In the afternoon, after discussing the details with Ning Fengzhi, he went to the Crown Prince's Residence.

At this moment, Xue Qinghe sat by the window of his study, his right hand supporting his head, gazing at the scenery in the garden, feeling quite melancholy.

It was he who spearheaded the proposal to have Wu Qi join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

The original intention was to bring Wu Qi closer to him to facilitate communication between the two.

However, as Wu Qi began to distinguish himself, the Worship Hall surprisingly arranged for them to drop out of school.

This move was naturally influenced by the assassination plot orchestrated by Bibi Dong, coupled with the alliance between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Worship Hall. Bibi Dong were to take further action, the experts of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would not be as restrained as those of the Worship Hall.

But all of this completely disrupted Xue Qinghe's plans.

His master-disciple relationship with Ning Fengzhi was quite awkward. Wu Qi joined Seven Treasures Academy, and if he wanted to see Ning Fengzhi again in the future, he would have to deal with him in every way.

Moreover, he originally intended to use the power of Wu Qi and others to completely kick Prince Xue Xing's forces out of the Royal Fight Academy.

At present, we have no choice but to take a long-term view.

Before long, the Snake Lance Douluo's voice drifted into my ears, "Young Master, Wu Qi."

Xue Qinghe regained his senses and looked towards the gate.

He rubbed his nose, looking exhausted, and said, "He should know about Grandpa's plans. Hopefully, he has a good countermeasure."

As there was a knock on the study door, Xue Qinghe opened it himself.

"Hey, have a seat."

With a long sigh, Xue Qinghe sat down at his desk, looking utterly exhausted.

"Why is Your Crown Prince so troubled?" Wu Qi asked.

Xue Qinghe made a gesture, and the entire study was completely sealed off by the Snake Lance and the Thorn Blood Douluo.

"Grandpa suddenly changed his mind, catching me completely off guard."

"If your transfer to another school midway through the semester is not handled properly, you could easily be scorned by the world. I must sacrifice a great deal of resources to expel you from the academy in order to avoid ruining your reputation."

Wu Qi and Qiangu Changkong have been members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy for several months and have acquired a considerable amount of Cultivation resources.

To transfer schools, you must have a valid reason.

Expelling them seemed to be the only option.

It could alienate talented people, greatly damage Xue Qinghe's reputation, and become a reason for high-ranking officials in the court to attack him.

Wu Qi smiled calmly.

Xue Qinghe's main focus was not on the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and he was unaware of recent events.

He paused for a moment, then shared his opinion.

Without damaging Xue Qinghe's reputation, only Prince Xue Xing can handle this matter.

Without a doubt, the credit for this should go to Prince Xue Xing.

Xue Xing will not give up this hard-won opportunity and will definitely seek power for herself.

At that time, bearing the "crime" of misjudging and mismanaging people, Xue Qinghe's forces will have to withdraw from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

As the cradle for cultivating talent in the empire, he was unwilling to relinquish it easily.

Wu Qi countered, "Your Crown Prince, if you want to overthrow Prince Xue Xing, you must relinquish some power, mustn't you?"

"You've suppressed Prince Xue Xing so severely that he's confined to his residence all day. How could he possibly have any leverage over him?"

"Management Academy seems easy, but it's actually very difficult. Once he gains power, he'll inevitably expose his weaknesses. At that point, he'll not only lose power but also lose Dugu Bo's favor, making him an easy target to manipulate."

Xue Qinghe didn't dare to push Xue Xing and his nephew too hard, partly because he was worried about Xue Ye holding him accountable, and partly because he was afraid that Dugu Bo, that troublemaker, would ruin things.

Originally, Dugu Bo shouldn't have owed this favor in the first place.

It's all because of Bibi Dong's questionable actions that he's constantly hampered.

The child pays for the mother's debts.

He could only adopt a roundabout strategy, first expanding the number of his own allies, and then using his influence to suppress Xue Xing and his nephew.

Wu Qi's strategy was a brilliant plan that killed three birds with one stone.

"So, I must pretend I didn't see what happened at the academy?"

Wu Qi loosened his collar and said with a smile, "It's getting hot, Your Highness, why don't you go to escape the heat and relax?"

With Xue Qinghe not in Heaven Dou City, Qin Ming will definitely try to take this opportunity to make things irreversible and secure the Team Two spot.

This move not only spared Xue Qinghe from conflict but also forced Qin Ming to expose his weaknesses, making it a clever strategy.

After a brief conversation, Xue Qinghe became more open-minded and cheerful.

"I am currently very busy with official duties, and I'm afraid Imperial Father is unlikely to grant me leave. How about this, I will go out under the pretext of Soul Hunting, for about a month. Is that enough?"

"That's enough." Wu Qi nodded.

After completing the details, he got up and left.

Watching his retreating figure, Xue Qinghe couldn't help but sigh, "Grow up quickly. With a strategist like you in the Worship Hall, the Empress won't be left helpless."

This time, he was fortunate to have Wu Qi's plan; otherwise, he really wouldn't know what to do.

Xue Qinghe was absolutely certain that there was always someone holding him back.

Five days passed quietly.

It was no secret in Heaven Dou City that Xue Qinghe had entered Sunset Forest in a grand manner with his Guard Unit under the guise of Soul Hunting.

Qian Renxue absorbed the Immortal Herb, and her cultivation level has broken through to level seventy.

I didn't have time to get away and planned to postpone the Soul Hunting for a while.

Now, with Wu Qi's plan, she can obtain the Soul Ring while also completing her mission, achieving multiple goals at once.

However, Xue Qinghe at this time was replaced by another of her substitutes, whose Martial Soul was Swan, and whose strength had just reached Level 40.

You should know that without thorough preparation, her identity would have been exposed long ago.

Inside the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Just as Wu Qi had predicted, Qin Ming seized this opportunity and used various forms of coercion and enticement to force him to hand over the right to form the Team Two.

As a result, the two argued incessantly, even escalating to the point of involving the Education Committee.

When Xue Qinghe went out to Soul Hunting, Meng Shenji could not consult him and could only make judgments based on his own ideas.

"Little Wu, I truly regret what I did wrong. But we were all fighting for the honor of the empire. You are all very strong. If you were to split up and each join one of the two Imperial Fighting Team, it's entirely possible that you could achieve the feat of both teams advancing to the Finals together."

"The Empire is weak, Star Luo Empire has repeatedly harassed its borders. The Empire needs a resounding victory to stabilize morale among all parties."

Meng Shenji's motivation was to enhance his personal political achievements.

The Royal Fight Team Two is very strong now, and in his opinion, reaching the Finals is not a problem.

However, their strength is clearly excessive. If both teams could reach the Finals and defeat the other Battle Team, it would be a remarkable story.

For the Three Education Committee Members, given the same conditions, there was no reason not to achieve better results.

Qin Ming echoed, "The Three Education Committee Members are deeply principled and always consider the interests of the empire, unlike some people who disregard the empire's interests for their own selfish gain."

Wu Qi remained silent.

Qin Ming had clearly come prepared; if he spoke now, he could easily be accused of disrespecting the Imperial Family.

Of course, he wouldn't give in easily in order for the plan to go smoothly.
