The Martial Unity

Ajanta Island was far more lucrative than the Floating Sect made out of it. Because the Floating Sect disregarded monetary goals when it occupied and developed Ajanta Island, it did not earn much.

It had instead put a lot of weight on creating an environment that could attract even the most powerful of Martial Squires, and give them a reason to stay committed to the island even in the event of the war.

Rui had long realized that the sheer quality of the free training chambers and their ability to luxuriously accommodate all ranges, and also train all kinds of techniques and attributes relevant to combat was meant to strongly incentivize guardians to stay and continue training.

And it seemed to have worked well.

After all, the tensions between the Floating Sect and the nations of the Kaddar Region were perenially extremely high, their relationship was hostile beyond diplomacy. Yet these guardians stayed in the Floating Sect despite the prospect of war not being too unlikely.

The Kaddar Region wouldn't need to employ such a strategy, thus it could make smaller chambers simply for engaging in basic training under the circumstances of the island's environment for a fee.

That alone would generate an enormous market and would attract Martial Squires from all over as long as they publicized it well. It could effectively become like what the Uminana Trench was for the coastal nations of the ocean.

('In fact, they're actually quite similar,') Rui realized.

The Uminana Trench and Ajanta Island were both existential threats to civilization in their respective surroundings, yet humans profited off them nonetheless.

Rui shook his head, dispelling such thoughts. Regardless of what their motivations were, it didn't matter.
