The Demon Emperor stood bewildered, surrounded by the crowd.
"Congratulations, Demon Emperor. The Divine Academy will now bestow upon you the title of All-Knowing. We hope you will keep striving and continue bringing glory to the academy."
The Demon Emperor looked at the All-Knowing title branded into his body, then eyed Vice Principal Meng Qi warily. "What is this?"
Meng Qi smiled faintly. "This is a title. From now on, you can be called a Title-Bearer. This title contains the principal's blessing."
"Anyone below the level of a Perfect God cannot hurt you. Of course, this empowering energy is not inexhaustible, so you had best not provoke a Perfect God. You might also fail to withstand a large-scale siege."
Demon Emperor Daochen's eyes lit up. "I see. No wonder so many people want a title. So this is what titles do?"
Vice Principal Meng Qi shook his head. "Not every title has this effect. Each title works differently."
The Demon Emperor nodded thoughtfully. "Thank you, Vice Principal. Where else can I learn such knowledge besides the Library? I feel so empty."
At that moment, the Demon Emperor truly felt that way. He had become completely immersed in learning, unable to pull himself free.
Within books lay beauties with faces like jade; within books lay houses of gold. He truly felt the truth of those words. Only by gaining more knowledge could he equip himself with more means of self-preservation.
In the past, he had always solved problems through brute force and slaughter. Now, he realized he had been utterly foolish, nothing but a reckless brute.
But he also understood that only when he possessed sufficient strength would he be qualified to challenge those truly powerful beings.
His knowledge was sufficient now, but his strength still needed to grow.
