Chapter 1202: Chapter 1180: Tribal Chaos - Establishing the Halls Anew!

"Greatness inevitably leads to decline, and all things have their limits. It took the Gu Yuan Tribe a hundred years and a vast amount of spirit items to expand their tribe like inflating a balloon. However, the foundation of the tribe, the innate talents of the lowest-ranking tribespeople, had already determined how far they could ultimately go.

Indeed.

After hearing the Grand Elder’s report, Xiao Chen felt a tinge of regret in his heart. The accumulation of resources ultimately had its limits and could not break the laws of nature’s cycles.

Even with millions of tribal citizens, the Gu Yuan Tribe could not break this boundary. It was a law of heaven and earth, not easily changed. Abundant resources could make a difference to some extent, but it was impossible to build an entire tribe into the Towering Realm.

Even if Xiao Chen brought tens of millions of Martial Path Multi-storey Halls for the tribespeople to refine, he still could not break this limitation. This required the passing of generations and nurturing.

However, to ascend to King-level Tribe status more quickly, Xiao Chen had no choice but to adopt this method!

"Chieftain, this is the current number of tribal citizens and warriors at all levels."

Soon, the Grand Elder’s voice rang out, and Xiao Chen nodded slightly, motioning for him to sit down. The Great Hall then fell into a moment of silence.

With Xiao Chen’s current strength, a single thought was all it took for him to know the thoughts of everyone in the tribe.

At that moment, Tie Wen once again rose to his feet, followed by Lin Shan and Xiao Tan. Xiao Tan now looked even more aged. His strength was already the lowest among the elders. Over ten years ago, when he went deep into the Luo Long Mountain Range to inspect a mine vein, he encountered a beast tide and was caught off guard and severely injured.

Despite the Tribe’s Warriors fighting desperately to emerge from the beast tide, his very foundation was damaged. There was a limit to life, and even spirit medicine could not change that.

"Reporting to the Chieftain, we have something to report!"

It was then that Xiao Chen realized and looked at the three before him, who were among those who braved the storms with him on his journey and had maintained the calm among the tribal citizens.

Unconsciously, it was as if he had returned to that dark night, when two figures knocked on his door, and a burly man slapped his own face for failing to protect his own tribespeople.

"Elders, what is the matter?" Suppressing the stirrings in his heart, Xiao Chen asked softly.

"Chieftain, our Gu Yuan Tribe has now become a King’s Clan with millions of people, striking awe throughout the Eastern Wasteland. The three of us can no longer keep up with the tribe’s pace. Today, we wish to step down from our current positions."

Their voices echoed, resounding through the Great Hall!

What!

"Elders!" In the next moment, a warrior exclaimed in shock.

The three Grand Elders then turned to face everyone in the Great Hall. Tie Wen said in a heavy voice, "Our Gu Yuan Tribe cannot have a Grand Elder at the Six Heavens Realm!"

"Neither should Gu Yuan have a hall master who has been seriously injured and doesn’t even have the strength of a Venerable!"

"Now that Gu Yuan is a King’s Clan with millions of people, we can no longer bear the burden. Aren’t you courageous enough to take on this heavy responsibility?"

Voice after voice roared like thunder, intimidating the Great Hall, and everyone at that moment found themselves at a loss for words!

"Good!" At that moment, Xiao Chen’s voice spread throughout the Great Hall.

"Chieftain..." The crowd did not expect Xiao Chen to actually agree.

"The three elders have worked hard and contributed greatly. The rise of our Gu Yuan Tribe is supported by the three elders. In the northeastern corner of our tribe, we have the ancestral temple where we honor the valorous warriors who died in battle. From today onward, our Gu Yuan Tribe’s Grand Elder, Second Elder, and Third Elder will be appointed as great priests of the ancestral temple!"

When New City was established, there was an ancestral temple in the northeastern corner where the souls of the fallen were honored. Xiao Chen even went to the Giant Stone Valley to relocate all the tombs from the time when the Gu Yuan Tribe was a low-grade small clan into the ancestral temple.

The role of a great priest in charge of the tribe’s rituals does not require great strength, simply virtue and respect. The three Grand Elders, having governed the tribe for many years, naturally had undisputed authority!

This would also allow the three of them to relax.

"We accept the command!"

The three elders exchanged glances, each seeing the color of unregret in the depths of their eyes.

"Reporting to the Chieftain, there is still something I would like to report," the Grand Elder did not step down.

"What else is there, Grand Elder?"

"Reporting to the Chieftain, the Gu Yuan Tribe is now a thousand times stronger than it once was as a small clan. We have thirteen million tribal citizens, and strong ones are emerging. The tribe’s original seven great halls are now overburdened in supporting the operation of the tribe, and I request that the Chieftain reorganize it soon to sustain the operation of our Gu Yuan King’s great tribe!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen nodded slightly. The Gu Yuan Tribe now had millions of citizens, but the operation of the tribe was still controlled by the various great halls as before, which was already severely inadequate. The tribe began to show some contradictions, even to the point of intensification.

With millions of people, it was natural that not all needs could be met. Both internally and externally, things had become messy.

"This subordinate seconds the opinion of the Grand Elder," the War Master Hall’s master Ding Shan stood up and seconded the motion.

"I second this!" Quickly following, other hall masters also echoed their agreement, obviously feeling the pressure of the tribe’s operation over the years.

"Do any of you have suggestions?"

"Reporting to the Chieftain, with the increase in tribespeople, the Enforcement Hall is unable to cover everything. Once warriors from other tribes enter the outer city, it will become even more difficult to manage."

"Reporting to the Chieftain, the number of tribespeople has increased several-fold, resulting in a daily increase in consumption. The Internal Affairs Hall alone is already unable to govern, and it also oversees the mining of mine veins and the storage of various spirit medicines and spirit grass."

"Reporting to the Chieftain, with the increase in the number of tribal children, the Performing Martial Arts Hall is also overburdened."

"Reporting to the Chieftain, the Hundred Herbs Hall now has an increased number of alchemists and spirit plant masters, and the management between elixirs and spirit plants is in great disarray."

"Reporting to the Chieftain, the Divine Weapon Hall has now been divided into two major sections: forging weapons and crafting artifacts. As I am in charge of constructing the Starry Sky Battleship and Void Battleship, I am also overwhelmed!"

...

"Empty lines"

Many warriors looked at Xiao Chen and reported one after another.

Xiao Chen, however, found himself in a bit of a quandary. With the Grand Elder stepping down, the Enforcement Hall would need someone of high moral standing and great strength to take charge. Moreover, it was necessary to properly separate the tribe from the Outer City.

The next moment, Xiao Chen rose from his seat and walked down among the people. A gleam of light finally appeared in his silent eyes!

"Since the tribe is restructuring, it’s natural to notify all clan members. Tomorrow morning, sound the horn and summon all clan members. I, the Chief, will personally make the announcement to everyone!"

"Understood!"

The next moment, Xiao Chen disappeared from the Great Hall.

...

The next day, just as a streak of rainbow light began to appear in the Sky Vault, rosy clouds stretched across the heavens, filling the sky.

Wuu wuu wuu! Wuu wuu wuu!

Within the Gu Yuan Tribe City, the sonorous sound of horns pierced the dawn sky and echoed through the mountains and forests.

Roar roar roar!

The orders issued by Xiao Chen the previous day were well known to the people of the Gu Yuan Tribe. Today, the Chief was to summon all clan members and appoint heads for the various departments.

One by one, they left their homes and began to converge toward the East.

Meanwhile, in the sky, branches from a Jian Mu tree formed a platform a hundred feet wide. From here, Xiao Chen could stand and be seen by all clan members.

Blue Stone Garden.

Xiao Chen’s residence was still known as the Blue Stone Garden, though its location was now by the side of the Deep Blue King Lake, near the water.

Behind Xiao Chen stood Mu Qing and Nianhua, and of course his children Xiao Qingyou, Xiao Yufei, and Xiao Qianyuan.

"Chief!"

...

The moment Xiao Chen, with his two wives and three heirs, appeared, a thunderous chorus of greetings erupted from within the tribe, unable to subside for a long time.

Xiao Chen made no grand gestures and stood upon the platform built of Jian Mu. He signaled to Xiao Qianyuan, who then stepped forward, and the cheers for the young Chief filled the tribe once more.

"Gu Yuan tribesmen, the Chief has a decree!"

Xiao Qianyuan held a purple-gold scroll in his hand. His slightly youthful voice rang out, and at this moment, all the tribesmen fell silent.

"The King’s Clan established itself in the Desolate Wilds and began to assign vassal tribes. The structure of a tribe must be rooted in rules and traditions, for without rules, there can be no tribe."

At this, Xiao Qianyuan paused, his voice booming as if thunder.

"By the Chief’s command, the Enforcement Hall is established, with the Chun Mu Venerable appointed as the Master of the Enforcement Hall, in charge of overseeing the enforcement of laws and monitoring the tribe’s citizenry!"

"I shall obey the command!"

Subsequently, an ancient voice echoed from deep within the tribe, and a black-robed old man appeared. On his shoulder perched a jet-black Nine Nether heavy bird.

Thus, he stepped into the Void and bowed in the direction of Xiao Chen, and though the old man had lived for an exceedingly long time, with the aid of Spirit Medicine, he could certainly last another thousand years.

Chunmu Old Ancestor was the most suitable candidate considered by Xiao Chen after much deliberation due to his venerable status and sufficient strength for the Enforcement Hall...

"The various tribes ravage the Desolate Earth, but we, the Gu Yuan, rank among the King’s Clan and shall dominate the regions. Hence, the Heavenly Soldier Hall is established. Ding Shan, formerly the master of the War Master Hall, is now appointed as the Master of the Heavenly Soldier Hall, in command of the Tribe’s Sky Soldiers for the conquest of the regions!"

"I shall obey the command!"

"Establish the War Master Hall, with Shi Ya appointed as the Master, in charge of controlling the safety of Gu Yuan’s Outer City!"

"Establish the Martial Path Foundation Building Hall, with Elder Shi as the Master, responsible for the Martial Arts Foundation Building of the tribe’s children. The Chief hereby awards the Heavenly Dragon Bone Tempering Technique!"

"Establish the Martial Path Training Hall, with Xue Sha as the Master, tasked with overseeing the martial cultivation of the tribe’s youth, awarded the Twelve Heavenly Dragon Channeling Techniques!"

"Establish the Martial Path Multi-storey Hall, with Huang Liang as the Master, awarded the Heavenly Dragon Nine Tribulations Manual, in charge of overseeing the tribe’s young promising warriors!"

"Establish the Medicine King Hall, with Zi Yuan serving as the Master, tasked with overseeing the refining of Spiritual Pills and cultivation of Spirit Medicine!"

"Establish the Ten Thousand Spirits Hall, with Qing Jingmu appointed as the Master, in charge of cultivating Heaven and Earth Spirit Items!"

"Establish the Divine Weapon Hall, tasked with forging weapons and armor for the tribe, with Gu Tianjiang as the Master."

"Establish the Artifact Hall, tasked with crafting the Tribe’s warships, with Xiao Lin as the Master."

"Establish the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, with Lord Qingjiao as the Master!"

"Establish the Divine Storage Hall, with Mu Wu Ya as the Master, tasked with mining divine metals from the tribe’s mine veins!"

"Establish the Internal Affairs Hall, with Tie Wen in charge of overseeing the scheduling of various necessities for the tribe’s citizenry."

Xiao Qianyuan’s voice spread throughout the entire tribe, falling into the ears of each tribe member without missing a beat. To better manage the tribe, Xiao Chen had refined each department with specific duties.

There’s still one more update that hasn’t been coded yet!
