Chapter 202: Chapter 198: Dream

This time, as Elder Xu traveled the world, he was always pondering one question: why had the noble families of Longzhou become so arrogant, while those of Yuanzhou had not?

Moreover, from his recent observations, the average level of martial artists in Yuanzhou was noticeably higher than that of Longzhou’s. This discrepancy was not likely due to differences in people’s natural abilities, but rather, was primarily affected by the chosen sacred grounds.

Martial Saint Mountain was a revered sacred place removed from worldly concerns. Even though it was located in Longzhou, no matter what transformations Longzhou underwent, they would remain largely indifferent. Even if wars broke out and the people suffered, given the martial mama of those on Martial Saint Mountain, as long as they weren’t provoked, they would turn a blind eye and deaf ear to everything.

On the other hand, the Xu Family was a worldly sacred place that governed over a dozen cities. These cities weren’t seized by force, but were built from scratch by the Xu Clan. However, managing so many cities inevitably meant dealing with bandits and fierce rogues, as well as disputes over resources. For the sake of efficiency, the Xu Clan established three sacred armies.

The existence of the Xu Clan incited both fear and awe in the noble families of Yuanzhou. Because the sacred ground was so dominant right before their eyes, they couldn’t help but wonder, if one day the sacred ground decided to wage war, how they could protect themselves?

Only when people faced threats and fears did they find the motivation to progress. Hence, each and every influential family in Yuanzhou took the Xu Clan as their goal to catch up with, and constantly sought to validate their learning through challenges.

It was precisely because of this pursuit of excellence that, over time, the noble families of Yuanzhou had become so tough.

But the people of Longzhou were different. The Martial Saint Mountain was aloof from worldly concerns. As the strongest force in the local area, these families had no goals, nor did they hold any fear. In their eyes, only they themselves could defeat themselves. This kind of arrogance wasn’t necessarily wrong, but it could hinder progress and lead to the loss of a respectful heart.

Such a detached sacred ground like the Martial Saint Mountain certainly didn’t require the respect of worldly people, but it also inadvertently prevented the development of martial arts in Longzhou.

Therefore, on this journey around the world, Elder Xu not only intended to establish the reputation of the Xu Clan, but also to instill a sense of crisis in these martial artists, showing them the stark reality of their deficiencies. This was his way of fulfilling the sacred way of the Xu Clan.

How can someone who is self-satisfied and unwilling to make progress regain their ambition?
