Sowhere in the Divine Civilization was a fairly unknown, third-rate school called Troll College[1]. Their students mostly spent their days lazing around, scrolling through news in their dorms.
“Wei En got coerced! Everyone, write a hundred comnts today to push this story. Anyone who doesn’t owes the rest of us a round!”
“Nothing gets angrier than people like that. What kind of Wisdom God King is this guy? He looks proper on the outside but is actually rotten to the core.”
“Brothers, soone just shared sothing from an Imperial College contact.”
“What? Post it.”
The students clicked the link in the group chat and read the caption.
“Spent the night, 300 Divine Essence.”
Below the caption was a photo. Lustful expressions appeared on all the n’s faces as they zood into the naked figure, eyeing the fair skin and the beauty mark on the chest. They then glanced at the person’s face, and every one of them froze.
“Is that... the goddess Wei En?”
“Faked for sure. Let run it through my detector.”
The result ca back negative. The photo was not altered. It was real.
“Check the comnts.”
Over a thousand comnts had already flooded in below the post.
“Isn’t that the goddess Wei En? The photo must be faked.”
“Photo’s real. I just checked. I’m surprised. I was just in the comnts ripping into the Wisdom God King. How am I supposed to deal with this?”
“I’ve done it too. Two hundred Divine Essence, four hours. Truly no limits.”
“Wei En, I gave you everything. You took everything.”
“Wei En, co out and face this!”

Wei En had just fallen asleep when a barrage of calls woke her. The Slaughter Faction had rewarded her generously for landing a damaging blow on the Wisdom Faction, and she had been drifting off, mind filled with pleasant thoughts of a bright future attached to the Butcher.
Wei En answered one of the calls to hear a Saintess Club mber frantically relaying the news, even forwarding her a link. The comnts below the post had already crossed a million. So of the comnts were people asking for her current rates.
Fury boiled up within Wei En. She was a pure little angel, yet the comnts seed to view her as soone willing to sell her body for the right price. The rage nearly caused her to completely lose her composure.
Logging on, she fired back at comnt after comnt, insisting that the photo was fake. However, following that post were hundreds more, each with photos of her, all unclothed. With them ca over a hundred people claiming to have paid for her ti, at a pretty steep rate at that.
If a single person brought it up, it could still be dismissed as slander. When a hundred people said it, it beca near undeniable in the eyes of the public, regardless of whether it was actually true. It wasn’t just empty claims either. They had photos as proof. People checked every photo, but none showed any signs of editing.
So Saintess Club mbers knew Wei En well enough to recognize her from the beauty mark in the first photo and couldn’t help the seed of doubt that was sown within them.
The faith those mbers had placed in Wei En crumbled. They had believed her an immaculate saint, only to discover she had been trading her body for resources behind closed doors. Wanting nothing more to do with her, they began withdrawing from the club.
This only marked the beginning of the collapse.
As the mass withdrawal from the Saintess Club continued, Imperial College issued a statent. Wei En had acted in a manner unbefitting of her character and had caused serious damage to Imperial College’s reputation. Thus, all honors and titles she had received from the college were hereby revoked, and she would be held accountable.
The stated reason for the action was that Wei En had made groundless accusations without evidence, resulting in reputational harm to both the Wisdom God King, Xu Hai, and the Imperial College.
At the Wisdom Faction’s request, the college had chosen not to specify the details, but the deliberately vague statent caused the public to take it as indirect confirmation that Wei En had really slept with others for money. Those previously on Wei En’s side imdiately turned on her.
She had a listed price, so what were these claims of coercion? Did the Wisdom God King look like soone who couldn’t afford two or three hundred Divine Essence? He could probably spare 2 or 3 million without blinking. This was clearly an extortion attempt gone wrong, and when the Wisdom God King didn’t pay up, she’d resorted to slander.
Moreover, none of her accusations were backed by a single concrete piece of evidence. Not even a photo. Wei En had nothing. She had relied entirely on her looks to make people believe her. In the end, her looks alone couldn’t hold up against the damning images online.
In a single day, Wei En went from soone under widespread protection to soone everyone wanted to tear apart. By the second day, many of the new recruits joining the Slaughter Faction’s side withdrew. The righteous crusaders no longer had a reason to fight against the Wisdom Faction.
On the third day, the students who had withdrawn from the Wisdom Faction began acknowledging their mistake and applied to rejoin. A number of previously unrelated students felt guilty about their part in spreading the story and applied as a way of making ands.
By the fifth day, every outpost the Wisdom Faction had lost was recovered, and they had even taken several of the Slaughter Faction’s territories on top of that. The tide had completely turned.
The Slaughter Faction issued a statent the very next day. They had held a formal eting to discuss Wei En’s actions and decided to expel her from the faction.
The Butcher hadn’t intended to be this harsh, but many Warfare College students had voiced their dissatisfaction with the situation, having joined under the impression that they were protecting an innocent girl.
This situation made it clear that Wei En had simply been using them as weapons. From what had been dug up, this wasn’t even the first ti she’d done sothing like this. She evidently only viewed that as another batch of useful idiots.
As part of the Warfare College students’ complaints, they gave the Butcher an ultimatum: either Wei En left or they did. The Butcher wasn’t about to give up the Warfare College students, so after weighing his options, he decided to cut his losses and drop Wei En.
This both cald the Warfare College students and salvaged so of the Slaughter Faction’s reputation. It was better late than never.
Thus, Wei En lost everything in a sar campaign that she started, becoming the main casualty of her own war. Her na was ruined, and her future was destroyed.
