Chapter 326 Volume C Black Thugs, the Beginning of Reform
When Tang Wenhu, who was at the fifth level of Qi Refining, and Ma Xianggui, who was at the eighth level of Qi Refining, were in a stalemate, and when Chen Huaisheng, who was at the seventh level of Qi Refining, forced Zhong Ziqi, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, into a state of embarrassment, the atmosphere in the venue was also set off to the extreme.
The noisy criticism from the audience made Yang Delong and Sun Yicheng, who were sitting on the highest level, look gloomy, and the group of old people sitting on the second level were also sitting on pins and needles.
No one expected that a Qi Refining Level 8 would be restrained by a Qi Refining Level 5, and he couldn't find a way to break through, and he didn't have the strength to suppress the other party.
This is a gap of three levels, and Ma Xianggui has fallen to this!
Zhong Ziqi, who was also at the ninth level of Qi Refining and was about to impact the foundation building, was beaten up by Chen Huaisheng, who was at the seventh level of Qi Refining, with sword cultivation, spells, and magic tools. He was so embarrassed that he couldn't find a suitable response.
In the eyes of the disciples below the stage, if Chen Huaisheng had not shown mercy, I'm afraid that this Master Zhong or his great-grandmaster would have rolled off the stage in disgrace.
In the end, when Chen Huaisheng used the Tianluo Yuan Shield to withstand Zhong Ziqi's magic attack, and used the tenth level of thunder magic to hit his opponent, he forced Zhong Ziqi to retreat step by step.
If Wu Tianen on the stage had not kept winking at Chen Huaisheng, Chen Huaisheng really intended to force him off the stage step by step and make him lose face completely.
As the "backbone" of the inner hall of the Transmission Academy, he was beaten back step by step by a disciple who also belonged to the high stage of Qi Refining.
Others crossed the line to challenge, and his side had no power to fight back. This contrast is too unacceptable.
Yang Delong and Sun Yicheng certainly knew the connection here.
Tang Wenhu and Chen Huaisheng were pushed out by Shang Jiuling and Zhu Fengbi to beat their gang. If they don't know what's going on, there will be more tricks to follow until your reputation is completely infamous in the sect.
They also know that Zhong Ziqi and his gang have been a little bit carried away during this period. They have been struggling for their descendants and relatives in the sect, and they have also complained in front of them, and they are obsessed with getting more resources. This has caused anger and dissatisfaction among many disciples in the sect.
But in the eyes of Yang Delong and Sun Yicheng, after all, these old brothers have entered the sect since they were young, and they have worked hard for the sect all their lives. It is understandable that they are now fighting for more resources and benefits for their descendants.
The sect is now treating these old people with favor, which can also appease people's hearts. After all, people will get old, and most people will eventually reach this point. Everyone can understand.
But they forgot that the Chonghua Sect had just entered Hebei, and it was the time to inspire people and work hard to return to Dazhao. Only these young people and young strength are the future of the sect, and those old people who are not enterprising and only seek comfort and leisure are the targets to be eliminated.
Especially in such a situation, if you hide quietly on the side, it will be fine, but if you come out to shout and make trouble, you will really hit the muzzle of the gun.
This cross-level challenge, which was highly expected, ended in a colorful way, winning the shouts and applause of the disciples below the stage.
The whole competition was also five rounds, with Tang Wenhu and Chen Huaisheng's head-on attack on the old sect, and Zhao Sitian, Yuan Wenbo and Yao Liwei's guidance to several other young and strong disciples. It can be said that this competition was arranged in a proper way, which made the disciples who were completely unaware of the inside story excited and intoxicated.
In particular, the performance of Tang Wenhu and Chen Huaisheng has inspired the infinite ambition and aspirations of the young disciples. Since the senior brothers can successfully challenge the higher level, why can't they do it?
Perhaps as the senior brothers who came on stage to lecture and discuss the doctrine said, as long as they persist in their efforts, one day they can also make a comeback.
That's right, the top leaders of the Chonghua Sect hope to create an atmosphere in the sect where youth is capital and as long as they work hard, they can make a comeback.
This atmosphere is to promote the sect disciples to chase each other in the process of cultivation, so that more outstanding disciples can burst out in this environment.
The grand celebration ended with Shang Jiuling's hopeful speech. It seemed that the previous competitions were trivial and insignificant, but the impact and encouragement on everyone in the sect was still a lasting impact.
At noon, Yang Delong and Sun Yicheng took the initiative to express to Shang Jiuling their support for the sect's changes to some of the sect's rules, and expressed their intention to retire. Shang Jiuling also tried to retain them, but supported their "proposed" opinion of cleaning up some of the disciples who were idle in the Transmission Academy and did not know how to restrain themselves, and quickly announced it in the sect.
"Awesome!" Chen Huaisheng didn't care about being a "black thug".
He knew that it was only a matter of time before Zhong Ziqi and his gang of old men were cleaned up. If the sect wanted to grow and develop, it had to win the loyalty of this group of young and strong disciples, and it had to break the original interest structure.
This could be felt from the fact that Yun He and Luo Xiuyue came to him in a hurry to inquire about the news.
Although these two were not the objects of cleaning up, it was still obvious that they seemed to be content with the status quo for so many years.
When he entered the sect, Yun He was at the fifth level of Qi Refining and Luo Xiuyue was at the fourth level of Qi Refining, but now he was at the seventh level of Qi Refining. Four years have passed, and they are still the same.
Now the sect has issued a series of rules.
The monthly allowance has been greatly improved compared to the time in Langling, but it has also been accompanied by reward and punishment measures.
For those who have not advanced to the first and middle stages of Qi training for three years, their monthly allowance will be reduced by 10%, for those who have not advanced to the first stage for five years, it will be reduced by 30%, for those who have not advanced to the first stage for eight years, only half of it will be retained, and for those who have not advanced to the first stage for ten years, they should consider leaving the Transmission Institute and going to the Internal Affairs Institute.
Even if you don't want to go, if your monthly allowance is cancelled, you can't stay there.
By analogy, the minimum standard time for the promotion of the high stage of Qi training has been changed to five years, eight years, ten years, and twelve years.
Of course, there are rewards and punishments.
The standard for the first stage is three years, the standard for the middle stage is five years, and the standard for the high stage is eight years. For each year of advancement in advance, the monthly allowance of the first and middle stages will increase by 10%, and for each year of advancement in advance, the monthly allowance of the high stage will increase by half.
Couples like Yun He and Luo Xiu Yue are now facing tremendous pressure.
Yun He is at the fifth level of Qi training, but he has not made any progress in seven years, which means that his monthly allowance will be reduced by 30%, and if he waits another year, it will be reduced by half.
Compared with the previous monthly salary, the monthly salary has increased a lot, so even if it is reduced by 30%, Yun He's monthly salary income has only decreased slightly, not too much.
However, if he still cannot advance to the sixth level of Qi Refining next year, his monthly salary will be reduced to half of the standard monthly salary, which will be a significant decrease.
The same is true for Luo Xiuyue. She has been hovering at the fourth level of Qi Refining for eight years and can only get half of the standard monthly salary. This is a big blow.
In comparison, Cai Jinyang does not have much pressure.
He has just advanced from the third level of Qi Refining (beginning stage) to the fourth level of Qi Refining (middle stage). Because the third level to the fourth level is a level promotion, it can be extended to five years, but the fourth level to the fifth level is still only three years.
However, even so, he still has more than a year, and the monthly salary of the new standard of preferential treatment has been increased. Even if it has not been increased in more than a year, there are still two years of buffer time, and the monthly income will not be much reduced compared to the original monthly salary.
"Brother Yun, Sister Luo, Brother Cai, does this have a big impact on you?" The joint visit of the three still surprised Chen Huaisheng.
He knew that the new sect rules had caused a great shock in the entire sect. Among the new generation of disciples, this influence was mostly positive.
Everyone was confident that they would be promoted within three years, and many people even hoped to be promoted in advance and increase their monthly allowance.
Indeed, many disciples had achieved this goal, such as Ren Wugui and Ren Wuchen.
"Why not?" Luo Xiuyue said angrily: "Now I can only get half of the new standard, even if the new standard is a little higher than the original, but I still have a lot less."
"Brother Yun, it won't be affected much, right?" Chen Huaisheng asked Yunhe with a smile.
"Not big, but if I can't be promoted next year, it will be big." Yunhe said honestly.
"Then are you sure you can be promoted next year?" Chen Huaisheng pondered for a moment and asked: "Or do you have any ideas?"
He also wanted to understand the situation of these disciples for the sect.
The young disciples cheered, and those old people who had long been unwilling to make progress or were unable to change naturally didn't need to be mentioned, but middle-aged people like Yunhe and Luo Xiuyue who were neither good nor bad needed to be considered the most.
"What else can we do? We can only calm down and practice, and strive to break through the realm and advance to the next level." Yun He sighed, "I have been tied up by my children in the past few years, and I have spent my mind on them, so I have been delayed. In this situation, I have to try my best. I can't just watch my monthly salary being reduced by half, right?"
"I don't know which wicked person came up with such an idea, and what kind of reform, so they moved north to Hebei. Instead of comforting our loyal old disciples, they came up with this. Isn't it intentional to chill people's hearts?" Luo Xiuyue still couldn't help but get angry.
"That can't be said. The old guys in the inner hall are indeed too much. If the sect wants to gain a foothold in Hebei, they will definitely not tolerate it. What's more, the sect is not peaceful now. It just came too suddenly, which caught us off guard."
Yun He shook his head. He was much more rational than his wife. Although he didn't talk much, he could still see the situation clearly.
What's more, disciples who have reached the middle stage of Qi Refining can find some ways to make up for it.
Whether it's hunting, planting spiritual plants, making magic tools at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, or even some channels outside the sect, you can make some money, but the monthly salary has been reduced, and it's embarrassing.
At the beginning, Luo Xiuyue was so generous to give Chen Huaisheng the Xuanmu Talisman, one piece cost more than 100 spiritual stones. If he didn't have some confidence, how could he be so generous?

Can you give me a few more monthly tickets?
