The Tiger Path and Jie Yiming left, but they chose to believe in Zhao Hai. They went back to prepare. In fact, they had never trusted Zhao Hai as much as they did now.
In the past, Zhao Hai needed to give a lot of reasons to convince them. But this time, they completely believed in Zhao Hai. This was because Zhao Hai's attitude was indifferent. Regardless of whether they believed him or not, Zhao Hai would still do it. It was precisely because of this attitude that they chose to believe in Zhao Hai, completely believing in Zhao Hai.
This might sound strange. They clearly didn't need to believe in Zhao Hai. They knew that Zhao Hai didn't care whether they believed in him or not. Compared to before, Zhao Hai's attitude wasn't as good this time. But now, they believed in Zhao Hai more than ever.
Sometimes, people were just so strange. You could have trusted the other party, but you didn't want to. You could have not trusted the other party, but you chose to. It was just so strange.
After sending the two away, Zhao Hai began to reorganize the entire Sea Exploring Sect. He gave up on the Monks Sect in Mang Mountain City. This was because there was no longer a need for the Monks Sect to exist. He also obtained the Iron Buddha Temple's territory. Although he had to give up a lot of territory, the Iron Buddha Temple's territory was still very big. Zhao Hai needed to guard this territory well. As for the Monks Sect, he didn't care about it.
However, this didn't mean that they had given up on the people of the Monks Sect. In fact, he had taken all the people of the Monks Sect into the Sea Exploring Sect. This was a pleasant surprise for the people of the Monks Sect.
They thought that they would be cultivators of a small sect in the Monks Gathering Sect. If they were lucky, they might even go to the Iron Buddha Temple to study. However, they didn't expect that they would become cultivators of the Sea Exploring Sect. They had heard of the Sea Exploring Sect. Although it wasn't the top sect in the Sword Spirit Boundary, it was still the most famous sect in the Sword Spirit Boundary. Therefore, they wanted to join the Sea Exploring Sect.
These people who joined the Sea Exploring Sect naturally included Long Dingtian. Although Long Dingtian was in the Iron Buddha Temple, he was only an outer disciple. Naturally, he didn't have the opportunity to participate in the battle. However, he was able to see Zhao Hai's strength, which made him admire Zhao Hai even more.
In addition to the Monks Gathering Sect, Zhao Hai also took in some rogue cultivators. The strength of the Sea Exploring Sect increased once again. However, there were still very few experts. It could be said that the Sea Exploring Sect was only a mid-tier sect. If it wasn't for Zhao Hai, they wouldn't even be considered a mid-tier sect.
However, Zhao Hai wasn't in a hurry. Cultivation wasn't something that could be done in a day or two. The Sea Exploring Sect didn't lack materials or inheritances. Moreover, Zhao Hai carried out a very systematic aptitude evaluation in the sect. As long as one's aptitude was evaluated, they would know what cultivation method was suitable for them. At that time, they would be given the right cultivation method, pills, and opportunities to train. Their cultivation speed would naturally become faster.
Even those who didn't have much aptitude could cultivate physique cultivation methods. The Iron Buddha Lotus Physique, the Power King Godly Art, and the Snake Fist were all top-notch physique cultivation methods. The Sea Exploring School had all of them.
Moreover, Zhao Hai deliberately made the Sea Exploring Sect low-key. Aside from trading in the free trade zone, the disciples of the Sea Exploring Sect rarely went out for training. Even if they went out for training, they had to act as a group. If the sect arranged for them to be protected and guarded, they wouldn't be allowed to act on their own.
Of course, this didn't mean that they weren't allowed to act on their own. That was absolutely impossible. The Sea Exploring Sect would still give out missions. There were all kinds of missions. Some were difficult, some were easy, and some were difficult. There were missions that the disciples of different levels had to complete. Therefore, the disciples would still go out to do missions. However, they had to keep a low profile. They would rather not complete the mission than to get into trouble.
Just like Zhao Hai said, the entire Sea Exploring Sect went silent and kept a low profile. Outsiders couldn't hear any news about the Sea Exploring Sect. This caused the sects in the Sword Spirit Realm to be stunned. Although they knew that the Sea Exploring Sect was there, the Sea Exploring Sect seemed to have disappeared from their line of sight. It was as if the Sea Exploring Sect had suddenly turned invisible. This made everyone feel strange.
But as people said, the attention of the great sects was now focused on the ruins of Sky City. They simply didn't have the mood to care about the changes of the Sea Exploring Sect. Therefore, the Sea Exploring Sect disappeared from everyone's sight. Along with Zhao Hai, the Demon Sword Sect and the Eight Sword Sect also disappeared.
The Eight Sword Sect had already disappeared. After the incident at the Iron Buddha Temple, the people of the Eight Sword Sect completely disappeared. As for the people of the Demon Sword Sect, they only appeared twice in the Sword Spirit Boundary. The first time was when they attacked the Iron Buddha Temple and the second time was when they attacked the Sea Exploring Sect. Then, the Demon Sword Sect also disappeared.
This was the effect that Zhao Hai wanted. During this time, he was constantly developing the Sea Exploring Sect. In fact, he was focusing all of his attention on the Sea Exploring Sect's large artifact, the Myriad Sword Ship.
In fact, the Myriad Sword Ship was easy to deal with. However, the impact force was the most troublesome part for Zhao Hai. The Myriad Sword Ship wasn't equipped with ten thousand swords. It was a ship made up of ten thousand swords. Swords gathered on the ship and scattered on the ship. However, the problem now lay in the impact force of the Myriad Sword Ship.
The impact force of a large artifact was the most important attack method. This attack method was the most powerful and also the most deterrent.
However, the Myriad Sword Ship was difficult to deal with. This was because the ship was made up of ten thousand swords. Together, they would form a ship. Apart, they would form a sword. Such an attack was naturally incomparably powerful. However, it would have a great impact on the impact force of the Myriad Sword Ship. If this problem couldn't be solved, then there would be no need for the Myriad Sword Ship to exist.
Zhao Hai had been having a headache about this problem. If the impact force of the Myriad Sword Ship wasn't enough, then it would be tantamount to a waste. It simply couldn't be called a large artifact.
Therefore, during this time, aside from perfecting the system of the Sea Exploring Sect, Zhao Hai had also been focusing on the development of the Myriad Sword Ship.
Currently, the Sea Exploring Sect had formed a system that was completely different from the Sword Spirit Domain. The sects in the Sword Spirit Domain were like small countries with strict hierarchies. If you want to obtain a higher status, then you must have stronger strength. This was the model of all sects because only by doing so would the strength of the sect become stronger.
However, the Sea Exploring Sect wasn't like this. The disciples of the Sea Exploring Sect had their own missions, but they had to undergo a lot of tests. From the initial aptitude test to the later tests, the Sea Exploring Sect would establish a complete set of information in order to record the progress of each disciple. After the aptitude test, they would establish a file so that they could know the progress of their disciples at any time.
This file wasn't established casually, it was very useful. First, when the file was established, the stronger disciples of the Sea Exploring Sect would estimate the disciple's cultivation progress. In other words, after testing the disciple's aptitude, they would be given cultivation methods and pills that corresponded to the disciple's aptitude. If the disciple's cultivation progress was the same as the assessment, then it would be tracked and recorded. If the disciple's cultivation progress was too different from the assessment, then it would be recorded in detail regardless of whether it was fast or slow. The disciple would be interrogated to see what kind of problems the disciple would encounter during cultivation, whether there was anything wrong with the disciple's cultivation, what went wrong, what went right, what methods could be used to speed up their cultivation, and whether this method could be promoted.
This matter made the entire Sea Exploring Sect low-key. This was because the disciples of the Sea Exploring Sect weren't used to this practice at the beginning. They were either Rogue Cultivators or came from small sects. Even the disciples of the Iron Buddha Temple who came from large sects didn't have such a detailed record. Therefore, they weren't used to it at the beginning, so they had to go all out.
In the beginning, the disciples were even very disgusted with this kind of recording. This was because in their opinion, a person's cultivation should be kept a secret, even if it was someone from the same sect. This was because the level of a cultivator's cultivation was their secret. It could even become their trump card when necessary. But now, all of their cultivation was being recorded. This was really disgusting for them.
However, this was an order from Zhao Hai, so it had to be enforced. No one could violate it. Because of this, the disciples of the Sea Exploring Sect had to undergo one test after another. They also had to record their cultivation.
Just recording the disciples' cultivation, estimating their cultivation, and testing their aptitudes took half a year. And this was under Zhao Hai's command. If it wasn't for Zhao Hai's all-out effort, it wouldn't have been possible to complete this in half a year.
In this way, Zhao Hai used half a year to establish the files of the Sea Exploring Sect's disciples. Then he adjusted their Cultivation Methods as well as tracking them. After three months, he adjusted the disciples' interests. For example, whether they like alchemy or talisman making, whether they like to refine artifacts or cultivate, whether they like to go out and explore, or whether they like to hide in their caves and cultivate. All of these needed to be investigated. But after half a year of reorganization, the Sea Exploring Sect's disciples were already used to this. Because of this, they were now very cooperative. Zhao Hai and the others would then redistribute and teach the disciples according to their interests. They would even provide them with some materials to practice their skills.
Three more months passed. Unknowingly, more than a year had passed since the destruction of the Iron Buddha Temple. During this time, there was almost no news about the Sea Exploring Sect's disciples in the Sword Spirit World. The reorganization of the Sea Exploring Sect was also completed unknowingly.
But then, Zhao Hai reorganized the branches and headquarters of the Sea Exploring Sect. He divided them into several areas. The Cultivation Area was a huge training ground. The Teaching Area had many classrooms where experts of different lineages would go to teach and exchange. The Refining Area, Alchemy Area, Talisman Crafting Area, Planting Area, Mission Hall, Accommodation Area, Dining Hall, and so on were all reorganized. Outer disciples would live in dozens or hundreds of courtyards. These courtyards were filled with people who studied the same cultivation method as them or refined talismans or tools with them. Some experts of the Sea Exploring Sect would be given missions every month. These missions were mandatory. They had to give a few lectures to the disciples and even solve some problems for the disciples every month. All of these missions had to be recorded. Although these missions were mandatory, they also had rewards.
The same was true for the ordinary disciples of the Sea Exploring Sect. They were given mandatory missions every month. If they wanted to go into seclusion, they would have to submit a report first before they could go into seclusion. Every month, they would have to study some courses and carry out some missions. All of these had to be recorded.
You can go out and do missions, but you must complete your monthly cultivation progress. If you don't complete your cultivation progress, the sect will evaluate you. If it is proven that your slow cultivation progress is not caused by you doing missions, then the sect will help you find the reason so that your cultivation progress can catch up. If it is proven that your slow cultivation progress is caused by you doing too many missions, then the sect will forcibly revoke your right to do missions. You must catch up with your cultivation progress and also do some missions that are punishment by the sect. Only then can your right to do missions be restored.
This made it seem like the management of the Sea Exploring Sect had become stricter. However, the disciples of the Sea Exploring Sect didn't adapt in the beginning. Then, they adapted and welcomed it. Little by little, they changed.
In the beginning, they weren't used to it because they had never experienced this before. They had never heard of a sect in the Sword Spirit World that made their disciples cultivate in this way. Finally, they adapted because they discovered that their treatment had improved and their cultivation had sped up. This was the most important thing. In the end, they discovered that this method was too good. If they had any questions, they could find someone to answer them. Unlike before, they had to rely on themselves to cultivate. If you couldn't become a personal disciple of an Elder, then there wouldn't be anyone to answer your questions. Moreover, through this record, they discovered that their cultivation speed in one year had surpassed their previous cultivation speed in five years. This was something that they didn't even dare to think about in the past.
But this wasn't the end. At this time, Zhao Hai also set up some awards!
