The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1310 - 1309: Exposing the Traitors

"Brothers, things haven't been going well recently. They've become much less motivated in training."All the things Cha Xiangzi didn't dare to say, Geng Bucuo laid out to Tang Rao.

"Unmotivated? Since when?"

Tang Rao always prepared the celestial treasures and rare materials every month, ensuring none were lacking. Why weren't they practicing diligently? Was it because the treasures no longer satisfied them?

"Not long ago, I also found it strange. Why were these people diligent before, yet now, even with sufficient treasures, they're not as diligent?"

"Because we have a traitor among us."

Tang Rao explained to Geng Bucuo.

This traitor must not be very familiar with Tang Rao.

The brothers who fought together in the Land of Immortals with Tang Rao usually couldn't wait to give their hearts to him. Trand Rao trusted these few people 100%, but unfortunately, who else has the influence to incite the Kao Shan Sect brothers to slack and defect?

"A traitor? No way, if I knew who the traitor was, I'd tear him to pieces out of rage."

Whoever the traitor is, daring to betray Tang Rao, do they not value their life?

Geng Bucuo and the others couldn't believe that some brothers weren't practicing hard because they were incited by a traitor.

"Keep it quiet. I'm just suspicious now. Whether there's a traitor, I must investigate to be sure. Both of you, keep it low-key."

Tang Rao's words had to be obeyed, and upon hearing them, the two immediately toned it down, not uttering another word.

"Boss, today's the weekly evaluation. Do you want to check how they're doing in the evaluation?"

Tang Rao did mention there's a traitor among them. A traitor is still human, and as long as they're human, they'll have flaws. Wouldn't finding the traitor be an easy task then?

"Sure, let's take a look. I haven't seen this group of newcomers in a while."

The newcomers were being trained by a few others, while Tang Rao didn't bother much, focusing on delegating tasks.

"But boss, you'd better be careful. These people can pretend to be kind or seem weak, so don't end up helping them to ruin yourself."

This kind reminder from Geng Bucuo made Tang Rao feel genuinely cared for.

"What can those inside do to me?"

There was obvious disdain in Tang Rao's eyes.

It was unrealistic for those inside to harm Tang Rao, and Geng Bucuo's worries were excessive.

The evaluations had always been a part of Kao Shan Sect's history. Previously, Tang Rao would watch them closely, but lately, he's been too busy thinking about how to ensure a better life for the brothers, neglecting their feelings in the process. Now Tang Rao realized individual effort isn't enough, everyone needs to work hard together to show they truly contribute.

"Brothers, I heard today is your evaluation day again. Let's change things up. Earlier, there weren't specific reward and punishment methods for evaluations. Today, let's introduce more of these. What do you think?"

Tang Rao's sudden appearance and statements caught everyone by surprise.

The room erupted with discussions, but Tang Rao didn't pay attention to them.

"Previously, evaluations weren't taken seriously. Kao Shan Sect is a place to foster talents, not a place for idling. I don't care about your past talents. In the Divine Realm, everyone's starting from the same point. I just can't understand why you think you're worse than others with the same talents starting fresh?"

"So this time, I don't care if you're lower god or intermediate god, everyone will match according to the rank on the Divine Stone. The last fifty, sorry, you might not be suitable for Kao Shan Sect."

What?

The last fifty would be expelled from Kao Shan Sect directly?

Tang Rao never mentioned kicking the brothers out before. He never thought about this before; today's a special case, forced by circumstances, making him realize achieving something great requires a tough heart.

"Boss, isn't this evaluation a bit harsh? We've all been through life and death together as brothers."

Those at the bottom realized if they didn't speak now, there wouldn't be time later.

"You know you're brothers who've been through life and death together, right? While some are outside finding you celestial treasures for training, others are lazy at home, not willing to practice. Kao Shan Sect is a place of the survival of the fittest, not a retirement home. We can't support these people for life."

It seemed Tang Rao learned something, which is why he said this. Still, thinking about the top fifty rankings, it wasn't a big deal.

"Boss, are we using the testing stone for evaluation?"

Tang Rao was referring to the testing stone, not the Divine Stone he personally had.

"First we'll assign the groups by testing, and then the duels will start in the battle arena."

With Tang Rao's order, who dared oppose?

Led by Xiao Yue, each leader brought their people to the testing stone to draw their numbers.

The numbers on the testing stone were quickly sorted out. This thing's more intelligent than computers. Tang Rao couldn't help but praise the high technology of the Divine Realm.

"Proceed with this. Xiao Yue, watch closely, and report to me immediately if there's any situation."

Tang Rao found a place to sit. It was the widest view, but whether the view was good didn't matter to him. While resting his eyes, he quickly entered Illusion City to contact Yan Wei.

This guy Yan Wei was diligent, still not resting. Even Tang Rao felt a bit guilty watching him.

"Brother, you're not sleeping. How am I supposed to relax?"

He didn't mention work first, simply observing Yan Wei's thin frame. Thinking of how Yan Wei recently recovered from cancer without a chance to rest and yet returned to his post to ensure his safety in the Divine Realm made Tang Rao deeply apologetic.

"Among brothers, this is formal talk. My work environment is much better than on Earth. It's all because of you. If I hadn't met you, I'd have died of cancer long ago. Every extra day I live is because of you."

Why did Yan Wei bring this up again?

Aside from threatening Yi Ge to lend a doctor, Tang Rao didn't do much else.

Yet Yan Wei always remembered in his heart, making Tang Rao feel embarrassed.

"No need for thanks among brothers, let's get to business. Please help me check Kao Shan Sect's chat logs recently, especially private chats, and search for betrayal-related keywords. I suspect someone is trying to plot a betrayal in Kao Shan Sect, but I have no evidence. I'm worried if I disclose the records from Illusion City, others might lose trust in it and start doubting Illusion City."

Yan Wei nodded.
