Chapter 52 - Excited Elders
After asking his question, the Grand Elder Fromir looked at the sect leader Gamos and waited for an answer.
As for the other elders, who were breathing heavily after the sect leader Gamos retracted his internal fire energy into his dantian, they were also looking at him as they wanted to know the reason for the sudden outburst of their sect leader. ??
"It's nothing. Can we proceed to our meeting now, Grand elder?"
The sect leader Gamos shook his head and asked Fromir to start the meeting.
At the same time, he silently thought in his head, 'I am 100 percent sure that the grand elder's planning has something to do with my two new disciples.'
Nevertheless, he didn't have any proof to attack the grand elder, he controlled his emotions because this time the inner sect was involved in this matter. So, he wanted to tread carefully with the yearly outer sect tournament.
'Grand Elder of the inner sect, I always stayed out of your way; however, if you try to mess with me or my disciples, I will not hesitate to go all out against you,' While looking at the Grand elder and other elders in front of him, the sect leader Gamos swore in his heart.
Since the Grand Elder of the inner sect was trying something along with the outer sect's grand elder, the sect leader Gamos clenched his fists and fury burned inside his heart.
"Sure, sect leader,"
Even though the grand elder still had his doubts, he didn't continue to ask any questions to the sect leader Gamos and decided to start the meeting.
Since the grand elder was calm and didn't bother to ask anything about the sect leader's outburst, the rest of the elders didn't dare to ask anything to the sect leader Gamos and sat in their respective chairs.
"Two months from now on, we have the biggest event of our outer sect. So, I decided to increase the rewards for the winners in the yearly tournament of our outer sect and along with some special rewards,"
Soon, the grand elder started talking about the outer sect's yearly tournament.
"What? Increasing the rewards for the tournament?"
"Grand elder, can you say it already, don't let us die in suspense,"
"What type of rewards should we give them, Grand elder?"
When the ten elders heard the grand elder's words, they were surprised and excited at the same time while asking about the rewards?
The reason for their excitement was because their own disciples were also participating in the tournament and if the rewards were increased for the winners in that tournament, then there was a chance that their disciples would get those increased rewards and special rewards.
'There is definitely something wrong with these rewards,'
However, the sect leader Gamos was the only one who raised his brows as he felt there was something more to those rewards.
"With that thought in my mind, I visited the grand elder of the inner sect, who was in a good mood and immediately agreed to my request to give the special reward for the winners of the tournament,"
Nevertheless, the Grand Elder didn't bother to reveal the rewards yet as he continued his speech.
"What?"
"You visited the grand elder of the inner sect?"
"Then those special must be definitely good,"
Once again the elders began asking questions with even more excitement than before which made the grand elder satisfied.
'These elders are very easy to fool; however, if the sect leader Gamos knows about what I am planning, then he will not let me go,'
While thinking that, he looked at the sect leader Gamos' face and was slightly disappointed.
'Whatever, this plan is very solid and you can't stop it because it will bring ire from the ten elders and if it is known to the disciples of outer sect, they will blame the sect leader for hindering their progress,'
Fromir had already thought of various possibilities of failing his plan; however, it was only a very small chance. So, stopped worrying about it and continued with the speech.
"The special rewards will be given by the grand elder of the inner sect by himself and even I don't know what those rewards are; however, with the support of our sect leader, I am planning to double the rewards compared to the last yearly tournament," The grand elder said in a single breath and looked at the sect leader before asking with a small smile on his face, "What do you say, sect leader Gamos?"
Even though the grand elder knows that the sect leader Gamos can't reject his idea, he still asked him.
"Since our grand elder went to the great trouble and convince the grand elder of the inner sect to give our disciples from special rewards, how can I say no to his idea,"
The sect leader also liked the idea of the grand elder to double the rewards because it would increase the competitive nature among the disciples and it would make them cultivate harder.
However, what he feared was the interference of the grand elder of the inner sect. Along with the outer sect's grand elder, they would do nothing good.
"Thanks, sect leader; thanks, grand elder,"
As soon as the sect leader agreed to the grand elder's idea, everyone thanked both of them with an excited smile on their faces.
"Train your disciples properly, now everyone can leave the meeting room,"
Since the grand elder didn't say anything more, the sect leader Gamos assumed that there was nothing more to say and concluded the meeting as he dismissed everyone including the grand elder.
Soon, everyone left the meeting room and the sect leader Gamos was the only one who was still seated on his chair.
'I think I got what they are planning now,'
After thinking for a while, the sect leader Gamos finally understood what both the grand elders were planning to do.
'No matter what you plan, I will stop it at any cost,' He clenched his fists as he swore inside his heart.
