Finals (I)

"No."

Ye Qingcang shook his head.

He knew Violet's difficulties.

I also understand Violet's difficulties.

Any reports on what Blue Tyrant Academy needs will eventually end up on Violet's desk. Apart from the previously mentioned Pseudo-Miracle and other forbidden items, Violet has the right to freely allocate and control everything else. Naturally, she will bear the responsibility for the consequences. If there are not enough resources, she will have to find a solution herself, because even if she tells Ye Qingcang Ye Qingcang will still be helpless and will have to use Alchemy to transform certain things and create corresponding resources to fill the gap.

Therefore, even if he relinquishes all power.

He didn't say whether Violet did something good or bad.

Do not put pressure on Violet.

Even as the arbiter, Violet still experiences pressure on herself.

Because she was well aware of the weight of power.

Because she was well aware of how many people her order would affect.

Because she is a responsible person.

They have certain requirements for themselves.

How could there not be difficulties in this situation?

But understanding is not the same as agreeing.

"The drawbacks of doing this are too great."

"Regarding finances, I remember telling you that there are essentially two paths: increasing revenue and reducing expenditure... Increasing revenue means opening up another avenue. Originally, you relied on one industry to make money, but now you rely on two industries. Even if the two industries only generate 60% of the revenue, combined, it's still 120% of the income, which is significantly more than the original 100% income. As for reducing expenditure, as you just mentioned, we can start with areas that have a minimal impact, cutting expenses by 10%, 20%, or 30% of the original 100% expenditure. In short, the specific percentage should be determined according to the needs. The cut-off portion can then be invested in other industries."

"You should understand this principle, right?"

Ye Qingcang confirmed with Violet.

Violet nodded.

As the actual administrator of the Blue Tyrant Academy.

She certainly understood these simple and easy-to-understand principles.

But as the de facto administrator of the college, she had to consider a way out.

yes.

Blue Tyrant Academy is currently able to sustain itself.

We are far from reaching a dead end.

But what happens when the virtuous cycle is broken?

This is already a rather dangerous sign.

Violet wasn't one to sit idly by and wait for death, so she sincerely expressed her thoughts. "I understand this principle, and I understand what you mean. You're afraid that the academy will lose credibility and its reputation will be ruined... It's like planting a tree; it takes ten years for a sapling to grow into a towering tree, but ten minutes can bring it down... To use our home to play against the Gods is something they'd rather risk than us. It's not a question of whether it's worth it, but rather that the Gods Gods n't deserve for us to take this risk... But what I mean is: shouldn't we make some plans to cut our losses and prepare for the worst-case scenario?"

"There's no need."

Watching the battle between Shui Bing'er and Ma Xiaotao below the stage, Ye Qingcang, after clearly answering Violet's question, changed the subject and asked in return, "Do you know why this contest started?"

"To avoid putting ourselves in a passive position."

"Right now, we are indeed in a somewhat passive position."

"But this passivity will gradually turn into initiative over time."

"Because we are at our weakest right now."

"As we gradually grow up..."

"It's a state of ebb and flow."

"If we choose to defend in the early stages, not to mention what the Gods will choose, just the Poseidon Tang San, and even the God King Tang San, and their friends will not give us time to develop."

"There are many fence-sitters."

"Either everyone pushes the wall when it's falling."

"Either you fall from grace and everyone pushes you down."

Violet's insightful observations and accurate predictions of the future are remarkable.

To put it bluntly, Ye Qingcang's proactive intervention in the situation has left the Gods with a multiple-choice question, because Ye Qingcang's intervention involves the Gods ' own interests, Gods will never betray their own interests.

But if Ye Qingcang doesn't take the initiative to intervene in the situation.

Even not intervening in the situation.

For a neutral Deity, suppose one day the Poseidon Tang San said, "Brother, do me a favor. I need to deal with a mortal, but the God of Destruction are watching me too closely, so it's inconvenient for me to take action. If you help me this time, we can be friends from now on."

Can this neutral Deity impartially refuse Tang San?

Just kidding.

The Deity in the Divine Realm are merely titles.

What Ice God?

What kind of Fire God is this?

And the God of Time.

The God of Time is ranked among the Second Level God, which is simply outrageous!

Poseidon is a joke!

Even Angel God are like this!

Therefore, since the Gods in the Divine Realm are not the kind of heartless and desireless true gods, but a group of humans with seemingly powerful nicknames, it is quite normal for them to show favoritism and build relationships!

At that time, even if Ye Qingcang said, "Your Excellency, this neutral Deity, you may consider whether it is necessary to offend me for the sake of the Poseidon Tang San or the God King Tang San," it would not be entirely unprofitable for this neutral Deity!

To put it bluntly, they are Deity.

People regard Poseidon Tang San, as one of their own.

They see themselves as a completely new race.

Who cares about your self-proving value?

Even if you stake your life on it, in their eyes it won't compare to the personal friendship they share with their peers.

"So... even if a dog stakes its entire life on it, it can't compare to two banknotes in the eyes of humans, or the opportunity for advancement in the eyes of humans..." Ye Qingcang often viewed problems from an overly rational perspective, so the problem he had to face was negative emotions. Fortunately, he was always able to overcome this negativity. "In this way, the answer to the problem is obvious: I initiated this game to gain more initiative, and the reason I gained initiative was because I didn't want to be pushed around by the situation and unknowingly spread chaos to the academy... Since there's no need for that now, don't include the relatively abundant resources in the scope, because the duration of this game is uncertain, and no matter how much you throw in, it won't fill a bottomless pit."

"Clear."

After a moment's thought, Violet replied in a deep voice.

Then, they turned their attention to the area below.

It was placed on Shui Bing'er and Ma Xiaotao, who were locked in combat.

He changed the subject and remarked, "After the Top Eight, it's the Top Four, then the semifinals to two, then the semifinals to one. If I hadn't run into you beforehand, I imagine the final would have been between you and me... So, what do you think? Should I just concede, or have a proper match, or perhaps a real fight?"

"You decide what to do yourself?"

"What if our opponents in the finals really are you and me?"

It doesn't matter who wins.

"I can admit defeat."

"Breaking even... that's the only goal I see in this final."

"Honors and benefits... are all meaningless to me. Even without this championship title, I can still get it if I want it."

Ye Qingcang shrugged.

It was something he hadn't expected.

As he predicted, his opponent in the finals was none other than Violet, a prediction that proved prophetic yet perfectly reasonable.
