Outside, a group of young disciples from the Hidden Sect were watching with curiosity.
"What do you think Mr. Jiang called all the sect leaders and elders for?" one of them asked, intrigued.
"How would I know? We'll find out when the leaders come out. No need to rush," another replied.
With a creak, the heavy wooden doors of the hall opened, signaling the end of the meeting, and Jiang Chen was the first to step out.
Upon seeing Jiang Chen emerge, the young disciples straightened up, their faces showing respect, though most dared not meet his gaze directly.
Jiang Chen did not linger; he left Mingjing Valley with Peng Tianqi and others. This martial arts conference had indeed been fruitful for him.
After Jiang Chen and his group departed, the young people gathered around their respective sect leaders and elders to inquire about the meeting's content. When they learned that they would be entering the world, most of them were exhilarated. Young people naturally wished to make a stir in a broader realm; after all, very few could endure the solitude of seclusion in this era.
Seeing the eager expressions on the younger generation's faces, the sect leaders and elders couldn't help but smile. However, wanting to enter the world was not something that could be accomplished with just a few words; they all understood what Mr. Jiang meant.
Back in the capital city, Jiang Chen's first task was to meet Zeng Jinren. Lin Yin had returned to Jinling University; she was graduating this year and had pitifully begged Jiang Chen to attend her graduation ceremony when they parted ways.
Jiang Chen was indeed quite indulgent towards Lin Yin and promised with a smile that he would attend.
As for Ye Ling, she returned to Half-Mountain Villa to continue her training. This martial arts conference had also brought her significant gains, particularly in practical combat experience.
In Zeng Jinren's tea room, fragrant tea wafted through the air.
Upon hearing about Jiang Chen's intentions, Zeng Jinren's face showed clear signs of difficulty. As the president of Dragon Martial Institute, his responsibility was to balance the relationship between martial arts and the secular world. Years ago, he had exerted great effort to force many ancient sects in Huaxia into seclusion; now that they were being allowed back out, Zeng Jinren naturally hesitated.
"Zeng Lao, I understand your concerns, but you must agree to this matter. You know about the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm; in a few years, the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm Gate will open. What do these Hidden Sects count for? Although their return will stir up some turbulence, it is ultimately a good thing—humanity's horizons should be broadened," Jiang Chen said.
"Mr. Jiang, I understand your point; however, this matter is not solely up to me. I need to report it," Zeng Jinren replied.
"How long will that take?"
"Three days. I can give you an answer in three days. Of course, I can assure you that we will definitely meet your request," Zeng Jinren promised. He understood Jiang Chen well; once Jiang Chen had made up his mind, no one could change it. What Zeng Jinren needed to do now was simply to open official doors for Jiang Chen. He had no desire or courage to go against Jiang Chen's wishes.
"Alright then, three days from now, Zeng Lao, come find me at Luoxue Courtyard so we can discuss some details regarding the Hidden Sects' entry into the world," Jiang Chen said.
Three days passed quickly. During this time, Jiang Chen was not idle; he spent his time in the Snowfall Courtyard recording some fundamental cultivation techniques. In his mind, he had the various sects' cultivation methods from the Xiu Xian World. Previously, he had already documented some, and this time he added quite a few more.
Sitting at his desk, Jiang Chen set down his pen and looked at the stack of A4 papers filled with cultivation techniques before him, feeling quite satisfied. There were over thirty basic cultivation methods, all of similar levels, sufficient for those in the Hidden Sect to practice.
Jiang Chen naturally hoped for Earth to enter a universal Cultivation Era, but while it sounded easy in theory, it was difficult and troublesome in practice. He simply did not have that much energy. Even with Lin Yin, Chen Qizhi, and others helping out, there weren't enough hands. Thus, Jiang Chen decided to start with these Hidden Sect members.
These individuals from the Hidden Sect had a far better understanding of cultivation techniques than ordinary people—tenfold or even a hundredfold—making it easier for them to practice. Jiang Chen did not have the time to guide them directly; once they entered the world, he would have Chen Qizhi and Lou Yijing periodically answer their questions.
Jiang Chen sat back in his chair and rubbed his temples. This matter was too cumbersome; he felt a headache coming on just thinking about it.
In the afternoon, Zeng Jinren and Qin Xiaoya arrived.
"Mr. Jiang, the higher-ups have agreed, but we still need to establish some rules to restrain the Hidden Sect as they enter the world," Zeng Jinren said.
"Zeng Lao, those from the Hidden Sect are entering this world because of your guidance. With you here to support them, they won't dare to act recklessly; you can rest assured," Qin Xiaoya chimed in with a smile.
"That's true. So, Mr. Jiang, when do you plan to let them start entering the world?" Zeng Jinren asked.
"Starting tomorrow. At that time, Zeng Lao, please find some time to gather their leaders for a meeting. Although they won't dare to misbehave, rules still need to be established. Their entry into the world should showcase the true essence of Huaxia Martial Arts. As long as they stay within reasonable limits and don't overstep boundaries, we can overlook minor transgressions," Jiang Chen replied.
"Alright, I'll arrange that right away," Zeng Jinren nodded in agreement.
"This matter is indeed quite troublesome, Zeng Lao; I appreciate your extra effort on this. I'll have Qin Xiaoya assist you," Jiang Chen said.
"Mr. Jiang, you're being too kind. You're doing this for Huaxia's sake and for the benefit of all humanity. Otherwise, you wouldn't need to involve yourself at all; I’m just here to assist Miss Qin," Zeng Jinren quickly replied.
"Whoever assists whom doesn't matter as long as we get things done. Qin Xiaoya, over the next couple of years, your main tasks will be twofold: first is facilitating the Hidden Sect's entry into the world; second is managing the film project for Mountain and Sea Secret Realm. Work together with Zi Ling to ensure that this film makes a significant impact globally. We aim for at least half of the world's population to see it—even if it means investing up to one hundred billion into marketing," Jiang Chen instructed.
"Rest assured, Young Master; I will handle these two tasks well," Qin Xiaoya said confidently.
These two tasks were indeed not overly difficult—especially the second one since Young Master had mentioned that they could invest heavily into it. Making a film resonate worldwide would be relatively easy; even if it was considered terrible by critics, investing one hundred billion could still generate global buzz.
As for the first task, while it was somewhat more complicated, having official support made it manageable; however, public opinion might pose some challenges down the line.
