Chapter 1311 Meeting Emperor Kong

Wang Wei understood. Most factions will not tell their disciples matters higher than their cultivation. He was unique in the sense that he was already involved in things about transcendence while still a little mortal.

"What is your role in the Academy?" Wang Wei asked while observing the surroundings. "Are you a teacher or a student? What about Xu Shi and Lin Fan?"

"I'm a first-class teacher," Bai Han said with pride. "As for them? They are high-level students."

"First Class Teacher? So, does that mean Empyreans are second class, and Paragon will be third class? Quite ambitious."

"What Emperor is not ambitious, especially the ones who rose from the lower dimension," Bai Han replied.

"True that," Wang Wei agreed. "What's the difference between students and teachers?" Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Teachers' purpose is, well, to teach. Students are trained to be Elders or Guardians of the Academy. They are the protectors and main fighting force."

"Does that mean students are the Academy's future goon and the teachers are future Deans?" Wang Wei asked in a strange tone.

"Of course not," Bai Han immediately denied it. "According to my father's rules, students can become teachers, and teachers can revert their status to students. The resources available to them are the same; the main difference between them is their focus.

"Students focus on their cultivation without worrying about training others or giving lectures. However, they must also take missions to contribute to the Academy. Meanwhile, teachers cultivate by training others."

Wang Wei understood the system. The Literary Way can increase its strength by cultivating students. As long as their students have specific achievements — let's say, proving the Dao and becoming Emperor — they can receive feedback that can dramatically increase their strength and cultivation realm in proportion to how much they contributed to their student's success. It's not impossible for someone with low talent but is an excellent teacher to use the Literary Way to prove the Dao (with a Heaven Will), but they must contribute immensely to their students' success or train multiple students and have a net positive influence in their accomplishment.

"Are there any requirements to become a teacher?" Wang Wei.

"Yes, and there are a few, with the primary ones being that all teachers must condense their Righteous Qi or cultivate an auxiliary technique with the same effect."

"That's a wise move," Wang Wei praised. Righteous Qi can give birth to Literary Talents, which vary based on the scholar's path. However, since the academy took the teaching path, all their condensed talents are biased toward that area. As such, it's normal for the Academy's teacher to have skills that can help their students. A perfect example is Lin Fan's former teacher, who had the talent to create the ideal training plan for his students. There is also Bai Han's talent called [Preaching], which can drastically increase a person's understanding after listening to his sermon.

Wang Wei chatted with Bai Han as he observed the environment. He saw numerous sights: teachers giving outdoor lessons, students hunting in the forest, and even finding "fortunate encounters." He also noticed countless hidden dimensions in this world and guessed they were the Academy's training secret realms.

"I should ask you that question."

"You jest. I'm a happily married man," Emperor Kong swiftly said. His wife was not pleased with his friendship with Xun Junyao, even after explaining countless times it was more of a business relationship, so he immediately ended this topic after realizing he could not get more information from Wang Wei about what happened that day.

"What do you think of the Academy?" Emperor Kong asked, changing the topic.

"It's wonderful," Wang Wei replied sincerely.

"I'm sure it's nothing compared to your sect," Emperor Kong replied humbly.

"I wouldn't know," Wang Wei said as he sipped his wine. Unfortunately, he was conversing, so he had to cancel the dreaming effect.

"However, I mean what I said. It's beyond impressive that you can build such a foundation in such a short time span." In this era, every faction was being weakened or destroyed, but the Emperor Enlightening Academy rose and prospered. This is due to Emperor Kong's years of planning, calculations, and ability to adapt to the situation.

Emperor Kong smiled. Although he never showed it, he was indeed proud of his accomplishments. However, they were far from enough, so he constantly reminded himself that this was the beginning.

"While you're here, I'll take this opportunity to thank you."

"For what?"

"For Xu Shi, Lin Fan, and everything you did in the lower dimension," Emperor Kong explained. "The rise of the lower dimension's sect brought me tremendous Luck Blessing, and your presence even saved our academy."

"Oh?" Wang Wei understood the first part, but he had no idea what Emperor Kong meant by the latter.

"These people were unhappy with the prosperity of the Academy, so they were planning on suppressing me," Emperor Kong explained calmly. "However, they soon were distracted by your presence to the point they'd forgotten. Then, before I had to do anything, the world changed drastically, and they entered the frontier."

"That's just a manifestation of your great destiny." Wang Wei did not take credit for this as he did nothing to deserve it.

"Even if you don't accept this karma, I must still repay you for the others," Emperor Kong replied calmly. Xu Shi and Lin Fan became the foundation of his Academy, so the help Wang Wei provided to them formed a deep karmic debt. Kong understood the negative effect of not paying karmic debts — especially to a master of Karma Dao. He did not want anything to affect the Academy's Luck, so even if Wang Wei did not say anything or acknowledge it, he would find a way to repay the favor.

"That's fine by me," Wang Wei nodded.
