BXBX NOVEL Chapter 967: Chapter 940 Academy_1
"An Acquired Spiritual Treasure, how could a mere True Immortal like you possess it?"
"In a bit of time, you\'ll become my highly poisonous puppet."
The man thought to himself, taking a sip of his Spirit Tea.
"It\'s a pity that the Tea of the Great Dao of the poisonous Dao is too expensive, I can\'t afford to drink it often."
"But once I obtain the Acquired Spiritual Treasure this time, I must ask the Purple Profound Sage for a cup of Poisonous Tea."
The man\'s expression revealed ecstasy, as if recalling the taste of the Tea of the Great Dao.
Just then, he furrowed his brow but soon relaxed again.
Within the Hidden Spirit Gate, Xu Fan was entertaining Shang Ling, the Guardian True Immortal of the Golden Device City.
With a brilliant smile and friendly demeanor, Xu Fan was like an old friend, whom he hadn\'t seen for a long time.
"Great Master, here are the existing Immortal Jades from those families, totaling more than 2.3 million." Shang Ling said, taking out a Space Ring.
"Guardian True Immortal, you are too polite." Xu Fan said with a hearty laugh, gesturing for Xu Gang, who was waiting nearby, to take the Space Ring.
"Those families that have offended your sect, some compensation is indeed necessary."
"The properties and industries of the remaining families in various cities will take some time to sell off. Once sold, the proceeds will be given to your sect without fail." Shang Ling said with a flattering smile.
Ever since that battle, he changed his strategy towards the Hidden Spirit Gate.
He now has something to ask for, hence, he didn\'t even take the usual three, but gave it all to the Hidden Spirit Gate.
"I don\'t need those properties, Guardian True Immortal, you keep them." Xu Fan waved his hand, indicating his disinterest in the remnants.
According to your newly established intelligence network, the remaining assets of those families are worth around 200,000 Immortal Jades.
Even if I take the lion\'s share, there should always be some leftovers for others.
"This is the compensation your sect deserves, Great Master. Please don\'t refuse." Shang Ling hurriedly insisted.
"Guardian True Immortal, is there anything else you need?" Xu Fan\'s warm face slightly retracted, it was obvious Shang Ling had something to request.
"It\'s not a big matter, I just want to ask the Great Master to establish a Public Academy in the Golden Device City," Shang Ling said, looking at Xu Fan hopefully.
The 80 million disciples recruited by the Hidden Gate, each have a half-month home leave every year.
The disciples\' methods of learning and cultivation naturally get revealed.
Coupled with the surprising progress in their cultivation realms, this inspired Shang Ling.
"Great Master may not know this, but our Golden Device City is becoming more and more declining, being off the main air route and having exhausted all our spiritual mine specialties. Moreover, we don\'t have a unique industry anymore, causing more and more disappearances."
"I feel that the method your sect uses to teach its disciples is quite unique and extremely effective."
"So, I came to beg your sect to develop the industry of Cultivation Academy in the Golden Device City."
"As long as we establish a good reputation for our academy, it will attract the children of cultivation families from nearby Giant Cities to learn."
"This will greatly boost the prosperity of the Golden Device City."
Shang Ling looked at Xu Fan with tearful eyes, lowering his stance as much as possible, hoping that Xu Fan would agree to his request.
Xu Fan looked at Shang Ling, not expecting that this sister-in-law would also have talent, for thinking about developing the education industry to prosper the city\'s economy.
"As far as I know, those Immortal Sects and Holy Lands have similar teaching methods. My method of teaching disciples isn\'t that rare, right?"
"It\'s different! Those methods are usually found in top-tier Immortal Sects and Holy Lands. Ordinary sects still adhere to the method of higher cultivation teaching others."
"If the Great Master could open an academy in the Golden Device City, as long as it gains fame, I\'m sure it would earn an abundant amount of Immortal Jade."
"In this way, your sect gets Immortal Jade, and Golden Device City gets a chance to develop. This is a win-win situation." Shang Ling looked at Xu Fan with extreme desire in his eyes.
Previously, Shang Ling had three priorities: Cultivation, handling the daily affairs of Golden Device City, and agonizing over how to develop Golden Device City.
He hadn\'t been in charge during the city\'s most glorious time. When he took over, the city had already fallen to last place, and it wouldn\'t be an exaggeration to say that it was the lowest-ranked Giant City in the Star Moon Immortal Domain.
At the annual gathering of Guardian True Immortals from various Giant Cities, he would always hang his head low.
"Not a bad idea, but where do we find the Cultivation Technique? We can\'t just give away the Cultivation Technique of my sect," Xu Fan said casually.
In the eyes of this Guardian True Immortal of the Golden Device City, he saw a glimmer of hope, and that was the Hidden Spirit Gate.
"You don\'t need to provide the Cultivation Technique. My family has a complete system of Cultivation Technique traditions. We can gather some miscellaneous Divine Abilities and Immortal Techniques, which can sustain the establishment of an academy." Shang Ling responded, eyes shining brightly.
This was his only chance in nearly ten thousand years, the only chance for him to lift his head at the gathering of Guardian True Immortals.
Humans strive for a sense of dignity and Buddha strives for a moment of peace.
"Guardian True Immortal, you are not simple!" Xu Fan said with a laugh.
"My ancestors were once a great cultivation family, with a Golden Immortal emerging at its peak. But now the family has fallen into desolation, and the only thing of value I can bring out is this complete system of Cultivation Techniques." Shang Ling spoke, these were things he had never mentioned to anyone, but he was willing to risk it all for this chance today.
"Is there really potential in this Cultivation Academy?" Xu Fan asked. Although Pu Tao had already given him a report with all the data.
In the Cultivation World, larger Immortal Sects and Holy Lands have strict requirements for accepting disciples.
In the Immortal World, most Mortals have Spiritual Roots, but not all Mortals with Spiritual Roots can join a sect.
However, those small sects that do not have strict disciple recruitment requirements, most of them do not have cultivation techniques as good as those widely circulating in the market.
Therefore, under these circumstances, academies came into being. They release several techniques that are better than the ones widely distributed in the market, invite several True Immortals who can teach disciples, and an academy can be established.
They mainly recruit the disciples from smaller cultivation families with low cultivation levels. As long as you pay Spirit Stones and Immortal Jade, you can cultivate the traditional techniques of our academy and get guidance from True Immortals.
If the success rate of becoming an Immortal in this academy is high, there would be no shortage of students in the Immortal World.
"So what you want is just the method I used to teach my disciples?" Xu Fan asked.
"Yes, as long as the Great Master gives me an Illusionary Spirit Realm like that, in the future, I could just lay back and collect Immortal Jades annually."
"All the earned Immortal Jades, after deducting the costs of the Golden Device City, will be given to your sect." Shang Ling said.
"It\'s not impossible. My sect does have a responsibility to contribute to the Golden Device City."
"So, my sect will provide a set of Illusionary Spirit Realm for teaching disciples, and the earnings of Immortal Jade will be split 20 to 80."
"The Guardian True Immortal can\'t be the only one working."
