Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Chapter 328 New Missions!

Oh?

A rise in difficulty level?

Dorian raised his brow, lazily staring at his new missions.

[Main Mission: With the Academy now open and ready for business, the host must complete a total of 4 primary sub-tasks.

•Task 1: The host must raise at least 80% of Disciples to Grade 5 H-Rank Exorcists.

•Task 2: The Academy disciples aren't the only ones that need to rank up. The host must raise the levels of all teachers & Caretakers to Grade 9 G-rank Exorcists.

Deadline for first 2 tasks: 25 days.

Punishment for failure: Will be determined later when or if failed.

Rewards for completion of first 2 tasks:

•500-step Heavenly Stairway of Tribulation.

•Gravity restricting room upgrade. (able to pressurize strengths up to the final Dan of the 2nd Dao, the Spirit Realm.)

• And finally, 2,000 Perfected Grade 3 books on all sect professions, ranging from low-tier to high-tier ranks.]

NOTE: The host should note that according to the heavens, the attack will fall in 2 and a half years from now when all the planets will align.

By then, all teachers must be at either Triple-S exorcists or Divine ranked exorcists. It would be best to have them reach Celestial level, though the system believes this might be pushing it.]

Dorian thought so too.

No matter how much the system might try to pump in qi and forcefully allow them to grow, the Celestial rank was one that, even with the blessings they received now, it would still take thousands and thousands of years to achieve such a rank.

You have to know that humans that reach the peak of Celestial status could directly ascend and become lesser guardian panels of the worlds they looked after.

That's why it was so hard to cross that boundary between the heavens and the mortal world.

Back in his former world, only 15 people in the entire history of mankind had achieved this goal.

And this was saying a lot, seeing as exorcism had been a thing in that world since the beginning of time.

It was so... So... Hard. Extremely hard!

So the system was right to think he would only be able to train everyone to Divine rank at most.

But though the system made it look easy, teaching Divine rank was also an incredible feat that many yearned to reach.

.

It was a matter of fact that crossing into the S-class ranks alone, followed by the Divine rank, was mind-blowing.

If those in his former world knew the system's plans to change many here into S-rank and Divine Rank exorcists, they would puke blood and die of envy.

Many stayed for centuries, trying to touch the borders of these realms to no avail either due to lack of opportunities or resources.

Yet, those here were receiving it all on a platter of gold.

Dorian managed his chin deeply.

The land here is too blessed and will only continue growing better and better until the danger ahead is destroyed.

What's more, the rewards from the system are of the purest quality and grades, with no impurities.

It made the entire place feel like a haven for all cultivators.

? He planned to focus on this first batch of disciples, allowing them to reach S-rank, double S-rank, Triple S-rank rank, and even the first grade of the Divine rank before the big battle unfolds.

With this strength, they should be able to deal with the top underworld generals and other dangerous characters.

As for the teachers, they would work alongside himself in dealing with the main bosses when the big day arrived.

He, Dorian, wasn't Omnipotent.

He liked to have a million backups before the big day. And getting extra help was something he would never shy from.

To fight against beings that can destroy an entire city with a flick of a finger was no joke.

It would be a tight battle. That's why they needed all the tricks they could get.

Already, humanity was at a far disadvantage. But what could they do but fight?

A deep light flickered through Dorian's last eyes.

'This wouldn't be too much of a problem if I could reach Celestial rank.'

But how was that possible? Even he, who was confident in all he did, felt his chances extremely slim in this matter.

'At most, I might reach the peak stage of the Divine realm.'

.

Thinking of his plans, Dorian's main focus would be on this first batch of disciples, teachers, and caretakers.

As for those who come to the academy in the later batches, he would of course, focus on them, but not as much as those in the first batch.

His next official recruitment time was 3 months.

So, do you know how much the first batch would've grown by then?

His current tasks were to push them to the Grade 5 H-rank status in 25 Days.

He reckoned in another 2 months, they might all be F-rank exorcists.

The clock was ticking, and those who came later would only reach lesser heights than those who came in now... Unless they were true some and daughters of heaven with extraordinary innate talents to catch up.

Even so, he would still train the following batches to the best of his capabilities.

Once danger strikes the entire world, these batches would be the ones flying all over to assist in ridding the world from creatures less powerful than the mighty generals and periods in the underworld.

They also had to keep everyone safe.

.

As for the rewards for the first 2 tasks, they were indeed very enticing.

The 500-step Stairway of Tribulation was a heavenly treasure on its own. Just taking a single step would make one face their inner demons, unravel any knots and improve their cultivation by leaps and bounds.

Even he would have to use the stairway to improve fast, though he felt he had no inner demons.

He, Dorian, couldn't think of anything that would stay him while walking on the stairway. He had no guilt in his heart and no regrets.

Dorian shrugged.

[•Task 3: To keep the academy in order, keeping the teachers and disciples in order, the host must organize the Academy's first competition.

Dateline: End of the month, coincidentally (In 25 days)

Rewards:

•Unlocking 2nd floor of Alchemy Room, with 100 Low to Mid-Tier 'Ordinary' Grade alchemy furnaces.

•Unlocking 1st Floor of Blacksmith Workshop with all essential smithing equipment available.

•50 Low-Tier Apex Grade furnaces… 50 random Low to Mid-Tier Ordinary grade weapons… and 20 random Low-Tier Apex Grade weapons available for Disciple or Teacher Purchase.]

So good?

Dorian was pleasantly surprised.

You have to know that when it came to weapons, artifacts, and puppets, their grading system was different.

First, there were the non-spirit infused types, with the least being 'Ordinary grade' and the highest being 'Apex grade.'

Following that, one would enter the Grades that were Spirit Infused.

And from low to high, the grades were;

>Spirit grade

>Monarch

>Immortal

>Celestial Grade.

And of course based on impurities, density, and quality, each Grade ranked from: Low-tier, middle-tier, high-tier to Peak.

.

'Not bad...' Dorian blurted out.

With such rewards underway, how could he not host the academy competition?

Now, for the next task.

[•Task 4: In another 3 months, the academy will once again open its doors to recruit yet another batch of both teachers and disciples.

But with the battle involving the entire world, the host is to spread his branches into at least 3 other nations.

Amongst the next incoming batch, 80% of them must come from foreign lands. The hist doesn't seem to worry about the language barrier since once in the academy, everyone speaks the same language.]

This was true. Those here didn't even know it, but the words they spoke were vastly different from what they initially enunciated.

'It's as I expected.'

Dorian had already noticed these changes long ago.

Generally, after a person breakthrough their mortal shell, learning a new language becomes a breeze. So as time goes on, he expected them to all learn each other's languages.

After all, he would be sending them out in missions throughout the next 2 and a half years to eradicate evil all around.

So why should language be their barrier?

Dorian calmly read through the task.

[The host is to open 3 portals in each chosen nation when the time comes.

Dateline: 3 months.

Punishment: Withdrawal of Protective formation around Academy Sleeping quarters.

Rewards:

•Milky Pond Of Helixian Growth. (Can open and expand qi-channels the only one stays in them. Usage time varies depending on one's strength.)

•Expansion of Island, creating Hidden Inheritance land to be opened 2 months after next recruiting batch entry.

•And finally, 50 random beasts from various unknown worlds.]

...

Dorian stared at the rewards deeply.

From the heavenly stairway to the milky pond, to all sorts of treasure... It seems the heavens had given him quite a good surprise.

Alright.

He was pleased.

Things were moving as planned. Tonight, many would have their first experience, staying on the academy's grounds.

But while it was both peaceful and exciting for them... Outside the academy, many in my free colder by the second.

"Report." A cold and eerie voice bellowed out.

"Before the sun rises, I want to know whether the hell the Tian boy had vanished to!"
