To be the best leader, you must also be the strongest leader!

Sun Yi took a deep breath and looked at Qingxuan Patriarch with a firm gaze: "Disciple needs the absolute power granted by the Patriarch. The absolute power of the entire sect is only under the Patriarch."

Before Patriarch Qingxuan could speak, the expressions of the five Jindan-stage ancestors beside him changed.

Elder Jin Jue quickly jumped out to stop them: "No! Absolutely not! How dare you, a mere servant at the third level of Qi Refining, attempt to control such great power!"

"That's right. It would be extremely harmful to the sect if such great power is completely controlled by a small cultivator like you!" Qin Chu objected immediately.

"Ancestor, you must not believe this kid's nonsense. Matters of power are of great importance and must not be taken lightly!" Elder Li Tai also hurried to stop him.

Han Yun and Ye Luo couldn't wait to jump out to stop him. They knew very well that if Patriarch Qingxuan gave Sun Yi such absolute power, even they would have to obey Sun Yi completely. How could they tolerate this?

Patriarch Qingxuan frowned slightly. To be honest, after what Sun Yi said just now, he had completely given up the idea of ​​selecting one of the five Jindan stage cultivators to be the new leader. However, it was a bit risky to let Sun Yi, a young cultivator of the third level of Qi training, be the new leader. After all, it was too unbelievable.

Seeing that Patriarch Qingxuan was hesitant, Sun Yi quickly continued to speak and added: "Ancestor, if I become the new leader, I will have to reform Qingyun Sect. At that time, the interests of some people will definitely be infringed. Without absolute power, it will be difficult to carry out reforms."

"Reform?" Sun Yi successfully attracted the interest of Qingxuan Patriarch.

Sun Yi nodded quickly. "That's right. Qingyun Sect has reached a point where it has to change. After I become the new leader, I will implement several major reforms, and there will definitely be a lot of resistance."

Patriarch Qingxuan looked at Sun Yi and asked calmly, "For example?"

The five Jindan stage elders also stared at Sun Yi with grim expressions. With Patriarch Qingxuan present, they really had no way to take action.

Sun Yi was full of vigor and announced loudly, "First, we must re-establish the sect's rules. First, anyone who betrays the sect will be put to death without mercy. Second, anyone who betrays their race will be put to death without mercy. Third, anyone who harms fellow sect members will be imprisoned and subjected to soul-refining punishment at the very least, or be killed at the worst. Fourth, anyone who harms living beings will be imprisoned and subjected to soul-refining punishment at the very least, or be killed at the worst. Fifth, anyone who commits adultery and looting will be imprisoned and subjected to soul-refining punishment at the very least, or be killed at the worst. Sixth, anyone who abuses their power to bully the weak will be imprisoned and subjected to soul-refining punishment at the very least, or be killed at the worst. Seventh, anyone who embezzles sect resources, causing losses to the sect, will be imprisoned and subjected to soul-refining punishment at the very least. Eighth, anyone who kills people to steal treasures will be imprisoned and subjected to soul-refining punishment at the very least, or be killed at the worst. Ninth, anyone who colludes with the enemy will be imprisoned and subjected to soul-refining punishment at the very least, or be killed at the worst. Tenth, anyone who disrespects their elders or conceals something will be imprisoned and subjected to soul-refining punishment!"

"Ten rules have been established and engraved on a tablet. The tablet will be erected in the sect square. All members, from elders to disciples, must follow them."

Elder Jin Jue snorted coldly and looked at Sun Yi with disdain: "Killing people and stealing treasures is natural and right, why should we punish them?"

Sun Yi glanced at Elder Jin Jue indifferently and curled his lips. "That was someone else, not a cultivator from our Qingyun Sect. I hope all cultivators in the Qingyun Sect are just and united. If everyone develops the bad habit of killing people for treasures, will they kill their fellow disciples and take their treasures away? How can we unite the sect like that?"

Sun Yi looked at Patriarch Qingxuan again, only to see that Patriarch Qingxuan was smiling, and there was a hint of admiration in his eyes when he looked at Sun Yi. Sun Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. From what he knew, Patriarch Qingxuan was a relatively upright cultivator, and he had a strong sense of belonging to the Qingyun Sect. Once these ten sect rules came out, they should be able to add points for him.

"Besides changing the sect rules, is there anything else?" Patriarch Qingxuan continued to ask.

Sun Yi nodded quickly: "Of course there is. From now on, I plan to cancel the monthly profit system for all disciples. Qingyun Sect monks will no longer distribute spiritual stones, elixirs and other resources every month."

"What? You want to cancel our support?" Elder Jin Jue exclaimed, his expression suddenly changed. The other four Jindan stage cultivators looked at Sun Yi with increasingly unfriendly eyes. Sun Yi's sword had cut into their aorta. Even Patriarch Qingxuan frowned slightly when he heard this.

Sun Yi nodded confidently, "That's right. The points system and the disciple status system will also be revised. From now on, all disciples of Qingyun Sect will be equal. There will no longer be distinctions between inner disciples, outer disciples, and menial servants. To obtain resources, all disciples must rely on their own efforts. It's no longer like before when they could just sit back and enjoy the sect's resources."

"I would like to ask the ancestor to build three battle towers, one for the Qi Refining Stage, one for the Foundation Establishment Stage, and one for the Golden Core Stage. Each battle tower will have one hundred floors, and each floor will have a trial illusion of corresponding difficulty. Each floor will have points that can be earned by passing the battle tower."

"You can earn sect points by challenging the battle tower. The stronger you are, the more points you get. This is the most direct way to earn sect points."

"Every year we can rank the challenge points of our disciples, reward the top-ranked disciples with points, and support them with some sect policies to increase everyone's fighting enthusiasm. Through continuous fighting, we can quickly and directly improve the strength of our disciples."

"If you want to earn additional points, you can either hand in resources in exchange for sect points, or you can complete sect missions to earn points. All disciples, regardless of talent, are ordinary disciples and are treated equally."

"Naive! There is no rule that classifies talented disciples as ordinary disciples. I have never heard of it." Jin Jue snorted coldly, completely disagreeing with Sun Yi's idea.

Sun Yi glanced at him indifferently, then said: "Good talent only means that their cultivation speed is fast, the difficulty of cultivation is low, and the potential for cultivation is great. It does not mean that they are necessarily stronger."

"In the world of immortal cultivation, aren't there many cases where cultivators with poor talent surpass those with good talent? And if you think about it, you'll know that the largest number of cultivators in the entire world of immortal cultivation are actually cultivators with relatively poor talent."

"This reform doesn't favor those with less talent in terms of resources. It simply gives them a fair chance to compete for them. Whether they become dragons or insects in the end depends on their own efforts. As for those with higher talent, even if they start as ordinary disciples, as long as they work hard, they can easily achieve success. There's nothing wrong with this."

"Furthermore, putting talented disciples and less talented disciples on the same starting line can actually encourage the more talented disciples to work harder. After all, if the more talented ones lose, they themselves will feel ashamed."

Patriarch Qingxuan looked at Sun Yi, and after hearing what he said, there was more and more approval in his eyes. Sun Yi observed this and felt happy. He decided to continue fooling him... No, he should continue to reason with him.

"We will integrate all of the sect's resources into points. Spirit stones, elixirs, spiritual tools, formations, talismans, opportunities for mentoring from seniors, and more will all be integrated into points, making it more convenient for disciples to exchange resources."

"After changing the points, I will abolish all the management of the sect, and then select suitable candidates from the entire sect to take up management positions. These managers will not be based on background and cultivation, but only on whether they are suitable. During their tenure, they will receive a considerable guaranteed points reward every year."

"At the same time, every five years, the sect will arrange for a dedicated person to review management. If a person has made outstanding contributions during their tenure, they can be promoted and rewarded. If they have no faults and no outstanding contributions during their tenure, they can continue to be appointed. If they do not perform their duties well during their tenure, they can be demoted or directly dismissed from their management position and replaced by someone else."

This reform approach made the faces of Jin Jue and the other five elders even darker. They had just canceled their monthly profits, and now they were taking away their rights. Isn't this fatal? The five of them looked like they were about to explode.

However, the Qingxuan Patriarch who was sitting in the main seat nodded in agreement with a smile: "Well, this one sounds good and seems very interesting."

Although Patriarch Qingxuan had no management experience, after listening to Sun Yi's novel reform method, he felt that it would be very helpful to the development of the sect.

Moreover, if Sun Yi is only given one year, there won’t be any major problems.

Sun Yi was overjoyed to hear Qingxuan Patriarch's praise. He couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Isn't it just letting experts manage experts, plus a performance appraisal? If the men's football team did the same, they would have qualified for the World Cup long ago. Qingxuan Patriarch is so easy to fool. I have to keep increasing my investment to secure my position as the new leader."
