178: Chapter 178 Conditions of All Parties

Tang Long was very excited, "Thank you to the country, thank you to the imperial court, and thank you to the Grand Secretary and the two adults for your cultivation!"

Wei Ye turned to Yun Zhuoyue with a smile, "Group Leader Yun, would you like to say a few words?"

Yun Zhuoyue was very polite, "It would be better for Bishop Wei to go first."

"Very well, then I will take the liberty of going first."

Wei Ye smiled and came to Tang Long, "The terms The Sect can offer are to specially recruit you into the Songcheng Divine Academy and immediately confer upon you the title of Honorary Dean and Special Consultant."

"Tang Long, after you graduate from the Divine Academy, the position of High Priest of the Divine Academy will undoubtedly be yours."

"Let me clarify, all four bishops of this city, including myself, have sat in this position; it can be said to be the necessary path to becoming a bishop."

"In the future, it is very likely that you, like us, will become someone closest to the gods."

"Child, titles and fame are important, but compared to faith, what are they?"

"Weigh it carefully, I believe you will not let me return empty-handed."

"Oh, by the way, as long as you are willing, The Sect can cover all your cultivation resources from now on."

In fact, halfway through Wei Ye's words, the expressions of Ritual Master Yu Hai and Shi Chengyu changed.

After he finished speaking, without waiting for Tang Long to respond, Ritual Master Yu Hai sneered and retorted.

"Brother Wei, I'm afraid these conditions of yours are not so easy to fulfill, right?"

"Honorary Dean and whatever consultant are fine, but the High Priest of the Songcheng Divine Academy must be approved by the High Priest."

"By the time he graduates from the Divine Academy in four years, he will only be twenty-five or twenty-six. How could the High Priest agree to let such a young man take such an important position?"

"And resources, I don't believe your Sect is willing to supply them infinitely. Tang Long, as long as you come with us, the National Academy can supply half!"

Wei Ye was still smiling, "Does Brother Yu think I am someone who speaks nonsense?"

"Since I dare to promise such conditions, there are no obstacles."

"To tell you the truth, the High Priest has actually been paying attention to Tang Long for a long time, and his relationship with The Sect is closer than you imagine."

"Whether what I said can be fulfilled, I believe Tang Long will be able to judge for himself."

Upon hearing this, Ritual Master Yu Hai knew it was over, and secretly cursed Ye Qingzhou for being absurd.

According to what Wei Ye said, Tang Long had long had a close relationship with the Songcheng Sect, so the Imperial Academy basically had no chance of competing.

Yet, Ye Qingzhou was completely unaware of such an important situation.

If he returned empty-handed this time, the Grand Secretary would definitely be very unhappy.

He could only try his best to fight for it, "Tang Long, the vision of The Sect is beautiful, but life in The Sect is very dull."

"Faith, everyone has it, but it doesn't need to be on everyone's lips every day!"

"The Pope is in Huaidu; he is the orthodox descendant of the gods and the one closest to the gods!"

Wei Ye shook his head, "Brother Yu, you are losing your composure. Now we are stating our own conditions; what is the point of talking about the Pope? Group Leader Yun hasn't spoken yet; you must let others have their say, right?"

Ritual Master Yu Hai let out a heavy hum, "That's right. Group Leader Yun, please go first; we can discuss this properly later."

Yun Zhuoyue sighed long and hard.

Compared to these two sides, the Songcheng military was a bit poor and could not offer comparable benefits.

"Tang Long, the Songcheng Command Headquarters cannot give you such generous terms."

"What I can promise is that if you enter the Military Academy, you can get a formal position as a special instructor and be promoted directly to the rank of second lieutenant."

"However, the military is different from other places."

"Those who come out of the Imperial Academy are all high-ranking officials. Like Dr. Shi, if he were in a real position, he would be on par with Governor Xu and Commander-in-Chief Qi. But there are only five main cities in Dongyu, and there aren't that many positions. So they can only huddle in Huaidu, squeezing each other out."

"As for The Sect, if the so-called faith is just bowing to the Red God, this country would have ceased to exist long ago. And if Song City did not have an army, this city would not exist either; what use would the so-called faith be?"

"Dongyu has been able to survive to this day because of the military spirit established by the Six Marshals back then, and because of the hot blood and lives shed by countless soldiers. It does not rely on certain bureaucrats or a handful of believers of some god."

"The military is the fairest place; as long as you make enough military contributions, you can be promoted."

"By joining the army, you can use your own passion, step by step, to walk toward your ideals and glory."

"And there is one most important point."

Yun Zhuoyue spoke very impolitely, basically pointing at their noses and scolding them; Ritual Master Yu Hai and Wei Ye both looked very ugly.

However, there was something even more headache-inducing to come.

Speaking of this, Yun Zhuoyue suddenly reached out and pulled out the long blade behind her, and the temperature in the room dropped by dozens of degrees instantly.

"I received a military order today, and the content is to bring Tang Long back."

"Anyone who dares to block me will be killed without exception."

"You three, either you kill me, or I take him away."

"You choose."

Ritual Master Yu Hai, Shi Chengyu, and Wei Ye were all stunned.

Damn, what is wrong with this crazy woman? Did she really practice until she became mentally ill? How did chatting turn into a life-and-death struggle?

Although the Seven Kills Art is famous, and you, Yun Zhuoyue, have the record of killing a Spirit Map, who do we think we are? Would we be afraid of this?

However, Yun Zhuoyue is not only the face of Hu Xiao, she is also the personal disciple of Ye Baiqiao.

Killing her would not only offend the Songcheng military, but I'm afraid all of Ye Baiqiao's fans in Dongyu would not agree.

This damn...

Just at this awkward moment, Tang Long next to them raised his hand and asked weakly.

"Everyone, may I say a word?"

Several people's gazes turned over in unison.

Tang Long continued: "There is one point that I feel you may have overlooked."

"This Thunder Emperors Eight Scenes Art has many advantages, but it has no text at all."

"And if this thunder emperor pearl is not controlled by me, it will also have some impact during the Empowerment."

Ritual Master Yu Hai was the first to frown, "There is such a thing? What is the specific impact?"

"Methods of tempering the spirit body, techniques of core combat skills, etc., are relatively core things. Of course, even a cultivation method passed down this way can still be practiced, and the upper limit can also reach the Spirit Map."

Shi Chengyu reacted immediately, "In other words, what is obtained solely through the thunder emperor pearl's Empowerment is another abridged version?"

Tang Long nodded, "That is exactly what you said."

"This, I also need to verify again."

Tang Long threw the thunder emperor pearl over directly. Shi Chengyu picked up the thunder emperor pearl and injected thunder spirit energy into it again.

Then...

The violent thunder and lightning power exploded, forming a thunder ring larger than the one Tang Long had just made, and even Wei Ye and Yun Zhuoyue retreated outside the thunder ring.

Ritual Master Yu Hai's luxurious robe was torn into several large holes within a few seconds, and a smell of burnt flesh emanated from his body.

A few seconds later, the thunder and lightning stopped abruptly.

Ritual Master Yu Hai immediately showed an embarrassed and annoyed expression.

"This... this is too different, isn't it? It has lost almost all of its core inheritance and has become an ordinary thunder-type Wuque Method."

Although an ordinary thunder-type Wuque Method is also very precious, the value gap is indeed huge compared to this Huagai Realm Wuque Method that can temper the spirit body and has core combat skills.

Before this, Ritual Master Yu Hai and Shi Chengyu felt that it was enough to get the heirloom treasure on this trip.

As for Tang Long the person, he was dispensable.

So even though Yun Zhuoyue had drawn her sword just now, they didn't react too strongly, feeling that it could be discussed.

But in the current situation, if you want the cultivation method, you must have the person. How can this still be discussed!

Wei Ye sighed, "Tang Long, then what are your own thoughts?"
