The Martial Unity

Chapter 2294 Sect Considerations

Rui intended to begin immediately working on his sect and ensure that it was at least underway before he left the nation to win over and reinforce allies of the Kandrian Empire. As much as he wanted to leave immediately and partake in a Master-level battleground, he needed to ensure that he did whatever he needed to get done with setting up the seed of his sect so that it may bear him fruit when he needed it.

He didn't know how long he would be away from the Kandrian Empire.

Wars were rarely resolved in a matter of months, after all.

It was entirely possible that he would spend years away from the Kandrian Empire.

Thus, he ought to ensure that he handle all the tasks in the Kandrian Empire before heading out to partake in a historic war that would define the future of East Panama.

"My goal with creating my sect, the Water Sect, is to have as many Martial Artists with Martial Paths that are centered around the concept of Adaptive Evolution practicing and pursuing Adaptive Evolution," he reminded himself, closing his eyes. "The more such Martial Artists there are, the better."

That was the objective of the Sect Project.

"What are the conditions necessary to achieve this objective?"

He began breaking down the goal and the requirements that he would have to fulfill to achieve his objective.

"Well, for one, the sect needs to be created."

That was a pretty basic no-brainer.

Yet, creating a sect was not a simple or easy matter.

For one, it was an organization that was created by like-minded Martial Artists when it came to Martial Paths with the goal of spreading the underlying field that characterized their Martial Path to increase the number of Martial Artists so that their field could progress and grow stronger, ensuring they grew stronger.

The most prominent way that they did this was by levying their numbers in the Annual Martial Fiscal Committee meeting, where they allocated, through votes, how two allocate capital to Martial Art.

The way they grew their field with Martial Artists was to incentivize and attract Apprentices, Squires, and often even Seniors to join their sect with various schemes such as training and growth resources, as well as the guidance and tutelage of Martial Artists of higher Realms, techniques not available in the Martial Union, among other things.

Rui recalled being scouted by the major sects, among others, from the time he was an Apprentice. He had lost track of the number of sects that had tried to recruit him, especially after he returned as the youngest Senior in history.

While Rui never accepted these offers due to not wanting to compromise the balance in his Martial Art, many Martial Artists did accept their offers in hopes of getting perks to improve their Martial Art progression. They joined the sect that matched their sect the closest while contributing their techniques to the sect, as mandated per their contract, while using the sect's resources and offers to progress as far as possible.

Thus, sects were able to grow their field by attracting Martial Artists, which increased their progress, and the number of Masters they had, which also increased their progress.

"This is how a sect functions, but what are the elements that comprise a sect?" He mentally jotted down the things that he needed to found and maintain a functioning sect.

There were many elements that comprised a sect.

Sects as organizations were comprised of the actual non-profit entity registered on paper in the records of the Ministry of Corporate Affairs. This would be the technical entity under which the land, inventory, and treasury of the sect would be registered as recognized by the government.

In other words, Rui needed to create an organization on paper with the Ministry of Corporate Affairs before purchasing enormous swathes of land upon which he would build his headquarters. This in and of itself could be an annoyingly long task that couldn't be finished soon. He would definitely need to contract with one of the mega-construction companies in the nation to undertake a project of this magnitude. "Also, it would need to be maintained smoothly in a manner that ensures that it is able to fulfill its purpose."

He would need a dedicated administrative team to care for all these matters; he could do it himself if he wanted to, but there was absolutely no way in hell that he would be willing to take such time-consuming matters into his own hands.

"Fortunately, I still have Michaela and the rest of my faction administrative staff on retainer."

He didn't just fire all of them after his faction dissolved. He kept them on standby while paying them high salaries to ensure that they didn't need to go elsewhere, giving them minimal work around matters surrounding him.

After all, it would be a waste to get rid of a team that had been vetted as much as they had been. Given that there had been no major information leaks during his time as a competitor for the throne, they had proven that they were trustworthy enough.

Thus, he had kept them all this time. And, now, he had the perfect job to put them to.

He could have them serve as the administrative staff of his sect; they could handle all logistics, management, and oversight on the development of the sect. Of course, they could only handle the technical minutiae; there were things that only he could handle.

For example– What were the incentives, benefits, and gains that would attract Martial Artists to his sect?

Yet he was extremely popular in the Martial Community; however, that alone would not make his sect popular. He needed to offer something that would make Martial Artists join his sect instead of other sects.

That wasn't going to be easy since other sects had plenty of Martial Artists and tons of resources and techniques to offer.

The question was, how was he going to match that?

A smile emerged on his face as a flood of ideas came to him. "This will be fun."
