Chapter 54: Times Are Changing!

[Congratulations! You have completed a hidden mission.]

[Note: You have created a new branch of knowledge, increasing your influence.]

[Reward: Tome of Thousand Mystic Energy.]

Receiving the reward, Mo Jian was ecstatic.

Who would have expected that broadening the knowledge of the two elders would trigger a hidden mission?

To buy the Tome of Thousand Mystic Energy from the system store, it would cost him 100,000 IP, but now, he had received it as a reward.

How could he not be happy?

With the Tome of Thousand Mystic Energy, he wouldn’t have any problems developing Mystic Mechanics.

For the next two days, Mo Jian was busy with Elder Bai Delan and Elder Luo Zhen.

The more the two elders learned about the mysteries of energy, the more excited and curious they became.

They were like students being lectured by Mo Jian. When he introduced the Law of Conservation of Energy, they were stunned.

"Yes, energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only transform from one form to another," Mo Jian nodded and continued.

"When you use a powerful attacking technique, do you think the spiritual energy used is destroyed? No, it changes form.

"For example, fire techniques convert your spiritual energy into heat energy. In addition, energy can change state but cannot be created or destroyed.

"When you use your water technique, it’s still spiritual energy, but its state has changed from gaseous to liquid."

"I hope you can contemplate this over the next few days before we delve further. If you have any questions, you can ask."

Both Elder Luo Zhen and Elder Bai Delan shook their heads. There was too much for them to digest, so they had no questions for the moment.

With a nod, Mo Jian left the Refining Hall.

Seeing him emerge from the Refining Hall, all the instructors and disciples were shocked and confused.

They had no idea what he had been discussing with the elders for the past two days.

Apart from that, the news of his decision to remove Deng Jie’s chief title had spread like wildfire.

Many looked at him with conflicted gazes, but he didn’t care.

Returning to the Thousand Wealth Chamber, Zhao Tian rushed to greet him.

"Young Master, you’re finally back," Zhao Tian said excitedly.

"Yes. Why do you look so happy?" Mo Jian frowned.

"Hahaha! Young Master might not know, but the sales of the Platinum and Noble Grade Spirit Link have doubled in the past couple of days."

"Really? Why?"

"All thanks to you. With your massive project, many have accumulated enough funds to buy it," Zhao Tian grinned.

"Can you believe it? They work for you and then return the money to you. What a vicious cycle."

"What do you mean? They choose how to spend their money. How is that my business?" Mo Jian rolled his eyes and walked back to his room.

"I know, I know." Zhao Tian’s grin deepened. He had lost count of how many spirit stones they had in their vault.

Even the sect couldn’t boast such wealth. And with the way things were going, he knew Mo Jian was far from satisfied.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but lick his lips in excitement and anticipation.

Apart from beautiful maids, what he loved most was money.

Just thinking about it gave him joy.

Inside his study, Mo Jian looked at the grinning Zhao Tian and clicked his tongue. "Get me new books. I need to write some things."

"How many?"

"Make it twenty."

Zhao Tian nodded. Although he was confused about why Mo Jian needed such a large number, he didn’t bother to ask.

"Alright."

"Also, make an announcement. Only the top five in the Blood Fury Arena will be allowed to participate in this year’s tournament."

"Are you sure? Will the core disciples accept this?" Zhao Tian frowned.

"That’s what I want. I don’t want them to accept it." A shrewd smile appeared on Mo Jian’s face.

"They’ve been using my money to develop rapidly, and if they can’t prove they are worthy of the investment, why should we keep spending on them?

"It’s time for the sect to change its doctrine. We don’t need lazy people cultivating all day long in the name of getting stronger."

Shocked, Zhao Tian could hardly believe his ears. "Y-Young..."

"Don’t worry. I know what I’m doing." Mo Jian cut him off.

Zhao Tian nodded and chose not to dwell on the matter any longer.

With Zhao Tian’s departure, Mo Jian took a cold bath and had a nice sleep.

For the past two days, he had been busy talking and teaching. Now that his head touched the pillow, he drifted into much-needed rest.

While Mo Jian was having a sweet dream, Zhao Tian made the announcement.

Instantly, the news shocked everyone. All the elders couldn’t believe Mo Jian would be so bold as to dictate who could participate in the tournament.

Top five? How many matches would they have to win before securing a place among the top five?

"Senior Brother Peng, that trash is going too far," a thin male disciple said to Peng Zhao.

Peng Zhao took a sip from his tea, his expression unchanged.

Previously, he would have looked down on Mo Jian’s actions.

However, his past encounter with him had made him realize that Mo Jian was not as simple as he seemed.

Would trash have such confidence and arrogance?

Setting his teacup down, he stood and left.

Watching his back, the disciples were confused.

"Where is Senior Brother going?" a female disciple asked.

"I think he’s going to complain to the Punishment Hall Elder."

While Peng Zhao headed to the Punishment Hall Elder, in another part of the core region, inside an ordinary-looking courtyard...

A beautiful female disciple was serving an old man. She was Jing Wang.

The eldest disciple.

"Master, are you not going to stop him?" Her voice was sweet and crisp.

Supreme Elder Sun looked at his only disciple and smiled.

As one of the two supreme elders, he had the authority to command wind and rain in the sect.

Elder Sun smiled. "What do you think of him?"

A disdainful look appeared on her face. "He’s nothing but trash. Without his parents, he’s nothing."

"You’re wrong. His parents are part of his strength. So, he is not nothing, and you cannot look down on him," Elder Sun said slowly.

"Tomorrow, go to the Blood Fury Arena."

"What?" Jing Wang was stunned.

She couldn’t believe her master would ask her to follow Mo Jian’s rules.

"Master, why?" She felt she was being looked down upon.

"Times are changing, and you must change with them if you don’t want to be left behind."
