Chapter 63: Hua Lu
"Cultivators still need their individuality, but we need to give them a sense of belonging.
With how the sect works, how can they feel this?
This is also why many sects ended up having the sect leader's descendants continue the sect since they feel the sect is their family.
But those genius ones? Those that succeed will just go out and build their own sect or family."
"What do you suggest then?" Mingyue asked since what Alex said was correct.
The good cultivators will still provide some backing to the sect they come from, while the others will just give them some resources and call it even.
If the cultivator succeeded and became immortal, they would just announce the sect was under their protection and then not do anything since the words alone would bring a lot of benefits to the sect.
"We make them think of the sect as their family. Only when they endure hardships together will they develop a sense of comradeship."
Alex suggested changing how it works.
In the first year, every cultivator is required to practice together without the use of qi to make sure everyone has a similar strength level so they can cooperate with each other.
Every cultivator will then be given a nickname that they will use for the entire year.
This is done to give them a new identity, as he puts them through hellish training to the point they forget where they come from and what talents they have.
This program will last three months, but Alex will make the training feel like three years of Hell.
After three months, everyone will then gather together and have a party to relieve their stress.
Afterward, they will be reassessed based on their potential, and some will become inner and core disciples. But even though they will have different places to live, Alex won't really separate them.
Depending on the number of people, Alex will separate them into their own groups.
For example, if there are two core disciples, then there will be two groups.
Each core disciple will then become responsible for the inner disciples and the inner disciples, in turn, for the outer disciples.
Each group will have its own elders responsible for giving out missions and tasks for them to achieve.
Alex wants the sect to feel like a second home for them to live in, where they can return to. Not just a checkpoint in their cultivation journey.
Most sects are unable to do this because they are limited in strength and resources. Thankfully, Alex and MingYue are Progenitors, meaning their journey will not stop unless they are dead or they reach the peak of strength.
Bai Yue Sect also has another big cheat that will make every cultivator unable to leave, and that is Alex's world technology.
It's not the weapons or even Mana, but the entertainment from his world.
Once tasting it, Alex is sure they will get addicted.
This doesn't mean they'll give them everything from Alex's world. They will choose the ones that can increase the feeling of comradeship among the sect members.
For example, having a MOBA tournament. But Alex needs to consider this thoroughly since it can also make a crack as they begin to call each other names.
He still remembers some of the people in his high school stopped becoming friends because the others kept kill stealing, and then in retaliation, he became a feeder to the other group, resulting in their complete defeat.
Afterward, neither of them can even talk to each other without calling each other names.
"You Walking Gold Pinata!"
"You KS artist!"
The sect will also give tasks to help people in their city and expand the sect's territory.
There are still many details that haven't been fleshed out yet, but this is already enough for them to start running.
It didn't take long for the steel gate to open, revealing a woman dressed in a white shirt and blue jeans.
After MingYue introduced modern clothing, many preferred to wear it since it was more comfortable and easier to use compared to their own old clothing.
But MingYue made a rule not to allow them to wear it outside the secret realm since it would make them the center of attention, something they wanted to avoid for now.
The woman then greeted them.
She looked at ZanLu affectionately with a beautiful smile, then bowed toward MingYue.
The woman had quite an attractive face, though not quite a beauty, with black hair in a bob-cut style.
Her name was HuaLu, ZanLu's wife.
"Welcome back, Lady MingYue," she said with respect.
MingYue nodded and then instructed ZanLu to let all the newcomers mingle with the current populace.
They also needed to register all their names and information to create IDs, a concept still foreign to them.
Usually, if they were just normal commoners, no one would care whom they married or how many kids they had.
But it's different in this place; not only did they need to put all their information, but each of them also needed to provide a vial of blood and have their weight and height measured.
All these required someone to instruct to make sure everything ran smoothly.
Thankfully, commoners in MingYue's world are already accustomed to following instructions without asking why.
If this were done with people from the prominent family, they would keep asking what this is for, resulting in a waste of time and resources.
The group then entered through the gate, and inside, they found many camps built on the ground, as the real accommodation was still being built.
Alex has sent many camping tools to allow them to live temporarily. It's nothing sophisticated for Alex, but for these people, they find it interesting.
The newcomers feel like they are entering a completely new world.
ZanLu then started instructing them on what they needed to do since almost every one among them could not read. If not, MingYue would just give them a starter guide.
MingYue also told the JianFeng family to mingle with the others; she only took MingHao with her, as HuaLu tells MingYue about the current situation of the sect.
