Chapter 293.1
Enrollment (1)
After the Holy Lord’s succession ceremony, Feng Shao and Lin Xiaoran stayed in the Ziqing Sacred Land for a few more days, and they returned to Wuling City together after Tang Fei and Murong Pianpian’s wedding.
After returning to Wuling City, the couple found that Feng Lingyu and Feng Lingxue became even closer. On the other hand, he became somewhat alienated from his parents.
This is not good.
In order to avoid raising a son who is not close to her in the future, Lin Xiaoran decided to take care of the child herself in the future.
So in the following period of time, the people of the city saw that Lin Xiaoran would bring her son with her wherever she went.
When she was working, Feng Lingyu was lying on the crib that Lin Xiaoran specially placed.
When she was resting, Lin Xiaoran hugged Feng Lingyu and teased him non-stop.
Even when she was sleeping, she deliberately put her son beside her.
After Lin Xiaoran’s hard work during this time, Feng Lingyu really began to get closer to Lin Xiaoran.However, Feng Shao was a little unhappy.
Seeing his son taking all his wife’s time every day, Feng Shao couldn’t tell what it was like. He once tentatively reminded Lin Xiaoran that she had said before that she would have a daughter!
But Lin Xiaoran said angrily, “My son hasn’t been raised well yet, what do you think about my daughter? Let’s talk about my daughter when my son is older!”
Feng Shao: “…”
A woman’s mouth, a deceitful ghost! Forgetting what she said so quickly!
Feng Shao felt aggrieved in his heart, and he couldn’t help but look at his son and wife with a little sadness.
In desperation, Feng Shao could only turn his grief and anger into motivation and put his energy into work.
The current Wuling City is basically on the right track, and several important projects are gradually coming to an end. In particular, the Cultivation Academy started the first batch of enrollment work in the first month of the year.
But the admissions process was a little tricky.
Generally speaking, the traditional ways to step into the path of cultivation are generally divided into three categories, namely sects, gangs, and churches.
Among them, sects are the first choice, because compared to the other two forms, the cultivation path of a sect is more complete. From basic breathing exercises to high-rank cultivation techniques, from basic boxing martial arts to high-rank martial skills, everything that one expects to find is basically included. It provides all the cultivation resources that a person needs from starting to enter the world of cultivation until becoming a real cultivator.
Correspondingly, however, a sect has more requirements for its disciples.
Respecting the master is the most basic thing, and not leaving the master’s lineage is also a common rule in many sects.
If it is a righteous path sect, there are also regulations such as no killing of fellow sect members, no indiscriminate killing of innocent people, no r*pe and plunder, no stealing, etc.
All kinds of precepts strictly restrict the behavioral norms of sect disciples.
So some people who “love freedom” by nature choose gangs instead.
The structure of the gang is relatively loose, and the rules are relatively few.
The largest cultivation gangs in the entire upper domain only have the “five laws” when it is full of power.
This is still the rule of the gangs of the righteous path.
If it is a gang with a not so good reputation, there is only one rule of “superiority and inferiority.”
In other words, as long as they don’t make trouble, no one would basically care about what they do.
But this kind of gang generally doesn’t live long. After all, few rules mean that it is easy to cause trouble, and being easy to cause trouble means that it is easy to create a lot of enemies.
In addition, the cultivation techniques that members of a gang can obtain are also extremely limited.
The basic cultivation technique can usually only be practiced up to the Innate realm, and unless they make great achievements, they cannot get a higher-rank cultivation technique.
As for the supreme cultivation technique, only the gang leader and the successor designated by the gang leader can practice it.
Others, no matter how high their status is, only have the possibility of learning only a small portion at most.
The narrow room for advancement has become the biggest constraint for members of a gang.
Compared with this, the strict rules of a sect seem a bit irrelevant.
Therefore, the vast majority of those who join a gang dream of one day being able to become a proper disciple and enter a real sect.
As for the church, regardless of the rules and cultivation techniques they practice, they are very different from sects and gangs.
The reason why the church is called “church” is because this type of power has faith.
For example, the Tianxin Sect, the predecessor of Yunjian Pavilion, believed in “Heavenly Dao,” and its basic teaching was “to establish a heart for Heavenly Dao”, which is a bit like walking on behalf of the way of heaven.
Many congregants joined the Tianxin Sect because they yearned to act on behalf of the justice of the Heavenly Dao.
Tianxin Sect takes the faith toward Heavenly Dao as its banner and has recruited many followers. To everyone who joins the Tianxin Sect, the first thing they learn is to pray to Heavenly Dao, and the second thing they learn about is the rules of the church.
To be honest, the rules of the church are much more than that of a sect.
It’s just that a sect’s rules are mostly for the sake of the sect’s reputation, so all kinds of criminal acts are prohibited.
The rules of the church are mainly related to belief and class.
For example, don’t be disrespectful to Heavenly Dao, don’t say words life defying the heavens, don’t do things that don’t conform to Heavenly Dao’s arrangements, don’t be disrespectful to the church leader, don’t be disrespectful to the envoys and the guardians, etc.
Although there are many miscellaneous rules, the norms regarding other behaviors are relatively loose, even so loose that r*pe and robbery are not considered a violation of the rules. So most churches have a bad reputation.
Of course, this cannot be generalized. Some churches will also set up some rules like a sect, and the reputation of these churches will be better. But overall, there are relatively few such “chivalrous” churches.
We are currently recruiting. CN/KR/JP Translators/MTLers are welcome!
