Chapter 527: Chapter 144: Desire to Sing_1
A month is neither long nor short.
Enough for many important events to happen.
The relationship between Ravensmouth College and Mesopotamia University has soured.
This was expected by some people.
But they didn’t expect the progress to be so swift.
With just one move of selective school closure from Mesopotamia University, allowing people to leave but not enter, Ravensmouth College was caught off guard.
Dean Frist Diomand barraged the entrance for seven consecutive days, lambasting the principal of Mesopotamia University for their shameful behavior.
Shouting things like “If you dare to steal my people, you dare to open your doors!”.
However, the principal of Mesopotamia University remained remarkably composed, resolutely implemented the selective school closure strategy, and did not show up.
A few days later, those who were observing the development found out that Mesopotamia University had indeed shut down its school, it wasn’t just a bluff.
People kept coming out from the original campus and the main world, but no one could get in.
Some individuals and forces wanting to find out what happened inside Mesopotamia University tried their best to make contact with those wizards who had come out, resorting to all sorts of methods, either by enticement or coercion.
As a result, the information they received was divergent, but all pointed to one fact, that nothing unusual had happened inside Mesopotamia University, everything was normal.
The reason for the selective school closure was purely due to the influence of the four corruption cases and Dean Frist threatening to expose more cases of corruption.
It was only then that the various organizations and individuals in the Mitchell District realized how corrupt Mesopotamia University, an old top-tiered institution established alongside the Great Sage Mitchell’s Tower, had become.
With the fear of uncovering the corruption, they chose to close the school and pretend as if the corruption didn’t exist.
“No wonder it has been declining over the years.”
Many people sighed with such sentiment.
Mesopotamia University was once the leading power in the Mitchell District, holding the first place for nearly a thousand years, only second to the Great Sage Mitchell’s Tower.
In recent three hundred years, with lack of successors, the rank has been slipping and had fallen to the fifth place.
The once junior Ravensmouth Biological and Medical College, on the other hand, has been thriving, jumping from fifth to first place.
This contrast is stark.
No wonder the biggest reaction when everyone found out that the Great Sage Revo was collecting resources to promote the Great Sage Seuss to Level Eight Great Sages, and the first to take action to express their attitude, turned out to be Mesopotamia University, even more proactive than the Tower of the Great Sage Mitchell.
They couldn’t bear the shame anymore.
After his unsuccessful blockade, Dean Frist boldly announced the termination of a dozen cooperation projects with Mesopotamia University.
He claimed that if Mesopotamia University continues to remain silent and does not respond to the reasonable demands of Ravensmouth College by handing over some of the culprits, they would continue to sever cooperation projects in the future.
This was not just lip service.
A month later, looking back, more than half of the cooperation projects between Ravensmouth College and Mesopotamia University were cancelled.
The resolute and decisive attitude was clear to all.
However, if anyone understood the details of these cancelled projects, they would find that all of them were projects where corruption was more rampant on the side of Mesopotamia University.
Unfortunately, the relevant people either had been silenced forever, or had signed confidentiality agreements made by Level 9 Great Sage True Spirit Wizards.
Three noteworthy events also occurred within Ravensmouth College.
Firstly, Witch Serene suddenly entered the Metamorphosis Period, and the duration would be very short, she could be promoted to a sage after two months.
Generally speaking, the Metamorphosis Period lasts for half a year to two years.
An experienced sage gave a judgment after hearing that Witch Serene’s Metamorphosis Period was so brief.
“She has been waiting earnestly for Palo for so many years, always sincere, without pretending, her humanity is very well preserved, it is not strange that her Metamorphosis Period is shorter.”
After this judgment came out, it sparked a lot of discussion.
The focus of the wizards was no longer on the brief Metamorphosis Period, but on the story between Witch Serene and Sage Palo.
Knowing the details, some enthusiasts wrote a long post about the past events between Witch Serene and Sage Palo and posted it anonymously on the Ravensmouth forum.
After reading this post, many male wizards had only one thought.
That is, it’s better for Sage Palo, the hard straight man, to stay dead outside.
Leave the beautiful and tough Witch Serene for us to protect!
“If you dare to do such a thing again, I’ll tear your mouth apart!”
After discovering this post, Witch Serene immediately knew the true identity of the anonymous person. She “hit up” the Clarke’s house right away and subdued Renee after a bout of frolicking.
Pressing her down in the armchair, aggressively patting her raised rear, causing a wave of motion, giving a threat.
“Hehe…”
Renee’s face was rosy, panting heavily, “I’d dare to do it next time.”
Witch Serene, hearing this, let go of her press on Renee Clarke, faintly saying, “Even if you want to expose, don’t mention the fact that I lost myself just for a treatment potion worth only six standard first-level Magic Stones, and a timely help. So embarrassing!”
Renee immediately protested when she heard this, sat up, saying indignantly, “The one who lost face was not you, but that bastard Palo. He kept stringing you along, never giving a clear indication, he doesn’t even compare to my Assad.”
Reminded of Assad Kenneth, Witch Renee’s resentment towards Sage Palo deepened, she cursed, “That fool Assad, I don’t know what love potion he drank from that guy Palo, always refusing to return to the main world, even if he does not want to join the Clarke Family, he can develop on his own.”
