What did a big family need to develop? There might be many answers, but there was one answer that would always be ranked first. That was talent.
That's right, talent! Any force valued talents more than anything else. This was because countless fierce battles had proven that as long as you had talents in your hands, then you were likely to be the final winner. This was far more useful than holding one or two mineral veins in your hands.
In Long Dingtian's opinion, Zhao Hai was a talent. He now understood Zhao Hai's situation very well. To be honest, the more he understood Zhao Hai's situation, the more he felt that Zhao Hai was a talent.
Zhao Hai's experience could be said to be legendary. He wasn't a native of the Real Spiritual World. He ascended from the lower realm and directly joined the Tyrant's Blade School as an inner disciple. The most important thing was that this kid exterminated the people of the Leaping Dragon Realm.
That was the people of a realm. This kid actually exterminated them just like that, leaving no survivors. He even displayed their corpses in the Leaping Dragon Realm as a demonstration to everyone.
Since two days ago, when he saw Zhao Hai teaching the children the breathing technique, Long Dingtian believed that Zhao Hai was a talent. Especially after today's conversation, when he learned that Zhao Hai was an alchemist and a refiner, Long Dingtian was even more convinced that Zhao Hai was a talent.
Long Dingtian knew that Zhao Hai had only entered the Real Spiritual World for a few years. However, he was now a cultivator at the Combining Soul Stage. In the Real Spiritual World, such a cultivation couldn't be considered an expert, not even a minor expert. However, there was one thing that Long Dingtian had to recognize, and that was that Zhao Hai was definitely a genius.
An all-rounded genius. If Long Dingtian couldn't rope such a person into the Tyrant's Blade School, then he didn't deserve to be the second person of the Long Family.
As for Zhao Hai's strength, Long Dingtian was not worried at all. With the talent that Zhao Hai had shown, his achievements would be immeasurable as long as he was given time.
There were many ways to rope in a talent. Roping in materials was the lowest level method. It was also the most unreliable method. Of course, it was also the simplest and fastest way to get results.
However, Long Dingtian didn't want to do that. He wanted Zhao Hai to have a sense of belonging to the Long Clan. He wanted Zhao Hai to treat the Long Clan as his own. How could a cultivator treat a clan as his own and protect it? There were many ways, and Long Dingtian was using a slow but effective method, which was to give Zhao Hai special privileges and let Zhao Hai learn the Long family's martial arts.
It goes without saying that a cultivator attaches great importance to martial arts. A good set of martial arts can allow a cultivator of the same level to completely suppress the enemy. Therefore, a cultivator's desire for good martial arts will never end.
When a cultivator learned a good set of martial arts and used it to defeat an enemy, then he would remember where he learned this set of martial arts. He would feel grateful to the place where he learned this set of martial arts.
On the other hand, Long Dingtian was a veteran of the Jianghu. He was very clear about the importance that Cultivators placed on martial arts. Because of this, he didn't try to win Zhao Hai over with money or status. Instead, he thought of another method, a method that Zhao Hai couldn't refuse, a method that Zhao Hai would always remember. And that was to have Zhao Hai learn the Long family's martial arts.
Although this decision seemed risky, Long Dingtian thought it was the safest. He knew that Zhao Hai was very grateful to the Yin-yang Elders. The Yin-yang Elders also took good care of Zhao Hai. They even moved to Zhao Hai's place. Because of this, Long Dingtian didn't think that he was taking a risk.
The Yin-yang Elders knew how powerful the Long Clan was. If Zhao Hai dared to do something bad to the Long Clan, then the Yin-yang Elders would certainly stop him. Because of this, Long Dingtian didn't think that letting Zhao Hai learn the Long Clan's martial arts was risky.
In Long Dingtian's opinion, it was worth it to take a risk for a genius like Zhao Hai. A genius like Zhao Hai was worth anyone taking a risk for.
Of course, there was another important point. Long Dingtian arranged a position for Zhao Hai. Teaching the children of the Long Clan was equivalent to letting Zhao Hai accept disciples. Cultivators valued inheritance. If Zhao Hai taught the children of the Long Clan, then he would be their teacher. When these children grow up, Zhao Hai would be happy. His sense of belonging to the Long Clan would increase.
Long Dingtian saw that Zhao Hai didn't speak for a long time. He couldn't help but ask, "How about it? Do you agree with my suggestion? "
Zhao Hai looked at Long Dingtian. Although he didn't know what kind of person Long Dingtian was, to be honest, the conditions that Long Dingtian gave him were already very good.
Moreover, Long Dingtian made it clear that Zhao Hai's future focus would be on the Tyrant's Saber School. In this case, Long Dingtian still gave him the privilege of learning the Long Clan's martial arts. This showed that Long Dingtian really valued him.
After thinking about this, Zhao Hai nodded and said, "I agree. I'll listen to Old Man's arrangement."
Long Dingtian nodded with satisfaction and said, "Alright, Kid. Now that we're done talking, let's drink. I can drink to my heart's content with you, but no one else can."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly. Then he clinked his cup with Long Dingtian's and drank the wine in one gulp. The two drank very happily today.
That night, Chen Feng returned to the small courtyard after Long Dingtian left. When he saw Zhao Hai sitting in the courtyard, he couldn't help but ask, "Brother Zhao, who is that old man? How did you two meet? "
He's the Patriarch's younger brother, Long Dingtian. The last time I went out for a stroll, I met some children in the city and taught them some tricks. As a result, he saw me, so he wanted me to join the Long family. I also agreed. Today, he came here to discuss the matter of joining the Long family. "Zhao Hai smiled and said," That person's identity is extraordinary. He's Long Dingtian.
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, Chen Feng couldn't help but stare. Then his expression changed. He looked at Zhao Hai and said with a trembling voice, "You're saying that the old man just now was Long Dingtian?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Yes, he was indeed Long Dingtian. What's wrong?"
Chen Feng was speechless as he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "What's wrong? Brother Zhao, I really don't know what to say about you. In any case, you just joined the Long Family, so you don't know about the family's situation. The Long Family's Patriarch has the final say. Although there are some Elders, none of them would dare to go against the Patriarch's words. This is because the Patriarch isn't only strong, he also has a large number of people supporting him. It can be said that he has the highest authority in the Long Family. The one who has the best relationship with the Patriarch is the Patriarch's younger brother, Long Dingtian. However, Long Dingtian doesn't have any position of power, he prefers to train the Long Family's disciples.
Zhao Hai nodded. From the moment he saw Long Dingtian, Zhao Hai already knew what Long Dingtian did. If Long Dingtian didn't specialize in this matter, then it would be impossible for him to notice Zhao Hai.
Chen Feng looked at Zhao Hai and said, "There's a saying in the Long Clan. You only see the Patriarch once a year, but the Patriarch might not remember you. But even if you see Long Dingtian once every five years, as long as you make him remember you, then you won't be far from soaring. From this point, you can see how high Long Dingtian's status is in the Long Clan. A lot of people in the Long Clan were recommended by Long Dingtian to the Patriarch. At the same time, the Patriarch also trusts the people recommended by Long Dingtian. It can be said that although Long Dingtian doesn't hold any position in the Long Clan, he is still one of the most powerful people in the Long Clan. This is because there are too many people who have been promoted by him."
Zhao Hai stared. He didn't think that this ordinary looking old man would have such a high status in the Long Clan. No wonder he dared to talk to the Patriarch like that.
Chen Feng looked at Zhao Hai with envy and said, "Kid, you're going to be rich. Now that you've caught the eye of Elder Long Dingtian, it would be hard for you to not be rich in the Long Clan. If there's an opportunity in the future, you have to take care of me."
When Zhao Hai heard Chen Feng, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Forget it, there's no need to take care of you. You don't know this, but Long Dingtian wants me to stay in the Long Family and teach the children martial arts. This is a position without any authority, how can I help you?"
When Chen Feng heard Zhao Hai, his eyes lit up. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Brother Zhao, are you really going to be the teacher of the Long Clan's children? This is a good thing. "
Chen Feng's words made Zhao Hai stare. Zhao Hai still hasn't said anything about his privilege to learn martial arts. Why did Chen Feng say that this position was a good thing?
Chen Feng looked at Zhao Hai's puzzled expression and smiled faintly, "You have to teach the children of the Long Clan well. They are the future of the Long Clan. It won't take long for them to grow up. When they grow up, they will become the backbone of the Long Clan. And you will be their teacher. When that time comes, your status won't be low. You can use these connections to establish your own family. As long as you have the support of the Long Clan, wouldn't it be easy for you to establish your own family? "
Zhao Hai stared, he didn't think that Chen Feng would say this. However, there was nothing wrong with Chen Feng's words. They were all Cultivators. If Zhao Hai gets along well with the children of the Long Clan, then when they reach a high position in the future, they wouldn't forget about him. When that time comes, his status in the Long Clan would naturally rise.
To be honest, Zhao Hai didn't really care about these things. He was more concerned about his own strength. However, the Long Clan's situation was a bit special. Zhao Hai still didn't know how strong the Long Clan was. But looking at the Yin Yang Elders, it was clear that the Long Clan was very strong. But why hadn't he heard of such a family before? Even when he asked the Yin Yang Elders, they didn't seem to want to tell him. This made Zhao Hai feel even more strange.
Because of this, Zhao Hai wanted to know more about the Long Clan. He wanted to know what kind of existence the Long Clan was and why the Yin Yang Elders cared so much about them.
