After hearing what Chu Yuanwu said about the reward, all the elders thought that the reward Chu Yuanwu gave was too generous and wondered if there would be some other problems.
Uncle San said openly, "Isn't this reward from our ancestor too generous? You should know that most of the techniques and secret manuals in Tengwang Pavilion are peerless treasures bestowed by His Majesty. Even the heavenly-level techniques are enough to attract countless warriors.
If we really give these techniques away as prizes, I'm afraid they'll attract the covetousness of various factions. Even if they obtain the techniques but ultimately refuse to accept our royal family's integration and instead turn against us, the consequences will be disastrous."
Chu Yuanwu smiled and said, "Little Sanzi, your worries are a bit unnecessary. Our royal family is now powerful enough to deter any force with ill intentions. Although we cannot single-handedly fight against all the warriors of the Holy Martial Continent, if we fight one force at a time, then our royal family will not fear the challenge of any force.
Therefore, the first place can only be our Wei royal family, and if the second and third places are arranged properly, the sects and forces friendly to our royal family can also obtain them. Of course, even if other sects obtain the second or third place, I have ways to make them willingly accept the integration of our royal family.
This will not only encourage these sects to participate, but also demonstrate the generosity of our royal family. This will encourage all factions to join our royal family. Otherwise, they will only think we are stingy and find it difficult to sincerely join us.
By this time, all the elders understood that many things were like this: if there wasn't sufficient incentive, others wouldn't easily risk their lives for you. To get them to work for you, you had to offer them enough incentives to attract them. Even fishing requires baiting the hook first, and even then, there were days when you'd come up empty-handed. Let alone trying to integrate those arrogant sects.
If the royal family didn't offer something that would entice these sects, how could they willingly join the royal family and serve them? As long as the rewards were generous enough, they would be able to entice many of the sects that were originally on the sidelines and choose to join the royal family.
Seeing that all the elders understood his intention, Chu Yuanwu continued, "Our royal family must also arrange for some people to participate in this martial arts competition. I will personally participate in the Grandmaster-level competition to let those sects and forces see the current strength of our royal family. Will they still have the courage to refuse our royal family's integration then?"
After hearing Chu Yuanwu's words, the elders all nodded in agreement. After all, only by participating themselves could they truly control the outcome of the competition. Only if the royal family defeated all these sects in this competition would they wholeheartedly accept integration.
At this time, one of the elders spoke up, "So, regarding the publicity and promotion of the martial arts tournament, what should we do? After all, only by letting more people know about this martial arts tournament can we attract more sects and forces to participate."
Uncle San said openly, "Regarding the publicity and promotion of the martial arts competition, I can go directly to that fellow Cao Mengde and ask him to spread the news of Wei's world's number one martial arts competition to every corner of Wei, just like he did with the news of Wei Wu Academy.
At the same time, we can also spread the news in the martial arts world to let those people from the sects know about the existence of this martial arts competition. We can also invite some famous people in the martial arts world to watch the competition. This will increase the influence of the martial arts competition and make those people from the sects pay more attention to it.
As for the prizes for the martial arts competition, after the construction of Prince Teng Pavilion, the ten factions that qualified to enter the Pavilion would regularly visit it every month to view the royal family's secret manuals. Therefore, the news that the Pavilion contained a peerless secret manual had spread throughout the Shengwu Continent. Not only would the sects of Wei Kingdom flock to it upon hearing about this prize, but even the sects of other countries would be tempted.
After hearing Chu Xiang's words, Chu Yuanwu realized that Chu Xiang's words made a lot of sense, and said to Chu Xiang: "Then the publicity matter will be left to you."
In this way, under the discussion between Chu Yuanwu and the elders of the clan, all matters concerning the martial arts competition were gradually determined.
The royal family also began to make intensive preparations for this martial arts competition, hoping that through this competition they could successfully integrate the sect forces within the Wei State and enhance the strength of the royal family.
As the preparations for the martial arts competition proceeded in an orderly manner, the publication of the Royal Daily allowed most of the warriors in Wei to know that the Wei royal family was about to hold the world's number one martial arts competition.
Of course, many martial artists also wondered why the "Wei Kingdom" was prefixed to the World's Number One Martial Arts Conference. This question was also raised by Minister of Works Tang Hongwen during a discussion between the prince and Cao Mengde at the Royal Government Affairs Office.
In the Royal Government Affairs Office, because Emperor Chu Fan had always been very inactive, whenever something big happened, the Royal Government Affairs Office, the power center of the Wei court, along with the six ministers and Prime Minister Cao Mengde and other important officials would gather together to discuss countermeasures.
The news that the royal family was about to host the Wei Kingdom's number one martial arts tournament was the focus of everyone's attention. However, Emperor Chu Fan had not arranged for the Wei Kingdom's court to do anything about it, so they gathered to discuss what his majesty was thinking.
Of course, the first question was about the tournament's name. Minister of Works Tang Hongwen asked, "Your Majesty, why did you call this tournament the Wei Kingdom's Number One Martial Arts Tournament? If it's the world's number one martial arts tournament, why is it named 'Wei Kingdom'? Is it limited to Wei Kingdom warriors?"
Minister of Rites Fu Youde said, "I think Minister Tang's understanding of the word 'Wei' is biased. As the Minister of Rites, our Ministry of Rites is specifically responsible for the rituals, rules and regulations of the world. The word 'Wei' is not a restriction, but rather emphasizes the identity and regional characteristics of the organizer. It tells all warriors on the Shengwu Continent that this martial arts competition is hosted by the royal family of Wei. In this way, even if other countries imitate us in holding martial arts competitions in the future, they will be remembered as the first of Wei. This will not only enhance the prestige of Wei, but also attract more foreign warriors and promote exchanges and cooperation."
Fu Youde's words made the important officials present nod their heads. Prime Minister Cao Mengde also agreed and said, "Minister Fu is absolutely right. I also think so."
