After Chaoge finished speaking, even the elders present had been mentally prepared, but they did not expect Chaoge to divide the management of the Beggars' Sect disciples into such a detailed manner, even down to the number of fifty people...
"Elder Wu, Elder Sun, did you understand what I just said? Do you still have any questions?"
Seeing that everyone was staring at him, even the usually calm Wu Ting, Chaoge had no choice but to look at the two of them and asked in a gentle voice.
"I understand, but I want to say that there are more than 400 hall masters in Xiling Country. If this happens, won't many hall masters be demoted? Will this... make those hall masters resentful? Will they resent the decision of the gang leader?"
After Elder Sun finished speaking, Wu Ting also nodded, "Indeed, Elder Sun is right. If it is because of this reform, it will probably stir up a lot of trouble among the hall masters."
Chaoge nodded calmly, "The two elders are right to be concerned, and I think the other elders will also have concerns. The reason why I ordered more than a thousand hall masters to stay for the time being is that I want to implement this matter while everyone is here.
If there are any hall masters who are against this change, give them two choices: one is to unconditionally obey the arrangements of the elders and this leader, the other is to let them leave the Beggars' Sect directly and never join again."
Elders!
Everyone was shocked to hear Chaoge's strong words!
"Understood."
Wu Ting was not as surprised as the other elders, but responded calmly.
Then, Chaoge checked the lists in the hands of the remaining eight elders.
Chen Lu and Qiu Ziming, who manage the Zhannan Kingdom, have a total of more than 93,000 Beggar Gang disciples under their command.
Leng Zekang and Shan Cheng'an, who are in charge of the Eastern Prime Minister's Kingdom, have a total of 150,000 Beggars' Sect disciples.
Xue Rouyan and Zhou Yue, who manage the Canglan Dynasty, have a total of 170,000 Beggar Gang disciples.
Mengqiao and Xie Qianrong, who manage Beiping Lu, have more than 80,000 Beggar Gang disciples under their command.
Then, Chaoge collected all the lists of these people and appeared in the square again with the ten elders.
Each of the two elders brought the head of their country to a platform and announced the matter in public, while Chaoge and Bai Han waited quietly, watching the reactions of those on the stage.
As expected, when this matter was announced, the more than one thousand hall masters on the platform were boiling with excitement!
"This is so unfair. If that's the case, won't some of us be directly demoted to ordinary disciples? Elder, why is this?"
Huang Qiuyue was the youngest among the hall masters and had a more rebellious nature. She immediately expressed her dissatisfaction and questioned her elders.
"This was decided after discussion between the gang leader and our ten elders. At that time, the former gang leader was also present and he also agreed with this change. Although the positions of most of you will be changed, you will not all become disciples.
Moreover, in the future of the Beggars' Sect, everyone's position will not remain the same. At the end of each year, not only you, but even the positions of our ten elders are likely to change. In other words, if someone under you has outstanding performance and has made great contributions to the Beggars' Sect, he may be promoted from a branch leader to a leader, or even an elder. It is not like before, where everyone is compared based on their martial arts skills. Do you understand?"
"Really? We really don't need to compete with the elders, and we may be able to sit in the position of elders?"
After hearing the explanation from their elders, although most people still could not accept the possibility that they would be demoted, when they heard that it would not be just about martial arts points to have a chance to sit on the position of elder, those hall masters who were not very confident in their martial arts points suddenly became excited again.
"It's not just the hall master who was promoted to elder. The gang leader said that if any of the ten elders want to inherit the position of gang leader in the future, it will all depend on the points each elder earns each year. If one of the ten elders ranks first in points, there is no need to compete in martial arts, and he will naturally inherit the position of gang leader.
So, this is not unfair to you, it is to give all of you more room for promotion, do you understand?"
The elder had finished speaking, but some people were still stubborn and did not want to be demoted, because in their opinion, all these fancy tricks in the Beggars' Sect were not as good as his martial arts skills, which made them more trustworthy.
"This is a matter of both advantages and disadvantages. It is not as easy as you say, elder. But among the hundreds of hall masters, there are probably only a few or a dozen who will stay as hall masters. How do we make the choice?"
"Of course, it's based on your overall strength. The ten elders, the gang leader, and the former gang leader will discuss together and select the best person from among you. The first priority is to be the gang leader, then the deputy leader, and finally the branch leader, the deputy leader of the branch, and even the team leader, deputy team leader, or team leader."
Elder Sun was already old, and for the first time he felt that his authority was challenged. The hall master seemed a little dissatisfied, as if he knew that he would not be able to be the hall master anymore. Even his previous respect for them was reduced a lot.
"After all, we are still being demoted. Why? Elder, I disagree. What do you mean by the best ten? I think we should just have a duel to decide the winner!"
"Yes, a duel of combat, a duel of combat, this is the fairest thing?"
"Fair what?"
Seeing that platform No. 3 was having the most fun, Chaoge used his light Kung Fu to land directly on their platform.
Upon seeing this, Wu Ting and Elder Sun hurriedly clasped their fists and bowed to her, "Greetings, Gang Leader."
"No need to be polite. I just heard you say that you want to use force to decide the winner. This is the fairest way, right?"
"Yes! Gang leader, the Beggars' Sect has always been like this. Why do we have to have an assessment now? People in the martial arts world should follow the martial arts rules. That's what matters. If the ten elders and the gang leader decide the position of the hall master in private, then how can the rest of us who are eliminated feel at peace?"
"May I have your name?"
Looking at the man in front of him who was shouting the loudest, Chaoge put his hands behind his back and spoke in a calm voice, with an aura of majesty that he couldn't help but release.
From the expression beneath the mask, no one could tell whether their leader was happy or angry at the moment.
"Your subordinate is Hexi!"
"Hexi, right? Then let me tell you now why we have to cancel the martial arts competition and adopt a comprehensive selection."
"Why?"
Hexi looked unconvinced. In his opinion, Chaoge, the gang leader, had relied on his cleverness to win a few days ago. Even if they were convinced at that time, they were going to be demoted as hall masters now. Even if they were convinced, they were still dissatisfied. How could they have any respect for him?
