I Have A Cultivation World

Chapter 1047: Chapter 573 Longevity Academy_2 Chapter 1047: Chapter 573 Longevity Academy_2 The three wars against the Shake Mountain Top South Xuan Sect had nearly drained the Divine Wood Sect’s savings accumulated over several decades.

Now with the addition of Chen Mobai, a Golden Core Cultivator, the Sect had to spend an extra five hundred thousand Spirit Stones each year.

Thus, E Yun’s concerns were quite justified.

“These students will need at least six years before they can be considered for acceptance. And by then, the majority of the Rank-1 Cave Dwelling student quotas will require testing to join the Sect, which can be used to filter out those who do not meet the Sect’s standards.”

“As for the Rank-2 Cave Dwelling student quotas, even though they are guaranteed admission, since we’ve already charged them ten thousand Spirit Stones, the cost of at most a hundred Spirit Stones a year is negligible. Besides, in the future, I plan to implement an assessment system within the Sect, releasing some of the older disciples who lack potential from Giant Tree Ridge to contribute back to the entire Eastern Wilderness cultivation world.”

“Although the Sect’s finances have been strained in recent years due to the repercussions of the war, now that we have seven countries under our command plus Yun Meng Ze, we can generate an income of seven to eight million Spirit Stones a year. If we continue to live in peace, even if our expenditures were to double, we would still be in a surplus.”

“In my vision for the Divine Wood Sect, we should have tens of thousands of cultivators, with Nascent Soul Ancestors above and ten thousand Qi Cultivators below. A single wave of my hand should be able to muster an army of cultivators capable of suppressing the nineteen countries of the Eastern Wilderness.”

Chen Mobai’s words stirred E Yun and the others, prompting them to envision a grand scenario where tens of thousands of cultivators would emerge from the Sect to awe the Eastern Wilderness.

“I hope that within my lifetime, I will be able to witness this scene by your side, Sect Leader!”

Yuan Chiye, who was beside them, said with deep emotion. More than twenty years ago, when he brought Chen Mobai into the Sect from Yun Country, he could never have imagined that this person could change the Divine Wood Sect, and even the entire Eastern Wilderness.

“Sect Leader, there is another issue. Should the Cave Dwelling’s enrollment quota be available every year or should there be some restrictions?”

E Yun, ever the calm one, raised another key question.

After all, the duration of the property rights for the Cave Dwellings in Beiyuan City was extended, and according to Chen Mobai’s wishes, the Scholarly Mansion was to enroll a new class each year.

If a Cave Dwelling were able to guarantee student admissions every year, it wouldn’t take long for trading Cave Dwellings to become the hottest thing in Beiyuan City.

“Let’s set a limit of ten years. Since Rank-2 Cave Dwellings can be guaranteed admission, to avoid a drop in quality within the Sect in the future, let’s make it twenty years. However, this will lead to continuous trading of Beiyuan City Cave Dwellings for Scholarly Mansion quotas, so henceforth the Sect will levy a 10% transfer fee.”

Chen Mobai’s founding of the Scholarly Mansion, and selling houses, was only secondary. The main purpose was to collect cultivators with Spiritual Roots from the Eastern Wilderness for the Divine Wood Sect.

In the future, the children of wealthy families with Spirit Stones can be easily admitted into the Divine Wood Sect, while the vast majority of other students will need to have genuine qualifications and pass tests to gain a foothold in the Divine Wood Sect.

Moreover, he also planned to start a Genius Class for loose cultivators without district housing quotas but with exceptional and outstanding Spiritual Roots, giving them the chance to join the Divine Wood Sect.

Given the local customs in the Eastern Wilderness, the Genius Class would inevitably oppose the district housing students, and the district housing students would also form different stances and classes based on Rank-1 and Rank-2. With such a three-way competition, those who ultimately pass the assessments to enter the Divine Wood Sect would surely be the cream of the crop.

This strategy was no longer feasible in the world of Immortal Gates due to whistleblowers, but it was the best and most suitable education system for the Eastern Wilderness.

This ensured that the future disciples of the Divine Wood Sect would be mostly elite, and only the truly outstanding could succeed and ascend within the Sect.

As for the Rank-2 students with guaranteed admission, Chen Mobai had already planned to sustain them within the Sect.

After all, the sale of a Rank-2 Cave Dwelling for ten thousand Spirit Stones was equivalent to collecting in advance the savings of their ancestors to help build Beiyuan City for the Divine Wood Sect–this was a promise that needed to be fulfilled.

Chen Mobai understood the concept of using the money of the future for development. The biggest and strongest companies in the world of Immortal Gates were usually heavily in debt. For the construction of his Puppet factory, hadn’t most of the capital been borrowed from banks?

Now that the Puppet factory was on track and beginning to produce stable output, it would take about ten years to repay the loans he had taken out, and it would also help him earn Spirit Stones in the Eastern Wilderness every year.

As the Little Nan Mountain Shop spread throughout the entire Eastern Wilderness, Chen Mobai felt that the future income from selling talisman paper and ink might even surpass his earnings from the Divine Wood Sect.

“Sect Leader, where should we locate this Scholarly Mansion?”

No longer doubtful, E Yun excitedly asked about the most critical matter, the educational site selection.

“Bring the map.”

Chen Mobai called out, and soon a familiar old man came in, holding a map model made of clay that perfectly suited his intentions.

“Elder Lu, long time no see.”

This old man was none other than Lu Daoda, the Rank-2 Earth Master that Chen Mobai had recruited here initially. After Chen Mobai returned to the sect, Lu Daoda smoothly passed the application to become an Outer Sect Elder through Chen Mobai’s influence. Later, when E Yun came here to serve as the Town Guard, as a direct subordinate to Chen Mobai, Lu Daoda easily pledged his loyalty.

Over the years, the construction of Beiyuan City had been inseparable from the efforts of this Earth Master.

“I didn’t expect Sect Master Chen to still remember this old man.”

Upon hearing Chen Mobai’s greeting, Lu Daoda was also very excited, but he didn’t forget the matter at hand.

The map model in his hands replicated the layout of Beiyuan City according to Chen Mobai’s plans, thereby reducing it to scale. The nearby mountains and rivers were vividly presented, exquisitely detailed, allowing for immediate clarity at a glance.

“The school will receive guidance from Foundation Establishment cultivators from the sect; we can’t delay their cultivation, so it needs to be built upon a Rank-3 Spirit Vein.”

Chen Mobai first stated a requirement, to which Lu Daoda immediately took out several small flags, placing them in three spots on the map model.

“Here lies a lower-grade Rank-3 Spirit Vein, which was originally a separate courtyard belonging to the Ji family, and thirty acres of Spirit Fields have been cultivated.”

“Then there is this place on the eastern side of North Abyss Mountain, which according to the plan was going to be transformed into another Fang Market center of Beiyuan City.”

“Lastly, there is this place, which was originally a site of a small Spirit Stone Mine, but now that it has been exhausted, it could also be upgraded into a Rank-3 Spirit Vein through transformation of the land’s veins.”

After listening to Lu Daoda’s explanations, Chen Mobai considered which location would be suitable.

E Yun also leaned in, pointing to the Ji family’s vast and well-located courtyard, which was the most suitable. He didn’t want to change Beiyuan City’s existing plans, as he would rely on those Fang Market shops to earn more Spirit Stones in the future.

And regarding the Spirit Stone Mine area, upgrading that vein would require drawing from the Spirit Vein of Beiyuan City, which would damage the density of the Spiritual Energy in the Immortal City, something he was also reluctant to do.

“In that case, aren’t we going to encroach upon the Spirit Field?”

Yuan Chiye raised some objections. These Spirit Fields were planted with Spiritual Rice developed by Xiao Nanshan, yielding over ten thousand Spirit Stones in annual income for Beiyuan City.

“Selling one set of Rank-2 Cave Dwellings could almost compensate for this income. If the Sect Master agrees, let’s choose this place!”

E Yun’s tone had completely changed in recent days; solely relying on selling property, he had accumulated a million Spirit Stones and had become utterly indifferent to the meager income from farming.

“Hmm, then let’s settle on this place.”

Chen Mobai nodded in agreement without objection, as he had planned to credit this accomplishment to E Yun to pave the way for his future position as Sect Master.

“Let’s go to the site and have a look. I will redesign a set of blueprints to complement Beiyuan City based on the environmental conditions of the local veins.”

In the midst of speaking, Chen Mobai led the Divine Wood Sect’s group and flew to the plains located just a dozen miles from Beiyuan City, where Mu Yuan, Yin Qingmei, and others, under his command, quickly surveyed and clarified the conditions of the land’s foundation, water veins, and Spiritual Pivots.

Chen Mobai then took out paper and pen, and based on the classic designs from the Immortal Gates’ Daoist Academies, he crafted a set of blueprints.

“Sect Master, may I ask what this place shall be named?”

Watching Chen Mobai tirelessly produce over a dozen detailed blueprints, E Yun and the others couldn’t help but ask with awe.

“Let’s call it ‘Longevity Academy’!”
