Fighting to be Kind in a Cultivation World

Chapter 267: Perception Training

The standard of this world is to focus all in on the geniuses.

Which makes sense. For every silver you spend on them, you would have to spend a 1000 on the average person.

Since most righteous cultivation sects want some measure of public support, they at least give the minimum for outer court and sect servants. But they dont really provide material support or dedicated training, unless its standardized. There are, of course, opportunities and missions to get more resources, but they are limited and arent guaranteed.

Its only once they reach the inner court that they give consistent resources and dedicated support for each person.

This leads to a culture of competition for the remaining resources for the lower groups.

I guess this comes to my operational style.

I still want to foster talents. But I dont want to leave others out. Everyone should receive something, at least.

but Im also have limited time, energy, resources, and theres only one of me.

After giving it some thought and running my scan on the different options, I come to my choice.  

 Have the geniuses consolidate their gains within this layer, while still helping the people having issues.

As is normal within cultivation, there is the ability to stay within a level to fill yourself out more. Here, it would be as if most holes are filled, but there are a few left that are tough to get to. Ones which would be great to have filled.

 So, I direct my attention to them.

Those of you who have already completed the basic infusion use this as an opportunity to go deeper. To see how much you can keep within your body. Unlike with the normal body cultivation, which isnt a method, your body cultivation method can use the deeper foundation.

As I say that, I can see that those helping others seem slightly uncomfortable.

By helping others, they are wasting time that could be spent on furthering cultivation.

Not a perception that I want to be sticking around. Looks like I need to provide incentives for people to help each other.

For those who are helping their fellows here, each of you will receive a spirit stone for your efforts. Those who do exceptionally well in instructing others will be one of the first to have a dedicated session with me on their cultivation, in addition to two extra stones.

If you all didnt know before, my healing abilities can refill your qi, besides your bodies. I guarantee it will be even more productive because of this.                             

 The change that comes over the group is almost frightening. All the trainers eyes are sharp and focused on the people in front of them.

And my scan catches a few of the geniuses that were going to consolidate their gains, now showing as able and willing trainers. The most prominent of them all being Shi Ji, the blonde noblewoman. I can see a bit of drool before she slurps it back up.

I get the feeling that she isnt thinking about the spirit stones.

And that concerns me.

Either way, Im noticing a negative incentive for competition. I want people to work together to help others, if necessary.

As an additional side note, there wont just be one beneficiary of this. And those who successfully work with others to come up with excellent long-term solutions may even get additional benefits.

My saying that seems to help calm things down a bit, as its still possible to get the increased material benefits and time. I also start seeing some of the yellow sash people working together, having already been acquainted with each other.

Some of the normal people's group go up as well. Discussing solutions and talking with the people they are helping.

This is going better than I thought now. I was worried about how the yellow sashes would integrate into the union, but it seems their presence and cooperation with each other is more positives than negative.

Obviously, having a group that can work together well is great for me, but the others seeing that makes them work with each other more to not fall behind.

As long as I can keep it in the realm of healthy competition, it should be great for both of their teams growth.

Adding to this, consolidating their gains and trying to infuse deeper will take at least a week for even the best of them that are using this method. The reason being that it gets tougher and tougher to fill out the last bits of their body with qi.

Normally, this wouldnt be worth the struggle, but as they can see, their new and improved bodies make this a doable effort.

The end goal for all of this is to build in pattern of positive behavior in both groups, for when we have to go against others.

Picking each other up. Making sure others arent left behind.

And a step further after that, being willing to help others outside of the group without looking for a reward. Creating a truly righteous organization.

But there are a few steps that will need to happen before we get to that point.

Either way, this gives me the opportunity to move forward with something Ive been working toward.

Since Ill need to be leaving with the group that made into the outer court and inner court, then I wont have to worry about the people left behind not having something to work on.

Which is why I use the rest of this time to spend with each person I can, to hone in on what they are doing right and wrong. So, when Im gone, I wont have to worry about anything going wrong.

Luckily for me, there are quite a few of the yellow sashes that get the idea of what to look for.

Most prominently, Xu Ah, the Yellow Sashes Foundation Establishment cultivator. Since shes able to use her spiritual sense to get a general idea (with their permission, of course) of how they are doing, shes able to lead them much better through what to do better.

The second group, made of non-yellow sashes, also has some people who didnt make through the initial test, but are amazing at qi control.

Qi control is probably one of the big exceptions that would allow a person to be in the outer courts, even if below the requirement list. Sadly, they dont advertise that fact, because they dont want to deal with the tests to see this.

Despite how easy this seems right now, if they werent completely purified, things would be MUCH tougher and would require a lot more investment to determine their level of control.

 It seems almost as if a moment before the day ends.

Everyone heads back to their rooms just as the sun lowers on the horizon.

And I head back to bed, thinking about the journey for tomorrow.
