"I know what you are thinking. I also want to destroy the Spirit Sword Academy, but there is one question, have you ever considered it?"
"What's the problem?"
"What does the Supreme Elder mean?"
"Supreme Elder, if you have anything to say, just say it!"
Everyone looked at each other in confusion.
Sikong Yan nodded and said: "As far as I know, those are just a few small mines. If we go to full-scale war with the other party for this small benefit, do you think it is worth it or not?"
"Um?"
"this……"
Everyone frowned upon hearing this and understood what he meant, but the anger in their hearts could not be calmed down so easily, nor could they give up the idea of revenge just because of the Supreme Elder's words.
"With all due respect! It's certainly not worth it in terms of the mineral veins alone, but this fiasco involves the face and dignity of our Tianwu Academy, which cannot be measured by just a few mineral veins!"
"Yes! I think so too. In addition to those few mineral veins, we also lost so many disciples who we painstakingly cultivated, and four elders of the Moon Reaching Realm were killed. How can we not avenge this?"
"I feel that now is not the time to care about gains and losses, it is the time to take revenge in order to rectify the power of my Heavenly Martial God!"
"That's right! This matter does not need to be weighed at all. It involves the dignity of the college and cannot be compromised!"
"With the strength and foundation of our Tianwu Academy, is there any problem in destroying the Spirit Sword Academy?"
Everyone still insisted on their original opinions and did not give up because of the Supreme Elder's intervention.
"What you all said is correct, and I agree, but have you ever thought about another question?"
Sikong Yan smiled coldly, his eyes becoming deeper and deeper.
"If you have something to say, the Supreme Elder, just say it directly!"
The man in golden robe on the throne nodded slightly.
"Well! Based on our strength and foundation, it is certainly not a problem for us to destroy Spirit Sword Academy, but think about it, if our two families go to full-scale war, how will Thunder Academy react?"
Sikong Yan's simple words made everyone stunned.
"Thunder Academy! What does this matter have to do with them?"
"I know what the Supreme Elder means is that Lei Ming Academy will reap the benefits and wait for our two families to consume each other."
"In this way, they can completely dominate the surrounding area and become the only one in the family!"
They are all elders of the college, so their vision and knowledge are naturally extraordinary, and they understand the pros and cons without further explanation.
Sikong Yan nodded slowly: "That's the problem. A full-scale war is of great importance and must not be made hastily. Otherwise, the foundation of our Tianwu Academy will probably be destroyed!"
"What the Supreme Elder said makes sense, but won't we avenge ourselves?"
"Yes! Is this the end of the matter?"
"The small Spirit Sword Academy is so overwhelming that we don't dare to breathe?"
Everyone frowned and talked endlessly.
"No need to say it!"
The golden-robed man on the throne waved his hand gently, and everyone immediately fell silent.
As the dean of Tianwu Academy, he naturally has the most say in this matter, and the final decision must be made by him.
"Everyone knows the intentions of Thunder Academy. They want us to cause a big mess with Spirit Sword Academy so they can take advantage of the situation and reap the benefits! Of course, a full-scale war is not advisable, but several elders and many disciples cannot die in vain!
"
Everyone was moved when they heard this!
"The dean is right!"
"Dean gives the order, I am willing to lead a team to Spirit Sword Academy to avenge the dead elders and disciples!"
"He killed four of our elders. Let's retaliate to him at least eight times, and then kill hundreds of his disciples to be buried with him!"
At first glance, everyone could only retreat to the next best thing. If they could rush into the Spirit Sword Academy in a flying boat and kill them all, they would be able to breathe out evil and avenge their dead colleagues and disciples.
"No, you are thinking too simplistically! If that's the case, can you guarantee that you will come back alive? How is being so hasty and reckless different from committing suicide?"
The man in gold robe shook his head and snorted, a hint of anger flashing between his brows.
A depressing atmosphere quickly filled the hall, and everyone's faces were solemn and their brows were furrowed.
Sikong Yan shook his head and sighed: "Let me tell you, an all-out war is never advisable, but you can take revenge in another way!"
"oh?"
"Sir, please speak!"
Everyone listened attentively.
"Join the Thunder Academy and hold a competition among the three academies, allowing the top disciples from each academy to compete, regardless of life or death!"
Sikong Yan said in a deep voice.
"Hiss! Isn't this strategy a bit..."
Some people shook their heads and sighed, but stopped talking.
"You want to say that you're just scratching the surface, right?"
Sikong Yan spoke bluntly and with a sneer on his face.
"Ahem! Don't worry, Supreme Elder. I just feel that there is no satisfaction in revenge like this!"
Sikong Yan sneered and shook his head: "You are wrong! Only in this way can we force out their strongest disciples, and we can take the opportunity to kill their top geniuses. In this way, the Spirit Sword Academy will be at a low point for at least several decades, unable to compete with
Let’s compete!”
"In this way, the mineral resources along the border will be available to us at our fingertips!"
"I understand! This is a very clever plan by the Supreme Elder!"
"Not bad! It seems that our idea is still too simple. I'm really ashamed!"
Everyone's spirits were lifted, and the depression in their hearts quickly dissipated.
An all-out war will only lead to losses for both sides, and forcing one's way into the Spirit Sword Academy will lead to death in vain. This is the only long-term solution!
"But, will Thunder Academy agree to our proposal?"
"The competition between the three academies has not happened in many years, and their disciples are stronger. If we were to compete, wouldn't our disciples suffer a loss?"
"Yes, this problem is really troublesome!"
The elders frowned, shook their heads and sighed.
"Have you forgotten that last year Thunder College proposed a competition between the two houses, but we rejected it?"
The golden-robed man on the throne shook his head and smiled, a light flashing in his eyes.
"Understood!"
"That's right, if the dean hadn't said it, I would have really forgotten it!"
Everyone woke up immediately.
Thunder College already has this intention, and as long as Tianwu College proposes, they will definitely not refuse.
Sikong Yan nodded and smiled: "We have made an agreement with Thunder Academy in advance. The disciples will only be divided into winners and losers, not life and death. As for Spirit Sword Academy, let them seek their own happiness!"
"Hahahaha! The Supreme Elder is still thoughtful!"
"The Supreme Elder is wise, the Dean is wise!"
"Spirit Sword Academy is going to be in big trouble this time!"
There was a burst of laughter in the main hall, and the previous dark clouds were swept away.
Everyone can't wait to hold this three-academy competition and see the scene of the disciples of the Spirit Sword Academy dying in the arena!
…
Spirit Sword Academy.
After returning, Elder Han reported everything about the mine trip to the college in detail, and at the same time proposed to the senior management to list Jiang Tian as a "core disciple."
With his strong recommendation, the proposal was quickly approved and announced.
Also receiving the award were several other core disciples with outstanding performance. Of course, the most dazzling one was Jiang Tian!
