Chapter 216: Lin Yi's Final Goal
Lin Yi took a different approach, which all five factions could accept without hesitation without clashing over interests. The leader of each of the five sects will become a member of the Committee of Five, which will guarantee overall power throughout the Alliance.
Thus, this would put Ouyang Ming in the position of one of the five, but Lin Yi would remain free to rule. He had no doubt that if his proposals changed each of the sects, then the people themselves would accept their new ruler.
However, this was still a long way off. You can’t rush into such a matter and lay out all your cards at once, otherwise people will start putting spokes in the wheels. At first, all power will remain in the hands of the sect masters.
“The second step is the creation of a military body headed by me, the main disciple of the Alliance. It doesn’t have to be big; three hundred people is enough. They will be divided into five detachments, one for each sect, the main disciples will be appointed commanders of them, and I will become the captain of the entire body. Then, if the demons try to break through the defenses of our sects on any of the flanks, this small army will immediately be sent to intercept.”
Ouyang Ming nodded. Already at the peak of the second class, Lin Yi fought with the experts of the first and was virtually invulnerable until the experts at the peak of the first. Now, with amazing speed, he had risen to first class and was probably not even on par with the experts at the peak of first class, but superior to them.
And the main disciples of the four other sects are also far from weaklings. In addition to Linghu Feng, they would be like a squad of five elite first-class experts. Together with the three hundred experts of the second, it would be a powerful army, especially if Lin Yi taught his sword formation to all of them. Such combat power cannot be defeated by anyone except the supreme experts.
They will be able to change the outcome of any battle in the shortest possible time.
After waiting for Lin Yi to nod, he continued.:
“The third and most important stage is to teach all Alliance students sword formation so that their combat power rises by an order of magnitude. The idea of individualism needs to be challenged by showing them what united units can do. Then, when the time comes, each of the five sects will have their own sword formations. At some point the demons will also understand the benefits of discipline, but even then the warbands will be invincible in defense.”
