Wudi's determination and had witnessed Tai Shu Youqing's arrogance. The Sword Spirit Academy had never been a place that valued reason. Moreover, what Dawn was dealing with was their Bloodline Descendant, and a Monster-level Bloodline Descendant at that. If they didn't take advantage of this situation now, they wouldn't deserve to be called the "Supreme Overlord" within the Supreme Academy.
"Excuse me, Headmaster, what crime has this mere Female Cultivator from the Void Realm committed that requires your personal intervention? Has the War God Academy truly run out of capable individuals?" Tai Shu Wudi's words were sharp, leaving Dawn speechless.
Everything was wrong, and Dawn chose not to respond.
Tai Shu Wudi was relentless.
"But I just heard someone say that there are disturbances in your academy regarding the War God Order. Is this true? Why was I unaware that the War had escalated to the point of issuing the War God Order?"
Another harsh blow. If Dawn made even one misstep in answering, Tai Shu Wudi would undoubtedly seize the opportunity to strike again.
In an instant, it had turned into a battle of titans, and Jiang Yuqi could only consider herself unfortunate; after all, Tai Shu Wudi was someone even her own teacher avoided provoking. Not due to strength, but because he was simply too troublesome.
Her rare opportunity for selection ended like this; it would be a lie to say she wasn't frustrated.
As for what was happening in the arena, Zuo Dao didn't think it concerned him. Seeing that it had nothing to do with him, he went over to chat with Jiang Yuqi.
"Hey, Yuqi, how is your Supreme Academy so chaotic with so many different academies?" Zuo Dao said without a filter, carefree as always.
Jiang Yuqi shot him an annoyed glance.
"What do you mean chaotic? It's clearly well-organized. As long as you have the ability, you can also establish one." Suddenly realizing something, he recalled a rule within the Supreme Academy: if certain conditions were met, one could apply to establish their own academy.
"Wait a minute, Daozi, you’re not thinking about that, are you?"
"What idea?" Zuo Dao just wanted to chat but hadn't expected it to lead to this much.
"Forming an academy, huh? Your strength has already met the requirements. All you need now is personnel and to complete a few more tasks," Jiang Yuqi thought Zuo Dao was still pretending to be ignorant.
"Oh? There's this regulation too? Let me take a look." Zuo Dao replayed the information Jiang Yuqi had given him in his mind. "There really is!"
At that moment, Jiang Yuqi realized that Zuo Dao hadn't thought much about it at all!
"Forget I said anything."
With that, he silently walked aside, deciding never to speak another word to Zuo Dao. Pits, they were all pits!
Establishing his own academy was indeed a good choice. Zuo Dao stroked his chin, a glint of cold light flashing in his eyes, which made the Three Women nearby shiver involuntarily.
At this point, Dawn was at a loss for how to respond to Tai Shu Wudi. The cause and process of the matter were laid out before him; it couldn't be resolved with just a denial. In their Realm, going against one's conscience was a taboo.
Seeing that Dawn remained silent, Tai Shu Wudi understood that some matters shouldn't be pressed too hard and smiled faintly.
"Actually, there's no need for the dean to be like this. If you want to summon people, go ahead; this matter is none of my Sword Spirit Academy's business. However, you cannot touch this Female Cultivator even a little."
Dawn thought that the other party was also eyeing Tai Shu Yun. Since they had a purpose, it could be a good thing worth discussing; he was willing to pay any price.
"Dean Tai Shu, if you're here for people too, that's easy. I only want that Female Cultivator; everyone else can belong to your Sword Spirit Academy. At the same time, my War God Academy can also share some benefits with you."
"Haha, Dawn, have you not understood yet? I must take her away today. Don't worry; I won't give you a single benefit," Tai Shu Wudi said dismissively before turning his attention to Tai Shu Yun.
Unlike his earlier domineering and arrogant demeanor, his gaze towards Tai Shu Yun was now gentle, kind, and filled with appreciation.
As Tai Shu Yun called out this person's name at dawn, she knew that there must be some connection between them. However, to her, nothing was more important than protecting Zuo Dao, and the two fox spirits beside her truly needed to be on high alert.
At this moment, there were hardly any people left in the arena. The appearance of Tai Shu Youqing had already scared away some, and when Tai Shu Wudi showed up, it cleared the place entirely.
Now, only Tai Shu Yun, Tai Shu Youqing, and Tai Shu Wudi remained in a triangular standoff, while Jiang Yuqi and Zuo Dao were among the last four people left. The atmosphere grew tense.
"Well then, esteemed directors, I have completed my task, so I will take my leave," Jiang Yuqi said, glancing around. He felt like an unnecessary presence; if he didn't leave now, when would he?
"You're not wrong; you did well this time. I will go find your teacher later to reward you. For now, you can go. Tai Shu Yun stays; everyone else can disperse," Tai Shu Youqing seemed quite familiar with Jiang Yuqi's teacher.
"Do I also get to leave?" Zuo Dao asked as he looked at Tai Shu Youqing.
Tai Shu Youqing did not expect Zuo Dao to say such a thing. A Concentration Realm Cultivator—no, this Cultivator was a bit peculiar.
"Of course it includes you. Do you want me to invite you for tea?" For once, Tai Shu Youqing made a joke.
"I should clarify that it's not tea made from Soulwood; I don't drink that," Zuo Dao replied dismissively. If he wanted to take aim at Tai Shu Yun, he had to get past him first.
"What? You know about Soulwood?" Tai Shu Youqing suddenly appeared next to Zuo Dao. "My friend, where did you learn about that?"
Soulwood is a plant born from the essence of the earth, with each leaf taking a thousand years to grow and each branch taking ten thousand years for a single bud. Each branch only grows one green leaf, which will fall and turn to mud if not harvested within one hundred years.
However, brewing tea with the green leaves from Soulwood has tremendous benefits for a Cultivator's soul. It not only nourishes and strengthens the soul but can also repair damaged souls; even if your soul is barely intact, it can help restore it to normal and even enhance it further.
Moreover, due to the extremely harsh growing conditions of Soulwood, those that have survived since ancient times are exceedingly rare. Not to mention that it takes over eleven thousand years just to obtain a single leaf of soul essence.
"I certainly don't have any, otherwise, what would I be doing with you all?" Zuo Dao glanced at Tai Shu Youqing with a hint of disdain, leaving Tai Shu Youqing speechless.
"Let's go, let's go. Since they don't have any Soul Tea to drink, there's no point in staying here. What are you looking at? Come on." Zuo Dao tossed a carefree back at Tai Shu Youqing.
At that moment, Jiang Yuqi's admiration for Zuo Dao had reached an indescribable level, like the endless waters of the three rivers or the uncountable waves of the sea.
With Zuo Dao leaving, the Three Women wouldn't stay behind, especially Tai Shu Yun, who moved as swiftly as a rabbit and quickly caught up to Zuo Dao.
"You can't leave." Tai Shu Youqing finally realized something was off; it turned out this person wasn't alone but was part of a group.
It didn't matter who left, but Tai Shu Yun couldn't go.
Tai Shu Yun turned back and made a face at Tai Shu Youqing. "Wherever the Young Master goes, I will follow. Why can't you leave? I belong to the Young Master." With that, Tai Shu Yun proudly grabbed Zuo Dao's arm. "Isn't that right? Young Master?"
"That's right, you are," Zuo Dao replied sharply, glaring at Tai Shu Yun with gritted teeth.
"You heard that! The Young Master acknowledged it," Tai Shu Yun said with a triumphant expression.
At this point, Tai Shu Youqing and Tai Shu Wudi were also on the verge of exploding. They were beginning to realize that among this group, Zuo Dao was the true decision-maker.
What about everything that had happened before? Could it all have been orchestrated by this person?
