Chapter 680 The Immortal Academy
During the Warring States period, the power was like a forest, the strong and weak were uncertain, and they needed to join forces, so there were the political strategists.
Governing a country required law. Only by governing a country with the law could the people live and work in peace, so legalists came into being.
The emergence of Hundred Schools of Thought was born in accordance with the needs of the world.
The situation was different now. This was already the era of transcendent cultivation. The school he wanted to build could only belong to him. He wanted to have a sense of belonging to his side, and he wanted to join the transcendent arts. These skills could make one stronger, create more wealth, and become a means of making a living. They could also be relied on to strengthen one's body.
He wanted to turn the new academy into a Holy Land for cultivating talents.
Not only did he want to absorb all of Jixia Academy's strengths, but he also wanted to use them to extend his own strengths so that he could become better and stronger. He wanted the academy to become the talent center of the Kingdom of Dawn and even the Holy Land in the hearts of the entire human race.
Once he was on the right track, he would no longer have to worry about talent from now on, and he would be able to obtain a steady stream of talent.
This was the most important thing!
"Country Lord's idea is very promising. Each of the transcendent arts is profound and unfathomable. When cultivated to the extreme, one would have incredible power. If we can integrate it into the academy, it will definitely become a major feature. It might even make our academy more famous. The people under the rule of the Kingdom of Dawn and even all the human beings can spread these skills and benefit from it."
Huang Chengyan's eyes brightened. He couldn't help but look forward to the scene that Li Xiang had described.
If it could really reach this level, it would definitely become a Supreme Academy with a name that would be passed down through the ages. It would become a Supreme Holy Land in the eyes of countless scholars and even cultivators.
"If that's really possible, then the academy will become a Holy Land in the hearts of thousands of people. This would be an unparalleled help in attracting talents from all fields. I think that the academy should be built, and the bigger the scale, the better. If we can use a rare treasure as the foundation of the school, it will definitely attract more talent." Zhou Qing muttered.
If he really wanted to build an academy, he naturally couldn't be rash.
Ordinary construction methods weren't enough for a school that had high hopes. It might need to be demolished, expanded, or even transformed in the future. Rather than that, he hoped that this academy could be built with rare treasures.
However, he also knew that rare treasure buildings had always been hard to come by.
Even though Li Xiang had many rare treasures on him, he still couldn't get everything he wanted.
Every treasure was extremely precious, and it wasn't something that could be obtained just because one wanted it. Everything depended on one's luck.
"If it's a school, then I have one in my possession. Take a look and see if it's the rare treasure building you want. This was a treasure that had fallen from the sky and landed in the ruins of the school when I first arrived in this world. I've been planning to lead the students to rebuild Jixia Academy after I've gotten out of this predicament, so I've always kept it in my hands and have never shown it to anyone. It seems like it's the will of the heavens today." Cai Yong suddenly said.
He took out an item and placed it on the low table in front of him.
Upon closer inspection, it was a miniature model of a building.
There were houses, residences, fake mountains, lakes, and all kinds of buildings. It was a miniature academy. One could even faintly sense a trace of tranquility. As such, Cai Yong had carefully kept it the moment she had obtained it.
Even if they managed to escape the ruins of Jixia Academy, they could still use this rare treasure building to rebuild the academy. Now that he had taken it out, he had the intention of letting Li Xiang handle it.
"This rare treasure building is indeed the layout of the academy." Huang Chengyan looked at it carefully and his face revealed a look of joy.
"It's indeed the will of the heavens on the Country Lord. He's currently vexed over how to find a suitable building for the academy, and Mr. Cai took out a rare treasure from the academy. Isn't this the fate of the heavens? It seems that the Country Lord's establishment of the academy is the will of the heavens, and he will definitely be blessed by the heavens." Zhou Qing's eyes lit up as he said with a smile.
"I wonder if the name of the academy has been decided?"
Cai Yong looked at Li Xiang and asked.
"Right now, we are in the Myriad World Continent, and the place we are in is but a pellet. It is even more difficult for us to survive. We struggle to survive among the Myriad races' fierce beasts, and the human race fell to the bottom of the food chain, becoming food and having their lives as worthless as grass. However, I firmly believe that one day, the human race will stand above the Myriad races and the Kingdom of Dawn will be eternal and immortal." Li Xiang's body emitted an invisible aura and an unimaginable belief.
"Today, we shall build the Immortal Academy!"
Li Xiang took a deep breath and decided on the name of the academy.
These words weren't limited to the Star Palace. Instead, they quickly spread to the outside world, covering the entire Kingdom of Dawn, and fell into the ears of countless people. It was transmitted to the ears of all the soldiers.
The Immortal Academy had existed since ancient times!
"What? Building an academy... The Immortal Academy? Is this an academy that the Castellan personally established?"
"Eternity means longevity, eternity means immortality. The Immortal Academy... If it's really built, how glorious would it be?"
"Good, good, good. The Castellan has already given the order to open academies in every city and teach children how to read. There are already scholars in charge of it, imparting knowledge. There are schools in villages and academies in towns. It is said that in the future, he will build an academy in the city. From the bottom to the top, the current academy will definitely be at the top."
"That's great. If my family's children can also enter the Immortal Academy in the future, then it'll really bring honor to our ancestors. I wonder when the Immortal Academy will be established and what they can teach..."
In thousands of cities, countless commoners were in an uproar, and they were secretly happy.
"The Immortal Academy is so bold!"
"Eternal immortality, eternal existence. What a profound meaning!"
"Castellan Li wants to build an academy. I wonder how it will compare to Jixia Academy. The Kingdom of Dawn is indeed prosperous, and there are many things that we have never seen before. I don't want to be an official. I can't do the scheming and scheming in the officialdom. Since Jixia Academy is no longer around, it's not bad to be able to enter the Immortal Academy."
"I wonder what kind of academy this is. Does it welcome cultivators from the hundred schools?"
