Tide of the Times
Quan Yi looked at Huo Wu's excited expression, but his face darkened slightly.
As Huo Wu spoke, she caught a glimpse of Quan Yi's silent expression, and her heart skipped a beat.
She asked, "Xiao Yi, is there a problem?"
Quan Yi looked into Huo Wu's eyes, feeling a pang of reluctance, but still managed to say with difficulty, "Xiao Wu, the development of the Blazing Fire Academy is not as simple as it seems."
Even if we do manage to win the All-Continent Advanced Academy Tournament, the development of the Blazing Fire Academy will still be greatly constrained.
The most significant factor is that the college's management style is too one-sided.
When Huo Wu heard Quan Yi's negative remarks about the Blazing Fire Academy, it caused her great shock.
She asked incredulously, "Why? Although the academy hasn't achieved any outstanding results in recent years..."
However, starting with our batch, the college has been moving in a better direction, and there are two of us in this year's cohort participating.
As long as we can leave a deep impression on the entire continent, we will surely be able to return to our former glory.
Huo Wu's idea was simple, but in a sense, it was also very correct.
However, a single victory cannot fundamentally change all of this.
He replied, "Xiao Wu, what I want to say has nothing to do with the outcome of the Tournament."
The biggest limitation of the Blazing Fire Academy is that it only admits children of nobles, completely abandoning students from the commoner class.
This meant that even though the academy gained a great reputation, it could not transform that reputation into nourishment for the academy's growth.
As an academy specializing in Fire-attribute, it should unconditionally accept any Fire-attribute Spirit Master meets the requirements.
However, the academy only opened its doors to nobles, keeping all commoners out.
In this way, even if we do gain a reputation, the academy will not be able to recruit more high-quality students.
Therefore, once we graduate from the college, the college will return to its previous state.
"Once we graduate, Spirit Hall Academy will once again take the top spot."
After years of observation, Quan Yi has come to understand the operating model of the Blazing Fire Academy.
This place only admits nobles and a very small number of exceptionally gifted students.
The advantage of doing this is that the academy can obtain huge funds from the nobles to maintain its operation, and at the same time, they can maintain their reputation by cultivating a small number of elites.
This approach was indeed very effective in the past and led to the great development of the college.
However, in today's world, such behavior is tantamount to stagnation.
You should know that the Spirit Hall Academy has gathered all the best students from across the entire continent.
Furthermore, they possess strong teaching resources, enabling them to provide individualized instruction to a certain extent.
In order to survive in the competition with the Spirit Hall, Blazing Fire Academy must also undergo major reforms.
However, even if Blazing Fire Academy removes the restrictions on commoners, it may not necessarily be able to overtake Spirit Hall.
The Spirit Hall wields unparalleled influence among the common people of the entire continent.
In addition, they also bear the responsibility of awakening Martial Soul for all civilians.
For this reason alone, the Spirit Hall holds an unshakable position in the hearts of the people of the mainland.
The authority of the Spirit Hall is far more terrifying than that of the previous generation.
It is highly likely that true gods exist in this world.
The power of the Spirit Hall has gradually reached its peak in recent years.
Quan Yi harbored a deep-seated worry that some kind of violent conflict would inevitably erupt on the mainland in the near future.
Quan Yi dared not say that he could predict accurately, but he could still feel the irreversible Tide of the Times approaching.
Blazing Fire Academy, Quan Family —how should they make the best choice amidst the Tide of the Times? Quan Yi often ponders this question in his spare time.
Today, Quan Yi suddenly offered his opinion to Huo Wu in an attempt to guide Blazing Fire Academy in a better direction.
Upon hearing Quan Yi's explanation, Huo Wu was also filled with a myriad of thoughts.
Spirit Hall.
It stands before you like a giant mountain.
Seventy percent of the Spirit Master on the mainland belong to this group.
Faced with such a terrifying force, Blazing Fire Academy could only try to survive by clinging to the margins.
future.
Huo Wu hadn't really thought about the distant future.
However, when the bloody reality was torn open by Quan Yi and placed before her, Huo Wu realized the seriousness of the situation.
Huo Wu looked at Quan Yi with hope and asked, "If we recruit ordinary students like Skywater Academy, can we reverse this situation?"
Quan Yi shook his head and replied, "It's not that simple. But if things don't change, Blazing Fire Academy will never be able to make any further progress."
When Huo Wu heard Quan Yi say this, she gained a deeper understanding of the situation.
She fell into deep thought.
Telling Huo Wu these things is actually putting a heavy burden on Huo Wu shoulders.
However, at the Blazing Fire Academy, Quan Yi is ultimately an outsider, and it's not his place to interfere.
Even if the academy were to be truly changed, Huo Wu is Quan Yi.
Quan Yi offered his opinion out of genuine concern for Huo Wu.
If it weren't for Huo Wu, even if Quan Yi saw these problems, he wouldn't have said anything.
The return trip took less time than I had imagined.
Even with the naked eye, Quan Yi could already see the outline of the town.
Huo Wu remained silent throughout, seemingly lost in complex thoughts.
Quan Yi spoke up, reminding her, "Xiao Wu, we're almost there."
"Okay, I understand," Huo Wu replied unconsciously.
Quan Yi felt a little angry when he saw that Huo Wu had lost her usual spirit.
He placed his hands on Huo Wu's shoulders, shook Huo Wu awake forcefully, and said, "Xiao Wu, are you going to give up now?"
Quan Yi's burning gaze met Huo Wu's eyes.
Lose? Am I afraid?
Huo Wu immediately realized that she had fallen into a negative emotional state.
Looking into Quan Yi's determined eyes, her heart skipped a beat.
She shouted back, "No, I won't admit defeat! So what if it's the Spirit Hall? I won't give up so easily."
At this moment, Huo Wu felt a surge of heroic spirit. Faced with immense psychological pressure, she bravely unleashed a roar of defiance.
Quan Yi then smiled and said, "This is my Xiao Wu."
At this moment, Huo Wu's state of mind crossed a chasm.
Huo Wu's eyes have lost some of their naivety and gained more resilience.
Upon returning to the academy, Huo Wu went straight to the Dean's Office without stopping.
Quan Yi knew that Huo Wu was making a suggestion to Huo Wuxie.
However, seeing Huo Wu's decisive actions made Quan Yi realize that Huo Wu was also changing.
"But isn't this a bit too hasty?"
Quan Yi shook his head helplessly, and then returned to his dormitory alone.
However, when Quan Yi returned to his dormitory, he found a letter from home.
Quan Yi opened the letter and quickly skimmed through the contents, but before Quan Yi could even finish the first page, his Quan Yi began to dilate violently.
"Snap!"
The letter in her hand involuntarily fell to the ground.
"I'm going to be a big brother!"
