Chapter 903 Work of two figures

As Wu Mingli and his mother left the courtroom Lin Guiren and his wife still had grim expressions. The last scroll that flew toward Shao Ren wasn't just the Order handing out a notification, it had much graver implications.

The Golden Bamboo Pavilion had thousands upon thousands of subsidiaries spread throughout the continent. They had various roles one of which was the spread of the pavilion's influence, with the business they conducted only serving as a tool to further that end.

The subsidiary members had the same role as the outer sect disciples of a sect. They were new blood injected into the pavilion, the same way outer sect disciples of a sect operated, and just like sects, if one of those subsidiaries showed some promise, then their station would be elevated.

They would be brought into the fold and given either the post of an executive or become the branch manager of some of their key branches around the continent. If they continued to improve, they would be made into elders, whose authority across the pavilion was just below that of the founders.

The minimum qualification for an elder was the ninth stage of the palace realm. Every elder at the very least was a late-stage palace realm expert.

The elders were in charge of recruiting and evaluating subsidiary candidates, and it was from within that base that they would try to search for those with the talent to rise up into executives.

The subsidiary phase served as a test for those candidates similar to how sects conducted their tests. A bunch of cultivators would be recruited as outer sect disciples and then they would be given support that was just enough to help them settle and build their foundations and then they would be left to fend for themselves, compete against each other, grow their strength, and at the end there would be a test to see who among them had grown enough to warrant a promotion to the next stage, the inner disciple courts.

That level of exposure where the Order could breach their defenses with ease, irrespective of distance, sent alarm bells in Lin Guiren's heart. If they could penetrate their defenses that easily, how easy would it be for the Order to attack them?

Yang Qing couldn't help but gleefully celebrate inwardly. Lin Guiren and the rest, as seasoned old monsters, were experts at masking their emotions, but it didn't take a genius to guess that his earlier display had left them unnerved. Openly seeing someone breach your defenses was bound to leave someone agitated, especially if said someone was confident in those measures.

Yang Qing gleefully took it all in. He has always been a vindictive and petty person. The debts he owed, he could easily forget them, but the debts he was owed, no matter how small, he would always remember them and record them in his heart.

As he was busy gloating at their misfortunes, he couldn't help but release a heartfelt sigh as he took in the wholesome sight of the courtroom.

What he did wasn't something that could be easily replicated. He had merely been a bystander during the whole thing. Two figures had been the ones running the show, and those figures were two of the most powerful treasures the Order had at its disposal, to the extent that both those treasures stood out even against saint-grade treasures.

Without them, sending the scroll as he did would have been impossible.
