“What about it?” A curious soul asked.

　　The students’ curiosity troubled the dean. He didn’t know whether this was a good or bad thing for them to learn too early.

　　“Have you ever seen a sacred beast run out of the garden?” Li Qiye smiled: “Academy of Light has paradises everywhere, so why do the beasts continue to stay here despite a lack of captors and chains? Outside of the native beasts, the ones outside coming here slowly wouldn’t want to leave and consider this garden their home. Unless someone forcefully takes them out or they meet the right master, they will usually die here from old age.”

　　“This is completely against the nature of these ferocious beasts. The power of the light changed their instincts and dao heart. Now, they are lost and want nothing more than the light. To put it nicely, this is a baptism taking away their wild nature. To be more direct, the power of the light is subduing and brainwas.h.i.+ng them.” His eyes became profound while finis.h.i.+ng.

　　The students didn’t expect this. In their mind, sacred beasts were auspicious symbols. They were excited to come to the garden - the beautiful paradise of sacred beasts. Now, this no longer seemed like the case.

　　“Are sacred beasts not born normally?” One student couldn’t help but ask.

　　“They don’t exist anywhere else in the world, at least not the type we’re talking about. Of course, the ones born here are always br.i.m.m.i.n.g with light, calling them sacred isn’t unreasonable, just another type of species.” Li Qiye smiled: “But in terms of actual sacred beasts in other parts of the world, they wouldn’t be determined by their affinity, only by their bloodline and origin.” Li Qiye elaborated.

　　The young ones carefully absorbed this information.

　　“Okay, let’s go to other places for some more suitable sacred fruits.” Wenrui stood up and clapped, not wanting Li Qiye to divulge higher-level information.

　　If this conversation continued, it might change the students’ opinion of the system’s core principles and their own background.

　　This line of thought might be dangerous at the academy, going as far as damaging its foundation. He would be considered an eternal sinner for allowing this to happen.

　　He didn’t wish for the light of the system to be questioned by the future descendants. Alas, he also didn’t want Repentance City to always be down like this either.

　　As a hidden supreme master, he wished for an all-around positive outcome. Unfortunately, coming up with one remained difficult.

　　Because of his power level, he was exposed to certain secrets along with the origin of his city. However, he also considered himself a guardian of the system so his hands were tied.

　　The group regained their wits and pushed the new information down deep in their mind. As natives of the system, they didn’t want to question certain things because that would be disrespectful towards the progenitor and their ancestors. Nevertheless, a seed of doubt has been planted in their heart.

　　“Rumble!” As the group was leaving, a loud explosion resulted in a ma.s.sive earthquake. Even the great mountains were shaking continuously.

　　“What’s going on?” The young ones became startled.

　　“Boom!” A path was created by a trampling beast. The trees nearby got crushed to pieces and scattered like snowflakes.

　　Everyone saw a bull running like crazy with incredible speed. It didn’t bother looking ahead since its horn could clear all obstacles in a ferocious manner.

　　It wasn’t especially large, only around the size of a hill. It was quite muscular and vigorous. Its oily fur was a s.h.i.+ny black, seemingly polished many times over. People couldn’t help wanting to touch it once.

　　Its four hooves were as tough as steel, easily crus.h.i.+ng the rocks below. Its two horns were naturally incredible and indestructible - also a l.u.s.trous black, seemingly made from black metals.

　　“Rumble!” It continued to ravage everything in its path, resulting in earthquakes.

　　“An unusual species in the garden is here.” Li Qiye smiled after seeing the bull.

　　“It’s a grand black bull.” Du Wenrui was scared out of his mind and waved his hand to protect the group: “Watch out, it’s very violent.”

　　“Boom!” The bull crossed through them instantly, leaving a deep trail in its wake.
