Wang Wei looked at the young man before him dressed in a blue literary robe, giving a free and easy atmosphere as if he were an ambitious scholar who wanted to asure the world with his feet. He compared it with the sage-like elderly man in his mory.
"Headmaster Bai Han? No, I should call you Young Master Bai Han," Wang Wei said calmly. Bai Han looked at him, a complex feeling flashing in his mind. At one ti, this person was his junior and soone he saw as a threat. But now, the latter beca his father's peer.
Bai Han exhaled softly to compose himself. He cupped his hands and bowed: Empyrean Wang, it's an honor to see you. My father, I an, the Dean, sent to welco you."
Wang Wei looked at him and sighed: "Ti is truly a fascinating subject if you look at it through the lens of the human experience. Young Dean Bai, I'm glad I'm no longer your Heart Demon."
Bai Han smiled wryly. "I was young back then, so don't take what happens to heart." His father spent much effort to enlighten him, allowing him to realize Qi of Calamity influenced him in the lower dinsion and that Wang Wei had beco his Heart Demon.
"I'm not that narrow-minded," Wang Wei replied. "Co one, lead the way."
"No problem." Bai Han flew into the distance, and Wang Wei followed. The outer area was vast, and even while flying countless tis faster than light, it took them more than thirty minutes to reach their destination. Wang Wei realized Bai Han wanted to give him a tour instead of directly sending him to their destination, so he enjoyed the sight. There were many people; more importantly, he saw ten thousand different races.
"Teaching myriad races without distinction? It seems your father is truly walking the path of a Sage," Wang Wei comnted. Most sects are racially based, including the Dao Opening Sect. Although they recruit other races, the human race is the main, while only a few highly talented foreign talents will be recruited.
"The Academy has always t to teach all sentient beings, but in the lower dinsion, we had to focus on the human race due to the political climate," Bai Han said. "However, here, we have much room for developnt."
"There is also the fact you can't offend the demon race by excluding them," Wang Wei added. This academy was the only one opening because Emperor Kong made a deal with the parasites, but he only opened it for humans; the Blood Dragon and Five Feather would have slapped him into oblivion.
"There is that too," Bai Han nodded.
"When is your academy's next recruitnt?"
"We recruit people every 50,000 Yuan Epoch, and the next ti is still about 2,000 epochs away."
"That's not a long interval." Resources are strictly controlled and not infinite, so most factions will not recruit people easily. So factions will only recruit people every million yuan epochs. Of course, they have recruitnt halls that will search for talents in the anti, but no mass recruitnts will occur.
"We promise to train a few elites for the moons, so we must recruit more consistently than others," Bai Han explained.
Wang Wei nodded. They soon reached their destination. Wang Wei saw another part of the city in the distance, but he knew this was just a mirage. Then, like the academy in the lower dinsion, Bai Han activated a token, and they entered another world where the inner area was located.
The first thing Wang Wei saw were countless towers. They were everywhere in this enormous city, and there were many of them — at least 10,000. He also noticed that each tower contained a unique aura or charm.
"What are those?" Wang Wei asked.
"The different schools," Bai Han explained. "The Academy's philosophy is to teach based on a person's talent or ability, so the Dean divided the teaching into different schools.
"There is the School of Alchemy and School of Array that teaches profession. The School of Heart focuses on training the Dao Heart. The School of Willpower teaches people with high willpower but low talent, the School of Enlightennt teaches people with high understanding but terrible physical qualities, the School of Combat for people with fighting talent, and so on."
"This thod is excellent for teaching middle to lower talents, but it's not enough to teach top geniuses," Wang Wei comnted. Any unparalleled Emperor will have their expertise, but they must also excel at many other things, especially regarding Dao Heart, willpower, soul, etc. They cannot have any flaws.
"That's what the central area is for," Bai Han explained. "If soone shows talent in many categories, they will be observed and tested for a period before entering the Academy's core for training."
"I see," Wang Wei nodded as he continued flying. He observed everything, including the towers. "Hmm? Is that a Devil Cultivator?"
"That's right," Bai Han nodded calmly.
"You guys even accept these people? Wait, why does he feel so weird? I can sense his resentnt, but he has no negative karma."
"Him? He's from the School of Righteous Devil."
"Righteous Devil? I see. You feed the devil cultivators the flesh, blood, and souls of creation lives instead of regular people. That way, their bodies are still full of resentnt, but Heavenly Dao does not acknowledge the karma of killing these creation lives. Your father is indeed a genius."
"As much as we would like to claim the idea for such a thing, but it wasn't his," Bai Han explained. His father told him he had this idea after annihilating a weak Empyrean Lineage. Their ancestor was a Devil Empyrean, but he did not want his descendants to suffer the sa hardship as him.
Simultaneously, the man was proud of his Supre Magic Technique and used this thod to help them.
"Your father wants to teach all sentient beings; doesn't creation lives count? The existence of this school seems to contradict that."
"We will teach anyone who cos, but how to teach is sothing else," Bai Han explained. "Truth be told, the School of Righteous Devil exists only to give hope to the desperate. The people with extrely low talent, willpower, and understanding do not et the requirents of the other schools.
"However, even so, their school is the most infamous, has the most risks, and has the highest restrictions. Only people with terrible talent who wish to embark on the cultivation path no matter what will enter."
Bai Han shook his head. The people of that school are easily influenced by the resentnt around them, turning them into madn or allowing their killing nature to take over and commit true sins. As such, the people in that school are closely monitored, and their teachers have strict requirents for training their state of mind and Dao Heart.
"Leaving hope for the desperate? Indeed a sentint for a broadminded Sage," Wang Wei praised. The Dao Opening Sect only cultivates elites, so there is no way for them to have such a branch in their midst. However, the nature of the Academy is different, so it made sense that Emperor Kong would do this.
"Have there been any Great Emperors born in that school?"
"There have been a few, and one legendary one that also beca an Empyrean," Bai Han said with so pride. From the records, he knew many people disagreed with his father's decision to establish that school until a few unparalleled figures appeared — especially Empyrean Nine-Death.
"Oh? A Legend?"
"That's right," Bai Han nodded. "The other devils used their determination to break the limit of their talents, and then, with the Academy's resources, slowly caught up to their peers and even proved the Dao. Five of the seven beca Eternals, and the remaining two were Pseudo Eternaos.
"However, these people eventually changed their path — they can no longer be counted as Devil Cultivators. So of them even completely denied their origin." Bai Han shook his head.
"The only exception is Empyrean Nine Death. He continued the Demonic Path. After purifying his soul and increasing his comprehension, he completed the Nine-Death Nine-Life Sutra, which absorbed flesh, blood, and soul to condense the Supre Demon Body, which has absolute control over the soul, resentnts, negative emotions, negative karma, blood, death, and life.
"He never changed his path or denied his origin. Now, he's one of the best teachers in the Academy and the second-best fighter after my father."
"It sounds like he does deserve the title of a legend," Wang Wei praised. He could tell what talent soone must have to be allocated to the School of Righteous Devil. It's also because of these low talents that these people have incredible achievents once they succeed in life.
"Few would deny that," Bai Han nodded. Many people still want to close that school to this day, but with Empyrean Nine Death present, no one dares. That school might be the weakest among the academies and receive the least resources, but no one can shut it down because of its existence.
'It's already a miracle that Bai Han beca an Empyrean in such a short period, so how did he train another?' Wang Wei pondered. He was not surprised the Academy had Empyreans, but he figured they were people Emperor Kong recruited. However, Bai Han said that the academy trained this man, and it sounded like he was not the only one.
