"This disciple does not know... Please enlighten me, Dean..."

Although he already had some guesses in his mind, Jiang Che had no intention of saying them.

"Young man, your talent is remarkable, which has caught my attention and piqued my curiosity..."

"The academy never mistreats geniuses..."

"From now on, you will be a true disciple of my academy. Here, take this..."

As she spoke, Haiyue waved her hand and handed a token symbolizing her identity to Jiang Che. The token was engraved with the words "True Disciple" and Jiang Che's name.

Clearly, this was something Haiyue had prepared in advance.

Jiang Che reached out and took it, feeling a little strange inside.

Previously, he had no idea that the academy had true disciples.

This plaque, representing his status as a true disciple, is far superior to his previous one; the materials have been upgraded several levels.

As if sensing Jiang Che's inner doubts, Hai Yue's lips curled up slightly, her pretty face revealing a stunning smile, and she spoke in a cool voice.

"The reason why no true disciples have appeared before is because those people are not worth my utmost effort to cultivate..."

"Now that you've come into the picture, things are completely different."

"The status of a true disciple is second only to mine and Elder Zhaojun..."

"With this token, you may command any disciple or elder of the academy..."

"From now on, you won't need to do tasks to earn points anymore. The doors of the Scripture Pavilion will always be open for you, and you can go there to read the cultivation techniques at any time..."

"You can also choose from the cultivation resources and divine weapons in the treasure vault, but you can't ask for too many Earth-rank divine weapons..."

"Of course, such generous treatment comes with conditions..."

"From now on, you must not harbor any disloyal thoughts, you must not betray Her Majesty the Empress, and you must be forever loyal to the Celestial Dynasty..."

"If anyone does anything to betray the Empress, she will personally deal with the entire sect..."

Believe me, you don't want that day to come.

"If you agree, I will gather everyone shortly to announce your identity..."

"So, are you going to say yes or no?"

After speaking, Haiyue raised an eyebrow and looked at the white-robed youth in front of her with great interest, observing the subtle changes in Jiang Che's facial expression.

Since Wu Zetian wanted to nurture Jiang Che with all her might, Haiyue naturally complied. She understood the Empress's thoughts; what she wanted was Jiang Che's absolute loyalty.

After all, anyone would feel a sense of admiration for such a genius and want to keep him by their side.

Moreover, Haiyue was equally curious, wondering just how far this little guy could go with the academy's strong support.

……………………………Man.

065: Princess Wang Zhaojun, clinging tightly to the Empress's thigh!

"certainly………"

After a moment's thought, without giving it much thought, Jiang Che nodded in agreement.

The conditions Haiyue offered were quite favorable to Jiang Che.

The temptation was too great; Jiang Che simply couldn't resist!

If he could get the academy's strong support, it would definitely be a good thing for him, and would greatly increase the speed at which he improved his cultivation.

Only now did Jiang Che finally breathe a long sigh of relief…

Fortunately, just as he had guessed, Haiyue was only slightly interested in him.

As for Haiyue's claim of betraying the Empress?

Jiang Che isn't stupid; of course he wouldn't do something so absurd.

Wu Zetian was one of the people at the very top of the King's Continent. I must have been out of my mind to even think of betraying her...

We absolutely have to stick close to such a powerful figure!

With the support of the Empress and Haiyue, it's no exaggeration to say that he can now roam freely throughout Chang'an!

"Congratulations on making the right choice..."

"Come with me……"

"I'll go announce your identity..."

Seeing that Jiang Che agreed almost without hesitation, Haiyue nodded in satisfaction.

She never imagined that Jiang Che would refuse her suggestion.

With such generous benefits, only a fool would refuse!

As she spoke, Haiyue slowly rose from her seat, took graceful steps, and led Jiang Che away from the main hall.

With a wave of her hand, spiritual energy directly enveloped Jiang Che's body.

The next instant, the two figures appeared directly in the martial arts arena square of the academy.

It was noon, and the sun was shining brightly in the sky. Many academy disciples were practicing duels in the training ground.

Upon seeing Haiyue and Jiang Che appear, all the disciples instinctively turned their gazes towards the two of them.

"Greetings, Dean..."

"Greetings, Dean Haiyue..."

Although Haiyue rarely showed her face in the academy, some of the earlier disciples had seen her a few times.

Therefore, upon seeing Haiyue appear, he immediately greeted her respectfully.

"Um…"

Haiyue glanced around at everyone present, nodded indifferently, and said nothing more.

She had already notified the other elders of the academy, and they should all be here soon.

Even though Haiyue didn't exert any pressure, the disciples felt a chill run down their spines under her gaze. They felt as if they were being pricked by needles and had fallen into an ice cellar. They all subconsciously lowered their heads, not daring to meet her eyes.

After a short wait, everyone, including Wang Zhaojun and Elder Lin, appeared at the training ground.

These people are all highly skilled, with powerful cultivators like Wang Zhaojun having reached the Nascent Soul stage, and even the weakest among them are Golden Core experts.

According to the rules, as long as a disciple can break through to the Golden Core stage within a hundred years of joining the academy, he/she can become an elder of the academy.

This condition is not particularly stringent. As long as one cultivates diligently, a cultivator with exceptional talent can still break through to the Golden Core stage within a hundred years.

Although the Golden Core stage is a threshold that many cultivators are destined to never cross in their lifetime, it is ultimately only the fourth realm of cultivation.

However, because the academy was founded only three years ago, no disciple has yet been able to break through to the Golden Core stage and become an elder.

The relatively lenient entry requirements ensured that the academy would have a large number of students.

After waiting for half an hour, the training ground had already gathered over a thousand disciples, young and old, men and women.

This number is only because other disciples are on missions outside and unable to return; otherwise, the number would be even higher.

"Emergency summons..."

"Could something major have happened?"

Wang Zhaojun walked up from the side, glanced at Haiyue with her eyes slightly raised, her brows furrowed, and asked hesitantly.

Like Haiyue, Wang Zhaojun also had a head of sky-blue hair and wore a wide blue and white dress that perfectly concealed her graceful figure, making it impossible for anyone to tell anything about her.

She had exquisite features, three-dimensional facial features, red lips and white teeth, long and narrow eyelashes, and light blue eyes that were as cold as ice water in winter, pure and beautiful, and incomparably cold and beautiful.

She exudes an aura that keeps strangers at bay, and is also an icy beauty who rarely smiles.

Wang Zhaojun's coldness differed from Haiyue's. Haiyue was aloof and arrogant, while Wang Zhaojun exuded a chilling aura from the inside out, like the embodiment of an ice and snow fairy.

Upon hearing Wang Zhaojun's question, the elders nearby instinctively turned their gazes to Haiyue, quietly awaiting her answer.

"No, it's not..."

"There's just something I need to announce..."

Haiyue gently shook her head, then faced all the disciples in the training ground and spoke in a clear, cold voice.

"The man beside me will be a true disciple of the academy from now on, your senior brother..."

"His status is second only to mine and Elder Zhaojun..."

"If you see them again in the future, you must not be negligent..."

Haiyue's voice wasn't loud, but it had a penetrating effect, directly reaching the hearts of every disciple present.

brush!

As Haiyue's voice fell, all the disciples and elders present looked at Haiyue and the elegant Jiang Che standing beside her with some surprise.

Clearly, none of them expected the dean to make such a decision so suddenly. Everyone looked at each other, somewhat bewildered.

It should be noted that there had never been a precedent for this in the academy before.

Some exceptionally talented disciples do receive preferential treatment from the academy and become core disciples, but there has never been a precedent of any true disciple being made.

Not to mention, this true disciple's status is only below the Dean and Elder Zhaojun, and even higher than some other elders, so how could they not be shocked?

However, due to Haiyue's intimidation, no one dared to speak or discuss anything, but only glanced at Jiang Che standing next to Haiyue.

In that instant, all eyes in the room turned to Jiang Che, and he felt all sorts of gazes upon him...

Shock, envy, disdain, inexplicable, jealousy, suspicion...

Elder Lin was the first to react.

Elder Lin first looked at Jiang Che with a shocked expression, then bowed respectfully.

"I will obey the Dean's decree..."

"I will obey the Dean's decree..."

The other elders echoed this sentiment, their voices loud and clear.

Ultimately, the academy is still Haiyue's domain; the other elders have no right to interfere with what she wants to do.
