After Bai Xu finished speaking
He calmly picked up his teacup and drank the water.
Waiting for Ye Ran to digest...
The room fell silent for a moment.
A moment later, Ye Ran raised his head.
"So, what are your thoughts?" Bai Xu asked Ye Ran first.
"Can we trust Viktor?" Ye Ran asked Bai Xu.
Bai Xu rolled his eyes: "Don't worry, Velcz and I have a soul contract. Even if you betray me now, Velcz will never betray me."
Hearing Bai Xu say this,
Ye Ran felt relieved.
Then, he took a deep breath, his face thoughtful:
"I thought it was just a simple competition, but I never expected the West to be pulling such a big stunt behind the scenes..."
Bai Xu looked at Ye Ran and sighed:
"There's nothing we can do. Plans can't keep up with changes. Things just piled up all at once. Come to think of it, isn't it all because of you?"
Hearing Bai Xu's scolding, Ye Ran smiled awkwardly.
Indeed, if I hadn't killed that young master Zhuge myself, none of these subsequent events would have occurred.
"So, Principal, what do you plan to do?" Ye Ran asked.
Bai Xu looked at Ye Ran and said:
“I have already had Vicz pass on a message to them: all the problems in the Dragon Kingdom are in Shanghai, and they are required to gather in Shanghai.”
"At that time, I will gather all available forces and attack them by surprise..."
Hearing Bai Xu's suggestion, Ye Ran frowned:
"However, even so, it's only a temporary solution, not a permanent one. After all, our Dragon Kingdom has lost a pillar family..."
Bai Xu sighed: "Even if it's just a temporary fix, what can we do? As long as this show of force is effective, they won't dare to test us for at least a few years. We've bought ourselves some time..."
Then, Bai Xu looked at Ye Ran:
"So, your task is very challenging. You young people need to make up for this missing piece of strength as soon as possible..."
"I've calculated it. The Zhuge family's lost strength, in terms of high-end combat power, would require at least three nation-slaying level experts and four extraordinary level experts to barely sustain it..."
"You've trained four platinum-level students in less than six months. If you were given another two years, training seven extraordinary individuals wouldn't be unreasonable, would it?"
Listening to what Bai Xu said,
Ye Ran gave a wry smile: "No... Principal, this is a superhuman, not a hen giving birth..."
"I don't care, you're responsible for the mess you made." Bai Xu covered his ears like a child.
Anyway, the blame is going to be shifted to Ye Ran.
Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, Ye Ran sighed and nodded: "Alright, Principal, stop covering your ears. I'll do my best."
Seeing that Ye Ran had admitted it, Bai Xu finally let go of his ear, and even offered a word of comfort:
"Don't be so downcast. Think about it, this is also a good opportunity for you."
"With the fall of the Zhuge family, we are now in a period of transition. I can assure you that the extraordinary individuals you cultivate will fill all the vacant positions in the Zhuge family."
Bai Xu spoke softly, like a demon's whisper.
“Those are all crucial positions. When the time comes, your influence in the Dragon Kingdom will be absolutely unparalleled.”
"Who knows, maybe in two years, you'll be a member of the Dragon Club..."
Bai Xu kept painting a rosy picture for Ye Ran.
Unfortunately, Ye Ran couldn't eat it.
Ye Ran waved his hand and looked at Bai Xu:
"Principal, I'm a bit full, let's not talk about this for now."
"Principal, besides this, what else do you plan to use to lure all those experts to Shanghai? They also need to verify the authenticity of the information Viktor transmitted, right...?"
Bai Xu looked at Ye Ran, frowned, and said to Ye Ran:
"That's one of the reasons I came to you. You're full of clever ideas, can you give us some suggestions?"
Ye Ran looked at Bai Xu speechlessly, then pointed to himself:
"Headmaster, are you sure? Me? A nobody Platinum-level kid? You want me to find a way to seduce dozens of extraordinary individuals, possibly even including top-tier powerhouses like the Pope of the Holy See, the Magic Saint of the Magic Academy, and the Wolf King of the Werewolf Tribe?"
"Otherwise what?" Bai Xu looked at Ye Ran as if it were a matter of course.
That "Otherwise what?" made Ye Ran cough a few times.
Bai Xu then said to Ye Ran:
"Ye Ran, this is a matter of life and death for the Dragon Kingdom, so don't refuse!"
"Think it over carefully. We'll provide the manpower and resources needed!! Don't worry, you'll definitely get your share of the profits if this succeeds!!"
Ye Ran looked at Bai Xu, sighed, and then analyzed in a serious tone:
"General Ye's notification was timely, so the news outside is that a major upheaval has occurred in the Dragon Kingdom, and the borders have been closed, but the reason for the closure is unknown, right?"
"Um."
"So, we just need to find a reason, a reason that will be enough to lure even the strongest experts."
Bai Xu looked at Ye Ran, narrowed his eyes, and said:
You mean to say...
Ye Ran looked at Bai Xu and replied:
"What you peak experts want, Principal Bai, do you think you don't know?"
Ye Ran paused for a moment, then slowly said,
"Isn't it just something related to world-destroying matters...?"
Hearing this, he shifted his posture and began to ponder.
"That makes sense..."
After a moment, he said to Ye Ran:
"What is that world-destroying level inheritance? What are its manifestations? Those guys aren't stupid; you can't lure sharks in with empty words..."
Ye Ran nodded:
“I am naturally aware of that… I will figure out a way to spread the news of the emergence of the world-destroying inheritance, but I need you to create momentum for it.”
"What kind of momentum are we creating?" Bai Xu asked, puzzled.
"Hold a competition?" Ye Ran asked.
"Whether it's a competition or any other activity, the key is that the applicant must not be an official from our organization, but the activity must have been secretly promoted and developed by our organization. The effort must be significant, the publicity must be extensive, but we must ensure confidentiality."
"Then have Velcz spread the word that this event is about finding the right person for this world-destroying opportunity..."
Upon hearing this,
Bai Xu was stunned for a moment:
"Will this... will this work???"
Ye Ran looked at Bai Xu:
"If you just bluntly say there's an opportunity in Shanghai and then vigorously promote the event, would you participate?"
"Only by doing this can we confuse those forces and make them believe that we are secretly screening for the chosen one in the Dragon Kingdom."
