Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Certainly, everything has its pros and cons. As long as Da Rong possesses enough Spirit Fruit and Elixirs, it can then command more Innate Martial Artists.

The drive of interests can sometimes prove to be more solid; sentiments, on the other hand, can sometimes vanish.

After listening to Yang Zhenshan’s narrative, Emperor Yanping’s eyes brightened. "This is a good idea! Elder Chen, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, Marquis Jing’an is experienced and strategically adept; I believe it’s feasible," Chen Zhongshu said with a smile.

"I dare not claim so; it’s merely a humble observation from your servant. There are still many deficiencies that require Your Majesty’s input to perfect," Yang Zhenshan quickly responded with humility.

"Hmm!" Emperor Yanping wasn’t concerned with Yang Zhenshan’s modesty; he thought highly of him. Whether it was in military strategies, governance of the people, or statecraft, Yang Zhenshan always provided profound insights.

"Do you have any other proposals, my loyal subject?"

Yang Zhenshan thought for a moment, then added, "I believe it would be beneficial to strengthen the court’s ties with the esteemed elders. Enhancing relations through contact would be good."

"While in Cui Xia Valley, I saw the revered elders deliberating together and gained much from it,"

"Therefore, I think the court could organize an Innate Martial Artists Conference every three years, with Your Majesty hosting a banquet for the esteemed elders to deliberate together. It would deepen the court’s relationship with the elders and also provide an opportunity for them to exchange cultivation insights."

The Innate Martial Artists Conference, also known as the Innate Martial Artists Exchange Conference, encapsulates this idea.

Since Innate Martial Artists are not dangerous beasts, there is no need to hide or suppress them. Rather, it benefits the development of Martial Arts in Da Rong to bring them out into the open.
