Du You had figured it out: although the Dark Night rcenary Group ranked high among visible organizations, it was because their influence spanned a wide area and they always did the dirty and tiring work for other major powers.
That ranking was nothing more than a re formality, used primarily to deceive the common folk.
In the entire Dark Night rcenary Group, there were only two sixth-tier powerhouses. They could handle ordinary tasks, but their overall strength was just so-so, and they had a bad reputation.
Because of their past conduct, they had offended too many people and had acquired nurous enemies.
Previously, with the backing of others guaranteeing them two sixth-tier powerhouses, nobody dared to retaliate against their strength.
After all, the Dark Night rcenary Group was quite shrewd. They would never dare to offend those untouchable powers. Even the ones with sixth-tier powerhouses they avoided offending, but they had made quite a few enemies among the fifth and fourth-tier.
This ti, in their campaign against Du You, they sent two top-notch powerhouses all at once, originally planning to take advantage of the chaos to join forces with others to eliminate Du You, thereby seeking their own revenge.
However, what they didn’t expect was that Du You had reached the seventh tier, which completely disrupted their original plans.
The result was that Du You unceremoniously took care of these sixth-tier combatants. Without their top fighters, the Dark Night rcenary Group would face retribution from those they had previously offended.
Not only that, but those who supported them had long wished to get rid of them, and now they wouldn’t even need to make a move.
If they didn’t hurry to disband and escape, these people wouldn’t even be able to leave the Capital without eting a clean death. Even so, it was uncertain how many would manage to flee in the end.
Suddenly, the voice of Li ngyao echoed in Du You’s heart: "Du You, the academy is planning to create a statue for you, to be placed among the group of great figures, what do you think?"
"A statue? What do you an? Why do such a thing?" Du You was very surprised.
"Every academy mber who reaches the seventh tier gets a statue, not just you. Yu Shi and Yucha will also have theirs. Since you broke through while still a student, the academy can publicize it."
After so thought, Du You seed to understand the rationale: "Alright then, I agree, as long as it doesn’t disrupt my normal life."
"Don’t worry, I will communicate with them," said Li ngyao, who had been holding back for so ti.
Because Du You had been maligned, Xi Qianxue and Li ngyao, both associated with him, were sared by others taking advantage of this and had experienced significant damage to their reputations.
But now everything was different; Du You had directly broken through to the seventh tier, and all that had co before was now bygone.
In human society, heroes are always judged by their success or failure. As long as you succeed, everything you do is right; if you fail, even breathing can be wrong. This is no joke.
At the seventh tier, unless one commits a grave error like betraying Earth, outsiders won’t slander them. Even for those of poor character, the alliance might help cover it up.
It goes without saying that in terms of personal conduct, Du You could hardly be faulted.
All the previous events were proven to be utterly baseless, with not a shred of evidence. So even slurred Du You simply to seek fa or to ride on his coattails.
With Du You’s consent, the academy began its propaganda efforts, and Xi Qianxue and Li ngyao threw themselves fully into supporting it.
A positive image was established, and previous attacks from other students against Capital University now fell apart of their own accord. Today, everyone at Capital University, from professors to students, was walking tall and proud.
The seventh tier, the number of such individuals on Earth was unknown to many; the lower one’s position, the less they knew.
Moreover, Du You was unprecedented as a student who reached the seventh tier. As the academy that nurtured a seventh-tier student, its reputation was imasurably enhanced, securing the top spot for Capital University for many years to co.
Recruitnt issues that were once difficult to handle were now easily resolved. Next year’s recruitnt was expected to explode. As for other academies, all they could do now was smile bitterly in silence.
At this mont, a very interesting scene unfolded within other universities.
In the Student Managent Office, the director was rubbing his temples in frustration at the stack of application forms before him. These applications were all for transfer into Capital University; since when had they beco so popular?
Applications for transfer to other universities had always existed, typically from lower-tier to upper-tier institutions, such as when hidden talents from ordinary academies erged. Once they showcased their talent, they could apply to enter a higher-level university, and if they perford exceedingly well in the assessnt, the higher universities would not reject them.
But these universities were already at the top tier; when did they beco subordinates to Capital University?
However, such things were rely unspoken rules, never formally codified.
Well then, these matters couldn’t simply be ignored, so the administrations of various academies began desperately to counsel these students. But the more they did so, the more people applied.
Capital University was perfectly content, sitting by Diaoyutai, welcoming all these prospective students without discrimination.
Once they controlled the student source, other academies would never again be able to compete with Capital University.
It’s worth noting that Capital University’s own seventh-tier elite had also been cultivated from among these students. Even their upper-class mbers had been students of the academy, a background that spoke volus in itself.
The most vexing issue for the academies was their inability to involve Du You in the propaganda.
When Du You was at the sixth tier, he was already not soone the academies could command at will. Now at the seventh tier, it was virtually impossible for the academy’s personnel to secure his cooperation.
The real upper-class mbers valued the seventh tier even more, as it symbolized status.
Making a top expert perform for the masses like a monkey was a loss of face they could not afford.
Left with no choice, the academy sought an alternative thod: plastering posters everywhere. Of course, this too was with Du You’s consent. If Du You couldn’t make an appearance, Xi Qianxue and Li ngyao had no such restrictions.
When others used their relationship with Du You to attack them both, neither of the two girls denied it, nor did the academy. Now they brought it to the fore for propaganda—these two won stood as representatives for Du You.
After all, in the eyes of the outside world, both were Du You’s won, and that itself was like having two living billboards.
