Chapter 1506 Warriors with Flaws
“What about these guys?”
ng Chao heard a few famous nas from Gao Chuang’s mouth. They were all important figures of the nine ga corporations.
ng Chao had also dealt with them before. He did not think that they were shortsighted and greedy.
He truly did not understand. “Don’t they realize that their actions have crossed the line?
“Once these scandals are exposed, won’t they fall into the public’s eyes and be discredited?
“They’ve already stood at the top of Dragon City. Why don’t they know when to stop?”
“People who are drowning have no choice. Do you think that these big shots who are capable to summon the wind and rain have a choice?”
Gao Chuang said, “In Dragon City, only warriors with outstanding combat strength can occupy important positions in all walks of life.”
“The problem is that there’s an irreconcilable contradiction between combat ability and important posts.
“The stronger a person’s combat ability is, the more ti he needs to spend on training and actual combat.
“Even a first-rate warrior, who has been through hundreds of battles, will lose his sense of sll and reflex speed greatly after living in luxury for ten days to half a month. It’s very normal for his combat ability to drop by twenty to thirty percent.
“Managing the nine ga corporation also requires a lot of ti and energy.
“Even a talented martial arts genius would find it difficult to reach the peak of excellence in the two conflicting fields of business managent and martial arts cultivation.
“However, the internal competition between the nine great cultivation families is incredibly fierce.
“So many illegitimate and adopted children, as well as their children, have a family competition every year. Each quarter, there will be a small competition between each branch, while every month, there will be a monthly assessnt of their cultivation progress. According to the results of the assessnt, the allocation of cultivation resources for the next quarter will be decided.
“While the senior managers of the nine great ga corporations will certainly have all kinds of privileges and exemptions for their family...
“As directors, general managers, and even the chief executive officer, they are considered to be high-ranking nobles in the outside world. If they lose to a junior who has just co out of the blue in a competition within the family, they’ll lose all their prestige and be ashad of themselves.
“Not to ntion, the business rivalry among the nine ga corporations often depends on the directors, general managers, and even the chief executive officer to make the final decision with absolute force.
“Only low-level businesses in fairy tales play childish tricks such as hacking, equity lawsuits, and sending spies to each other.
“High-end business wars in reality have always been a one-ti deal in the literal sense. The business belongs to whoever has the bigger fist.
“Under such circumstances, the top managent of the nine ga corporations must do everything they can to improve their combat ability. At the very least, they have to maintain their current level. There can’t be an issue of their combat ability declining.
“They don’t have the ti to cultivate or the opportunity to go deep into the wilderness to fight with the ferocious monsters. They have to use the Asura Hell as their arena to engage in a soul-stirring battle. If these influential figures in the business world want to maintain or even increase their combat power, they have to pour ten or even a hundred tis more cultivation resources into their bodies. What other choice do they have?
“Oh right, I haven’t ntioned the issue of filial piety to the old patriarch.
“As the head of the nine great cultivation families, Deity Realm warriors naturally need ten or even a hundred tis more resources than their adopted sons in order to maintain their invincible combat strength.
“The problem is that the identity of the head makes it impossible for these ‘old patriarchs’ to personally hunt monsters in the depths of the wilderness.
“Besides, with their astonishing appetites, it’s very difficult for them to satisfy their daily cultivation needs by hunting monsters themselves.
“Convert the profits of the nine ga corporations into their own cultivation resources?
“Such a thod of not separating public and private affairs would make it impossible for them to pass the financial audit, let alone obtain permission from the small and dium shareholders. It will even cause a storm in the financial market and an avalanche in the ga corporations.
“Therefore, as the heads of the families, the Deity Realm powerhouses rely on their children’s filial piety for their daily cultivation.
“In the past year and a half, especially, because most of the Deity Realm powerhouses were seriously injured in the battle against the monster mastermind, they’ve urgently needed ten tis more resources than usual to have a chance to recover. Therefore, they look forward to their children’s filial piety even more.
“The amount of filial piety depends on one’s own thoughts and ans. Everybody shows off their skills and expertise to achieve a common goal.
“If a child’s filial piety is too little, his old man may not be angry. At most, he’ll feel that the child’s aptitude is diocre and that it’s difficult for him to take on a big responsibility.
“What if you use overwhelming ans to show filial piety to your old man? If he knows that your cultivation resources are of unknown origin but he doesn’t hit your smiling face, does your old man have the nerve to punish your filial piety then?
“Under such circumstances, everybody has no other choice.
“How could those blockheads who insist on their principles occupy the important posts in the nine ga corporations and the nine noble families of cultivation, as well as beco high and mighty figures who could summon the wind and rain?
“As for ‘public criticism and ruined reputation’?
“Hehe. Right now, the monster civilization has collapsed. On Monster Mountain Range, the big shots had the strongest combat ability.
“When three to five big shots join hands, they can unleash the power of a rapid reaction force. They also have the agility and stealth that the rapid reaction force absolutely does not have.
“What if so-called ‘thousand accusing fingers’ can’t turn a main battle tank equipped with reaction armor into a pile of scrap tal automatically?
“How can such ‘thousand accusing fingers’ make the big shots, whose combat ability is far stronger than the main battle tanks, lose their reputation?”
Gao Chuang’s words made ng Chao fall into silence for a long ti before he mumbled, “I understand now. These people thought that after the monster civilization’s collapse, the Dragon City civilization would be safe and secure, and they would never et an opponent as big as or even stronger than us again.
“That’s why they can do whatever they want without any scruples.
“Haven’t these guys ever thought that there has to be a reason why so many Hell Beasts and Apocalyptic Beasts are curled up in this small basin when the Other World is so big and the land area is not much smaller than that of Earth?
“Didn’t they think that, perhaps, before long, an enemy more powerful and terrifying than the monster civilization would appear before us? At that ti, it won’t matter whether the Dragon City people are ordinary or superhuman, whether they are from humble families or wealthy families, whether they are the eldest son of the oldest family or illegitimate sons, or adopted sons. Like in the past half-century, we have to work together and fight side by side. Only then will the fire of civilization continue to burn brightly to the next millennium or even ten thousand years.”
“Those who have the ability to climb to the top managent positions in the nine ga corporations are all the best of the best. Of course, they’ve thought about the possible problems that could happen to new enemies.”
A partial smile appeared on Gao Chuang’s face. “It’s exactly because they thought about it carefully that these big shots acted so impatiently and plundered resources crazily without caring about the consequences.
“They would plunder resources by any ans necessary to improve their combat ability before a new war breaks out.
“When a new war breaks out and an even scarier enemy appears before all the citizens of Dragon City, they’ll be able to step forward and beco guardian gods who are respected and cheered by thousands of people. They’ll save Dragon City when it faces a mont of life and death!
“The victors will not be judged and punished. One day, in a brand-new war that is a hundred tis more grand and tragic than the Monster War, the big shots will be riding on the wind and holding lightning bolts in their hands. When they kill an enemy that is a hundred tis scarier than the Apocalyptic Beasts in the public’s eyes, who will rember that they once embezzled, monopolized, stole, and robbed so cultivation resources today?
“Even if soone rembers it, what’s the saying? ‘A warrior with flaws is still a warrior!”
ng Chao had nothing to say.
Gao Chuang’s sarcastic and eccentric remarks perfectly matched the scenes that he had seen in his apocalyptic nightmare.
In his apocalyptic nightmare, Dragon City was firmly under the control of the nine ga corporations. There were no new forces such as Battle God Palace, Broken Star Club, the Red Dragon Army, Blue Ho, and the Superstar Resource Recovery Company on the other side of the scale, trying to balance the forr.
It was not that knowledgeable people did not think about whether the ga corporations were more beneficial or harmful to the developnt and survival of Dragon City’s civilization.
However, all the experts and scholars who thought that they would be “more harmful than beneficial” could not answer one question.
“Besides the nine ga corporations, who else is qualified and powerful enough to protect Dragon City?” Thus, Dragon City had been under the protection of the ga corporations and peerless experts.
Even so, the end was near.
