Lin Feng was not at all surprised by Rong Yan’s early welco.
After all, Rong Yan was in charge of the ss hall in the Upper District, overseeing the daily als for over two thousand Upper Class citizens and cultivators in the Church District.
Don’t underestimate this seemingly inconspicuous departnt.
It is arguably the most lucrative place in the entire Oasis Town. Even if you’re just responsible for the supply chain, you can still pocket quite a bit on the side.
Otherwise, how else could he afford to have Li Mingquan persuade Lin Feng and also present ten kilograms of Level 20 Rock-Horned Horse Evolutionary at as a gift for Lin Feng to co forward?
In fact, Rong Yan himself is quite capable.
With a Level 19 evolution, he was the second only to the Governor on the Oasis Battleship. Even in the entire Oasis Town, he belonged to the upper echelon, not just an ordinary manager who had just been promoted to the Late Tier One stage.
If it weren’t for the Church’s strict control over evolutionary resources for the Upper District’s mbers, Rong Yan’s accumulated resources and wealth could have long allowed his son, Rong Xuan, to break through to Mid-Tier One and beco a late-stage Evolver, thus avoiding the fate of being sacrificed after reaching a hundred years.
Regarding how Upper Class citizens advance to the Late Tier One stage, the Church has a strict tracing and investigation procedure. If soone is found to be secretly sending resources...
Even if Rong Xuan reached Late Tier One, he would be directly sacrificed in the next Holy Spring Day during the Moonlit Ceremony for violating the rules.
This is also why Lord Bishop established the Upper District to suppress the local family power expansion.
The main personnel in the Upper District, from the original generation of pioneers, have gradually been replaced by the talented descendants of various major families.
Among them, there are beings with the potential of Tier Two evolution.
Especially families like the Li Family, whose Patriarch, Li Hao, is a strong Evolver at the Tier Two Middle Stage Limit with Level 26, and was once ranked in the top fifty of the Celestial List.
In terms of evolutionary talent, although he hasn’t reached the potential of a Tier Three King, he can easily progress to Late Tier Two.
However, due to the constraints of the Rock-Horned Horse evolution path, he’s been stuck at Mid-Tier Two for hundreds of years.
Therefore, it stands to reason that if he wanted to establish a family and continue his bloodline, the descendants would at least have several children with Tier Two talent.
Especially the direct descendants of the first generation.
Yet, over the years, the Li Family has only produced a new Early Tier Two Evolver, who is in the generation of Li Hao’s grandchildren, with an age gap of three to four hundred years between them.
And Li Hao’s first-generation direct descendants, those with even a little talent, were generally awarded Upper Class status by the Oasis Supre Council before the age of fifty, and thus ca to the top layer of the battleship’s Upper District to enjoy the rest of their lives.
In fact, in the early stages, many family descendants hoped to go to the Oasis Battleship to beco a well-cared-for Upper Class citizen.
Just as Oasis Town promotes to the lower classes.
Unfortunately, even though the upper echelons like Li Hao saw through the extrely sinister and malicious sche behind Lord Bishop’s actions, they couldn’t thwart the inherent laziness of human nature.
Even Li Mingquan was secretly cultivated by Li Hao for seventy or eighty years before ultimately becoming the family’s second Tier Two Evolver.
With Li Mingquan’s addition, the Li Family and the other two major clans gained more footing and voice in the Oasis Supre Council.
Even so, the Li Family has already lost the most talented first-generation mbers, and even if Li Mingquan was fortunately nurtured, his potential is unlikely to surpass the family patriarch, Li Hao.
This is one of the reasons why Li Hao doesn’t view him as a successor.
Even if Li Mingquan doesn’t die, and a few centuries later he succeeds Li Hao as the new Patriarch, it would only be chronic death, and the entire family would still not be able to escape the fate of decline.
Although Li Mingquan’s ergence changed the power dynamics between the local families and the Oasis Church, it also led Lord Bishop to deepen the oppression on each major family.
For instance, over the past century, the subsidies provided by the Holy City have beco increasingly minimal, and the major families have had to pool money to purchase necessary basic production materials like fresh water.
anwhile, the Oasis Battleship continues to absorb new Upper Class citizens or encourages those citizens to have more offspring to help new births ascend to Early Tier One.
This ans that even if one Upper Class citizen needs to be sacrificed every Holy Spring Day, dying twenty-four Upper Class citizens a year, the number of mbers in the Upper District will continue to rise steadily.
Supporting such a large group of unproductive citizens is a heavy burden for the entire Oasis Town.
As the number of mbers continues to grow, the increasing consumption of the Upper District continues to drain the potential of the Three Major Villages, making it very difficult for them to accumulate more resources.
Until now, they have maintained a large scale of over two thousand Upper Class citizens.
And this is the maximum that Oasis Town can sustain.
To feed this group of pigs, each major family has exhausted its potential for developnt.
This has led to their hesitation, even if they possess a piece of Level 20 Rock-Horned Horse Source Material, to easily let their talented family mbers directly absorb and evolve.
Because a Tier Two Evolver, even at the lowest Level 20 existence, requires consuming a large amount of Late Tier One Rock-Horned Horse at to et the minimum daily demand of their Tier Two cells.
What was originally a welfare for the initial pioneers of the Oasis has gradually beco a monster weighing heavily on the heads of all Oasis Town citizens, leaving them breathless.
It is also a covert ans by the Oasis Church to suppress local forces, plunder their developnt potential and evolutionary resources.
