At the court, only fourth-grade and above officials, both civil and military, could receive divine enfeoffment. The rest could only attain Qi Yun. Titles were granted through official seals.
Since the nobles were fewer in number, all dukes and marquis received enfeoffment. Although they had divine position records, they did not have subordinate divine positions. Only those with real positions could receive subordinate divine assistance.
The situation was similar for relatives. Depending on the nobles’ ranks, only princes, dukes, and their heirs and grandsons could have divine positions.
Of course, the most surprising part was the so-called passing on to wives and children. The rightful wives and eldest sons of all fourth-grade or above officials, dukes, and marquis enjoyed protection, but no one else did.
According to the emperor’s wishes, this divine investiture was the first of many. With the continued growth and imposing Qi Yun of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty, divine investiture would occur periodically like the imperial examination, and the required rank for obtaining divine investiture would gradually decrease.
The divine investitures given to Pei Xuanjing’s group were not as grand and one could even say they were rudimentary.
Once the negotiations were complete, Pei Xuanjing merely created Divine Position Seeds in accordance with the negotiated number of divine positions, handed them over, and then washed his hands of the matter.
Once the divine investiture was over and the gods had returned to their places, even the Qi Yun increased instead of decreasing as the divine positions of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty became slightly fulfilled.
However, just when the world hadn’t recovered from these important events, Pei Xuanjing, the Master of the Great Ming and now the world’s number one, announced news that shocked the world and drove countless martial artists crazy.
” I, Pei Xuanjing, will establish a Taoist Academy. All aspiring martial artists may apply. Those selected to join the academy will be able to practice any skill within the academy, receive instruction from famous teachers, and even receive guidance from me. If one is qualified, one may cultivate my “Shenxiao Heaven’s Will Skill.”
After this news spread, it immediately stirred up the already bustling Great Ming Divine Dynasty, like throwing water into boiling oil.
Who is Pei Xuanjing? He is the Master of the Great Ming, the leader of Shenxiao Sect, a powerful figure at the Spirit Realm Sixth Level, and today’s number one in the world.
His “Shenxiao Heaven’s Will Skill” has long been known to the world’s martial artists and is considered the top divine skill in today’s world.
Every year because of this reputation, countless people hope to join the Shenxiao Sect and receive Pei Xuanjing’s guidance, hoping to become his disciple, but no one has ever succeeded.
Over the years, Pei Xuanjing has only had two disciples, one is the main disciple, now the Deputy Leader of Shenxiao Sect – Pang Hong, the other is a nominal disciple, who is now the Emperor of the Great Ming Divine Dynasty.
Now, upon hearing that he’s establishing a Taoist Academy – a place where anyone of respectable origin can cultivate, practice any skill, and receive guidance from esteemed teachers – this undoubtedly drives the world’s martial artists mad.
According to the information leaked, the Taoist Academy will consist of an internal and external institution, not to mention the internal institution where future strong practitioners in the Spirit Realm will reside.
The external institution will have three divisions, each corresponding to the lower, middle, and upper realms of martial arts. At the opening of the academy, the number of disciples recruited will be minimal, with a thousand for the lower realm, five hundred for the middle realm, and a hundred for the higher realm.
Despite this, the news still attracted countless martial artists. With such an opportunity before them, everyone wanted to take a gamble, as it might change their lives.
On that day, countless martial artists flooded towards Tiandu, nearly bursting the city.
“Is he lightly bestowing others with these skill books which are the foundation of our sect?” Xue Hanyi asked in surprise.
When he heard this news, he was stunned. He didn’t understand what Pei Xuanjing was trying to do. It seemed like a radical move.
For any religious sect, the skill books are considered more important than life; they are the basis of their heritage, the flame that keeps their heritage alive.
Even in a country like the Xue ancient country, when passing on a skill, selection was done carefully, and only those with merits had a chance of learning.
He didn’t understand Pei Xuanjing’s actions. Even if he wanted to establish a Taoist Academy, he could understand. But why would he pass on his skills so lightly?
In the Sky Wasteland, every cultivator keeps his cultivation methods a secret. Sometimes, even between master and disciple, and close relatives, there isn’t the slightest leak. The method of cultivation is a fundamental principle, not to be peeped at by anyone.
But now Pei Xuanjing is doing this, isn’t he afraid that his own fundamental skill will be known, and people will find faults, leading to his fall?
Xue Hanyi just couldn’t understand this.
By his side, Mu Binghua’s eyes flashed with various colors. She too was not certain what Pei Xuanjing was trying to do.
She looked up sharply and turned to Mr. Wu: “What do you think of Master Pei’s actions, Mr. Wu?”.
Mr. Wu had interacted with Pei Xuanjing a lot recently and should be able to understand his intentions.
Mr. Wu just smiled lightly: “Master Pei’s vision is outstanding, his actions are beyond my comprehension.”
Clearly, he didn’t want to answer this question, and he had no intention of answering these two.
Although Mr. Wu had a rough idea of Pei Xuanjing’s intentions, he didn’t intend to tell these people anything at all.
Because it didn’t make sense to.
The Witch Deity Teaching has a long history, and the wise men who managed to preach to the world like Pei Xuanjing, recorded in the Witch Deity Teaching records are all saintly figures. Only such a benevolent person, who harbors the world in their hearts, could do such things as not being private with their skills and willing to give their knowledge to the world.
However, most of these sage figures appeared in ancient times, with the decline of a hundred families after pre-Qin times, such wise men rarely emerged. Even those who survived the great disaster of the Tang Dynasty, many didn’t have such impressions, let alone the younger generation who grew up in the Tianhuang region?
Even if he told them, these people, who have been deeply influenced by the current situation, would find it hard to believe.
Pei Xuanjing didn’t pay attention to any of these things; he was currently instructing Deng Zhong.
“After weighing up the options for the location of the Taoist Academy, I still think that outside of Tiandu is the most suitable option. I’ve already discussed this with the emperor. Your next task is to collaborate with the Capital Camp in selecting disciples. Make sure to strictly follow the rules we have set and not overlook any details,” said Pei Xuanjing.
“I’ll carry out your orders,” Deng Zhong responded respectfully.
Pei Xuanjing nodded. This selection was of great significance, and a careless mistake could prove counterproductive.
