Bai Han walked to another building of the Academy while wondering why the Supreme Teachers summoned him. Usually, when they have something to say or report to him, they would come in person. But this time. They summoned him.

Thus, he knew that something was wrong.

After entering the meeting room, Bai Han"s heart skipped a beat because he saw all the active True Monarchs of the Academy in the same room. And this time, there was not the usual respect that they had for him.

After a quick a.n.a.lysis of the structure of the room, Bai Han could guess the reason for this meeting.

"Bai Han, do you know your crimes?" directly asked one of the True Monarchs.

"I do not know," replied Bai Han.

"Even now you are still trying to absolve yourself of your crimes? The majority of our Sect"s Qi Luck is gone, the loyalty of many of our disciples is wavering, and more importantly, we lost the Spirit of the Epoch.

"You of all people should understand what this means to our Academy?"

Of course, Bai Han knew what it meant for the Academy to lose the Spirit of the Epoch. With it, their Academy was guaranteed to cultivate a ninth Emperor soon and later to balance out the power of the Dao Opening Sect.

But now, nothing was certain. They might cultivate one on their own effort, or they might spend billions of years without any success: Nothing was set in stone anymore.

Bai Han took a deep breath before answering: "All of this is w.a.n.g Wei"s fault."

"If you did not antagonize him, do you think would reach such a state?" reb.u.t.ted another True Monarch.

Bai Han looked at the person who spoke and recognized him; he belonged to a group of the older generations who advocate using their powerful cultivation level to take power or control of the Academy. Bai Han never liked him and was constantly b.u.t.ting head with him.

"There is no need to say something so naive?" replied the headmaster. "Even without my actions, w.a.n.g Wei would never allow our Academy to continue growing and reach the level of threatening the Dao Opening Sect. My actions can best be described as expediting the time he takes action against us."

The previous Supreme Teacher who spoke snorted coldly: "Even if what you said is true, the situation would never escalate so quickly. If you had accepted his offer to see the Dao Tablets, our Academy would have received a lot of benefits."

"I only did that to prevent him from growing too powerful."

"This only shows that you do not have as much of an accepting mind as him and his confidence. Didn"t he allow Ji Song to gain access to the PaG.o.da Trial fully knowing that it would help train his opponent?

"You could have accepted his offer, but limit the amount of time he could spend there to reduce the advantages that he would receive."

Bai Han did not say anything after hearing this. As for the other True Monarchs, they secretly sighed but did not say anything. However, that elder did not stop talking.

"Not to mention that you almost ruined the Academy"s reputation by the little stunt you pulled on both Li Jun and Ji Song."

Bai Han took a deep breath to calm himself down, then he asked: "Did you called me here to berate me?"

"No, we did not." This time it was another True Monarch that spoke. "We called you here to announce that effective immediately, you are hereby removed from your position as the headmaster."

Although Bai Han expected this outcome when he was summoned to this meeting, he was still angry and worried after hearing the official decision. So, he hurriedly said: "You cannot do this!"

"Oh, why is that?" asked a True Monarch with a sneer on his face.

Bai Hai paused for a moment, his mind rapidly moving, then he gritted his teeth before saying: "Because I am the son of Emperor Kong. My father and mother build this Academy, and I"m its rightful heir."

The room instantly became quiet, however, Bai Han did not see any look of surprise on these people"s faces. So, a bad premonition overcame him.

"We were already aware of this fact," responded one of the True Monarch.

"What? How come?"

"After you were born, a will of the founder manifested itself and told us about your existence."

"He even warned us not to let you go too far. And if necessary, we should deprive you of your status and position."

Bai Han"s face became ugly after hearing this. "That d.a.m.n old man. Has he calculated everything? Has he been watching me make a clown of myself? d.a.m.n him."

He then looked at all these True Monarchs, "Is that the reason you all respected me so much? The reason that you chose me to become the headmaster?" Bai Han was roaring by the end of the sentence, his eyes were red and veins could be seen squirming on his forehead.

"Of course not," replied one of the True Monarch. "If you were incompetent, we would never allow you to become the headmaster."

"Correct. We also admire your understanding of cultivation and the ability to guide others."

Bai Han snorted: "h.e.l.l will be frozen before I believe your words."

Many of the True Monarch secretly sighed as they could see that Bai Han had a lot of emotional problems when it comes to his father. With their strength and status, they do not need to lie about such a thing. Of course, they also did not want to completely ruin their relations.h.i.+p with him; after all, he was an Emperor Offspring.

Unfortunately, this did not apply to all the members. The one who wanted to take power snorted coldly before saying: "Do not act as if you ever relied on yourself to accomplish anything. Do you think that it was your effort that granted you such a deep understanding of cultivation?

"I can imagine how many years you have spent listening to the founder preach the Dao, listening to his understanding of cultivation.

Bai Han clenched his hand until they turned red, while also glaring at that True Monarch with bloodshed eyes.

"Fate is unfair, but it was favorable to you. It granted you wealth, status, and power at birth. Instead of being grateful for these things, you forsaken them for Heaven knows what reason. But what has that decision gotten you?

"You were suppressed by w.a.n.g Tian in the last generation, and in this one, you were played like a fool by his son."

"You do not know me and the things that I have been through, so don"t act as if you do!" replied Bai Han.

The True Monarch wanted to say something, but another person said: "Enough. There is no need to further ruin our relations.h.i.+p. What the Academy needs now is to unite to deal with the situation, not play a blame game."

All the other people nodded. As for Bai Han, he gave one last look at these people before saying: "You will regret this." Then, he left the meeting hall without looking back.

"We should probably send someone to monitor him, less he does something drastic and affecting our Academy."

"That"s a good idea."

"Now, let"s talk about how to deal with the situation?"

"There is nothing we can do at the moment about our Academy"s lost of Qi Luck."

"Not necessarily."

"Oh, do you have an idea?"

"Yes. We can try to conquer a few other worlds to supplement our loss of Qi Luck."

"Hmm, that"s a good idea, but there is a lot of problem with this method. We have to spend a lot of time to discover these worlds, send people to conquer them, and linked the gathered Qi Luck with our Academy. Logistically speaking, it is not worth it."

"There is a reason that mostly Great Emperor can take place in planar warfare."

"However, this is still a good way to mediate our current situation."

"In that case, let"s vote."

"Agree!"

"Agree!"

All the True Monarchs agreed with this plan.

"Does anyone has any other ideas?"

"I think we should remove the focus of the world from us to something else. That way, we can become low-key and develop our strength."

"Indeed, but how do we accomplish this?"

"Didn"t Ji Song and w.a.n.g Wei set up a battle? With w.a.n.g Wei"s recent actions, anything related to him will become the main focus of the world."

"That could work, but the question is how do we accomplish this with the Tournament still going on."

"I think we should do this…" stated one of the True Monarch.

"Isn"t that a little too drastic?"

"Plus there is no precedent for doing this."

"In this situation, we do not have the luxury to worry about precedent."

"That"s true. So, let"s vote."

The majority of them voted for this plan, while a few voted against it.

"Now, let"s discuss how to deal with Sacred Son w.a.n.g Wei. Any ideas?"
