The series of announcements from Yun Lintian were like huge stones falling into the lake. It caused a powerful wave to spread to every corner of the world.
Establishing the academy alone was enough to make everyone see hope in their poor life. If they failed to climb up in the future, they could only blame themselves. After all, the opportunity was given to everyone. It depended on their effort and determination now.
"Some of you might be curious right now why agriculture and business management topics are included in the examination. Not only these two, but there will be culinary, or even painting as well." Yun Lintian said.
"It's because the profound path is not the only path we can walk on. After all, everyone is born different. We all have different appearances, backgrounds, as well as talents. Hence, I want everyone to follow your dream. You can be a farmer, chef, manager, or painter. You can be anything you want."
The world fell silent immediately as Yun Lintian's voice dropped. Everyone stared blankly at Yun Lintian. They couldn't believe there would be someone who cared so much about them.
In various mountain villages around the world, everyone was now hugging each other and crying out of joy. Most of them were born with no profound talent and were destined to be ordinary people for the rest of their lives.
At first, they were moved by Yun Lintian's idea but were soon defeated by their fate. However, when they heard his latter sentences, they went from depressed to happy instantly.
"Thank you, Sect Master Yun!" All of a sudden, many people around the world shouted in unison. Although their voices couldn't reach Yun Lintian's ears, Yun Lintian could feel their gratitude.
"In order to raise competition further, I shall announce the establishment of the Azure Cloud Convention." Yun Lintian said further.
"As you probably have guessed about it already. The Azure Cloud Convention is nothing but a high-level tournament for the younger generation. It doesn't matter what kind of background or strength you have. As long as your age is below fifty, you will be eligible to join this convention."
"The convention will be held every five years. The winner will receive huge rewards, which will be announced later."
He looked at everyone and said. "The first convention will start three months later. So, anyone who wants to join should start preparing now."
Yun Lintian didn't linger on this topic further and went to the next. "The third topic is about the infrastructure around the world. I planned to first upgrade basic infrastructure, such as a road and transportation. In the next period, my people will build the roads to every corner of the continent, including establishing a transportation hub such as a ferry and a train station."
"Of course, my people alone are not enough. I will hire more people later. Anyone interested in working with me can go to the Morning Rain Pavilion and the newly established Fleeting Cloud Pavilion to apply for the job. Someone will tell you about the salary and welfare."
Everyone was shocked by Yun Lintian's move once again. Building a road all over the continent would consume a hefty of resources. Even if you emptied the previous Star Gazing Palace treasury, it might not be able to complete it… How could Yun Lintian do it?
Yun Lintian naturally didn't explain this. It might be an astronomical figure for others, but it was nothing for him.
Yun Lintian took a sip of tea that Yun Qianxue handed over and said further. "Now, I am going to talk about the main topic today."
Everyone quieted down immediately and looked at the screens attentively.
"I believe all of you are aware of the existence of the other worlds, as well as the Divine Realm. The previous invaders were also coming from the other worlds." Yun Lintian said.
"I won't go on about our world's history, as it will be too long. I will make it simple. In the past, there were many top practitioners who left this world for the Divine Realm. However, for some reason, the world's boundary was completely sealed, preventing everyone from leaving."
Yun Lintian swept his gaze over everyone and said calmly. "Now, the world's boundary is under my control, which means I can leave the world at will."
Lei Yongzheng and the others looked at Yun Lintian with incredible expressions. For them who reached the world's ceiling for a long time, they naturally wanted to visit the Divine Realm. It was just that they chose to stay in the end back then.
When they wanted to leave again, they suddenly discovered they couldn't leave anymore. Hence, they simply gave up and prepared to live here for the rest of their lives.
Yun Lintian said further. "However, I have no plan of opening it for everyone at the moment. It's because I don't think it's the right timing. First of all, we have just ended the historical war and are in a state of recovery. Once all the top powerhouse left, the world would fall into chaos again."
Lei Yongzheng and the others immediately calmed down upon hearing this. Of course, they felt nothing wrong with Yun Lintian's statement.
Yun Lintian raised his hand up and said. "Fifty years. The gate will be open for everyone fifty years later. Anyone who wants to leave can go to my Misty Cloud Sect, and my people will open the gate for you."
Lei Yongzheng and the others nodded in agreement. For them, fifty years was nothing but a blink of an eye. They could afford to wait.
"Why it sounds like you are leaving, Sect Master Yun?" Bi Xian asked as she felt something was wrong with Yun Lintian's words.
Everyone at the scene quickly looked at Yun Lintian, waiting for his answer.
Yun Lintian nodded with a smile. "I'll leave after the convention ends."
Everyone in the world was startled. They didn't expect Yun Lintian to leave this fast.
Yun Lintian explained further. "I planned to go there first to take a look, and I would return within fifty years. Perhaps I could give everyone crucial information at that time so that all of you could have a higher chance of surviving."
"Of course. If I didn't come back in time, the gate would still be open for everyone. You don't have to worry about it."
The world went quiet immediately as his voice fell…
