The Wealth Sect may have a common name, but it is one of the most powerful martial forces in the Commercial Republic. They believe in the extreme philosophy that "money can make even the devil work for you," using wealth as a weapon to recruit world-class experts and even influence the power structures of various nations.
Hundreds of years ago, major merchant guilds in the Commercial Republic began funding martial artists to protect cargo and sea routes. As business expanded, these warriors became more than just guardsβthey became a true martial power. Eventually, the wealthy Kong family unified these groups to establish the Wealth Sect, moving forward with plutocracy as their "Dao," dominating martial transactions.
Today, the Wealth Sect is no longer just a martial sect; it is a transcendent entity that uses financial power as a weapon, controlling the resources of major martial factions. They absorb martial arts from across the globe; whether you are a righteous expert, a demonic sect defector, or a desperate outlaw, anyone willing to pledge loyalty to money can join. Even government officials and wealthy merchants from various nations secretly cooperate with the Wealth Sect to manipulate markets and politics.
The current Master, Kong Fang, is not only a martial grandmaster but also one of the wealthiest people in the Commercial Republic. His "Golden Money Dart Style" is supernatural, merging hidden weapons with financial influence to make the Wealth Sect the most difficult faction to deal with in the martial world. His organization is divided into three major departments, controlling over half of the republic's finances, transactions, and intelligence.
"Wealth can suppress enemies; a thousand pieces of gold can conquer without a fight."
