249: Chapter 249 Family Reform

Inside Lingxiu Mountain!

As Qin Xiao emerged from seclusion, his concubines also came out one after another, surrounding him!

Over these past few years, with his supply of resources, many Martial Artists of the Yin Yang Realm had appeared within his Family!

There were even a few Martial Artists who had reached the Return to One Realm!

Yang Qingwu, Miao Yiren, Bai Suzhen, Duānmù Fèngdié, and others had all made a Breakthrough to the Return to One Realm!

Furthermore, within his Bronze Ancient Hall, Shen Xuerou, Huo Wu, Leng Qingxue, Green Xuan, Yue Chenxin, Xia Zhining, and others, with his support,

had also reached the Return to One Realm!

The talent of the women within the Bronze Ancient Hall was far superior to that of the women he had outside!

Except for the few with comparable talent like Yang Qingwu, Chu Qingyue, and Jing Qianyu, the rest were a level below.

Among all his women, the ones with the best talent were Yang Qingwu and Ye Qingqing!

Ye Qingqing was now at the Peak of the Yin Yang Realm; she was just a step away from a Breakthrough to the Return to One Realm!

One must know that she was only around twenty-one or twenty-two years old and had already reached this Realm. Although she had the support of Qin Xiao's resources, it was still terrifying!

In these few years, his Qin Family had also developed rapidly, and many members of the clan had reached the Yin Yang Realm.

Even a portion of his grandsons had reached the Yin Yang Realm, while the rest were at the Magic Power Realm!

Furthermore, his grandsons and clan members had begun to reproduce, bringing many newborns into the world!

The Cultivation environment of the Qin Residence was excellent, and the Cultivation resources were top-tier throughout the entire Qing Province.

All of the descendants of the Qin Residence basically had no worries.

However, this was not good, as many slackers had appeared within the Family.

They discovered that even if they just lay flat, they could still receive a large amount of Cultivation resources, so they were not enthusiastic about Cultivation.

Qin Xiao felt that this atmosphere was very bad. His descendants were not striving to improve and were wasting resources; surely this was not a good thing?

Therefore, Qin Xiao pondered for a while and came up with a solution.

The Qin Residence had two lists: one was the core training list, which currently had fewer people, and the other was the priority training list, which had more people.

Previously, Qin Xiao provided benefits according to these two lists, and the level of training was quite high.

However, the two training lists lacked competitiveness; as long as one met the corresponding conditions, they could be selected and receive a significant amount of resources.

This led to the birth of many slackers within the Family.

Not only that, but his maids were the same; many were just muddling along, taking resources without working hard to Cultivate!

If this continued, it would result in the waste of resources; no matter how many resources there were, they could not withstand such squandering!

Therefore, Qin Xiao intended to introduce a competitive mechanism. He would only give them basic Cultivation resources, and subsequently, rewards would be given based on Cultivation progress, talent bonuses, and meritorious performance!

He would also initiate a bottom-tier elimination system; those who made the least progress would be punished, at which point they would lose their corresponding status, position, privileges, resources, and so on.

Furthermore, the supply of various resources and the level of training would be significantly reduced.

The environment he had provided for the Family in the past was simply too comfortable!

It had resulted in the Family raising a bunch of sheep with no ferocity; this would not do!

Therefore, Qin Xiao decided that from now on, he would send Family descendants who reached certain conditions out to gain experience, allowing them to grow rapidly!

Although this would cause some injuries and deaths, there was no other way; how could the world of Martial Artists be without danger?

Another thing was that he intended to build a Trial Tower within the Family.

The Trial Tower had seventy levels, corresponding to seven major Realms, and was used to hone and train the descendants of the Qin Family. Qin Xiao also specially created many leaderboards to serve as records.

According to the rules, when entering the Trial Tower, they would all start from the first level and trial their way upward.

Reaching a level equivalent to one's own Cultivation was considered passing; breaking through one level higher was considered excellent; breaking through two levels higher was considered a Genius; and breaking through three levels higher was considered a Prodigy!

Depending on the number of levels they cleared, the Family would provide corresponding rewards and training!

Furthermore, to prevent cheating, Qin Xiao also established some rules: the weapons used could not exceed their own major Realm, one could not use one-time explosive Magical Artifacts, and so on.

Most importantly, his maids and clan members were trained separately, and the direction of their training was also different!

The maids' duty was to serve him; only those who pleased him, had talent, had training value, and had ability would he pour resources into!

As for his Qin Family, the current clan members were still relatively few, only a few hundred people, not even as many as his maids!

However, he still had to make good plans and set the tone for training, as this was conducive to the healthy development of the Family!

Qin Xiao's current plan was to first make some reforms, observe the effects, and then continuously improve and adjust the development direction of the Family.

Soon, Qin Xiao was in the Patriarch's Hall!

He summoned some important figures of the Qin Family—his sons, grandsons, clan Elders, the head maid, and his concubines—to announce this important decision.

Immediately, it caused a huge stir!

Qin Xiao's words caused a huge uproar in the minds of these people.

Previously, the Family's training for them had been very lenient; as long as one was a descendant of the Qin Family, they could obtain a certain amount of resources to support their Cultivation!

But now, resources had become scarce; if one wanted to obtain more training, they had to work hard at their Cultivation, and if their talent was poor, the resources they obtained would also decrease!

Most resources would be poured into those who had good talent and were striving to improve!

Everyone looked at Qin Xiao, who was sitting high on his throne, opening their mouths but not knowing what to say.

Qin Xiao's authority in the Qin Family was extremely heavy; no one dared to refute his decision, and everyone present was the same.

"I will not say anything superfluous; the Qin Family's resources are not infinite. From now on, they will be supplied to those who have good talent, are striving to improve, and make contributions to the Family."

"Those who are occupying positions without doing work, have no desire to improve, or lack ability should step down themselves and leave the resources and benefits to others.

At the same time, you must expand the Family's business to obtain more resources for the Family. Right now, I am supporting the entire Family, and the Family lacks its own pillar industries; this is a very serious problem.

From now on, you must expand the Family's industries to acquire more assets and profits for the Family."

Qin Xiao's words rang out in the hall, echoing like thunder, causing everyone's expressions to become serious, and they all nodded.

Their current situation was indeed like this; within the entire Family, there were basically no industries, and most were huddled on Lingxiu Mountain, surviving on the resources provided by Qin Xiao!

For a Family, this was unimaginable; after all, for a Family to develop, it needed income.

That is to say, it must have its own industries!

Moreover, they knew deeply that since Qin Xiao had made such a decision, it would not be changed; they only needed to execute it accordingly.

That day, Qin Xiao's decision spread throughout the entire Lingxiu Mountain.

Some of the Qin Family's Guest Elders and guards just watched the excitement; this did not involve them, as they had their own separate system.

However, the Qin Family members were all shocked; judging from this series of reforms,

the old Patriarch was dissatisfied with their recent attitude toward Cultivation!

That was why he adopted this method, aiming to force them to change; if they did not change, they would be eliminated.

A few people with vested interests were naturally very dissatisfied, but this was an inevitable trend that no one could change.

Since they could not change the old Patriarch's decision, they could only change themselves.

Otherwise, they would be abandoned by the Family and become the lowest-ranking people.
