Hong Meng secretly took a peek, then immediately closed it again, fortunately it wasn’t meant for him, one would be infuriated after reading it. Then he produced a hand seal, made a spell, a dozen of invitation to a duel transformed in dashes of bright light and flew out.
The date for the duel was set on the next day, as the divine race, they would definitely be able to make it. Even if these 12 people joined forces, with Chef’s capabilities, he wouldn’t lose. He wasn’t being boastful, but it wouldn’t even be a problem for him to crush them. Even if there really happened to be any accidents, there was still Shen Ying. So Lonemoon wasn’t worried at all.
Then the next day, not one person came…
Lonemoon stared at the empty field, slightly not knowing how to react. Could it be that it was too far and they couldn’t make it in time? It’s alright, let’s wait another day.
On the third day, still no one came…
Was there no basic abilities such as cutting through the void amongst the divine race?
The fourth day, they still weren’t here…
Could it be that the invitation to the duel was delayed, something went wrong with Hong Meng’s spell?
The 10th day, they just wouldn’t come…
Had they been scared out of their wits by his invitation to the duel?
The 15th day, they still weren’t here…
Lonemoon: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
Hong Meng: “…”
Fatty: “…”
The field that could hold tens of thousands of people was empty, a cold wind that was penetratingly icy blew past.
“Damn, they dared to stand me up!!!” Lonemoon’s face went black as he pulled out his sword. “Hong Meng tell me the location of those people.” I’ll go destroy them.
“Father Niu…” Shen Ying who was nibbling on a fruit at the side suddenly spoke up.
“What?”
“Those people are the first batch of natives of this plane right?”
“What about that?” Could he not beat them up?
“No, this world did not even have rules in place, nothing at all, that should include a written language right?”
Huh?
“You used the language of the other plane to write that invitation to a duel, would they be able to understand it?”
Lonemoon: “…”
Yi Qing: “…”
Hong Meng: “…”
Fatty: “…”
Four swooshes, four top tier powerhouses were given a stab each, a spot known as intelligence immediately began to hurt.
Though they didn’t want to admit it, but in this moment, they were all idiots!

Base of the 12 divine races.
Half a month ago, something strange happened to each of the divine races, divine artifacts fell from the sky to before the head of every race. The divine artifact was square and crimson red, faintly radiating a golden light. It was as if it had a mind of its own, as long as any other member of the race approached it, it would fly away, then voluntarily fall into the head’s hands.
The head of the races observed it for ten days but still did not know what it was. Later on, they accidentally opened it and saw that there was a white scroll covered in tiny gold marks on it. They looked extremely weird and would even float out of the divine artifact one by one, and remain in the air, shining brightly for a long time. Like fireflies, they emitted light in the night all the way until morning when they disappeared.
Every race was surprised, indeed, an item that fell from the sky was simply different. Such a divine item definitely has its extraordinary use. Hence after some inquiry, they realized that all 12 races had received one of the exact same items each. As the 12 divine races that did not get along well with each other, having small fights once every three days and big battles once every five days, fighting whether there was a reason or not, they thought that they certainly had to vie for such a good thing.
Hence, without any questions or hesitation, a battle began between the 12 divine races again.
Chef who was sent by Father Niu, who’d changed his strategy after finally coming to his senses- to personally visit and challenge them: “…”
Um, is it better if he charged in and beat them up now? Or wait for them to finish their fight before charging in and beating them up?
In the end, Chef looked at the time of the day and calculated when dinner was going to be and decided not to wait. Hence, he went forth directly and gave the leaders of those 12 divine races a good beating each and while at it, even settled several beasts who knew no fear and voluntarily dashed forward, bringing them back to be grilled.
Then he looked towards the members of the divine races who laid all over the floor, shivering in fear and pulled out a stack of paper, shoving one piece each to every one of them. While doing so, he said with a solemn face, “Invincible Civil and Military Academy, Purple Night Palace Branch, gain some understanding about it?”
All the gods: “…”
After he finished giving out that thick stack of papers, he then turned back and tied up the 12 leaders as if he was wrapping rice dumplings and said, emphasizing each word, “The few of you must learn!” With that said, he flew away with a chain of people in tow.
The originally noisy venue fell into an odd silence…
Only after a good while later, did the people of the various races dared to stand up. Looking down at the item that had been shoved into their hands, they instantly heard a voice by their ear. It was evident that a certain person had learned his lesson from the previous time, this poster could also transmit voices on top being read.
A low and deep voice inside it shouted loudly.
“Invincible Civil and Military Academy, Purple Night Palace Branch is a multi-aspect, modern all-rounded civil and military academy that strives to nurture high end talents of the divine race and create a perfect new era. The academy now has five mentors. Four of them graduated from the Manager Academy in another plane and one has done his advance studies in this academy. Everyone has an almost perfect teaching experience, perfect personal capabilities and teaching methods that are close to perfect…
That voice continued on and on, carrying a drive that could not be ignored, while it left everyone dumbfounded, it also stirred an urge out of nowhere in their hearts, especially the last paragraph.
“Want to become a stronger divine race? Want to become the elite amongst the divine race? Want to become the most outstanding, the strongest divine race? Want to become as good as the person who’d beat up your leaders? Come to Invincible Civil and Military Academy, Purple Night Palace Branch! Invincible Civil and Military Academy, Purple Night Palace Branch is your wisest choice, as long you train with us, you will become the strongest, what are you waiting for! Quickly pick up the phone beside… ah pui, come directly to Invincible Civil and Military Academy, Purple Night Palace Branch. Address: Right above the Purple Night Mountain, Purple Night Palace outside the Nine-Layered Palace! Limited spots, first comers learn first!”
The gods stared at each other, the passionate marketing message ringing in their ears, someone spoke up softly after a long while.
“Is… this for real?”
“The one that lives in Purple Night Palace, isn’t he the old man who often comes to the battlefield to steal bodies, then was beaten by the leaders together?”
“But that person earlier was really formidable!”
“Our leader isn’t here anymore, why not we go take a look?”
Hence, Invincible Civil and Military Academy, Purple Night Palace Branch finally successfully recruited its first batch of students.
——————
The marketing effect of the voice poster that Lonemoon made Chef shove to them was not too bad. After Yi Qing brought the 12 heads of the races backs, a huge batch of divine races came continuously across a few days.
At a rough estimate, there are several tens of thousands of people, probably because when Chef was beating people up, he happened to do it on the battlefield. There were lots of people there and maximized the effect of the poster. These people did not even retreat back to their bases and had came directly to Purple Night Palace.
