Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 484: I Do Not Wish To Harm Them, But They wish To Harm Me (1)

1st of November. Liu Wenyan, a person who had caused countless incidents, had departed.

The entire Great Xia seemed to have calmed down after his departure.

At the same time, a group of experts departed Great Xia. Nobody knew if their departure was related to Liu Wenyan's departure.

Peace returned to Great Xia. Everything seemed to have returned to how it was before.

...

Great Xia Cultural Research Academy.

With the arrival of a new month, it felt as though everything had been left in the past. There was no ongoing struggle. There was no ongoing plot.

Hong Tan had vanished from the public eye. Chen Yong had returned to the books depository. Bai Feng the troublemaker had left. Su Yu the troublemaker seemed to be suffering from an injury as he had been keeping a low profile.

Even Wu Jia had stopped appearing in public. She was busy forming new characters and preparing for her advancement into the Skysoar Realm.

With the multiple character faction retreating into the shadows, it was as though all conflict had stopped. Some people even started thinking that things would be better if the multiple character faction was gone.

...

Eventually, Su Yu heard about that.

Inside a teahouse.

Su Yu and Hu Zongji were having tea together. When he heard the news from Hu Zongji, he laughed, "They are free to think what they want. The multiple character faction is far more important than they believe. But if they think that everything will be fine once we're gone, sure. Let them believe what they want."

It was impossible to change the mind of people who only believed what they wanted to believe. For some people, the destruction of the multiple character faction would be a good thing as that would reduce the conflicts in the academy. Eventually, when it was their turn to be bullied by the single character faction, these same people would start wondering why nobody was helping them.

Su Yu was indifferent. While drinking tea, he asked, "How many characters have you formed?"

"Two."

Hu Zongji didn't know the reason for the question, but he still answered honestly.

"Human characters?"

"No. Devil characters." After a short silence, Su Yu said, "It's better if you shift your focus to human characters. You can do so since you have yet to spend much effort on these characters yet."

"This..." Hu Zongji was hesitant. "It's not that I don't trust you, but if I do that, my combat strength will drop. I'm not a Skysoar so I don't need to go to the battlefield yet, but even at the Skysoar Realm, human characters will still be very weak."

Su Yu nodded, "I know. If you don't plan on entering the Sunmoon Realm, you don't need to do this. But if you have the ambition to try reaching that realm, I believe you need to start preparing."

"The non-human characters are preventing many experts from entering the Sunmoon Realm." Su Yu thought for a bit and added, "But it's fine if you don't want to change now. You can wait until the Mountainsea Realm. It's still very far away from you."

Hu Zongji thought about it and nodded. He decided to wait and see.

Hu Zongji moved on from the topic and said, "I'm looking for you to tell you something. Early next month, the war academy students will come for their yearly challenge. You have not been seen outside for a while so I was afraid that you're still unaware about this."

Su Yu smiled, "Yeah, I heard about it. It doesn't matter. I am honestly too lazy to get involved in that. Don't look down on the students of our batch. All of them are hiding their strength. I won't need to do much during the challenges."

Hu Zongji said, "I thought you're going to wipe the floor with them and bask in the limelight yet again. That will show them the true strength of the students from our batch."

"There is no need for me to do that." Su Yu shook his head, "What's the point of making such a big ruckus? It won't be a bad idea to stay low-profile. In the future, those warriors might prove useful to us."

He was indifferent. Both Xia Huyou and Zhang Hao had told him about this. He couldn't even be bothered to get involved. Challenge matches? None of his business! He was still recuperating from his injuries. He couldn't fight yet. That was what he wanted the public to know.

Su Yu said, "The single character faction has been silent recently. Have they finally given up on targeting us?"

"Not really." Hu Zongji smiled, "They're dealing with an internal issue. Hu Wensheng has left seclusion and Liu Hong has reached the Cloudbreach Realm. With Elder Zheng's departure, they will need to appoint a new faction master. Their Cloudbreach cultivators are fighting for that position."

"I see."

So that was why his life had been so peaceful recently. Sure, the fact that most of the people in his faction was in seclusion had played a role in that, but the single character faction had also stopped targeting them.

Su Yu smiled, "If I get my senior sister to challenge the top 100 now, will anyone stop her?"

"I don't know." Hu Zongji shook his head, "I think Manager Zhou has yet to give up. He probably won't try anything if he manages to become the new faction master. But if he fails, he would definitely not give up on becoming the head manager instead. This was his chance to become an elder as a Cloudbreach."

"So what if he becomes an elder?" Su Yu found it stupid. "According to the rules, he would need to join the neutral faction if he takes that path. Wouldn't that be the same as restricting his own freedom?"

Hu Zongji said, "It's not a big deal to join the neutral faction. Do you really think he's doing this for the single character faction's benefit? After becoming an elder, he will gain the chance to cultivate in the Knowledge Seeking Realm. After returning as a Mountainsea, he will become a proper elder of the academy. At that time, this stipulation that he must be neutral will no longer have any effect on him. He only cares about that opportunity. His sole goal is to become a Mountainsea."

Su Yu nodded in agreement. True. There were signs that the single character faction, or to be precise, Zhou Pingsheng, had yet to give up. Otherwise, it wouldn't make sense for Di Feng to keep suppressing his advancement.

Even before this, Di Feng was already on the verge of breakthrough. After entering the Willpower Grotto, his willpower could barely be suppressed anymore. Someone in that position would only suppress their breakthrough if their characters were still not strong enough for a breakthrough. But it was more likely that Di Feng was holding back to keep targeting Su Yu.

Nevertheless, Su Yu still couldn't be bothered to pay too much attention to this matter. He would wait and see. If those fellows continued picking fights in December, he would start hitting back.

For now, he had a different priority. He was broke. He had to focus on that. He still owed Xia Huyou 1,100 merit points. He wanted to go out and earn some money. The single character faction could no longer be scammed so easily, but the buried treasure of the Divine Skywing Sect was still waiting for him.

But he also knew that now wasn't a good time for him to leave. The moment he left, something might happen. But he still wanted to leave. Firstly, he could make some money. Secondly, he might be able to lure some bastards out before killing them. Thirdly, he also needed to make preparations for the research center he was about to open. He needed money for that.

Additionally, he also needed money for the divine or devil blood essence that he would require for body forging after reaching the Skysoar Realm. As for his grandteacher's suggestion to pawn off the Wentan Research Center, he would only do that if he had absolutely no other option.

Thus, the Divine Skywing Sect's buried treasure was very important for him. Of course, he wouldn't go out immediately. He planned to reach the Infinite Strength Realm and form some characters before doing so. He would wait until he had the combat strength of a Skysoar first. Leaving now would simply be too risky.

"Zongji, I need your help to look for missions related to the Myriad Race Pit."

Su Yu said, "I wish to enter the Myriad Race Pit once. But the place is guarded by the Martial Dragon Guards so I can't enter without reason. Keep watch for a suitable mission for me."

"Sure."

Hu Zongji did not ask any questions. He only needed to take a look at the Missions Department after this.

"Also, I need you to gather the information of a few people for me..."

Su Yu whispered a few names. Hu Zongji was surprised, but he still nodded in agreement, "Ok. I'll help you."

"Be careful." Su Yu reminded, "Don't let them notice you. Don't directly ask about them."

"Don't worry."

Hu Zongji agreed without asking anything. After saying that, Su Yu sank into silence. Recently, he had dispersed a batch of voice transmission talismans in the academy.

He had not directly given these talismans to anyone. Instead, he had intentionally dropped these talismans somewhere to be picked up. Some had even been directly tossed into the residences of his targets.

Because of that, the Single Eradication Club had gained a lot more legitimate members. The chat room was no longer filled with Su Yu's smurf accounts. Of course, his smurf accounts were still quite active.

This strategy had been successful as a lot of people had joined the club out of curiosity. Naturally, there were also some people who had merely been silently lurking instead of joining.
