The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings - Chapter 513

Chapter 513: Chapter 461: Selection Scheme, Quota Allocation

Of course, even if they resent it, since they can’t stop it, they definitely won’t ignore it. Instead, they actively participate by sending many disciples to the Taoist Academy.

When these powers asked if their disciples could enter the Taoist Academy, Deng Zhong understood: It’s an open scheme. I can’t stop you from spreading your teachings, but I can allow my disciples to claim these spots and minimize your influence.

“As long as these people have come to the selection, there is no need to stop them.” Pei Xuanjing understood what they were thinking and signaled not to bother with them.

Pei Xuanjing had prepared for this. Even with the transmissibility of the Martial Classics, allowing more people to become martial artists, most martial artists without master guidance and environmental edification were generally not as powerful as those from major forces. This was an inevitable fact, and it was what Pei Xuanjing aimed to eliminate.

Therefore, he had already informed Deng Zhong that they needed to handle the selection of martial artists from major forces differently from those of ordinary origin, and needed to make flexible adjustments.

Pei Xuanjing certainly wouldn’t completely reject these martial artists from major forces either. Since he decided to teach all to the people, he naturally wouldn’t care about their background, nor would he be prejudiced.

However, at this point, ordinary martial artists held significant meaning for Pei Xuanjing. He needed to set an example with these ordinary martial artists to show all martial artists that his words were true and not simply empty talk.

Of course, these martial artists from major forces weren’t useless to Pei Xuanjing. On the contrary, they were of great use to him, just not urgently so at the moment.

What he needed was to spread his ideas to these people, slowly influencing them, and letting these ideas take root in their hearts.

He didn’t need all of them to agree with his viewpoint, just a part of them. Even if only one person approved, if they agreed with Pei Xuanjing’s ideas in the future, they would be his biggest supporters.

“No matter which sect’s disciples come, they can all apply for the selection. However, remember that their quotas must be kept within a certain range, and the quotas for ordinary martial artists must not be encroached upon.” Pei Xuanjing stated.

“Understood.”

Deng Zhong also knew what to do.

They needed to maintain a balance, allowing more ordinary martial artists to join the Martial Academy, even if adjustments were needed.

“Have all parties responded to the assignment of instructors?” Pei Xuanjing asked about another matter.

Initially, it was agreed with the Taoist School and other Ji Fang Alliances that they would send experts to act as instructors in the Taoist Academy. In response, they also agreed to send people.

Pei Xuanjing noted that these instructors could obtain teachings and exchange for skills based on their time teaching at the Taoist Academy.

Given the duration, it should be time for their response.

“No one has arrived yet. They have all responded that it will take some time to decide on the candidates.” Deng Zhong reported honestly.

Pei Xuanjing was confused. He frowned slightly and said, “Why not yet? Are there no volunteers?”

He felt that the conditions he provided were generous. Could it be that these current strong martial artists all looked down on his offer?

“Not at all.” Deng Zhong shook his head and explained with a bitter smile, “You may not know, Master, each household has made a big fuss about this instructor position. Not only them, but even our Shenxiao Sect has had serious disputes over these positions.”

For Pei Xuanjing, to teach many martial artists, he didn’t need to be too strong. Especially for those ordinary martial artists below the Fourth-grade, basically, any Grandmaster martial artist was qualified.

If these Grandmaster martial artists could receive Pei Xuanjing’s guidance, it would presumably be much easier for them to breakthrough to the Spirit Realm later.

This prime opportunity that many people sought was eagerly accepted by martial artists.

However, although the Heaven and Earth had recovered, making it easy for martial artists to cultivate and breakthrough, transitioning from Mortal Realm to Spirit Realm remained a hurdle, trapping countless martial artists who were unable to breakthrough.

This opportunity was good, but for major powers, it was more of a case of more monks than porridge, with many coveting those places, to the point of nearly coming to blows over places.

This was also true within the Shenxiao Sect. Even though Pei Xuanjing was the master, he was often cultivating and had few opportunities to guide others, except for his direct disciple, Pang Hong and other people like Yu Zhenzi.

The rest of the martial artists who couldn’t step into the Spirit Realm probably didn’t even have a chance to have a few words with Pei Xuanjing, let alone receive his guidance.

After hearing Deng Zhong’s explanation, Pei Xuanjing couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed, realizing he’d been neglecting the affairs of the Shenxiao Sect.

He thought for a moment and said, “Okay, ordinary martial artists from our sect can listen on the side of the Taoist Academy. As long as they break through to the third-grade or above, they can listen whenever I preach in the Taoist Academy in the future.”

This was his blessing to his disciples as the master of the Shenxiao Sect, and nobody would object to it.

“Thank you, Master.” Deng Zhong thanked him emotionally.

When this news is passed on, it’s bound to please his disciples and appease the sect’s martial artists. His job would also become a bit easier.

“Alright, go and get busy.” Pei Xuanjing signaled.

Deng Zhong left with his orders, and Pei Xuanjing continued to flip through the records in his hand. These were some of the happenings of this period, Bai Xiaosheng felt it necessary for Pei Xuanjing to pay attention to and would compile them into a book and send it over.

He looked through these records and understood what had happened in the Great Ming Divine Dynasty during this period.

During this time, after the Divine Dynasty’s enfeoffment, the Great Ming Divine Dynasty made many reforms, especially regarding the previous ranks of the imperial court’s nobles.

Originally, as per the old system left by Emperor Taizu of Great Ming, regardless of whether they were prince or duke, all nobles were above rank and did not enter the nine-grade system.

But now, since the Divine Dynasty’s officials’ grades are related to the divine position and Qi Luck they occupy, Zhu Houji, the master of the Divine Dynasty, immediately decided to incorporate these noble ranks into the nine-grade system.
