After setting up the meeting with the Academy, Wang Wei started thinking about the things that happened to him recently, and he was not happy. He has noticed that strange things keep happening around him, and he could not control any of it.

Whether it was having Heart Demon Tribulation twice of the things related to this book, strange and incontrollable events keep happening around him, and the lack of information has annoyed him greatly.

He felt that something beyond his comprehension and understanding is happening, and although he is related to it, he cannot do anything about it.

Wang Wei does not believe that he is a control-freak. Throughout his short century of living, many things have happened that were outside of prediction or controlled. His Divine Punishment Thunder being one of the major ones.

However, during those events, he could think calmly and devised the necessary plans to ensure not only his survival, but also benefit from the situation. However, recent events have made him completely clueless, and he did not like that.

After thinking about these things, he then took out a talisman from his space ring; it was the one that the old beggar gave him. He had a feeling that that old beggar had an inkling of what was going on with him.

However, he did not activate the token; he felt that it was not time yet.

The next day, Wang Wei woke up earlier, was led by Supreme Elder Yan Chen to meet with the upper echelons of the Academy.

He entered a small room where he saw a few teachers sitting cross-legged on futons with an old man with long white hair and beard; he recognized this sage-like old man as the headmaster of the Academy, Bai Han.

The old headmaster was actually his father's greatest enemy during their generation. Even his name was in the second place on the Heavenly Dao Protection Book.

After entering the room, Wang Wei saw a futon in the middle of the room with a small wooden table in front of it. The futon was facing all the other teachers, and was positioned at a lower level than them.

As soon as he entered the room, Wang Wei felt countless powerful aura trying to intimate him. As a matter of fact, even Yan Chen was suppressed by a few other True Monarchs; however, none of them cared about such a thing.

Yan Chen was used to this kind of behavior as the rivalry of the Dao Opening Sect and the Emperor Enlightening Sect has been going on for an entire Era. The last Great Emperor of the sect was during the Devil Era, while the last one for the Academy was at the beginning of the New Emperor Era.

Since then, these two sects have been competing with another for countless millennia.

As for Wang Wei, he did care about these people's aura. As a person who has faced the Wrath of Heavenly Dao directly and won, he did not care about a few Saint's Aura. So, he took his seat in the middle and started tasting the food that they served. As for Yan Chen, he merged into the Void and left the negotiation to the young sect master.

"Sacred Son Wang Wei, what brings you to meet us today?" asked Bai Han with a gentle smile on his face. He has the look of a dotting grandpa talking to his descendants.

Of course Wang Wei will not be affected by his demeanor. Forget the little stunt that these people just did to him, he did not believe that anyone who could sit at such a powerful position would be a harmless grandfather.

"Well, headmaster, I have run into a little problem, and I would like your help to solve it."

"Is that so? Did you not like the reception of our Academy? If there was something that we could do to remedy the situation, please say."

"No, your reception was more than satisfactory. I do not think that my sect could do any better. The trouble I am having is the fact that I do not wish to place my name on the Heavenly Dao Book, and I was wondering if it is possible to see the Dao Tablets without doing so."

Many people frowned after hearing this. A meeting took place last night after the Academy heard the request of the Dao Opening Sect. Many people tried to come up with a reason for such a sudden meeting, but they did not expect that the answer would be this.

"Do you think that our Academy would ruin our reputations in order to plot against you?" Suddenly asked one teacher.

"Of course not. I believe in the Academy's reputation. After all, both my father, mother, and grandparents had their name on the book."

"Then, are you afraid to compete with the other geniuses?" asked the same teacher with a sneer in his voice.

"The answer is still no," replied Wang Wei calmly. "If the Academy wishes, I am more than happy to fight in the trial, but I will not place my name on that book. All I ask for is to be able to see the Dao Tablets without doing so."

"Sacred Son," said Bai Han, preventing the previous teacher from speaking any further. "Excuse us for asking, but we need to have some kind of explanation for your sudden action before we can consider your proposition."

'Old fox, still trying to get some information from me while not giving me any promises,' secretly thought Wang Wei while sipping his tea.

"Well, as you know, after my encounter with Divine Punishment Thunder, me and Heavenly Dao do not have the best of relationships. So, I would prefer not to place my safety in its hands."

The teachers nodded after hearing this. Although they guessed that the real situation was probably more complex than stated, they could still understand the reason behind it. That is given that this Sacred Son was telling the truth.

As for Bai Han, he had a frown on his face as he secretly thought to himself.

'Wait...This Wang Wei has a terrible relationship with Heavenly Dao, and he see
