X-Dragon Era-Chapter 607 - s The So-Called Honor_5
However, although it seems like a powerful position, in reality, the three rewards are all honorary. After all... anyone who could become an Honorary Elder is certainly no ordinary person; who has the leisure to meddle in Mountain Sea Academy's affairs! On the contrary... it's Mountain Sea Academy that benefits! No matter what, an Honorary Elder is still an elder. Before taking action against Mountain Sea, one must consider whether they can provoke these so-called Honorary Elders. If they can't, it's better to withdraw...
One could say that Mountain Sea Academy provides status, position, and honor, all of which cost nothing. To put it simply, it's as if they've given nothing at all, just moving their lips, the height of craftiness.
In fact, regarding money and benefits, whether it's Xin Yun or Po Kong, including Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, and Ming Xuan, they never gave it much thought. Who would care about such things? How much could Mountain Sea Academy even offer? In contrast, these seemingly worthless status, position, and honors are actually more welcome by everyone.
Xin Yun felt the same way, but even though he said as much, he felt uncomfortable inside. It didn't matter per se, but this made him feel like he was being used and manipulated by others, and this feeling greatly annoyed Xin Yun.
With his lips tightly pressed, Xin Yun glanced at the others, and sure enough... no one showed any displeasure on their faces. For them, the competition was for their own sake. As for what the academy did or did not give, it was never a concern. If they really wanted something, it would certainly be that crystal fruit!
"Clap, clap..." With a light clap of his hands, Xin Yun drew everyone's attention. Then... Xin Yun quietly shared his thoughts with the team.
Upon hearing Xin Yun's words, at first, the others were somewhat indifferent. But as Xin Yun analyzed the situation, anger began to appear on everyone's faces, growing increasingly intense.
No one cared about the little benefits given by the academy. Not to exaggerate, but even if they gave away all the benefits of the entire academy, or even the whole Mountain Sea City, no one here would bat an eyelash. Not to mention Po Kong, Xin Yun alone controlled thirty-six cities like Mountain Sea, and could easily multiply that number several times over if he wished!

However, it's not about caring or not, but rather the manner of it. For example, we might give ten yuan to a beggar on the street without any reluctance, but it's different if we were tricked out of ten yuan and then looked down upon and cursed in secret. Especially for the wealthy, they wouldn't mind spending millions; they could demolish cars bought with millions of yuan if they pleased. True... they wouldn't care. But if they were deceived, they couldn't stand losing even one hundred yuan.
There's nothing wrong with Mountain Sea Academy's approach, but on closer examination, it amounts to nothing more than taking something for nothing, binding everyone to the academy without giving anything in return. Even if we leave, we're still being used by them. Think about it... whether it's Xin Yun, Po Kong, Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, including Ming Xuan, who would want to be foolishly used by others like this? It's a blatant deception, a complete lack of respect.
Everyone here is intelligent. With just a hint from Xin Yun, they all became angry. The reason they hadn't thought of it before was mainly because they were engrossed in their cultivation and didn't bother with such trifles. And... as experts, they always need to be more open-minded, not preoccupied with these minor concerns.
Logically, even Xin Yun wouldn't have thought of it. It's not a question of intelligence; he simply didn't have the time to think about this. But don't forget, Xin Yun is a reborn individual. In his previous life, the outside world's view of Mountain Sea Academy's behavior was just as described, and many felt it was unjust for Po Kong and Yi Luo Xiang, even doubting their emotional intelligence.
In the past, Xin Yun just listened and laughed it off. But now, it's different— the issue involves him, and significantly so. After all... he is the captain of the Fantasy Dream Team. With honor, he would undoubtedly gain much, but if there was any disgrace, he would have to bear it all alone.
With just a little pondering, everyone understood. If they accepted everything as the dean had said, the situation would become complicated. Before long, they would surely be ridiculed by the world, and even if they won the championship, they might not escape being labeled as strong but simple-minded, with low emotional and intellectual quotients.
