Chapter 838 - New Position

Rean rembered sothing after that, saying, "Oh, right! Let

know when Malaka and Agis appear. Those two are also friends from before we t. They were battling on another front during the war, so we sent soone to bring them over here."

Malo nodded. "Alright, Rean." After that, Malo looked at Fizer and asked, "Does Master intend to beco an ancestor of our sect then? Or do you want to stay as a guest elder?"

Fizer pondered over the question for a bit before saying, "Since it was my idea to stay, I might as well go all out. Just announce

as the new ancestor of the sect. As for Rean and Roan, they can beco elders instead." Fizer then looked at Rean before continuing, "You two are still in the Nascent Soul Realm, and the human race, albeit small, still have a lot of them when you consider those who lived in the Demon Beast Continent. We also have those at the Soul Transformation and Saint Realms. It's just that I only know of 12 people that reached that level."

Rean was more than happy to accept the idea. "That's great! We were selected as the ancestors of the sect basically because there wasn't anyone stronger than us. But with Senior here, we won't need to take up that job anymore. We can focus more on our cultivation." After that, he warned Fizer, "However, Senior Fizer must understand that this is a democratic sect."

"De-demo-democratic? What's that?" Naturally, Fizer had never heard that word before.

"That ans that the positions in the sect, including Sect Master, are selected through a majority vote. Every single mber can participate in choosing a new one in case Malo ever steps down. The sa is said for the elders of the sect that had been selected when it was created." Rean wasn't lying when he said that. The sect did indeed have a few mbers who took positions as elders, even though they weren't that different in age. The only exceptions were Burio and Solan, two of the adults Rean got in the past. They were also voted as Sect Elders even though their cultivation didn't match the young ones.

Fizer was quite surprised by those words. It wasn't as if he never participated in a decision using votes. However, sothing like the Sect Leader position would definitely be selected by the strongest mbers of a sect. Even in the Zasfin territories, it wasn't anything out of the ordinary for bloodbaths to happen when such a mont arrived. To think that the Freedom Sect allowed every single mber to have the power to decide. To him, it was unheard of. "I don't see how a system like this could work. Others might use their higher power to force the weaker mbers to vote for them, you know? Then, the opposing party would do the sa. As far as I can see, this has the potential to divide a sect."

Rean shrugged his shoulders as he said in response, "Which ans we would just look like any other sect out there, right?"

"This..." Indeed. Wasn't such an outco just a different way to arrive at the sa issues that happened in other sects? "Then, why would you follow this more botherso approach?"

Malo was the one to explain the reasoning behind it. "Very simple. That's because Senior's worries are just possibilities. There has never been anyone to try it before, so we might as well give it a go. Who knows? It might really work. At the very least, our Freedom Sect is pretty united, even after having an election over the positions."

Fizer still felt it to be unnecessary. However, he was the outsider who just joined, so he didn't know much about the sect. "Well, we will see how things go in the future, then. After all, it'll take a very long ti until you need to step down from your position while the entire sect already accepts you."

"However..." Fizer still had a doubt. "Is it okay for

to simply beco an Ancestor straight away? Isn't there a need for election as well?"

Poliana, who was also there, shook her head as she explained, "The position of an ancestor is rely figurative."

"Figurative?"

Poliana nodded, saying, "Exactly. It ans that the ancestor has no power over the decision of the sect."

"What?!" This ti, Fizer was really shooked. "How could that be? I would still be the strongest mber, you know?"

Poliana still denied the idea. "It's exactly because you are the strongest that we can't let you have a position of power. The rest of the sect would be easily influenced by your words. We need our ancestors to have a neutral position, just like Rean and Roan did. They are here to help the sect stay safe. Of course, they will also benefit from it. But ultimately, their only job is to cultivate and let us use their nas to expand our forces."

Malo smiled and continued from there, saying, "Simply put, Master can sit tight and leave everything to us. This is our Sect, and we'll manage it. Unless we really need Master's help, we won't bother you at all. It's a very comfy position if you ask . After all, the lower-level mbers will work on everything. Just Master's na alone is already the greatest contribution we could get from you."

Fizer scratched the back of his head after hearing that. If one asked him, he would definitely want to use the normal thod. However, he had just got the disciple he had wished for after so long, so he didn't want to ruin it. As for forcefully taking control over the sect? The thought didn't pass through his head at all. In his head, Rean, Roan, Celis, and Kentucky were all very close to the Stage Nine Demon Beasts. He didn't have a death wish just yet. Not to ntion that taking control over a sect where everyone would hate him for it would be the worst possible idea. One must rember that all the sect mbers had amazing talents. Each Purple Color Aptitude cultivator in the sect had a huge chance to surpass even him in the future.
