Capítulo 1372: The Sect Leader

Alex flew for a while, going across the green landscape as he made his way toward the sect. 

"Do you know why the sects get to even take these kids from the orphanage? Is there some form of contract between them?" he asked the guard that flew close behind him.

"The sects donate a yearly amount to the orphanages in all the cities. In return for doing that, they get to choose what children they can take with them to make their disciples," the guard said.

"The kingdom doesn't take care of the orphans?" Alex asked.

"The agreement between the sects and the orphanages was found to be a better choice than just having the kingdom take care of it," the guard said. "Because of how many sects there are that want a piece of the pie, they end up donating some good money to the orphanages."

"And there is a competition between them?" Alex asked.
