After the invention of the "demon school’, the people most affected were the other Emperor Lineages as they were also trying to find a way to control this aspect of Merit and Qi Luck of the concept of school. Unfortunately, Wang Wei was prepared beforehand and got there before them.

Many people did not expect that the Dao Opening Sect would use the Fox Demon clan that betrayed the Demon Race more than a century ago. As such, many people started to wonder whether Wang Wei planned all of this back then; back when he was like 8 years old and invited the Fox Clan to help him refine the Pagoda.

Unfortunately, these people gave him too much credit. To achieve this plan, a great deal of knowledge and information regarding the workings of Qi Luck is needed. And Wang Wei only reached that level during his Qi Luck Trial after his Luck turned from black to Gold.

Another group or race that was affected by the recent situation was of course the Spirit Race. Regrettably, the school system could not apply to them because of how their race is created.

Like the Demon Race, the Spirit Race contained individuals or things who have gained sentience, like plants, flowers, stones, weapons, or even concepts like dreams. However, the Spirit race is the darling of Heaven and Earth. Due to how difficult it is for these things to acquire wisdom, as soon as they do, they will be baptized by Heaven and Earth and turned into human shape.

Furthermore, each Spirit race is born with their inheritance designed specifically by Heaven and Earth, so they usually do not need cultivation techniques from other people. As such, each new member of the Spirit race is usually a very talented individual.

In general, the Spirit Race is similar to a lesser version of the Primordial Gods and Innate Demons from the Primordial Era. Born from Heaven and Earth, granted own cultivation technique at birth, extremely talented, and usually have a longer lifespan than ordinary cultivators.

The only difference between them is the fact that the Spirit Race is not born with an extremely high cultivation realm. The majority of them have to start cultivating from scratch after taking human shape. While some more talented might be born in the Body Refining Realm or Divine Sea Realm. Only a very few talented ones are born in the Divine Altar Realm.

As such, the concept of Academy did not apply to them because all their members are born with their fitted cultivation technique. As for the concept of school, it cannot apply to them as well--even the demon version of it.

The members of the Spirit Race are too diverse; after all, technically speaking, anything object--both organic or inorganic--can become a member of their race as long as they gained sentience.

For example, one of the most famous Great Emperors of the Spirit Race is the Everlasting Dream Emperor, the founder of the Eternal Dream Sect located in the Southern Vermillion Bird Continent.

One of the reasons that he is so famous was not only because of his power but his interesting origin. Back in the Incense Era, one Great Emperor tried to destroy one of the Forbidden Land, but was failed and was injured instead.

To recuperate from his injury, he entered a deep slumber. And during that slumber, the Great Emperor Started to dream. Of course, as a higher being, his dream was not a normal one, so it affected the entire area that he was sleeping, turning it into his dream.

Even after that Emperor recuperated and left the Myriad Emperor World, his dream remained in that area. Then after a few millennia, his dream gained sentience and turned into human shape; it turned into a member of the Spirit Race.

Later, that Spirit Race went on to prove the Dao and took the name Everlasting Dream, created the Eternal Dream Sect.

So, with the complexity of the Spirit Race, the school system provided them with no advantage. Nevertheless, some people were still willing to try the same method as the Demon Race: preaching to inanimate objects to see whether they can accelerate the rate at which members of their clans can be born.

Dao Opening Sect, Tianwei Peak:

Wang Wei was having a meeting with all the upper echelons of the sect; they were going over all the problems that arose in the past few days.

"Anything to report?" asked Wang Wei.

"Everything seemed to be going well with a few minor problems," said one of the Great Elders. "It’s a shame that the Emperor Enlightening Academy already secretly controlled the Qi Luck aspect related to ’Demon Academy’, otherwise we could have done even more damage to them."

"Well, Emperor Kong was a very wise individual, how could he not notice such benefit and leaving it for others to exploit," replied Wang Wei calmly. "Anyway, we are still the ones who benefited the most in this situation. Now, let’s talk about the minor problems you mentioned."

"Many of the Emperor factions have sent complained about not sharing the benefit of the Demon School Luck."

"Ignore them. If they were the ones who executed this idea first, they would never share the benefit," responded Wang Wei. "Anything else?"

"The number of mortals attending school is not as high as predicted."

"The reason?"

"Many of them need to farm to feed their family, so they are worried about the next harvest."

"Send a few Divine Sea Realm disciples that know water spell to help irrigate their farms and the ones who know Wood Spells to further increase the yield of each field.

"However, this is not a permanent solution. We need the mortals to be self-sufficient to some degree. So, let’s start introducing the farming constructs that I made during my Qi Luck Trial to them. Not just them, but all the ones that I used to make the Great Xia Dynasty so prosperous."

"Young Sect Master, should we be worried about other sects stealing our blueprints for the constructs."

"There is no need to worry about that as these constructs are not that difficult to copy. The technical aspect of them is not as high as you imagine. All we need to focus on is to get as much benefit as possible as quickly as possible.

"As for other factions copying us, it is inevitable, but we will still have a large enough headstart to dramatically increase our advantages."

Of course, Wang Wei was not telling the whole truth; he wanted these factions to copy him. He always wanted to bring the civilization of the Myriad Emperor World forward, yet he also knew how difficult it would be with the somewhat conservative and backward mentality of many of these factions.

However, now was his chance to do it without anyone even noticing. By advancing the Domains that the Dao Opening Sect from the ancient time to a more modern time through Artifact Refining, many other factions--after noticing and envying all the benefit that their sect is receiving--will secretly copy their actions to gather more merit and more Luck.

In that way, thinking that it was their ideas, will slowly start developing their own Domains. Wang Wei can foresee that soon, there will Crawling Dragon Constructs (modern train), Soaring Phoenix Constructs (modern plane), and Flying Horse Carriage (modern car) all over the Myriad Emperor World.

By the time some people notice something wrong, the world would have changed so much that it would be very difficult to change back.

"What about the nobles and wealthy of the mortal kingdoms? How did they react?" asked Wang Wei.

"Well, given the fact that education used to be the way that they enforced their rules over ordinary people, all of them were not happy about the situation. Some of them even tried to use force to prevent commoners from attending the schools. Of course, with us cultivators intervening in the situation, they were forced to compromise.

"However, I heard a few mortal kings became mad and ordered the massacre of all the people in their kingdom."

"These people should not be a problem, right?" asked Wang Wei.

"No problem at all."

After nodding, he continued asking: "What about the Western White Tiger Continent? Not a lot of Emperor Lineage from there participated in this plan, so how did the devil cultivators there act?"

"Them? They also started schools!"

"Oh," responded Wang Wei with a little surprise. "Did they want to use merit to offset some of their bad karma?"

"That’s correct."

Wang Wei nodded, then he spent a few hours dealing with all the issues concerning the recent events. After the meeting finished, he flew straight into the Alchemy Hall.

Inside a room, he saw Yan Liling sitting cross-legged across a still comatose Li Jun with a look of worry on her face. So, he patted her shoulder while saying:

"You do not have to worry about him, he is just in a deep state of enlightenment. And even if something were to happen to him, I would find a way to save him."

Yan Liling nodded as she was reassured; given the world-shaking things that Wang Wei did in the past few days, she believed in his words.
