The Supreme God of Martial Arts novel Chapter 81

Thus, I intend to send two Elders and several stewards to investigate the matter again, he continued.

"The enemies hide in the dark while we are exposed in the light—if we don't find out what has been going on as soon as possible, we will continue to suffer great losses," he finished.

He looked among the six Elders, which meant that he was asking for their opinions about his plan.

They now knew that Theon was really determined to solve the problem, because the elders and stewards were the senior leaders of Sun Sect who had powerful martial art skills. Sending them to investigate could greatly benefit and speed up the investigation.

After a while, a female voice spoke.

"Since you have decided, your grace, I support your decision.

I volunteer for the investigation," the woman, Elder Li said flatly.

Another Elder who looked short, shrewd, and vigorous stood up as well.

"I'll join her too," he said as his eyes blazed with anger.

One more Elder chimed in as well.

"Me too," an old man in white who just sat there and never spoke a word until now suddenly said, his eyes narrowed into slits. There were now three elders who decided to join the investigation.

"Very well, there are three elders who volunteered to join the investigation. I believe that the cause of this issue will soon come to light," Theon said.

"I will also appoint several stewards to help the three Elders in the investigation," he added.

His eyes sparkled with hope as he ran through his plan.

After a moment, he continued," The remaining three Elders will stay behind and preside over the work of our sect."

Shortly after, one of the Elders spoke.

"Your grace, the promotion examination of grunt disciples will be carried out today, right?" he asked.

Theon nodded seriously.

"That's right. We have no other choice but to take such a measure to make up for the shortage of outer disciples," he said sadly. After few seconds, he spoke to the elders once again.

"The promotion selection must go through two links of examination," he said.

"Elders, I then propose that anyone who can pass the first link of the promotion examination will be allowed to be promoted as an outer disciple."

The six elders were shocked by his words, but after contemplating for a bit, they all agreed. Although the quality of their disciples was important, sometimes the quantity mattered more.

It was common knowledge that it was hard to become a big sect without a certain number of disciples for its supporting foundation.

Steward Ouyang stood up from the viewing platform of the Martial Arts Performing Field.

He was the most senior one among the stewards. He then cleared his throat to speak.

The disciples in the audience seats had been impatient for a while now. When they saw Steward Ouyang had something to say, they immediately quieted down.

"My dear disciples, the first session of the examination is over," he began.

"Next, the disciples who have successfully passed the first step of the examination will carry out the second session."
