The next issue was recruiting high-level talent. Many outstanding individuals had joined the major sects, while very few had truly entered the Empire.
That alone would have been manageable, but some sect forces even entertained other ambitions.
Take the ambush carried out by the Strength Clan and the Speed Clan last time. They had truly become lawless, showing no regard whatsoever for imperial authority.
"Take it slowly. Don't rush. The key to Empire Academy is purity. We must ensure its internal purity. Whether they come from sects, noble families, or even our imperial family, not a single one may enter."
After sternly reminding them, Xue Ye did not want this place to become a second Imperial Academy. He was thoroughly disappointed in that side and was even preparing to halve Imperial Academy's funding this year and transfer it to Empire Academy.
"Father, the investigation into Shrek Academy has been completed. The results were fairly acceptable. Most of them basically knew nothing, but the majority of their teachers have scattered and gone to the Star Luo Empire, taking some students with them. A new Shrek Academy has already been established there."
Qian Renxue brought up Shrek Academy's situation. The ambush incident had been connected to Shrek, and in the end, Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao had taken Tang San and the others away.
Since it had been during the finals, it would not have been appropriate to stir up internal conflict and let outsiders laugh at them. That would not have suited her image as the Empire's crown prince.
Thus, she had postponed dealing with the matter and ordered an investigation after returning. Broadly speaking, there had been no major issues.
Yet they had still run away, and the Star Luo Empire had long since begun building a new Shrek Academy.
