In an era where everyone is cultivating immortality, the system wants me to become a demon?

Chapter 244 What?! University courses are about conquering the world?! (3K views, please subscribe!)

"Tsk! They can't even handle such a small matter, and they even got caught. I'm so disappointed in them!"

"What did you say?"

"No, please feel free to give me your instructions, teacher."

In the same pavilion in the Zhuxie University City, Taibai Baiji sat imposingly on a stone bench, squinting at the smiling disciple in front of him.

After a long while, he sighed and said:
"You've really put me in a difficult position."

Su Yuan immediately understood his teacher's meaning and promptly assured him:
"Teacher, please rest assured, I guarantee that Ji Ming and the other two will keep their mouths shut and will not divulge a single unnecessary word."

Tai Baiji: "..."

That's not what he meant. What's the difference between this and burying your head in the sand?
However, since things have come to this point, we should indeed try our best to minimize the impact and resolve the issue peacefully.

What else can we do? We can't just split up the three villages again.

Ji Ming and the other two have already been corrupted by Su Yuan. If they are forced to leave the Yuan Cult, they might actually be unwilling.

After a long silence, Taibai Baiji had no choice but to say:
"Next time you do something like this, tell me in advance."

Su Yuan nodded earnestly, as if he had truly taken it to heart.

Then Taibai Baiji changed the subject and said seriously:

"Since the designer of this psionic engine is one of our own, I'll get straight to the point."

"The engine is excellent. I will still push for its approval as soon as possible and get the Demon-Slaying Sword Sect to invest in it."

"However, I have a small condition: once this psionic engine is in mass production, I hope that more than 30% of the production capacity can be supplied to the Demon-Slaying Sword Sect."

"I want to test the effectiveness of this in actual combat."

Su Yuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately agreed.

Why not take an order that's given away for free?

But then, Su Yuan suddenly realized something and asked in surprise:

"Teacher, once the production line is up and running, the production capacity of the psionic engines will increase rapidly. The Demon Extermination University alone will need 30% of its production capacity. Will the students have that many opportunities for practical combat?"

Tai Baiji: "How could I not know how high the maximum production capacity of the Juque Sect's factory is? My willingness to take 30% of the production capacity is naturally based on my own considerations."

He paused, then smiled and shook his head at Su Yuan:

"This is also one of the reasons why I do not recommend that you apply to the Demon-Slaying Sword Sect."

"Because the Demon-Slaying Sword Sect is the divine sword of the Blue Star Federation, not only internally but also externally."

Do you know what the final exams are like at this university every academic year?

Su Yuan shook his head blankly.

Tai Baiji raised one finger:
"In the first year, participate in the conquest of a small world occupied by demonic forces."

He extended his second finger:

"In the second year, participate in the conquest of a medieval world occupied by demonic forces."

Under Su Yuan's shocked gaze, Tai Bai Tianji slowly extended his third finger:
"In the third year, participate in the conquest of a vast world occupied by demonic forces."

Tai Baiji sighed:

"The content of the year-end exam of the Demon-Slaying Sword Sect is a top-level secret of the Federation."

“If you hadn’t made up your mind to join the Demon-Slaying Sword Sect and become my disciple, you wouldn’t be qualified to know these things.”

"Think about it carefully. Just the end-of-year assessments for these three academic years alone, how much negative emotion and battle will the students have to face? How many psionic engines will be enough?"

Su Yuan: "..."

Actually, my determination wasn't that strong.

What the hell!
Why do you have to conquer the world to get into university?
Even just participating in conquering the world is absurd, okay?

No wonder the atmosphere in the Demon Extermination Zone is so fierce; it's probably something they developed on the battlefield.

Is it too late to resubmit my college application now?
Su Yuan was about to ask a question, but when he saw Tai Baiji's ambiguous smile, his heart sank.

Who said that Lao Deng Taibai lightly dismissed the matter of the three sects? It turns out that this was what was waiting for him!

This was a deliberate trap set for him, which then conveniently led to the revelation of this federally classified secret, making it impossible for him to transfer schools!

That's so sinister!

Seeing that Su Yuan understood his meaning, Tai Baiji smiled and said:
“Su Yuan, Su Yuan, the reason I suggested you apply to schools like Wanbaolou and Xuanyi Tianzong, which serve the rear, instead of Zhuxie Jianzong, was because I was really worried that something might go wrong if you went to the battlefield.”

"But you're always tinkering with these war-related items, and I suddenly feel that leaving you on Earth is not a good idea."

"You should be on the battlefield, fighting against those evil forces that have taken over the world."

"Let the devil fight the devil, let the cult fight each other, that's the best arrangement."

Su Yuan was sweating profusely as he listened.

Because this is completely contrary to his expected development path.

He only wanted to expand and strengthen the Yuan Sect, to escape the three loans and the five dangers, and to become a wealthy man who lived a long and prosperous life.

Why were they suddenly sent to fight in the war?
How do you make money if you fight?

But what's done is done, and it seems he can't get off Taibai Laodeng's pirate ship now.

However, upon calming down and thinking about it carefully, hadn't their teacher previously revealed his ambition to become the realm master?

Conquering the world is only a matter of time. If the timing is right, could I hitch a ride on my teacher's coattails and finish the year-end exams at the Evil Extermination University?

Could it even be possible to seize land from the wealthy and distribute it to the rich?
It's better to compete with a group of alien natives than to compete within the fiercely competitive Blue Star Federation.

With this thought in mind, Su Yuan wasn't so resistant anymore. He pondered for a moment and asked:
"Teacher, besides our Demon-Slaying Sword Sect, are there any other immortal sects among the Ten Great Immortal Sects that take a policy of external expansion?"

Tai Baiji didn't hide anything and patiently explained:

"The four sects of the Demon-Slaying Sword Sect, the True Martial Saint Sect, the Star River Dao Sect, and the Myriad Beast Demon Sect are all expansionist factions."

"Often, these four immortal sects were in a state of cooperation during the process of conquering the world."

"The Demon-Slaying Sword Sect is responsible for the advance and decapitation, the True Martial Saint Sect and the Myriad Beasts Demon Sect are responsible for the frontal assault and meat shields, and the Star River Dao Sect is the Daoist artillery platform."

Su Yuan suddenly realized.

Assassins, warriors, summoners, and mages, right? That's certainly a fairly well-rounded combat lineup.

"What about the Jiuli Generals? Aren't they supposed to be training military officers? Aren't they considered part of the expansionist faction?"

Tai Baiji said:

"The federal army was not created for aggression, but for defense against invasion by external forces."

"The Federation's military will only be deployed on a large scale when facing worlds that are extremely hostile to the Blue Star Federation and have the ability to threaten our homeland."

"By then, it won't be a trivial matter of conquering one or two small worlds or the middle world."

"At the height of the war, we expansionists will also be conscripted to fight alongside them."

"Of course, from a macro perspective, all ten immortal sects can be considered as those that advocate external expansion."

"After all, if we want to develop the economy, build the world, and spread culture in the new world, we cannot do without immortal sects such as Wanbaolou, Xuanyi Tianzong, and Qianmian Xianzong."

Su Yuan nodded, his doubts dispelled.

The expansionist faction may seem fierce, devouring small, medium, and large worlds in a single meal, but in reality, compared to the Blue Star Federation's homeland, these worlds are merely bandit dens or strongholds of demonic cults.

Therefore, civilian forces can handle them without the need for federal troops.

The Federation army can only truly exert its power in the face of major events such as invasions by enemy nations.

After Su Yuan had processed this information, Tai Baiji asked again:

"Su Yuan, does conquering one world after another make you feel that our Blue Star Federation is an evil civilization?"

Su Yuan paused slightly, then shook his head and said:
"No, weren't our target worlds supposed to be worlds occupied by the Demonic Cult?"

Tai Baiji nodded slightly, feeling a sense of relief.

The Blue Star Federation has enjoyed a long period of peace, and many young people's first reaction to the idea of ​​conquest and war is opposition.

Fortunately, Su Yuan is not that kind of person.

It would be absurd for Su Yuan, the leader of the Demonic Sect, to oppose fighting the Demonic Sect!

But Taibai Baiji still solemnly explained:

"I have personally witnessed the world outside the Blue Star Federation. It is no exaggeration to say that more than 90% of the worlds have been occupied by the Demonic Cult, causing widespread suffering and death."

"These demonic cults are not demonic cults that the Blue Star Federation arbitrarily defined in order to flaunt justice, but rather evil cults that are no less than those in the ancient cultivation world."

"In these worlds ruled by demonic cults, there are countless demons who use people to refine pills and weapons, turn living people into puppets, extract human souls to refine the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, suppress and annex righteous sects, and launch blood sacrifice arrays to destroy a city or a country, all to satisfy their own selfish desires."

Su Yuan: "..."

The military dispatches consist of twelve volumes, each bearing my grandfather's name.
Fortunately, Taibai Baiji did not realize that his disciple was the heinous demon he had described, and continued:

"Destroying such a cult and saving the local people from suffering is actually a good thing that benefits the world."

"Although the conquerors of the Blue Star Federation will become the world's rulers, it does not mean that they can do whatever they want."

"On the contrary, the Federation will send out a large number of monitoring and management agencies to jointly manage this world with the Lord of the Realm."

Su Yuan nodded repeatedly, then quickly changed the subject:

"Teacher, are our cultures compatible with those of the outside world?"

"Does that mean the entire universe speaks the Federation's language? And that everyone in the universe is human, with no aliens?"

Tai Baiji explained:
"It's impossible for the entire universe to speak the Federation's language, but it's very possible for the entire universe to speak the Spirit Script."

"what?"

"According to some experts' investigations into the ancient secret realms, the ancient cultivation world's territory was not limited to Blue Star, but spanned the entire starry sea."

"The worlds we have conquered and those we have not conquered are actually part of the ancient world of cultivation."

"And Blue Star may be the main part of the ancient cultivation world. As the inheritors of the ancient immortal sect, it is legal for us to regain control of the star sea."

Just then, the voice of Zhu Qingqing, an ancient great cultivator, drifted into Su Yuan's ears:

"What the Taibai Sword Demon said is basically correct."

"However, back then, we didn't have the concept of ruling the starry sea, because the cultivation world ten thousand years ago was an enormous whole."

"The reason it turned into a bunch of stars and worlds of all sizes is most likely because after the end of the Dharma era, the cultivation world lost the support of immortal power and collapsed into small worlds."

Su Yuan: "..."

Good heavens, they've all gotten perfectly rounded!

However, these things are all too far away for Su Yuan.

Just listen to that. Even if he goes to university, he'll at most experience some foreign wars, he won't actually become a major force in conquering the world.

We should focus on making money and developing the Yuan religion.

Teacher Taibai did not disappoint Su Yuan. In less than three days, news of approval and investment followed one after another.

The Yuan Sect officially became an affiliated sect of the Exorcising Sword Sect.
