Chapter 149: Chapter 127 Empress Dowager Becomes a Heavenly Phenomenon (Request for Monthly Ticket)_3 "Junior Brother Li, this is impossible. It has never been done before and does not conform to the rules. By doing this, you are breaking the rules..." Elder Kang spoke somberly. "The past is the past, but from now on, recruitment will be done according to my rules." Li Qian stated indifferently. "Junior Brother Li... Are you joking? According to your own rules?" Elder Kang was stunned, and then scoffed with a cold smile: "You’re not even an elder, I’m afraid you’re not qualified to establish new rules for recruitment." "Heh, you’ll soon find out whether I’m qualified or not." Li Qian smiled lightly. After finishing his words, he turned and left. He went straight to the Divine Sword Army Camp. "Huh? Li Qian, are you sure you want to mobilize the Martial Arts Army for this recruitment?" Xiao Heavenly Person was somewhat astonished by Li Qian’s idea. To use the Martial Arts Army for recruitment, what a grand gesture! "Of course. The people from the Assessment Hall cannot be trusted, and temporarily pulling in others is also not viable. Right now, the only option I can rely on is the Divine Sword Army." Li Qian declared. "But the Divine Sword Army should not be mobilized lightly. Once there is a disturbance at the front line, they must rush to the front." Xiao Heavenly Person said gravely. "Great Uncle Master, don’t worry. That senior has said that the Ning Prince Mansion’s forces cannot cross the Min River." Li Qian spoke softly. "Really?" Upon hearing this, Xiao Heavenly Person’s expression immediately relaxed, and he slammed his hands on the table: "Alright, the entire Divine Sword Army is temporarily yours for recruitment." With that senior’s promise, what was there to worry about? Moreover, he saw even greater potential in Li Qian. "Thank you, Great Uncle Master. This recruitment will certainly exceed your expectations." Li Qian promptly said. "Ha-ha, then this old man shall wait and see." Xiao Heavenly Person laughed heartily. He had just reviewed the recruitment situation in Pingze County that Li Qian had submitted, and he was greatly shocked, to the point that it sent shivers down his spine. He could not have imagined that the situation would be so grave. Half a day later, there was significant activity from the entire Divine Sword Army. Squadrons of soldiers, upon receiving the orders, left the camp and headed towards the three states and seventeen counties of Divine Sword Sect. Simultaneously, Li Qian, accompanied by a troop of Divine Sword Army soldiers, arrived at the Assessment Hall. The first thing he did was to take control of everyone in the Assessment Hall. "Li Qian, how... how did you manage to do this?" Upon seeing the armor-clad Divine Sword Army soldiers behind Li Qian, Elder Kang finally understood the confidence behind Li Qian’s bold actions—he had the backing of that Uncle Master. "Elder Kang, you had better start thinking about how to explain your own affairs." Li Qian said indifferently. As he spoke, he waved his hand, and Elder Kang and the others were taken away. During the time when Li Qian made a series of bold moves, inside the Divine Sword Hall, a group of elders, retired elders, and even those with real power, approached Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu, thinking that Li Qian’s actions were far too outrageous. "Everyone, this is the intention of the Uncle Master. If you have any objections, you can go to the Divine Sword Army Camp." Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu said calmly. "Sect Leader, the Uncle Master usually does not get involved in these matters and is completely unaware of the current state of the Divine Sword Sect. With the frontline battle being so critical, many disciples and elders are fighting for their lives there. If we allow this Li Qian to continue making a mess, it will likely dishearten them, which is not conducive to the stability of our Divine Sword Sect... Continuing like this will lead to unpredictable consequences." One of the elders with real power spoke with a grave voice. The others also spoke one after another, implying that they hoped the Sect Leader would take the lead, explain the real situation to the Uncle Master, take back the decision, and settle the incident. "Hmph, so this is how loyal you claim to be to the Divine Sword Sect?" Suddenly, a chilling voice sounded in the hall. Subsequently, the Heavenly Person of Divine Sword Sect, Xiao Wendao, walked out from behind the hall with his hands behind his back. Seeing this, everyone present was startled and quickly got up to pay their respects. "Uncle Master... Although there are some issues with the recruitment, we cannot let Li Qian make such a mess. He is digging at the foundation of our Divine Sword Sect." The elder with real power hastily said. "I only believe in data. The previous recruitment expansion... even Copper Bone disciples were being recruited due to a shortage of personnel, leading to lowered standards... But look at this list, just from Pingze County alone, Li Qian has brought back at least two thousand Silver Bone level talents. It seems that the real root-diggers of the Divine Sword Sect are you, who disregard the overall situation of the sect for personal gain. From now on, all present are to be stripped of the elder and the powerful elder positions, inspect all disciples under their command, and if anyone is found damaging the interests of the Divine Sword Sect, they will be punished severely." Xiao Wendao, holding a list in his hand, stated coldly. After comparing it with previous recruitment data, he had reached a conclusion that made his heart ache. Over the years, how many Heavenly Persons of martial arts had the Divine Sword Sect missed out on? And how many incompetent individuals had taken their place, consuming the cultivation resources of the Divine Sword Sect? Everyone present felt a chill run down their spine. This moment, they realized that the Uncle Master was serious. Although they were elders and elders with real power, prestigious and influential... in front of Xiao Heavenly Person, the true controller of Divine Sword Sect, they were simply unqualified. A single word from him could strip them of all their authority and status. Evidently, the Uncle Master intended to use them as an example to establish his authority and pave the way for a thorough reform of the recruitment process. ... Shocking news spread throughout the Divine Sword Sect. A dozen elders, including one with real power, were stripped of their positions by Xiao Heavenly Person due to the recruitment issue, and inspections of their disciples were underway, with an intention to investigate thoroughly. For a time, no one dared to intervene in the recruitment process. Updated from freewebnovel.c(o)m
