[Current pressure value: 87]

What? Why would praising her increase her stress level?

"You are really amazing!" Tang Xin quickly added, "When I was in the foundation-building stage, my cultivation speed was not even half as fast as yours!"

"But you have reached the Golden Core stage now..."

[Current pressure value: 90]

Oops, the numbers are getting higher!

"It's okay, Su Ling," Tang Xin placed his hands on his chest and said devoutly, "I believe it's only a matter of time before you surpass me!"

The sword-cultivating girl was silent for a while before she slowly spoke.

"I thought you had changed for the better," she glared at Tang Xin while holding the sword, "but your personality is still as bad as before... Are you so happy showing off in front of me? Damn it!"

"I must defeat you!"

[Current pressure value: 95]

After saying that, Su Ling left angrily, leaving the Chief Senior Sister standing alone in the wind...

……

An isolated case, absolutely an isolated case!

Su Ling's personality is rather awkward, so it would be difficult to lower his stress level.

But Shui Qiu, who is more knowledgeable, gentle and considerate, would definitely not be like this!

Tang Xin found Junior Sister Shui Qiu again. At this time, she was soaking in the pool water specially prepared by the Great Elder, practicing martial arts.

[Current pressure value: 85. Target: 60]

It was higher than Su Ling's starting value. That's right, introverted girls might keep their stress inside.

"Senior sister!"

Seeing Tang Xin coming, Shui Qiu stood up from the waist-deep water in the pool and shouted excitedly.

"I came to see you right after returning to the sect," Tang Xin squatted on the shore and said to her with a smile, "How is your training going?"

"So-so..."

Shui Qiu looked down at his palms, seemingly not satisfied with the progress.

"Don't be too eager for quick success," the elder sister advised, "Practice when you should practice, and rest when you should rest. This is the only way to stay in the best condition."

"Hmm," Shui Qiu muttered in response, and then sighed, "Ah, I don't know when I can share the worries of the elders and the Xuanling Sect like my senior sister..."

"Don't be so disappointed. I didn't play a big role," Tang Xin consoled him. "I just participated in a few demon-killing operations, wrote a few reports, saved Su Ling, and explored the cave of a high-level cultivator. That's all... You will definitely play a bigger role than me in the future!"

Shui Qiu listened, and his body gradually drooped down, leaving only his head above the water. He spit out bubbles and muttered.

"I'm sorry, I'm a waste..."

[Current pressure value: 90]

"Well," Tang Xin quickly changed her words, "there is no distinction between high and low jobs! What you do on a daily basis is also very important... What do you do on a daily basis besides practicing?"

"Help Master serve tea, sort out documents, help the headmaster pass messages, go to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall to take on the task of sweeping the floor..."

"Look, aren't these all very important jobs?" Tang Xin said in a high-spirited and passionate tone, "It is precisely because of the silent dedication of people like you that the entire sect can operate normally! If anyone looks down on the work of serving tea, water, sweeping the floor and delivering messages, I will never forgive her!"

Shui Qiu was silent for a while and then spoke slowly.

"Sorry, a loser like me shouldn't come out of the water..."

"Hey, that's not what I meant!"

[Current pressure value: 96]

……

After two failures, Tang Xin finally summed up his experience.

When it comes to "psychological support", silence is better than words.

Sometimes you don’t need too many words, just a silent supportive look can give the other person great psychological comfort.

After figuring this out, she came to where Yirou was practicing.

[Current psychological pressure value: 87. Target: 60]

It looks like the eldest daughter's life isn't easy either. Coming from a wealthy family, she might have to shoulder the task of maintaining and revitalizing the family. You can imagine the pressure.

Don’t say anything, just support her silently!

"Hello, senior sister."

Yirou clasped her fists and bowed as usual, then looked up.

Tang Xin had a blank expression on his face, his arms crossed over his chest, his eyes fixed on her, motionless.

"Uh," Yirou said uncomfortably, "Senior Sister, did I do something wrong..."

The senior sister did not answer.

There was no movement either.

Not even a change in expression.

Angry, definitely angry!

[Current pressure value: 90]

"Senior Sister, did I do anything to make you angry?"

"Senior sister, I must have offended you! I beg for forgiveness!"

"Senior Sister, please let me go! Whatever compensation you ask for, I will do it as long as I can!"

After a while...

[Current pressure value: 99]

Looking at Yirou squatting in the corner and crying bitterly, Tang Xin was confused.

What’s going on…Aren’t I silently supporting her?

Chapter 191: People’s Endurance Has Its Limits

After a series of operations, the eldest sister of Xuanling Sect successfully increased everyone's stress level further.

I just said that I am not suitable to be a comforter...

"Young people tend to think too much," Tang Xin said to himself, "As for the elders... the situation should be much better, right?"

The one who is responsible for the psychological construction of the elders in the sect is the great elder Xuan Miao, who was in charge of the sect's running affairs before the sect leader returned.

This person is very powerful.

From the words of some of the more senior monks in the sect, we know that her greatest strength is her ability to maintain the normal operation of the Xuanling Sect while gaining high support.

It sounds simple, but among all the core elders, only Xuanmiao can achieve such an effect, no one else can.

This also made her position in the sect almost unshakable.

Since he didn't know how to learn, Tang Xin decided to go and see how Elder Xuanmiao completed the task.

In the miscellaneous hall.

"Yeah, I know you've been under a lot of pressure lately," Xuanmiao nodded as he listened to the complaints of the elders of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall. "Now is a difficult period, everyone should try to overcome it... You all know that our headmaster is impatient, and when she encounters problems again, she will probably forget about this annual plan completely."

My goodness, the Great Elder actually spoke ill of the Sect Leader behind his back, and there seems to be discord among the top leaders of Xuanling Sect!

"Everyone, hold on for a while. I'll try to get some benefits... Tang Xin, why are you hiding behind the pillar?"

"I understand, Great Elder," the elder of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall stood up and clasped his fists, saying, "Since you have said so, let us work harder!"

Tang Xin waited until the elders finished their communication before coming up to the chief elder.

"Is that all?" She scratched her head and said, "I told them the same thing, why is it not working at all?"

Xuanmiao also knew that Yu Lingzi asked Tang Xin to comfort the disciples. Looking at her expression, he guessed that she was most likely to return empty-handed.

"It seems that although you have strong management skills, you are still a little lacking in experience," the Great Elder said with a smile, "But it's good this way. Otherwise, if you are really perfect, I think the position of Great Elder will be passed on to you when you reach the Nascent Soul stage."

"What do you mean?"

"No matter if they are disciples or elders, their pressure comes from the tasks set by the headmaster. If the amount of tasks does not decrease, the external pressure will not decrease. That is why people like you and I are needed to start from the inside."

The mysterious story is told in a leisurely manner.

"There are two ways to start from within. One is to give them hope, so that they feel that there is hope for the hard times. The other is to set goals and ambitions for them to enhance their ability to withstand pressure. Simply saying 'thank you for your hard work today' and 'keep working hard' is not the key."

"The key is your words 'The headmaster is impatient' and 'when did you forget'," Tang Xin said thoughtfully, "I see. You give everyone something to look forward to, but you don't tell us the exact time... The Great Elder is really amazing."

"That's right," the elder said with a smile, looking like a teachable kid. "You should also study these management methods carefully. If you have similar questions in the future, feel free to ask."

The chief disciple is to be trained with the goal of becoming the most core member of the sect. At this time, she should be allowed to experience more and think about problems so that she can better manage the sect in the future.

"But," Tang Xin thought again, "young people nowadays are very cunning, and many of them don't accept the idea of ​​quenching thirst by wishing for something..."

After all, the elder monks have lived in the sect for decades, or even longer, and they hold high positions, so they are familiar with this kind of pressure. Even if they are dissatisfied, they will not take any drastic actions... People are no longer free to do what they want when they reach middle age.

But it is different for the disciples. If you don’t tell them whether the master will run away from home tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, they will just think you are fooling them.

"It seems," said the Xuanling Sect's eldest sister in a deep voice, "we can only start by enhancing their ability to withstand pressure..."

……

In the martial arts training ground, a group of disciples are practicing hard.

"Have you heard that Senior Sister Tang is looking for her own disciple to talk alone." "I don't know what they talked about." "It is said that everyone who talks to her will become dazed..."

When Tang Xin was communicating with his direct disciples, he did not hide his words from others. In addition, the atmosphere in the sect had been rather dull recently, with no interesting topics, so the matter spread quickly.

I originally thought that the situation would improve if the chief senior sister returned to the sect. Maybe there was a very small chance that she could represent all the disciples and express her "opinions" to the headmaster...

Unfortunately, it seemed that I was just overthinking. After Sister Tang came back, she immediately got down to work.

Iron Man indeed! She just came back from outside without even taking a break. Could it be that the headmaster used her as a benchmark to set the amount of tasks for everyone?

"Disciples of the martial arts training ground," Tang Xin came to the training ground and said in a voice loud enough for everyone to hear, "Stop for a moment. I have something to say."
