The moment Murong De heard what President Hu said, he knew there was no reason for him to continue debating and his brows immediately creased as he sunk into a difficult moment.
It was totally two different kinds of concept on dividing the quota equally and obtaining seventy percent of it.
Because once they enter the ancient mystic region, the outside world would not know the scenario within the mystic region. In order to protect the Sect’s benefits, there was bound to be some kind of battle between the two Sects.
If the quota was divided equally, the number of people who could enter were almost the same so there was bound to be a mutual win or loss situation.
But if one party only obtained thirty percent of the quota, then after they enter the mystic region, the disparity between the two sides’ ability would increase. The side which had more people would have an overwhelming advantage.
If a scuffle were to break out, there was no suspense regarding which side would win or lose.
Sometimes, some sects might even use underhanded methods to encircle and annihilate the disciples from the Sect which had lesser people in order to obtain the exclusivity of the mystic region’s resources.
Sect mainly allied together for the sake of benefits but the minute they entered the mystic region, their agreement was considered completed so many others could do any kind of things then.
So the number of people who entered the mystic region was very important and not as simple as it looked on the surface.
Murong De pondered for a long time and in the end he still felt insecure so he opened his mouth, “This… I originally didn’t agree to using the arena tournament method to decide on the quota. This will hurt the harmony between our two Sects so I feel that towards the distribution of the mystic region’s quota, it’s not impossible…..”
His speech sounded elegant but still, it was lacking in spirit.
Other than Li Moying, who else can go up against Green Cloud Sect’s eldest disciple Leng Yi Feng?
Before he finished his sentence, Cui Yuan Shan suddenly b.u.t.ted in again cutting off his words, “Junior Brother Murong, are you sure you want to divide the quota evenly? Are you seriously afraid of us Green Cloud Sect? Without Mister Li, Celestial Light Sect is indeed a third rated Sect!”
Murong De was instantly stuffed as he suppressed his anger while his entire face flushed red.
Although Celestial Light Sect indeed relied on Li Moying to hang on, but for someone to say it out openly made him, the Sect Master lost face.
Cui Yuan Shan looked at him and continued, “But you don’t need to be so scared, did you think I’d take advantage of you? We, Green Cloud Sect, are different from you. Every single disciple with us is abled and it’s not just the eldest disciple alone! To tell you the truth, my eldest disciple Leng Yi Feng had just pa.s.sed his eighteen birthday last month.”
Murong De was stunned, “Then…. he also can’t…..”
Cui Yuan Shan nodded, “So how about it? Isn’t my condition very fair? Although Mister Li cannot engage in the tournament but Leng Yi Feng also can’t take part in it. So on this point both of us are at the same starting point. When I said only those under eighteen can take part in the tournament, it is absolutely not to cheat you. How about it? Are you still intending to divide the quota into half?”
Cui Yuan Shan’s eyes were fixed intently on Murong De as he popped the same question once again.
Murong De couldn’t help but frowned as instinct told him that Cui Yuan Shan was definitely up to no good!
He couldn’t possibly believe that a wily old fox like Cui Yuan Shan would suddenly have a change of att.i.tude, becoming so kind hearted and actually allowed his best eldest disciple to back out from the tournament?
Competing for the mystic region’s quota was a big matter which concerned the entire Sect’s future. How could he treat this as child’s play since he drew away his own trump card?
But Cui Yuan Shan had already put things to such a step so if he still didn’t agree to the tournament, then wouldn’t it seem that Celestial Light Sect had no power at all?
He had automatically let his eldest disciple withdraw from the tournament and they still didn’t dare to take up the challenge?
