My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!-Chapter 483 - 330: Rushing to Each Other
Last time, to organize the Martial Arts Tournament, Li Nuo put in a lot of effort.
First, he painstakingly got the court's approval, then had his mother-in-law travel a thousand miles to persuade the Sanqing Sect, so that Daxia's top sect would take the lead. He himself wrote letters to each sect, sending tokens and clothes, trying every possible way to gain their favor and participation.
It took several months in total.
This time, it was much simpler.
Last time he was the one asking for help, but this time it was they who needed him.
Martial artists value loyalty, and when Li Nuo helped them improve their cultivation techniques without charging any fees, none of the sects refused when he asked for a small favor.
Because there were too many sects needing their cultivation techniques improved, Li Nuo couldn't complete it in a short time, so they had to wait until the Martial Arts Tournament ended to receive the improved techniques.
Therefore, they couldn't leave in the short term.
During this period, Li Nuo had the Sixth Princess arrange for them to stay in the capital of the Zhao Country.
With the Sixth Princess involved, the court of Zhao Country did not object and easily approved it. ƒгeewebnovёl.com
After all, the same thing had already been successfully done in Daxia, and the cooperation between the court and martial arts sects indeed played a significant role in maintaining regional stability, as proven in Daxia.
The court quickly arranged everything for them.
With these people gathered in the capital, the one who benefited the most was Yiren.
She no longer lacked training partners.
Having grandmasters and fourth realm peak experts, just a step away from becoming grandmasters, as training partners is something even top sects like the Sanqing Sect or the Heavenly Sword Sect couldn't achieve.
As more martial artists gathered in the capital, both Yiren and Li Nuo started gaining new insights every day, and miraculously, Li Nuo himself broke through to the Inner Breath Realm.
Capital of the Zhao Country, old site of the Four Directions Hall.
For easier management, a year ago, the court moved the Four Directions Hall next to the Honglu Si, and the original site was planned to be demolished and rebuilt as a garden.
The Martial Arts Tournament's organization made the court temporarily cancel this plan, though they tidied up and renovated the site slightly to use it as the venue for the tournament, changing the plaque at the entrance to "Martial Arts Village."
The strong practitioners participating in this tournament had actually just finished participating in the one organized by the Heavenly Sword Sect.
However, since they needed help with their sect's cultivation methods, they couldn't refuse.
Fortunately, the court treated these martial artists with importance, taking care of their food and accommodation and preparing everything needed for the tournament.
Additionally, each grandmaster was issued an identity token by the court.
This token granted certain privileges, such as not having to kneel before officials, free accommodation at inns across the country, and the ability to impeach and advise local officials, giving them a lot of respect.
The only thing they found uncomfortable was the strict regulations, such as getting arrested for spitting on the ground. During the tournament, wasting food, being late to matches, not saluting opponents, drinking alcohol, and private fighting all resulted in confinement for reflection.
Despite their caution, they still somehow violated a rule here and there.
Though they didn't like these rules, they could only endure them.
They had no choice but to endure, as their improved cultivation techniques were still in Li Nuo's hands, and they couldn't leave until they received them.
These rules applied equally to everyone, whether it was an ordinary disciple or a sect leader, everyone who made a mistake had to be punished.
Initially, it felt humiliating, but as more people were punished, it no longer felt like a big deal...
Regarding the Martial Arts Tournament, they actually weren't very interested.
At the Heavenly Sword Sect, they had already sparred with their fellow martial artists.
However, they were quite eager to be training partners for that exceptionally talented girl.
Despite her young age, not only was her strength extremely high, her swordsmanship was also astonishing.
Every time they sparred with her, they gained some insights.
The benefits of sparring with her were even greater than sparring with grandmasters at the same level.
However, there were too many people wanting to be her training partners, and they had to wait three days for their turn...
Princess Mansion.
Li Nuo learned from Zhao Zhiyi that the martial arts sects had already reached a series of agreements with the court to maintain regional stability and promote harmony.
The court officially recognized these major sects and granted them certain privileges.
This helped boost their prestige, enhance their status in the martial arts world, and expand their influence among smaller sects.
Meanwhile, the court would also provide them with some protection.
When disputes arose between sects, the court could mediate and, if necessary, provide military protection.
Incidents of sects annexing each other or even destroying entire sects due to personal grudges happened occasionally.
Previously, the court did not intervene in such matters.
But if the court wanted to intervene, it could easily suppress any martial arts force.
At the same time, these martial arts sects should bear some social responsibility.
They had to discipline their disciples to prevent them from using their martial skills to break laws, commit crimes, and they also had to help the court maintain local stability, contributing to a more stable, peaceful, and just society.
For both the court and the martial arts world, this was a win-win situation.
Daxia had already done this, and it just needed to be replicated in the Zhao Country.
The challenge wasn't in making it happen, but finding the opportunity.
There had to be someone to act as a bridge between the court and the martial arts world, and in Daxia, Li Nuo alone could accomplish that.
