"Among the 7 palaces of Iron-Dragon Sect, the first is Heavenly Palace, which is presided by the deputy head. It's responsible for all the affairs in Iron-Dragon Sect, big or small; the second is Human Palace, which is responsible for the promotion of personnel, rewards and punishments; the third is Earth Palace, which is responsible for the administrative operation and construction of Iron-Dragon Sect; the fourth is Rites Palace, which is responsible for the rites and sacrificial ceremonies; the fifth is Punishment Palace, which is responsible for the criminal laws and commandments of Iron-Dragon Sect; the sixth is Safety Palace, which is responsible for patrolling the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect; the seventh is Skills Palace, which is responsible for the management and teaching of secret methods in Iron-Dragon Sect."
It's responsible for the development of Iron-Dragon Sect. The second one is Accumulation Palace, which is responsible for the finance, provisions and the management of industries of Iron-Dragon Sect. The third one is Secrets Palace, which is responsible for the collection and investigation of intelligence information of Iron-Dragon Sect. The fourth one is Prestige Palace, which is responsible for the external force actions of Iron-Dragon Sect such as conquest, suppression and assassination. The fifth one is Craftsmanship Palace, which is responsible for the research and production of various weapons, medicinal pills, runes and alchemist equipment in Iron-Dragon Sect. The 6th palace is Talents Palace, which is responsible for recruiting talents and selecting excellent disciples across the country for Iron-Dragon Sect. The 7th palace is Treasures Palace, which is responsible for establishing treasure-seeking teams and exploring pre-historical relics such as towers of time and various secret treasures for Iron-Dragon Sect … "
"Above the seven internal palaces and the seven external palaces, Iron-Dragon Sect holds an elder conference to negotiate the major events of Iron-Dragon Sect!"
After revealing his idea about the reform of Iron-Dragon Sect, Zhang Tie asked, "Elders, do you have any objection?"
After exchanging a glance with each other, all the elders in the Ancestral Shrine Palace shook their heads as they didn't find fault with Zhang Tie's idea at all.
"Now that you don't object, I will nominate some candidates for the seven internal and external palaces of Iron-Dragon Sect. Donder …"
"Ah..." Hearing Zhang Tie's name, Donder became stunned for a second.
"From now on, Donder will be in charge of the Accumulation Palace of the 7 outer palaces of Iron-Dragon Sect!"
"Zhang Su!"
"Yes!" Zhang Su hurriedly stood up after hearing Zhang Tie's voice.
"Zhang Su will be responsible for the Treasures Palace of Iron-Dragon Sect for the time being!"
"Yes!" Zhang Su understood that Zhang Tie was only putting him in charge of the Treasures Palace temporarily. All the actions of the Treasures Palace were made up of exploration teams that were dedicated to exploring the underground world. At least for now, knights were not needed. Zhang Su was qualified for this position!
"Mountain Lifting Elder Brother, you're still in charge of the Penalty Palace among the seven internal palaces!"
Mountain Lifting Hermit nodded.
"Elder Brother Lu and his wife will be responsible for Safety Palace of the seven internal palaces. Safety Palace has a great responsibility. At present, it's a bit difficult for a knight to be responsible for it. If Elder Brother Lu and his wife could be responsible for it together, I'm reassured. Iron-Dragon Sect should be safe and sound!"
After hearing that, Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi also felt that Zhang Tie's arrangement was reasonable as they nodded at the same time.
"As the head of the Guo Family, Hong Yi has been in charge of the Guo Family for many years. To be able to make the Guo Family flourish with each passing day, it goes without saying that she has the ability to judge the right people. Hong Yi, you shall be in charge of the Human Hall!"
After hearing Zhang Tie's praise, Guo Hongyi felt pretty good inside. After saying that, she revealed a brilliant smile towards Zhang Tie.
"As Suxian grew up in Lord Guangnan's Mansion, she's deeply influenced by the atmosphere in Lord Guangnan's Mansion. Therefore, she has a broad vision and is knowledgeable. Suxian will be in charge of the Ritual Palace!"
Bai Suxian nodded too.
The Ritual Palace was the most leisurely and important palace in Iron-Dragon Sect. Given Bai Suxian's temperament, if Zhang Tie asked her to take charge of the affairs of the Earth Hall and the Skills Palace, she would definitely feel bored. Therefore, the position of the Ritual Palace was the most suitable for Bai Suxian. "The positions of the other palaces could be vacant for the time being.
Take the Craftsmanship Palace as an instance, you could promote one or two assistants to run the Wisdom Palace. A few days ago, I've already had Donder collect a batch of talents in the Northeast Military Region. As for the vacant positions, we will arrange them when more knights join Iron-Dragon Sect. Take the Skills Palace as an instance, Mountain Lifting Elder could also serve as an assistant for the time being … "
"Actually, Iron-Dragon Sect doesn't lack knights. After the military exploits of head in the battle at the bank of Weishui River, Iron-Dragon Sect has actually received many inquiries from knights these days. Many knights in Taixia Country admire head and want to join Iron-Dragon Sect. Many knights in the Northeast Military Region would like to join Iron-Dragon Sect. However, head has not made a regulation on this. Therefore, we have to refuse those inquiries for the time being!" Mountain Lifting Hermit said.
"Let's see about it later. What happened in Jinwu City is a good example. As we don't know the background of the new knights, as long as someone with ulterior motives sneaks in, it would be a big trouble for Iron-Dragon Sect. Therefore, we'd rather have no qualified personnel than those who are not absolutely trustworthy. Never allow them to join Iron-Dragon Sect!" Zhang Tie put it straightforwardly.
…
Zhang Tie's new regulation had been spread over Iron-Dragon Sect on the same day, causing a great shock among the disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect.
According to the new regulation of Iron-Dragon Sect, Zhang Tie's two nephews were only outer disciples even though they were his direct disciples. They were not even qualified to enter the mountain gate of Iron-Dragon Sect. They had to practice in Jinwu Corps and promote to LV 9 before returning to the mountain gate and becoming inner disciples. The strictness of this standard shocked some disciples.
Meanwhile, this new standard also showed a golden road to many people. As long as any disciple of Iron-Dragon Sect could climb it, he or she would reach the peak of his or her life.
Everyone's efforts and contribution to Iron-Dragon Sect would not be wasted.
Although the new regulation had not been issued yet, the entire Iron-Dragon Sect had become vigorous and vigorous. The strong cohesiveness of Iron-Dragon Sect started to manifest.
In the same day, Zhang Tie also did three things.
First, he had Zhang Yang contact those clans and sects which had deep cooperation with Jinwu Palace and release the news that Jinwu Palace would like to have deep cooperation with those clans and sects which had towers of time by exchanging fiery oil and all-purpose medicament for the right to use towers of time of those clans and sects.
All the resources had a price, including the tower of time. Fiery oil and all-purpose medicament were also very important resources. As long as the conditions were right, the two kinds of resources in the hands of different people could be exchanged with each other. Everybody could get what he wanted. Therefore, everybody was happy.
This news was released on the same day when Jinwu Palace was established, which aroused a great shock in Taixia Country.
On the same day, Zhang Tie left 49 footprints which were 2 cm deep into the ground on a house-sized boulder on the edge of a cliff at the back mountain of Xuantian Peak. Meanwhile, he gave the mental method of "Vigorous Grass Steps" to Mountain Lifting Hermit. From then on, as long as disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect had 3,000 contribution points, they could exchange their contribution points for a chance to learn Zhang Tie's "Vigorous Grass Steps" on the edge of the cliff at the back mountain of Xuantian Peak.
After learning the mental method of "Vigorous Grass Steps" and experiencing the power of "Vigorous Grass Steps", Mountain Lifting Hermit admired Zhang Tie very much. He told Zhang Tie that according to the classification standard of battle skills in Taixia Country, "Vigorous Grass Steps" was definitely a top earth-level battle skill which was close to a heaven-level battle skill. Very few people could create such a battle skill across Taixia Country.
Zhang Tie didn't tell Mountain Lifting Hermit that "Vigorous Grass Steps" was just the realization of a certain rule of grass by his LV 1 consciousness of universal laws. It was not difficult for him to realize such a realization.
The third thing that Zhang Tie did was to enter Castle of Black Iron in the name of cultivation and meet White Bones Immortal in the evening.
White Bones Immortal's toughness was out of Zhang Tie's imagination. After being teleported into Castle of Black Iron as a captive, this guy had entered a suspended state similar to animal hibernation. He cut off all the senses of his body using a secret method. In this case, even if Zhang Tie slashed him with a saber, he would not feel any pain; neither would he wake up. Of course, he didn't have any fear.
Zhang Tie didn't have time to care about him these days. After staying with Zhang Tie for over 1 month, White Bones Immortal thought that Zhang Tie couldn't kill him.
Before leaving Iron-Dragon Sect for South Border, Zhang Tie didn't feel like playing hide-and-seek with him anymore …
…
In the evening, after entering Castle of Black Iron, Zhang Tie didn't ask Agan and Heller to lead the way; instead, he came to the underground cell of Castle of Black Iron where White Bones Immortal was locked.
Many knights had been imprisoned here; however, all of them had become dregs and fertilizers. The only living knight here was Aquino, the cowardly demon knight from Augulas Clan whom Zhang Tie had captured in the Earth-elements Realm.
Watching Zhang Tie passing by the gate of the prison, Aquino was so scared that he shrunk into the shadow of a corner and dared not raise his head as if he had seen a man-eating beast.
After throwing a glance at Aquino, Zhang Tie ignored him. Closely after that, he came to the front of the cell of White Bones Immortal.
In the cell, Immortal White Bones curled up like a snake. He didn't have any aura or temperature at all. His body was stiff as if he was dead. No matter what you did, he wouldn't wake up.
This guy had been maintaining this posture for over 1 month. Since he woke up and found that he was imprisoned here, he had been maintaining this posture as if he wanted to waste time with Zhang Tie …
