Chapter 381: If I'm Brave Enough, The Whole Academy Could Be Mine (2)

Xia Huyou shrugged. When he saw Su Yu glaring at him, he helplessly said, "Don't look at me like this. Maybe the Xia Family is only curious. Instructor Liu has kept the character with him for 50 years with nothing to show for it. The Xia Family is really curious. Just what is going on? A senior of the Xia Family is also in a similar situation yet Marquis Xia is refusing to even help that senior."

"How heartless." Su Yu cursed.

Xia Huyou shrugged. He really didn't know the exact story. He was still too weak to get involved in the affairs of his seniors.

Su Yu inhaled deeply and said, "Then I'll start an auction. I refuse to believe that I can't find a single person with a spine. I won't sell it for money. I'm only selling it for the assistance of Mountainseas. I will sell it to the ones willing to help."

"It is really not proper to involve warriors in this conflict. Su Yu, it's better to just sell the art for some money..."

"Piss off." Su Yu scolded, "I insist on involving the warriors. What about it? You think I'm afraid? If push comes to shove, I'll just join a war academy. Zheng Yunhui told me that his grandpa loves talents. I'll simply go under the Zheng Family if I really have no choice."

"..."

Xia Huyou was left completely speechless. After a long while, he said, "There...really is a chance that the Zheng Family will buy your art."

"Will the Xia Family try to ruin that deal?"

"Don't worry. That won't happen." Xia Huyou shook his head, "Since the Xia Family has said that they will stay neutral, they won't go back on their words. If the old man from the Zheng Family decides to get involved, that is his personal affair. It would be fine as long as he doesn't drag the entire war academy into it as well."

"Then I'll do just that." Su Yu said, "Help me invite some Mountainseas over. As for those below that realm, forget about it. Also tell them my intention. Those who are too cowardly can forget about coming."

"Sure. But my service charge..."

"Get those Mountainseas to pay. You can charge them as much as you want. I don't have any money."

Su Yu couldn't even be bothered to say more.

"How about the venue?"

"Do it in the academy."

"We can't." Xia Huyou shook his head, "This is the Great Xia Cultural Research Academy. The other Mountainseas won't enter carelessly to avoid misunderstandings. After all, Principal Wan is still in the academy."

"Oh?" Su Yu smiled, "What do you suggest?"

"Xia Trade Company in the city..."

"No." Su Yu refused unhesitatingly. He said, "Just do it right outside the academy gate. I'll stand inside the academy. They will stand a few meters outside the academy. If they disagree, forget it."

"..."

Xia Huyou was dumbstruck. What the fuck? Was there a need to be so cautious? Really?

"Su Yu, is this really proper?"

"What's so improper about that?" Su Yu said in astonishment, "You can never be too careful. These days, not even the Great Xia City is a safe place anymore. What can I do if even the Xia Family is encouraging internal conflict? In the past, safety was still guaranteed in the city. But now...I believe the academy is safer. At the very least, there is a principal here that might act at any time."

"I'll be standing right behind the entrance while they will stand outside. That should be fine, right?" Su Yu said, "Since they are Mountainseas, I reckon they won't care about these small issues. If they really want to buy the art, they can come. If not, they can fuck right off. Don't tell me it's improper. I don't care. They are free to not buy it if they disagree."

"I have no interest in getting killed right after stepping out of the academy. Even if you guys manage to capture and execute the killer...wouldn't I still be dead?" Su Yu smiled, "The Xia Family has managed this city for over 300 years yet you guys can't even ensure the safety of your subjects. I am truly amazed. You are on the verge of getting your second Invincible yet you're causing so much disturbance in your own territory. Truly amazing."

"..."

Xia Huyou looked embarrassed. There was nothing he could say to that. In fact, even he was perplexed and unsatisfied with the stand his family had taken. A conflict between the single and multiple character factions had actually ruined the prestige his family had taken hundreds of years to build. That was not good at all.

He really couldn't understand what his second granduncle was thinking. Sure, his second granduncle had given him an explanation, but he still disagreed. As far as he was concerned, this was the time for them to take action and suppress both factions harshly.

Just cut down anyone who dared to keep running their mouth after that. This issue could be solved easily. Liu Wenyan only needed to show the Divine Character. But since he claimed that he still couldn't materialize the character, there was nothing they could do. Of course, Liu Wenyan's request to wait until he reached the Invincible Realm would definitely not be accepted.

They could accept giving him a time limit with the threat that they would make things simple and cut him down if he still couldn't show the character at the end of the time limit. Would Liu Wenyan still insist that he couldn't materialize the character then?

As for the single character faction, they were definitely not qualified to take a look at that character. The character would only be shown to those with the rights to study it. And after all those people were shown the character, they would all be sent back where they came from.

If anyone dared to keep making trouble after that, they would come to learn that the Xia Family's blade was still sharp.

Great Zhou would be unhappy with that?

So what?

The Xia Family was already showing them a lot of respect by allowing them to take a look at the character. If the Xia Family really wanted to be an asshole, all those people wouldn't even get to take a look at the character.

As for the struggle between the various prefectures...Xia Huyou personally believed that it was pointless. The two holy lands should simply take control and force a union of all prefectures. Who would dare to actually disobey the two holy lands? Basically, he couldn't understand what all those big shots were actually thinking.

"Are you sure you're doing your auction at the academy entrance?"

"Yes."

Su Yu had no hesitation. What stupid question. He definitely wouldn't leave the academy. In the academy, he could still rely on Wan Tiansheng's strength as long as he followed the rules. Who knew if someone would try to kill him outside the academy to create more chaos?

Xia Huyou was starting to get a headache. His second granduncle intended to have this fellow take a stroll outside the academy. But this fellow was actually refusing to step outside. What should he do now?

"Su Yu, I still think it's improper to do it at the academy entrance. Also, to be honest, you can attract hostility easily by selling this art in the academy. Aren't you afraid that all the cultural researchers would start targeting you? I still think you should maintain a low profile..."

"Would they not know about the sale if I keep a low profile?" Su Yu rolled his eyes, "It's completely pointless since everyone will know anyway."

"That's still better than doing it publicly."

"Fine. Forget it." Su Yu said, "I’m not selling anymore. Maybe I'll sell it in the future."

"No!"

Xia Huyou was really speechless. Was this fellow really so cautious? He believed that the capital was still quite safe.

"I am afraid that if you do it openly, it will be treated as a black market transaction..."

"I won't be selling it for merit points." Su Yu nonchalantly said, "What can they do? This is something we came up with ourselves. We can sell it to anyone we want. I can even sell it to the principal. Wait, that's a good idea. Do you think I can tempt him to make a move with the art?"

"..."

Xia Huyou was starting to get tired. Forget it. This fellow was insisting on staying in the academy. Fine.

"Wait! Fine, I'll contact the Mountainseas for you. When do you want to hold your auction?"

"When do you think the fight will break out?"

Xia Huyou thought about it and said, "Soon. When your grandteacher returns, the final clash will happen. Probably in a day or two."

"Then I'll do it tomorrow."

Su Yu was very straightofrward. As for the matter of money, now was not the time to be thinking about money. If he could get the help of several Mountainseas, that would be worth it.

He said, "By the way, I still have 5,000 merit points. Buy some mountainbreak bull blood essence for me. I accept five elemental blood essence as well. I only want those two types of blood essence."

"Why are you still buying so much blood essence? Are you going to keep opening acupoints? You're not going to enter the Infinite Strength Realm?"

"What's the rush?" Su Yu said, "What can the Infinite Strength Realm do for me? So what if you're a first or second or third stage Infinite Strength cultivator? You might not be stronger than me. I am going to open more acupoints. That way, I can save a lot of time at the Infinite Strength Realm. I need to plan for the future, right? I can even save more time at the Mountainsea Realm doing this."

"Fine."

Xia Huyou was speechless. This fellow was really planning very far ahead. He couldn't help but to admire Su Yu's patience. It was reasonable to say that if Su Yu broke through now, he would probably take a year or two to reach the Skysoar Realm through physical cultivation alone. But this fellow did not seem to care about that.

After seeing Xia Huyou off, Su Yu left as well.

...

Mental Tempering Garden.

Special zone.

When Zhang Hao saw Su Yu, he said in excitement, "Brother Su, you're finally here! What's the update on the matter we discussed? I can't wait to start!"

Su Yu smiled, "Be patient. It hasn't been that long. I am thinking of a way to peel the ability imprint out of the blood essence. My teacher is not around so I have to do it myself. Brother Zhang, why are you even more impatient than me?"

"Doesn't being impatient fit my exploding character?"

Zhang Hao laughed. When Su Yu heard that, he laughed as well.
