Yun Tianyi's words let everyone know that the main point of this Dividing Mountain Dividing Grand Meet was to break the previous rules and set new rules.
In fact, before the Dividing Mountain Dividing Grand Meet began, many people had already guessed that the Dividing Mountain Dividing Grand Meet would have another important function, which was to set new rules.
With the arrival of a new era, the younger generation of cultivators would rise to the top. As a result, the rules set by the older generation of cultivators could no longer be followed, because the younger generation would definitely have to set their own rules.
Sure enough, Yun Tianyi's words clearly indicated this. Due to the fact that the younger generation was in power, they had the ability to set new rules. Therefore, Yun Tianyi bluntly stated that the previous rules were no longer applicable.
Moreover, what was even more unexpected was that after hearing Yun Tianyi's words, none of the people present actually objected. This also proved that the other monstrous geniuses also agreed with Yun Tianyi's words.
Even Xiao Xiao, who was at loggerheads with Yun Tianyi earlier, chose to remain silent this time and did not object.
Seeing that no one objected, Yun Tianyi revealed a faint smile and paused for a moment before he said loudly.
"Everyone knows that there are 108 prefectures in the Great Thousand World. However, I feel that since it's a new era, it's obviously not appropriate to divide them like this. There needs to be some changes. Therefore, I suggest that we divide the 108 prefectures into 10 prefectures, and each prefecture will be ruled by a Ling Tian Sect."
Yun Tianyi proposed the 10 prefectures, establishing 10 prefectures above the 108 prefectures. The division of the 10 prefectures would coincide with the 10 great Ling Tian Sects, and each Ling Tian Sect would rule over a prefecture.
Upon hearing Yun Tianyi's words, everyone's expression changed, including Dao Jue and the others.
This was because Yun Tianyi's suggestion would undoubtedly bring unimaginable shock and chaos to the Great Thousand World.
Thinking about it, redividing the sphere of influence of the 10 great Ling Tian Sects and setting up 10 prefectures, it could be said that the distribution of resources would be redone.
Once cultivation resources were involved, not only the 10 great Ling Tian Sects, but even the forces below them would definitely erupt into conflict. In that case, the entire Great Thousand World would be in complete chaos.
However, no one had a reason to reject Yun Tianyi's suggestion because it would definitely be beneficial to the 10 great Ling Tian Sects. Of course, this did not include the Sword Sect.
This was because although the Sword seemed to be on equal footing with the 10 great Ling Tian Sects, it still had not been recognized by Tenzu's recognition. Hence, it was still not considered as a true Ling Tian Sect.
Moreover, if the Sword Sect wanted to be ranked among the Ling Tian Sects again, it would have to defeat an established Ling Tian Sect. This was also a rule that could not be changed.
Some rules could be broken, but some rules could not be broken. Therefore, Yun Tianyi's suggestion was actually the most unfriendly to the Sword Sect. This was because the Sword Sect would not be able to get any benefits at all. Moreover, they would have to survive within the sphere of influence of one of the Ling Tian Sects like a subsidiary force. This was obviously something that Xiao Chen and the entire Sword Sect did not want to see.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Tianyi glanced at everyone who had different expressions on their faces before his gaze finally landed on Dao Jue and the other prodigies.
"What do all of you think?"
Yun Tianyi asked. However, Xiao Xiao was the first to speak. "Why are there 10 prefectures instead of 11? How can the Sword Sect be divided in this way?"
Xiao Xiao was the first to speak up for Xiao Chen. This was because Yun Tianyi's suggestion was clearly disregarding the Sword Sect. It was as if he did not take the Sword Sect seriously at all.
In the face of Xiao Xiao's question, Yun Tianyi merely smirked and glanced at Xiao Chen before he said nonchalantly.
"What about the Sword Sect? Sect Leader Xiao, are you crazy? Do you really think the Sword Sect is qualified to be on equal footing with us, the 10 great Ling Tian Sects? I'm usually too lazy to be calculative with them, but it doesn't mean the Sword Sect is on equal footing with us. Since it's about dividing the land into 10 prefectures, what does it have to do with the Sword Sect? "
Yun Tianyi didn't think the Sword Sect was on equal footing with them, the 10 great Ling Tian Sects. Therefore, they naturally weren't qualified to participate in the division of the land with them.
Upon hearing Yun Tianyi's words, Yang Chen also said nonchalantly. "Indeed, the 10 great Ling Tian Sects aren't something that any Tom, Dick, and Harry can compare to."
"You …" Xiao Xiao's face turned cold when she heard Yun Tianyi and Yang Chen's words. Just as she was about to scold them, she was held back by Xiao Chen.
After stopping Xiao Xiao, Xiao Chen said something that no one expected.
It was apparent that Yun Tianyi was targeting and looking down on him. However, Xiao Chen wasn't bothered at all. Instead, he said with a faint smile, "It doesn't matter.
"It doesn't matter, the ten prefectures it is, Swords Gate will not participate in it."
Xiao Chen actually took the initiative to withdraw. Xiao Xiao was taken aback. Then, she looked at Xiao Chen in confusion and asked, "Junior Brother, what are you doing?"
Initially, Xiao Xiao wanted to fight for Xiao Chen with all her might. However, who would have thought that Xiao Chen would give up so easily without any hesitation?
Could it be that Xiao Chen really didn't care about the division of the land? One had to know that if that was the case, then Swords Gate would have lost too much.
In the face of Xiao Xiao's dissatisfaction and doubt, Xiao Chen chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter. Anyway, even if the land is divided into ten prefectures, we still need to be able to defend it. When the time comes, we'll just replace them."
As Xiao Chen spoke, he intentionally glanced at Yang Chen who was standing nearby. When everyone heard Xiao Chen's words, they seemed to have understood something. They Dao Jue smiled excitedly as though they were saying, 'There's going to be a good show to watch.'
Xiao Chen took the initiative to give up on the competition for the land of the ten prefectures not because he was afraid of the ten great Ling Tian Sects, but because Xiao Chen felt that instead of wasting his efforts here, he might as well snatch the land when the time came.
To put it bluntly, in Xiao Chen's opinion, the Heavenly Sect was merely representing the Sword Sect in the division of the ten prefectures. When the time came for the division of the land of the ten prefectures, the Sword Sect would just replace them.
As long as they defeated the Heavenly Sect, the land of the Heavenly Sect would still belong to the Sword Sect. Therefore, there was no need to waste their energy on these matters.
At this moment, Xiao Chen displayed great confidence. His confidence and arrogance made it seem as though he regarded the Heavenly Sect as a pile of bones in a grave. All the prodigies present could not help but look at Xiao Chen in a new light, especially Dan Xin and the others who came into contact with Xiao Chen for the first time.
