Chapter 378: Blatantly Helping The Enemy (2)

Liu Hong thought about it and nodded, "You're right. Then we can only get the other top 10 students to help us. We can also get the Foreign Students Faculty to help. We can even get the help of the veteran students from the Elderly District..."

Zhou Pingsheng sank into a short silence before saying, "We have a lot of veteran students in our faction. We even have a few that are stuck at peak Mental Tempering Stage and ninth-stage Infinite Strength Realm. These people are no weaker than Zhan Hai."

They had a lot of veteran students. The Skysoar Realm was a bottleneck that many people were stuck at. Many would remain stuck for decades. These veteran students had powerful Divine Characters, strong willpower, and incredible physical strength.

They also knew a lot of martial techniques and possessed a lot of Divine Characters. Apart from their inability to advance, they were actually quite useful as some of them were even stronger than Zhan Hai.

Zhou Pingsheng frowned, "But according to the academy rules, those at 30 and below are not at the same level as those above 30..."

Liu Hong smiled, "Senior Brother Zhou, I know that. I also know that Su Yu is good at playing with the rules."

The moment those words were said, the faces of Xia Yuwen and Zhou Pingsheng fell.

Liu Hong said, "But...we are the ones with the authority to do something about the rules. We can simply organize a tournament and not limit it to those at 30 and below, allowing anyone below the Skysoar Realm to join. And as long as we can provide a reward that can attract Su Yu, he would definitely bite the bait. And once that happens, everything will be under our control."

Liu Hong confidently said, "For example, he is probably trying to enter the Infinite Strength Realm. Fusing acupoints is hard and the heavenly source fruit is very helpful for him. The acupoint fusion pill and the acupoint purifying talisman are also helpful. Does he want these treasures?

"With his confidence, if he wants these treasures, would he join the tournament? We can even offer a slot in the Willpower Grotto as the reward. At that time, the myriad race students and the geniuses of the various batches will gladly join the tournament. Anyone below the Skysoar Realm will join.

"Who wouldn't want to join? Who wouldn't want to enter the Skysoar Realm? At that time, we won’t even need our people to make a move. For the sake of the slot, those people will definitely move against Su Yu. They won't be pulling their punches since he is definitely strong enough to compete against them."

Liu Hong stopped to take a sip of tea and said, "There are many ways we can deal with Su Yu. The question is, are we willing to pay the price? In truth, we already lost a lot. If this continues, the losses we accumulate will surpass the value of a slot into the Willpower Grotto."

Hearing his words, a lot of people nodded. Someone agreed, "That's right. This is a good idea. This idea has my support."

"I think it's good as well. With this plan, we won't need to put the lives of our students on the line anymore. They won't have to spend months in recuperation and fall behind their peers anymore. The disruptions to the top 100 are going to keep inflicting us more and more losses if things continue as they are."

"..."

More and more people voiced their agreement. This was a plan where they could send Zhan Hai or even those from the Elderly District against Su Yu without sacrificing anyone from their side. That was an excellent idea.

Zhou Pingsheng frowned, "I'm only afraid that we will only help Su Yu grow even stronger. He is too talented. How long has he even been in the academy? Look at how strong he already is. If he really manages to get the slots or the other benefits we are using as bait..."

Xia Yuwen glanced at him and said, "Keep these thoughts out of your mind. You need to know that the Devil Subduing Army is the prefect's exclusive property. Anyone daring to stretch their hand into that army will pay with their life."

"I understand." Zhou Pingsheng wasn't stupid. He said, "I don't intend to do anything. I mean we can arrange for Su Yu's father to be assigned more missions. It is reasonable for a soldier to assist a cultural researcher with missions, right?

"There are too many experts in the Allheaven Battlefield. A normal soldier can die very easily there. If the worst really happens, would Su Yu still have the mood to keep creating trouble for us?"

"..."

Liu Hong was filled with disdain. What was this fool thinking? The moment he was discovered, he would be executed. He could court death as much as he wanted, but he better not drag them down with him.

Xia Yuwen frowned, "Don't create further trouble than required. He is only a normal soldier. Why put your effort on him? Just dealing with Su Yu is enough. If you dare to mess around with the army and the Devil Subduing Army discovers it, the consequences would be far more serious than what even your teacher can handle."

Zhou Pingsheng thought about it and nodded. That was actually right. Messing around with the military was still quite risky. Forget it. If he was discovered, even if the mission he arranged was a regular mission, he would still be in great trouble.

"In that case, we'll follow Liu Hong's plan. Our best option is a tournament with no age limit. As long as one is below the Skysoar Realm, one can join it. That won't break any academy rules.

"I'll try to ask for a few slots of the Willpower Grotto from my teacher. I'll also try to get some other rewards for the tournament. I will take care of this. Additionally, we need to make sure that Wu Jia is not in the top 100 by the time December ends."

Xia Yuwen did not care about these details. He stood up and said, "I only need this guarantee from you. You guys will deal with Su Yu. Also, make an arrangement for my student to enter the books depository's ninth floor, Manager Zhou."

"You're talking about Zhou Hao?"

"Yes." Zhou Pingsheng frowned, "That...would be hard. The ninth floor is under Chen Yong's control. He watches over that place like a hawk. When I brought a group over previously, he lost his temper. I'm afraid that he would really go crazy if I continue provoking him."

"Just force Chen Yong to leave the academy to get an opening." Xia Yuwen said nothing else and left.

After he left, someone said, "The people from the Xia Family are really still quite overbearing. Look at how he comes and leaves as he wishes when this is our meeting."

It was as though a meeting of the single character faction had turned into Xia Yuwen's personal playground.

Zhou Pingsheng looked at the person who had spoken with a frown and said, "Are you going to be the one to tell him off? We are currently in a partnership with him. Since my teacher is not around, don't create a conflict with him needlessly."

"Heh." Someone sneered.

Meanwhile, Liu Hong was merely watching the show. Inwardly, he was clear that Zhou Pingsheng was doing this for the sake of getting the position of the faction master.

Zheng Yuming had been seriously injured and it was starting to become clear that Xia Yuwen was going to lend his support to Zhou Pingsheng when competing for the position of the new faction master. But there were a few other ninth-stage Cloudbreach cultivators in the faction. And these people were naturally unhappy to see that.
