The first disciple, Cao Rui, looked at his master, Red Whale Daoist, with confusion.
"Foolish."
"Do we still have the privilege to be picky on Red Whale Island?"
"It's already quite good that a Foundation Establishment cultivator is willing to join us."
"Currently, the influence of Red Whale Island is steadily declining."
"One Honored Guest Elder after another is leaving."
"Up to now, there are only five Honored Guest Elders left."
"However, we still control twenty Tier Two islands."
"Most of these Tier Two islands don't have a Foundation Establishment cultivator to guard them."
"Now we've offered most of the benefits in hopes that they will be loyal and diligent."
"As the saying goes, 'Heavy rewards bring forth brave men.'"
"Having given so many advantages, why worry about them not being dedicated?"
"Moreover, the most important matter on Red Whale Island currently isn't these trivial benefits but cultivating the next Golden Core."
