"Everyone, welcome to join the Qi Sect. From now on, you will be members of our Qi Sect's outer court."

"This sect adheres to meritocracy and selects the best for use. In the dojo, there is a small test every month, a big test every year, and a test every four years. Anyone who has achieved success in learning and art can quickly win the promotion of the master." Chance."

"If you really don't have talent and can't grow up, it doesn't matter. As long as you pledge your allegiance to the sect, you still have the opportunity to become a deacon**, an apprentice, etc..."

In mid-September, Xianshan Square.

Li Wan and the others are also calling for this official visit to the outer courtyard, a total of 330 five people, to give instructions and encouragement.

The deacon of Dengxianyuan ** on the stage, after making a declaration, said again: "This time, Elder Mo Yuan will take you back to the mountain gate, enter the Taoist temple to learn and teach skills, please come aboard with me..."

Under the guidance of other deacons, everyone followed suit.

"Going back to the sect now, there are registrations, distribution of dojos, spiritual peaks, qualification checks and other things that need to be arranged. I am sorry for your troubles, fellow daoists."

The daily affairs of the Zongmen require the cooperation of all the halls under the jurisdiction of the Sixth Court. Li Wan asked briefly and entrusted this matter to everyone.

"These people are the first batch of external disciples recruited by our Qi Sect. They are of great significance. Of course, there is no possibility of mistakes. Please rest assured, the Sect Master and all the elders."

The person in charge of this matter is a Nascent Soul master named Mo Yuan in the sect. He is actually a monk who is also a cultivator of Dharma and Taoism. Develop the family, not live a happy life.

Soon after, Mo Yuan and the other elders sat in the flying boat, preparing to complete the simple training and personnel arrangement for the disciples on the boat, and assign them to various dojos based on their interests and talents.

At the end of September, Li Wan, Miaobao Sanren and others returned to the sect.

Xiao Qingning was on Qinglong Peak, acting as suzerain.

These days, Xiao Qingning also learned about Li Wan's and others' struggle with the Lingbao Sect for supremacy, and according to Li Wan's intentions, he formulated a few rules for reference.

At this time, Li Wan had already compiled more parts of his "Great Qi Zhenjing", and rearranged them according to the four major characteristics of attack, defense, support, and strange objects. Divided into knives, swords, flags, banners, furnaces, tripods, bottles, jars, seals, fans... each department.

In order to get rid of the disadvantages of the monopoly of clans like the Lingbao Sect, he did not pass these secrets to the various sects of the masters individually, but gathered them together as the sect's public wealth.

Li Wan once discussed the matter with Xiao Qingning, and what Xiao Qingning said left a deep impression on him.

Xiao Qingning said at the time: "Everyone has their own aspirations. Even if their long-cherished wishes and interests were the same at that time, it is inevitable that future generations will disobey and deviate from the original path. Especially Qizong was evolved from the sects of the masters in Tiannan, and it will inevitably be stamped with their own brands in the future. , to form a powerful family, the husband must have a long-term vision, and from the beginning of the generation, he must focus on eliminating differences."

Li Wan also deeply thinks that, although now, it is unavoidable to divide the power of the Six Courts to them for why they rewarded the six great masters for participating in the founding of the sect, but in the future, the power will be gradually collected until the entire Qi sect is integrated.

This kind of situation is a bit like when Xiao Huan started the Tiangong workshop publicly, and all the fellow Taoists who started the business together were entrusted with the elders of the workshop.

At the beginning, it was natural to cooperate sincerely and help each other in the same boat, but after development, it is inevitable that the tail will be too big to lose, and they will fight for power and profit.

Li Wan is now in charge of the suzerain position and the Tiannan master evaluation meeting, and has the right to compile and distribute the "Great Qi Zhenjing". At the beginning, someone suggested to him that he should each teach some truths to the six sects, and the suzerain's direct line would keep it. The most, but Li Wan insisted on the sharing of knowledge, and taught them separately with their respective talents and interests.

This was a majestic conspiracy, and the six factions were unable to stop it, so that gradually a complete unanimity was achieved within the sect.

This was the beginning of kneading the entire sect together. This time, Li Wan was more determined to eliminate the differences between the various factions and further achieve integration, so he also asked Xiao Qingning if he had any good strategies.

Xiao Qingning said: "I'm already working on this matter. In order to avoid backlash from various factions, it's better to do it subtly. After a few decades, these new masters will grow up, and then in the name of meritorious missions and enriching the sect's collection. , to induce them to pay the secret law and take it into common use, and in turn lead the competition to the power position within the sect."

Xiao Qingning's opinion is that it is better for everyone to mix together and divide up than to compete for the resources and collect these resources, each with its own broom.

Only in this way will it be beneficial to realize the scheduling and allocation of resources and form a beneficial situation.

Since the struggle for power and profit is inevitable, we should simply direct the struggle to a less harmful place, so as not to affect the development plan of the entire sect.

Li Wan pondered for a while, and decided to follow what Xiao Qingning said, and asked again: "Let's not mention these for now, what I said last time, the appointment with Fang Bo, what do you think?"

Xiao Qingning said: "This matter is indeed feasible, and we can formally inform the Lingbao Sect, spread it to the world, and set up a special Treasure Fighting Conference, for example, called Xianshan Grandfather."

Li Wan asked, "What's the reason?"

Xiao Qingning smiled sweetly, revealing a sense of wisdom and self-confidence that cannot be ignored: "We have nothing in the creation of the Qi Sect. In fact, no matter whether we succeed or fail, we can get the glory of the Holy Land of Qi Dao of the Lingbao Sect. You will suffer, and since my husband is confident, he won’t lose to them in the field of cultivation, and he can take the opportunity to make a name for himself as Qizong, use their reputation to build momentum for himself, and even erode Zhongzhou Qidao in reverse.”

"For this matter, we can refer to the Treasure Fighting Conference among the refiners. However, we need to give more consideration to the specific rules in order to create an atmosphere that is beneficial to us."

"For example, the method and scope of the competition can refer to the treasure fighting between the refiners, but the participants are limited to the entry-level ** of the same session;"

"For another example, if the two parties collect money in different places, the places obtained must be distributed according to the results of the competition at the current meeting;"

"In order to disperse the advantages of the top geniuses of the Lingbao Sect, we can distinguish between different grades, and set up competitions for each level..."

Xiao Qingning thought deeply about how to make profits for the sect through this incident.

The essence of it is that it is recommended to distribute according to the results of the competition when collecting money in different places.

This will allow the Lingbao Sect to come to Tiannan to snatch talents, instead of conducting surprise attacks, they will have to openly sign up and recruit openly.

The right to recruit cannot be determined arbitrarily, but must be determined by the General Assembly.

Of course, those wealthy families wanted to collude with the Lingbao Sect in private, and the Qi Sect had nothing to do with them, the main thing was to protect the middle and small aristocratic families and casual cultivators from leaving.

In this Xianshan conference, Qizong won the support of more monks with practical methods, which is very beneficial. This will make Lingbaozong realize that the name of Qidao Holy Land may not be as useful as a landlord. Digging the foundation of Tiannan Qi Dao is not necessarily an easy task.

Of course, they can also start with the rich and powerful families, but most of the rich and powerful families are difficult to serve, and they also need more talents from poor families in order to accumulate talents and famous teachers.

Xiao Qingning said with a smile: "I think if we strike while the iron is hot, the Lingbao Sect will agree. After all, they brought this up on their own initiative. In their view, we are still very weak."

Li Wan pondered for a while, then nodded: "Okay, I will send a letter to Lingbaozong as you said."

Soon, Qizong sent a letter to Lingbaozong to discuss this matter.

Sure enough, as Xiao Qingning expected, the senior officials of Lingbao Sect were also overjoyed when Qi Sect agreed to Fang Bo's proposal.

The Lingbao Sect is not without wisdom, but considering that the matter of Qi Dao, it must be attributed to Qi Dao in the end. It is fair to use their respective skills to fight for treasures, and to determine the affiliation of talents according to their respective levels. just.

The Lingbao Sect has not yet fallen to the point where they dare not even agree to a fair contest, and they are about to use this method to force the Qi Sect to the point of no return, and they will not be able to stop the brain drain in the future.

As for Qi Sect's conversely recruiting disciples in Zhongzhou and invading their foundation, it's ridiculous to think about it.

How could Qizong be able to compare with Lingbaozong?Isn't this unfounded?

Of course, members of the Lingbao Sect would never allow the Qi Sect to be corrupted. When it comes to the specific rules of the competition, they will still fight with reason and haggle over every detail.

Of course, they can also see that some conditions are not good for them. For example, they should strongly oppose the division of talents into different grades.

They only agreed, and based on the qualifications of the same class, at most they allowed the juniors to challenge the seniors.

It is absurd to distinguish participation qualifications based on the level of elites, and it does not reflect the growth of newly promoted elites.

Considering that the growth of a generation of masters often takes decades, and the Lingbao Sect does not often go to Tiannan to recruit talents, such competitions are held every 12 years and will last until 60 years later.

That is to say, every time this kind of Treasure Fighting Conference can be extended to the previous five sessions, each session will select at least two people to participate together with the previous sessions.

The monks who come to apply will no longer be voluntary. Instead, they will be recruited, evaluated, and ranked in potential rankings first, and then the winner of the Treasure Tournament will forcibly recruit according to the number of games won and their respective ratios!

For example, if there is a meeting where two parties fight ten games and there is an open result, then the side that wins six games will first select six players, the other party will select four players, and the winning party will select six players. analogy.

In this way, the friar who came to vote could not help himself to choose.

However, according to the logic, the sect that wins the competition is more willing to select top-ranked talents, and talents are also willing to be selected by them.

Such an arrangement not only has an explanation for the local master, but also has another explanation for the monks who came to report, and it also takes into account the fairness of the competition and the convenience of dividing up, which can be accepted by both parties.

When the reply from the Lingbao Sect was sent to the Qi Sect, Li Wan and Xiao Qingning read it and laughed in relief. (To be continued.)
