Li Huaide himself is well aware of the benefits of having his own power. He spent a lot of money and effort to win over these people, but now he suddenly let go of them for nothing, and all the previous efforts and investments were in vain. Not only that, but it is also easy to provoke these people to turn against each other and increase many enemies for no reason.
At the beginning, in order to attract people easily and quickly be useful, Li Huaide's approach was a bit eager for quick success, and the people he found were not decent people. To be precise, most of them are profit-seekers, people who dare to take risks for a small profit.
These people are willing to follow Huai Mengde in the hope that they will succeed in the future.
Now that he dared to say quit, it would be strange if these people didn't resent him, trip him up secretly, or even plot against him.
Li Huaide is now being put on fire by himself. If these people don't turn against the water, they have to rush forward all the way until they hold the power in the view of peace.
As long as he holds great power, these people will not dare to turn against him, but will desperately serve him.
Li Huaide was constantly instigated by these people, and he was also moved.
His current life, compared to previous lives, is most in line with his own wishes.
Li Huaide has a firm moral heart. Apart from marrying his junior sister, what he wants most is to become a fairy and gain the Tao.
Pingtian Temple is a super sect with a complete and top-notch inheritance of Taoism. The identity of Huai Mengde is the closest to this kind of top inheritance among all the identities he has ever had.
If he is recognized by the Sun family and becomes a true disciple of Pingtian Temple, he can get the best inheritance of Taoism.
You know, Li Huaide has been around for so long, and only in this life can he get the basic part of the top Taoism. There is no inheritance of Taoism after Jindan. If you lose this identity and want to get it again, it will be hard to say sincerity.
If you don't become a true disciple, how can you get the top Taoism
Top-notch Taoism, the resources required for practice are often quite demanding. Those who are not disciples of super sects are often unable to get money even if they have money.
On his own, he would have to spend an immeasurable amount of time just searching for the elixir for training.
Precious training time was lost just like that.
Therefore, even for his own sake, Li Huaide should try his best to become a true disciple of Pingtian Temple. And to become a true disciple, the fastest shortcut is of course to get the recognition and support of the Sun family.
If Guanzhu Sun asks for a true discipleship for his grandson, who would object? Who dares to object
Li Huaide finally made up his mind to fight.
One favorable condition for him is that Deacon Sun has a good impression now. Although he will not publicly recognize his relatives, he will still defend him in private.
Without Sun Zhongde and Mrs. Yu's obstruction, this kind of protection can play an unprecedented role.
When Li Huaide competes for true disciples, he can provide a lot of help.
Pingtian Temple has a year-end disciple assessment every year. The competition among true disciples is fierce, and the competition among inner disciples is simply fierce.
At the end of the year, there will be a ranking competition for the inner disciples, the top ten will get a big prize, and the top three will have a chance to challenge the true disciples. If you win the challenge, you can replace the opponent as a true disciple.
Usually this kind of challenge will not be successful, because there is a considerable gap between true disciples and inner disciples in terms of talent and training conditions. But this is the only legitimate way for inner disciples to advance.
Therefore, knowing that the hope is slim, there are still some people who will fight for the top three inner disciples every year.
The first thing Li Huaide has to do is to participate in the ranking competition. Pingtian Temple has a lot of inner disciples, because it includes geniuses from the entire Qi Kingdom. Other Taoist temples often only have one state, but Pingtian Temple has a country and an inner courtyard with many talents, so the competition is extremely cruel.
Every year at this time, Taoist monasteries in various places will also send their inner disciples to participate. There is only one quota for small daoist colleges, three for medium daoist colleges, and five for great daoist colleges.
There are five places in Jiping Taoist Temple. Now that Li Huaide wants to participate in the inner court ranking competition, he must first obtain a place in Jiping Daoyuan.
In previous years, he didn't even think about it, Sun Zhongde would not let him get this kind of opportunity.
The creation of Taoist places, the first is voluntary registration, not everyone is willing to go. People from the Taoist temple will often be hit hard when they go to the inner courtyard. Many people ran to the competition full of confidence, only to find out that compared with the inner court disciples, they were just like rookies, being hanged and beaten at will. Some people will be devastated.
After many people have been there once, they no longer want to participate in the competition.
Followed by the recommendation of the dean and professors. Let your outstanding disciples go to experience it and open their eyes.
When there are a large number of applicants, the Taoist Academy that pays attention to fairness will conduct intra-institutional competitions, and the contestants will be determined through battles.
Generally speaking, the dean will reserve one or two places for the default genius or his own disciple.
There are selfishness and objective reasons in this. Some geniuses are young, not strong enough, and not strong enough to fight, but it is a pity not to let them experience it.
If Li Huaide wants the default quota, he has to go to Dean Shi Guishengshi's relationship, chat, give gifts, treat him to dinner, and contact him if he has nothing to do.
Li Huaide was unwilling to do this kind of thing, he felt that with his own strength, he could get the spot.
After being reincarnated for so long, he has a thorough understanding of the fire system Taoism that Huai Mengde is good at.
However, just to be on the safe side, he still wants to learn a few more fire-type Taoism and practice more.
After all, what he wants is not to defeat the disciples of the Taoist Academy, but to defeat the top geniuses in the entire inner courtyard.
In addition to completing the work of the deacon, Li Huaide spent most of his time on training.
He let out the wind that he would participate in the ranking competition.
One is to appease those subordinates who support him, and the other is to pass the news to Deacon Sun to see how he reacts.
The ranking competition in the inner court will start in early December, and the selection competition in the Taoist academy will be brought forward to October. After selecting a person, the monastery will send someone to specially train the methods and rules of fighting in the ring.
It is now August, and it is not too early for Li Huaide to release this rumor.
When Li Cangyue heard the news, she asked someone about the ranking match.
She herself doesn't want to participate, she likes to watch people fight, and finds it very exciting, but if she is asked to fight in person, she will avoid it.
It's just that the inner courtyard doesn't welcome people to watch the excitement. Once the game starts, it's difficult for unrelated people to get in and watch.
Li Cangyue didn't have to watch it either, after inquiring about it, it wasn't easy to get in, so she gave up.
One August, Li Huaide was busy practicing. What made him feel at ease was that the junior sister seemed to be playing Li Cangyue more and more vigorously.
Since You Xuan left, she seldom even participated in gatherings like seminars, and spent all day reading in the Buddhist scripture pavilion.
Li Huaide thinks such a junior is very interesting, and he likes it more than a junior who is surrounded by handsome men all the year round.
Li Cangyue doesn't go to Dao seminars very much because without You Xuan being around to make fun of her, and she can't joke around, the atmosphere in the whole venue is often cold and it's not fun.
In addition, the matter of Axiu's conceiving a baby cannot be delayed any longer. Now she is immersed in reading the scriptures, helping Axiu find information about Feitian Yasha's promotion.
