Ranking Of Kings: My Land Is SSS Rank - Chapter 707

707 The Invitation from the Academy

For example, alchemy. The pills that could be refined now were only the most ordinary of pills, and the success rate was not high. They couldn’t set up a pill-refining division in the Immortal Academy. Cai Yong would never agree to it. This level of skill could not convince the masses.

In the academy, strength was everything. Strength was the basis of everything.

Of course, Song Yingxing knew about Immortal Academy. It wasn’t that he had never thought about it before. However, he was now personally invited by the head of the academy, Cai Yong, and the heir of the agricultural family. They were willing to let him become the head of the agricultural division. These changes made him look surprised and excited.

Being in the Kingdom of Dawn, he naturally knew about Li Xiang, Cai Yong, and Huang Chengyan, who all held high positions of power. This was especially so for the Immortal Academy. Cai Yong was the head of the academy, and Huang Chengyan was the head-to-be of the Confucianism division. He was highly respected.

!!
He was now invited to join the Immortal Academy and become the head of the agricultural division. This was simply a blessing from heaven.

“Okay! I’m willing! Of course!”

Song Yingxing agreed without hesitation. “My greatest wish in life is to pass down the skills of our ancestors so that more people know about them and acknowledge them. I’ll pass down the skills and benefit more people. I’m not good at agriculture. But since everyone is willing to believe in me, I’ll work harder and strive to achieve greater results in agriculture.”

He had always advocated that skills should not be kept to oneself, but should be passed on so that more people could learn and know about them, and then carry them forward. Only by communicating with each other could sparks of wisdom be produced. What he had yearned for the most was the spring and autumn period, when Hundred Schools of Thought fought for supremacy. That was the fertile land for the development of all knowledge.

To preserve the wealth left behind by the ancestors, he wrote ‘Tiangong Kaiwu’.

As long as he could benefit the people, so what if he was a farmer?

Moreover, agriculture was one of the Hundred Schools of Thought, and its status was not low.

Food was the most important thing to the people. This was a principle that had never changed.

Even though cultivators could survive without eating, what was fun in living if they even stopped eating? Cultivation wasn’t about becoming a stone. Being transcendent was also to surpass the ordinary. It was to be free and unfettered, but not to stop being human.

“Alright, the Immortal Academy welcomes Mr. Song! With Mr. Song here, I believe that the agricultural division will head towards glory!” Cai Yong came forward with a face full of smiles as he spoke with joy.

Recruiting such great talent was a great boost to the Immortal Academy’s foundation.

Furthermore, according to the information sent by the eye demon, Han Sui had already confirmed that he would open a political strategist division in the Immortal Academy after the mission was completed. Huang Chengyan, on the other hand, had to take the responsibility for the Confucian division. Whereas the School of the Military had yet to confirm them. At least three divisions were about to open. At that time, it would be much easier to recruit students and cultivate talents. The influence would also increase rapidly.

“Country Lord, I’ll let you have these snow crystal rice seeds. However, I plan to keep a portion of it. Since I’m in charge of the agricultural division, I have to have the spiritual rice seeds to cultivate. Farmers understood through farming and grew through practice. Planting the spiritual rice is a good practice!” Song Yingxing quickly got into his role and made his request.

He wanted to keep a portion of the snow crystal rice. The spiritual rice should have belonged to him. He was expressing his position by saying this.

Li Xiang smiled indifferently and said calmly, “Mr. Song, you’re being too serious! The snow crystal rice is born because of you, so it belongs to you. You have the right to make the arrangements. However, I hope that you can leave some of the seeds for me as I have other uses for them. And these ten acres of spiritual fields can be managed by the agricultural division. You can decide on what use it will be used for.”

He naturally needed spiritual rice like snow crystal rice, but he did not need too much. He only needed a portion as seeds. He could plant it in the World Tree Space later to improve and increase its production.

“Many thanks, Country Lord!”

With the spiritual fields, the development of agriculture would skyrocket.

“How about we make today the day for the agricultural division to join the Immortal Academy? There’s the snow crystal rice that Mr. Song cultivated, and the natural phenomenon that gave birth to the spiritual fields and spiritual springs. This is a good sign. It’s a joyous day for the farmers. I’m afraid it’ll be hard to find such a good opportunity in the future. What do you think, Mr. Song?” Cai Yong suddenly suggested after pondering for a moment.

Today was indeed a rare good day for the farmers.

“I agree. The Confucian division has already built its school previously. As long as any division joins, the academy would naturally give birth to a piece of land that belonged to the division. However, each division still needs to build it themselves as for how to build it,” said Huang Chengyan with a smile.

“Alright, let’s do it today!” Song Yingxing agreed decisively after some thought.

When the other farmers heard this, their faces revealed happy expressions.

“Alright, I’ll go with you. I haven’t entered the Immortal Academy yet. I’m going there to give the academy a big gift, ” said Li Xiang with a smile.

“Thank you for your hard work, my fellow Straw men! I’ll send you another generous gift later.” Li Xiang came to the rice field and said to the golden Straw men.

The golden Straw men replied calmly, “Protecting the rice fields, protecting the grain, and defeating the grain thieves are our inborn duties. There’s no need to thank us!”

After thanking the Straw men and settling the follow-up matters, Li Xiang and the others headed straight for the Immortal Academy.

When the civilians saw that there was a show, they called their friends and followed.

“D*mn it, I didn’t expect Rat Devourers to die so quickly. I can’t even react. Since the Kingdom of Dawn could find such a group of magical Straw men to guard the rice fields, the plan to disrupt the people’s morale with food could no longer be continued. Even Rat Devourers were captured and sent to the Heavenly Prison. I’m afraid that they’re most likely dead.”

In the shadows somewhere, a mysterious figure revealed a cold gaze.

He had seen the entire scene from the beginning to the end. If he had not seen it personally, he would never have believed that those Straw men could be so terrifying. The strength of the Kingdom of Dawn was far more shocking than he had imagined.

He had to be extremely careful when dealing with the Kingdom of Dawn. If something went wrong, they would be buried first instead of the people’s morale being disrupted.

“This is interesting. The more difficult something is, the more I’ll feel the sense of accomplishment.”

The figure slowly muttered in a low voice, and the eagerness in his heart grew stronger and stronger.
