Chapter 1142: Secured the Position of Chief, I’ll Mess up Whoever That Messes This Up
The news about Chu Kuangren defeating the Heavenly Champions who teamed up against him at Cirrus Academy spread like wildfire. Almost everyone in the academy knew about it.
For a moment there, Chu Kuangren’s name shook the entire academy.
Endless discussions sparked across the nineteen branches.
“I heard there were thirteen Heavenly Champions who joined the Elegant Gathering at Cirrus Academy. Scholar Yao didn’t even last one slash from Chu Kuangren before he died, and the other twelve Heavenly Champions were injured as well.”
“I saw that battle. Chu Kuangren was ridiculously powerful.”
Of course, such a ridiculous display of power attracted doubts as well.
“I think it’s fake. No matter how strong Chu Kuangren is, the Heavenly Champions can surely stand up for themselves. How could they be defeated that easily?”
“Thirteen of them can’t defeat a single person? What a joke! Does it even sound logical to you? Only idiots believe in the rumors.”
While the discussion remained heated, a verbal order came from the Famed Master Pavilion.
“Starting from today, Chu Kuangren is the Academic Chief.”
...
The order came directly from Mister Lu, so it was not to be doubted, and that order shut down those who doubted Chu Kuangren.
Everyone was shocked.
After all, it was the Academic Chief they were talking about.
Ever since the academy merged, a lot of people had been wondering who would get the position.
Before this, the candidate with the highest chance was Cao Yun from White Deer Academy. However, no one expected a Chu Kuangren would come out of nowhere.
...
“Academic Chief is one rank higher than the Heavenly Champions.”
“Chu Kuangren really did it this time.”
“Interesting...”
“Chu Kuangren, who’s labeled the weakest Heavenly Champions, has become the Academic Chief, huh? Who would’ve thought?”
Similarly, some doubted Chu Kuangren for the position as the Academic Chief, especially those at Peach Blossom Academy.
Their Heavenly Champion, Scholar Yao, had died at the hands of Chu Kuangren, so it was almost certain that they would disagree on the decision.
“Chu Kuangren is a bloodthirsty, Immortal murderer. What right does he have to become the Academic Chief?”
“Yeah, Peace Blossom Academy doesn’t agree to this!”
However, the voices of doubt only lasted for a while.
Soon enough, the students who joined the Elegant Gathering at Cirrus Academy stepped forward and supported the decision of Chu Kuangren becoming the Academic Chief.
The Heavenly Champion of Battlegale Academy, Wang Chentian, even made a public announcement about it.
“Whosoever has anything to say about Academic Chief Chu will be going against me! If you don’t like the decision, come fight me!”
Other than Wang Chentian, Li Wangchen, Zhao Fangfei, and the others also respected Chu Kuangren and the decision.
Be it Chu Kuangren’s strength or the amazing lecture that he gave at the gathering, which convinced all the Heavenly Champions and students present, he deserved to be made Academic Chief.
The others might have a different opinion about Chu Kuangren getting the position, but not them because they knew Chu Kuangren was more than capable.
If he were not selected as the Academic Chief, no one else in the academy would be worthy.
With the support of the students and other Heavenly Champions, Chu Kuangren did not even have to do anything to secure his position as Academic Chief.
The rest who disagreed had nothing else to say after that.
Back at Planquilon Academy, the students were filled with delight for the past few days. They were proud and over the moon. Their happiness could not be described with mere words.
Planquilon Academy was named the weakest among the nineteen branches, but as the Planquilon Heavenly Champion, Chu Kuangren was now the Academic Chief.
It made the entire Planquilon Academy proud!
No one would dare to look down on them anymore.
Of course, they knew that Chu Kuangren earned the position with his own capabilities. Hence, the rest of them dared not slack off as well because they could not rely on Chu Kuangren alone to shoulder the reputation of the entire academy.
“Master Chu, are you giving a lecture?”
Back at Chu Kuangren’s place, the Eldest Master looked at Chu Kuangren in surprise.
“Yes, and I’m giving lectures to all the hundred branches.
“I might already be the Academic Chief, but in order to secure my position, I still have to increase my reputation,” he said.
Nothing else would earn a reputation faster than giving lectures in the academy, and to Chu Kuangren, giving lectures was his strong suit.
“I understand.” The Eldest Master nodded.
Soon, the news of Chu Kuangren giving lectures spread across the entire Hundred Academy.
On the day of the lecture, a large number of students attended, and they were all there for Chu Kuangren.
Of course, among them were some troublemakers.
“Hmph. When Chu Kuangren gives the lecture later, we’ll pick on his mistakes and embarrass him as the Academic Chief,”said a white-robed student.
He was a student from Peach Blossom Academy.
Beside him were several more cultivators who had the same intention.
“That’s right. I have no idea what tricks Chu Kuangren used to convince the other Heavenly Champions. I refuse to believe he can convince us with just a lecture.”
“If he made a mistake, we’ll make things worse for him and make him lose the position of Academic Chief.”
Those cultivators were confident about it.
There was a large crowd at Planquilon Academy, with countless students on the edge of their seats, looking forward to the lecture.
It was then a figure in white descended from the sky. With his clean and loose white robes, the ancient sword and the scroll at his waist, the fluttering sleeves, and the waist-length black hair, every aspect of him resembled a True Immortal who had descended on earth. Every single move he made felt transcendental.
“So this is Chu Kuangren?”
The troublemakers’ confidence began to waver when they saw Chu Kuangren in person, and their eyes began to lose their focus.
After that, they regained their composure and wore a cautious look on their faces.
“Hmph. The lecture hasn’t even started, and Chu Kuangren has already shaken us up. We must be careful.”
“If I were a girl, I probably wouldn’t cause trouble here.”
“Too bad. No matter how handsome he is, he won’t enchant me!”
Chu Kuangren had no idea what the troublemakers were thinking.
After he landed, he started giving a lecture.
Enlightening words and every possible auspicious phenomenon all happened at once.
The troublemakers were stunned by the scene. They stared at Chu Kuangren like they were looking at a monster.
They thought they could pick some flaws in Chu Kuangren’s lecture to embarrass him. However, they could not even handle those enlightening words, let alone pick on the non-existent flaw.
They were ahead of themselves! They could not even react to it!
As the lecture went on, Chu Kuangren began to feel thirsty.
The troublemakers were so deeply captivated by his lecture that they did not utter a single word during the lecture because they could not pick on any flaws or refute what Chu Kuangren said.
“Who are we?”
“Where are we?”
“What are we?”
...
“That’s it for today,” Chu Kuangren said with a smile.
He got up and left.
With that, the students also got up and bowed to him.
“Take care, Master...”
All the Heavenly Champions of respective academies started to gain respect for Chu Kuangren.
“Boss, are we still picking on his mistakes?” asked one of the students.
The young man in white took a deep breath and answered, “Mistakes? Whoever that goes against Academic Chief Chu will be my enemy!”
His followers exchanged glances with each other.
The change of attitude was so fast that it caught them by surprise.
Chu Kuangren’s lecture on Dao was so profound and informative that it even gave the young man in white a sense of hope to break through his current cultivation level.
If he could just listen to a few more lectures, he was certain he could achieve the breakthrough.
Therefore, he ought to mess up those who mess up his plans to attend all the lectures.
