Chapter 89 The First Teacher

After absorbing the knowledge system a new golden finger interface, with a systematic classification of knowledge, Wang Daoyi began purposeful learning based on his weak points, which immediately improved his learning progress.

However, amidst his studies, he didn't forget his promise to Abattouy, to find him a job.

After explaining this matter to his friends, a certain purple girl looked at him wordlessly and said, "You've established an educational society, and he is an outstanding scholar of the Spantamad Academy. Why not let him join the educational society?"

Wang Daoyi suddenly realized his oversight.

So, Abattouy the scholar became the first professional teacher of the educational society, responsible for enlightening children before they entered the academy.

Although it was unknown how his methods differed from those of Liyue's enlightenment.

But Wang Daoyi observed his results and indeed, many children entered the normal process of reading and writing.

"The Spantamad Academy has absorbed the entire opening method of Teyvat. Although it is not my research field, I have also read some corresponding papers. The method I use is the enlightenment method of your Liyue classics, allowing children to read and write some of Liyue's story classics to initiate their enlightenment and value construction."

So said the great educator, Abattouy.

Wang Daoyi was very satisfied with Abattouy's results, as was the Adventurer's Guild and the Tianquan. However, there was one place that was not satisfied, and that was the Embassy of the Spantamad Academy in Liyue.

While Professor Abattouy was achieving success with the orphans, the reputation of this scholar of the forbidden realm became more widely known with the publicity of the Adventurer's Association and the Qixing for the orphan education plan.

Originally, the people of the Spantamad Academy Embassy were happy to hear that a scholar of the forbidden realm was involved in the education plan. It was a positive event to have a scholar's presence in such a matter.

But upon learning more about the scholar, they found out that this scholar of the Spantamad Academy was actually a researcher in a taboo field, and after contacting the Spantamad Academy to verify, there was no report of this scholar giving up research on mechanical life in the void.

In other words, this scholar who enlightened the orphans of Liyue was half a fugitive from the Spantamad Academy.

This made the people at the Spantamad Academy Embassy very dissatisfied.

They immediately lodged a protest with the Qixing, hoping to hand over Abattouy to the embassy. In return, the embassy would dispatch more scholars to participate in the education plan, without affecting its progress.

Regarding the proposal from the Academy of Teaching, Ningguang wanted to agree. She didn't know Abattouy and didn't know that Abattouy was arranged by Wang Daoyi.

Moreover, the Embassy of the Spantamad Academy did present evidence proving that Abattouy was a scholar researching in a forbidden area, a dangerous presence, and they also made a promise to dispatch more scholars to participate in the education plan.

However, luckily, there were people in the Qixing who knew the inside story. Simply said, "The education plan is not solely promoted by the Qixing. If the Spantamad Academy wants to take away the teacher responsible for the education plan, they need to obtain the consent of another sponsor, the Adventurer's Association, and also need the approval of the initiator, Mr. Wang Daoyi."

Although it was unclear why even the Qixing controlling Liyue couldn't make decisions on such small matters, the embassy envoys didn't dwell on it much. Perhaps this was a unique processing procedure of Liyue.

So, a scholar wearing a yellow badge appeared in front of Wang Daoyi.

"So, do you want to take Abattouy back to the Spantamad Academy?" 

Wang Daoyi looked at the scholar in front of him, expressionless.

"Yes, Abattouy scholar is researching in a forbidden area, and his research may bring about unfavorable circumstances. So the decision of the Spantamad Academy is to take Abattouy back to the Spantamad Academy for supervision until Abattouy gives up research on mechanical life."

This scholar from the Spantamad Academy emphasized the danger of Abattouy's faction, hoping to persuade Wang Daoyi to make a decision to give up Abattouy. Then he offered the promise: "As long as you agree, the Spantamad Academy will dispatch a group of professional early childhood education scholars to help you implement the education plan."

Wang Daoyi shook his head. He was willing to keep Abattouy in the educational society. On one hand, he coveted Abattouy's mechanical knowledge, and on the other hand, Abattouy was now in opposition to the Spantamad Academy.

As for the so-called professional early childhood education scholars the Spantamad Academy mentioned, Wang Daoyi was rather uneasy. These scholars even dared to imprison the current Lesser Lord Kusanali. Although these low-level scholars might not know about imprisoning the LEsser Lord Kusanali, who knows what ideas these scholars would instill in the children.

Abattouy was smart to use Liyue's enlightenment method to teach children, which pleased Wang Daoyi greatly.

"No, Mr. Scholar, Abattouy scholar has already left the jurisdiction of the Spantamad Academy. The ban of the Spantamad Academy should not apply outside of Sumeru. 

Wang Daoyi smiled as he spoke, but the scholar sensed a hint of indifference.

The scholar became anxious and quickly said, "But he is a Sumeru person, and we have the right to take him back to Sumeru! Moreover, this matter has also been agreed upon by the Qixing!"

In fact, the Qixing did not directly agree. They asked them to consult the Adventurer's Guild and Wang Daoyi's opinion first. They went to the Adventurer's Guild first, and after making many promises, the Adventurer's Guild had agreed not to oppose them taking Abattouy away. Now, the only hurdle was Wang Daoyi.

Wang Daoyi gave a sarcastic smile. Before this scholar came, Sisi had already informed him of the course of events. The Qixing didn't directly agree from the start.

"Mr. Scholar, I'm sorry to tell you that just a few days ago, Abattouy scholar had already sworn allegiance to the Emperor and entered the household register of Liyue to become a teacher teaching orphans. So although he is originally from Sumeru, he is now a person of Liyue. The Spantamad Academy has no right to take away a person of Liyue."

"The Qixing also have no right to abandon a person who is loyal to the Emperor. If you want to take away Abattouy, you can only do so with the Emperor's consent."

The scholar was stunned. He had not expected Abattouy to swear allegiance to the Emperor. Although the Emperor himself would never respond to such an oath, Abattouy's position had indeed changed.

And to make the Emperor decree to abandon Abattouy, huh, did the people of the Spantamad Academy have the qualifications to approach the Emperor?

Unless the Lesser Lord Kusanali came, otherwise, the Emperor wouldn't care about these embassy envoys.

After giving Wang Daoyi a deep look, the scholar from the Spantamad Academy didn't say anything and left the teahouse.

He knew that everything depended on whether Wang Daoyi wanted to give up Abattouy. Before Wang Daoyi changed his mind, there was no use in saying anything.

After the scholar from the Spantamad Academy left, Abattouy came to Wang Daoyi's side from the backyard of the teahouse.

"Thank you so much, boss, you actually refused the Spantamad Academy for me!"

"Haha, just put more effort into educating the children!"

Wang Daoyi didn't say much, just urged Abattouy to be more attentive to the children.
