Chapter 2253 - 2254: Spirit Pool Opens
However, since the Sect Master had already announced it openly, he wasn’t foolish enough to oppose it!
Even if he were to oppose it, it would have to be done in private. Falling out with the Sect Master was not a wise choice! Moreover, he currently had his sights on acquiring Gold Silk Wood and some Body Refinement cultivation techniques. He still needed the Sect Master for those.
"Since the matter of appointing the assistant elder is settled, let’s proceed with the selection of disciples. Elder Ye, please come over here!" The Sect Master gestured to Ye Luo.
Ye Luo had no choice but to step forward. This time, he was rightfully standing in front of the old woman.
Although the old woman’s gaze remained grim, she ultimately said nothing. After all, he was the Sect Master’s personally appointed assistant elder, which placed him above her in rank, regardless of strength.
Next came the selection of the disciples.
These disciples weren’t foolish. They chose elders primarily for cultivation resources. As for elder guidance, if an elder was in a good mood, it might be possible to receive a bit of guidance. However, with so many disciples, if an elder were to guide each one individually, where would the elder find time? To think otherwise would be pure fantasy!
Of course, following a powerful elder provided many advantages over a less skilled one.
The most crucial advantage was the cultivation resources. Don’t be fooled by the Sect Master’s claim of resource equity; it’s simply impossible. Even if the Sect managed to allocate resources equally, would the weaker elders dare to demand it?
Absolutely not! There wasn’t that much harmony among the elders. Even within the same sect, there were countless examples of elders clashing over cultivation resources.
Therefore, the final outcome was always resource allocation based on rank, something the Sect Master merely turned a blind eye to. This had always been the case in past allocations, and apart from Ye Luo, there would be no special exceptions this time either.
However, the unexpected presence of Ye Luo was enough to change many things! At least in terms of resources, Ye Luo was sure to take a larger share! And these resources would have to be deducted from other elders.
