Lin Beifan smiled smugly, Before long, we will have received many talents!
But Your Majesty, if you say that the Beggar Sect has many talents, why cant they be successful in other countries? Bai Zhu continued to ask, puzzled.
Thats because of the rigid class system; the path is blocked from above!
Lin Beifan said with a smile, To make a name for oneself in this world, there are essentially two paths: one is through scholarship, and the other is through martial prowess. Scholarship can lead to an official position in the court, while martial prowess can dominate the world!
Lets start with scholarship, which stumps many disciples of the Beggar Sect. Tell me, how many of them can read and write? Not to mention the disciples of the Beggar Sect, even among the common people, not one in ten can read and write!
Education is very expensive. It could bankrupt a moderately wealthy family to cultivate a scholar! Therefore, within the Beggar Sect, many people dont have the opportunity to study; otherwise, they wouldnt have fallen to the point of becoming beggars!
This effectively blocks 99% of beggars from climbing up the ladder!
Bai Zhu nodded in agreement: Your Majestys words are true!
Even if one learns to read and write, the difficulty of passing the exams to gain an official title and serve in the court is even harder than ascending to the heavens! Because even if you can read and write, so can others, and moreover, they have been meticulously trained from a young age, guided by famous teachers, and nourished with all sorts of books. How could they possibly perform worse than you? If you take the exam, you can only serve as a foil to them!
Lin Beifan took a sip of tea and continued: Even if you finally overcome all obstacles and earn a title, climbing the ranks is even more difficult! Because the court is essentially monopolized by the noble families, and you have no connections or mutual interests with them, why would they help you? There are only so many official positions, one for each person, and they will certainly reserve these positions for their own people!
As someone with no backing or power, with nothing at all, can you compete with them?
Lin Beifan shook his head and sighed: So this path is essentially blocked off!
What about martial arts then?
Bai Zhu asked: Since studying is not an option, surely there must be a sliver of opportunity in pursuing martial arts?
Learning martial arts is even harder than studying!
Lin Beifan declared, For studying, as long as one has a normal brain, they can continue with it! But for martial arts, its not enough to just have a healthy body; you also need the right constitution. If you have it, you have it; if you dont, you dont!
If you lack the constitution and talent, even if you want to learn martial arts, its difficult. Its something thats determined at birth, something you cant obtain no matter how much you beg! Bai Zhu, as a martial artist, you should know this!
Your Majesty is correct, to learn martial arts one must have the right constitution, and it cannot be forced! My master once said that in his search for a worthy successor, he traveled through over a hundred countries and only selected one or two suitable individuals from a millionits extremely hard to find such talent!
Lin Beifan nodded, Yes, its that difficult! Out of a hundred people, finding one with a talent for martial arts is already good. Among beggars, its even rarer! Most of them have already missed the best time to learn martial arts; their bones have set, and even if they have the aptitude for martial arts, they cant develop it into anything substantial!
Having a talent for martial arts is not enough; you must also find a master to teach you the skills! But if you have nothing, why would anyone teach you? Unless youre one in ten thousand, a cultivation genius, only then might someone make an exception and take you under their wing!
Moreover, during the process of learning martial arts, expenses are inevitable! To strengthen the body, one must often eat meat to replenish nutrients. Martial arts practice makes one prone to injuries, so you also need to buy a lot of medicinal herbs to nourish your body, otherwise, youll be left with lingering problems! The expenses are much higher than those for studying, and the saying the poor study while the rich practice martial arts is not without reason!
All of this is just too difficult for beggars! They really have no choice but to be beggars! But, are they truly inferior to others?
Lin Beifan shook his head: Absolutely not. Even if its just the second or third bag disciple, they have emerged from among thousands of beggars. They definitely have the ability; what they lack is merely opportunity! And I, I will give them that opportunity!
Bai Zhu nodded: Your Majesty speaks wisely!
Actually, when all is said and done, for the vast majority of beggars, being able to eat their fill is already more than enough to be content. If they have a house to live in, a stable job, that would be the pinnacle of life! If they could also find a wife and have a few children, then their life would be complete, and they would have lived up to the expectations of their parents and ancestors!
The Beggar Sect cant provide any of this, but of course, I can! As long as they dare to come, they will have the opportunity to escape poverty! As long as they dare to fight and take risks, they will have the chance to stand out! Isnt this better than being a beggar for life?
Each of these words pierced his spine, tormenting him.
As an elder of the Beggar Sect, he certainly couldnt just stand by and watch the Beggar Sect fall apart to see the talents he had painstakingly nurtured throw themselves into the arms of another country.
Yet, he was also a brother and a senior to the disciples of the Beggar Sect.
As a senior, would you be willing to watch them endure hardships with you, suffer with you, starve and freeze with you?
Would you be willing to watch them go through life unable to earn money, unable to find wives?
Are you willing to watch them leave with regrets?
It is destined to be a dilemma, to choose loyalty or benevolence.
Moreover, theres another issue now, even if you want to stop them, can you really stop them?
Their hearts are no longer with the Beggar Sect; they want to live a good life. Can you really make them stay by force?
You might keep them for a moment, but can you keep them for a lifetime?
Alas, its tough!
With these thoughts in mind, Elder Lai spent a sleepless night.
Subsequently, they spent another two days in the Great Xia capital city, continuing their efforts to expand the Beggar Sect, but still, they were unable to recruit even a single Beggar Sect disciple.
It wasnt just about development; finding a beggar was difficult in itself.
However, it wasnt without its rewards.
In the capital city, they witnessed its prosperity and wealth, and at the same time, they saw opportunities to defy fate and change their destiny.
If you want to eat your fill and drink to your hearts content, then come to Great Xia!
If you want to live in a big house, then come to Great Xia!
If you want to earn money to support your family, come to Great Xia!
If you want to find a wife and have children, come to Great Xia!
If you want to stand out from the crowd, come to Great Xia!
Great Xia is full of opportunities, with gold everywhere. As long as you come, you can be well-dressed and well-fed and rise swiftly in status.
