"Secondly, I want to promote my disciple's business a bit. I believe many of you have noticed a recently established Morning Rain Pavilion that completely replaced the Myriad Pill Palace's stores." Yun Lintian said.
"This pavilion runs by my disciple, Yun Chenyu. It mainly engages in an alchemy business. However, the price will be reasonable, and the processing fee will be very cheap. Anyone who wants to buy and sell medicinal and precious herbs can visit it. I can guarantee that everyone will be satisfied."
Hearing this, many people immediately understood Yun Lintian's intention. Although he had no intention of becoming a king, he still monopolized some businesses.
However, those people who had visited the Morning Rain Pavilion before could see more than anybody. The price of the goods inside was extremely cheap, several times cheaper than any similar goods in the current market.
At the same time, the Morning Rain Pavilion had also given a high price to sellers, much higher than anyone they had ever seen. With this, all the middlemen would definitely go extinct because no one would sell things to them anymore.
Thinking of this, the eyes of the people around the world lit up. Especially ordinary people. From now on, they didn't have to be suppressed by the middleman anymore.
Yun Lintian saw the changes in everyone's expression and knew they had figured it out.
He said further. "The second topic is about the growth of our world. As everyone had experienced it before. The enemies could easily suppress us because we were too weak. We couldn't even lift our heads in front of them."
"Why? Because the enemies have a better environment and better profound art? Well, it might be true half of it, but the main problem was that we lacked good competition here."
"In the past, it was all about the Nine Palaces. Their existences were like a vast mountain, pressing everyone to the ground. And what happened in the end? They couldn't even fight the enemies, despite hogging so many resources to themselves."
He swept his gaze over everyone at the scene and continued. "All of you here could be considered the upper half of the world's forces. You could argue with me that it should be like this because the strong would prey on the weak at the end of the day."
"Of course, I agreed with everyone on this point. If I'm not strong enough, I won't be here talking about all of this."
"However, I want to change that." He looked straight into the white screen, making it look like he was staring into everyone's eyes. "I want to bring the world to a whole new level by giving the people in the bottom-half side an opportunity. The opportunity to compete with the upper-half side."
"Once everyone in the world could compete with each other freely without having a mountain sitting on top of their heads like before, they would become much stronger. The strong would be even stronger, and the weak would have a chance to grow."
As his voice fell, people around the world went into uproar. They carefully thought along Yun Lintian's words and fully understood what he wanted to do. If he could do what he said, the overall strength of the world would undoubtedly increase dramatically in the near future.
And when they thought further, they finally understood why Yun Lintian wanted to monopolize a crucial resource like the alchemy business. This was obviously the "opportunity" he was talking about.
Once everyone could access a good pill, the previous gap between the top and the bottom would be gone completely. The rest would be decided by a profound art, innate talent, and hardworking.
Yun Lintian smiled and said further. "I cannot help everyone with your innate talent, but I can solve the profound art problem."
Everyone quickly stopped discussing and looked at the screen attentively, waiting for Yun Lintian's following sentence.
"I believe many of you have heard about the Sky Throne Profound Academy before. I've decided to replace them with my newly established academy, Profound Sky Divine Academy." Yun Lintian said calmly.
"Although both are an academy, they are entirely different. Once you become a student of the Profound Sky Divine Academy, you can enjoy various benefits, such as having a Divine Monarch or even a Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm expert as your teacher. You can also choose any Heaven-rank profound arts from the library at will."
"Woah—"
Everyone gasped in shock upon hearing this. A Heaven-rank profound art? One had to know that even a middle-level sect might not have one of such, but Yun Lintian actually gave it away for free?
However, Yun Lintian's next sentence blew their minds away instantly.
"Of course, the Heaven-rank profound arts are just entry-level. There are many Divine-rank arts for you to choose from as well. However, you have to accumulate merits by doing the academy's tasks to exchange for it."
His words stunned everyone, including many top sects at the scene. They suddenly felt they should disband the sect and join the Profound Sky Divine Academy instead.
"What about the qualification, Sect Master Yun?" One among the crowd asked.
"The academy will be opened for everyone. However, in order to make it fair, the academy will hold a simple examination every year. It's an examination related to fundamental knowledge of every aspect, whether it is agriculture, alchemy, formation, forging, or business management. As long as you pass one of them, you can enter the academy." Yun Lintian answered.
Hiss—
Everyone gasped in shock once again. This was no different from having no examination.
Yun Lintian said further. "However, the number will be limited each year. After all, no matter how big the academy is, accepting everyone in one go is impossible. And for those who failed, you can come again next year and further years until you can pass."
"The academy will open on every continent. The locations of them will be announced again later. You don't have to worry about the quality. All the five academies will hold the same standard. You can choose to join the nearest one."
Everyone couldn't calm down anymore upon hearing this. The establishment of the academy was like a light of hope for them. Especially people at the grassroots level. From now on, they would have a chance to stand up!
