On this day, Li Zhirui convened the clan leader and all the elders, gathering together in the family hall.
Before he arrived, the elders were full of curiosity, discussing amongst themselves, guessing his purpose for calling everyone together.
"Ancestor Rui hasn’t ddled in family affairs for years, yet this ti he’s making such a big display; there must be sothing very important to discuss."
"I think so too, but the family’s developnt is thriving, there doesn’t seem to be any issues."
They truly believed the family’s progress was excellent in terms of strength, inco, and other aspects, with good growth each year, unable to think of any existing problems.
It wasn’t long before Li Zhirui appeared in the hall.
"Greetings, Ancestor Rui!"
Everyone rose to pay their respects.
"Be seated. This ti I gather everyone because there is indeed a matter I need you all to push forth, which is the abolition of the regulation of giving extra subsidies to clan mbers with good aptitudes!"
This statent startled everyone suddenly, unable to understand what issue there was with this benefit arrangent for the clan mbers.
"I don’t know if you have noticed, but many clan mbers actually sell the subsidies given by the family privately, using them for indulgence instead of putting the resources to rightful use!"
Li Zhirui’s expression was extrely serious; despite not releasing any pressure, he made everyone feel a stifling sense of oppression, and the light-hearted atmosphere in the hall instantly vanished, with the elders subconsciously softening their breaths.
"It’s not that one can’t indulge; it’s not necessary to do pure cultivation, bitter cultivation, but how many of the new generation clan mbers have had their disposition and Dao Heart corrupted in this process!"
"Their current developnt might be good, but what about the future? You should know that the higher the cultivation, the more important their disposition and Dao Heart beco. If they continue like this, forget reaching the Immortal Realm, even Integration and Mahayana will be challenging!"
Li Guangjie imdiately rose and bowed: "Ancestor Rui, calm your anger. It was due to our inadequate supervision that these issues arose."
"Ancestor Rui, please calm down!"
All the elders stood up and bowed their heads.
"Ultimately, it cannot be blad on you, after all, such habits are not ford overnight."
Li Zhirui waved his hand, using mana to help everyone rise, speaking earnestly: "You must not just look at the surface. Although the family is developing well now, how many forces have vanished in the long river of history? Do not focus only on imdiate interests; set your sight further."
"Ancestor Rui instructs well, we shall rember in our hearts and will correct it as soon as possible!" Li Guangjie pledged.
"By canceling the extra subsidies, the surplus spiritual objects can be used as rewards, encouraging the clan mbers to cultivate diligently and progress in cultivation."
This can also prompt so clan mbers to devote more thought to cultivation, not just breaking through in cultivation but also in various cultivation techniques.
In short, it is to erase as much as possible those bad habits among the new generation of clan mbers.
Li Zhirui also expressed another idea of his: "Additionally, the various large and small competitions held within the family should be taken more seriously going forward, not just a formality or a going-through-the-motions.’
This internal competition thod can better stimulate the clan mbers’ desire for cultivation.
When the family initially established big and small competitions, besides honing the clan mbers’ combat ability, it also had this intention.
But over the years, many things have changed.
"This idea is excellent! Moreover, it’s even more fair."
Li Guangjie suddenly brightened, nodding repeatedly: "Thank you, Ancestor Rui, for offering these insights. It’s been hard on you."
"What’s so hard about this for ? It’s just moving my lips. The ones exerting effort are you all; it’s you all who have it tough."
Li Zhirui waved his hand, leaving just one more statent before disappearing from the hall, "If obstacles arise in implenting this, just say it was my arrangent. If still unresolved, co find or have Da Qing, Xiaoqing, among others, to appear."
It was evident he indeed provided the greatest support to Li Guangjie and the others, even ntioning taking personal action.
"You all heard, didn’t you? Ancestor Rui places great importance on these two matters. Make sure they are done well, without any errors; otherwise, if we really need to ask the ancestors to step in, we will lose all face, not to ntion our positions will beco unstable!" Li Guangjie warned solemnly to everyone.
"Rest assured, Clan Leader, we will exert all efforts and do everything possible to ensure it is done well!"
Everyone in the family hall deliberated for several days, finally producing a detailed, complete plan.
After resting for a while, the next day they began formal action!
The first thing to do is to announce to all clan mbers that starting next month, the extra subsidies for clan mbers with excellent aptitude will be canceled and replaced with a reward system based on breakthroughs in cultivation and achievents in techniques.
For instance, breaking through from the Nascent Soul Realm to the Divinity Transformation Realm will reward ten bottles of top-grade Spirit Pills, a free selection of a Divine Power of Divinity Transformation rank from the Scripture Pavilion, insights into Divinity Transformation Realm cultivation, and three Fifth Rank Earth Escape Talismans.
In short, the higher the cultivation breakthrough, the richer the reward.
And although each reward from the Li family is substantial, these are all one-ti, equating to much more cost-effective compared to monthly extra subsidies.
Besides this, the ticulous preparation for family small and large competitions is happening.
Due to the lack of sufficient ti, only one small competition will be held this year, with the big competition scheduled for next year.
Even so, the abundance of rewards for the small competition will far exceed those of previous big competitions!
