Chapter 133 Reform
Sage Kang glanced at the other eight Sages, shook his head, and heaved a long sigh. “The times are improving, so the rules have to be changed. Who would have thought that the rules we agreed on back then would actually turn out like this now? Some people are getting too comfortable, so they stop thinking about advancement. If this continues, it will be of no benefit to humanity! Invincible, you guys come up with the rules and regulations. Change it the way it should be changed!”
Hearing that even Sage Kang had agreed, all the Sages smiled.
Although they each represented different factions, and although they had grown to their present state and had some massive interest groups behind them, they were Sages. They stood at the peak of humanity, and they shouldered the heavy responsibility of developing humanity! This was especially the case when the Nine Sages each presided over a region. They deeply understood that the rulers of this world were not humans at all, but those dire beasts.
There were countless dire beasts in those remote mountains, and there were even entities stronger than Sages. It was just that they had never appeared, or perhaps considered setting foot in the human world beneath them.
This world was very dangerous. The reason why humans could now live in peace, and even open up territories to constantly expand the living space of humans, was unity. This was especially true in terms of the unity of the upper echelons of humanity. The Nine Sages had different interest groups behind them, and were even divided into five major factions, so in a sense, they belonged to five major factions.
However, they only argued over minor matters. They were very united when it came to important matters related to the overall development of humanity. Moreover, the Nine Sages actually had a very good relationship in private.
Although Sage Kang was a Sage of the government faction, if some actions of the government faction hindered the development of the overall human race, he would not support it.
The Invincible Fist Sage said with a solemn expression, “This had been brewing for a long time before it finally boiled over. Back when we formulated some of the rights of the five major factions, we thought very highly of the administrative rights of the government. We hoped that martial artists would not domineer over ordinary people, but now, it seems like we were wrong.’ “If martial artists don’t have some privileges, who would still practice martial arts? If martial artists don’t have a way out, who would still practice martial arts? It’s fine if it’s just ordinary martial artists, but for martial artists who break through to become inhuman experts, not only should their rights not be diminished, the rights should be strengthened. Guidance and publicity must be given to the entire society. These are all the duties of the government.”
“Actually, the most important aspect of reform is the problem of going to the frontline. Some of the frontline martial artists risked their lives for a livelihood, while others did so because of the compulsory orders from the four major factions. But no matter what, they are fighting with their lives on the line against the dire beasts. They should be respected and have special privileges. How despicable is it that an ordinary person in Stone City dared to scheme to take the property of an injured and retired martial artist from the frontline? Moreover, the government actually ignored the matter due to ridiculous evidence issues. That is incompetence, degeneracy, and malfeasance!” “The rights of all frontline martial artists must be improved. They must form a special class in the entire society, that is, the community of frontline martial artists. This community must enjoy all kinds of special rights, far surpassing ordinary people. Only by doing so will people envy martial artists who go to the frontline to fight. Only then will they support martial artists who go to the frontline. The overall development of humanity’s martial arts will naturally improve greatly.” The other Sages all nodded in agreement. Indeed, through the incident in Stone City, they all knew that reform was imperative. The entire human society had been at peace for too long. Many people had even forgotten about the dangers in the Outland, and even more so, the people who allowed them to live in peace and warmth. They were those martial artists who risked their lives at the frontline!
Without martial artists, how could there be any peaceful life?
Some ordinary people still wanted to use the law to restrict martial artists to be like them, but if they were really the same, when everyone in this world no longer envied martial artists, and no one supported martial artists, who would still go to the frontline to risk their lives?
Yu Shan’s incident would even happen again and again.
Why was Lin Feng’s post on the Martial Domain Forum able to receive so many responses from so many martial artists? It was because they empathized with him. They were afraid that they would become the next Yu Shan!
Therefore, all frontline martial artists had to give special identities, or even superior identities. When martial artists risked their lives at the frontline, obtaining some authority in exchange for protecting the entire human society was true fairness. Only then could it benefit the development of the entire human society.
If not for this, looking at the current state of human society, many people were getting too comfortable. Their will to fight might even be dulled in comfort and pleasure, and they would eventually die in comfort and pleasure.
How could such a human society survive in a world filled with dire beasts?
Just look at the inhuman experts in the government faction. Even those inhuman experts lost themselves in comfort. The inhuman experts in the government faction were generally weaker than the inhuman experts in the other four factions. What was the reason?
It was because the inhuman experts of the government faction were hiding at the back. Their lives were too peaceful and too comfortable. They did not undergo the trials of life-or-death situations. They could have advanced further in martial arts, but they were all delayed by their comfortable lives.
Such inhuman experts had the same right as inhuman experts who risked their lives at the frontline, and even enjoyed comfortable lives at the homefront. How could other inhuman experts find it fair?
Hence, the Invincible Fist Sage continued, “There’s another important reform concerning the inhuman experts! In the future, any inhuman expert who breaks the genetic lock must serve at the frontline after signing the Inhuman Agreement, just like the army. Only after accumulating enough merit can they return to the homefront. They can even use merit value to exchange for holidays, and so
on.”
“If they resolutely refuse to go to the frontline, all their rights will be deprived, and they will be arrested by the law enforcement team. The five major factions will establish a martial artist court for a joint trial against them!”
“The law enforcement team can also be established through an agreement among the five major factions. The members will be the inhuman experts of the five major factions. Each term will last for a few years. Once their term is up, they must be transferred to the frontline.”
The Invincible Fist Sage had clearly discussed this with the other two Sages for a long time beforehand. He even provided the detailed rules and regulations.
The other eight Sages all nodded slightly when they heard this. This was indeed a good solution to the current problem. Although it couldn’t be said to be a permanent solution, it could actively mobilize the power of the entire society and allow ordinary people to participate in martial arts more enthusiastically.
From then on, it would be an honor for martial artists to go to the frontline. They could also obtain some necessary life assurances!
With the both honor and material good provided, would people not be eager to practice martial arts?
The restrictions on inhuman experts were also strengthened. If they were forcibly implemented, they would definitely encounter great resistance in the early stages, especially from those inhuman experts in the government faction.
For example, the members of the law enforcement team of the government faction, the Legates, and so on had already enjoyed a comfortable life and various privileges. It would definitely be difficult for them to accept such tough rules now.
However, as long as the Nine Sages were determined and implemented these rules by force, there was no power that could stop them.
“I concur with Invincible’s Reform Plan.”
“I concur as well.”
“The plan is much in line with reality. The rules do need to be changed. We can’t let people’s will to fight be diminished by peacetime. I concur too.”
Almost all the other eight Sages agreed to this reform plan. As for some of the specific measures, they just needed to let the people of the five major factions perfect them.
The Invincible Fist Sage finally revealed a smile. He hadn’t discussed this with Sage Bingyu and Sage Cass for so long in vain. “But there’s one more matter.”
Sage Kang suddenly smiled and asked, “Invincible, that little fellow who wreaked havoc in Stone City is called Lin Feng, right? How should we deal with him?” The others all looked at the Invincible Fist Sage, looking like they were teasing. Actually, this was not a big deal. There was no need to discuss how to deal with Lin Feng at the Conference of Sages.

The Invincible Fist Sage’s lips twitched as he said, “That little fellow is the ‘hero’ whom we jointly awarded the Hero of Humanity Medal to. Even if he’s a little rash, his intentions were ultimately good. However, this little fellow’s talent is not bad. He also needs to be taught a lesson. How about this? Lin Feng’s matter will be handled internally by the academic faction.”
As for how “internal handling’ is done, the other factions had no right to interfere.
“Invincible, you’re always so protective of your own.”
LIO
Sage Kang shook his head. The Invincible Fist Sage was famous for protecting his own. If Lin Feng was “internally handled” now, there was no need to expect any real punishment for Lin Feng. None of the Sages paid much attention to it. Hence, they switched off the signal one after another. The illusory images from the projectors also quickly disappeared, and the Conference of Sages came to an end.
