The New Huang Long Academy? - 150

After the expansion finished and the earth was settled in, Zhou Fan appeared next to the beasts.

"What do you all think?" He asked them.

The beasts didn't respond and instead kept looking around. Clearly, they were stunned by the earth's changes.

After a couple moments, the beasts came back to their senses.

"It is very good!" They said in unison.

Zhou Fan nodded his head and started speaking. "You all can divide the earth up however you want. It will be a while before you all gain the strength to freely travel around the solar system without taking days, but you will reach that point eventually."

"Do you want to come back to the Huang Long academy?" Xiaolong suddenly asked. "It has been weird without you there."

"I'm not sure. I just built a new pagoda and it would seem like a waste to not use it." Zhou Fan responded.

"If you ever decide to, there will always be a place for you there." Xiaolong said.

Zhou Fan nodded, appreciating his words. "I don't need to leave immediately. I can help you settle down first."

Although he knew he wouldn't be able to stay forever, Zhou Fan didn't want to leave just yet.

"That sounds good." Xiaolong said, to the agreement of the other beasts.

After that, Xiaolong, Zhuque, Bainu, and Xuanwu, traveled around the new earth with Zhou Fan in order to look for a good place to build another huang long academy. They had decided to restart the building process instead of using the yellow dragon and the old buildings.

Before long, Zhou Fan and the beasts found a huge mountain range. Since Zhou Fan hadn't looked at the Zhou World after it expanded, these were the biggest mountains he had ever seen.

Yet, the best part was the flat land in the middle. The flat plains were thousands of miles long and wide, and surrounded by hundreds of mountains thousands of miles high.

While the beasts were considering what materials to use, Zhou Fan disappeared. In the core area of the new earth, Zhou Fan grabbed some materials.

While they were discussing, Zhou Fan appeared back next to them with a mountain of ores behind him.

"How do these seem?" He asked rhetorically.

The beasts turned around, only to be surprised by the materials.

"Where did you get these?" Zhuque asked.

"The center of the earth. These materials are actually the strongest I've ever seen." Zhou Fan said.

If the beasts were strong enough, they would be able to tell that the materials were actually at the lesser dao creation realm! Zhou Fan was glad that materials at that level started to naturally exist. That meant that the planets were getting stronger.

After all, even the basic dirt that covered the surface of the planets had reached the nascent soul realm.

Only someone at the core formation realm would be able to dig it. However, that was also a problem that Zhou Fan had.

The worlds were becoming too strong for mortals to live on. Nowadays, mortals couldn't even cut down trees or pull out grass. They were basically fed by cultivators.

Although Zhou Fan wanted more advanced worlds, he didn't think that those without the talent to cultivate should just die.

Unfortunately, he wasn't quite sure what to do with mortals. He had thought of making a planet for them, but mortals were born everywhere. Although the average talent had increased and the talent of offspring was likely to be higher based on one's cultivation realm, 10% of people across the Zhou solar system and the earth were born without the talent to cultivate.

Eventually, even those with talent to cultivate wouldn't be able to survive.

It seemed necessary to create a place for those with less talent, and a place for those with talent.

Sadly, there were too many variables that Zhou Fan couldn't control with his current strength. He had already thought of a solution, but he would need much more strength. At the very least, he would need power on a universal level.

Zhou Fan shook his head to get himself out of the distant thoughts. Power on a universal level was still much too far for him. Even thinking about it was useless since he couldn't truly comprehend it.

"How do you all want to build the academy? This time, the structure is up to you all." Zhou Fan said.

After pondering for a moment, Xiaolong spoke. "I think it would be best to build it in the shape of a dragon once again."

"Of course you do." Zhuque said. "You're a dragon. I think we should build it in the shape of a phoenix if we are building it in the shape of a living thing."

"Let's step away from designing it like one of you all." Zhou Fan said. "Instead, think of a good place for every type of living being."

Since the beast's experience in creating things was very limited, Zhou Fan tried to guide them. Who else was a better fit?

"I think we should make a city rather than a single building." Bainu said, joining the conversation. "It would be like the entire city would function as the academy. I saw some sects do it back in the days, and we're basically a sect."

Zhou Fan nodded at his words. That was the best idea so far.

"I say we make the entire planet the Huang long "sect", while this place just serves as an academy." Xuanwu suggested.

Hearing his words, the beasts thought about it.

"That does seem reasonable. The other top sects are getting an entire planet, shouldn't we also get one?" Xiaolong said.

"Earth is different from those places." Zhou Fan said. "Don't be a follower, you guys are the strongest life from earth besides me."

Zhou Fan intended to remind them that they were the leaders of the entire earth solar system. There was no need for them to rule over an entire planet.

After some more talking, the beasts decided that Bainu's idea was the best. They would build an entire city between the mountains
